Finally, some good f*cking content
Name: Donatello Murasaki Tang Shen Hamato
Nickname(s): Donnie, Don, ‘Tello, Murasaki, 知識の神 (Chishiki no Kami-Deity of Knowledge), Experiment 051 (Baron Draxum/Baxter Stockman)
Age: 16 yo.
Gender/sexuality: Demiboy/Demisexual Homoromantic
Love Interest: Alopex (Cis Male)
Species: Spiny Softshell Turtle
Build: Tall and lanky, still having broad shoulders and strong legs-6’3”
Personality: INTJ, perceives the world as a puzzle for him to solve, hates being told he’s wrong or useless, loves using his mind to impress and intimidate others
Info:
Being hatched and genetically modified first of the turtles, Donnie is the oldest and can be prone to wanting control.
He was created specifically for ordering others around, which explains his tall frame and permanent deadpan look on his face.
During his time in the lab, Donnie was trained in Karate, Kung fu, Tai chi, but not Ninjutsu.
He was fed only rice gruel, making him and the other experiments terrifyingly skinny.
The medical staff at TCRI realized that Donnie was too able-minded with sight, so they decided to weaken him by brutally injuring one eye repeatedly until he could no longer see in it.
This caused Donnie to just stumble around the lab while practicing martial arts, until he could do every technique with his good eye closed.
The medical staff’s plan had backfired, so they isolated him until he was rescued by Splinter.
His body type is tall, thin and intimidating, causing him to loom over his friends and family like a tall building.
He has broad shoulders and a prominent chest, along with thick curves around his back thighs and calves.
His arms are relatively weak, so he has trains them a lot so he can fight better with his staff.
His legs are really strong, so he could probably kick Leo through the wall of a f*ckin’ subway car if he tried hard enough.
His mystic powers relate to the earth and stabilization of the mind.
Basically, ATLA earthbending style and closed-eye combat.
The explanation to his power is that he closes his eyes and feels his surroundings with enhanced senses, using tactility to find out the best way to fight without hurting himself too much.
His earth control is really powerful, he’s able to bring up small mountains from some tough ground in order to surprise the enemy.
Donnie and his brothers sometimes combine elements to create stuff like geysers, typhoons, and mini active volcanoes.
Extra:
Cannot control himself around sweets (April: tf did my cupcake go Donnie: Mmf…so good~ April: Donnie!! Donnie: Eep!)
Has a little turtle robot named Terra, short for Tortuga.
Watches anime with Leo
Actually hates Leo with burning passion, oldest and youngest energy
Hatsune Miku fan and owns a owns a hoodie modeled after her outfit
As soon as Leo turns fifteen, he immediately grows to the same height as Donnie within a few months (Mutant genes are weird I guess).
I imagine it would happen like this:
Leo: *going on a trip to Japan* Bye Donnie!!
Donnie: Bye, Tiny.
(Months later)
Leo: *comes back* Hey Don.
Donnie: WTF!? TI-HOW ARE YOU NOT SMALL!? WHAT WAS KARAI FEEDING YOU THERE!?
Leo: *just smirks*

Considering the surprising amount of people wanting to see my silly little oc, I’ve decided to go ahead and share her here!
This is Goya, a Shoebill mutant that lives with the turtles and splinter.
Close-ups + ramblings under cut,
So first off, I have to say I’m kind of proud of how She turned out in general. I was aiming for something similar to the 03 artstyle, and I think I got pretty close. I was pretty proud of the coloring while drawing it, up until I exported it onto my phone. That was when I’d realized that it appears different on other devices. ^^,
But anyways, more about Goya!
As said above, she lives with the turtles, although she was mutated separately. This doesn’t make her any less family, but does make her a couple years younger than her brothers.
Goya was first found stumbling around, clueless and jumping at every little thing she didn’t recognize. She‘s definitely grown since then, no longer looking at things with fear, but rather with curiosity and open-mindedness. She still doesn’t speak, but that’s just how she is.
She loves heights and climbing, which is often assisted by the use of her wings. Downside is, she can’t fly. She can, however, glide and flutter her wings to make her lighter.
And yet, despite her clipped wings, Goya’s number one dream is to one day be able to fly.
This feeds into Goya‘s love of exploring. On her first night topside she could not stay still. Combine that with the utter maze that is New York and you have a recipe for hijinks- and some action sprinkled in, as per the genre.
I have so many thoughts about her in my brain, and I’m sorry if none of this seems coherent! She‘s a joy and I love her.
But if you’re curious, shoot an ask my way!

Incoming TMNT rant:
One thing that bugs me is that there were, in fact, famous female painters during the Renaissance, even though they weren’t as famous as their male counterparts.
I get that with Venus the lack of good internet at the time of her creation meant that they couldn’t find out about said painters. And with Jennika she wasn’t initially intended to become a mutant turtle.
But it still bugs the heck out of me that none of these amazing painters’ names were used.
Like Artemisia Gentileschi, who was a Baroque painter who lived between 1593 and 1653. She was also a prominent feminist scholar and artist. Her paintings have become immensely valuable, fetching millions of dollars today. Her work is so stunning that the National Gallery in London staged a blockbuster exhibition of her work in 2020, the first by a single female artist.
While many Renaissance artists tended to portray males with strong masculine figures, Gentileschi remained committed to women’s empowerment. Her works often featured strong women taking on male villains and revealing double meanings. It is difficult to know whether her art was influenced by her personal experiences. However, it is likely that her influence on art history was profound. Artemisia Gentileschi was one of the first female artists to create a distinctly female style.
Or Elisabetta Sirani, an Italian painter who depicted powerful women in history. She was particularly interested in depicting the strength and intelligence of women, especially those who suffered from male aggression. Her portraits of the biblical heroine Judith, a woman who was tempted by Satan, are also famous. In her paintings, women are shown overcoming their weaknesses and achieving triumph in the face of male aggression.
Elisabetta Sirani’s work was influenced by her experiences in the art world. She was one of the first female painters in Italy, and her artistic talent is immense. At 27, she was already a prolific artist and founded the first Academy of female painters in Europe. Born to Giovanni Andrea Sirani and Margherita Sirani, Elisabetta was the daughter of a renowned painter, Giovanni Andrea. She was the fourth child of Giovanni Andrea and Margherita Sirani, and spent her youth in her father’s art studio.
Personally out of all the female Renaissance painters I’ve found, these two stick out to me as particularly deserving.
Perhaps it could be heavily implied that they are counterparts to Jennika and Venus, but I’d really at some point would love to see sister turtles in either a Rise season 3 or some future iteration of the TMNT with the names of female Renaissance painters to match the theme of the names of the brother turtles.
