Description Seeing the great Monsters U OC that :iconCartuneslover: created: www.deviantart.com/art/Monster… inspired me to create my own.

Meet Jennifer "Jenny" Lemmingworth. I had actually finished her design weeks ago, but it took me awhile to come up with a name and her background. I know, I know, her last name is odd, but when I was trying to think of a last name for her, the word just popped into my head and I liked the sound of it. Besides, many of the other monsters have somewhat unusual sounding surnames so I figured it'd be perfect in this universe. Now a little about her:


Jenny is the daughter of wealthy monster socialites, Mr. and Mrs. Lemmingworth. Her mother and father had hoped that their daughter would become a scarer like themselves so naturally, they decided Monsters University was the perfect campus for their daughter to sharpen her scaring abilities. 

Unknown to them, for now, Jenny wasn't interested in being a scarer. She didn't consider herself to be "scary enough" for it. Besides, she was also very shy and somewhat easily spooked and knew she wouldn't be able to handle the danger and pressure of a scaring career. Still, she did enroll in some scaring classes to please her parents and was surprised to find she could be somewhat scary if she tried hard enough.

Despite all this, Jenny's real interest actually lies in learning and acquiring knowledge of the human world. Because of this, she also enrolled in the class for door technology to learn how to create the doors that provide access to the human world as well as classes in the study of humans and their world. Her parents haven't objected to this, as they figured it would enable her to be a better scarer. 

While attending Monsters U, Jenny ran into the Oozma Kappa fraternity and was quick to befriend them as she was glad to meet some monsters who weren't so competitive like the ones of the ROR fraternity. She especially like hanging out with brothers Teri and Terri and Art. Unknowingly to Jenny, she eventually acquired the interest of Randall "Randy" Boggs, but he's kept this to himself so far.

Jenny hopes to one day be an expert in the study of the human world and its inhabitants and to eventually be courageous enough to journey into that strange world. She would eventually end up working in Monsters Inc....but that's another story.

Jenny can be described as shy, quiet, and easily startled at times(Kinda like a monster version of Fluttershy). She can also be a bit messy as evident by the "unkempt" look of her hair/fur. When she's frightened or angry, her hair and fur will poof out, making her look bigger and threatening(Like what a cat does). Her tail has a stinger which contains poison similar to the kind toxic glow urchins posses. It's not lethal, but like the urchins, it will cause the stung area to swell to an enormous size. Jenny can be a bit clumsy when handling her stinger, and many times has accidently stung unfortunate passerby, especially when they scare her by accident. Sometimes she'll wear a protective case around it so she won't accidently sting others.

Jenny's design was based on Dean Hardscrabble and her coloring was inspired by the PNK Sorority members(The cheerleader looking monsters). She was actually going to have four tentacle arms, but it proved to be a bit much for her design as well as a hindrance to draw. I plan to eventually do some sketches showing her when she finally joined Monsters Inc. 


So..yeah, hope you like her.^^

I'm glad to see that my own OC has inspired you to make this. And don't worry, Lemmingworth sounds COMPLETELY MU/MI-istic. Like Wazowski, Boggs, Squibbes, and especially Hardscrabble.


Her design is very interesting and very original as the use of hair doesn't exactly make her too 'human-like' as I've seen with most MU OCs, and the fact that she's a serpentine monster is a double plus. Her abilities are that very interesting as to what they are used as an advantage, and I especially like her interests. Journeying into the human world seems much more exciting than merely scaring children, that kind of job will benefit and provide those who want to be Scarers with a bigger knowledge of what to expect when the unexpected happens.


I'm thoroughly in the fact that Randall holds a secret crush on her, as I feel terrible for his outcome in both MU and, admit it, MI and I think your OC could be his little ray on sunshine...because the whole reason he was pressured into darkness.


Great job on this.

Yep, once I saw Laura I thought: "Yep! Gonna make one too!"^^


Heh, heh, yeah, in the end I figured  Jenny's surname would actually be perfect. It really amuses me the surnames the monsters have. In a way it almost makes them seem human...humans with fur, claws, tentacles, and multiple heads that is.XD


I'm glad you find Jenny's design original. I know a lot of people tend to make those naga/snake people kind of characters, so that's why I gave her a head similar to Hardscrabble, gave her fur, and gave her tentacles for arms. I loved Hardscrabble's design so while she has centipede feet I just thought to give Jenny a serpentine body. Besides, we haven't really seen any serpent like monsters(Slugs ones are probably the closest the movie's come). The fur on her torso was inspired by the PNK monsters. I loved how their natural fur resembled skirts and leg warmers so I thought I'd do something similar with Jenny.


The idea for her interests kinda just started as a "door maker" and from there the idea started to "evolve" so to speak. Plus, I thought it made Jenny a little more unique in actually wanting to learn about humans and their world instead of just trying to be a scarer like I'm sure a lot of Monster U/Inc. Oc's are(No offense to Laura ^^). She has a fascination with them but is also a bit creeped out by them(Like how I am with spiders XD). In the future, she'd probably be thrilled after the events of Monsters Inc. in seeing that children are not toxic and can get to interact with them.


I'm very glad that you like the fact that Randall has a crush on her. I know some people can get a bit testy with Oc's having a crush on a major character or vice versa. It just made sense to me since Randall and Jenny are both reptilian monsters(And also because Jenny originally had an extra pair of tentacles). Despite how terrible Randall was in Monsters Inc. it was a sad to see in Monsters U that he was actually a pretty sweet, lovable nerdy guy before all that. Makes you wonder what it would've been like if he hadn't changed. I guess the desire to being the best just took over him. What peer pressure can do. 


Thanks so much for your kind comment!
