Template:CharacterTitoism, full name Titoismball, is a communist with capitalist features and a culturally centrist ideology, inhabiting the center-high, center-right area of the AuthLeft section of the Political Compass. He believes in the elimination of ethnic and religious identity in favor of a totally unified Yugoslav ethnic group and socio-religious standards. He works with both Neoconservativeball and Marxist-Leninistball, but neither are happy about it.
Titoismball (based off of Josip Broz Tito's post 1948 economic policies) was born to Social Democracy in the late 19th century but later adopted by Marxism-Leninism. After being adopted by Marxism-Leninism Titoism adopted more left wing ideas and at first was barely distinguished from Marxism-Leninism however after 1948 Titoism became more moderate again although remained authoritarian and still somewhat further left than Social Democracy. He is widely considered to be the most successful form of Market-Socialism.
Stylistic Notes
- Titoism should always be scarred, as in the infobox, to symbolize the policy of bratstvo i jedinstvo in attempt to hold the Balkan rivals together. These scars can be open, one panel at a time, to reveal a ex-Yugo flagball underneath, especially a nationalist movement flag (see below).
- Titoism is a heavy smoker and should be identified as such with a cigarette or, especially in the company of Western communists, a cigar.
- Optionally, Titoism's right eye can have an eyepatch. This can also be a reference to him being forged after World War II. He can also wear Tito's cap and glasses.
- Titoism is afflicted with intermittent bouts of schizophrenia, during which he may curse and praise insane concepts like human rights and independence for the Yugo states... truly insane.
- Despite this, he should still be a competent and calculating fighter given his feats against Fascism and ability to work with both the Capitalist and Communist bloc. The latter, however, may be part of his schizophrenia.
- Titoism speaks Serbo-Croatian and English. If you know any, use common words (e.g., dobar dan, brate, etc.) or words that have a clear English equivalent (e.g., komunizam, specijalna policija, etc.) He can also use the Cyrillic alphabet for stylistic effect.
How to draw
Drawing Titoism is fairly simple:
- Draw a ball
- Draw a line in a deep shade of blue (#0005cd) sectioning off the top third of the ball, white (#ffffff) for the middle, and red (#ff0000) for the bottom.
- Fill all thirds with their respective colors.
- Draw a star with red (#ff0000) and give it a thin outline of yellow (#fff301). Make sure the star's top lateral arms are in the white, not the blue!
- Draw the eyes and fill in with white (#ffffff).
- Around the eyes, draw scars from stitches. At least one stitch scar should be below his right eye.
- To make a cigarette, use (#f2b600) for the filter with a black (#000000) outline so that the white (#ffffff) section of the cigarette flows into it. Use orange (#ff8a00) for the cigarette cherry and grey (#838383) for the smoke.
- Turn the smoke's transparency down to ~40%, and you're done!
