What Manner of Creature are You?
Laws of the Scribe
Section i. General Rules
I.I As always: donโt be an ass, softblock if breaking a mutual follow ( or just block, I know sometimes it can get confusing ), donโt assume my beliefs align with those of the musesโ, donโt use me as meme resource, and if there is something you are ever unclear on - whether in reference to myself, the blog, or the muses - please just ask.
I.II So what can you expect? This is a literate, non-fandom affiliated, multiverse-friendly multi-muse. Be aware the content and the roster is varied. Everything here is a WIP and always changing! The blog itself is private and selective, but is also borderline FRIENDS-ONLY due to past experiences in the RPC. This is not to dissuade new interactions ( I'm always accepting them ), however, for my comfort, I prefer to be more lowkey.
I.III I hold COMMUNICATION in high regard. If I have something I need to talk about with a partner, I will tell them; if I have questions, I will certainly ask them. Frankly, at this point in the game, I expect the same decency in return. I have no time to spend trying to discern vague messages or passive commentary. If there is something I've done, or something you need to tell me directly, JUST TELL ME. I promise you, we can discuss it like adults, complaints or otherwise.
I.IV Due to my academic lifestyle and recurrent mental health symptoms, the activity on this blog is rather low and has a reliance on whatever is in the queue. I only ask you remain patient with me and to understand, like with anyone else here, this is simply a hobby and something I do to unwind from the stressors of my offline world; I will write whatever I like, if and whenever I happen to have the time to do so. If it comes to a point I need to take a break for whatever reason, I will make a post about it.
I.V I DO NOT PARTICIPATE IN DRAMA AND I DO NOT WANT TO SEE IT ; this meaning, I will not be reblogging or engaging in callouts, I will not willingly insert myself into any of it that crosses my dash, and outside of my own personal strife which would impede my activity, I will not be posting about it. I don't want it anywhere near me. If โ by chance โ you notice I am interacting with someone you believe may be a problem, approach me in private so I can be made aware.
I.VI This is your one forewarning that this blog is 21+ ; while not with a focus on sexually explicit content, I do write references to religiosity, mental health, motifs of death, abuse, and the like. Triggers are tagged accordingly, though I am human and will sometimes miss specific things.
I.VII PLEASE NOTE : I ONLY HAVE ACCESS TO THE BETA EDITOR ; THIS WILL IMPACT MY RESPONSES IF YOU CHOOSE TO USE THE LEGACY.

Section ii. Interactions
II.I Given the notification system is not the best ( I hardly ever get notifs on my phone anymore ), I don't mind if you mention you replied to something or if you check to see if an ask got through. You're also more than welcome to ask about the status of a prompt or response if a period of time has passed. But again, I only ever ask for patience.
II.II I want to keep my lists clean and my experience in the RPC as stress-free as possible. For this reason, I tend to do a semi-monthly purge of non-interacting persons.
II.III I typically use prose and longer responses WITHOUT the use of icons. Although I prefer to write lengthy threads, I never want my partners to feel obligated to match the length or style! In tandem to this, I'm very much NOT PICKY about my partner's style ( their graphics, their icons, their writing, etc. ). Typically, all I generally look for is the potential for our preferred styles to mesh or for a foreseeable way the muses themselves may mesh well together.
II.IV I accept both prompted and unprompted things ; as well as plotted or unplotted things. However, given the nature of the blog, I usually like to spitball ideas and feel things out with the other Mun. I am also open to interacting with fandoms or settings I am unfamiliar with! I wonโt be afraid of exploring the topic so long as youโre not afraid of helping me understand what to expect when interacting with your muse.
II.V I have a strong preference for pre-established settings ( given discussion, of course ). Any manner of relationship is welcome on this blog, just be aware some muses are more inclined to be friendly or open-minded than others. And as usual, I prefer to romantically ship my characters with chemistry both IC &. OOC.
II.VI I would say the BEST WAY to interact with me ( if you don't feel inclined to directly reach out for plotting ) is by sending a meme and turning it into a thread. That said, none of the memes I post have an experiation date ; you're welcome to send any of them, at any time, and however many you like! Likewise, I frequently post Inbox Calls where I will send you things!
II.VII As an aside to the above, you generally DON'T have to ask before continuing an ask into a thread! Just go for it!
II.VIII I strongly encourage you to CHOOSE A MUSE when seeking interaction. I don't care if it's between two muses or something, but I don't accept the whole, "anyone is fine!" response. If you don't specify, I MAY IGNORE YOUR PROMPTS.
II.IX I definitely normalize dropping asks and threads, whether because the mun isn't sure how to reply or you simply need to refresh / cut back on your drafts. The only stipulation here is that if you want to drop one of our threads, just give me a heads-up so I can untrack it!

Section iii. Other
III.I A word on the roster: I have a very clearly eclectic taste in muses. Please don't let this deter you! I know people may think it's cluttered or hard to keep up with, but I truly love all my muses, each in their own way, even if my "fixation" is only on a few of them at a time.
III.II My primary focus will ALWAYS be on my original characters or mythos muses. You're obviously welcome to ask for my canon characters, but they're the most fickle of my roster so responses for them may not always be as quick to come as the others! As an aside, my portrayal of these canon muses is meant to be fun FOR ME ; while I abide by their personalities, or characteristics, they will likely be otherwise divergent.
III.III Although it doesn't really impact much other than specialty posts ( headcanons/metas, starter calls, or other instances ), I do tend to favor some muses over others at times! While I encourage you to indulge me and share in the love of a particular muse, it's not at all necessary.
III.IV While it's nice to know you โ as a prospective follower or long-time mutual โ are here for at least one of my muses ... I'm not sure I'm comfortable with that. By all means, play favorites with my roster, but I would like to see my mutuals engage with more than one character ( if possible ) so I know there's lasting interest.
III.V Unfortunately, not everyone has a completed bio page or verses page. But as I said, if there's something you need to know or want me to clarify, just ask. And if there's a verse you feel like proposing, even if it's unlisted anywhere, feel free! Chances are high that you can get me invested in a new fandom or AU!
III.VI My messages and asks are always open to mutuals. The anon function, though, is PERMANENTLY disabled. And while I do have a discord, I only pass it along to those looking for FRIENDSHIP. I even sometimes prefer to host threads there, as overall, it's just easier.
III.VII I will write this here purely out of courtesy to others: I enjoy engagement ( like anyone ) with my posts and my muses, but mostly I enjoy making OOC connections. When I talk to people, when I get comfortable with them, I become excitable and become attached to our developing plots. I am very much the type of partner that will send you random ideas/musings/aesthetics at any hour of the day if I stumble across them. If you are fine with this, we'll get along. If this is not your cup of tea, and we are mutuals, SIMPLY SAY SO as I never want to seem like "too much".
III.VIII Graphics are accredited to the lovely ( & very patient ) Stitch!

Section i. Original Characters
Claudius Niadh Jr. | 42 | Male ( He/Him )
You remember the old phrase: LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON which seems rather apt here ( in many ways ). And this, you realize, makes for some certain tragedy ( perhaps an inevitable one ). For you hear how preachers always forewarn of demons, but what is one to do when the you find the true demon came from within the home? From the man who, not only gave you your blood, but looked back in the mirror? Your father โ if you could call him so โ destroyed your family, plucked his way through the corpses to hold his hand to you and offer POWER EVERLASTING. But now, with him slain by your hand, you must relearn the way to be a man rather than a monster.

Kaen Rolav | 220s | AFAB-NonBinary ( They/Them )
This is a story of a sweet creature who refuses to allow cruelty to conquer them. You understand that sometimes we lose our way, and โ at times โ mistakes ( even those most terrible ) will happen. But can they be forgiven? This becomes less a tale of fighting demons and instead one of fighting the self ; there is a great, tremendous sorrow here which threatens a light just at the brink of something wonderful. You will find, in these pages, a godling striving for purpose, aching for meaning, yearning for a way to stand before their godly father and reclaim their place beside him ( or force their way back onto the throne ).

Section i. Basics
Name: Namyr.Birthdate: TBA.Age: Seems somewhere in his 30s ( approx. 33 ) ; A rumor tells he might well be IMMORTAL.Gender || Pronouns: Male โ He || Him.Orientation: As a pious man, he doesnโt much look towards advances of any kind, nor does he seem altogether favorable of them ; Demisexual & demiromantic, no gender preference.
Species: VERSE DEPENDENT โ Dark Elf.Occupation: High Priest of an exiled coven ( a foreperson of knowledge & magic, both ; a trusted & esteemed member in the community ) ; A magus in the dark arts.Faceclaim? None.

Section ii. Appearance
Height: 7'0''.Build: Strong, sturdy and the least bit burly ; a broad chest and large shoulders complimented by a narrower waist and angular, wizened features found in an eerily kind face.Eyes: Fire-like and glowing, an orange-amber gleam in the pits of black sclera.Hair: Silver, thick and long ; oftentimes pulled into a large, full braid that hangs heavily down all the way to the small of his back ( however, a few flyaway strands of hair always happen to fall over his brow ) ; a short beard, where the hair is also neatly knotted together.Complexion: Ebony ; per his heritage, his flesh is as dark as can be.
Markings: Many, many scars along his back from his daily practice of self-flagellation ; like most elves, he has inherited whirling, shimmering markings along his skin, however theyโre only really visible ( they glow ) when he uses his magic or stands in the moonlight.Distinguishing trait(s): Claws and sharp teeth, as well as long, pointed ears ; a tail where the original head was cut off and replaced by a more dangerous metal prosthetic ; a trail of short spines along his back and following his forearms.Apparel: Often dons himself in a pale, silvery robe-like vestment with blackened trim and embezzlements / adornments ; slung โround the shoulders is a fine, royal purple silk sash ; per his place as High Priest, he wears a ritualistic eye-covering that is part-cloth and part-metal ( a hued, blinding veil wrapped โround the eyes and slightly overhanging the face, but tied with baubles that dance against the cheeks ).Accessories: When he is in private and able to remove his eye-covering, Namyr wears glasses ; there are simple metal rings studded along his fingers.

Section iii. Personality
Overall: As a religious figure who oversees many of the sacred, spiritual dealings in the coven ( even those more gruesome to the outsiderโs perspective ), Namyr keeps himself - much as those in the coven - very much in line. He is nothing if not entirely forthcoming and respectful towards others, and carries himself with an air of mystique and command quite unlike his underlings. He has a certain infectious calm to him ; an understanding reverence of things ( even other creatures ). Although he is wary of outsiders, he is still polite, generous, and altogether rather chivalrous and formal to many.Positives: Per his teachings, Namyr believes in acceptance and maintains a ( mostly ) open mind when it comes to newcomers ; is cited as being self-assured and extremely competent ; heโs been called charming quite a few times ; he is vastly loyal and protective ( after all, he will be the first to tell you his place as a priest is to serve & guide ), most especially over his small coven, it is safe to assume he would go to any lengths to keep his people safe ; he believes in the inherent beauty of all things ( death and the immortal soul especially ).Negatives: Namyr will NOT hesitate to retaliate with violence if he believes it is warranted ( read as: he will not start a situation but he will end it ) ; though not an aggressor and not easily agitated, Namyr is a passionate, obsessive and possessive sortโฆ Especially with people he finds an attachment to.
Alignment: Lawful - Evil.Myers - Briggs: INTP.Major Arcana: The Moon ( Upright ), The Hierophant ( Upright ).Violent? When necessary.Smokes || Drinks || Drugs: Never || Rarely || Never.Mental: N/A.

Section vi. Biography
Note: This section is pending, until then here are some prevalent bits of information for Namyr's character:โ His clan is, essentially, a coven of death-worshipers who deify the idea of death, and are vastly misunderstood.
โ He's considered a high-priest ; that is, someone who dictates and oversees spiritual tasks through the community ( ie: leading "silent sermons" and the like ) ; for this reason, he's got a respectable position and can oft' boast of pulling rank or power with others ; as such, he's oft' regarded as having a pleasant voice.
โ Heโs abstained from most earthly pleasures ( and likewise with other priests, it's a common practice that's supposed to adhere one to an "anointed, clear path" )
He practices self-flagellation every dusk ; for this reason, he has deep scars over his back.
โ He refers to EVERYONE as โbrotherโ, no matter their sex/gender ; for outsiders, it takes on a more derogatory connotation
His tail is actually like a scorpionโs, topped by a poison barb which was severed upon his exile many moons ago ; it was since replaced by a metal prosthetic.
โ Because he wears his eye-covering pretty much all day, he has had to accustom himself to navigating the community whilst being blinded, and heโs gotten exceptionally good at it! Heโs able to travel the small town easily and even perform tasks such as cooking without much hassle ; even without his sight, he can โreadโ people ( sense them, if you will ) by getting in touch with their spirit as he talks to them, heโll oftโ refer to them in celestial terms ( a sorrowful star, for instance, or a spritely sun ).
โ To add to the above, and explain why he does this, he enjoys astronomy.
โ I would consider him less a "heretic" ( as his original clan would lead you to believe ) and more a bit of a zealot who bastardized his clan's beliefs, but that's just me.

Verse II: Secondary ( Canon | The Dark Crystal )
Once a member of the secluded desert-dwelling Dousan clan, Namyr and his coven were forcibly EXILED to the outlands of the Crystal Sea, to the farthest and most uncharted reaches to prevent the ( misunderstood ) dogma of the death-worshiping whispers to further pervert the sacred practices of the main clan. Now far removed from the other Dousan, Namyr stands alongside but only a few of those who follow the same strange path as he. As their High Priest, as one of the pillars of the new-formed coven, Namyr must work to keep his coven not only ALIVE but perfectly secret. For there are tellings in the song of Thra that Skarith and its Gelfling are in grave danger. And if he cannot convince his once-Maudra to see beyond his preachings and practices, then he may never be able to mend the broken peace and help to save ( nor unify ) their clan.


Section i. Basics
Name: Kadai.Birthdate: November 4th.Age: Twenty-Two ( 22 ).Gender || Pronouns: Female โ She || Her.Orientation: Much more open to sexual encounters than romantic ones ; she has no gender preferences either way ( known for having trysts & one night stands ).

Species: VERSE DEPENDENT โ Gelfling ; Sifan/Dousan halfling.Occupation: Marauder & Thief ; An intended Samaudren successor following the steps of her father once the war ends ( if it ever does ).Faceclaim? None.

Section ii. Appearance
Height: 3'0'' ( 5'0'' in her secondary verse ).Build: Athletic, and slender ; a smaller, more lithe torso complimented by larger hips and a strong constitution.Eyes: Ruby.Hair: Coarse and thick, colored auburn ; head is shaved close 'round on both sides, leaving a blooming crest of feathered, frazzled hair to be sported from the scalp, slightly overhanging the face.Complexion: Deep blue-indigo, tending towards a shimmery emerald complexion 'round the cheeks, overtop the ears, across the shoulders, down the backside and over the extremeties.
Markings: Like several Dousan looking to tell a story, Kadai sought to mark her face with tattoos, painting her dark flesh with the rare ink-color of silver-white.Distinguishing trait(s): Small fangs and claws, a chipped ear and bisected tongue, a lash-like, hooked tail, and various scars she wears with pride ( a most noticeable one running along the bridge of her nose ).Apparel: Swathes of dark hues typically ( blacks, violets, blues ) , complimented by crimson sashes and a hooded cowl ; adorned in a customary tunic, a high-necked shirt and leggings.Accessories: Dangling ear-piercings, a nose-ring, many bangles on the wrists and ankles, oft' wears rings ; a single gilded gemstone imprinted into the center of her brow ; Kadai also has a bone-mask not so very unlike the Hunter of bloody rumor.

Section iii. Personality
Overall: Kadai is, above all things, a DECEIVER ; most cases, she is out for personal gain and little else ( so long as someone has value to her, theyโre safe ). She has little qualms with hurting someone if it suits her needs and her ends. Sheโs quite a wordsmith, able to put up a believable air of being trustworthy. For this reason, she comes across as personable as much as dangerous, boasting of many connections throughout Skarith. Charming, competent, and confident, Kadai is spirited and willful with a vibrant tenacity and allure. She approaches life with a no holds barred mindset ; with a no roots policy ; she lives fast and loose showing no signs of stopping anytime soon.Positives: Sensual and sassy, thereโs never a dull moment with her around ; noted for being clever and quick-witted ; self-assured, extroverted, performs well under pressure.Negatives: You could very well say Kadai is disingenuous, to others as much as herself, she puts on airs so much of the time itโs hard to say who she is underneath it all ; sheโs despondent and jaded, being a halfling sheโs often discredited and faced with displeasure from most she meets - for this, sheโs become entirely closed off, putting up walls between herself and anyone else, making real friendship and real trust a rare commodity. Unsurprisingly, Kadai always has an undertone of yearning and loneliness, though for what, she doesnโt quite know.

Our Story Continues ...
Verse I: Main ( Canon | The Dark Crystal )
Born of two clans - the sand and the sea - Kadai is no stranger to the unsightly ways of the Gelfling. With such diluted, muddled blood, who is she to contend with those who are pure and strong? But she is fierce and she is fouled, just the same ; a heart that burns with a fire both wild and reckless. With little care for those around her ( or for her own life ) , Kadai follows the signs and must learn who she is before she destroys herself in the process ; a journey of self-discovery and self-destruction amid an unwinnable war, Kadai takes no sides and instead makes a bargain with Death, sealing her irredeemable place in the cycle of Fate.
Verse II: Secondary ( Fandomless | Fantasy )
Being a halfling is an unpleasant thing, even for an elf ; makes life rather lonely and difficult when you can't seem to fit in with either clan ( or any of the other clans for that matter ). Noted for her conniving ways as much as her rare performances of dancing by fire, Kadai is has certainly made a name for herself. A mercenary, a marauder ; pay her good enough, and she'll do all the nitty-gritty little things you may be too scared to do, no questions asked. Just be careful to keep hold of your pretties when she's around, she's got no qualms about stealing from her employers every now and then. If you're especially lucky, though, you might earn yourself a neat new traveling party member!
Verse III: Trigun:Stampede ( Canon | Ties in with Kaen, Sloan & Verona )
Born and raised in the far-north town of "Wellspring", Kadai was well-known for being a con-artist and troublemaker ; always up to something. She didn't get the memo that - in this town - one ought to keep their head down and stop asking questions. Having stepped out of line one too many times, Kadai is called into conference with the mayor, Pandora, and his partner, the elusive matriarch, Verona. There were rumors this woman is not as she seems, but seeing her in person... Is whole other demon. Literally. Faced with the reality of being executed for her foolishness, Kadai quickly proclaims she'll makes a bargain with Verona instead. In exchange for the freedom to roam as she likes outside of Wellspring, Kadai must bring Verona her share of flesh. By whatever means necessary. For this, Kadai now lives with a cool million double-dollar bounty on her head, known as "The Carrion".

Name: Rek'yr.Birthdate: October 20th.Age: Twenty-Six ( 26 ).Gender || Pronouns: Male โ He || Him.Orientation: Panromatic || Gray-Asexual.Species: Gelfling, specifically a memeber of the Dousan clan.
Occupation: Marauder & Thief ( Former ) โ Firedancer & Sandmaster of the Southern Xeric ; Leaves his esteemed post if only to eventually seek taking up a place in the Resistance itself, perhaps to further prove himself of use to the cause.Faceclaim? Self.

Section ii. Appearance
Height: 3'3''.Build: Lithe though toned with muscle throughout an athletic frame ; somewhat broad of chest and shoulder ; has strong, calloused hands that have both known much of tireless work in the desert ; angular, hardened facial features ; he is deemed RATHER HANDSOME by other Dousan, if that should count for something.Eyes: Amber-Gold.Hair: Coarse and thick, slightly wavy, colored a dark brown-black hue, interspersed with a few threads of white ; hung in several smaller braids over the shoulders and a high tail knotted atop the head.Complexion: Olive-sand colored, tending towards swathes of blueish green โround the mouth and nose, โcross the cheeks and over the brows and shoulders.
Markings: Rekโyr endured the arduous and painful tattooing process of his clan to acquire those present on his face ; streaks of white-silver ink, struck โcross the cheekbones and overtop the corners of the brows. Tattoos are SYMBOLIC , indicative of some kind of story. Rekโyrโs are no different, a representation of atonement, the alighted and corrected path set forth ahead ; he also has several more โneath his clothing, creating intricate but purposeful linework sprawling โcross the collar and down over the forearms and torso.Distinguishing trait(s): None.Apparel: Swathes of maroon, deep blue and purple ; customary tunic, clothed vambraces / greaves, and well-worn cloak adorn his person, later transitioning into increments of armored vestments for protection.Accessories: Bones hang tangled in the hair and so adorn the person in similar fashion with PRIDE , Death is an emblem of transformation and is thus symbolically worn in reverence.

Section iii. Personality
Overall: Important is it to understand that Rekโyr has a PAST , one that often conflicts with his future. Although he has done much to repent in the eyes of his clan, and although he has found union with Thra, he has not yet found union within himself ; the two facets, the dark and the light, are still at odds and make the way forward much more difficult than heโd like. And however much he would profess otherwise, Rekโyr remains morally-gray ; he is not entirely above the temptation of old ways if it should suit his endeavors or provide results. He is considered alluring and charming, a trace of mystique surrounding not only himself but his heritage. His presence is a solemn, but albeit welcome one ; well-spoken words intoned โpon a silver-tongue are often wise, spiritual, and insightful.Positives: Calm, even under pressure ; Rekโyr may not be seen as a warrior-type, but he is accredited as steadfast and courageous all the same ; diplomatic, chivalrous, and tactful ; confident but not cocky.Negatives: Cunning or otherwise conniving, in his time Rekโyr was considered a true โserpentโ, between a knowing silver-tongue and treacherous tactics, it was no lie to believe he could charm his way into good graces before doing something terrible ; can also be stubborn and at times seem extremely secretive.

Apparel: Wakaโs clothes are considered reminiscent of a yamabushi ( also often cited as being tengu-like in appearance or dress ) ; proudly sporting outright flashy attire, Waka wears a pink kimono with deeper pink accents, purple Sashinuki-hakama and plain tabi socks ; the geta sandals he wears are tall, having only one tooth.Accessories: A bird-like headdress which consists of the beaked helm and a flowing white to pink veil-like cloak that could almost resemble wings.

Section iii. Personality
Overall: To some, Waka can be described as CHARMING โฆ To others, a nuisance. His personality might โ at times โ be considered an ACQUIRED TASTE . Charismatic and clever, Waka is eccentric through and through. Even in dire situations, he approaches things lightheartedly and is described as being both playful and pompous. Very few things stagger him, and youโd be hard-pressed to catch him being straightforward with you ( especially when giving a prophecy ) . He is often in good humor and is often pleasant company that tends to grow on you over time.Positives: Energetic, determined, quick-witted, and seen as โfearlessโ for his less-than-serious approach to most situations ( though when need be, he can indeed be serious ) .Negatives: Not so much dishonest as he simply AVOIDS being forthcoming with many things ; his playfulness as a quirk can sometimes seem manipulative or like heโs playing someone for a fool ; can be considered vain.

Section iii. Personality
Overall: No longer the naรฏve warrior first encountered, Oki has learned much from his experiences with Amaterasu. Not necessarily wise, he has embraced an openmindedness he did not have before, now more willing to open his heart toward others and likewise, invite them in ( with a little effort ) . Strong and courageous, Oki is every bit a fighter, and is the first to rise to action should there be any trouble in the village, no matter how small the matter seems. He is protective of others, though at times might just come across as cold or callous despite his heart always being in the right place. Oki is โ overall โ well-meaning, good-intentioned, and would go the distance to serve his role as a warrior ( sometimes recklessly ) . He is also rather assertive and self-assured.Positives: Brave ( likely to a fault if not cautious ) , and sincere in his efforts, Oki has the potential โ when he manages to warm up to others โ to be kind, lighthearted, and even gentle ; committed, forthcoming, and chivalrous.Negatives: At times, Oki can still be deemed self-centered or selfish, though he tries not to be or does not intend to be ; first impressions of his character leave some with a โcold shoulderโ effect ; self-sacrificing.

Apparel: Dresses or flowing gowns with high necklines and long-sleeves, corsets, stockings, generally those garments that are flowing and dappled with sparkling accents is the way to go ; Annwyl enjoys wearing effeminate clothing compared to anything โcasualโ ( though when she does it is often a ruffled blouse coupled with a skirt or something to that effect ) ; she prefers varying hues of blues, purples, and sometimes dares for white.Accessories: Rarely does she wear her crown outside of the castle, but she does have one ; occasional pieces of jewelry such as earrings and necklaces, often silvers rather than golds.

Section iii. Personality
Overall: Annwyl is, above all things, generous, openminded, and forgiving, likely to a FAULT . Often mistaken for weakness, this sweet individual is discredited as naive and childish. However, she is determined, hosting a strong conviction and big heart that welcomes all ; that is willing to see the good in everyone and everything, no matter their sins. Though she has much to learn about ruling an entire kingdom, she faces it with grace and always wears a smile. Unwilling to allow history to repeat itself, Annwyl remains a positive influence on her kingdom, a gentle and all-loving presence which makes for an inspiring diplomat to usher in a new tiding of peace. Described as being spunky, but with a soft outer-shell.Positives: Curious rather than cautious, Annwyl has been cited numerous times to โhave no fearโ, if something intrigues her ( as many new, exciting things tend to ), she will strive to seek it out ; lover of knowledge and learning / lover of people and new experiences ; softspoken, polite, and optimistic.Negatives: A bit shy upon first encounter, even a little inexperienced ( though she tries rather hard to understand everything ) ; her overt kindness has certainly awarded her many dangers ; excitable and overeager, can come off as โclingyโ or overindulgent for company, especially with newcomers ; rarely expresses her worse emotions ( such as sorrow or anger ) , tends to bottle them up or suppress them.

Section vi. Biography
Note: This section is pending, until then here are some prevalent bits of information for Annwyl and her plotline:โ Born to a long-standing line of nobles and dragons. Annwyl herself has a BLACK DRAGON as an alternate shape, one that - even now - she struggles to control completely ( to better describe this, shifters have two parallel + bonded souls in this universe, their own and that of their creature ; Annwyl is often at odds with hers ).โ Annwyl's family has been in contention with the surrounding Factions and clans for a VERY LONG TIME ; while Annwyl's parents are described as being "good and just", they are also responsible for a lot of the suffering in her kingdom and responsible for bringing war to her doorstep by breaking the bonds of a treaty.โ Because of this infraction, assassins kill Annwyl's parents when she is just a teenager. Annwyl, at the time, was away with relatives outside of the Castle. When she received news she was devastated and barely given much time to grieve as the kingdom demanded answers. At only 15, Annwyl revoked her right to have a regent take her place while she took the time to further prepare for the role, and instead took the throne herself.โ Annwyl lacks experience, yes, but is a DIPLOMAT before she is a warlord ; she intends to preserve the peace her kingdom still holds and attempt to recover from the sins of her forefathers. Determined to make a difference, Annwyl is slowly but surely appealing to the other clans, helping them to also bring forward - or at least consider - a new time of unity rather than division. Unfortunately, she will find that fighting for peace takes just as much strength as fighting for war.

The Chimera also has several piercings ; double neck piercings along the front of his throat, piercings in the lobes and cartilage of both ears ( one of which connects the two as a small chains ), and navel piercings. The most prominent of accessories, however, is the one draped along his collarbone and neckline disguised as some royal torc ; it was a device formerly used to track him and subdue him.

Verse I: Main ( Fandomless | Supernatural )
A man or a monster? Some may say you could find happiness learning to be BOTH , as both are facets of the self. Claudius serves as a patriarch to a collective and menagerie of creatures ( mostly demons or outcasts looking for a family & purpose ) . All of them gather in his self-owned / self-made underground lounge, Lux, where business and leisure alike are typically conducted. Claudius is respected as well as feared.
Verse II: FF7-R ( Canon | Ties in with Verona, Kaen & Morfid )
Claudius Niadh is a hardworking man and devoted husband to his wife Madalyn. Never his life did he anticipate anything out of the ordinary until someone - or rather, SOMETHING - was found right in their back yard ; a strange figure who gave off a cold, inhuman light and gleam-- Adamant was he that this girl - whatever she was - needed to be returned to ShinRa. Madalyn had other plans. Although already pregnant with a son, the woman decidedly ADOPTED the escaped chimera into their lives. Rightly so, things haven't been the same since. Many years have passed since then, and he'd be lying to say he hasn't felt the least bit of PRIDE watching Verona grow into the powerful woman she is. But he is afraid, for he knows - as her father - that she is dangerous and capable of terrible things.

Section ii.i Appearance {Human}
Height: 5โ 5โโ. || 165 cm.Build: Dainty and demure, only modestly curvaceous ; the real draw are delicate features set into a misleadingly soft-edged face โ eyes heavy-lidded and framed by long colorful lashes, always smiling lips and a kind expression ; slight musculature along the limbs, but an otherwise thinner, smaller frame.Eyes Violet-red, horizontal pupils.Hair: Perfectly pink ; straight with feathering fringe โround the face.Complexion: Peachy tinted, but still on the lighter side.Markings: A beauty-mark under the left eye.
Distinguishing trait(s) Always wears make-up ( eyeshadow, blush, lipstick โ not a day goes by without at least SOME glam ) ; small horns poke out from her head, she cannot help the way her hair changes gradient at the fringe and how she exudes a sort of dream-like air - glittery and luminescent.Apparel: Pastel hues and neutral tones ( rarely does she indulge in prints, no matter how cute ) ; blouses and skirts, the occasional dress, and short-heeled pumps or ballet flats ( sneakers are a crime, even on resting days ) ; outfits are meticulously paired / complimented right down to the color of the jewelry she wears that day.**Accessories: ** Rose-gold is the way to go ; every now and then she will wear pearls.
Section ii.ii Appearance {Shepherd}
Height: 7'0''.Build: An upright-walking, sheep-like creature ; not as tall nor as imposing as her fellows, Evaline sports an androgynous ( albeit very slightly curvaceous ) shape, with the most weight set into furred bosom and thighs. Limbs are thin and long, movements graceful and with purpose, set atop shoed cloven hooves. Features are delicately set into the face of a lamb, but her eyes betray her deceitful nature ; large ears unfurl from underneath a well-kept coat of fur, drooping daintily on either side of her face ; a wee tail is hidden away.Eyes Violet-red, horizontal pupils, outlined with long lashes.Fur: Evalineโs main body coat is painted a neutral white, pristine and kept shaved.
Mane: A swell โround the face and over the breast ; a cloudlike feature in appearance, that โ at first โ seems like simple fur, before billowing down the backside and trailing behind as celestial dream-matter, leaving skittering / sparkling trails in her wake. Her mane begins as a pastel pink-rose, blending away into pastels of orange, yellow and purple.Horns: Only two, one on either side of her head, in the customary spiral ; painted rose-gold, much like her hooves and nails.Distinguishing trait(s): Billowing fur is gathered and caught into the hold of a gilded clasp at her front ; bracers decorate the arms and legs ; a single gem-like adornment is placed to her crown ; she gives off an otherworldly glow in this shape only, but none of the kindness.Marking(s): The same beauty-mark under her left eye ; cheeks seem always hinted with blush.

Section iii. Personality
Overall: Being an heiress puts Evaline on a pedestal, or at least she believes it does. Handed everything from the onset of life, this particular Shepherd is entitled and extremely vain. And while not the most powerful of her flock โ nor of her outside peers โ she has this innate belief that there is nothing she cannot do, that everything she does is perfect, and her voice should always be accounted for ( no matter how wrong these opinions may be ). A troublemaker from the start, Evaline is known to abuse her powers ( both her status and her magic ) and take advantage of those around her, indulging her every pleasure โ whatever it may happen to be at the time.Positives: Straightforward and brutally honest, she may be a โmean girlโ, but at least she tends to be forthcoming about this and most, if not all, of her intentions ; Evaline has leadership potential and can even be described as driven.Negatives: Considered conniving but not necessarily cunning โ while smart in her own right, Evaline more so creates room to make OTHERS perform work on her behalf. Manipulative, obnoxious, reckless, and careless of anyone elseโs emotions or opinions outside of her own.

Section iv. Biography
Born to a higher caste of society, it was no secret that the newborn daughter of two pure-blooded Shepherds would be given everything an inheritance child could wish for. The advantages of Evalineโs position โ alongside her pedigree โ gave her the chance to pursue a top-notch education and have access to the familyโs private tutors. It was decided, long before Evaline had the choice herself, that she would follow in the hoof-prints of the Shepherds before her and carry on the bloodline, maintaining the near-spotless record of her family. Evaline, as she entered adolescence, proved less of a prodigy and more of an insubordinate troublemaker ; finding the means to cheat her way out of her lessons, the lamb much preferred to bully her peers and assert herself as the most powerful entity in the flock (contrary to what the elders may believe). The older she got, the more likely it became that she wielded her privilege like a weapon, making it rather obvious that no matter what she did โ even if harmful โ she could do no wrong. In more recent years, Evaline has proved not to have outgrown her habits, but solidified and bolstered them ; hostile and brazenly manipulative, Evaline is outright proud of her achievements despite those she has stepped on in order to get to her place of power within the family. The respect people have for her is nothing short of a reflection of the reputation she has built ; infamy and ego. She is now threatened with disownment from the family and their wealth, but welcomes the challenge.

Vertebrae of spine are notched and crooked, bending into hooks down from the neck ( on either side of the mane ) and along the backside ; two horns stand atop the head ; long, hairless tail ; maw is hooked, as if like a beak, and the muzzle is broken not by typical molars, but interlocking fangs.Eyes White, eerily shining in the dark of the mind.Coat: Black.

Section iii. Personality
Overall: The antithesis of his kin, Tharn is well-meaning and docile. Without a violent bone in his body ( despite his dream realm appearances ), he has a heart of gold and intends to use it. Eager to put to rest the idea that ALL of his species are mindless creatures bent on wreaking havoc, Tharn seeks to make peace with the Shepherds rather than continue the ages-long war. Though not exactly the most courageous of spirits, he often forgets the merit of his strength. Soft-spoken most times, Tharn hardly ever gets angry, impatient, or flustered โ in fact, he barely does anything other than smile (if that).Positives: Despite being an outcast, he is sought out for being such a calming and level-headed presence ; often vouches for the good in everyone ( even if they donโt deserve it ).Negatives: Sometimes finds himself in precarious situations by attempting to stand up for others ( without asking ) ; tends to be too forgiving and too kind, wearing his heart on his sleeve.

Section iv. Biography
NIGHTMARES : A predominantly all-female celestial species responsible for misfortune and weaving terror in the subconscious. Very rarely is a herd ever blessed with a male ( a colt ) ; Tharn arrived in the bleak midwinter, astounding and startling everyone. It did not take long for word to spread, for gossip to bloom ( did you hear? a colt has been given to us! ) ; it took even less time for Tharn himself โ though still a weeping newborn โ to become a famous household namesake.Colts were different than fillies , there was a certain note of respect put onto their name for how incredibly rare they were ; more than several generations apart, colts were treated with esteem and prestige even the most affluent of fillies had to work for. It was obvious that Tharn would be able to take any path he desired, even if it was not dream-weaving. Tharn himself proved he had potential, but he also revealed himself to beโฆ Afraid of his own strength and unwilling to use his powers on others. Scholastically, his refusal to embrace the curriculum and the obvious non-conformity to the herd warranted near-failure ; it attracted the attention of the Elders, earning their concern as much as their curiosity.Only a young adult at the time, Tharn was placed in front of them ( composed of both male and female Nightmares, all incredibly powerful, all incredibly influential ) and questioned as to his intentions. Terrified as to what they would do with him if he even considered lying, he mustered an honest answer: he felt DIFFERENT than the rest ( and what did he mean, they asked him ) ; he wanted to BE DIFFERENT , to do MORE for the herd โ and everyone else โ other than wreak havoc and cause despair ; there had to be SOMETHING ELSE he could do! And what a shock this was to the panel of Elders, so much so that they deliberated for a long time on how to proceed before reminding Tharn that he was young, he did not yet understand the way things worked. Tharn, however, fought back against their claims and told them this was untrue ; everyone could change if given the chance.Insolence and blasphemy is intolerable, and for fear he would create anarchy or corrupt the public, the Elders sent Tharn away to the far reaches of their realm. Exiled for crimes he does not believe he committed, Tharn continues to study whatever source materials he can manage to find ( or convince anyone to provide ). He firmly believes there is a way to get not only the Nightmares to see reason, but the Shepherds as well. And by doing so, perhaps he can convince them to find peace amongst each other.

Once long and untamed, now cropped and free to do as it pleases.Complexion: Fair with the added decorum of various stony arrangements fused into them like armor. They have freckles in various places, their skin turning into a tawny gradient over their arms and legs ( and slightly along the bridge of their nose as well as across their brow ) like a fallow doe.Markings: Always banged up, Kaen wears bruises and dents as easily as clothing.

Distinguishing trait(s): Kaen's complexion resembles that of what they ARE, a Faun, with skin in some places resembling the pelt of a young doe. Kaen is speckled by stones ( notably near the eyes, over the crown, across the collar and fleetingly elsewhere like the imprint of their spine ) ; these stones โ as well as their person โ have a natural phosphorescence, a natural glow which shines attuned to their disposition.

While not wholly social, they crave to be in and thrive in social environments ; while not necessarily the most conversational, they show themself the best in intellectual stimulation ; and while not at all temperamental, Kaen's anger ( as well as their magic ) is perhaps the most explosive and volatile part of their personality. Kaen shows traits of intelligence ( both academically and sometimes creatively ) , but is oftentimes overshadowed by unrealistic ideals and goals as well as self-deprecation and loathing.Positives: Genuine and gentle-hearted Kaen puts forth everything into a friendship even at their own expense ; open-minded, curious and overall pleasant.Negatives: Kaen tends to almost never anger but does fluster easily ; stricken by an unshakable melancholy and cynicism.

Section v. Biography
Growing up wasโฆ Made simple enough, with simple rules.You eat, you live. You donโt talk back, you donโt get the shit beaten out of you. Kaen had a modest lifestyle on the outside but within the walls of their home, it was anything but. They lived in what they liked to think of as a glass castle that was slowly breaking apart pane by pane. Each precariously placed mirror and shard slowly being chiseled to nothing with the brutality their mother exerted each day.Kaen often would choose never to be home and instead would rather be outside, enjoying the thrill of the wild. Perhaps a bit too rambunctious to keep up with, they often found themselves alone, prancing about through the depthless forest mires and easily scaling rocky faces with little regard for their well-being. After all, with no good home to go back toโฆ Why was there a need to take caution?Soon enough, Kaen enjoyed the pulse of sheer adrenaline and LIFE pulsing through their veins more than they needed the hand and chain of their mother.It seemed, to those they met, that their exuberance outweighed the bruises and lashes they wore in tandem to the matriarch at their shoulder like a pestilence. Never once would they waver, never once would they raise voice or turn tailโฆโฆ But we all make mistakes, right?โฆ Or so Kaen liked to make the excuse for their mom all the time.One could argue, by playing devilโs advocate for the mother, that raising a child was too stressful for a single parent. One could go further to argue that there wasnโt enough money, wasnโt enough food for two mouths and it was either her or her daughterโฆ It was either her or her demons. And while we all had them, sometimes weโre just not able to copeโ--- But it was enough to feel her hands โround a pale white neck, shaking them back and forth, blaming them for every little thing that went wrong. It was enough to feel the air burn away in their lungs ; it was enough to see the raving in their motherโs eyes blurring in and out of focus with no intention of stopping --โ Kaen ran fast and ran far, but even so they could still hear their motherโs voice echoing in the fogginess behind them:โYouโll come homeโฆ
Come home to your motherโฆ
Kaenโฆ Kaenโฆ Kaenโฆ !โThat awful voice! It seemed to leak through the murkiness and into their very core. That was their own mother, but damned if the woman was a tyrant, an abuser. Damned if Kaen hadnโt taken so long to recognize it. But where were they running to? Outside of the bluffs and the forest there was nowhere to go, noone to turn to--The redhead let their legs continue to carry them. They trudged onwards like an aimless, errant soul with nothing left but to wander forward. And for everything theyโd seen and been up against, they figured the analogy was most fitting. It was not until the Standing Stones came into view that Kaen finally decided to relax. Their gaze swept the area and over the menhir. Theyโd remembered hearing strange fictions about these places.There was no difference in atmosphere outside of the circumference of stones, but being within them was different. A surge of newfound eeriness entered every nerve in their body but they foundโฆ For some perplexing reasonโฆ They could not bring themself to leave this powersource. It was revitalizing and complex the way it tickled their body from the soles of their feet to their scalp. They inhaled the foreign air deeply into their lungs and that same flow of power trickled into every fibre of their being. For a moment, they thought it filled the cracks of their soul their mother had been chiseling for yearsโThere was a rustle coming from the brambles nearby and what emerged was a great, opalescent stag that carried the weight of blooming tree boughs upon his antlers. He seemed like a spirit with the way he softly gleamed in the evening light of the forest but was only illuminated more when Will-o-Wisps appeared around his hooves and antlers.For some time, Kaen merely gawked. They had seen many animals, but this? This was on a whole other level than your average woodland creature.Wisps, too, they had heard of. Something, somethingโฆ Fate? The small spirits chimed softly and danced around him like a pied piper without an instrument to lure them forth. Their knees buckled underneath them and they were not sure whether it was from exhaustion or from the aura the large beast was exerting. The youth gave in and sat down in the tall grass, never pulling their gaze from the stern look the being was giving them. Eventually Kaen turned their gaze to the dirt, unable to keep the otherโs eyes.โโฆ IT IS MOST UNWISE FOR A SMALL GIRL TO BE OUT AT NIGHT.
DOES SHE NOT KNOW THE DANGERS?
OR DOES SHE RUN WITH PURPOSE?โWhatโฆ Was the deerโฆ Talking?!They were quick to raise their posture again, only to find an odd man standing in place of the deer. He was a great deal taller than anyone the younger had seen, with shadowy skin and a thicket of furious red hair. Closed about his neck was a torc and even within a human-like glamour he maintained his branched horns with the Wisps dancing about them. His eyes were lidded and kind, but clever and intimidating in their jade tones. The pelts of animal hides wrapping his form seemed to glare at the child from where they sat, accusing them of running from a problem far greater than what they were worth.A single word jumped to attention, and it wasnโt โhumanโโฆ It was โGodโ.
But how?โCernunnosโฆ?โ The horned godโs name came out softly, almost tentatively.A cant of head from the greater being, a weary smile easing into place on his lips. It seemed heโd heard that ponderation one too many times for an eonโs-worth of lives.โWHO CAN SAY?
BUT WHO ARE YOU?โโโฆ I- Troubled- I donโt know. I donโt know what to do,โ Kaen scrambled for an answer to the Godโs unusual way of questioning, their voice hitching and speeding up as they spoke. They could feel their eyes watering for the umpteenth time today.The Horned God shook his head slowly, sitting himself down just as so. It seemed as though all time within the henge had been paused to let them converse; unless that was the power of the elusive entity they were speaking to?โโฆ TโWAS THE WHAT, NOT WHOโฆโโCernunnos, I needโโโWANTโโโWhat?โThe odd God leaned against his knees, gesturing from himself then to the smaller redhead.โI CANNOT INTERVENE. FREE WILL IS NOT MINE TO CONTROL.โSilence followed as Cernunnosโ words, and hand, hung in the air for Kaen to process. They simply stared at him, their eyes overflowing with burning, blinding tears they wished they could suck back into place and forget. For all these years theyโve endured, they encounter a G O D, a rarity, and he tells them he can do nothing?!NO.
N O. N O. N O!โNo!โ They stand up abruptly, their scarred hands balling into tight fists, their body trembling with aggression and distress. โYou canโt appear to me out of the divine and tell me to suck it up! That thereโs nothing you can do! I refuse to accept that!โCernunnos merely watches, examining the otherโs appearance for a moment longer before standing up as well. His time was waning this night, he had nothing left to say, no impact was made and never would be if they cannot see beyond their own interpretations. A waft ofโฆ Frostโฆ leaves his lips as the greater approaches Kaen, towering over them.โFREE WILL IS YOURS TO CONTROLโฆ AS IT IS HERS.
MAKE SOMETHING OF YOUR OWN WHIMS, CHILD.โHe takes their fisted, burned hands into his own and gently unballs them, cradling them within his.โFOR YOUR SCARS,โLight, brilliant and soothingly warm, seeped into the painful wounds and scabsโฆโAND FOR YOUR FEARS,โโฆ And rolled up along their arms, sinking into the self-inflicted gashes like tilled earth filling with brilliance and leaking outward over the rest of their body, spilling onto the tall grass below. It reverberated throughout the circular place, rebounding off of each Standing Stone with a soft humming noise.โI WILL BE HERE TO GUIDE YOU.
NEVER WAVER. NEVER STRAY. DO NOT LOSE SIGHT OF WHO YOU NEED BE.
CAN YOU PROMISE THAT MUCH, LITTLE FAE?โThe relief that sank into their entirety was a welcome change from the fear that always consumed them however it only made the tears flow faster down their dirty, bruised cheeks. After all the encouragement, all the radiance, all they managed to reply with was a nod and a choked off garble.As Cernunnos recoiled his touch and stepped away, transfiguring again into the mighty beast he was prior to the conversation, Kaen began to reach out for the geist. โPlease- Please donโt leave me hereโโThe God turned head over shoulder and smiled as only his new form could muster.โKEEP YOUR WORD, AND I WILL NOT.โWith Cernunnos, the Wisps also vanished away, twinkling and cooing into the fog from whence they had all emerged. They flexed their healed hands, twisting them one way, then the other. Their conviction and faith was not restored butโฆ Maybe the threads of Fate had truly shifted that night. Maybe things would start changingโ
โ They had not.A mother should be kind. Should be protective. Should love their daughterโฆ But some wounds would never heal. And just as Kaenโs mother drowned her sorrows in liquor, Kaen found themself in a drunken stupor just as well. Their empty bottles, their mutilation, and their disparities, outweighed the brilliance they formerly held and eventuallyโฆโI had no choice,โ They admitted flatly to the God.The cervid did not give the aged Gael the opportunity to see him in full and instead chose to appear as the spectre-like deer. Kaen had not seen him in some time nor had called him forward with prayer. Thatโs how he had known something was wrong. He had approached on his own accord no matter his time limitations. His expression was grim as he watched the other pace back and forth in the tall grass, their lips muttering inaudible nonsense over and over and overโโDonโt you get it?!โ They whirled towards him, eyes flashing wildly. โI had no choice!โโFREE WILL.โThe greater said lowly, narrowing his gaze.Finally Kaen paused, their eyes searching the Horned oneโs face for any sign of trickery that may have come with his clipped statement.The final rock had been thrown at their figurative home and the shards fell to the floorโฆThe charade of being clogged over by alcohol, apathetic masks, and taking a skein of flesh each night had finally been broken as they looked at their hands. No more was Cernunnosโ radiance in effect; all those wounds came rushing back into place and the glamour was shattered as the truth fell into place:โYOU HAD A CHOICE THE WHOLE TIME.
YOU MADE THE CHOICE TO GET RID OF THE ISSUE.โKaen staggered back, their mouth going slack and bile rising against their throat in a wretched burning sensation. A gurgled sound caught between a scream and their upchucking tore through the air as the God watched and waited for their realization to sink in further. The redhead was reeling as blocked memories flowed into their skull. Everything was aligning and making sense.โI killed my motherโฆ I hurt those peopleโฆ I hurt myselfโฆโBlood ebbed from open sores and scabs onto the formerly illuminated grasses. It blurred and stained with their madness, congealing with the wretchedness that poured out of their body. They understood, they knew, but even so, as their body rejected what they had doneโฆ They still struggled to accept their truth.โYOU MADE A CHOICE TO EXERT PAIN UNTO OTHERS.
AND UNTO YOURSELF.โHis normally pallid eyes suddenly darkened and glistened brightly in contrast to his pure coat of fur.โYOUR CONSEQUENCES ARE YOURS ALONE, LITTLE FAE.
I NEVER LOST FAITH IN YOU, EVEN NOWโฆ HOWEVER,โOn hands and knees, the teenager shook and trembled, years of abuse and turmoil tearing their body apart in one swift moment. So this was the power of a Godโฆ? They struggled to move, to hold themselves upright but they turned their chin to look through hazed vision at Cernunnos.โIs this what death feels like?
Judgment?
F a t e?โโI CANNOT PROVIDE YOU WITH GUIDANCE ANY LONGER.โKaen began to crawl forward, nails hooking into soil and grass as they did so, their arms quavering and elbows occasionally hitting dirt as they sloppily lurched themself forward. โI- Iโmโฆ Sorโฆ Iโm sorryโฆโ They let out a pitiful sob, โP l e a s eโ !โ But the Gael could no longer see the great entity, could no longer sense the power this place of menhir once held. They let their tears continue and allowed themself to collapse onto the field, fingers and hands desperately reaching and clambering for something, a n y t h i n g. โIโฆ T r i e dโฆ Iโm s o r r yโฆโ As their eyes began to lull back, they couldโve sworn they saw more Wisps approaching into the circle, churning and glintingโ-Today, some several years later, you could say Kaen has ... Recovered ( though not without consequence; since the disownment, they've so too abandoned their heritage, acting entirely mortal despite how their blood yearns for old aspect ). Their old home sits more or less abandoned on a cursed / tarnished plot of land. Although their godly sire said he would no longer intervene on their life, they frequently encounter his underlings and emissaries attempting to erradicate them. Kaen knows the time is coming when they will have to cross the Threshold to face their father once more, to stand before him and answer for all they've done. But more than that, they will have to attempt to not only earn forgiveness but their right to the throne and a place beside him.


Our Story Continues ...
Verse I: Main ( Fandomless | Modern-Fantasy )
Caught somewhere 'tween the old magic and the new world , the faun struggles to make a living ; struggles to lead a life that would at all be considered "normal" . Having endured more than their fair share , nursing a too - wounded heart and keeping still - bleeding skeletons in their closet , Kaen wonders if there ever will be a normal for them ? Still having yet to come to terms with their past , Kaen juggles not only coping but also their budding magical aptitude , and will one day have to confront Cernunnos - their father - for the right to the throne.
Verse II: Human!AU ( Fandomless | General )
A verse where everything is pretty much the same but Kaen is just human.
Verse III: Future!AU ( Fandomless | Modern-Fantasy )
A verse essentially set in a time beyond the main timeline of Kaen's story ; they have faced their father, they have withstood the trial, they have earned their place beside him and are likely better off for it. Now, they must learn what it means to be an heir, a god-creature, and how it feels to have purpose and meaning again.
Verse IV: Fame!AU ( Fandomless | Modern-Fantasy or Modern | Synopsis Here )
Rags to riches or so they say , gotta' keep pushing for that fortune and fame! Born to nothing , having come from nothing , Kaen Rolav would have been goddamned to continue to be nothing. With no-one left to make proud in their life following their mother's death , Kaen made the choice to make THEMSELF proud ; scouted in early adulthood , already with a reputation on their shoulders , Kaen quickly proved to be a talent and upstart. Now , several years later into their starlit career , Kaen is a recognizable face. . . But just as reckless as ever.
Verse V: Stranger Things ( Canon | Synopsis Here )
Leading a โnormal lifeโ didnโt ever seem part of the itinerary , did it ? With supernatural powers and nothing better to do , Kaen realized that โ for once โ maybe their being โdifferentโ was their STRENGTH ; and if only people knew ! But their mother , cruel and dismissive , rewarded their power with admonishment ( a curse ! youโll kill us ! a curse ! ) ; words theyโd carry with them for years. When Kaen finds themself at odds with survival , forced to choose between dying by their motherโs hands or livingโ Their whole life goes up in literal smoke. Everything , in a matter of moments , reduced to ash and cinder. And from the wreckage comes a man who offers to take them in , consoles them with the fact he is โfamilyโ. Uprooted , with nowhere to go , Kaen is relocated and begins anew with their uncle. Only now , in Hawkins , so far from New Hampshire and their old life , Kaen comes closer and closer to the fact theyโre part of some grander scheme ; to the fact their uncle is hiding something ; to the fact their revelation of their newfound fire was only the beginning.
Verse VI: The Dark Crystal ( Canon | Synopsis Here )
It is known that there exists OTHER WORLDS beyond the reaches of Thra ; great places, much the same, imbrued with unfamiliar magics and foreign, powerful creatures. From another realm - known as The Wyrd - comes just such a creature: stepping - more like falling - into the embrace of a new place and a new people. They, an heir to an entire realm, came for peace but ran instead into war. Although they've long prepared for the occasion, there is so much left unknown ; so much they've yet to learn. This godling will have to make the choice: are they willing to rise to Fate and sacrifice all they are for this new world they so love, or will they return home and seek to live?
Verse VII: FF7-R ( Canon | Synopsis Here | Ties in with Verona, Claudius & Morfid )
Born to a dysfunctional addict mother and an impoverish home , Kaen learned young that nothing came free in life ; nothing was done without struggle and effort. They could not rely on their own mother for guidance , oft' getting into trouble on her behalf to keep them both alive and sustained. Fate shifted when Kaen took matters into their own hands , and in walks a woman who says that debts must be repaid. Now in custody of the notorious Valhyr enterprise , Kaen grows up not only as Verona's ward but a trusted / competent worker ; a new life , a new beginning , all in the shadow of a woman who is so obviously INHUMAN.
Verse VIII: Trigun:Stampede ( Canon | Ties in with Kadai, Sloan & Verona )
On the outside, they seemed to have everything perfectly together. But nothing is ever quite as it seems, is it? Behind closed doors, away from the public eye where masks were no longer necessary, Kaen's mother was a cruel woman and Kaen's father turned the other way simply to keep the business going and their reputation spotless. Kaen, between it all, was made to be the child who accepted their fate and endured it with a grateful smile ( after all, they had everything in life, what did the mistreatment matter? ). Resentment, though, has a way of breeding in such places. And one evening, torn between living and dying from their mother's outburst, Kaen pulls the trigger and ends it. For good. Their father, however, decides to DISOWN THEM , giving them the rifle they'd used and forcing them out of the city. Now, several years bygone, Kaen is armed with nothing but the same gun and a grudge. Although they hardly ever use their bullets, they know well the old saying: SHOOT TO KILL.
Verse IX: One Piece ( Canon-ish | Synopsis Here | Ties in with Claudius & Verona )
The story of GODS & MONSTERS is not new, but has gone farfetched for a long, long while now. They sleep in human history, forgotten. But... Some might say they walk amongst us. A beacon stands eternal in the East Blue; a raging fire as fit as the spirit who lit it. The "crown jewel" of the ritzy lounge known as Lux is by and large one of the most enigmatic of figures; sweet, yes, but strangely strong... And not altogether human, either, despite how they play pretend. If Gods truly exist, could one be hidden in the heart of such a small little faun like this? Perhaps for enough berry they might tell you ( if they could remember what they truly are, that is ).
Verse X: Yu Yu Hakusho ( Canon | Synopsis Here )
Were you there when that strange LIGHT fell from the heavens, when the Earth shattered in its wake, lit ablaze? If only we knew what it was-- Wandering alone in a realm not their own, banished from the Celestial Plane, this godling now masquerades as any other normal mortal. But in the time that passes, their godhood is steadily breaking beyond the seal bestowed upon them from their exile; it is becoming almost impossible to hide what they are. And soon they must face the awful choice to return home, to acknowledge what they are, and to leave their false mortal life ( & all those within it ) behind.
Verse XI: Jujutsu Kaisen ( Canon-ish | Synopsis Here | Ties in with Verona )
In the beginning, such as there was darkness which walked in stride with humanity, there was AN IMMACULATE LIGHT which fell beside them, guiding their path and showing them the way. For tens of thousands of years, impressed upon the souls and heritage of many, there stands one magnanimous beast, reigning above all: KAELTYR. A name invoked in prayer, chanted lifetime after lifetime; a curse which has transcended and become A GOD AMONGST OWN KIND, immortalized, deified by the everlasting faith, hope and reverence granted upon it by humanity. Kaeltyr is regarded as a benefactor of humankind, a creature of immense mercy and love; it, the ready and knowing hand of Fate for all. Even today, its name still sits upon the tongues of humans. But now, it assumes a human shape; unassuming, simple, walking amongst them as naught more than a mere pauper. Soon, it knows, though, its own Fate shall come to question. And though it has stood with humanity for ages, it is still, naturally, an ancient curse which has long gone hungry and discontented by the ways of mortalkind.
Verse XII: My Hero Academia ( Canon-ish | Synopsis Here | Ties in with Kadai, Sloan & Verona )
Verse desc. here.
Verse XIII: Windbreaker ( Canon )
POWER , PEDIGREE , PRIVILEGE . Kaen had it all, born the one-and-only ( bastard ) heir to a powerful crime family with roots as deep as their stringent moral tradition and violent virtues. Groomed from the start to succeed the mantle of the Patriarch, to become the HEAD OF THE HOUSE , Kaen's world was not as perfect as the public believed. How can they be expected to be THE PERFECT SON when so much fights against them ( the abuses of own mother, the others in the family who deem them unfit-- ) . When their world - quite literally - goes up in smoke, when Kaen is left surrounded by ashes and blood, their father decidedly disowns them, marking them as DISHONORED and "with no place amongst this family." Kaen now serves a sentence of isolation, working on neutral territory as a lounge performer simply to get by. But make no mistake, it was war Ceres instigated all those years ago; IT IS WAR HE WILL SOON GET.

Section v. Biography
An abundance of magic surged throughout the realm, granting life within itself a beauty it had not seen for generations. Beings of many sorts began to appear as rifts opened within the region, they took residence, they thrived, and they made kinship with the humans. Ancients were prominent ( magnificent beasts which had seen the manifest of magic itself, which had been there when the first laws of the realm were cast ), they took many forms but most of them sought to keep the realm alive and peaceful. Their positions in the realm began to dwindle once others surged in; poaching, warfareโฆ Even as a respectable and honored kind amongst many, there were plenty who sought them as nothing more than profitable exchange. And thus, these Ancients - as well as their disciples - had soon become little more than myth and god-writ legend.Every generational span of years there is a royal family in charge along with a select set of Councilmen who represent each mix of kin roaming the region, no one is left without their fair say. However, on a certain night, when tensions between alliances had begun to wane and rumors of war was once again breaching the Council, the single child of the royals at the time was born with a very distinctive marking; a raised rune-like formation in the shape of aโฆ Qilin? Circulating below her collarbone and across her bosom. Like an ailment it was expanding to encompass her entire body the older she grew. No treatments performed, no rites spoken, would serve to rid her of this invalid marking appearing to devour her whole.When she reached her prime, the marking had seared into her face. No suitor was without complaint and her parents, though understanding of the distress, were also fairly disconcerted. So they prayed, they prayed for many moons for her to be rid of this blemish. Until they received a letter writ in elderly scrawl, explaining the situation; their daughter was a chosen few, which would continue to occur every couple generations unless the old tribes came back. She, herself, was becoming an Ancient, bound to be a member of the old blood - a tradition which had been expelled several years priorโฆ That which her Kingdom had willfully thrust out ages ago. The note further went on to explain that in the far reaches of the Northern borders, there was a floating islet that still housed the beasts and they would come for the young woman the following day. However, it explained, there was no way to stop the process from repeating itself nor from stopping it at all to the daughter.The royals set out on the pilgrimage, bringing their beloved and distraught child to the summit of the floating islands. What they found was indeed a secluded clan of Ancients - manes like clouds, scales of fine metals and horns like gemstone pillars, boasting auras fit to consume them, all towering above the humans in harrowing glory. Even despite the mortal scourge, they were thriving amongst themselves, no matter how small their modern numbers. Two stepped forward, they proclaimed themselves Elders of the clan and that they would teach her well to be a new Denizen to return to the Kingdom and reintroduce their clan. Wary, and a bit daunted, it took some coaxing but the royals accepted and in saying farewell had handed over their prized young womanโฆ Then they were fading into the distance. And the youthโs new life had shortly thereafter begun.As said, the Elders were the primary caretakers. Respectable and honorable creatures, they never once stepped over any boundary she set. Nor did any of the others she had come to learn and be introduced to. She learned many manners of things; transfiguration, alchemy, historyโฆ And even a few mundane courses were expanded upon; cooking, sewing, musicโฆ She had taken a very great liking to these beasts, and some of them to her, some of them even going so far as to conform into a human guise in order to further her comfort until she could transform as well.
There was brooding and deceptiveness, however.While everyone presented as a wonderful hoard, they were plotting a menacing attack upon the other regions of Navehe. A good portion of them, anyway. Another portion was against it, and soon there were constant spats elicited amongst their own kind; volatile and unabashed. The young woman found herself at odds. The Elders, she found, were just as conflicted as their flock. One favoring violence and the other favoring a treaty. It didnโt take long for them to turn their gazes onto the future Denizen, for if they could not be trusted, then why not her? She was after all what their scrolls had foretold of; someone to be plucked of random by birthmark and sent to them on high in order to grant them happiness and power. She had no answer, she abided by both sides to compensate for indecision. And they were displeased.While she slept soundly, the Elders came again to her, this time in silence and not to talk. If neither could have her then so be it; they would start from scratch. They halved the woman, each taking a piece of her so neither was without token and spoke a dubious rite upon either corpse to grant them what they sought. However, rather than bursting to life, what arose from the corpse was a brilliance far too bright for them to look upon and they were forced to turn away. As the entire islet shook to all of its core, a gilded beast arose from the halved body giving them a righteous bellow. They fled in warning trying to tell everyone of the danger โThe floating islands, one by one, fell into the ground and ocean below. The shrunken clan, although never heard from again, were said to have opened a rift and escaped elsewhere. The immense golden beast which arose from a corpse shot forth from the grounded islet and in shrouding itself in a pale flame became a comet, disappearing into the night. Many recount seeing the shooting fiery thing cross the sky once hearing the crashing of the floating plains, however none really knew what or who it was.Some islands remain anchored to the atmosphere, even nowadays, a remainder of what had been. The magic in Navehe has all but faded. Rifts from other places still tend to open on a whim, but not many stay upon seeing how feral the place has become over time. There are townships even still, and there are rumored to still be humans, some elves, the occasional Nymph or Faeโฆ But otherwise, no one stuck around after the economic and magical collapse of the region and its territories.โฆ But I assure you,
Someone did manage to stick aroundโฆ

Verse I: Main ( Fandomless | Fantasy )
Takes place after the Ancients fled the realm in the wake of her fury, Lhore acts as denizen and peacekeeper, helping to restore balance to a fraying world order. She travels constantly and is never in one place for very long.
Verse II: Modern!AU ( Fandomless | Modern-Fantasy )
Set in a more modern timeline or general setting, Lhore found it in herself to plant roots ( for the most part ). Per the advice of some Ancients who once crossed her path, the Qilin opened a store of curiosities and antiques ; rare items she personally takes the time to restore by hand herself and sell to the public. Although her disposition is as cold and cautious as ever, it helps to have something more connected to society.
Verse III: The Dark Crystal ( Canon | Ties in with Verona )
A foreign creature hailing from beyond the borders of Skarith, Lhore is a nomadic creature who wandered far beyond the domain of Navehe ( a place now plagued by the imbalance & scourge which seeks to overtake Thra ). No longer able to fulfill her role as peacekeeper to a frayed land and dying people, she settled elsewhere, going so far as to take on A NEW SKIN - that of a Vapran, that of a spellweaver and healer. Now, many hundred trine since her solace, war again threatens her peace and asks her to reveal her true face and strength for the greater good.

Orientation: Demisexual || Demiromantic.Species: Genetically altered human ; some ( including Sloan themself ) might argue theyโve entirely lost their human aspects years ago.Occupation: A former ward of the Eye of Michael ( escaped & now serving their time running from their demons ) ; Would merely call themself a simple traveler or vagabond nowadays, one not in the venture of looking for company.Faceclaim?

Height: 5' 10''. || 177.8 cm.Build: Lean ( though somewhat wiry ), athletic and complimented by subtle curves ; muscular limbs, strong composition ; intelligent, albeit tired, gaze fixed into an indifferent expression and a delicate face.Eyes: Blue-violet, tends towards more of a distinguished, brighter purple hue under certain conditions.Hair: A dark chestnut, wavy and thick; cropped short โround the face, slightly overhanging the right side in loose curls and typically held in an unkempt french braid that ends just a few inches beyond the shoulders; dark tresses are tied with beads and feathers.Complexion: Tan ; being in the sun for extended periods of time lends to Sloan coming around with freckles.
Markings: They did have a tattoo of the sigil for The Eye printed into their skin, between their shoulderblades, towards the nape of neckโฆ Upon escaping, Sloan took initiative to remove the mark by way of burning it out of their flesh. As such, the burn scars remain, seared permanently into their backside alongside any other various scars theyโve obtained over the course of their history as a fugitive.Distinguishing trait(s): Near-always wearing a RBF to the point theyโve been accused of acquiring โfrown linesโ or seeming as if they are irritated by something constantly ( note: not always the case ) ; Sloan gives off a certain โauraโ that is palpable to most living creatures, including humans - they radiate a caliber of inhuman strength that wards many off, and those who get too close oftโ trigger this energy to retaliate and react in variable ways.Apparel: TBA.Accessories: None.
Section iii. Personality
Overall: Serious and the least bit temperamental, Sloan most often prefers to keep others held at a distance ( for good reason ) . Although Sloan is not normally an aggressor, they do come off as hostile and cold for first impressions. Straight-faced and no-nonsense is the way they approach pretty much all occasions, oftentimes speaking in blunt and deadpanned remarks or quips ; though their indifference towards people is, truthfully, a charade hiding a core of someone who very much cares and wants to be close to others but simply doesnโt know the way to do so without causing undue harm. Beneath the rough exterior, a broken, uncertain character who isnโt really sure WHO THEY OUGHT TO BE ANYMORE .Positives:Protective of others ( sometimes even over-protective ) and loyal ; honest to the point of seeming rude ; forward-thinking, proactive and action-oriented rather than focused on idle conversation ; willful, determined, and composed ( especially under pressure ) .Negatives: Sloan is a character of few words, making conversation difficult to those who donโt read the tells of body language well enough, often lending to them being regarded as apathetic or otherwise distant ; selfish and the least bit arrogant ( read as: taught to look down on those without powers / sees themself as chosen or otherwise cursed ) ; considered impatient and impersonal.
Alignment: Neutral - Good.Myers - Briggs: ENTP.Major Arcana: The Star ( Upright ) , The Tower ( Upright ).Violent? When necessary.Smokes || Drinks || Drugs: Never || Occasionally || Never.Mental: Touch aversion ( minor ; not to the extent it impedes interactions with others, but to the extent it makes close contact slightly discomforting ) , insomnia, infrequent dissociative episodes and recurrent volatile intrusive thoughts ; Sloan frequently experiences a disconnect from themself and from those around them, especially with regards to their abilities and where they came from.

Section iv. Biography
Note: This section is pending, until then here are some prevalent bits of information for Sloan's character:โ Sloan has been a fugitive from the Eye for about a decade.
โ Sloanโs โauraโ tends to react differently depending on the person / how they feel about said person ( ie: the stronger the emotion, the stronger the pressure someone might sense when near them ) .
โ Sloan is a telekinetic with a highly promising aptitude ; however, Sloan STRONGLY PREFERS not to use their powers because, as they admit themself, they escaped the Eye prior to fully completing their mastery over their abilities. For this, Sloan is actually AFRAID of their powers as coming back to reality after using them over a long period of time continues to prove increasingly difficult for them ( using their abilities does not come without consequences! sloan has chronic migraines which only become exacerbated with the use their abilities ; they will bleed from the nose/ears or become extremely disoriented if they use too much strength at once, etc ) .
โ Because Sloan and Legato seem to share similar powers, I personally HC that Sloan has worked with him a few times to hone their strength and learn to control it. This can obviously be up for discussion!
โ When Sloan left the Eye, they caused a lot of havoc and destruction, for this reason theyโre slated for โterminationโ upon being found.
โ Sloan does NOT have healing attributes like the other chosen few in the Eye ( nor do they have access to the special serum ). However, they donโt feel much of anything either ( read as: their sense for pain / their nerves have been near-completely dismantled ) ; punch them, stab them, shoot themโฆ Theyโll barely notice. On top of this, Sloan is almost desperate to feel SOMETHING. Or to feel REAL.

Verse I: Main ( Canon | Trigun:Stampede ) ( Ties in with Kaen, Kadai & Verona )
Sloan Bates - project name: THE ANOMALOUS - has been a fugitive for a decade. God willing ( if he still cares enough to listen after all theyโve done ) , theyโll be able to last for several more. But, running from demons isnโt exactly the best of lives to live, is it? And itโs easier said than done. Sloan tries to ignore the dogma, tries to avoid the obvious pulse of power in their veins, but the longer they doโ the worse it seems to get. Inevitably, their path will align with others and they will be forced to risk everything ( including themself ) to protect the people who become their family.
Verse II: Fandomless ( Modern-Fantasy )
Serving as an underling for Claudius, Sloan works closely alongside the halfling and those within his inner-circle. Having worked their way up the ranks, Sloan serves as a trustworthy and now-familiar character in his brood ( much like Morfid ) . While they still have much to learn in terms of controlling their powers ( oftentimes being in private tutelage with Claudius himself ) , it doesnโt negate that Sloan serves Claudius well, both within Lux and on outside private missions to keep the peace with other clans.

Height: 7'0'' ( Typically when walking with mortals ) ; Her height and mass can change erratically because of transfiguration - she can be either much smaller, or much larger than this by own will.Build: A form both feminine and athletic ( muscular, tall, toned, stalwart and confident ) ; predatory features and sensuous curves alighted by Empyreal aura.Eyes: Silver ; Turns gold under certain situations ; slitted pupil, shadowed lids and long, pale lashes.Hair: Long, slightly curly golden blonde trusses.

She owns regal jewelry ( diadems, dangling earrings & the like ) but will mostly bring these out when the occasion calls for it.

Section iii. Personality
Overall: A woman with an inherently STRONG REGARD for order, no matter the cost, the Titan gives off a presence of unalienable strength and valiance. A manifestation of WAR ITSELF , Verona is a creature both known for force as much as intelligence โ known better as a savior as much as a savage ; passionate and raving, she saves a seat for desire and destruction at her altar, inviting her disciples to feast and gorge themselves on the blood-ripe fruit of CHAOS . Denounced from her place amongst the Gods of her time, Verona embraces her truer nature โ the instinct beyond intuition, the need beyond notion ; indulgent in her own madness, the Titan is a quick-blooming danger, a rot curdling through the host of Elysium. She is a usurper ; She is a devourer ; She is a conqueror ; And she will stop at NOTHING to challenge the Fates.Positives: Has an instinct to protect and provide solace / compassion to others ; extremely well - read &. intelligent despite being a creature of blood &. battle ; inherently passionate, almost inspired in her ways - amourous, sensual and vigil.Negatives: Is often seen as curious rather than cautious, willing to follow an intriguing trail into trouble ; seductive &. secretive, with nigh insatiable desires whetted only by battle and feats of valor, this is a woman who very obviously looks down on men ; manipulative &. mischievous.

Section v. Biography
A World and its creations can oftโ be distilled into facets of DIVINE ABSOLUTES:Monsters & Men,
Predators & Prey
Chaos & Order.Yet, there are those who challenge the natural order, those who measure their merit โ risking all blessed being โ โgainst the shackles forced โpon them. For who should have to idle and bow to Celestial monstrosities? Who should have to confine themselves to their ordinance? Destiny, some believed, was intended to be controlled, made a conduit for the ravenous, raging hearts of hailed Godsโ creations ;
Fate could serve us, Stars could instead be rewritten into legend rather than tragedy!To their Gods โ to their sublime masters ( or were they puppeteers? ) โ defying Fate and whoring the whims of Destiny was inconceivable! Was unthinkable ! And still, with so many outcries of change and whittling the cogs of an incurable machine, very few hardly had enough power to change what was written ( a near-eternal ink scratched within the tome of predestine ), fewer still had courage enough to try. Or perhaps were damn-well foolish enough.And this is to follow one such Valkyrie...Gods are expressed as the ultimatum, believed to be our foremothers and fathers. However, in Naheve, there are predecessors to Gods ; primordial beasts known as Titans who lorded over the realm in absolution, in unfettered Chaos. Thus, with the uprising of Gods and their unleashing of magic across the land and its creatures, dawned an era of Order. Even in a heralded time of peace, these Titans remain just beyond their reach, biding their time and power, awaiting another chance to overthrow the balance and toss the realm back into its once ruinous beginnings.There are times, though, when these primal forces intercede on those of the Divine, altering the forge of their children, skewing the crosshairs of Fate... Forces which remind the Gods that even they have something to fear, that they have something to protect their creations from.Thus, they called her VALKYRIE.And she, alongside her sisters, would be bound to the Oath to protect โ to serve โ the children of the Gods. A Valkyrie was a woman borne of the craft of Conquest ; a culmination of fury, frenzy, and freedom, reaping souls from the scourge should they be worthy of the halls of Elysium, and guiding โ carving โ the path of victory for her people when hope seemed all but a useless endeavor. This became a welcome alliance in the face of ever-encroaching danger, a welcome force when War mounted on the horizon, eager to raze ruin to the realm the Gods had worked tirelessly to cultivate from mere festerings of Chaos. And still, in their hours of peace, Chaos found its way to bleed into the barest of cracks within their homes and hearts, pillaging and leeching โpon innocent souls, leaving stains of covetous destruction over once proud and pristine realm.There was always a saying โ perhaps a warning โ that mentioned the brightest of lights cast the darkest of shadows. And how holy, how radiant these newfound guardians were ! What a delicacy they made to the Titans ( how could they resist such a tempting idiom? how could they not destroy these women and reshape them to their whims? ) ; these creatures so enchantingly empyreal and immeasurably impeccable, it was hard to resist strangling the very divinity from them and feasting โpon their war-bound carcasses. It was in this time the Titan of DEATH wove himself a plan as his brothers had, believing himself rather clever ; devouring the warmongers and molding them to better serve their ever-expanding blight.It was in this time Death encountered a particular one of these guardians โ the very first to have arisen from the celestial forge โ a woman who stood unmatched and unchallenged by her Sisters with her vigil divinity ; a beacon who marched with purpose, stalking down from the steps of Elysium to stand in defiance against the force of Death. As he gazed โpon her, her sempiternal shine near-blinding and burning to behold, he is reminded of his fellow, reminded of the strife-bringer, WAR. The way she moved โ with absolution and wearing the stench of conquest โ setting the stage for the battle bound to unfold โtween them... He understood: War elected to choose a vessel, a herald, or what-have-you. His brother had chosen a descendent who would one day rise to take his place. It was.,. Hard to believe.Certainly if it was true, if War indeed had a hand in cultivating such a creature, then this would be no better time to usher in a new era! When he prepared to speak, the husk of one of her Sisters unceremoniously dropping from his arms, he was struck โ cast aside in a lucky first-strike he no sooner recovered from than the great she-warrior charged at him once more. She engaged one of the primal entities in a bout fitted for legends ; nothing was minced, the two engaged in equal measure of ghastly barbarism and wild, destructive abandon. The final blow is dealt at last, offered by Death. It is โpon her knees, breath heaved, victorious life polluted by such an incriminating loss, that she is forced to accept her defeat, to yield to the abyssal Titan , wondering if mercy be a word he knew...... Was it? Heโs long forgotten the taste of the term on his tongue. Yet looking at her he remembers it ( wonders, too, if his brother has taught her what it meant as well ). With her having found defeat at the hands and blade of the rotted Titan, perhaps there was more to earn than victorious clemency, perhaps there was more to see than simply this vision of a fallen Valk. Respect, loyalty... Virtues earned, yes, just as death was, but how he lusted after such artifacts from such a sublime specimen. While he could have indulged her, he finds more satisfaction in seeing her break further. Thus, with point of blade tucked to the porcelain column of her throat, he cleaved away her warrior's howl, stripped her near in twain down well past her bosom and left her there to suffer, a survivor โ an offering of mangled flesh to her masters.In the hours and months where pain โ where wounded ego and desecrated body โ stretched out the arduous trial of recovery, Verona finds the World still turns. She hears from her Familiars and the gossips through the walls that the Titansโ presence is ever-growing, and her people are continuing to disappear, the realm itself pitifully writhing under the weight of changing tides ; the bout between Order and Chaos surging to a calamitous head while she is left to gather back her strength and glory. Meanwhile, in the ephemera of unconsciousness, Verona encounters another Titan : the primal entity of War who strangely seeks diplomacy, unlike his brother who left his imprint on all he encountered. There, while she is adrift in dream, she confers with the Ancient. He is forthcoming, telling her she has been chosen as his next vessel and in time, she would arise to the seat of Titan in his place. It would be โpon her winged shoulders that Fate is intended to be helmed โWhat was all this โbout Fate...?
Wasnโt it modern belief that the Stars were our slaves?However, who was she to contest such a being? Perhaps the World truly was intended to return to its original state, to return to Chaos. But for her to be the one to lead the charge seemed unlikely when she stood with the Gods... Yet she wondered after all this, did the Gods still stand with her?In the years to follow, the Valk continued to serve her masters dutifully. Moments littered her lifetime where she intertwined her path with the Titans more and more. Their ungodly, infuriatingly infectious presence enraptured her, enthralled her , dislocating her loyalty brick by meticulous brick, replacing the seams of mortar with tricklings of Chaos. The barest of tastes, but enough to whet her palate and cleanse it of the righteous taste of Order, enough to spurn on the dangerous curiosity she now found herself the victim of. Yet they offered her more and more, encouraging her to explore the facets and fancies which were denied to her and her Sisters since the dawn of Order ; they, even Death who looked at her with some possessive fancy, walked her willfully into the unknowns and danced her through the shadows her Gods never dared to explore.She became entranced by these beasts and their offerings, practically infatuated with their ways of mystic mayhem and devouring destruction. Whilst she continued to serve, she now saw plainly through the words of her masters ; Gods were undeserving of their hallowed temples and shrines, unheeding of their worshippers and their prayers, they were spoiled fruits weighing down the boughs of the realm, leeching away what still left it pure and tarnished it with empty, senseless satisfactions, leading their flocks to slaughter for what, but to wash their names in bloodied glory smeared across tomes and legends as if it meant more than empty entertainment โOrder, Verona learned, was not order or law or justice at all, but rather the Godsโ blind conquest over a realm which did not need them.The Valk became disillusioned with the Gods and her Oath. What would happen, she began to wonder, if she ventured to take hold of her own Fate ? Freedom was so close, she knew, for herself and her Sisters ; it was tangible. The only things that stood in her way were the Gods and never once โ not since War riddled her thoughts โ did she consider breaking away from Elysium, breaking away from the Deities who claimed to know the meaning of love and sanctity. The longer she waited, the more she found her impatience pushing to the forefront, the more she began to pace and ponder ; instability and fever mounting, mouth watering at the prospect of strangling her keepers on the very bonds they kept her tethered by.... When she could no longer swallow and choke on the yoke and burden-weight of subservience, the ravenous Godsbane in her veins singing through her, unraveling that once-dormant Serpent awaiting in the pits of her ; a seedling planted and taken root, blooming, cultivated in hate and treachery by the Titans, now stretching her armored coils and opening great envenomed maw wide in search of a meal long denied.Thus, the Gods are unprepared to be met with their grandest asset and creation to rage against them, her quiet compliance lost in the face of her frenzied fury. Too proud to flee, too stupidly courageous to admit fear in the face of consequence and defeat, the Gods met her ruinous reckoning with their own until scourge stained Elysiumโs consecrated halls and horizon. The age of Order crumbling uselessly under the force of the newblood Titan. However, even with her strength and the treasonous efforts of her turncoat Sisters, she is eliminated and cast โ burning and screeching vengeance โ out of Elysium. The Gods , pitiful as they are, were never dull ; she will return and return with the others to stake claim to the realm. It was but a matter of time.


Our Story Continues ...
Verse I: Main ( Fandomless | Fantasy )
Left discarded from her noble post, her glory in smoldering, rotting remnants at her clawed feet, the Exile razes unholy scourge 'pon her former masters and creators ; unrelenting and insatiable in her vengeance. A terror, a plague, a LEGEND amongst the squalor of those who pitifully existed before her , she stained her name into the Stars and devoured the Gods who sought to contain her.
Verse II: Modern!AU ( Fandomless | Modern-Fantasy )
Somewhere amid an urban setting, mortals mingle easily with the magical. Verona herself remains an outlaw, constantly discarding one life for another in hopes of escaping the mounting bounty trailing her. A known user of the dark magics, she is no stranger to death ; no stranger to moral ambiguity. It was even rumored she STOLE some of her other mystic attributes from former members of the Coven.
Verse III.I: Kingdom Hearts ( Canon | World Info Here )
Set in the deeply fantastical realm known as Fantasia, every creature and creation carries within itself a soul-woven 'song'. Here, mortals openly commingle with the mythical, intertwining their lives with Elemental Titans and even primal entities. However, beyond the guise of offered solace and magical musicality, reigns a Shadow overcast from eons and eons of existence โ a Darkness which bided its time. While War plagued this realm in the past, it now rears its head once again, threatening the stability of Fantasiaโs promised Light and infecting its people with an incurable scourge known by natives as 'The Blight'. The World is becoming increasingly vulnerable ; Factions and their people are growing divided ; the toll โ as it rises โ only serves as a reminder that there may be nothing to stop Diabolโs ascension. And all the while, history ( perhaps Destiny ) rests its eyes on one Guardian who teeters dangerously between rallying Diabolโs conquest and being the remedy of her realm... But is it already too late?
Verse III.II: Kingdom Hearts - Post!KH3 ( Canon )
War tore Fantasia apart, casting the scourge of Chernabog across the realm. It was only through Divine Intervention of Belobog, and the bravery of a few unfettered Hearts that the Blackened God was silenced and entombed within the pits of Bald Mountain. From his tormented remains sprouted LIFE ANEW ; the sapling of a Life Tree which now roots itself throughout all of Fantasia, feasting on any remaining Darkness, the boughs seeking to brace through the skyline and into where the Gods dwelt above. A sight which can now be seen throughout all the World. Fantasia โ a tragedy in its name โ now stands as a FORCE AND BEACON ... Itโs greatest Guardian nowhere to be found, having taken the mast and throne of Diabol, burdening the newfound weight of a Celestial darkborne.
Verse IV: FF7-R ( Canon | Ties in with Claudius, Morfid & Kaen )
Picked apart and pieced back together , what youโve made was a vision of a PREDATOR ( should we congratulate you for succeeding in the name of science? ) ; all frozen resolve and cultivated cruelty, no sense of preservation and half-blind with HATE ( literally ). She escaped them, and turned her disgrace into POWER & PRIDE . In the dark underbelly of that bright city they built she grew her visceral empire of drugs and debtors ; forging a lifestyle rich and extravagant but HOLLOW as the people she found. Now the vision and brains behind the notorious "Valhyr Enterprise" , the namesake alone is riddled with fear and respect, a common moniker amongst many who came to her looking to strike a bargain. With one hand gathering reputation in topside and the other pulling strings in the undercity, it's no wonder Verona herself is the monstrous enigma many seek but regret to find.
Verse V: The Dark Crystal ( Canon | Synopsis Here | Ties in with Lhore )
A noble-born Vapran, Verona is the daughter of battle, much as she is the daughter of magic. Rumors say she cavorts with "dark muses" and conjures terrible things ; some say she is as barbaric as she is beautiful. Some trine ago, following the death of her mate and just-born daughter, then the passing of her veteran father, she revoked her place in the family and diverged from the righteous path ( for if they so want you to be a monster, then monstrous you shall be ! ). With a heart ravaged by the pulse of ferocity and yearning for revenge, will she answer the call to arms to meet the Skeksis threat and fight for the good of her fellow gelfling? Or will she further embrace the monstrous thing that further blooms in her, fending for their destruction?
Verse V: Trigun:Stampede ( Canon | Ties in with Kaen, Kadai & Sloan )
A wife, a daughter, a home ; once, we had all of PEACE & HAPPINESS . But it did not last, did it? Veronaโs life is left in incomprehensible fractures when her family is wrongfully taken from her. The Independent razes her revenge, fueled by grief, despair and rage ( this, yes, a transgression she cannot ever forgive ) . Yet when is all said and done, when the calamity ends, she returns to the ruins and, rather than steep in her misery, joins hands with her โbrotherโ, Pandora, and erects a NEW HAVEN : Wellspring, the far-north town built on a ground of slaughter, made fertile by blood and bone. She becomes a known name, a conjured fear in the heart of Man ( the devourer, the devil matriarch of no-manโs, the deal-maker ) who poses as a woman of great influence, power and resource ; but make no mistake, although you are always welcome here in Wellspring, and she has her arms open to humanity once more โฆ SHE STILL TAKES HER POUND OF FLESH.
Verse VI: Yu Yu Hakusho ( Canon | Synopsis Here )
Verse desc. here.
Verse VII: Jujutsu Kaisen ( Canon-ish | Synopsis Here | Ties in with Kaen )
One must wonder: what does it take to make a monster? Yes, the blood, the body ... THE SPIRIT which so endows it to become evil and cruel. Born to a clan of savage women who feasted upon humanity for generations, Verona rose to power as a prodigy of her time; unparalleled in strength and control and utter barbarism ( "the Strongest" of the 20th century ). But so it goes, an empire may not have been built in a day, yet it could be destroyed in one. And though she always suspected the contempt of her fellow sorcerers, she never anticipated the PREMEDITATED ASSAULT on her clan, which left her power and family in ruins and herself, due for execution for her irrevocable transgressions. In fleeting human desperation, she sold the last of her soul for freedom, for retribution, writing her Fate in an immortal cycle of dying and undying. These days, Verona exists in tandem to Kaeltyr, chained to its heart where her own was destroyed and removed; the foil to the curse's virtuous nature, and the shadow to its immaculate light.


Section i. Basics
Name: Dyn'lo ( din - low ) .Nickname(s): Typically most cut his name to simply "Dyn" or refer to him by "Forgemaster" or "Master Dyn'lo".Birthdate: VERSE DEPENDENT ; By lore, Dustling do not technically have a birthdate so much as they are brought to life by the needs and desires of their bonded. For simplicity, most Dustling adopt the birthdate of their bonded. Dynโlo was born in AUTUMN ( around October 10th ).Age: Generally seen as โyoungโ by Dustling standards ( as most will live well into their hundreds with a strong generational bond ) ; approx. in late-twenties by human-years.

Gender || Pronouns: Male โ He || Him.Species: Dustling. ( Species Info - TDC-Centric ).Education: VERSE DEPENDENT.Occupation: Familiar-Spirit ( Former ) ; Forgemaster & Nomadic Academic ( Current ).Faceclaim? None.

Section ii. Appearance
Height: 4 ft. 3 in. by the top of the head when standing completely upright ; an uncommon height as most Dustling are only around 4ft. tall. Typically, Dustling are seen perched on their haunches, so Dyn will seem shorter than he actually is.Build: Dustling share similar form and proportions to FERRETS, having typically lean and flexible shapes, however Dyn โ perhaps due to his profession โ is slightly bulkier than his peers, offering a stronger host.Eyes: Big and round, set into an angular face tapering off into a sharp-ended muzzle ; Entirely black and shines like obsidian.Feathers: Dustling have small wings ( useful mostly for gliding ) and a feathered tail ( the length of which depends on gender ) ; Dynโs feathers are comprised of sleek black plumes where atop both wings and tail first sits a crest of golden brown fur.
โSkinโ: Fair upon the face, yet darkened on the extremities. On the legs and arms, the skin is similar to what one would find on bird legs.Fur: A full mane of black crowns the head ; the body is a mesh of golden brown and blond, rending his coloration much lighter despite his birth-season ; this creates an earthen gradient that again fades to fully black along the haunches and shoulders.Distinguishing trait(s): Powerful scent according to his same-species peers, which equates to equally powerful blood ( even to humans, he is pleasantly fragrant, smelling of sage, sandalwood & citrus ) ; dark spines line the trail of his backside, growing longest at the juncture of shoulderblades and shortening by the tailbone ; often seen with a copper-colored silk covering and a one-stoned necklace ; the scale-skin of clawed hands are long since roughened from several years of honing his craft as a Forger.Markings: A jagged burned-in scar trailing down the extent of his left arm and running across his pectoral muscle, over his shoulder, and partially up his neck; the fur here has not grown back properly, leaving full-view of the injury.

Section iii. Personality
Overall: Dynโlo is oftentimes regarded as โpart machineโ for how seemingly unfeeling he can be. With a callous, no-nonsense attitude, this particular Dustling is very much closed-off from both himself and others. As a creature who has, since the death of his bonded, poured the entirety of his existence into science, Dynโlo can seem quite clinical or โmechanicalโ when approaching others. Because of his trade, Dynโlo favors reason and logic BEFORE emotion ; he believes every question ought to have an answer, and it is part of his endeavor as an academic mind to seek those answers.Positives: Innately curious, Dynโlo has a constant need to learn, and an overwhelming thirst for knowledge no matter how meager the portion may seem ; he tends to pour much of himself into his craft ; although very much considered a distant individual, Dynโlo is intelligent and involves himself wholeheartedly in anything/everything his companion brings forward.Negatives: Seen as โemotionally stuntedโ, Dynโlo is straightforward, serious and can come across rather harshly to those who do not anticipate his nature to be scientific and factual about most things ( even emotional & interpersonal matters ) .

Our Story Continues ...
Verse I: Main ( Fandomless | Fantasy or Modern-Fantasy )
The story goes that every Dustling comes into existence when there is a human most in need of a Familiar ( be it for guidance, for strength, for protection, whatever their heart asks for ) . Dynโloโs โbirthโ was no different, brought to life by a young child who needed protection from a harsh world. Dynโlo would say he served his post well, that he did what he could for his charge โ but then, his child died of unnatural causes, severing their bond prematurely and leaving the Dustling alone with no-one to protect or call family. Dynโloโs heart became embittered and hardened to the world, the Dustling now nomadic, leaning into his forging trade, selling his crafts and wondering if โ perhaps โ it is possible for him to be connected to another soul again.
Verse II: The Dark Crystal ( Canon )
Dynโlo is a young Dustling with an esteemed place in the community, regarded as one of the best Forgemasters in recent trine. As a fledgling, he was put to trial for becoming a Familiar to the Mystics and succeeded, but declined the opportunity for the chance to remain in the homestead and further serve the community where โ in his words โ โI am most neededโ. Dyn'lo is plagued by VISIONS OF A CALAMITY which foretell the death of his tribe. These visions pressure Dyn'lo to act where his people remain passive, even in encroaching DANGER ; Dyn'lo himself remains vested with the hopes of his entire community ( though he never dared ask for such a burden ), and he eventually sets out to help the Resistance.

Height: 6' 7'' ( by the head ) - 6' 11'' ( including horns ).Build: Broad shoulders, yet a narrow and hard-working frame ; angular features in a kind face, avoidant gaze and sleepless sights ; calloused hands, chipped hooves and scarred, ink-leaking pelt โ it's clear heโs been through a lot ; his other half is strong, bulky, and swift.Eyes: Unusual ever since he changed back ; black sclera, deep blue pupils - a faint glow to their hue.Hair: Black and long, pulled up behind but hanging loose in front.Complexion: A deeper tan.Fur: Dark gray ; thicker where torsos meet and 'round the hooves.Antlers: White - golden, crooked and malformed.Markings: Darker shading 'round the eyes ; old wounds scattered across both torsos, healed over blackened rather than flesh-like.
Distinguishing trait(s): A looming sense of dread and fear ; the trickling of unease โ of something not quite altogether right and well. His skin is tarnished a bleaker, burnished shade, remnant stains of dark magic fleeting over arms and torso like unhealed wounds still aching ; antlers tower overheard in unearthly shapes, his magic carries the stench of war and regret ; a tail longer than usual for his kind, his fur tangled and grown.Apparel: Typically more modest attire ; something from a seemingly older era. A silk cravat tucked into fine-pressed waist-coats and dark-hued overcoats atop ; a well-worn cloak at times, with an antler-emblem.Accessories: A pocket-watch that still works.
Section iii. Personality
Overall: He is described as self-deprecating with a hard-to-break habit of putting himself and his work down. His self-loathing has only increased in lieu of his crimes, creating an unmendable divide between himself and others ; he is withdrawn, quiet, and soft-spoken, with bursts of sharp-tongued wit and emboldened, cocksure calculation. Although not aggressive, he cannot shake the part of him that is โ that was, that could be. His magic and logic often find themselves at odds ; the dark and light of him, then, often in conflict and putting him in the middle of uncertainty of who he should be.Positives: A student of both science and magic, he is intelligent, rational / level-headed, diligent, and resourceful ; loyal yet modest he is approachable despite being innately introverted.Negatives: Critical, indulgent, and restless ; can be socially awkward and detached from those around him. He is constantly at war with himself ; communication becomes difficult, trust even more so.

Orientation: Ambiguous ; Has no preference.Species: At least something of a God ( one who carved out godhood from the lonely carcasses of fellows, claiming it as his own ) โ While some say he was "found" in Jotunheim, Loki's true soul was plucked from the formless realm of Chaos ; A forgery of the Aesir, a child of both fire and destruction.Occupation: Advisor, spellweaver, trickster, charmer, blood-oath brother.Faceclaim?

Section ii. Appearance
Height: 6' 0''. || 182.8 cm.Build: Lithe, angular, well-mended; a frame built not for combat, but speed and magic, capable of both allure and dexterity.Eyes: A gem-like green-blue ; clever-lit, framed by dark smoke-like lining, slit pupil.Hair: A deep-rooted red; thick, breaking away from the face in tussled, fire-like furls ; held in a half upright plait at the back of the head while the rest falls loose along the shoulders.Complexion: A deeper ivory, sun-loved and rich. Arms and hands fade to pitch where fire has been cast and smote at will 'pon the flesh.Markings: Remaining scars from having his mouth sewn shut ; various burning spellwoven runes imprinted into his flesh.
Distinguishing trait(s): A child born out of the throes and aether of Chaos, Loki too bleeds as ashen waste rather than ichor - in hissing, poisonous wisps ; a constant aura of burning presence ; charred limbs, complete with inlaid veins of smolder where blood once boiled. Pointed ears and a serrated smile.Apparel: Cloth spun of greens and silvers and golds ; though not as ornately made as his Aesir fellows, they are still worn proudly, vainly. Cast over with masks of leather, plates of burnished hard-metals, covered sometimes with a cloak or cape flattered by fur or feather.Accessories: Minimal pieces of armor adorning the wrists, ankles and neckline, swathes of heavy jewelry accustomed to one greedily wanting to be adorned and adored.

Section iii. Personality
Overall: A self-serving, self-fulfilling God, Loki has full loyalties to no-one but he and himself (but potentially also some of his followers who earn such distant respect and fluid trust). Cocksure and meanspirited, his traits of mischief often come off as cruelty... Though not without cause nor method. Meticulous as ever, his schemes - while not entirely foolproof - are thorough and dangerously well-planned. Loki himself proves intelligent, indulgent, intrusive, and above all: a burning fire bursting at the seams waiting to be fed.Positives: Credited for being witty and much smarter than he seems; a master of the mystics and even better at (lying) talking, in whatever form. Known to be lively, even infectious with his charm.Negatives: Unapologetic, oftentimes, for his wrongdoings; inherently provocative ( not necessarily for the greater good of himself or others ).

Long-winded is the list, yes, and he'll respond to any of them if spoken.Birthdate: Celebrated on the Summer Solstice ( though he is truly "reborn" on the first marks and makings of spring ).Age: Wholly ancient & immortal ; Cernunnos professes - and certainly IS - to be an eternal creature. Although capable of being felled, he is sure to return.
Gender || Pronouns: Male โ He || Him.Orientation: Extremely fluid both romantically and sexually. Doesn't ask for labels, nor does he care for them ; he accepts and welcomes everyone and everything.Species: Some amalgamation of God-creature, creator-figure, and patriarchal herald.Occupation: VERSE DEPENDENT.What is He the God Of? Sex & Fertility ; the cycle of life, death & rebirth ; masculinity ; wealth, passion, strength and all which encompasses the wilderness and her creatures.Faceclaim? None.

Section ii. Appearance
Height: 7' and change. || When expressing his full godhood, he can crest over 12' high, excluding antlers.Build: Muscular and regal ; strength and poise each compliment themselves in hard-threaded form, wrought from ages and turns in maintaining peace through battle, earning the right to keep power through force, valor, and heart. He always gives the sense of towering, though is never looming nor imposing - a protector, a guide.Eyes: Heavy-lidded, hued emerald-blue, shadowed 'round the seams and framed by red lashes ; even in his ancient age, they carry a playful light.Hair: Long, thick snares of deep copper-red, threaded together in a braid ; complimented by lush facial hair.Complexion: Godhood imbrues one with a fine, warming radiance ; divine blood shines different depending on your host. For Cernunnos, it comes across as sunlit and bright - fresh like summertime glow through overhead tree boughs. His skin is calloused and roughed ; darkened over time to an almost dark-wooded hue.
Markings: Cernunnos, like the animal he represents, has faun-like resemblance in his skin ; easy to spot the fade over the brow, 'cross the cheeks and shoulders, etc. He is dappled by old scars, inlaid each with fine shimmer to memorialize the victory.Distinguishing trait(s): Unlike his offspring, Cernunnos's ears are longer and much more obvious ; he has a longer tail ; sharper teeth, a much deadlier crown which connects at the center to signify his sirehood. Cernunnos, too, is speckled with crystals which scatter decoratively over his face, the backside, and the extremities. This particular shape is faun-like - having the torso of a man and the lower half of a deer.Apparel: Altogether, in a more natural environment, Cernunnos does not wear much clothing at all aside from a loin-covering or something similar. When mingling with humans he will wear typical male attire ; button-ups, blazers, trousers, vests, fine leather shoes, etc.Accessories: Always his staff ; the snake-resembling necklace hung 'round the neck, easily takes shape into the actual creature.
Note: Understand that Cernunnos is a tricky figure. Although lore is rather scant, he is seen as taking many forms and this shouldn't be taken lightly. At one point, an overgrown buck you saw once in the forest outside of town ; again, a faun-like man found squatting and playing an entrancing melody to unseen creatures ; another time, an upright-walking stag-beast, with 4-arms and crystalline crown with the whole of the wild at his behest. To keep this profile brief, I centered the "appearance" section around the most common shape - the faun-like man. Even so, KEEP WISE!

Section iii. Personality
Overall: As an ancient, everlasting deity, Cernunnos boasts of a spiritual and wizened sort of comfort. A patriarch by nature, this particular god - however much known for his bouts of fervor, lust, and passion - is remarkably protective and caring unto the children of Nature ( consider it a habit, and not one he can quite help ). Cernunnos is secretive, and seen as mysterious, but has a palpable sense of extraversion, like a hand that beckons in offering.Positives: Passionate and gracious ; charitable and oftentimes rather friendly and open towards others despite serious first-impressions. Cernunnos is forgiving, believing in the virtue and good of many over their sins ( to a point, of course ). Honorable, chivalrous, patient, and noble.Negatives: Keeps closed-off until quite involved with another, there are many things he will not say; he is not beyond the consuming wrath of his godly ilk - he can be entirely destructive and horrific should someone dishonor his graces ( this to say he is temperamental & can be volatile ).

For Hekate, it comes across as ghostly, moon-like almost, a subtle silvery gleam blooming throughout her naturally deeper-hued complexion.Markings: Like sewn threads of celestial ink, Hekate has sigils from firstborn spells spun across her skin ; some were self-made, others were forcibly taken from others.
Distinguishing trait(s): When smiling or laughing the apples of her cheek seem to beam brighter with her shining Godhood ; slightly pointed ears, clawed nails, hard-worked palms and fingertips ; a spectral aura forewarns her presence, it creates this this not-so-subtle breath of ancient, rooted magic pulsing in the air with every step and sway.Apparel: Typically articles which allow for ease of movement ; dresses and shawls ( sometimes hand-woven ), often with a cinched waist and wide skirts and sleeves, usually complimented by a deep neckline or backline.Accessories: Bangles on the wrists and ankles ; rings upon the fingers ; several necklaces of varying age and length.
Section iii. Personality
Overall: As her myth would have it, the Mystic Mother is a provocative subject ; spirited, secretive, and even spiteful when the tides may call for it. She is often shrouded in mystery, talking in such a way that indulges one's dormant curiosities ( or one's dormant demons if not careful ).Positives: Hekate is often sought for guidance - both for spiritual means and otherwise - she has proven herself centuries over to be trustworthy to not only fellow Gods but followers ; is generally outgoing and easily befriends or charms others.Negatives: As an immortal Titaness who indulges in the bad as well as the good, Hekate inspires others in perhaps not-so-good ways ; tends to hold grudges.

Section ii. Appearance
Height: 5' 9''. || 178 cm.Build: Agile, lithe and definitely a โlightweightโ sort, Icarus would have you believe heโs athletic but he is... More aerodynamic rather than built for actual combat ; light on his feet, heโs able to move around swiftly and has spectacular balance.Eyes: A lighter brown tone ; hazel.Hair: Icarus has strawberry blond hair ( a pleasantly ginger-blond gradient ), which remains in a constant state of disarray, as if wind-tossed. Hanging against the right side of his face is a short braid that just barely reaches his shoulder.Complexion: Sun-loved and able to tan rather easily, Icarusโs skin-tone is wedged somewhere between beige and something warmer ; he has a smattering of fleeting freckles along his cheeks and shoulders.Markings: There are burned lacerations on his backside โ and a bit on his arms โ from where the wings were and then crumpled into him as he fell. Though not impairing his functionality, he is self-conscious of them.
Distinguishing trait(s): Although these wings were the very bane of him to begin with, he elected to make them a PERMANENT STRUCTURE of his person ; avian-esque prosthetics imbedded into his backside, no more medieval contraptions of wax and old feathers but now fully operational machinery!Apparel: When working, it might be obvious that Icarus puts effort into his appearance, he was taught to exceed expectations after all. However, when not working, one can find him with suspenders off the shoulders, trousers, and a button-up partially undone with sleeves unbuttoned and rolled up to the elbows.Accessories: None outside of multiple pairs of sunglasses suitable to whatever outfit he's wearing.

Section iii. Personality
Overall: Icarus holds himself to high esteem ; as the son of a renowned inventor, why shouldnโt he? People will tell you he has a boastful and haughty demeanor, a certain superiority as if perhaps near-dying taught him nothing other than to push harder for success and glory. Now working for a cause, Icarus is compassionate and resourceful.

Section iv. Biography
โI dared to dream !โ
He shouted to the peak of Olympus in the distance , his fist closing around the shadow of it as if grasping the very mountain in his hand. He held onto the essence of becoming one with it , around the ideal of being more , more , more โ
Never satisfied with the mundanity of living , of being the son of a genius ; there was โ there had to be โ something else , something greater.These wings Daedalus and he had fashioned for just such an occasion to kiss the horizon , whyโ He could think of no moment better. His father and himself would be able to place their heels on the very marble the Godsโ walked on everyday ! They would prove themselves greater than mortal commonwealth.โI dared to become someone better!โ
He mused this to his father. He even brazenly stated this with stars in his eyes to passers-by , to those who would stand and listen to the blatherings of a polymath. Icarus was a jack of all trades yet. . . A master of none it would seem. An inventor , a scribe , a theorist , a scientist , a great many things commingled into the body of a youth who sought the sky and BEYOND. He would settle for only what the Gods could offer. This mortal coil did little to suffice.. . . But people talk. They called them insane for seeking to have which should not be theirs to begin with , to tread on the lands which were not theirs to walk upon โโWatch us!โ
He bellowed , unfurling the wax and feather contraptions in their midst as if proving a point. Only , rather than being met with gazes of astonishment and wonder , they were gazes of fear and disdain. There were warnings falling on deaf ears , there were prayers meeting calloused skin โโ Being in flight was more wonderful than Icarus could have predicted. He was FREE ; free of toil and burden , free of disgrace and the disreputable shackles of normalcy. If he could only see how BLIND his own hope and his own vanity had made him.โ ... with melting wax and loosened strings,
Sunk helpless Icarus on unfaithful wings;
Headlong he rushed through affrighted air,
With wings distorted and disheveled hair;
His scattered plumage danced upon the wave,
And sorrowing Nereids decked his watery grave; โIt was not the Sun that befell Icarusโs folly , that untangled his wings of wax and feather ( although Apollo shook his own head that day, Iโm sure ), but it was Icarusโs hubris , yes we all know how this fable goes. The things he coveted drove him too close to dangerous conditions and even when he felt his wings unbinding , unravelling at his shoulders , the singe of wax pelting his skin . . . He turned his failing sights towards Mount Olympus and smiled regardless:โI dared to T R Y.โ
Rotten in his pride , his greed and his helplessness , those undone wings converged like a pitiful , scorching trap and he plummeted. . .. . . Down . . .
. . . Down . . .
. . . Down . . .
. . . Until he drowned.โI dared to t r y โ !โ
Icarus wheezed as Poseidonโs chains wrangled him into the abysmal depths , the grieving water nymphs offered their praises and their woes , circling around where heโd crashed. Their watery fingertips gathered burning feathers , draping oceanic blooms in their place to immortalize his grave.โ Oโer his pale corse their pale sea-flowers shed,
And strewed with crimson moss his marble bed;
Struck in their coral towers the passing bell,
And wide in the ocean tolled his echoing knell. โOr . . .
Thatโs what SHOULD have happened โโ They donโt tell you in the written Prose that the Gods โ merciless as they were uncaring according to all mortal account โ extended their hand to the young man ; Apollo descending in ever-radiant vision to divide Poseidonโs paths and carry the smoldering heap of a lad to shore. And it is to Apollo ( his face , his voice , his kindness ingrained in memory ) the fallen one awakes, astonished to find that his story does not end but rather, begins ANEW.


Section i. Basics
Name: Soll.Nickname(s): L'Soleil , Sunne... Truly reacts to any derivative of the name of the Sun. Sometimes mistaken for various deities of the Sun โ such as Apollo โ or even heralds of the Star itself.Birthdate: Unknown.Age: Immortal & Ethereal ; Considered to be "on in years" according to the tides of Space.
Gender || Pronouns: The Sun takes on an androgynous shape but hosts a more masculine air according to myth โ He || Him.Orientation: Ambiguous.Species: "Alien" โ A spectral and celestial creature.Occupation: Supposed "God" ; overseer, protector, and monarch of the human-known Solar System.Faceclaim? None.
Section ii. Appearance
Height: 7' 8''. || 238 cm.Build: Although fixated on a masculine shape, he boasts an effeminate air ; an almost avian form altogether with long limbs, angular features, agile frame and a light-footed, elegant stride.Eyes: Wholly gold, fire-like and sifting in a sea of black sclera ; surrounded by long, pale lashes and lined in gilded glimmer.Hair: Soll doesn't necessarily have hair so much as he has a crest of pristine white feathers. The veil of hair which he does have is a pale gold that spills down his back, intertwining with his plumes.Complexion: This incarnate has a darker complexion, accenting the flush of radiant, pristinely-colored quills he sports. His adjacent-divinity has given him a "metallic" or "fiery" glow ; a trace golden and molten sheen that constantly beams from him.Markings: All across his skin ( along the face, chest, back and limbs ) are faint presses of gold and bronze ; the more irate, the more expressive generally, the Sun is, the more obvious these lightworked tattoos become.
Distinguishing trait(s): Pointed ears, venomous and searing bite, a radiated aural warmth and power ; once pristine feathers will often ignite at the seams ; partial bird-like limbs swathed in the cloak of his wings.Apparel: Shawls and sheers of vibrant hue, strung about the waist and shoulders, left pooling at the talons of the feet ; cloth of bright, pristine ivory, bronze, and white underneath.Accessories: Soll is very rarely seen without even a grand touch of emblazoned jewelry or stone to his person. Bracers, gauntlets, torques, earrings, ringsโฆ These would all be common for the Sun to be seen wearing.
A commonplace piece of jewelry sits against his neckline like a tapestry of gemstones. It drapes over his shoulders and falls across his backside in weaves of crystalline pieces, assorted in colors, braided through along pale gold leashes. In some instances, this large piece seems to fall over his wingspan in intricate weavings. In others, it sits in a gilded cape-like structure that merely drapes over silken clothing.
Section iii. Personality
Overall: Soll is, unsurprisingly, rather confident at first glance. However, he does strike others as perhaps a bit lonely or wistful. He is all too aware of his mortality, of his innate ability to destroy the System he reigns over... This leaves him - a creature of intimacy, light, and levity - almost standoffish and fearful. On good days, he is charismatic and welcoming, even a bit youthful ; though at his worst, he becomes scornful, tyrannical, and distant.Positives: Although he can be moody, he often falls on the better side of things more than the reverse, being generous, whimsical, openhearted and generally quite friendly.Negatives: When the worst of his moods reveal themselves, so do a whole other part of him ; the Sun is ultimately a star bound for supernova, his wrath is wholly explosive and he - himself - is equally as dangerous no matter how kind.
Alignment: Neutral - Good.Myers - Briggs: ENFJ.Major Arcana: The Sun ( Reversed ) ; The Emperor ( Upright ) ; Judgement ( Upright ).Violent? Occasionally.Smokes || Drinks || Drugs: Occasionally || Rarely || Never.Mental: A morbid fixation, a weighted mentality always present with the fact he is bound for inevitable destruction ; nightmares when sleep does come which prompt him to forgo sleep at all.

Section iv. Abilities
Pyromancy
Soll, rather appropriately, has the ability to freely wield fire. From small displays such as simply igniting his plumes or sputtering puffs of fire, he is also capable of engulfing his entire person in flame. Soll is capable of discharging solar flares or comet-like structures, perhaps even conjuring small spears of fire to hurtle at foes.
Skill โ Astral Projection & Telepathy (ADVANCED)
Skill โ Interdimensional Travel (INTERMEDIATE)
Skill โ Transfiguration (INTERMEDIATE)
Attribute: Minor Ubiquity & Omniscience โ Soll uses this attribute sparingly for such a prominent being in the System. Cognitions, both perceived and inferred, are utilized to both his and everyone elseโs advantage despite his more aggressive baser nature. His capability to not necessarily have a hand in things, but to penetrate through the threads of the System with his own presence is astounding. The Sun tends to use his omniscience in terms of guidance and being sufficient for those in his stead.


Section i. Basics
Name: Isa.Nickname(s): None.Birthdate: March 7th.Age: Twenty-Five ( 25 ).
Gender || Pronouns: Male โ He || Him.Orientation: Demiromatic || Grey-Asexual.==Species:== Nobody ( Former ) โ Human.Faceclaim? Self.

Section ii. Appearance
Height: 5' 10''. || 177.8 cm.Build Perhaps due to his past tasks, Isa's form is a great contrast to that of his friend. With a form less agile and more sturdy, Isa has a muscular and strong frame, built for the bout.Eyes Like "sea-glass" ; a pale hue somewhere 'tween green and blue.Hair: Dark blue frayed tresses, pushed back neatly from the crown; shorter and spiked atop the head, falling into longer strands over the shoulders and down the back. Often left straight and loose, but may sometimes be pulled into a braid.Complexion: Fair.Markings: The predominant one is the X-shaped scar breaking over his face 'tween the eyes; a potential remainder ( or reminder ) from his past, it still has not faded. Generally, there are other battle-scars elsewhere, customary to his once-existence, those however are faint and not as nameable.
Distinguishing trait(s): Circling 'round is the looming - yes, looming - presence of his magic, an almost unsavory but unshakeable and unmistakable air ( though not as definitive as it once was as a Nobody, it still remains presently in sobered notes ).Apparel: Casual clothing most often ; dark blues or purple and black are occasionally paired with softer blues or white ; a zipped coat with a tall collar, emblazoned with a crescent, coupled alongside dark jeans and boots.Accessories: Minor piercings in each ear ; A broach in the emblem of a moon courting a star.

Section iii. Personality
Overall: Dissimilar to his Nobody counterpart, Isa is by and large more open, more expressive, even cheeky or coy at times. But there is a greater part of him that is somber and reserved, refusing to embrace his newfound emotionality ; he never lost the complex exterior, a front cast in an impassable calm and near-immovable quiet. Try as he like, there are just some things that have not changed. Though not any longer a miser of the once-consuming anger, it is obvious he is worn, in more ways than one.Positives: At his best, Isa can seem in parts adventurous, reflecting Lea as they once had been ; although solitary by nature, he makes for excellent, intelligent company that never tires ; emotionally engaging.Negatives: Introspective to a fault, Isa tends to become absorbed all too often in his memories ; Isa often has a note of melancholia in what he does.
Alignment: Lawful - Neutral.Myers - Briggs: INFP.Major Arcana: The Moon (Upright), The Fool (Upright), Death (Upright).Violent?

Name: "Axel" โ Lea.Nickname(s): None.Birthdate: August 8th.Age: Twenty-Five ( 25 ).
Gender || Pronouns: Male ( fluid ) โ He || Him ; although obviously comfortable presenting as masculine, Lea is also comfortable presenting as female or feminine in the right company.Orientation: Demiromatic || Pansexual.==Occupation:== Keywielder.==Species:== Nobody ( Former ) โ Human.Faceclaim? Self.
Section ii. Appearance
Height: 6' 0''. || 182.8 cm.Build: A form complimentary for speed and dexterity, Lea is agile ( though not entirely "thin" ), with strong limbs, and a face with angular, almost sharp features.Eyes: Thin and slant, lightly lined with deep red hue ; "feline-esque" ; green.Hair: A brilliant burst of bright red mane from a widow's peak, styled away from the face in spikes and lengthening to touch the shoulders.Complexion: Sun-loved with scatterings of faint freckles over the nose and shoulders ; tanned.Markings: A few scars here or there.
Distinguishing trait(s): An aura of constant warmth, distinguishable 'tween moods ( warmer the more intense, for instance ).Apparel: Casual clothing most days, cut from cloth of darker tones ( greys, blacks, deep reds and oranges ) ; a hooded vest, plaid shirt below, black jeans and heeled boots.Accessories: The checked scarf he wore as a kid returns, set neatly - though still frayed - 'round his neck. The once-in-awhile dose of golden jewelry.

Section iii. Personality
Overall: Lea, with his heart restored, is threaded with a deep thread of remorse, even guilt. Once striking confidence now buckles under the weight of his past crimes ; his vibrance tarnished in some undeniable way despite how terribly he puts on the airs otherwise. His emotionality comes in bursts ; sudden, unintended flickers. He does as he can to avoid it. Even so, parts of his old self has, too, returned ; Lea is still bold, still determined, still a spirited fire - now, more a comforting hearth than a dangerous blaze.Positives: Lea is often described as "charming", with an infectious liveliness despite his worrying ; he remains optimistic, remains loyal and loving.Negatives: As a fire, he is restless, sometimes being "too hot" for others to be around.

Section i. Basics
Name: ( Lord ) Frith.Nickname(s): None.Birthdate: None.Age: An eternal sort, there seems no quantifiable age for such a figure ; ancient.Gender || Pronouns: Male โ He || Him.
==Orientation:== Ambiguous, never cared to align himself with anything nor does he show any preferences one way or the other ; he is not particularly sex nor romance favorable in most settings, lending to a rather isolated lifestyle.==Species:== Creator-god ; Sun-spirit & Sun-embodiment ; patriarch to all living things in the realm of our universe.Faceclaim? Self.

Section ii. Appearance
Height: Approx. 5 ft.Build: A hefty, chimeric sort of creature, much larger than a normal rabbit would be ; gives the impression of towering over his subjects ( much as he likely should ), he is fraught with strength, resilience, and an unearthly power reflected in every movement be it strike or stroke.Eyes: Amber / deep-red ; intelligent, all-seeing.Fur: White-gold ; reflective of his empyreal aura.
Distinguishing Trait(s): He appears to have a โcollarโ of thicker fur โround the neck and befalling the chest ; each paw-fall is marked by a spark of light, charming the earth with brightness for each step he takes ; the aura he exudes is of pure might, pure light - radiant as the sun he embodies, emboldened by those around him and the strength of their faithfulness ; verily, he does not quite blend in with the rest, and never could no matter how strong his magics ; he's a voice that echoes telepathically, resonate and deep-noted ; although mostly lapine in shape, Lord Frith looks more BESTIAL in form, boasting wings and a crown of antlered-horns.Markings: None.
Note: Frith โ being the father to all creatures on earth โ is likely capable of taking any shape he pleases, great or small, human or non. For the scope of the Watership Down story, I elected to give him a lapine shape in most instances ( though by request or circumstance will decide to write him otherwise ). Typically when he wants to more easily deliver a message, it will be by way of his ORIGINAL SHAPE , the Sun, thus offering a โvoice of Godโ.
Section iii. Personality
Overall: Frith, as his old-spoken name implies, is a peaceful entity and beyond that, a forgiving God ( within reason ). In the time he still spoke to his subjects, he was already wise, already aged ; he was perhaps even a bit temperamental. Frith, now so out of touch with his creations, lacks some of his once-typical warmth, rendered almost stoic and cold. No-nonsense about much of life these days, he can even come across as scathing or harsh ( however unintentional ) . Frith retains his spirit, and while it seems muted, it still shines in times of necessity - bright, eccentric, generous.Positives: TBANegatives: TBA


Section i. Basics
Name: โInlรฉโ.Nickname(s): โThe Black Rabbitโ or rather, โThe Black Rabbit of Inlรฉโ.Birthdate: None.Age: An eternal sort, there seems no quantifiable age for such a figure ; ancient.Gender || Pronouns: Female ( doe ) โ She || Her ( It/Its also works when referencing the context of Frithโs death-messenger ).
==Species:== Came about around the same time Frith began making the realm, he deemed her his โdeath-messenger,โ the worldโs version of the grim reaper which takes and escorts souls into the peace of the afterlife ; moon-spirit, sometimes considered the antithesis of Frith or an omen.Faceclaim? Self.
Section ii. Appearance
Height: Typically approx. 5 ft. however, like her shape, her size can vary drastically.Build: As a doe, Inlรฉ is sleeker in shape and frame, but no less formidable ( no less intimidating to encounter ) ; towering, looming as a figure, with near-angular, smoke and shadow-spilling haunches and hide ; sometimes seen an amorphous smoke-shadow figure and nothing more.Eyes: Red and glowing.Fur: Smooth and black, reflective of the moonlight.
Distinguishing Trait(s): Despite being a messenger of oneโs oncoming death, Inlรฉ has a soothing presence, capable of putting even the most frightened of creatures at ease in their final moments ; her fur shines with hints of silver like the moon ; her claws are much larger than most. In some stories she is said to have a furless face, made up of shadow and bone only ; in other stories she has a sweet, almost motherly countenance that offers you a place in her Shadow Realm amid the ranks โ a place of HONOR . Many have said her appearance would change depending on your sins ( being the worse for a worse life lived ) ; sheโs a voice that echoes like a spirit, travels the winds.Markings: None.

Section iii. Personality
Overall: Contrary to what some may believe of her, the Black Rabbit is no savage entity nor wicked spirit ( no matter what her unearthly, frightening appearance may say ). Her temperament is docile, for the most part ; a loyal and dutiful messenger and emissary of Frith, Inlรฉ is an extension of the NATURAL ORDER โ as there is no life, without death. Inlรฉ, while capable of great rage, only ever exerts force where it is truly justified. She is, above most things, peaceful and serene ; a gentle guide into the Shadow Realm where souls go to rest.Positives: Oftentimes friendly, hosts favor with Frith ; capable of giving a calm to those around her despite neglecting to understand social cues.Negatives: TBA.

Name: Spyro.Nickname(s): None.Birthdate: Spring.Age: Generally considered a "teenager" ( or rather, "young" ) by dragon-age standards ; VERSE DEPENDENT.Gender || Pronouns: Male โ He || Him.
==Species:== A Dragon โ Specifically, a once-every-some odd thousand years sort of purple dragon.==Education:== Tutored all through adolescence by the Elders ; a curriculum of magic, realm history, leadership, and other general academics taught to most other dragonlings of the time.Occupation: Guardian & "Hero" โ Realm denizen in - training.Faceclaim? Self.

Section ii. Appearance
Height: 4.5 ft. by the shoulder ( give or take ).Build: A rather smallish dragon but with a big heart and big personality. Colored purple and orange, Spyro is hard to miss amongst other dragons of blue, green, or red. With a somewhat lithe and stocky frame, Spyro makes his heroic feats look quick and effortless ( for the most part ). Compared to the older dragons he meets, his features are youthful and more expressive.Eyes: Big and round ; dark violet.Wings: Like the rest of his stature, Spyro's wings are small and better equipped to expertise gliding and stunts compared to distanced flying. They're skinned with yellow-orange membrane and a darker red-orange webbing.
Scales: Smooth and sturdy ; a vibrant violet hue broken by larger, bulkier plates of orange over his chest and underbelly.Horns: A lighter orange - yellow ; standing slightly crooked atop his head.Distinguishing Trait(s): A crest of vibrantly colored spines atop the head, trailing smaller down the neck before becoming more sparse down the length of his backside and tail.Markings: Scattered over his normal purple hide are darker splotches / scales sort of like large freckles.

Section iii. Personality
Overall: Teetering between humble and cocky, Spyro is something of a normal adolescent. While not oblivious to danger, he has a habit of charging his way into action, both showing off shades of courage and bull-headed recklessness. He is known to be headstrong, eager, and even arrogant with a spontaneous and spitfire demeanor. At times he is can be ascribed as being mischievous.Positives: Oftentimes friendly, playful, and outgoing ; known for his shows of heroism and willingness to help others despite the stakes.Negatives: Can be taken as over-confident and bratty with a tendency to find himself in trouble for such overzealous, reckless feats.
Section iv. Abilities
