Paris Rhodes Bio

Full Name: Paris Alexei Rhodes

Gender: Male

Sexuality: Bisexual

Shippable?: Very

Height: 6'2 (188cm)

Patron Arcana: TBD

Personality: Paris is a hands-on sort of person with a thirst for new ideas and experiences; he loves taking things apart to see how they work, or building new things. He's naturally creative and has no problem with using trial and error to problem-solve. He also has a wanderlust and impulsive energy that can't seem to be sated. He's quite sociable, despite being introverted. He loves teasing the people close to him, but is easily flustered when said behavior is directed at him. He's very loyal to the few people he lets into his inner circle.

Paris is also very stubborn and prone to being insensitive at times. He keeps his emotions and personal life incredibly private, making him difficult to get to know. He has a fear of commitment, and often leaves relationships once they start to get comfortable (but if presented as a challenge, he could be persuaded to stay). He's very prone to risky behavior, especially when he's bored--which happens a little too easily.

Magic Abilities:

Botanokinesis: Paris can control plants. This includes being able to summon, mutate, grow, or otherwise manipulate any manner of plant or vegetation.

Herbalism: Paris has extensive knowledge of plants and their properties, and is able to use this knowledge to create various potions and medicines.

Geokinesis: Paris can somewhat manipulate earth, but this ability is fairly limited.

Protection: Paris can use painted glyphs and runes to set shielding spells around a small area. These spells function as a blacklist, disallowing those with harmful intentions to cross.

Familiar: Paris has a close magical bond with his familiar, Hermes; a large Galbradan eagle-owl. They can communicate telepathically, and being in close proximity to Hermes boosts Paris's magic.

History:

Paris was born in Hellenes, the capital of the Republic of Galbrada, to a Galbradan priestess and a minor politician. He was unplanned, leaving his parents unsure of what to do with him; he had two older siblings who already had set plans for their lives, and the parents hadn't anticipated needing to come up with a goal to raise a third child for. They did their best to encourage him towards being a civil engineer, since he displayed a love of building as a young child, but he usually ended up doing his own thing instead. Often, this meant wandering away from the family's home and ending up in some sort of trouble.

At the age of 12, Paris was attending a formal event with his parents when he met Mórnkan Drakos, the 8 year old child of the richest family in the Republic. He found her interesting, especially because they had similar taste in books, and the two quickly became friends. They remained good friends and pen pals for many years.

When Paris turned 16, his parents sent him to the University of Hellenes to study for a few years. It was during this time that he took a great interest in botany; before then, he thought his magic was fun, but ultimately trivial. Studying botany gave him ample reason to strengthen his magic. During this time, he befriended an eagle-owl chick on campus, who he named Hermes and kept around as a friend. Despite his questionable work ethic, he graduated near the top of his class at age 22.

Shortly after graduating, Paris went back to his old trouble-finding ways, now aided by his stronger magic. This culminated in him being caught in the crossfire of attempted arson. He wasn't actually involved for once, but was arrested anyway. His parents decided that enough was enough after bailing him out, and sent him away to travel. They hoped it would help ground him. His travels did not have the intended effect, instead causing him to develop a taste for raucous parties and fling relationships.

At age 30, he found himself in the small city-state of Vesuvia and decided to stay for longer than usual. He currently bounces from job to job in order to pay for a little apartment in Center City.

Trivia:

He has the same MBTI type as Asra. Coincidentally, ISTP is the exact opposite of Morgan's MBTI type.

He's surprisingly strong for someone with scholarly tendencies. He likes to joke that he trains his muscles in order to be able to pick up Morgan.

His voice claim is still up in the air, but a strong contender is Christian Bale as Howl Pendragon Jenkins in Howl's Moving Castle.

His favorite fruit is pomegranate.

He has almost certainly hooked up with Julian at some point.

He and Morgan used to be in a friends-with-benefits relationship, but it didn't last very long.

He despises mushrooms; they're the only plant-like thing he can't control.

Alright I'm gonna get back to making bios bc I need to flesh out my characters, and Zahra, Atlas, and like 4 other characters have very, well, odd sounding bios. Like it doesn't even sound like I wrote them, it sounds like me from like, 6-7 years ago. Which is not how old those posts are. So I hope to mend that with some better accuracy for my loves.

Also, Happy Pride!!! Almost every single one of my characters are queer or trans so a happy celebration to them, and I suppose me as well, since I am too! I'm wishing you all have a great pride month, and a reminder that this is a safe space for all queer and trans individuals alike.

Astarium Sea Charm

their outfit is sort of meant to imitate a jelly fish, the shirt being based off this dress:

I find it funny cause I said I'd slow down on the Astarium content for now because I felt like I was doing too much, but because their the only Fandom related character I have, and their the only one that gets attention on my blog anymore.

gently

prompt: @bastart13 did such a beautiful piece for my favorite underrated baker and i needed to pay tribute! this would be taking place pretty soon after the apprentice is revived and asra is reintroducing them into their old life (gently by pretoria)

fandom: the arcana

pairing: Selasi x Apprentice

word count: 2430

warnings: a healthy sprinkling of pre-canon angst, also i wrote all this really quickly so it might be rough around the edges but by god it’s got heart

There’s a million voices, a million smells, a million colors bombarding your senses all at once. Your grip tightens on Asra’s hand. He catches your eye. “Are you alright, MC?” he asks.

You lean into his shoulder. “It’s so much,” you tell him.

“I’m sorry, this was a bad idea. It’s just that we��re running low on groceries, and I don’t want you to go hungry… would you rather I leave you at home next time I have to go out?”

You shake your head. Strangers are brushing against you as they walk, and every touch sends a ripple of nerves down your spine.

He sighs and wraps a protective arm around your shoulders. “I think I have an idea. I can hurry and pick up our groceries in the busiest part of the market, and you can stay with a very good friend of mine.”

Guys I need more Selasi fics

⚠️

For Atlas?

⚠️ - If this oc came with a warning sign, what would it be?

Don't follow them around unless your looking for violence I think. As he is a mercenary, he's naturally spawned in trouble, and it is a very dangerous trade to take on. So it's probably best to listen to her when she tells you not to follow them anywhere unless he tells you to.
