✰ ⸻ 𝐏𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐄𝐓 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐎𝐍𝐒 ! ༄
headcanon prompts based on the planets ( plus the sun & moon ) and what they symbolize within astrology. each have more than a few topics, feel free to edit as you see fit. for more understanding of these planets, visit this website for help. have fun with these !
𝟎𝟏. 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐔𝐍 !
( 𝗌𝗒𝗆𝖻𝗈𝗅𝗂𝗓𝖾𝗌 : ego, basic personality, consciousness, vitality, staminia. )
how is your muse as a person ? do they think highly of themselves or are they pretty humble ? what’re they like when meeting someone for the first time ? are they an individual who you’d say is pretty aware of their surroundings and themself, and knows just what they want from life ? give us a peak through the veil of just who your muse is. only a peak !
𝟎𝟐. 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐌𝐎𝐎𝐍 !
( 𝗌𝗒𝗆𝖻𝗈𝗅𝗂𝗓𝖾𝗌 : unconsciousness, emotions, instincts, habits, moods. )
is your muse an emotional person ? do they feel deeply or not enough ? if so, go into depth. are they controlled by their instincts, do they listen to what their gut is telling them or do they let their head rule instead ? do they have any cute, or maybe unhealthy habits ? what are their moods like ? how do they handle random mood swings ?
𝟎𝟑. 𝐌𝐄𝐑𝐂𝐔𝐑𝐘 !
( 𝗌𝗒𝗆𝖻𝗈𝗅𝗂𝗓𝖾𝗌 : mind, communication, intellect, reason, language, intelligence. )
would you say that your muse is strong minded ? are they easily persuaded or drawn off of their own path or hard to reason with ? are they good at communicating their feelings, wishes, and goals or do they struggle with the general form of communication ? are they easily understanding of both other people and matters out with their own control ? would you consider them intelligent, book smart, street smart, and morally smart ?
𝟎𝟒. 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐒 !
( 𝗌𝗒𝗆𝖻𝗈𝗅𝗂𝗓𝖾𝗌 : attraction, love, relationships, art, beauty, harmony. )
what is your muse ’ s opinion on love ? what are they like in a relationship ? both good and bad. what do the seek for in a relationship ? what type of people are they attracted to ? could be romantically, sexually, or even spiritually ? do they seek someone similar to themselves or someone vastly different ? what does beauty mean to them ? do they associate the word with appearances ? souls ? what does the word ‘ harmony ‘ mean to them ?
𝟎𝟓. 𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐒 !
( 𝗌𝗒𝗆𝖻𝗈𝗅𝗂𝗓𝖾𝗌 : aggression, sex, action, desire, competition, courage, passion. )
is your muse subtle when it comes to things they want ? are they passionate about the things they do, so much so it could come off as aggressive ? perhaps obsessive ? what gives your muse passion ? what makes them competitive, what gives them courage ? how do they express these, by words ? actions ? what is your muses sexual energy like ? are they a sexual person ? the planet mars represents sexual energy, whilst venus represents romantic energy, so talk a little about what they look for sexually, to please themselves and others.
𝟎𝟔. 𝐉𝐔𝐏𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐑 !
( 𝗌𝗒𝗆𝖻𝗈𝗅𝗂𝗓𝖾𝗌 : luck, growth, expansion, optimism, abundance, understanding. )
is your muse a lucky person ? do things randomly tend to go their way without much effort, or do they have to work for bad luck ? when was the moment in your muses life that they had to grow up, a situation where they just knew it was time for them to mature ? perhaps a traumatic event, maybe even an exciting one ! has your muse found their happiness in life ? their purpose ? if so, when and how did that happen ? what gives your muse confidence, what makes them optimisitc ? or are they pessimistic ? what makes their life purposeful ?
𝟎𝟕. 𝐒𝐀𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐍 !
( 𝗌𝗒𝗆𝖻𝗈𝗅𝗂𝗓𝖾𝗌 : structure, law, restriction, discipline, responsibility, obligation, ambition. )
what does your muse fear ? what do they worry about ? what restricts them ? what exactly keeps them bound to reality ? what are their responsibilities ? do they have any obligations ? maybe to work ? another person ? do they have a set routine ? what does the word ‘ law ‘ mean to them ? unfortunately this beautiful planet can create strain and stress, so does your muse stress easily ? do they struggle with anxiety or similar issues ? if so, how do they deal ? saturn is the planet of reality, which is hard to face. does your muse face their issues head on, or do they tend to live in their own little world ?
𝟎𝟖. 𝐔𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐔𝐒 !
( 𝗌𝗒𝗆𝖻𝗈𝗅𝗂𝗓𝖾𝗌 : eccentricity, unpredictable changes, rebellion, reformation. )
this particular planet is the planet of sudden inspiration and change, so how does your muse handle unpredictable changes ? how do they handle planned and known changes ? what about inspiration ? do they do whatever inspires them in that moment, or is their inspiration something that takes time to develop and build ? what makes your muse special ? what makes them different and eccentric, if they are ? where do they create the most change ?
𝟎𝟗. 𝐍𝐄𝐏𝐓𝐔𝐍𝐄 !
( 𝗌𝗒𝗆𝖻𝗈𝗅𝗂𝗓𝖾𝗌 : dreams, intuition, mysticism, imagination, delusions. )
what are your muses goals ? what’s their dreams ? are they intuitive ? do they believe in spirituality and acknowledge that in every day life ? where in life are they most creative ? or are they perhaps, like the planet saturn, bound to reality and don’t believe or acknowledge such things ? those ruled by neptune tend to run away with their goals and ideas and often enough run too fast that they trip, so failure is familar to those who are ruled by neptune. does your muse get too caught up in unrealisitc ideas ? if so, how do they handle the disappointment ? those ruled by neptune are also full of child-like innocence, which can make them come off as naive. does your muse care what others think of them ?
𝟏𝟎. 𝐏𝐋𝐔𝐓𝐎 !
( 𝗌𝗒𝗆𝖻𝗈𝗅𝗂𝗓𝖾𝗌 : transformation, power, death, rebirth, evolution. )
what does ‘ power ‘ mean to your muse ? and how important is it to them ? is death something that frightens them ? how do they handle death ? do they believe in reincarnation ? rebirth doesn’t necessarily mean dying and being reborn as another person or thing, it can also mean something as simple as changing something drastic about themselves, so do they believe a person can truly change ? transform their flaws and be reborn as a better person ?

Honestly the ‘dating monsters’ trope feels like it’s less about being attracted to the Big Scary and more about a mutual recognition of the pain of society’s blind rejection of the foreign and atypical combined with a desire to find safety and stability in a way that conforms to one’s healthy individual needs and desires as opposed to the antiquated ideals of an irrelevant bygone era while seeking out meaningful intellectual and emotional engagement as well as an appreciation for unconventional beauty and wholehearted embrace of natural mortal flaws tbh

🤥🎂🌙🕷🔥💓💔 for Hitoshi pls!!!
🤥 LYING - are they good liars? do they have tells to show they're lying?
hitoshi rarely lies because hitoshi rarely speaks, though he does have proficiency in persuasion - this is because he's unfailingly polite and can ask for what is necessary, even if it requires some goading. but he does still hold onto his vow of (near) silence and his facial expressions are often hidden by his mask and his hat - and even without those, most people have difficulty reading his facial expressions anyway
🎂 BIRTHDAY CAKE - when is their birthday? do they like celebrating it?
his birthday is in the spring time, which is storm season where he's from. he enjoys celebrating it in reserved ways now, but as a kid his parents would throw lavish parties where they could network and show off their child(ren)
🌙 MOON - what is your oc's greatest wish? how far are they willing to go for it?
his greatest wish is for justice to be brought to the person responsible for his brother's fate. and he's willing to take it into his own hands if necessary - and it most likely will be necessary
🕷️ SPIDER - what is their biggest fear? do they have any irrational / mundane fears?
his biggest fear is losing loved ones - something that has, unfortunately, come to pass. his mundane fears are more like...getting sick, he doesn't do well with that, though it's not really a fear
🔥 FIRE - do they have any self destructive tendencies? what habits do they have that hinder them from becoming their best self?
oh...this is a very good question! i'm not sure exactly what bad habits he has other than being a protective mess when it comes to shilah, which can blind him to opportunities for other things as he's fixated on her. that and he continuously beats himself up for the loss of his brother as well, so that guilt is a self-destructive tendency as well
💓 BEATING HEART - what gets their heart racing?
in a good way? shilah, sunrises, sword practice, riding horses
in a nervous way? shilah, alarm bells, nervous animals, the feeling of being watched
💔 BROKEN HEART - what could their partner do that would absolutely break their heart?
cheat on him. breaking that trust and tentative self-love that he has for himself because of her, it would shatter him
+ send me an emoji!

5,7,12,29,35,42,55, 69 👀
i shall do this bunch for oberon as well!
5. is there something they want to be known for?
oberon wants to be known for their work ethic, for their loyalty, and for their honesty.
7. there’s a magic item (or technological innovation, or special resource) made just for them—what is it?
oooOOOOOO now this is intriguing - i think it would be an improvement to their rapier, like a rapier that deals extra damage to chaotic and evil aligned beings - not just chaotic evil, but also chaotic good and chaotic neutral. I’d love to see the mechanics behind such a weapon considering there’s spells that can help you change alignments of creatures, and conditions that can change the alignment of creatures, so why not have a weapon that can sense that part of someone and act accordingly?
12. how have they altered their body? piercings, tattoos, biohacks, or other modifications—anything. why (or why not) did they (or someone else) make those changes?
they have not! they are used to being invisible so they don’t want to do anything to draw attention to themselves
29. what feelings do they internalize?
feelings of self-worth, feelings of loneliness, feelings of neglect all get internalized and recycled and kept around as trash diamonds
35. when did they feel loneliest?
probably…honestly once they got a little older, around like….15 or so? but still definitely in their teen years, was when the majority of the loneliness sunk in, but it hasn’t gone away, and it’s grown in different ways. so their loneliest is probably present day, but the loneliness began when they were around 15.
42. can they dance?
they can! they’ve been trained in all the classical dances with partners, so oberon knows how to lead and how to follow appropriately. very high society. anything else but that though, and they’re a little bit lost - though they are rather dexterous and a very quick learner, so they could pick it up by watching, if they had to.
55. they’re seeing their greatest wish come true—what’s happening?
there are two but i’ll give you one.
they are in the process of taking ownership of the raczyński estate and businesses. their parents will remain close by, but are officially retiring from the business aspect of their family name, instead looking to fully embrace the social component of being a noble in waterdeep. their father claps them on the elbow and tells them that he’s proud of them and their work; their mother stands, dewy eyed and yet with a warm encouraging smile, as they sign their names on the deeds, transferring ownership.
69. what’s one secret they don’t want getting out?
truly? just how crushingly lonely they feel. as someone in the upper crust of society within waterdeep, they don’t want for much save for companionship. and it’s not that his parents haven’t tried to set up preferable arrangements with their child and others, it’s just that they, for one reason or another, always fell through (sometimes oberon was being benevolent, but most other times they simply did not feel a connection).

1, 4, 9, 13, 14, 26, 37, 45 for oberon please!!!
ah oberon, my repressed valiant angel....🤍🪶🖤
1. what drives them? what’s their ultimate goal?
oberon finds themselves driven entirely by their staunch loyalty to their family and wanting to make them proud. their ultimate goal is to demonstrate to their parents that they can be trusted with the family business, and that they have earned their titles.
4. what one person, place, or thing do they love more than anything else?
this is tricky! the cheaper answer is ciastko, their fluffy companion, but in reality we really only have to go as far as to say it’s their family. as a whole, they really love their family. but also societal structures are probably a very very very close second.
9. when in their life were they most scared?
oh that’s a tough one…probably on some assignment that they were on for their mother, and it was a near death experience. oberon isn’t like, covered in scars, but they also aren’t the most heavily armored paladin in faerûn, so….people do get their hits in
but also, on a different level, anything that keeps oberon from just putting their head down and doing the work scares them. anything that implores them to look deeper scares them. dionysus would have a field day with this fae king-inspired paladin
13. what are some motifs you associate with them? did you intentionally bring in those motifs, or did it happen over time?
self-control as signified by tightly laced and buttoned clothing; dichotomous worldview as signified by a black and white color scheme (although i am also a sucker for black and white color schemes); repression as signified by gloves, cutting off personal touch and genuine contact with another
these three i had in mind when i was creating oberon, but i’m sure more will come up over time!
14. what keeps them up at night?
generalized social anxiety, for one. they have a very hard time relaxing in new places and situations without some measures of comfort from home - ciastko, their family, etc. this is in part why they’re 30 and still live in their parent’s estate, though they have traveled around much of the north doing errands and tasks for their family
26. what type of person pisses them off?
people who disrespect others just for the hell of it and people who ignore the boundaries of the social orders that make up society. that last category includes disrespecting people above them but also actively enacting in harmful practices to people below them.
37. if they’ve had one, what was their first kiss like?
they have not had their first kiss yet so uh….i’ll circle back around to this one once it happens!!
45. what lies do they tell themselves?
that they’re happy the way things are, in their personal life.

paladin trio - tanvir, cory, and carter: 12, 17, 26, 31, 40, 68
oh boy, really making me work for this one huh lol
ok im gonna try to put a readmore because it got a little long haha
🐅 Tanvir is my drow paladin of vengeance
🐮 Cory is my firbolg paladin (lvl 2 so no oath yet!)
👁🗨 Carter is my variant human paladin of the crown
12. how have they altered their body? piercings, tattoos, biohacks, or other modifications—anything. why (or why not) did they (or someone else) make those changes?
🐅 Tanvir — the most obvious change isn’t necessarily like a body mod? but he’s significantly scarred up on his torso from the Incident that led to him becoming a were tiger. He does also have a pierced ear but tbh it’s probably closed but because it’s been so long since he’s worn an earring.
🐮 Cory — no body mods or changes for Cory; although he’s definitely thought about getting a tattoo before, he never has.
👁🗨 Carter — uhhh nothing I can think of! besides of course the temporary tattoos of the script of a cursed book covering his body for some time…. He might be a little turned off at tattoos at this point tbh.
17. they’re crying—what did it take to make them cry?
🐅 Tanvir — It’s either tiny drops in the corners of his eyes because he’s feeling bittersweet or nostalgic, or he’s actually letting himself have his breakdown of the decade thinking about the people he’s lost and how much it would hurt to lose the people he currently has.
🐮 Cory — Despite feeling a lot of emotions all the time, Cory really doesn’t cry - unless of course, he’s drunk, in which case he could think about a baby animal and start crying.
👁🗨 Carter — Carter really doesn’t cry tbh, unless he’s like…. [redacted] if you know what i mean ;)
26. what type of person pisses them off?
🐅 Tanvir - people who are mean to his friends, transphobes, incels
🐮 Cory - people that are rude, people who litter, people who ask him “how’s the weather up there” because he doesn’t understand because the weather is the same
👁🗨 Carter - anyone that insults Circe, people who consistently ask him what’s under the helmet, people who are rude to horses
31. do they respond well to praise? how about criticism?
🐅 Tanvir - praise: he does a lot better with accepting it now than he used to! but he still gets kinda awkward about it and tries to brush it away. criticism: depends on who it’s coming from! if he cares about their opinion he can sometimes take it a little too hard, but if he doesn’t care about them… then he literally gives no shits
🐮 Cory - praise: oh it’s like crack to him. he blushes very easily and it makes him feel all warm and happy. criticism: he may die a little internally, but he really tries to use any feedback to improve himself and not make the same mistakes again!
👁🗨 Carter - praise: he doesn’t know what to do! he isn’t used to it!! he’s really awkward about it tbh, but with circe he just… completely melts. criticism: you know that picture of the stick figure without a face but you can feel the unimpressed exhaustion? that.
40. if you had to remake this character right now, how would you change them?’
this question is really difficult!!! im not really sure id change any of them like that, because i feel like they grow and change over time whether i like it or not lol but here are some thoughts:
🐅 Tanvir - he deserved to multi class bard i’m just gonna say it. he’s living his best life in some au’s i tell you what
🐮 Cory - lol tbh i would have rerolled his stats i think… i think maybe i rolled like, right above the cutoff or something? poor guy. but i’ll just have to get inventive with leveling up i suppose!
👁🗨 Carter - oh boy idk… i made him for a one shot (which was soooo fun) and im not sure if there was really anything i would want to change? id love to get to play him for another one shot tho, and figure him out more!
68. where’s their home?
🐅 Tanvir - he is from new haxon, on the coast of the xhorhasian empire, but he currently resides in rosohna, the capital
🐮 Cory - lil man is from bumblefuck nowhere and is honestly a little overwhelmed at his big fancy college strixhaven! but he’s getting more comfortable now that he has friends :)
👁🗨 Carter - the only home he’s ever known is waterdeep, and the forsaken keep that he grew up in and continues to work for into adulthood
thanks for the ask! <3
#they are BABIES#i'm happy to provide another one shot to have carter in because i loved him so much#also i can't wait to see what cory's oath is!!! if we get to level 3 without getting kicked out of school i mean#poor carter being turned off from tattoos although it does make sense#and the CRYING answer#ugh i love#tanvir did deserve to multiclass bard#as he should have#sometimes multiclassing bard is just what healing looks like#c: strixhaven#c: scrivener's tale

3,6 for Astraea and St. Valentine 👀
3. can they accept failure?
astraea: nope. to fail is to risk becoming useless and to be useless is to be in a very, very vulnerable position, which she has no intention on becoming. see my tags here for more info.
st. valentine: not in the slightest. ze held hirself to high standards.
6. how have they changed in the last year? how about the last five years?
astraea: lets see, she's worked for her current company for about 5.5 years, so she's been independent for all that time - away from her circle and away from her family. she started as a barista, if you can believe that, and worked her way up from there, so she's in a far more ambitious position now with access to more sensitive documents but other than that she's all but the same.
in the past year she's started hooking up with rafa, so that's something - but they've still gone pretty slow and kept it pretty secret up until this point (this point being getting stuck in barovia).
st. valentine: honestly ze just got a little bit more confident in hir own abilities, and in hir place in waterdeep. hir songs got better, hir magic got stronger, etc. but ze died so that growth can't really be expanded upon, unfortunately.

69 for all of your characters please (or at least all you want to do i guess)
69. what’s one secret they don’t want getting out?
astraea: i think honestly her whole childhood is something she doesn't want becoming public knowledge. she doesn't want to be treated like a charity case, but at the same time she doesn't like when people assume that her childhood was perfectly fine. it's a mixed bag, but i think that's the secret she's the most protective over.
val: this would require her to know more about herself but i think in general her emotional vulnerabilities are secrets she doesn't want getting out. like who/what she cares about, mostly.
ravin: i think it's the fact that they actually weren't a virgin when they came to strixhaven - they like having the air of mystery and confidence and this sort of "unnamed body count" about them, but in reality they've only ever been with two people - cory and a friend from high school.
naoise: he's kind of an open book to be honest, you just have to know the right questions to ask. but i think, like val, what he guards the most is what matters to him - especially in his line of work, caring about things can be dangerous.
sybil: just how much sybil was in love with mythia, i think, is her greatest shame, so she strives to keep it secret as much as she can.
