BEAUTIFUL PERSON AWARD! Once you are given this award you’re supposed to paste it in the asks of 8 people who deserve it. If you break the chain nothing happens, but it's sweet to know someone thinks you’re beautiful inside and out! 🥰

Yoooooooooou are one of my favorites

alltheprettylightsinthesky: Hey, you never know. Genetics are weird. All of my mom's were recessive and my dad's were dominant (brown hair, brown eyes, etc), but I got all the recessive genes instead (blue eyes, blonde hair, etc.) did get his butt chin tho, so who knows?

-- I mean, you’re right: there’s a small chance. Very true! But it’s like...tiny. He’s hoping she has my eyes. And I’m just like, “....your entire family has had brown eyes for generations except for one great grandpa. THE CHANCES OF THAT HAPPENING...” but I don’t want to burst his bubble. My grandparents, on the other hand, bless their old somewhat racist hearts, are still deluding themselves into believing my child is gonna pop out white as all get out with green eyes and straight blonde hair. Like...no. She’s mixed; you don’t get to ignore that she’s half black. And I don’t want her to be as white as Casper the ghost as I am. I burn while walking out to my car during the summer.

Bard, fighter, monk, ranger, wizard. ;)

For Candle - DS&D

Bard: Can your character recall a time that music has had a special power over them? What was this song, where did they hear it, and did it affect them positively, negatively, or neutrally?

     Candle adores playing music for people. He had a very formative scene with music watching a jester distract an entire crowd of people-guards included-while a team of pickpockets methodically cleaned the entire group out.

Fighter: What cause does your character primarily fight for?

     Candle fights for survival in deathly situations, for good reason to help people, and for petty petty revenge.

Monk: What natural physical abilities does your character possess? Can they perform acrobatic stunts, can they effectively punch an opponent, or can they do nothing but cower in fear when danger comes?

      oh boy Candle is very athletic. All the Dexterity and you’ll always find him on top of a tree or building. *he likes to be tall* He can run v fast, like, your kitten just stole bacon out of your sandwich fast.

Ranger: What one thing does your character hunt for - money, a family heirloom, a source of power, a lost love, a missing relative, etc.?

      Candle likes -coins- not just hoarding wealth, he likes oddly shaped coins, special coins, things that aren’t purely currency (although he’ll have at least one of every type of coin currency of the places he visits).

Wizard: What does your character consider more important - natural talent or work ethic? Regardless of their convictions, do they rely on their training or their talent more often than not?

   He’s pretty even between the two. Naturally athletic, but his grandma taught him very well to be thorough in his own training and to take every possibility he could to better his own skillsets.
