What You Missed: TDY Act 2

My name is Angela, the director of this Library. I have some spare time, so I figured I would lend you my assistance again.

Follow me.

(Please refer to the content warnings for each chapter on Ao3 before reading.)

Chapter 11 - The Reception of Seven Association

The hydrangea icon for Bookshelf Interlude was Easter egging Gea's appearance and implying his death in the story.

We first heard of "S. Fujiwara" in Chapter 5.

Zinnia's introductory paragraph parallels Mari's original introduction in What Lies Beneath.

Mari and Zinnia's last name, Perrault, comes from Charles Perrault, the author of Little Red Riding Hood.

Gea's final line directly parallels Mari's statement in the penultimate chapter of the Kingdom Arc.

Chapter 13 - A Winter Chill

It isn't mentioned by name, but the flowers Drosera originally gifts Narcissus are gladiolus flowers, most specifically the chartreuse coloring. Gladiolus represents things like strength, endurance, pride, moral integrity...

The second and third flowers Drosera gifts are red roses and baby's breath. Red roses are passion and romance, whereas baby's breath represent sincerity, purity, and love again.

Drosera's mentioned to wear daffodil yellow overalls--Narcissus' flower. How romantic.

Drosera's cat's name is Nighthawk, a reference to the painting by Edward Hopper, which long-time readers will know is one of my favorites. It represents the need for togetherness, the mundane, in a closed off society.

Valerian and Ivy being mentioned at the tail end of Narcissus' dream sequence was to clue the reader into the fact it was a dream: timeline-wise, it doesn't add up.

The description of Drosera's rotting body is a reference to Valerian's talk with Ivy in the Kingdom Arc. (...although it's also just how a body decomposes... but who asked me?)

Chapter 14 - Scarlet Goodbye

The other red Color they're referring to is not the Red Gaze.

Leander is referencing his speech at Chrys' funeral in What Lies Beneath.

Chrys' last name, Faust, was foreshadowed with this line.

Ambrose quotes herself from the Darkest Twilight.

Leander's note was first revealed in the Kingdom Arc.

Chapter 15 - The Weight of Love

The drinks "the woman" orders for herself and Leander are Shark Attack, and Pop My Cherry.

Larkspur is a purple, incredibly toxic (when consumed) plant. Two milligrams is enough to kill an adult. Much less for a child.

Chapter 16 - King in Yellow

Anem mentions, and reveals that he has been on a WARP Train in Chapter 5.

Centra Fujiwara is officially introduced, and confirms that there are indeed four Fujiwara siblings.

We learn Anem's last name, Carpenter. As for why... Jesus was a Carpenter, wasn't he? (I think I'm funny.)

The snack Hastur has at the end of the chapter is Centra's, although the three of them forgot to close it. (I assumed W Corp couldn't reverse what happens to the snacks. There's no bio data for that, and in universe it could be easily written off. It was to reflect that, even when your memories are erased, there would still be a small fragment of them in your heart.

Chapter 17 - Unconditional

"Adele Bloch-Bauer" is a reference to the painting Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I by Gustav Klimt. It's also referred to as "The Woman in Gold". King of Greed's design seems to be taken from it.

Every author has their own language, and the readers learn it overtime. In Chapter 15, we built the association that larkspur is a "negative affection", hence why it's reused in Chapter 17.

Viscaria and Forge's reaction to Press' recollection of her injury is because ruptured globe is a very severe eye injury. If you don't seek emergency treatment, there's a very high chance you will lose vision in your eye. For reference, 30-40% of monocular blindness is caused by ocular trauma. There are some cases where this injury might heal on it's own, but I promise that it's few and far between.

The Book of Press was Easter egging TDY. It was actually written during the developmental stages.

Viscaria and Forge's reaction was to discovering the Book of a Lover was empty. (Press scribbling in the margins was a red herring.)

It was implied from the beginning of the chapter that the Book of a Lover would end up on the Floor of Religion. Don't ever, ever trust my throwaway jokes. I'm planning something evil with them.

Chapter 18 - Evergreen

Valerian's dream references the Darkest Twilight.

Narcissus and Valerian's conversation references Chapter 13.

"The Undertaker" is a reference to Technology, a poem written by Ambrose Bierce, mentioned in Chapter 13 by Mari and later discussed between Ambrose and Valerian. It's a satirical poem about the almost theatrical response to death in the Victorian era. In Chapter 18, Valerian takes the role of "the Undertaker".

The Undertaker references Valerian's Tales of Pruned Flowers.

The poem that the Undertaker quotes is Hermann Hesse's All Deaths. However, the poem goes unfinished.

Valerian, died anew as the Undertaker, parallels Rose's actions towards Mari's corpse in the Darkest Twilight.

Alstroemeria flowers represent strength, love, friendship and devotion. Also, go Google the meaning of "resupinate", if you don't already know it.

Chapter 19 - Devotion's Reward

Lonicera, Valerian's sister is officially introduced. Oh yeah, if you're curious, here's what she looks like! Reading this post means you get to see.

We finally see Forge and Valerian's first meeting, referenced in Chapter 1, Chapter 3, Chapter 12, as well as in this art.

Valerian's sacrifice parallels Forge's first time taking someone else's life.

Hastur's right. Valerian, what are you talking about? That's not light reading by stretch of the imagination.

Multi-chapter

We see Viscaria warn the others about Valerian three times, in Chapter 12, Chapter 17, and Chapter 19. Changing the wording from "Sailor take warning" to "Shepherd take warning" was foreshadowing that Anem would agree with Viscaria. (Sorry for the shitty editing. Tumblr only allows thirty images per post.)

Narcissus' Act 2 Insults:

Chapter 11, "The Reception of Seven Association"

“Her lapdog, you mean.” Narcissus interjects.

Chapter 12, "One Drink More"

Narcissus stands with her arms crossed, staring at Valerian’s ridiculous sitting position, “You look like an idiot when you do that, you know.” “No, you imbecile.” Narcissus replies, instantly. “No,” Narcissus says, for the eighth time. “You’re such a freak.” “Fuck’s sake.” Narcissus says, smacking Valerian in the head with her pillow. “You’re such an idiot.” “They’re siblings.” Narcissus says, and shakes her head. “You’re a fucking disaster when you drink, aren’t you?” “You’re such a freak.” She catches her breath, and says, “You’re such an idiot.”

Chapter 13, "A Winter Chill" (HEY IT'S CRAZY HOW NARCISSUS USES ALL THE SAME INSULTS ON DROSERA AS SHE DOES INFO TEAM HUH)

“You’re such an idiot,” she shakes her head, pulling the covers further over them both. She doesn’t bother to wipe the tears away, kissing Drosera again and again as she laughs, the whole world safely in her home, in her arms, “I love you too, you idiot.” Narcissus scrutinizes it under her harsh gaze, and then shrugs. “Well, whatever. It’s good you don’t have a hangover. I’m not helping you if it lasts all day. Ivy might, the doormat that she is.”

Chapter 18, "Evergreen"

“You’re such a nerd.” She says, rolling her eyes. “Dramatic ass,” Narcissus mumbles. Narcissus laughs. “You’re such a freak, captain.”

Chapter 19, "Devotion's Reward"

“You motherfucker!” Narcissus shouts, grabbing a nearby pillow and throwing it at Valerian’s face. “Yes, we fucking were! Where in the fresh fuck were you, you twat!?”

Narcissus Insult Count Act 2: 16

Total Insult Count: 26

Most Common Insult: Idiot (7 times), which, according to Google, is 26.923%.

That's all for now.

(Well, I said Act 2's What You Missed would be much longer than the first, didn't I? -Poet)

Yesenia & Larkspur || Ambrose Wedding Reception

There was no doubt that Yesenia could navigate events such as these with ease if she wanted to. Endlessly poised with a practised smile always hovering near her lips should it be needed. The problem was that she often struggled care enough about the opinions of others to bother feigning anything close to niceness. She could do it when she needed to but she’d learnt a long time again that a good impression wasn’t always necessary to achieve what she wanted. Intimidation and outsmarting or outmanoeuvring others was just as successful as charming or sweettalking them around to her will. Still, she made something of an effort to not insult others until they gave her reason to. Or to at least make her insult subtle enough that their vanity might not have allowed them to see it for what it was. She’d been on her way to fetch herself another drink when she caught sight of the little singer who’d been one of the few things to make the evening bearable. Compliments were hardly forthcoming from her but she tended not to withhold them either, especially when talent merited it. Somehow she’d always found it easier to give them to those that didn’t expect it from her. “I feel a must congratulate you on a wonderful set.” It was certainly something she’d be keen to listen to again. “Tell me, are you ever in the Northland?”

Anything But Ordinary

A/U Roman Reigns x OC fanfic Summary: Sierra Winters is normal girl, whose life is anything but ordinary. Her parents are notorious hunters of supernatural creatures. Once her parents catch a certain alpha, her life turns upside down. This story features other WWE superstars as supernatural creatures too. I sadly don't own WWE or Roman reigns (I wish I did) but I don't Word count: 2900+ Warnings: None other than one F-bomb I think.

Sierra's alarm went off at 7 am for another day of work. She spent her day taking care of the supernatural creatures her parents captured. Her family was notorious for kidnapping these creatures and holding them for testing. They caught all types of amazing creatures; vampires, werewolves, shapeshifters, and hybrids. Sierra could go on and on about all the intriguing creatures her parents brought back to the lab on a daily basis. Except for yesterday, her parents brought home something special, a purebred alpha male werewolf. A creature like him wasn't uncommon, one of her best friends in the lab was one, but this one, Sierra could tell that this one was different. His name was Roman Reigns and he was beyond gorgeous. His raven black hair was tied in a bun and his skin was a beautiful caramel color. He was very muscular and he had a huge tattoo that spread from his chest, all the way down his right arm. Sierra didn't get the chance to meet him yet, right when he arrived, he was taken to the maximum security cells because he was acting hostile. Sierra followed close behind his cage but her dad stopped her and told her to stay away from him until he calmed down. After Sierra ate her breakfast, she grabbed the cart she used for the food and began loading it with trays. Sierra grabbed her headphones off the counter and put one in her ear before pushing the cart into the lab. She started with Baron Corbin, he was an alpha male werewolf that was captured a couple months ago. "Good morning princess," Baron said grinning. Many of the creatures, including Baron liked Sierra and only Sierra because she brought food and was the only person that treated them like the people that they were. "Good morning Baron. How are you feeling, I know they put you through the ringer yesterday." Sierra said. Because Baron was an alpha, he was a common test subject and Sierra hated her parents for that. It wasn't fair that he and many others were going to spend the rest of their lives in these cells. "I'm fine now that you're here, means food," Baron muttered, looking down at the tray of food for him. Sierra smiled and handed the tray to Baron through the small gap in the cell door. "Enjoy. I'll be back for lunch at noon." Sierra said, with that, she turned and continued on to the other cells. The next one was Seth Rollins, he was a vampire who'd been caught two years ago. "Good morning Seth, how are you?" Sierra asked handing the tray to him. Seth was very quiet, he only ever spoke to Sierra, and when he did, it was either a couple words or a short sentence. She gave trays to Jimmy a werewolf, and Jey, Jimmy's twin who was also a werewolf; Alexa, a shapeshifter; Charlotte, a shapeshifter/vampire hybrid; and Becky, a werewolf/shapeshifter hybrid. After going through minimum security, Sierra walked down a different hallway, to go to maximum security.

Dean Ambrose was the first face Sierra saw in maximum security. He was a hybrid cross between a vampire and a werewolf. Dean was the only vampire/werewolf cross that they had at the moment and he was easily Sierra's best friend. She looked forward to seeing him every day and told him everything. Dean was just a little unstable which is what landed him in max. "Hey darlin' what's for breakfast today?" Dean asked. "Today? Only blood, you have testing." Sierra said, her voice low. She hated telling them when they had to be tested, it was easily the worst part of her job. Dean's face fell. "I do? They tested me a couple days ago. What the hell could they possibly want?" He asked. "I don't know Dean. But you better drink this fast, they're coming to get you in a couple minutes." Sierra said. "I'm sorry." "It's not you darlin'," Dean said. "I know that if this whole thing was up to you, I wouldn't even be in here." He said confidently. Sierra nodded and pushed the cart down the hall, giving trays to others before she stopped at Roman's cell. He was still trying to get out when Sierra got there. He was pulling on the bars that covered his small window. "You're not gonna get out. Everyone in here has already tried, and I've tried everything and can't get you out either." Roman's head snapped to look at Sierra and he stalked slowly towards the door. "Who are you? Where am I? Where's my pack?" Roman asked, obviously confused. "I'm Sierra. I'm gonna be bringing you your meals and helping if you need me for a while." Sierra said. "I'm sorry." She said quietly. "I've been captured?" Roman asked. "You... you're one of the Winters! You ruined my life!" Roman yelled at Sierra as he white-knuckled the cell bars. "Roman, please calm down,” Sierra said calmly, trying to not draw too much attention. “My parents captured you, not me. I would never." Sierra said trying to calm him down. Roman's pupils were completely blown and his sharp canine teeth had begun protruding from his gums. He was about to turn and Sierra had to stop it. "No, Roman. Don't, they'll test you." Sierra said she didn't think about what she did next. Sierra typed in the 6-digit pin code and opened the cell door. She stood on her toes and cupped Roman's cheeks in her hands. Sierra knew she was putting herself at risk but she didn't care. Her main concern was that Roman would be put through so many more unnecessary tests if he turned. Sierra looked into his eyes and watched as they changed back to normal. Luckily, Roman began to calm down when Sierra rubbed her thumb back and forth over his cheek. "You have to calm down. Please. I'll explain everything to you but you need to calm down first." Sierra's voice shook with her hands but she kept them on Roman's cheeks. Roman took a deep breath and because his turn was voluntary, he retracted it. His eyes went back to a deep brown and his teeth turned back to normal as well. Roman covered Sierra's small hands with his larger ones and lead her to his bed. Sierra explained everything to Roman as he ate his breakfast. She told him all about the different creatures that her parents captured and she explained all the different tests they were put through. "Purebred shapeshifters are tested every other week to test the progress of foxglove, a plant that disables their powers and weakens them, and it does it painfully." Sierra began, the last word of her sentence causing Roman to cringe slightly. "Purebred werewolves were tested every other week to test the progress of wolf's bane, a plant with the same purpose of the foxglove, and just as painful. That’s what my parents used on you, to knock you out and get you here. And purebred vampires were tested every other week to test the progress of larkspur, a plant with the same purpose of foxglove and wolf's bane, also just as painful as the other plants." She continued. "And since you're an alpha, you'll be tested twice a week because you're stronger than the betas and omegas in here." She said her voice barely above a whisper. "You gotta get me out. I can't do this. Please, I have to get back to my pack." Roman said, his hands squeezing Sierra's. "I've tried Roman. But this is a high-security lab. The cages only open for 5 minutes at 7 am, noon, and 6 pm for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And when the cages do open, they only open from the outside and they're heavily guarded 24/7. I can't get you out." Sierra said softly. Roman stared into Sierra's blue eyes and realized how beautiful she really was. Sierra's long, platinum blond hair was tied into two Dutch braids. Her blond hair and olive skin really accentuated and brought out her bright blue eyes. She was wearing a white t-shirt and a pair of light wash jeans with a pair of converse. She was dressed so simply but she looked so goddess-like in Roman's eyes. Sierra and Roman stared at each other for god knows how long, still holding each other's hands. Until they were interrupted by a shrill shriek that made them both jump slightly. "Sierra! Get out of there! He's dangerous!" Sierra's mom yelled. She scanned her ID card and the cage opened. Guards pushed roughly past Sierra to restrain Roman while two others held her arms tightly. "Roman!" Sierra yelled when she saw guards injecting him with wolf's bane. "You're hurting him!" She yelled before Roman let out a blood-curdling scream as he fell to the floor while the guards pulled Sierra out of the cage. "What were you doing in there? You could've been hurt." Sierra was in shock, she couldn't answer. Her mom opened the cage with a card. Why didn't she have a card? Was the card the key to save Roman and all the other creatures? Sierra's mind raced with thoughts as she stared wide eyed at her mom. "You know what, just go feed the rest of them." Sierra shook herself from her thoughts and went on to feed the rest of the creatures. Sierra spent the rest of breakfast thinking about the card. If she could get her hands on one, she'd be able to free everyone during the guard change. She had to get a card. Sierra finally got an idea and walked into her dad's office. "Dad?" She asked quietly. Her dad spun in his chair to face her and leaned against his desk. "What's up cupcake?" He asked nicely. Sierra cleared her throat and sat down on one of the chairs. "I was wondering when I'm gonna get an ID card. "I'm 22, that's old enough to have one." Sierra started. "You know, I was supposed to get one made for you this weekend." Sierra's dad said. "I guess I could do it now. It'll be done by tomorrow morning." Sierra smiled and hugged her father. She felt a little guilty because she was going to use this card to save Roman and everyone else, therefore, ruining all of her parent's research and their careers. But Sierra felt more guilt watching the creatures in their small cages, it was a prison and Sierra didn't like it. It was 8 am, which meant she had 4 hours until she could tell the creatures that they'd be saved by tomorrow. Sierra walked with more of a bounce in her step but she was stopped by more screams that echoed down the hallway. Usually, Sierra would ignore them or try not to listen, but these screams were different. They were closer than usual, they didn't come from the lab. Sierra’s head snapped toward the noise when she heard her name. It was Roman. Sierra sprinted down the hall, following the screams. Sierra came to a halt when she saw what the guards had done to Roman. She could see that he had a black eye and a gash on his lip that was bleeding badly. His breathing was shallow and Sierra could tell he was in pain. She could also tell that he was trying not to move due to the wolf's bane ropes that burned him with each extra movement. Sierra stood at Roman's cell door but she couldn't get in. It was way past 7:05, so the doors were locked and they would stay locked for the next couple hours and Sierra had no idea what to do next. But then she got an idea. Sierra sprinted back down the hall, out of maximum security, and to her dad's office. Luckily, he wasn't in his office which made Sierra's plan a whole lot easier. She began digging through his desk until she found exactly what she was looking for. Her father's ID card. She grabbed it and ran back down the hall to maximum security. Two guards stopped her but she held the card up and said Roman needed medical attention. The guards nodded and walked back to their posts. Sierra scanned the card and opened Roman's cell. She kneeled down beside his bed and began untying the ropes as quickly as possible. "Roman." Was all Sierra could say as she saw the burns that the wolf's bane left on his skin after pulling the ropes off of him. She pressed her forehead against his and held the back of his head with her hand. "I'm getting you out tomorrow. I promise." She whispered. Roman was too weak to really respond to what Sierra had just said, but she saw Roman's eyes light up. "How?" Roman asked, his voice gravelly and strained. Sierra smiled at Roman and helped him sit up. "Don't worry about it, just yet. But you need help, so come with me." Sierra said, she stood up and offered her hand to Roman. "Won't your parents kill me if I'm out of my cage?" Roman asked as Sierra lead him out of his cage and down the hall. "Woah. What the fuck? Let me out too!" Dean yelled. Sierra held tightly onto Roman's hand as she walked to Dean's cage. "Hey keep your voice down. He's hurt, I'm just helping him. Don't worry, you'll both be out for good tomorrow night." Sierra said. Dean's eyes lit up and he opened his mouth like he was about to say something but Sierra cut him off. "We have to go. I'll talk to you during lunch." Sierra said. Dean nodded, letting her and Roman walk away. When Sierra and Roman made it to the lab. Roman's eyes widened, he saw all the horrible tools Sierra's parents used on people like him. "Oh god Roman, don't look at that stuff," Sierra said as she squeezed his hand and lead him to another room with a doctor's table and some boxes of equipment. "Sit and be quiet, I'll be right back," Sierra instructed. Roman sat down on the table and watched Sierra close the door behind her, leaving Roman alone. Sierra came back into the room a few minutes later with a plastic container full of steak. "Eat this while I check you out," Sierra said. Roman gladly took the container and began scarfing down the steak. Sierra lifted his shirt and noticed all the scars from the ropes that were forming on his skin. She ran her fingers over one of the scars on his chest. The wolf's bane had seeped through his shirt and burned him, badly. "Roman..." She whispered. "I can't believe they did this to you. I'm so sorry." She said, tears beginning to well in her blue eyes. "Hey, it's okay. Look at me."Roman said. He hooked to fingers under her chin and lifted it. "I'm okay and this isn't your fault," Roman said as he stared into Sierra's glassy blue eyes. Sierra nodded and checked to make sure nothing on his body needed real medical attention before grabbing ace bandages to wrap around the horrible, bubbling burns. She pulled his shirt over his head and her eyes (and fingers) trailed right to the tattoo that covered a good portion of his chest. Sierra was lost in her own world when Roman cleared his throats and playfully raised his eyebrows at her. "Don't flatter yourself, Reigns." Sierra laughed as she rolled her eyes. "I'm just wrapping you up." She said in a playfully defensive tone. "You know you like the view." Roman retorted smiling down at Sierra as she began wrapping the bandage around his chest to cover the horrible burn there. Sierra only smiled and continued to wrap the bandage slowly around his chest, enjoying the warmth of his smooth skin. After finishing with the bandage on his chest, Sierra grabbed the second one and started carefully wrapping the other horrible burn on his shoulder. Roman watched intently as Sierra wrapped his shoulder. He noticed how her eyebrows creased slightly while she focused and how carefully her hands were moving because she didn't want to hurt him. "All done," Sierra said smoothing the bandage down before helping Roman back into his shirt. "Ready to head back?" Sierra asked.  Roman nodded and Sierra took his hand again and lead him back through the lab to the cages. "I'll be back around noon for lunch," Sierra said softly after closing Roman into his cell. Sierra rested her forehead against to the cell door as she spoke. Roman smiled and closed the space between them, resting his forehead close to hers on the other side of the cell. "Don't be late," Roman said as he rested his forehead against the cool, metal bars that separated them. His dark brown eyes practically melting Sierra. With that, she turned and walked down the hall, hoping Roman didn't notice how much she was blushing.

Part two

Kryta University - plot point

As some of you know, the KU guild has long since disbanded and was somewhat of a failed experiment. However it still icly exists as a background plot point and is open for anyone to use or refer to.

So with that in mind I thought I’d compile some information you guys could icly refer to if you ever wanted any characters or alts attending or teaching here. I may add to this if anyone has any requests for anything to be added.

The Colleges within the University:

College of Science and Mathematics - Science, pure math, economics, etc.

College of Magic and Arcana - Magic, glyphs, artifacts, etc.

College of Liberal Arts -  History, Literature, Politics, Writing, etc.

Faculty:

The current Headmistress: Professor Beatrice Lemercier (NPC)

- She is a stern and methodical woman but very fair-minded.

Professors: These positions can be open if you want to say your character teaches here. You can let me know and I’ll add it or just go for it.

Scholarships:

Currently there are three scholarships available from Glass Academy for new students. Rowboat (ooc head of Glass Academy) has graciously offered for any student rper to use one if they would like to:

Firstly, the Marcheline LeBlanc-Glass Scholarship for Excellence in Thaumaturgy will be awarded to students who display a talent in magic use. The student awarded with this will be offered 75% of their tuition.

Secondly, the Glass Academy Alumni Scholarship will be awarded to a Glass Academy graduate. The student awarded with this will be offered 50% of their tuition.

Lastly, the Compassionate Scholarship for Non-Krytans will be awarded to any student whom is not a Krytan citizen, including non-humans. This student will be offered 100% of their tuition. 

Facilities:

Most notably is the Jason Ambrose Library, boasting an incredible collection from all genres. Lord Alec DeWinter, Luxelen Larkspur and others are credited for donating the collection. The library is always accepting donations to increase its collection.This is normally rped in the second floor of Wi’s mansion as a placeholder. Any classrooms are rped in the empty room in the first floor.

Next is the Merrygold Dormitory, named after Typhoro Merrygold, one of the University’s founding members. The dormitory consists of three levels, the first being a kitchen and bath house, then the female dormitory and finally the male dormitory. This is normally rped in the Maiden’s Whisper tavern as a placeholder.

The Mess Hall is the kitchen in Wi’s mansion.

That’s it for facilities but if you want to make a donation for a new wing, please let me know and I will add it and even name it after your character.

Entrance Examinations:

Every student must fill out an application and then take the entrance exam to be placed in the correct department and level according to their abilities. Results are normally posted prior to the beginning of term.

That’s it for now! But i will be adding on if needed. I hope this helps you guys.

why were you drawn to each one of your characters?

Apparently you and @symmarilshatterunwra​ are both sadists.I have to preface this response with a little literarydrivel. I am a huge, HUGE fan of transgressive fiction. In my writing I have done my best to adhere tothe basic elements of the genre, though my writing style is often more floridthan is typical. So, all of my characters tend to have deviant pasts, secretsand proclivities that are both a source of relief from lives that are eitherbanal and meaningless or are broken by trauma and sometimes a mixture of thetwo.Usually, a narrative emerges either from some music, a pieceof art, or just musing in general and sometimes through the combined creativeeffort of myself and a writing partner. A few of these characters have beenconceived of with and for partners I have or have had.Raerys (Rosewood) Songbrook - Raerys’ isa compilation of feelings and narratives that I spliced together from writingdone with @symmarilshatterunwra​ and a deep interest in actual cults that I have. I havespent several hundred hours watching various documentaries about religiouscults. Raerys family were involved in a very fringe cult of Sun WorshipingQuel’dorei. In it there is love of power for power’s sake, the corruption thatcomes from that and the fanatical drive to create a “pure” blood line thatwould create the greatest minds in the pursuit of the Arcane. That pursuit of apure bloodline and the use of both religious doctrine and sexual coercion aremain themes in her life, start to finish.Her journey is one of cleansing and redemption, a move towardwholeness and healing after a life of privileged trauma.The next I have to take in Tandem - because their stories areintertwined.Kaereah andPhaedrei Bitterdawn - The Bitterdawn sisters are opposite ends of theemotional and social spectrum. This is due to some really shitty stuff thathappened when they were growing up. They are in truth, half sisters. Phaedreiis the elder of them. Kaereah is the baby of the family and the result ofan “Oooops” their mother had after having been widowed.   Phaedrei is responsible to a fault, is taciturn, cruel and fairly ACE. Headcannon says she's never been with anyone, romantically or otherwise. She's toofocused on her work, on her magic, on herself and the compartments of her life.She is deeply sad, a dank sort of depression eats at her and keeps her at arm'slength from anyone. Kaereah is the opposite side of the same coin. She is gregarious, friendly, andgenerally "open" to people she meets, but then, she's also aprostitute and has been for many years. She is not really open, any more sothan her sister, though she has been in love once. Was hurt terribly, and sincehas walled off her emotions and used sex as a way of life and a weapon since. They are in equal parts the unfortunate reaction to a childhood in which theironly role model found validation in relationships, not in herself or herchildren. Determined not to follow in their mother's footsteps they respondedvery differently, only to arrive at essentially the same emotional place. Theyhate one another, because both judge the other as maladjusted, without seeingthe irony of their situations and having any empathy for the other and all thatthey have suffered.Nolah Blackfyre - Nolah is a amalgamof rogue tropes, which are usually played out by men. I was drawn to her as acharacter because she is a SHE. She is devil may care, full of swagger andpomp, but she's also wears that like a mask, hiding behind it is a ruthlesskiller who no one would ever imagine is capable of the things she is. She isalso, an incurable romantic, seeking for that perfect lover who to quote TheEagles, "won't blow my cover, but they're so hard to find." As I posted ages ago on her tumblr, she is made of cigarettes and song lyrics.She is a poet, a ponderous creature who writes secret poetry and who is tragicin all the ways that rogues usually are.

Kordelaine Sunbriar - Kordelaine ismy idea of a "millennial belf." She likes techno, house and trancemusic. She is into her gadgets, thinks the world is all fucked up but feelspretty powerless to fix it. It sounds strange I know, but she's in no smallpart inspired by both of my sons, one who has had some issues with drugaddiction and depression and the other who is a quiet and very nerdy kid. I was drawn to her as a way to sort of tap into what I enjoy most about millennials.What makes them interesting to me as a GenX'r. Their music, their sardonic viewof the world, their desire for community and connection in a world that isincreasingly small and yet isolated by technology.

Tzilli Bloodsky - I am drawn toTzilli because who doesn't want to play a comic book villain? She's a completeasshole. She's a narcissistic, overly intellectual anarchist who is really justa nihilist. She is in her mind, "Self Made" in the same way that mostAyn Rand female characters are...  whichis also fun to mock and play with. She's really just Ra's al Ghul with tits anda cute face.Selkara Blackvale - Selkarah and herTwin Selakiir are Castor and Pollux. Or were... until something terriblehappened. She was always the darker half, the dangerous one, the thinker ofdeep and dark thoughts. He was the kind one, the sweet one, the good one... andthen the Void. I am drawn to Selkara because she has been utterly undone withher brother's corruption. Thrust from the role of the corruptor into the role of the caretaker has lefther unbalanced, freewheeling and frightened. She now struggles with theknowledge of her brother's slowly creeping madness, to feel him mentally,spiritually and emotionally within her, but unable to affect what is theeventual outcome of his state. The struggle to change horses midstream and become a hero in her own life iswhat is interesting about Selkara, that and her adoration and love for Rey. Reyhas helped to soften her, to support her transformation from shadowy bitch intosomething deeper, more and closer to wholeness. Rila Greenleaf - Rila is the Fool ofthe Tarot, but in female form. She is the child in William Blake's Songs of Innocenceand Songs of Experience. She is moving from utter ignorance through temptation,corruption and with luck, out the other side. I am drawn to Rila's arc in thesame way that anyone who's read De Sade's "Justine" is drawn to thecharacter and the conclusion of her story. How does the madness of absolutelibertinism end if it is born by one of a completely pure soul?

Jonadori Winterborne - Jona has beenbashed around in some pretty unfortunate rp arcs. She's not broken but she'sbeen reworked a bunch and at present I am not sure I am utterly in touch withher. So, I am not sure what to say about her in this respect.

Aembrose/Ambrose Longroad - Aembrose is a side character inRaerys' larger story. I originally made him just to play a part in herprogression, but there has been some interest in maintaining him as acharacter. I just haven't found found his voice yet. I am working on it.

Joaquin Brightquiver - He is a new character, very wetbehind the ears yet, but I am drawn to him because of his romantic and artisticsensibilities. He's a loner, been kicked around a good deal by life, but heloves to pain, he's consumed by his art, wine and women. He could be great, agreat and well-respected painter, but his addictions to alcohol and women whoare trouble keep him from being able to really move forward as an artist. I amdrawn to him, for the voice he offers.I don't usually play men, but when I write him, or plot for him, I feel such astrength of narrative that I feel sort of compelled to see the guy out. We'llsee if I really get under him and into his pov, it is still emerging, but whatI have done with him, I have really enjoyed.

Bryonny Larkspur - Bryonny is not yet entirelyfleshed out, that said... I find that character creation requires interaction,at least to firm up details. However, she's interesting to me from a conceptualpoint of view. Unlike Nolah who is despite her vocation a pretty easy to getalong with lady, Bryonny is far more "muy macho" and I have nicknamedher "The Shootist," in order to make the connection between her andold school male western tropes. She's a female in a man's world, she's mean andruthless.  I haven't written a characterlike her in a long time, and perhaps it is the opportunity to write one again,re-working the idea and refining it that makes her interesting to me.Violet Dal'vir - Violet is theoldest character I have here. She's an Apostate Blood Knight who for manyreasons rejects "current" Sin'dorei culture and wallows in her angstand resentment. She has little use for others, little use for friends orcompanions. The only people she's known for some time who care for her or caredfor her, eventually left her behind because she could not and would not bebudged from her bigotry and her dogmatic and uncompromising dedication to aregime and a world that no longer exists.I like her, because she's kind of my "Uncle Rukus" character. She issocial commentary turned inside out and upside down. If I bring Violet aroundto interact with your characters, you can expect it is because either I thinkyour character is too fluffy, or too edgy. She likes to shave the plumes offone and knock the corners off the other. This is why, in many ways, I equateher with trolling. Greneda Brightmorn - Greneda is thenewest of my characters and I won't lie, I've pretty much fallen in love withher. She is a taste of all my favorite old time movie vixens, mashed up with agood dose of Lucile Ball and Carol Burnett. She feminine exaggerated, she's gota dirty mind, a warm laugh and she loves people, all sorts of people. She likesto use politeness like a weapon, relies heavily on her "Blanche" likemanner when social situations get difficult or taxing, and when she'scomfortable with people or her context, she's a delightful companion.  I am deeply drawn to her, because I lovepeople like her in real life.

Thank you @ouroandarGreat if somewhat difficult question to answer.
