What would an ideal day off look like for each character if it's not too much? 😅

Liran: An ideal day off for Liran would undoubtedly be one spent around those he cherishes. It might begin with a leisurely breakfast with Seraphina. Later, he enjoys a calm, peaceful day, often reading or engaging in light, playful training with fellow Red Company members. As the evening rolls in, a hearty meal with the whole Company, and later stargazing alone or with MC, would be the perfect way to end the day.

Makena: For Makena, an ideal day off would be a balanced blend of solitary and social activities. The day would start with her tending to her beloved garden, hands covered in soil as she takes care of her plants. In the evening, she heads to the local tavern ‚Shivering Shandy‘, enjoying the spirited music and the infectious energy. Dancing to the rhythm, singing her heart out, being one with the crowd — this is her perfect escape.

R: R would start the day with an intense workout or a long ride on their horse. Not many people like to associate with R, so R would probably spend the day pursuing individual activities, two of their favourite activities is either to join underground fighting or to undertake a challenging hunt and they will only return when they captured their prey, either way, losing is not an option. The evening might see them at a quiet corner of a tavern, enjoying a meal and a drink on their own.

Ghost: Ghost's ideal day off is spent chasing pleasure in all its forms. A late morning start with an extravagant breakfast will start the day. Then they spend the afternoon lounging in a bathhouse, indulging in relaxing massages, and visiting stalls for some shopping. In the evening, they'd go to a tavern to dance, and flirt. When they have enough, they'd go home with someone from the tavern or go to a pleasure house, seeking their favourite kind of pleasure~

Joryn: Joryn's ideal day off involves some quality time with friends, their crew or a current lover. A day spent on the deck of a ship or in their favourite tavern ‚The Tipsy Mermaid‘, a bottle of good rum, good company, card games (only with bettings involved of course) would be their idea of perfect relaxation. Joryn is a social creature and enjoys the company of others in the streets and in the sheets.*hehehe*

Rothar: Rothar's ideal day off is still a structured one. They spend time maintaining their equipment, studying new combat techniques, or meticulously planning for future endeavors. However, they would also set aside some precious time for their child, cherishing those moments the most out of their day. Even on their days off, Rothar finds satisfaction in a job well done and in the simplicity of familial bonds.

Cassius: An ideal day off for Cassius involves spending time with MC, taking a break from his leadership responsibilities to just be a father. Whatever MC wants do to, he’s down for it.

Callista: Callista hates days off, ‚relaxing’ isn’t really in her vocabulary, as she often doesn’t know what to do with herself when she isn’t needed. She will often go patrolling anyway, do a small assignment or just sharpen her weapons. On rare occasions she will join Amahle on her outings.

Varian: Varian would likely use his day off to catch up on sleep often outside, in a quiet, shady spot under a tree. Do not disturb him.

Amahle: Amahle's ideal day off involves taking a break from the kitchen to enjoy some of her favorite culinary delights, prepared by someone else for a change!

Seraphina: Seraphina's ideal day off involves a relaxing day with Liran or alone spent in the local marketplace, engaging in trading, picking up unique trinkets, and enjoying the vibrant atmosphere. She appreciates the variety of goods and stories each vendor has to offer.

Olaf: On his day off Olaf partakes in friendly wrestling matches or arm wrestling bouts. His day wouldn't be complete without a hearty meal shared with friends, with plenty of stories and laughter.

Ayo: On a day off, Ayo loves going on a fishing trip. The patience and tranquility required for fishing gives them time to reflect and relax. Plus, a successful catch means a hearty meal!

Hadrian: For Hadrian, an ideal day off involves an early morning of organization and planning, followed by a relaxing afternoon with a good book and a soothing bath.

Lola: Lola's perfect day off involves visiting nearby towns, chatting with locals, and perhaps enjoying a lively festival or market.

Roshan: An ideal day off for them would be spent enjoying a calm and peaceful day wandering around. Whether it be feeding the strays, watching the local children play, or simply enjoying the tranquillity of nature around them, it's these simple moments of peace that bring Roshan genuine happiness.

💢 ANGER - what are some habits they have that will take some getting used to?

💢 ANGER Liran: Liran's overprotective and somewhat stubborn nature may be challenging to adapt to. His habit of putting the well-being of others before his own is noble but can also be a source of tension, as he often extends his protective nature even when it's not necessarily requested or needed.

Makena: Makena has a habit of over-analysing situations or gets lost in her thoughts when she's engrossed in a book or searching for solutions to a problem. The world around her might as well not exist. This level of intense focus can be a bit disconcerting for those around her who are not used to it and might take some time to get accustomed to.

R: R is known for their love of living life on the edge. They often make bold and impulsive decisions without necessarily thinking about potential consequences. This love for adrenaline, danger, and their competitive drive to be the best can be quite exhilarating but also somewhat nerve-wracking for those close to them.

Ghost: Ghost's playful and flirtatious nature can sometimes blur boundaries. Getting used to their teasing and games might require some patience.

Joryn: Joryn's laid-back attitude and tendency to take things lightly might be something one would need to adjust to. Their frequent sarcasm and flippant remarks might not sit well with everyone initially.

Rothar: Rothar's disciplined and orderly lifestyle can be a bit hard to adapt to. They're strict with themselves and hold others to high standards as well.

Cassius: With his leadership role, Cassius has the tendency to take responsibility for everything and everyone around him. He often has trouble delegating tasks and tends to overwork himself. This habit of his to bear the world on his shoulders can be exhausting not only for him but also for those close to him, as it can sometimes manifest as overprotectiveness or unnecessary worry.

Callista: Callista's stern demeanor and the weight she places on honor and tradition might seem rigid to some. Understanding her viewpoint and adjusting to her expectations might take time.

Varian: Varian's dry wit and tendency to deflect concern with dry humor might seem frustrating at times. Adjusting to his form of communication might take a bit of time.

Amahle: Amahle's gruff exterior and sharp tongue might be something that takes a bit of getting used to. It might take time to learn that beneath her stern facade, she harbors a warm heart.

Seraphina: Seraphina's zealous dedication to her craft might be overwhelming to some. Her perfectionist tendencies and high standards in her work may require some adjusting.

Olaf: Olaf's boisterous personality and love for battle might be intimidating at first. Getting used to his larger-than-life nature and constant energy could be a challenge.

Ayo: Ayo's stoicism and introspective nature might initially seem standoffish. Learning to read their silences and understanding their need for solitude will take some patience.

Hadrian: Hadrian's meticulousness and need for order in everything might be a bit tough to adapt to initially. His constant need to plan and prepare for every eventuality might require some adjustment.

Lola: Lola's constant charm offensive and persuasive ways might require some time to get used to. She's always 'on', always engaging and lively, which can be overwhelming for those who prefer quiet and peace.

Roshan: Roshan has a selfless nature that often sees them placing the well-being of others, both human and animal, before their own. This altruistic habit, while admirable, can be concerning as they frequently neglect their own needs in the process. This self-sacrificing trait might take some getting used to and sometimes requires reminders for Roshan that their own health and happiness are equally important.

😭 CRYING - what makes them cry? do they cry easily? (for everyone)

😭 CRYING Liran: He tends to internalize his emotions and hardly ever cries, but witnessing unjust situations or harm coming to those he cares about deeply can bring tears to his eyes. He will cry openly and confide in Seraphina and MC.

Makena: Though she doesn't cry easily, instances of profound sadness or failure can make her cry. However, she often hides her tears, preferring to maintain her composed exterior.

R: R rarely shows any emotion openly, let alone crying. R doesn’t cry, not anymore. Nobody has ever seen R crying and if they did they’re probably dead by now.

Ghost: Being a master of deception, it's hard to tell when Ghost is genuinely crying or simply putting on an act. However, moments of genuine vulnerability could trigger their tears.

Joryn: Joryn rarely lets anyone see them shed tears. However, the death of a valued crew member or the loss of their ship, which they consider their home, could lead to a moment of vulnerability.

Rothar: Rothar is stoic to the core and has a high threshold for emotional pain. It would take an event of extreme personal loss or an enormous failure to make them cry. Even then, they would prefer to shed their tears in private.

Cassius: Was a crybaby as a child but now rarely cries anymore. But profound losses and failure to protect those he cares about could bring him to tears.

Callista: It takes a lot to break Callista's stern exterior. Loss of kin or the betrayal of those close to her can make her cry. But she would only cry in her quarters where nobody can see her.

Varian: He hardly cries anymore but seeing people he cares about in pain or distress can stir emotions that lead to tears.

Amahle: She's unlikely to cry openly but moments of remembrance of her past might cause silent tears.

Seraphina: Seraphina is not prone to crying but she can be deeply moved by acts of artistic innovation or when Liran was comfortable enough to call her “Mom” for the first time.

Ayo: Ayo hardly ever cries but can be moved to tears by acts of profound courage or selflessness.

Hadrian: Hadrian cries openly when overwhelmed by stress or when the Red Company faces significant loss.

Lola: Lola is an open book emotionally and isn’t afraid to cry when she’s happy, sad, or moved by a powerful story.

[the-red-company-if]

💥 COLLISON - what emotions do they have trouble dealing with? (for everyone)

💥 COLLISON

Liran: Liran struggles with feelings of inadequacy and rejection. He tends to internalize these emotions, trying to appear strong and unaffected, but they often result in self-doubt and the fear of letting those he cares about down.

Makena: Makena has difficulty with trust. She is accustomed to guarding her emotions, and opening up to others can be a challenge. She's continually wrestling with the need to share herself with others and the fear of being hurt or betrayed.

R: R has difficulty dealing with feelings of compassion and empathy, largely because they see these emotions as vulnerabilities. They're used to putting up a tough exterior and struggle to reconcile their hardened outlook with any softness they might feel.

Ghost: Ghost has difficulty dealing with vulnerability. Their life thrives on manipulation and deception, making authenticity a complex concept to grasp. Whenever they're forced to reveal their genuine feelings or face the consequences of their actions, Ghost is plunged into emotional uncertainty, creating a struggle to regain their usually steadfast control over their emotions.

Captain Joryn: Joryn finds it challenging to handle feelings of dependency or attachment. Being a self-sufficient pirate has made them wary of relying on others, and they're uncomfortable when they find themselves caring more than they'd like to admit.

General Rothar: Rothar struggles with their emotions when their rigidly-held beliefs and principles are challenged. They're a stalwart in their ways and have difficulty grappling with the gray areas of morality and loyalty. Any potential for wavering or compromise triggers a significant internal conflict.

Cassius: Cassius struggles with the fear of loss and failure. Being a leader, the lives and welfare of his people weigh heavily on his shoulders.

Callista: Callista grapples with feelings of regret and guilt. Her tough exterior masks a history of hard decisions and sacrifices. Acknowledging these emotions means facing a past she'd rather keep behind her.

Varian: Varian has trouble dealing with his feelings of inadequacy. His role as a healer places a significant amount of pressure on him, and when he can't save someone, he blames himself. This leads to self-doubt and frustration that he finds challenging to overcome.

Amahle: Amahle struggles with pride, which often masks her feelings of insecurity about her age. She finds it difficult to admit when she needs help or when her abilities may not be up to par. It's an internal battle between acknowledging her limitations and preserving her well-earned reputation.

Seraphina: Seraphina finds it challenging to deal with feelings of vulnerability. Her strength and resilience are a significant part of her identity, and moments where she feels weak or dependent on others create inner conflict.

Olaf: Olaf struggles with feelings of restlessness and impatience. He thrives on the thrill of battle and adventure, and periods of inactivity can lead him to question his purpose and worth, stirring up a maelstrom of discontent within him.

Ayo: Ayo has trouble dealing with the fear of disappointment. As the eyes and ears of the Red Company, they feel a tremendous responsibility to not miss anything important.

Hadrian: Hadrian struggles with feelings of helplessness. Being the one who manages resources, he feels deeply responsible for ensuring everyone's needs are met. When he can't fix a problem, he experiences a deep sense of personal failure.

Lola: Lola finds it hard to cope with feelings of rejection. As the gatekeeper of the Red Company, she constantly puts herself out there, and each rejection feels like a personal slap in the face.

Roshan: Roshan grapples with feelings of grief. Being so close to animals means witnessing the cycle of life and death more often than most. Though they understand it as a natural process, the repeated experience of loss takes an emotional toll on Roshan.

[the-red-company-if]

🤥 LYING - are they good liars? do they have tells to show they’re lying? (for everyone)

🤥 LYING

Liran: Liran is generally honest and isn't very good at lying. As MC and Liran grew up together, MC can immediately tell when Liran lies. He begins fidgeting and slightly stammers.

Makena: Makena is an excellent liar when she needs to be, able to maintain her composure and continue her activities without change. Only someone who knows her well might sense the slight stiffness in her voice when she's not telling the truth.

R: R is skilled at lying, making it hard to tell whether they're being honest or not, and they take pride in that.

Ghost: Ghost is a master at lying, their entire persona is built around deceit. No significant tell gives away their lies, making them highly unpredictable.

Captain Joryn: As a pirate, Joryn is a fairly good liar, although they prefer bold truth and audacity. When lying, they might embellish their stories even more than usual but who knows?

General Rothar: Rothar is excellent at strategic deception. No tell is visible on their stern exterior when they lie, making it difficult to discern their true intentions.

Cassius: Cassius does not typically resort to lies. When he does lie, he's not especially good at it - his characteristic grin fades and his eyes don't hold the same sparkle, which can be a dead giveaway.

Callista: As a seasoned matriarch, Callista has mastered the art of strategic deception when necessary. She maintains her stoic exterior, making it difficult to tell when she's lying.

Varian: Varian's dry wit can sometimes be a smokescreen for any lies. However, a slight hesitation could signal he's not being entirely truthful.

Amahle: Amahle isn't a great liar, and why should she? She's too blunt and straightforward. She tends to overemphasize her point or speak too quickly when she attempts to lie.

Seraphina: Seraphina is a decent liar, and her relaxed demeanor helps to mask her lies. But if one pays attention, they might notice her idly fiddling with a tool or piece of metal when she isn't telling the truth.

Olaf: Olaf isn't particularly skilled at lying. His booming voice may waver or he might avoid eye contact when he's not being truthful.

Ayo: Ayo, with their keen observational skills, can lie convincingly. Their only potential tell is a slight narrowing of their eyes, but even that is subtle and difficult to catch.

Hadrian: Hadrian is a fairly good liar, thanks to his strategic mind. However, he tends to over-plan his lies, which could result in a too-perfect explanation.

Lola: Lola, with her charisma and persuasion skills, is an excellent liar. She keeps a steady gaze and shows no significant changes in her behavior when lying.

Roshan: Roshan's compassionate nature makes them a poor liar. When they're not being honest, they might avoid direct eye contact or exhibit nervous behavior around the animals they care for.

[the-red-company-if]

Amahle:

Fun Fact: Amahle likes to tell the story about her being able to tame a wild boar just by adding the right spices to its meal. The members of the Red Company, even though they knew it couldn’t be true, never dared to question the truth behind it in front of Amahle, given her reputation with the kitchen knife.

Cute Fact: Every year on the first day of spring, Amahle prepares a special dish known as "Spring's Blessing" - a vibrant mix of fresh vegetables and an array of her special spices. She insists that it brings good luck and health for the coming year. She goes out and gives it to the children living on the streets.

Seraphina:

Fun Fact: Seraphina has a peculiar habit of naming all her hammers. She insists that each of them has a unique "personality" that affects the outcome of her work. It's not uncommon to hear her asking for "Bessie" or "Gunda" during a busy day in the forge, leading to quite a few chuckles.

Cute Fact: Seraphina, in her own quirky way, adds a small, unique symbol to every weapon she creates, a symbol of her affection and well-wishes to the weapon's wielder. It's her personal 'blessing' for their safety and victory.

Olaf:

Fun Fact: Despite his size and strength, Olaf has a comical fear of tiny insects. The sight of a small bug can send the imposing warrior running in the opposite direction, much to the amusement of his comrades. Once a year the members of the Red Company try to prank Olaf and Cassius and make a bet about who the biggest Baby is: Olaf the Jitterbug or Cassius the Baaa-shful

Cute Fact: Olaf has a habit of braiding tiny wildflowers into his beard during springtime. It's a tradition that he picked up from his mother, a small, personal ritual to honour her.

Ayo:

Fun Fact: Ayo, despite being the epitome of stealth and precision, is famously clumsy when it comes to domestic chores. Attempts to help in the kitchen or repair equipment often result in minor catastrophes, leading to a standing joke in the Red Company.

Cute Fact: Ayo often takes up the night watch, giving their comrades a chance to rest. They use this time to weave intricate patterns with colored threads, a calming activity for them. These handcrafted keepsakes are then silently left for their comrades to find, a quiet token of Ayo's silent but profound care for their fellow members of the Red Company.

Hadrian:

Fun Fact: Hadrian has an eccentric habit of organizing everything by color - from maps and books to food supplies. It's a quirk that often leads to amusing moments, like the time when he insisted on arranging apples by their exact shades of red.

Cute Fact: Hadrian keeps a small locket with him at all times. Inside is a tiny portrait of someone but nobody knows who, as Hadrian never shows anyone the locket. He often talks to the locket when he's alone, sharing his day and the latest Red Company news.

Lola:

Fun Fact: Lola has an entertaining knack for creating elaborate nicknames for every new recruit based on their first impression. The names often stick, to the complains of many.

Cute Fact: Lola keeps a personal memento from every new recruit she welcomes - be it a small trinket, a drawing, a note. She values these keepsakes immensely, viewing them as symbols of the diverse family that forms the Red Company. Her collection is kept in a beautifully ornate box.

Roshan:

Fun Fact: Roshan loves telling animal-themed jokes to lighten the mood around the Red Company.
