@storyowls is doing her yearly October run of Bloodlines again so of course I'm thinking about the Brotherhood of the Ninth Circle and theorizing that they're a Death and the Soul pack

What common/uncommon fear do they have? He doesn't fear many things, but the thing he fears most is getting attached to someone and getting them seriously hurt and/or killed. In this way, he fears the past will catch up to him without distracting himself. If he stops moving, gets sober, or is plunged into any sort of sensory deprivation so that he's left alone with his thoughts... that's what he fears most.

Do they have any pet peeves? Slow drivers who cut him off or don't get out of his way. 🌝 He has been known to chase people down, drag them from their vehicle, and beat the tar out of them. Y'know, textbook road rage.

What are 3 items you can find in their bedroom? Box of condoms, a book of poetry by Julia de Burgos, and a knock-off ESP LTD M-Black Metal guitar.

What do they notice first in a person? Voice and manner of speech, mainly because he's a fairly audio-oriented person. A well-spoken baritone or contralto with a distinct accent is going to get his attention. Nasally, high-pitched voices are generally grating to his ear.

On a scale of 1 to 10, how high is their pain tolerance? Well... Getting cut on or beaten or burned is fun and sexy for him. He's had some pretty low points, but who hasn't? Let's say his pain tolerance is at an 8.

Do they go into fight or flight mode when under pressure? (or freeze and fawn) Fight. Even before his Embrace, experience taught him that violence is the only way to survive. And though he's had to learn to control it later in his unlife, he's just a bomb waiting to go off.

What animal represents them best? Think of a jaguar, muscular and graceful, with a powerful instinct to hunt and kill despite being born in captivity. Pacing behind the bars of his cage, fighting his true nature in an unnatural environment, paraded before on-lookers as an example of how even a brute can be tamed. But always, always simmering beneath the surface is a burning desire to break free and tear his audience to pieces.

How would a stranger likely describe them? Bad boy. Not very bright. But with a certain vulnerability in his eyes.

Do they have any hobbies? Partying, live music, illegal street racing. He plays and writes music on his guitar. He also likes to read poetry and books on history and philosophy.

I'm soooo late getting around to do this but I'm gonna tag people anyway lol

OC Deep Dive: Tag "Dare" Wilson

Tagged by: @vamp-orwave

Ex-Thinblood, now Malkavian. Set in 2069.

what common/uncommon fear do they have? Tag's afraid of not having any agency, or worse, having someone else take over piloting him. The fun thing is that in this cyberpunk world where he's freshly upgraded from Thinblood to Malkavian and scraping by at the bottom, he does in fact not have very much agency. It's part of why he ended up addicted to drugs, at least it takes the pain away. And the fears. And the worries. At least for a little bit.

do they have any pet peeves? Rats who throw their fellows under the bus for five seconds of good will from those at the top.

what are 3 items you can find in their bedroom? Cigarettes, pills and a small collection of scavenged "retro" items for trading. He doesn't own very much and recently had to give up his haven in favor of a temporary place.

what do they notice first in a person? Their clothes and the way they carry themselves. Useful clues to figure out who you're dealing with. You don't want to piss off the wrong people, after all.

on a scale of 1 to 10, how high is their pain tolerance? It's pretty high. Maybe an 8. His drugs of choice are opioids.

when under pressure, do they go into fight, flight, freeze, or fawn mode? Definitely leaning towards fight (at least verbally). Puff himself up to throw off bigger predators. When it comes to physical fights, he's more likely to freeze or even fawn.

how would a stranger likely describe them? Cute but a little too desperate. Not worth the trouble he's likely to bring.

do they have any hobbies? He's very extroverted so most of his hobbies involve hanging out with people. He's game for most anything if the company is good. When he was still a thin-blood, he liked to dabble in alchemy and experiment. He misses it.

What common/uncommon fear do they have? His biggest fear would not being seen as useful or not being needed, especially as a vampire. He has such a lofty idea of what being a vampire means and that translates to an anxiety of needing to live up to that, this especially set in after how his sire and the chantry treated him. The validation of it needs to come from others.

Do they have any pet peeves? He cannot stand self pity. It's one thing to be a bit whiney or complain but he cannot stand a genuine woe is me attitude. He looses respect for anyone that just declares themselves useless and then does nothing to try to fix it or not be useless.

What are 3 items you can find in their bedroom? A picture of him and Noa. A pocket knife engraved with roses, it's the last thing he has of his sire. A vial of mysterious liquid. Concoctions are his strength and he tries to keep one or two in arms reach.

What do they notice first in a person? The first thing he looks for is posture. Trying to size them up by how they carry themselves.

On a scale of 1 to 10, how high is their pain tolerance? Depends. Tummy ache? Smashing toe into coffee table? 10. Put a bullet in his head and put him out of his misery. Getting stabbed? Punched in the face? Fuck you, but please sir may I have some more? I think it ties into the answer for the next question. If it's something that triggers fight or flight he can clench his teeth and suck it up but otherwise he folds like origami.

Do they go into fight or flight mode when under pressure? (or freeze and fawn) Fight 9 out of 10 times, for better or worse. He will look for weak points someone may have well before looking for an escape route. He initially assumes escape isn't an option. It's a mix of pride and having a philosophy of it's better to be shot in the chest trying to kick their ass than be shot in the back running away. Not that he's never ran away form a situation but it's got to be a situation before he does.

What animal represents them best? A cat! He has the temperament of an alley cat. If he was a cat in Cats the Musical he would be a mix of Rum Tum Tugger and Mr. Mistoffelees

How would a stranger likely describe them? Friendly but untrustworthy. Possibly due to the circumstances of how you meet him. He might come off as trying to scam you or lure you into something. Obnoxious as well.

Do they have any hobbies? He does do botany as a hobby. He has a section of his garden or greenhouse that is just for actually growing and nurturing plants free of any mad science stuff. It's just good for the soul.

@deathandthesoul @storyowls @crownedinmarigolds and anyone else who wants to join in! I love things like this, makes me think of stuff I may not have otherwise.

✶⠀⠀oc deep dive ᨀ

what common/uncommon fear do they have?

vivienne is scared of isolation. like liminal space type shit. put her in the backrooms and she’ll genuinely start losing it. he absolutely hates total silence as it’s really uncanny to her and despite “hating” other people, they’d rather be in a crammed elevator than listen to silence and be in an isolated space

do they have any pet peeves?

he absolutely HATES when people talk too slowly or talk too quietly. being raised with strict conversation etiquette and overall just being an asshole, vivienne will not hesitate to tell a person to speak clearly

what are 3 items you can find in their bedroom?

a gun definitely, dusty old vinyl record player she bought like several years ago and has no longer been in use, and a floor length mirror because they’re an egotistical little bastard

what do they notice first in a person?

posture, how the other party conducts themselves. their way of moving, how they stand, how fast their hands are going, what expression is on their face. body language is everything to vivienne

on a scale of 1 to 10, how high is their pain tolerance?

emotionally? 10/10. physically? ehhh i’ll give it an 8/10 the motherfucker got stabbed in the stomach and still refused to back down from a fight

do they go into fight or flight mode when under pressure? (or freeze and fawn)

fight. absolutely fight.

what animal represents them best?

a tiger definitely; strong and courageous—and absolutely lethal when in for a kill

how would a stranger likely describe them?

" Pale four eyed nepo baby asshole with a gaze that will make you feel judged and ashamed at every second no matter what the situation is. "

do they have any hobbies?

driving and drawing buildings (ex architecture student♥️)

OC Deep Dive: Andrea "Drea" Marvella

Hecata (Lamia) - !2th Generation -

tagged by @findingtarshish (thank you)

+ what common/uncommon fear do they have?

Hmm Its kind of hard to answer for Drea but I think even though she can't anymore she has a EXTREME fear of getting sick again. Between how her mother passed and also how she herself passed I think if anyone close to her or himself gets even a cold it would do a lot of damage to him mentally. Another one is maybe being selfish, I think Drea has alot of guilt around seeming selfish even though they rarely do anything for themselves.

+ Do they have any pet peeves?

He fucking hates people who care about money to much, Like its probably connected to a general dislike of mobsters but she can not stand people who are to materialistic. Also people who lie for no good reason, It comes with being a vampire but Drea is bad at deception and kind of hopes to always be.

+What are 3 items you can find in their bedroom?

A assortment of knives and maybe a sword, A box full of labeled animal bones (for necromancy) and WAY to many packs of expensive clove cigarettes (its the only luxury he lets himself enjoy)

+What do they notice first in a person?

Eyes. She believes you learn ALOT about a person based on their eyes and also Drea is the type to always look you directly in the eyes while talking to you.

+On a scale of 1 to 10, how high is their pain tolerance?

Like....15. Probably getting to the point where its worrying. This is a woman who let a coterie mate stab her to help them feel better. Not to mention the Bahari stuff. HE DID TAKE HIS OWN EYE OUT

+Do they go into fight or flight mode when under pressure? (or freeze and fawn)

It really depends. As a bodyguard if its a physical or action based pressure its usually stand and fight. However Drea is known to kind of run when it comes to emotional stuff he doesn't really understand to well.

+What animal represents them best?

SNAKES. Specifically really docile but extremely poisonous snakes. A silent and relaxed animal that will bite and kill when you step in the wrong spot. (also probably a guard dog but thats to cliche

+How would a stranger likely describe them?

Quiet but very scary. Probably assumes she is in a gang or the mafia.

+do they have any hobbies?

COOKING. Drea actually likes cooking a lot but since he doesn't eat anymore its more rare. She would cook all of the meals for her and Donna when they where going through the pseudo kiss. Also replaying ff7 over and over again on a old playstation

I'll tag @deathandthesoul @pretend-pretend-vampire and @auspex

also anyone else that wants to do it!

[crownedinmarigolds]

Quick, what would Jesse's action movie be called? Maybe... "Steele Gaze." I was also suggested "Steele Sunrise." Thank you to @deathandthesoul for commissioning me always, I'm very happy with the lighting!!

[storyowls]

Was doing my yearly play through of Bloodlines with @deathandthesoul watching and the freaking werewolf just hung out in the door for over 2 and a half minutes.

[mournwatch]

@deathandthesoul tagged me to show 4 memes that describe one of my OCs. So I decided to do my VTM character Morgan Flowers.

He's a natural spirit medium who can see the ghosts of people who passed away violently everywhere, and the only thing that makes it go away is substance abuse, of course. On top of that he got turned into a Nagaraja, so yeah. Cannibalism time. He's just a gross goth boy overall.

... and I'm really bad at tagging people because I instantly forget who I can tag. So if you're reading this... you're it. 🔪
