#do I become unhinged when someone unclasps armor before a beloved?

[ythmir-writes]

been playing around with a few OCs in my head for some time now and it has not been very kind to my brain. ive got names and vibes and they're still mostly blurry like i got the gist i got the most basic of basics, but i love them very much! (and what is love if notshaking them placing them ingutwrenchingsituations with the Princes)

my 4 children under the cut:

Vera the first blade

"retired" paladin hired to do bodyguard work for annoying royalty (including Chevalier)

thorny past is an open secret - bitter and angry and very much still vexed about it to this day

has a complicated relationship with gods and Chosen Oaths, having the Sight has never helped

deathly afraid of large bodies of water; large is very subjective

spawned from thoughts of Belle who can keep up with the princes in fights, except in the process became too fighty and angry and stressed and plagued with existential crisis

Nievv the scorpion

former scribe and messenger to a noble. caught forging signatures then blamed for much worse

slated to hang for treason but by some stroke of peculiar luck (or curse), becomes a poison taster instead at the Rhodolite palace

reluctant apprentice to Clavis

reading glasses are not for show

What if the castle had to deal with Two Clavises ?

Wilhelmina ("Mina") the witness

fourth of eight siblings, (un) fortunately shares the same father and mother with brothers and sisters

a decorated soldier in a family that has everything planned except her being a soldier

uses a very long and very pretty gun

needed a gal to hold a certain Prince upright, then realized theyre both going to topple over if she doesnt

Henri Lambert the tower

a not-so-very-lucky palace guard

can't play cards for shit, can't stop long enough to realize it

Does not want to be in situations, is always found in the middle of situations

A soft gentleman, can be very dramatic, grumbles a "normal" amount

only recently spawned because of that one keith scene
