#mc: pandora elara

[where-the-wind-travels]

my mind has been screaming at me to play across the void ever since i got into ME so here i am 😭 meet my mc, pandora shep- i mean elara <3

disclaimer: this is literally my first ever time playing atv meaning i know absolutely nothing about it, outside of the 3 main siblings i can only name zekei and sol which is not useful given pandora will be romancing a woman (yes this playthrough is partly to soothe my angst over not being able to officially romance tali as femshep in ME) + i have pretty much no data on her yet, will come up with info about her as i play

[where-the-wind-travels]

all of my mcs ✦ masterlist (still very subject to updates)

new pinned post yippee!

note: at the time of posting (01/29) this is a very messy list because i just need to have a list somewhere (i just can't keep randomly introducing mcs and then only talk about them once or twice before forgetting about them), will be constantly editing and cleaning up the list + adding info/new mcs

another note: yes, a lot of my mcs are still incomplete 😭 and also for plenty of the mcs with "pending" in their info, i do have at the very least something about them, but either it's underdeveloped or i'm thinking about changing it

very inspired by @cadybear420 mc masterlist <3

ATV  —  pandora elara  ♡

✧  birthday  —  november 7th, year pending

✧  gender  — cis female, she/her

✧  sexuality  —  sapphic

✧  ethnicity  — black cyber

✧  in game li  — titania

✧  endgame li  — titania

✧  more  — this mc was made pretty much solely with my shepard (imagined, since i still haven't started playing ME) in mind, including the romance route, because yes i'm still salty about not being able to be in lesbians with tali. yes, the birth date was on purpose. aside from that i don't have much information about her yet, i haven't touched my atv playthrough in a while 😭

ALPHA — akira "aki" ryouken, might change last name ♡

✧ birthday — pending

✧ gender — male leaning but exact label still pending, he/him (and possibly another set of pronouns)

✧ sexuality — greysexual/romantic bi (ignore canon, he does not get instantly hard and horny for channing as soon as they meet)

✧ ethnicity — mixed black/african american and japanese, black sprite

✧ in game li — asian m!channing lowe

✧ endgame li — i doubt his relationship with channing will stay romantic, will probably either be fully single or in a qpr with him in my headcanons

✧ more — literally no one calls him akira, mostly because he doesn't even tell people that's his full name. he actually dislikes channing when they first get to know each other, but still tries to be polite yet still firm to him. ignoring canon again, that thing that happens to mc where their libido spikes right through the roof and they have an unstoppable urge to rail channing right then and there does not happen to him. in short he's a bit too lacking in urges for the canon mc.

ALPHA — calico, last name pending ♡

✧  birthday  —  pending

✧  gender  — cis female, she/her

✧  sexuality  —  sapphic and polyamorous

✧  ethnicity  — irish-american, white sprite

✧  in game li  — hispanic f!channing lowe

✧  endgame li  — channing and kala (whether it's a v or a triad is still pending, but most probably the latter)

✧  more  — she's a lot closer to the "canon" alpha mc than aki is, and similar in personality to tf kaitlyn in book 1. very open, warm and enthusiastic, also a bit of a playgirl, and does not hesitate to flirt with any girl she takes an interest in (and yes that includes channing and kala, sometimes she even flirts with both at the same time) all while being careful not to step on boundaries. she doesn't like anyone stepping on hers either but also doesn't know how to communicate it, which causes a few problems with both her girls and herself earlier on in the story.

AME — emélie, last name pending ♡

✧  birthday  —  pending

✧  gender  — cis female, she/her

✧  sexuality  —  bisexual with female preference

✧  ethnicity  — french, black sprite

✧  in game li  — handsome stranger/adam mcintyre, renamed jekyll (last name pending)

✧  endgame li  — marries jekyll in book 3

✧  more  — despite the fact canon doesn't allow you to mix and match only two personas in the game, in my headcanons she blends both the flirt and sweetheart personas. her title as of book 2 is the pin-up doll. i also want to make her flirt and/or hook up with ivy in book 1, but i know that if i do so i'll immediately have the urge to make yet another "good luck babe" type wlw pairing and hc her to dump jekyll for ivy in book 3 (and i do not want to do that to one of my first ever choices crushes), so i won't.

AOU: HER STORY — amani parish ♡

✧  birthday  —  june 28th, year pending

BP — leanne gahan ♡

✧  birthday  —  june 10th, year pending (she's 32 is what i'm sure of, but i'm still not sure if i should headcanon the story to take place in the 2000s or in 2019 like in canon)

✧  gender  — cis female, she/her

✧  sexuality  —  pansexual and ambiamorous

✧  ethnicity  — mexican-american, brown sprite

✧  in game li  — ash tanaka

✧  endgame li  — ash tanaka, but i also headcanon she had a fwb relationship with diana in college that resumes during the trip (and might continue even after she makes it official with ash, until diana finds another partner)

✧  more  — her birth name is leanne santana. she changed her last name during her goth phase, while drunk in her college years, and still embraces the change even though she's not a goth nor does she listen to depeche mode anymore. she's also a single mother but i don't have much information about that yet, only that the other parent is another woman (and not the girl she caught cheating in ch 1).

BB — raida juno pearce ♡

✧  birthday  —  november 15th, 1998

✧  gender  — cis female, she/her

✧  sexuality  —  bi and polyamorous, male preference

✧  ethnicity  — black/african american

✧  in game li  — adrian raines (native american version) and jax matsuo

✧  endgame li  — moves in with adrian and jax in the epilogue, also marries them some time later but unsure when since i want them all to get married and jax and adrian's relationship with each other develops later than their relationship with raida (not by that much but def later)

✧  more  — the most hyperfeminine pastel pink vampire you will ever meet, but also very serious and mature. is an amateur dancer since age 15 and previously worked as a club dancer since age 19 before becoming a pa. has both the clan matsuo brand on her back and the clan raines brand on her chest, because the council isn't really a thing as of book 3 and she wanted both her loves to brand her.

COP — nathan rose ♡

✧  birthday  —  pending

✧  gender  — male (still deciding if cis or trans, but will go for body type 2 regardless), he/him

✧  sexuality  —  demisexual mlm, ambiamorous

✧  ethnicity  — viet-american, ea sprite

✧  in game li  — white m!trystan thorne

✧  gender  — agender, they/them

✧  sexuality  —  attracted to men, but doesn't label themself further

✧  ethnicity  — british-indian, brown sprite

✧  in game li  — jun seong

✧  endgame li  — jun seong

✧  more  — yeah so nick was totally in love with ange. aside from the canon hints he literally got a girlfriend with the same (nick)name as his very much not female best friend, now that sounds like drama... i also want to hc them as more of a sci fi and fantasy writer, but apparently there are clues related to mc's murder mystery books and i'm pretty sure changing that would also change an important part of the story.

✧  birthday  —  march 23rd, year pending

✧  gender  — trans male, he/him

✧  sexuality  —  gay, probably also acespec

✧  ethnicity  — japanese, ea sprite

✧  in game li  — griffin langley (thinks he has a crush on shreya and has a bit of a questioning moment, but really he just wants to be like her)

✧  endgame li  — griffin langley

✧  more  — yes i purposely made haruki as fire att as possible, complete with red hair, aries sign, and a last name meaning "mysterious flame". i'm probably going to have his familiar be the arylu. also i'm going to headcanon atlas as female because why not (and yes i know that would get in the way of the reflection thing, but i'll figure something out)

ES — moi himewako ♡

✧  birthday  —  january 1st, 1996

✧  sexuality  —  sex favorable asexual lesbian

✧  ethnicity  — japanese (or well, she thinks she is), ea sprite

✧  in game li  — estela montoya

✧  endgame li  — actually does not interact romantically with estela at all in my headcanons 😭, she does have a small crush on her at first but it dissipates as soon as she gets to know michelle which i hc is her one and only love and the one she gets handfasted with

✧  more  — her first name (pronounced mo-ee) means "a hundred lives" and her last name means "young princess". her closest friends aside from michelle are diego, quinn, raj and craig, and while she had a bit of a falling out with sean after finding out what he did to michelle (which is the secret she tells moi after they have sex for the first time, like the canon lis do), she does come to consider him a close friend eventually.

TFS — melody hwang ♡

✧  birthday  —  may 6th, 1998

✧  gender  — agender, she/they/eir

✧  sexuality  —  sapphic (she never did figure out if she actually liked guys or not before she started dating kaitlyn, but they don't worry about it anymore since kaitlyn is their one and only)

✧  ethnicity  — korean-american, ea sprite

✧  in game li  — kaitlyn liao

✧  endgame li  — gets engaged to kaitlyn in the series finale and marries her 2 years later

✧  more  — her name was originally just mel, but i changed it to melody to match with their musician girlfriend. e is my ilw mc euphemia's cousin, as eir mother is the sister of one of mia's moms (specifically the one that gave birth to her). more of a poet than a writer and has helped kaitlyn write lyrics when she's short on inspiration, also has written and posted fanfic online, though under a different name from the one she uses as a published writer.

✧  sexuality  —  bisexual

✧  ethnicity  — brazilian (-american?), brown sprite

✧  in game li  — caleb mitchell

✧  endgame li  — caleb mitchell

✧  more  — same point as above, it's been a while since i last played hss, but i do remember they used to be in band and their li was aiden. i want to change him but i don't know if he should be jock or cheerleader, possibly cheerleader but i feel like he'd like the female uniform a lot more than the male one. he also was giselle, the "girl" michael had his first kiss with, and lent his birth name to the other giselle in my version of the story.

✧  endgame li  — breaks up with stacy a few months after the end of ilitw and enters a poly relationship with imogen wescott and my ilb mc, halle vance (see below)

✧  more  — her love for vampires is very deeply tied to her gender expression, not only do they dress like one and have the pronouns but they also got permanent vampire fangs at age 20. named the crow morgan, the kitten robin, and the baseball bat enma (not emma, all names are one piece references). all her friends survive at the end, vamp chose for noah to become redfield.

✧  endgame li  — gets engaged to amalia a few years after the series finale

✧  more  — i hc that matthias is her biological father (but she doesn't know it until ch 17), meaning she and lincoln are half-siblings. he cheated on his wife with mia's mother esmé, who left him after finding out he was married and moved in with her best friend miranda to "platonically co-parent" mia with her, but the relationship quickly turned romantic. like mother, like daughter.

✧  gender  — non binary transfem, they/them

✧  sexuality  —  bisexual

✧  ethnicity  — black/african american

✧  in game li  — lincoln mcquoid

✧  endgame li  — unfortunately their relationship with lincoln does not go anywhere, as they end up sacrificing themself to heal the power. me being me, i hc he ends up hooking up with abel while both are still grieving ame, and it eventually turns into a romantic relationship.

✧  more  — an impulsive and passionate fighter with a sweet tooth and a fashion sense, ame is a complete wildcard and a fairly equal mix of all three personalities. as a child, they used to want to be an astronomer, then later as they grew they wanted either a fashion or dance related job. often the earliest to wake up, whether it be to train, get ready, make themself breakfast, or simply have time alone.

✧  birthday  —  pending

✧  ethnicity  — afro-latine (exact country still pending), brown sprite

✧  in game li  — indian? callum grey (renamed hyde), f!rowan salazar, m!alexis reid, and lou (which i headcanon is female because why do flirt/hookup options always have to be tied to the li's gender in most single li books 😭 and the male version is... let's just say the female version is prettier)

✧  endgame li  — will probably be exclusive with hyde, but that could change

✧  more  — the name robin is a cover/code name that they picked because of their favorite character, nico robin from one piece. aside from that i don't have much info on them yet

✧  sexuality  —  lesbian

✧  ethnicity  — japanese (-american?), ea sprite

✧  in game li  — colt kaneko

✧  endgame li  — her "relationship" with colt is nothing but a trap to break his heart, (kinda) similarly to what logan wanted to do with her. she dumps him at prom and crashes the hotel room with ingrid instead, their relationship begins as a friendship with benefits but turns more romantic the more they get to know each other. she stays with ingrid throughout their college years and eventually gets engaged to her.

✧  more  — not only does she drastically change styles after she joins the mpc, she even forms a whole alter ego as a street racer, named mayflower and known as the "racing princess". she also becomes a lot more cynical than even her more experienced crew members, and is willing to manipulate people just to be petty. while she does realize her flaws and grow out of her "double identity", her change in fashion sense is still there after she graduates.

✧  gender  — cis female, she/her
