What Makes Your Muses Body Unique?

Simple premise. Give 5 (or more) headcanons about your muses' body. Hands, eyes, feet, birthmarks, tricks--anything! Tagged by: @tximidity

Features spanning across the ages: Past (bottom icon) and Present (top icon)

Heart shaped face seen in the detailing and relationship between the roundness of his face around his eyes and the angles of cheeks until they meet to form a pointed chin.

I've discussed it before, but I'm mentioning once more (as well as including an image) the fact he has what is known as clinodactyly. It is isolated to three fingers on each hand-- pinky, index, and ring-- with each one varying in severity from one another. All of which in that exact order. These fingers of his are also all double jointed. The bottom knuckles, however, in ALL of his fingers are bulbous in shape. They curvatures of them fit perfectly amongst each other like a puzzle. The same cannot be said about the top knuckles, though, as gaps surround his middle fingers on each sides.

He has a silly little scar at a place very few can see. One of which acquired from an injury sustained as a teenager as a result of doing something he had ought to not be up to in the first place. In an attempt to climb over a metal fence into an area he'd otherwise not been permitted into, and unsupervised at that, he managed to get comically stuck in his hurdle over it by way of his shorts getting caught onto a sticking out piece of metal. Rather than proceed with caution, he adamantly lunged downwards with all of his effort, slicing through his attire and that of the top of his gluteal cleft to the inches just above it. It isn't entirely noticeable unless one is truly looking in that area, and yet in knowing of it the male can't quite help himself from finding joy in its existence. Especially when considering the fact it acts as his nearly invisible tail each time he excitedly sways his hips as though he's wagging it via an energetic stim.

Another feature he finds to be a delight about himself is the fact he has an outie belly button. He's never wished to cosmetically change it in anyway as it has never caused him any pain or problems. He'll never be able to get a piercing there, no, but that's okay on account it looks cute as a button on its own already. It also rests perfectly within his softened stomach. It is where his fat cells deposit themselves most prominently, and has a tendency to consistently bloat forward due to a combination of stored negativity and a hormone imbalance. Muu always has, and always will, calls it his baby fat.

Speaking of body fat, Muu is otherwise rather lacking in that department as he is generally petite across the majority of his physique. Some of which is contributed to an active lifestyle dictated by consistently walking his dog, going on foot or by bicycle to places close enough to not require his vehicle, or public transport even, routine pacing in instances in which he's attempting to physically regulate out an intense emotion, a whole food diet centered on his entirely vegan lifestyle, and plenty, PLENTY of sleep. Muu's actively in bed by no later than 10pm an any given evening as he for one doesn't like to exist in the dark any longer than he has to, and also because he just is very invested in listening to his body for queues it needs an abundance of rest. Consider yourself lucky if you ever invite him to something taking place after eight pm, because by then he'd ideally like to already he in his jammies with the intention of unwinding and settling down for slumber. His slim frame is also a contribution of an underlying eating disorder centered on withholding food from himself whenever he's under the impression that he ought to be punished for his perceived failures of the day; however, he's growing more inclined to forget such a habit in favor of snacking on vitamin rich treats as hunger and hurt go more together than the version of himself who started up the habit in the first place knew about. He's also taking on the role of gentle parenting himself, which does sometimes mean sneaking himself vegan cookies to boost positivity while negative voice inside his head is distracted. All in all, he weighs an astounding 115lbs / 52kg. Already on the thin side, where one can notice it the most is in his teeny, tiny ankles. Them and his wrists are minute in their circumferences, which isn't entirely of any surprise as both his hands and feet are small for even a man of his stature. Fun fact: both his shoe size and his ring size are that of a size seven in traditional American sizing.

Lore/Biography for Ainsley (Mother of Shanks)

Basic information:

Name: Ainsley Alias: The Green Witch, The Witch of the Sirona Isles Gender: Female Age: 31 (when Shanks was born) 40 (Time of her death) Place of birth: West Blue, Sirona Isles Occupation: Herbalist/Alchemist Hair Colour: Red Appearance/FC: Kathryn Hahn

Born on the Sirona Isles, Ainsley learned the craft of herbalism from her own mother. The shop she later owns on the island was something she inherited from her parents.

While a quick learner and invested in the studies of her craft, she also always wanted to know more about the history of their island, given how the waters of the Sirona Isles indeed have healing powers. Powers that be amplified if used and applied correctly. Especially for plants, the waters have proofed to be perfect. They enhance the growth as well as their natural effects.

Personality wise Ainsley had always been curious, but she also had a tendency to be overdramatic and be petty. Traits that tend to show in her mannerism, as well as her facial expressions and the way she moves. If angered she tended to make bad decisions, not focusing on the best way to solve a problem, but rather the pettiest.

With twenty-two she took over the small herbal shop of her parents. Her knowledge in regards to plants, potions and alchemy in general quiet extensive at this point, earning herself the nicknames "The green witch" and "Witch of the Sirona Isles" a few years later.

While most residents of the islands were greatful for the shop and went to her for all kinds of tinctures and salves, as well as medical help, they were also wary of her. Knowing how petty she could be and doing their best to not anger her. They had seen first hand what she did to those who earned themselves her wrath.

Ainsley always had bad luck when it came to men and picking a partner. It had become so bad that she had debated on only seeing women from then on and ignoring men entirely, except for business. That was until she met the man who would later on turn out to be Shanks father.

Things were fine for a short while and she felt herself falling in love with him. Until one day he didn't came back anymore. Leaving her alone and pregnant, while he continued on life carefree and without acknowledging the little family he had left behind on the Sirona Isles.

Ainsley swore to herself that day to never love a man again and should she ever cross path with him again she would make sure he would know why people referred to her as the green witch and did their best to not anger her.

With Shanks being born life turned quiet troublesome. While she loved her son, he had always had been a handful and she had a hard time keeping him from getting into all kinds of plants and ruining her work on accident.

As her son grew up, she did try to teach him the basics of reading, writing and math, as well as the effects of various plants. A tedious task, given Shanks did his best to avoid any kind of lessons, deeming them boring and not interested in plants at all. He preferred adventures and tales about pirates, the sea and treasures.

If Ainsley would still be alive, she would highly disapprove of her sons "career choice". While it had been clear to her that, even if she wished he would, he would never take over the herbal shop and sooner or later wish to go out at sea, she wished he would've at least became a marine or maybe a merchant, but not a pirate.

While not interested in the craft of alchemy/herbalism, Shanks did enjoy a certain song his mother tended to sing/hum. A song Ainsley learned from her own mother and goes the following:

(Listen to this for the melody)

The Witches Road (rewritten by Akki)

Verse 1

Seek ye out the road where shadowed whispers dwell, Summon forth the powers, bound by rune and spell. Oldes fire, dark desire, woven long ago, Breath and bind with heart alinged and watch the magic grow.

Chorus

Down, down, down the road, Down the witches' road. [ 3x ] Lines of fate entwine, Unlock the ancient sign.

Verse 2

Through the hidden forest, under moon's full glow, I stray not from the path, with secrets none may know. Ancient light, lend me sight, and shadows by my side If one should fall, I heed the call, with fire as my guide.

Chorus

Down, down, down the road Down the witches road [ 3x ] Rite of flesh and bone, Seeker, keeper, crone

Verse 3

The road is dark and winding, hidden in the trees, Where all that's wrong is right and all that's bad is good Through twisted trails, where secrets wail, we walk the shadowed code Cast off fear, a door appears, to lead us down the road

Chorus

Down, down, down Down the witches road [ 3x ] Journey deep within, Where mystery begins

-ˋˏ OOC / Hello hello everyone! Please allow me to introduce Geonwoo (aka Geon), one of the twin siblings of House Choi ( very coincidental to the fc I chose but I felt he fit! ). Please feel free to read more about him below. You can also find a profile here. ♡ this post if you'd like to plot. ✶ sera , 21+ , she/her . ( discord : serachasauce )

TRAITS ⸻ steadfast, patient, proper, brutally honest, quiet, loyal, callous, subservient, insecure, stoic, observant, stern, a bit selfish, argumentative.

⸻ ABOUT HIM

One of the only ( or possibly the only ) sons in House Choi. He is also a twin.

Like many other nobles, he has trained his entire life. Due to his family's unique lineage, he is a highly skilled lavabender (preferring it over standard firebending) and swordsman with a propensity for using his fists. He must be, considering his position as a member of the royal guard.

Has an itching suspicion about the death of his parents, all things considered. Part of his undying loyalty may partially be due to the fact that he has hidden worries.

Serial eavesdropper. It’s all for the sake of protecting the royal family. Seriously.

Not much interest in politics and such. Doesn’t follow the commands of anyone but the royal family, even viewing their word as priority. The only other one he would think to bend to is his eldest sister.

Always lurking, even if you don’t see him. Always.

His personality could obviously use some work but he’s oddly touched by art ( paintings, music, dance ) and will often be quietly moved by these things. 

He also enjoys trying to sketch in his free time. They aren’t the best because he doesn’t get much practice in. Don’t try to look in the little notebook he always carries around or you will get a kick to the throat.

Usually doesn’t speak unless spoken to unless he outranks the other person. Courtesy and all that. He is very polite and adherent to the rules of the palace. Don’t let him catch you slipping!

Says things that are lowkey dramatic asf. Cue the “you deserve to be put to death for that” ^ comments. But... usually means it as a joke... I swear. He is actually quite cheeky sometimes.

Keen on punishment, as he does not tolerate dissidents. He is dedicated to keeping peace within the nation and palace, even if it means resorting to violence to eliminate the threat.

Has a sadistic streak and can often get a bit too into a fight sometimes.

You will probably never know if he hates you or not. Poker face at all times. But he is candid and honest with his words, perhaps to a fault. But (2) he is adept in speaking in metaphor/vaguely if a situation calls for it.

Feels and will claim that he's unworthy of love. Too willing to not make any first moves out of worry and waits it out until it's too late every time.

Kind of aware that he is a bit of an asshole sometimes because of his curt personality. Not actually that mean or malicious, just very, very bound to his duty.

He was always closest to his father out of both of his parents, following very obediently in his footsteps and according to his word up until his death. He takes offense to any negative word against either of his parents, and it is one of the few things that can make him genuinely upset.

⸻ PLOT IDEAS

I’m mainly a brainstorm it out kinda girl but there are a couple of ideas that could possibly work as pre-est connections.

The classic childhood friend plot? Someone around the same age.

Someone he constantly catches breaking the rules. Please convince him not to punish you harshly. Good luck. ALT. You witness him being a little too harsh on someone and try to intervene.

Friendly rival. Someone he is cautious of; though, they have their fun moments of sword practicing and that good old banter.

Rival rival. Wow, he really doesn’t like you at all and perceives you as a threat to himself or the royal family. Or both.

An actual confidant. This could be super rare because he finds it incredibly difficult to trust anyone whatsoever due to his position. He doesn't talk much but with them, it's different. Someone who won't just go spreading his stuff around.

Someone he can appreciate the arts with. Maybe an actual artist/someone who’s talented in that field.

A past fling maybe but not much beyond that. He might as well be married to his duties and wasn’t interested when he was younger. 

Maybe someone who would like him to teach them how to improve their fighting skills. They might have to beg though... or bribe him with goodies.

Those who are intent on challenging his ( seemingly ) unwavering support for the current reigning family. This could result in some increasing tension or an attempt at softly convincing him of their position.

the covenant (2006) - caleb danvers

big thanks to @astral-athame, who helped me tremendously with this guy's portrayal via her lovely OC Cassia Keller!

Full Name: Caleb William Danvers

Age: 35 as of Jan. 2023 (born Sept. 9, 1988)

Gender/Sex: cis-male

Sexuality: Bisexual

Ethnicity: White (English & Irish descent on his father's side, English on his mother's)

Appearance (FC: Steven Strait)

Caleb is a young man who stands at 6'2" (1.88 m). His light skin doesn't tan or burn easily. He maintains a toned frame. He inherited his mother's straight black hair & bright smile, in addition to his father's warm brown eyes. His clothing aesthetic is simple in his younger years, with him often throwing coats over a t-shirt & jeans. As he gets older, his profession requires him to dress formally, so his casual style is affected; he begins wearing flannels & long-sleeved shirts under sweaters & nice coats, as he feels encouraged to do so. He also goes from wearing contacts to glasses (he's farsighted) & he allows himself to grow some neatly-trimmed scruff.

Personality (tw: mental illness)

Caleb is a stereotypical Virgo, more or less: modest, hardworking, observant, intelligent, reliable, worrying & perfectionistic. People are drawn to his incredibly kind nature. He's a true friend who isn't afraid to stand up for others, even if he hardly knows the person who needs his help. Caleb puts 100% into everything he does, which means that he's a badass at what he loves, but it also means that (in his case) he struggles with Generalized Anxiety Disorder. He's taken medication for it since he was a teen. Part of his anxiety definitely has to do with his family & friends, who he constantly tries to keep safe & happy. Caleb's worst trait is probably his stubborn streak; though it helps him persevere, he has trouble admitting when he's wrong & if he's suspicious of someone, he won't accept them into her inner circle. Though some in town aren't aware that he's bisexual, he's never actually been closeted. He just doesn't put it out there unless asked about it. Caleb might have one-night stands if he's lonely, but he prefers steady relationships (monogamous or polygamous). He only drinks alcohol if he's in an extreme depression & avoids it otherwise, due to his mother's condition.

History

Caleb was born to Evelyn & William (the III) Danvers, who had a decently sized fortune as a result of their family's past helping found their town of Ipswich. He was soon joined by his three friends Pogue, Reid & Tyler, who were also children of the founding families; all were dubbed the Sons of Ipswich. They did everything together, including inherit their share of the Power, the magical abilities that the oldest son of each founding family gets upon turning 13. By this time, Caleb had discovered his love for swimming, his crush on his best friend (Pogue) & his academic ability. Unfortunately, he was also old enough to notice both his father's declining health & his mother's resulting alcoholism. He tried to take care of his parents while maintaining a vibrant social life & making a path to Harvard Law. Caleb managed, but before he turned 18 his father would be moved to the groundskeeper's home, as the man required 24-hr care. Only a year after, he'd meet Sarah Wenham & Chase Collins. While dating Sarah, he was surprised to learn that Chase not only had a crush on him, but that Chase also wielded the Power & was out to steal it from Caleb & his friends after killing them. After a duel, Caleb ended up with his father's Power (as the older man sacrificed himself). Chase was nowhere to be found. Caleb would end up with nightmares & serious PTSD stemming from that event. However, he successfully got into Harvard & became a prosecutor years later, all while still friends with the boys from his childhood.

Powers/Abilities

Telekinesis - he uses it to lift objects or enhance his strength

Pyrokinesis - this is his elemental specialty; the others manipulate Water (Pogue), Air (Reid), Earth (Tyler) & Psyche (Chase)

Teleportation - it's more difficult over greater distances

Sensing - he can sense when the Sons use the Power

Skills/Hobbies

swimming - his high school team went to regionals

cooking - he learned from the former maid, to take care of his mom when she would check out or be unconscious for a while

reading - he enjoys older mysteries & adventure novels

playing with his dog - he has a Golden Retriever, Shasta

languages - he knows English, Spanish & some Latin

playing guitar - he learned as a teenager

Hello!! I am a 21F detailed writer currently on the search for an oc x oc rp with dark romance, psychological thriller, and dead dove-coding. I recently watched the bully revenge Kdrama 'the glory', and I'm dying to write a twisted bully story. I'm DYING for a plot with a dose of psychological exploration, where obsessiveness and possession are in full force, alongside power imbalances, twisted behaviours occuring from both ocs, with a (pitch black) dark romance being kindled. The rp could even be one with a split timeline of the past where the harsh bullying occurs in high school/college, to the present where something darker reignites in the characters' lives due to their shared past as a bully/victim pair. I have more than a couple of ideas for how this rp could go, which I'll happily share in DMs or on discord. The key trait of this plot would be that neither of the characters are stable or entirely moral.

To sell myself as a compatible partner, I am an experienced advanced literate–novella writer with a relaxed reply schedule (translation: I will never pressure you for replies). I am someone who is always up to headcanon and plot development in ooc because I believe this is just as important and FUN (!!) as the main rp. If you're a writer who likes to discuss the ocs, pairings, headcanons, pinterest boards/aesthetics, and playlists together, then we'll match well!! When it comes to this rp, I have very few triggers, and I am open to most darker kinks and dead dove themes (including mindbreak), so hit me with as much twistedness as you desire.

For this plot, I am interested in MxF and FxF pairings or even reverse harem/mumu. (Cismen DNI, I prefer to write with other F/nb writers. Also, interested in writing with fellow 18+ writers only!!) As of right now, I'm looking to play an F character with the victim role in this rp (my character will not be dominant one as an fyi, though they won't be completely submissive either unless your character fully breaks them). Also, East Asian fcs are a strong preference for this rp, but it's not a hard requirement, we can also just forego fcs and use aesthetic vibes for the characters' too.

OC discussion

I do need to talk about the fact that most Varian x OCs ships, mainly the problem about OCs in general since all of them are females and some of them are self-inserts of the author which lead to believe that the fandom won't prefer making OCs that are primarily made for shipping reasons, therefore the OCs were created to be shipped with another OC of theirs or from another person's social media's OC but male OCs shipped with Varian is most likely like a taboo for the fandom and people use the excuse to say that we are only creating male OCs because we would change a character's gender despite our gender is not the same as the OC or that we should create OCs that are appropriate to our gender, which annoys me. Just because I am a female IRL doesn't mean I won't make an OC that is a male (albeit I could create a female OC). About the age; The fan characters are often when they are shipped and the same age as Varian due to a certain ship name. The same logic could apply to male fan characters, but we all know what happens if a male OC is shipped with Varian. I do often stick with female and male OCs but in the fandom, I stick with not just female FCs but male fan characters.

I do create OCs once I get used to the fandom's lore.

But then TTS FCs are way more developed and complex which could make it hard to create a unique trait of yours without someone already having the trait that you wished you had for your FCs and body types, so I went with a male OC which would be only developed and complex if I asked a TTS fan who knows about this.

The FC would be asexual and demiromantic.

I do like straight ships especially Eugunzel but the homosexuals are not bad but if you do not count the ships that are problematic, I am fine and okay with movie cliches and tropes that I do like rather than ones I do not like.

FULL NAME: Maxine Bernice Kelly NICKNAME(S): Max AGE: Forty GENDER: Cis-Female PRONOUNS: She/Her BIRTHPLACE: Harlem, Manhattan OCCUPATION: Tattoo Artist & Body Piercer, Underground fighter GANG AFFILIATION: Associate of The Dead Hand FC: Tessa Thompson

APPEARANCE

HAIR COLOUR: Black EYE COLOUR: Brown HEIGHT: 5”5 PIERCINGS?:Both ears & nipples, tongue. TATTOOS: Full sleeve on left arm that spans her shoulder blade also. Behind her left ear, on her right hip and underbust.

TRAITS

POSITIVE: Focused, Loyal, Grounded NEGATIVE: Critical, Pessimistic, Indelicate

BACKGROUND

death tw

Maxine was destined to get involved with the seedy underbelly of NYC. While her mom worked nights, her dad took her to his job ; from a baby she’d been in a car seat while he beat people up for money, sold drugs, engaged in routine intimidation of local businessmen and politicians. It was a job the man was good at, so why stop doing it now? Why not let Maxine know that this was really how the world really worked. There were only two types of people; the strong and the weak. He asked Maxine, one day while doing her maths homework, what type do you want to grow into?

She chose to be strong.

It was the answer her father wanted, if he couldn’t have a son then Maxine would become one. She signed up for boxing, track, MMA, started to routinely bully kids for their money or lunches - when she got a little older, it transitioned into selling cigarettes and providing some of the meaner kids with needed backup when other schools came for events, or just turned up at lunch for a brawl. Thanks to her dads name, Maxine also got into underground fighting rings, lying about her age so she could take down women twice her age. The money got split, and she’d go get her hair done with it or buy some new sneakers. Questions were asked about her bruises of course but, the girl did so much sport there had to be accidents. Sometimes on the quad she got into fights but not so much anymore. There was an opportunity talked about; the Olympics. Maxine could get onto their training programme, maybe even the squad with a few years under their wing, groomed into a professional athlete. The teenager couldn’t wait to get out from Harlem, move onto better things. What made it better was that her father seemed to approve of this to - they’d have to work on Maxine’s discipline.

But, there was a secret the young girl couldn’t tell him. That was, that Maxine had discovered a secret talent, a hobby she enjoyed more than beating others up, than revealing in violence. Art. In secret, she worked on a portfolio. It was a backup, she told herself, just in case everything fell through, an apprenticeship in Portland. Except, when two opportunities came knocking at the same time, Maxine knew which one she’d prefer. Her father of course intercepted both, confronting Maxine about which opportunity would really get her out of their shitty neighborhood, and allow her to make a life for herself. All her life, she’d done what he wanted and in a fit of rage, she smacked her dad.

He went down, smacking his head open on the fireplace as he did so.

The decision was made for her then. The young woman covered it up, said she came home and found him like that. His line of work meant that he had plenty of enemies, nobody suspected Maxine. She moved out to Portland, taking up an apprenticeship for a tattoo studio and attending a local arts programme. America held too much pain, though, and after befriending a Japanese student, she would go to Kyoto to train under masters of the tattoo craft. Getting involved with low-level Yakuza only seemed to be a natural progression, especially after she stopped a local underboss from getting murdered at night on the streets. The fighting she’d left behind only followed her.

Years later, Maxine followed some members back to America, taking up shop at Yami Ink and still serving the Dead Hand even in another country.

TRAITS

POSITIVE: Funny, Confident, Dedicated NEGATIVE: Impulsive, Unreasonable, Boisterous

BACKGROUND

TW drugs, murder, child abuse, child neglect, death, prison

Does it matter when he was born? Donovan doesn’t think so, life’s a blur when you’re that age, it only really begins when you can remember it did. He remembers stained mattresses, sandwiches of white bread and jelly and reruns of late night cop shows. The house was filthy, he was filthy, yet nobody seemed to care about it. What he does know is he was angry, always angry, as his sisters and brothers came along all he felt was rage at the person he called mother laid on the couch, staring with glazed eyes at the ceiling and father, drinking from large bottles of vodka and smacking his face when he didn’t change a diaper. Donovan tried - he always tried to make things easier, tried to make sure there was food in the cupboards, tried to make sure his momma didn’t choke on her vomit, that when men came over they all stayed in their rooms and waited for them to leave. If teachers or parents at school noticed how small all the Kowalski kids were, they didn’t say anything, a scruffy family.

Things like this don’t end well, and to this day Donovan doesn’t know what happened. The shed out in the woods, the one where substances were made (they brew potions, he once told his younger sister, dangerous ones so you need to stay out) suddenly blew into a storm of fire and death. Donovan lost both his parents.

He should’ve called someone but didn't. He knew what would happen - they’d split up the remainder of the family. Once again he tried to keep things going, selling jewelry, telling the others that it was just them now. Mom and Dad weren’t coming back, but it was going to be alright. The money ran out though, the food ran out and one day his younger sister let slip to someone who cared that Mummy hadn’t been around for nearly two weeks now. Not once did he say anything, lips tightly shut as he sat in a small chair in a room that was painted brightly. Toys on the floor, cartoon stickers for doing so well talking to the nice officer lady! Bodies were recovered, fractured events pieced together. Donovan hugged them all and said he’d come visit. Then the Kowalski kids were split up, and he never saw any of them again. 

Fast forwards to orphanages, fostering, kicked out for running away. Another family, knocking out his step-brothers front tooth. Another family, kicking the cat. Another family, stealing cigarettes. It didn’t matter how loving they were, how many difficult kids they’d worked with, Donovan was always the breaking point. He barely attended school, preferring to hang out in parks or on street corners with his friends and commit petty arson and robberies. This behavior escalated, sending him to juvie once or twice before Donovan aged out of the system. It was always petty crime and shitty jobs, though his criminal history meant they were hard to come by. Luck was never on his side till he ended up at the wrong place at the wrong time - a gang fight. It was nothing to do with him of course, he was familiar with some low-level activities but not this. He shouldn’t have got involved but he did, jabbing a blade into someone’s neck to save another life as the cop sirens came screaming down the street. In those few brief moments, a deal was made - Donovan would take the rat for a capo and no matter the sentence, would be allowed into the gang as thanks afterwards. 

Prison was prison, a 6 year stretch that saw Donnie 26 when he finally left but, at least he had somewhere to go after - White Crocodile’s made good on their word, and invited him to their gang.

Welcome, Lady Sabitha Frey!

We’re delighted to see they have arrived safely on their journey to King’s Landing.

Around the court the twenty six years old has been praised as affectionate, fun and intelligent woman but some have whispered they are also sharp-tongued, masculine and if rumors are to be believed, she is more than fond of her female companions.

Upon their arrival it is clear that they are excited about the upcoming coronation of Westeros' first ruling queen, and while the eyes of our court may be fixed on our new Queen, House Targaryen, and the future of Westeros, their true allegiance will always be to herself and her son.

Positive traits:

• Affectionate, she is really kind and gentle with her people, smallfork or highborn alike.

• Fun, she is capable of making jokes to lighten the mood of any party.

• Intelligent, she is an educated woman with a vast knowledge of arithmetics and politics.

Negative traits:

• Sharp-tongued, she will not hesitate to insult anyone who offends her or her family.

• Masculine, her non-lady-like actitude has affected her reputation severely.

• Her relationships with other ladies has damage her family reputation as rumors spread of numerous nights sharing mattress with other women.

Headcanons:

• Sabitha Frey neé Vypern is a political savvy woman who could rule in her husband's name.

• Her son and heir is usually sick, so she takes great care of him.

• She secretly writes poems for her female companions but will always denied it in public.

• Her relationship with her husband is cordial and cold, they rarely share bed. Regardless, there's no doubt her son is legitimate as Sabitha doesn't interact with men often.

• She prefers being outside and enjoys riding and hunting along side her husband or alone.

OC Muse: Munoh, an Independent (Heretic) Occuria

[Bio and other information below the cut!]

Type of Character & Fandom/Source Material: OC muse, Munoh (Mew-NO) the Occuria, from the FFXII fandom.

FC: Themself! I actually sat down and edited a pic of an Occuria, putting together an entirely new one from parts of at least four of them, heh. So they should look like an Occuria, but not like any of the canon ones. I tried! XD Below is the whole version of the pic that I used for the banner, sans their magical glow so you can see the detail in their body. =)

Alignment: Neutral Good

Race: Occuria

Age: Ancient (in other words, nobody really knows, heh)

Gender: Agender (without gender)

Preferred pronouns: They honestly don't care if you use she/her or he/him, that really doesn't bother them, but they prefer they/them. They do take offense to the use of "it," as they see that as condescending.

Personal identity: They refer to themselves as "I," not as "we" as most Occuria do. They share this practice with Venat, for the same reasons. Having defected from the views that humekind needs to be guided to perform the will of the Occuria to maintain balance, Munoh no longer considers themself part of the collective, and therefore, quite rebelliously, refers to themself as "I," "me," and "myself," instead of "we," "us," and "ourselves.")

Sexual/Romantic Orientation: None

Family: I suppose the other Occuria, but they're pretty damn angry at Munoh right now. XD

Potentially Triggering Material in Threads: war; violence; trauma; mental illness; manipulation; depression

Positive Personality Traits: They are empathetic, curious, determined, understanding, and helpful. They are also very good listeners, and genuinely care about the well-being of humes and other mortal races.

Negative Personality Traits: The biggest one is arrogance, which all Occuria share due to their age and immense power, but as far as Occuria go, Munoh is not nearly as arrogant as some of the others. They can also become nervous and tend to fret if they are worried about something or someone. They will lash out against anyone or anything that threatens their current chosen mortal that they are overseeing.

BACKGROUND: 

Not much is known about the Occuria. At the time FFXII takes place, they are considered gods by the hume (human) race because of their ancient age, their magical power, and their ability to hold sway over mankind. The Occuria are essentially the last members of an extremely powerful, magical race of incorporeal beings with the ability to shapeshift, make themselves invisible, make themselves inaudible, and to bestow power and magical ability onto mortals. Centuries ago, they bestowed magical powers upon King Raithwall, the first Dynast King and Ashelia's ancestor.

The last remaining members of this race have formed a council of sorts who feel it is their duty to maintain balance and order. If one hume nation, country, kingdom, empire, etc. becomes too powerful, it is punished and reduced in some way. If one has been wronged, it is raised up, assisted, or granted help through the process of selecting a "chosen savior." This is a hume the Occuria have chosen to act on Earth and in Ivalice to push the tide of war back towards balance.

For example, in FFXII, Ashelia is chosen by the Occurian council, partly because of her blood connection to Raithwall and partially because of the injustice done to Dalmasca, and granted a magical sword to help her create powerful nethicite weapons from a much larger cryst. With the shards she could cut from that cryst with the sword the Occuria granted her, she could obliterate the Archadian Empire, thus restoring balance and avenging her kingdom. Billions of innocent people would die in the process, but this was necessary to restore balance the Occuria said.

In FFXII, there is one Occuria named Venat who defects from the council. They believe that mankind should control its own fate, not be forced to adhere to the guidance of the Occuria. They do not need guidance, and should be permitted and free to explore and reach their full potential, whatever that may be. To prove this point, he chooses Vayne Solidor as his "savior" and guides him to amass as much power as he wishes by developing a manmade form of nethicite (manufacted nethicite) that is made in a laboratory (through Dr. Cid's research) from magicite ore. This would allow Vayne an endless supply of nethicite that does not need to be granted him by the Occuria. Deifacted nethicite is only bestowed by the Occuria using a sword given to their chosen one with which they cut a large cryst the location of which is only shared with that person. So Vayne eagerly accepts this guidance from Venat, wanting to expand the Archadian Empire indefinitely.

Now... where Munoh comes in... is that they have also defected from the Occurian council, so they do not believe in guiding (or coercing, manipulating, tricking, etc.) humes into potentially committing terrible atrocities for the purpose of "resetting the world balance." However, unlike Venat, Munoh does not believe humes should run amok and take what they want at the expense of others either. Munoh believes in not pushing humes to do anything they don't want to do, and instead, just letting them live their lives. If they destroy themselves, that might be their destiny, but it could just as easily be that they will restore balance on their own through their own means and with their own minds. They don't believe the Occuria should intervene at all.

Their views have gotten them rejected from the Occurian council and thrown into exile on Earth, something they... really don't mind. In checking up on the last remaining living descendants of Raithwall, Munoh saw that the council was already manipulating Ashelia Dalmasca. Their searches took them to a very distraught Caelen Dalmasca (see his info post for more detail on him), one of Ashelia's brothers. Seen as a pathetic failure by the Occurian council because he lacked the drive and rage Ashelia possessed for exacting revenge on the Archadian Empire, he was ignored by the ancient beings. So Munoh... took him under their wing, so to speak.

Again, you can read up on Caelen to find out more about his relationship with Munoh and how other humes viewed him because of it, but essentially Munoh encouraged Caelen to make some kind of difference in the world... but in a way he wanted to, not because anyone told him to, or because he felt like it was expected of him. Munoh celebrates the free will and unpredictability of humes and finds it very beautiful. Sometimes it is used for and brings about evil, but sometimes it is used for and brings about goodness too. Munoh believes Caelen has a good heart and wants to support him in his endeavors, offering aid here and there when it is needed but otherwise simply keeping Caelen company as he tries to sort out his life. They are fiercely protective of him (or of any muse they might decide upon as their "chosen one") and will protect him if need be.

Potential Starter Ideas:

Your muse might encounter Munoh with Caelen if he's the focus of a thread, or Munoh might approach your muse if they're someone Caelen has been interacting with. Maybe your muse thought Caelen had mental health issues, talking to and interacting with thin air, until that thin air appeared before them and starting talking to them too. XD

Or your muse could be chosen by Munoh, which means they'll offer their guidance and help for whatever your muse wants to achieve in life. Maybe they've taken an interest in your muse and have some questions, wanting to know more about them. Maybe your muse's motives confuse them and they want clarification. They are a very curious sort. =)

Munoh might be convinced to help in certain battles or to oppose Venat, for muses who might be in a FFXII setting. But this would definitely take some convincing because they usually like to stay out of human conflict.

I'm not sure how Munoh would fit into a MCU verse, but I'm sure we could work something out!

Of her family, Tara maintained the closest and longest connection with her elder brother Omar. The two traveled together for several years after leaving Chicago, and his eventual death after being bitten by a clicker significantly impacted her. Tara currently has no known family members. 

Partner/Significant other: TBD (see wanted connections).

Friends: TBD (see wanted connections). 

Enemies: TBD (see wanted connections).

Significant Background Events

PRE-2013:

Only aged 16 at the time of the outbreak, Tara grew up in an average middle-class immigrant household in the Gage Park neighborhood of Chicago. Tara was the third of five children, and was raised in a multi-generational home that included grandparents, aunts and uncles, and several cousins. Her early life was by all accounts pleasant. She enjoyed reading and writing, was an athlete of above-average talent on her high school’s track team, and had a close-knit group of friends. 

THE CHICAGO QZ 2014-2020:

As a resident in a large city, the events following the outbreak and leading to the establishment of the Chicago QZ were notably horrific. Several members of Tara’s family became infected, and others were lost in the subsequent bombings and chaos. When the walls of the QZ were at last erected, Tara’s large family had been condensed significantly to include her, three of her four siblings, her mother, and two uncles. 

Life under FEDRA proved difficult, and the Khalil family were subjected alongside many other civilians to long working days, limited rations, and cruel overseers. Tara’s younger siblings were enrolled in FEDRA’s schooling with the hopes of one day becoming soldiers, while Tara and her other family members toiled in more labor-intensive roles. Resentment and hunger became constant companions during these days, and anger slowly simmered throughout the city as whispers of a better life began to grow. 

UPRISING 2020-2022:

The Fireflies, undoubtedly seeing an opportunity to gain a foothold in a major city and unseat FEDRA, began to sow the seeds of unrest. A civilian uprising alongside Firefly members broke out, and war raged for the better part of two years as control for Chicago was wrestled over. Tara, who was in her early twenties at the time, was protected by her elder relatives as best they could, though she could not be shielded from the realities of war. It was during this time, with no other option available to her, that Tara learned to fear strangers and defend herself at all costs. 

Her younger siblings, who were essentially property of FEDRA, disappeared during this time period. Their whereabouts remain unknown to this day, though Tara has long-since presumed they died during the uprising. This was a time of excessive violence and fear, and additionally claimed the lives of one of Tara’s uncles and her mother. 

FIREFLY-LED CHICAGO 2022-2023:

After FEDRA was at last ousted from Chicago, the Fireflies took control of the QZ. A tentative peace reigned for a short period of time before those who’d participated in the uprising began to voice their desire to be controlled by no one – FEDRA or Firefly. Tara’s remaining uncle became a prominent voice amongst those who claimed that it was possible for the people of Chicago to govern themselves, and he assisted in instigating attacks on Fireflies. This eventually led the organization to pull out of Chicago. 

HUNTER-CONTROLLED CHICAGO 2023-2026:

Best-laid plans swiftly went awry, and it was not long before Tara’s uncle – alongside others who’d vied for power for the people – were killed. This brutal killing left Tara and her elder brother Omar as the only members of the once-large Khalil family left standing. Both siblings were forced to adapt to the chaos of what Chicago had become: they scavenged and stole, and killed before asking questions. They became versions of themselves they did not know they were possible of becoming, and convinced one another that they had no choice – that the only human parts of them left would be for each other. 

Eventually, Omar spoke of leaving Chicago in favor of finding a new place to call home – the city was low on supplies and increasingly at risk of attack by the infected – and Tara agreed. 

ON THE ROAD 2026-2033:

Tara and Omar encountered more of what they’d seen inside Chicago as they traversed the remnants of America: survivors who were willing to kill to live another day, and infected who only became increasingly monstrous as the virus raged through their decrepit bodies. They continued to act much as they had in Chicago: they took what they needed and did not ask questions. When the two bunked down for the evenings, Omar would often speak of his hopes for a better world – one almost like the one they’d known in their youth. Tara, disillusioned by all she’d experienced, was reluctant to believe that such a thing might be possible. 

Rumors of Jackson eventually caught the ears of the wanderers, and Omar insisted they travel West in search of the settlement. Tara believed it to be no more than a myth, but agreed nonetheless to go on the fruitless venture – believing if nothing else they might find a temporary home along the way. 

While en route to Jackson, Tara and Omar came upon a group of clickers while scavenging an old supermarket. In an effort to save Tara, Omar offered himself as a distraction, and was subsequently bitten. At his urging, Tara was forced to end his life. He made her promise to continue in search of Jackson before his death.

LIFE IN JACKSON 2033-PRESENT: Tara eventually found her way to Jackson. That the settlement was not only real but a veritable Eden seemed like a cruel joke to the woman who’d lost the one person she’d had left, who’d wanted nothing more than to find a little slice of the world before. Tara opted to stay in Jackson to fulfill Omar’s wishes, yet feels as though she does not fit in – she has seen too much and done too much, and cannot relate to those happy citizens who’ve found peace in the new world.

Tara has resided in Jackson for approximately 8 months.

Wanted Connections

GENERAL DYNAMICS: Open to all, multiple characters can occupy the same dynamic, etc.

Friends: Tara struggles to trust others, and can have a cold exterior. I would love to explore individuals who may come from similarly troubled pasts whom she can relate to, or individuals who are otherwise able to break through her shell and access the woman underneath it. 

Enemies: Old enemies and new enemies! Tara’s past as a hunter means that she’s hurt people and taken lives. There may be some who are naturally wary of her based on who she is and what they believe she’s done – whether or not it's entirely true – and perhaps there are even some residents whom she once knew or knew in passing in her life before (see more in “old faces”). She can be an intense person with an angry streak, so it will likely be easier for her to make enemies than friends. 

Old Faces: I would love to explore individuals who may have known Tara or have run into her over the years. Individuals who have been in the Chicago QZ (during any of its iterations as a FEDRA QZ, Firefly base, or hunter hub) or those wanderers whom she may have met out on the road. Tara may have at one point stolen from your character and held them at gunpoint, harmed someone your character loved…or maybe they caught her and her brother in a rare moment of peace, and they shared a meal around a fire before parting ways. I’m open to almost anything, hit me up with your ideas!

SPECIFIC DYNAMICS: See below.  Oh you’re the one TARA KHALIL has been looking for? Their LOVER has been long gone, but you might recognize them as FC UTP, rumored to be 30+ years old. If you stumble upon them, please leave a message for @BEYONDPAROXYSM. Please review Tara’s character bio! This resident of Jackson and Tara have come together based predominantly off of physical attraction. Tara considers Y/M to be a warm body – she enjoys the pleasure they get from one another, but displays little interest in making a true emotional connection. I’m open to plotting this dynamic in any number of directions – they can become friends, enemies, forge an emotional bond and become a true pairing, etc! All ideas welcome.

[novella-writers]

Hello!! I am a 21F detailed writer currently on the search for an oc x oc rp with dark romance, psychological thriller, and dead dove-coding. I recently watched the bully revenge Kdrama 'the glory', and I'm dying to write a twisted bully story. I'm DYING for a plot with a dose of psychological exploration, where obsessiveness and possession are in full force, alongside power imbalances, twisted behaviours occuring from both ocs, with a (pitch black) dark romance being kindled. The rp could even be one with a split timeline of the past where the harsh bullying occurs in high school/college, to the present where something darker reignites in the characters' lives due to their shared past as a bully/victim pair. I have more than a couple of ideas for how this rp could go, which I'll happily share in DMs or on discord. The key trait of this plot would be that neither of the characters are stable or entirely moral.

To sell myself as a compatible partner, I am an experienced advanced literate–novella writer with a relaxed reply schedule (translation: I will never pressure you for replies). I am someone who is always up to headcanon and plot development in ooc because I believe this is just as important and FUN (!!) as the main rp. If you're a writer who likes to discuss the ocs, pairings, headcanons, pinterest boards/aesthetics, and playlists together, then we'll match well!! When it comes to this rp, I have very few triggers, and I am open to most darker kinks and dead dove themes (including mindbreak), so hit me with as much twistedness as you desire.

For this plot, I am interested in MxF and FxF pairings or even reverse harem/mumu. (Cismen DNI, I prefer to write with other F/nb writers. Also, interested in writing with fellow 18+ writers only!!) As of right now, I'm looking to play an F character with the victim role in this rp (my character will not be dominant one as an fyi, though they won't be completely submissive either unless your character fully breaks them). Also, East Asian fcs are a strong preference for this rp, but it's not a hard requirement, we can also just forego fcs and use aesthetic vibes for the characters' too.

Like or interact if interested, and I'll get back to you ASAP. ⛓️🕊

Like if interested!

Wakana Winter Shark Festival Vol.#2 ~ Birthday Eve Cross Talk Event ~ LIVE COMMENTARY

It’s almost time for Vol.#2 of last year’s “Wakana Winter Shark Festival ～ Special Cross Talk Event ～ ”. As always I will be doing a live reaction to the event. Tweet by Wakana |

‖Event details Botanical Land members-ONLY streaming event Title: “Wakana Winter Shark Festival Vol.#2 ~ Birthday Eve Cross Talk Event ~” Date: December 9, 2022 (Friday) Time: 19:00~ (JST) Cast: Wakana, Yuuka Nanri (guest)

‖Ticket details Ticket sales: Bitfan tickets ; Livestream: Bitfan Live Sales period: November 18 18:00 to December 14 23:59 Archive period: ~December 18 ● Event viewing ticket ¥ 2,000 (tax included) ※ For FC members ONLY In order to buy a ticket, please refer to the tutorial provided by Botanical Land! I have also written my own tutorial for her previous FC event so feel free to check that out! Bitfan is a very foreigner-friendly platform so be sure to use this opportunity!

Ohhh, her hair looks darker here than it did in the recent pictures. Makes me happy. I was sad to see her darker go but it seems it was just the lighting that made it look like she had dyed her hair. She definitely cut it though but oh well, she obviously still looks gorgeous.XD Hearing Yuuka and Wakana reflect on last year’s live is getting me so excited for this year’s concert!! Also, they are planning to hold another event like this together. This time to celebrate Yuuka’s birthday in March.

Question Corner: Q1: To which prefecture would you like to travel together? Wakana would like to go to Shimane prefecture because she received some amazing omiyage from there a while back (Yōkan). Q2: Recent items that have a healing effect on you? Obviously it’s plants for Wakana  Q3: Do they buy Year-End Jumbo Lottery tickets? Yes, Wakana does indeed buy them and if she won, she would use the money for her plants Q4: Ways to calm down and work on blood pressure? Concentrate and think about the universe Q5: How would they spend a day if they lived together? They imagine it would be fun. Wakana is ready to do all the laundry because she loves it. Wakana doesn’t eat carbs in the evening so they would have trouble figuring out dinner since Yuuka prefers to eat carbs. Wakana is jealous that Yuuka manages to stay so thin even though she eats a lot of carbs. Wakana warns that she loses a lot of hair so that might be annoying for anyone who lives with her. Q6: If they could change voices, which of their respective song would they like to sing? They pretty much just praise each other’s voice here. Yuuka would love to sing Christmas songs if she had Wakana’s voice because she feels like Wakana’s voice fits these types of songs perfectly. Q7: Someone asks Wakana if she has bought a new microwave (since she mentioned last time that it’s super old and barely working anymore): She didn’t. It’s still working somehow. However, she did buy a bunch of other stuff but more on that later. Q8: Anything they would want as birthday present? Wakana wants a cordless vacuum cleaner (as we know, she bought one for herself at the beginning of the new year) Q9: Recommended cooking method: Wakana talks in detail about a gluten free version of an Okinawa Champuru dish. Q10: Something they like about each other? Here they are supposed to describe a positive character trait about the each other. Then they each react to the other’s thoughts and confirm whether that’s an accurate description of their character. Yuuka describes Wakana as very bright and cheerful. Mainly because she has been talking a lot since the get-go. Wakana is afraid this particular trait of hers might come across as annoying but Yuuka really likes it. She admits tough that she did feel a little overwhelmed at first because she couldn’t explain how someone’s switch was just always turned on, no breaks, no downtime, nothing. Q11: Any recommended instruments for playing and tips how to stay motivated? Wakana tries to play a bit of piano but she hasn’t been very diligent with her practicing so she is really not the right person to provide any type of encouragement or support. Wakana recommends just listening to the sound of instruments and choose what you like best when deciding on what to start playing. Q12: How have they progressed in the past year? Wakana has made some improvements on her neck by doing lots of exercising and stretching. Q13: How to spend Christmas as an adult? Eat chicken and cake. Have some red wine. A good meal is more important to her than presents. Q14: What was the most surprising thing that happened this year? Wakana finally realised that the right combination of air-con and humidifier is the best way to stay warm in winter. In the past she refused to use air-con heating due to the dry air. Q15: How to memorise lyrics for a live? Endless repetition and trying to come up with a simple story that makes it easier to memorise everything. Q16: Ever experienced a time leap or deja vu? Not really. She is often reminded of other stuff or experiences nostalgia but nothing else. One weird thing though: Sometimes she will dream of people contacting her and then they actually end up contacting her soon after. Q17: Have they visited Ghibli Park? Any other such places they would like to visit? No, unfortunately Wakana hasn’t been able to visit yet. But she wants to, especially after seeing everyone’s reports. Q18: Any artist/work (anime, drama, show, etc) that influenced your life a lot? They go off on a tangent and talk about idols. Wakana mentions a group called “Travis Japan”. Seems like she used to be quite obsessed with them. They even were on America’s Got Talent. Q19: The thing you worked hardest on this year? Wakana worked hardest on her music. Basically what she always does. But she also tried to drink more water and focus on skincare. Q20: Recommended Christmas book? She shows a few books

Present Time: Wakana introduces items she bought for her birthday (seems like she likes to buy presents for herself XD). She got herself a cordless hair iron (Ya-Man Shine Pro) that can be used in the bath. And a lint remover by Kedamatori.

Cake Time:  So cute to hear her sing for herself. The fruit tart looks absolutely delicious!

Game Corner (personality test): God, there was a lot of complicated stuff XD

Live Goods Introduction: I honestly wanna buy everything. The keyholder looks so pretty! And the pink gloves are cuter than I expected. Might have to buy two pairs. I wonder what that big spoiler in the pamphlet is all about? Probably her album release?

MAINS

sherlock holmes, ruler (summoned-anima) ! a mostly polite gentleman who acts as the ruler of the second holy grail war she participates in. she does wonder at times if she has achieved her extra personal goal of becoming someone akin to james moriarty in his eyes yet. / "i think you would understand me best, mr. holmes. you and i are so alike in this world, after all… we simply act according to our nature."

sherlock holmes, caster (summoned-anima) ! to overturn alaya's limitations on fulfilling arthur's wish, instead of wishing for the power to do so, she requested for the knowledge to make it happen. so she summoned the beast of knowledge to serve her. / "mr. holmes, we're going to make both of our fairy tales come to life! see, even your own dashing prince has arrived just to see you~"

yan qing (tenkoseiensei) ! with her power, she needs neither dashing prince to save her from a high tower nor hero in shining armor. instead, who she wants is for someone to want her, too. nothing less than all of her. does it matter if loyalty turns to obsession? even then, she'd reward the shadows for how he twisted around her. oh, how she loves him! / "forever and ever, yan qing! even as the world burns and falls to ruin, our chapter shall never turn to its final page."

MAGECRAFT

sorcery trait ! none

element ! n/a

origin ! unbound (awakened since birth)

OTHER ABILITIES

unprecedented quality of magic circuits ! though the quantity of her magic circuits are low compared to the average magus, their abnormal composition more than makes up for it, giving her a talent for mastering every form of magecraft she has come across.

connection to the root of akasha ! something she was born with, granting her abilities beyond comprehension and several advantages in the event of a holy grail war. / with it, she can access the akashic records and even see the wish of a servant. but willing it into existence, overwriting causality and probability to make it come true, would be easily reversed by the world’s quantum time lock. she plans to use a beast-class servant as a boost of mana for her abilities, to overcome the limitation of her magic circuits.

prodigy ! omnipotence in the form of a girl. / in theory, she is capable of defeating regular servants, and able to manage at least two days of combat with more powerful servants like arthur before mortal limitations set in.

VERSES

fate/prototype ! default verse. master of the beast and the servants corrupted by the grail mud from the previous holy grail war.

fate/prototype: fragments of sky silver ! the youngest master of the first tokyo holy grail war, attending with her father. her prodigal talent in magecraft makes up for her age and lack of field experience.

fate/prototype au: belle of the ball of beasts ! something about her summoning a particular number of victorian gentlemen to her side strikes a familiar bell, doesn't it?

fate/grand order: beyond dreams of a slumbering princess ! fgo master verse, the default verse for this continuity. one of the masters stuck in cryostasis. due to a special ability, she has taken over the body of one of the staff members and is preparing to summon her own servant.

fate/grand order: a midsummer night's dream ! fgo servant verse. the pseudo-servant vessel of titania (alter), a ruler/caster servant embodying malicious fae of legends and folklore, similar to nursery rhyme and children's tales.

younger sibling au ! the youngest genius master of the first tokyo holy grail war, but no longer the primary sajyou heir, as that position now belongs to her older sister, ayaka. only time will tell if a difference in their age order would change anything significant between the siblings.
