Tag Game: Character Profile

Thanks to @floralmusings for the tag!

Rules: fill out the information for one of your OCs!

Today I´ll make a profile for Elafi, the main character of my story Chimeras.

Full Name: Elafi I haven't thought of a last name

Nickname: Deer Boy

Species: Human/Quimera Child

Age: 18

Gender: Male

Appearance: Elafi is a thin boy, about 1.70 meters tall (5'8 feet) without his antlers. He has deer ears, and his legs from the knee down are also like a deer's, ending in a pair of cloven hooves. He has big brown eyes with long eyelashes. His hair is brown, a little above his shoulders, slightly wavy. He has freckles on his face and back.

Occupation: Help Warrick in the garden.

Family: His parents were killed at the beginning of the story. He currently lives with Warrick, who has taken on a caretaker role for him. It is known that he has a grandmother, whom he hasn´t seen in a long time.

Pets: None, but would like to have a hedgehog.

Best Friend: These characters don't appear in the story yet, so I'll update when I publish that chapter ;)

Describe their room: Currently, his room at Warrick's house is pretty simple. His bed is filled with stuffed animals, and on his shelf he keeps several fantasy books and pictures of him and his parents. He always keeps his room very tidy.

Way of speaking: Elafi is quite shy, so he stutters when he speaks sometimes, usually when he´s nervous or scared. His voice is soft and melodic. When he wants, he can scream very loudly. His body language is very distinctive, and it´s easy to guess what he´s thinking or feeling just by looking at the position of his eyebrows or the movement of his ears.

Physical Characteristics (posture, gestures, attitude): He like to keep to himself. He´s very insecure due to his status as a chimera child, so he tries not to attract much attention, and can remain standing and static like a tree. When he feels confident, he´s very affectionate and enjoys giving and receiving hugs.

Items in their bag/purse: Elafi is not in the habit of carrying things around with him. With luck, he might have his cell phone in his pocket or some pretty stones he picked up from the ground.

Hobbies: Sleeping, going for a walk in the woods, reading, playing board games.

Favorite sport: He used to do yoga with his mom.

Abilities/talents/powers: He has a rather strong and mysterious connection with nature. The rest are spoilers!

Relationships (how they are with other people): With the people he loves, Elafi is very affectionate and protective. He has a very helpful and kind nature. Because he lived in isolation most of his life, he has a hard time interacting with other people because he is very shy and never knows what to talk to them about.

Fears: Elafi currently has two big fears: that someone will hunt him down and try to sell him on the black market, and that Warrick will be hurt.

Faults: Elafi is too naive, always looking for the good side of people, which can make him manipulable and easy to deceive. The boy is also too curious and is guided by his instincts and emotions, which sometimes makes him not too cautious with his actions.

Good points: Elafi has a very kind heart. If you gain his trust, he will do anything for you. He is a very easy kind of person to love, and his optimistic and bright outlook on life brings joy to anyone who is willing to listen to him.

What they want more than anything else: Elafi just wants to be able to live a life free from the dangers that society imposes on chimera children.

Character Profile Tag

Thank you to @willtheweaver for the tag!

I've seen a few of these and been tagged before I think, but this'll be my first one. To start it off, I'm doing Dusk from Frequency: Forsaken. (Copy/paste questions at bottom)

Full name: Dusk / Ralillith Tiro / Forsaken Fiend

Age: 19 (at the start of the story)

Gender: Male

Species: Human

Appearance: Dusk stands at 178 centimetres, his build is fairly thin, but he is still very fit and physically strong. His skin is a slightly pale sand colour and is covered with a few notable scars and no tattoos or other markings. He has a small vertical scar on the right side of his mouth and a thin horizontal scar around the middle of his neck. His eyes lack colour and are instead reflective like the surface of a mirror. His hair (at the start of story) reaches to the middle of his back, it's natural colour is black but there are streaks of pure, snow-white from his roots to his tips.

Occupation: None (start of story) / Face/head of the New Season.

Family: N/A

Best friend: Zenith Freydra

Pets: N/A

Describe their room: Since Dusk doesn't need to sleep, his room is very bare-bones. It generally only contains a desk, shelf, and a few training dummies. He also doesn't tend to stay in one place for very long, and although he does eventually get a permanent place of residence, that isn't for a while in the story.

Items in their bag/purse: Dusk doesn't need much, so he carries only useful supplies, such as navigational aids, means of note taking such as a journal, as well as carrying the others' supplies. He doesn't need to carry food, water, bedrolls, or anything relating to those items, so his pack is generally light.

Hobbies: Dusk tends to have a lot of free time when not exploring or travelling. He never gathered any hobbies throughout his childhood (since he didn't have much of a childhood). He does spend most of his free time reading, or training if he doesn't have proper access to reading material.

Favourite sport: Dusk, personally, has no real attachment to sports. His favourite would likely be whatever he is good at, so something in the realm of fencing, sword fighting, or boxing.

Abilities / talents / powers: Dusk, like most characters in my Frequency series, has a Frequency (tl;dr, superpower). His Frequency allows him to create objects out of light. Due to his connection to the runes (and a few other things), it isn't limited to that. For example, he can tell if someone's lying (i.e. a walking lie detector).

Some more mundane talents of his: Due to his past, and natural talent, he is extremely adaptable in combat. He hasn't been trained in every form of combat or weapon, but he is able to use whatever he can to the same effectiveness. He is also good at giving speeches.

Relationships: Dusk has two romantic/sexual relationship throughout Forsaken. Other than that, his allies/friends include:

Members of the New Season (Zenith, Dawn, Kyr, and Ino), Viridis, the Titan Family.

His enemies include:

Reven, Everden Family, Aurora Family, and the Daemons.

Fears: Forgetting, being forgotten, heights, jellyfish

Faults: Stubborn, self-doubtful, spiteful, believes himself to be the one to carry the heaviest of burdens

Good points: Resourceful, adaptable, loving/trusting of those close to him

What they want more than anything else: To be free of burden and prosecution. (I.e. to have no one pushing him around or wanting to kill him and knowing he can live his life in peace).

-----

This took a bit to fill out, but it was fun nonetheless! If you have any follow-up questions about Dusk, feel free to ask!

Character profile tag

Thanks for the tag @illarian-rambling

Name: Opal

Kind of being: Red fox (Vulpes vulpes)

Gender: female

Describe their appearance: Ever see one of those Mesolithic Venus figurines?That should give you a good idea as to Opal’s physique. After that, the most notable aspect of her appearance is her red eyes and white fur. Though about 50, age does not seem to have any effect, and there is a timeless look about her.

Occupation: Thá (Village chief)

Family members: Living family members include five children and thirteen grandchildren

Pets: various insects(seasonal)

Best friends: Those that were her closest friends are long dead.

Describe their room: As Opal spends most of her time in other places, her room is rather spare. Furniture is limited to a bed, a chest full of personal belongings, a table, and two chairs. All are well kept, and tidy. On the floor is a large rug, and against one wall is an ornate fireplace. While the furnishings are neat, there are books, stray pens, and discarded clothing scattered around.

Way of speaking: Old fashioned, with an air of refinement, but not stuck-up. As far as an accent, I guess it would be a mix of a refined Yooper and British-Canadian.

Physical characteristics: walks with a limp due to an old leg injury. Body language can range from contained to dramatic.

Items in their back pocket/purse: bones (for divination), pipe, hemp buds

Favorite sport: none

Powers: Divination

Relationships: Opal is on good terms with her family, with her granddaughter Playa being the one she is closest to. Outside of her family, she has a working relationship with the other four Thá. Unlike almost all the other foxes, she actually has good relations with some of the birds.

Fears: Failure, losing her family

Faults: Stubborn, willful, can be detached and distant at times

Good points: Compassionate, loyal, empathetic, willing to forgive, cares about others

What they want more than anything else: to live long enough to see Playa get somewhere in life

Tag Game: Gail Carson Levine’s Character Profile

Thanks to @paeliae-occasionally for the tag and @theeccentricraven for making the tag game!

Rules: Copy and paste the template, fill it out for one or more of your OC's, then post your OC's and the blank template for others to copy and paste.

I'll do this for Draven from The Hunter, the Myth and the Cure!

Name: Draven Cozenson

Nickname: Cozenson by colleagues, hunter by Octavian

Kind of being: Human

Age: Late 30's early 40's

Sex: Male

Appearance: A tall human man with black hair pulled back into a low messy ponytail, dark brown eyes, and a resting bitch face. He constantly has stubble on his chin because he never bothers to shave but he doesn't feel like maintaining a beard (but he'd pull it off). He wears a brown duster that has seen many years of use over a lighter waistcoat and blue shirt, both often unbuttoned as he can't be bothered. He has worn leather boots, holstered guns at his sides, and he has a thick scar above his eyebrow.

Occupation: Lycanthrope (werewolf) hunter

Family Members: Estranged but has two living parents

Pets: N/A

Best friend: Octavian de Silv

Describe his/her room: A chaotic disaster, but he has a system for most everything. A bookcase shelved in an order that makes sense to him, a desk covered in papers and abandoned coffee mugs, a messy bed that he half-heartedly tries to straighten every morning, a pile of torn clothes in the corner next to the box of sewing stuff that need to be mended.

Way of Speaking: Fairly deep, rough voice, incredibly sarcastic

Physical characteristics (posture, gestures, attitude): tends to lounge or manspread when sitting, pretty expressive with his hands, generally has a loud demeanor when relaxed and closed-off when on edge. Usually makes a wisecrack whether or not it's the right time to do so.

Items in his/her pockets or backpack or purse: His pistols, extra bullets, medical supplies, rations, water canteen, change of clothes, the small knives in his sleeves and boot, small notebook and pencil, tin for liquor.

Hobbies: Shooting, sparring, reading

Favorite sports: Competitive shooting, horse racing

Talents, abilities, or powers: Skilled at lycanthrope hunting, detective work, tracking and not getting infected.

Relationships (how he/she is with other people): His rougher personality tends to be off-putting to most, he holds disdain for the nobility and only really cares about the money they can give him. He does have a guilty conscience and rarely refuses to give help to someone in need.

Fears: Contracting lycanthropy

Faults: His main motivator is money and he is often rude to others. He has a bleak view on existence compared to most Valarians and is incredibly stubborn.

Good points: His gruff guise and hardened past hide a man who wants to do good but battles with the knowledge that good men rarely receive anything in return, and you can't buy food with thanks. He won't ever purposefully harm a child. He truly believes that hunting down lycanthropes makes the world safer as there is no known cure for the disease and a dead lycanthrope can't infect normal humans.

What he/she wants more than anything else: He wants to always be doing something exciting, never to be bored. Lycanthrope hunting has been the best way to do that and also earn his keep.

Share 5 particular habits your muse has!

Tagged by @lucidesunderstander (ㅅ´ ˘ `)

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ Due to traumatic past events, Noctis' first reaction to a threat is violence.

This can sometimes happen out of reflex. For instance, if one of the vampires made the dumb decision to scare her out of nowhere, she wouldn't scream, she would punch the threat without giving it a second thought and then think about what just happened. She warned them several times, but some won't listen and learn the hard way.

Azusa likes to take advantage of that... for obvious reasons.....

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ She has a resting face.

She looks really mean or upset from the distance but probably thinks about petting the bats in the mansion or something while smiling internally. It's surprisingly easy to get a reaction out of her though.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ Sometimes she allows herself to cause some mischief in the mansion.

She may hide Kanato's teddy in someone else's room, displace Ayato's takoyaki from its original spot, or connect Shuu's music device to her phone via Bluetooth to play some weird audio. These pranks help her get rid of all that stress from trying to survive every single day. It also serves as an act of revenge.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ Noctis started drinking more alcohol when she moved to the Sakamaki Mansion.

She's been in an intoxicated state several times in Ryoutei Academy, to the point Reiji started to check everyone's bags before they got into the limo. This was to prevent their reputation from getting soiled because of rumors surfacing around her drinking habits. She doesn't care if she gets expelled and still manages to smuggle a can or two sometimes. She hates living in this mansion and uses alcohol to get relief.

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ Noctis is very sharp.

She's able to tell when someone is putting up a facade or lying by the way they act or their tone of voice. This makes it difficult to trick her into doing things that will result in her blood getting sucked.

OC profile

Thanks @illarian-rambling here, and @willtheweaver here!

Rules: fill out the profile for an OC!

Maddie Morgan

Full name: Maddie Awinita Morgan

Age: 11 at the start of Part One

Gender: cis girl

Type of Being: Alii (alt dimensional human with powers)

Appearance: Maddie has long dark brown hair that goes past her waist. She usually wears it down but keeps it out of her face with a headband. She has honey-toned skin like her sister and bright blue eyes. She's small-framed and is about 4'7 at the start of the series. In Part One through most of Two, she has braces.

Way of speaking: I imagine Maddie with a higher pitched voice in a relatively monotonous but still light tone. She's very blunt and direct as well

Physical characteristics: Maddie is usually walking back and forth on her feet and her hands are constantly fidgeting with something, even her hair. Her eyes are also noticeably big.

Occupation: middle schooler

Family: Maddie has an older sister named Lexi and they live with their mom and dad.

Best friend: Kelsey Newman

Pets: I've decided Lexi has a bird but Maddie interacts with the bird for sure

Relationships: Generally speaking, Maddie doesn't hold onto her relationships nearly as much as Lexi does. Kelsey is the one person Maddie would truly consider a friend; everyone else is mainly an acquaintance until they achieve special status. She is close to Sam and Liam, though it takes a bit to call them friends. Maddie does have an ex-friend, Brycen, and she does miss him occasionally. Maddie is well-liked by her peers but she doesn't consider them close, and is usually confused when people want to befriend her.

Describe their room: Maddie has a lot of sci-fi posters around her room and a shelf for built Legos and another for the unopened boxes. It's rather messy and cramped as she squeezed her desk in the middle of the room.

Items in their bag/purse: some kind of fidget toy, her amigurumi tiger Wilfredo if she's told to put him up, handheld pencil sharpener, pens to fidget with and taking apart, folders for school with notebook paper, and a handheld gaming device

Hobbies: robotics, Legos, watching TV, taking things apart, gaming

Favourite sport: I feel like she likes watching soccer or American football

Abilities/talents/powers: well, there's her shapeshifting. She's also very scientifically minded and intelligent in creative ways. She's a good student despite restlessness, and she has a strong sense of humor to defuse situations.

Fears: lacking independence, failure, being restrained

Faults: sometimes her jokes are very poorly timed and she can be unintentionally insensitive; she lashes out physically when angered; not a good planner

Good points: sometimes those jokes land very well and can ease tension; she's highly intelligent and adaptive; she has a strong gut instinct and follows through with it

What they want more than anything else: more than anything, Maddie truly wants to have fun and be adventurous. She's metaphorically fearless and just wants to push the limits on what she can do. She thirsts for more experience and will not act in self-preservation if it gets in her way.

Character Profile Tag: Orrinir Relickim

Thanks for the tag @willtheweaver! Loved hearing about Sorrel, and I love the name especially!

So let's talk about Orrinir, love interest in 9 Years Yearning and main character of the upcoming second book, Pride Before a Fall.

My darling! A little guy. Just a little guy. You can tell how much I love him because he gets the longest writeup of everyone, even Cerie!

He's the one on the right, next to his tiny trash demon husband Uileac.

Okay .... not so little guy. But he's such a wonderful creature anyway.

You think he's just a big dumb jock, huh? You look at his face and think he's some smarmy shit, yeah? YOU'RE WRONG! Let's find out why.

Name: Orrinir Relickim

Age: 23 (at the time of Pride Before a Fall)

Gender: Male

Species: Human

Appearance

Orrinir is a large, muscular man with a rough, confident face. He is quite tall and broad, towering over his fellow infantrymen. His silver eyes and angular red hair give him a striking appearance, especially as he tends to fuss over his hair and slick it with pomade into an unnatural swoop.

While he is naturally strong, Orrinir, like other soldiers, takes great pride in his power. The constant drills and, of course, engagements at the Rimuk Pass have given him chiseled muscles, though he's not really one to show them off.

Occupation

Infantryman in the Bremish Army. As of Pride Before a Fall, he is still a private, but he has grand dreams of becoming an Infantry General.

Family

His family abandoned him at the War Academy when he was a child, enrolling him as a Future Boy - a boy not old enough to start classes, who is forced to perform manual labor until he can begin his training.

Pets

Being a soldier, Orrinir doesn't have any real "pets." He'd have to leave them at home when he heads off into the field, and given that his husband Uileac is also a soldier, there'd be no one to tend to the animal. However, he does have his horse Bannain, the true star of the second book. He and Bannain have an ... antagonistic relationship, one could say.

Best friend

Other than Cerie, his sister-in-law, Orrinir's best friend is Sagremor, a fellow soldier. They trained at the War Academy together and have remained close all this time, though Sagremor has an annoying habit of psychoanalyzing everyone around him just for fun.

Describe his room

Orrinir's room, which he shares with Uileac, is neat and orderly, as one would expect from two soldiers. Much has been done to make it comfortable. The bed is on a raised platform - convenient for the frequent spring rains that can flood even the most solid home. A dresser, blanket chest, two nightstands, and a fireplace make up the rest of the furnishings, but the walls are hung with beautiful tapestries, most given to them as gifts for their wedding.

Items in his bag

When Orrinir heads off to an engagement, he packs his rucksack with both practical items and some sentimental objects, meant to remind him of what he fights for.

Socks

Extra gloves

Sewing kit for his uniform

Polishing cloth for his sword

Flint and steel for fire starting

Dry bread (hardtack) meant to be dipped in wine or water as an emergency meal

Oil-infused beeswax (useful as both a hand salve and chapstick)

Cloths for bandages/tourniquette

Thumb piano (kalimba) to pass the time

One of Uileac's shirts; he sleeps with it over his eyes to block out light and feel closer to his husband

Hobbies

Orrinir absolutely loves cooking and baking. While Cerie is a High Poet and Uileac occasionally composes poems, he doesn't have a knack for it; he'd be far too shy to even try, funnily enough. However, he likes to read poetry, especially the poems of Saint Luridalr, Breme's founding saint. Something about her lines has always spoken to him, or maybe it's just his patriotism.

Favorite sport

Swordfighting, of course! He and his friends like to blow off steam by beating the shit out of each other with wooden swords at the local infantryman-exclusive pub, the Swordsman Society.

Talents

Other than the aforementioned baking, killing people, and playing the kalimba, Orrinir's best talent is probably his knack for saying the wrong thing all the time. Not even out of malice! He's just not good at expressing himself.

Relationships

Uileac Korviridi: His husband, his beloved. They met at the War Academy as children and spent many, many years pretending they weren't obsessed with each other. Some me, and my beta readers, and literally every other character have claimed he is codependent, but he's been with Uileac for so long; they share an occupation, and he and Cerie are really all that Orrinir has. How would he not be codependent? Cerie Korviridi: His sister-in-law. Having basically grown up together, he sees Cerie more as his own little sister than just his husband's sibling. The three of them live together at their home in Goldnin, and he loves to boss her around as she petulantly argues. Despite their squabbles, he adores her and would do anything for her. Cerie's got both the boys wrapped around her little finger. Sagremor: Orrinir's best mate in the infantry. Sagremor has a knack for figuring out other peoples' problems and calling them out on their bullshit, something Orrinir both resents and appreciates. Tshumanu: Uileac's best mate, and therefore Orrinir's friend by association. Orrinir doesn't particularly really like Tshumanu much because he's so irresponsible and irreverent, but he puts up with him because otherwise Uileac will be mad at him. Sergeant Paltrik: His former instructor at the War Academy. Sergeant Paltrik always gave both Uileac and Orrinir special treatment because he could see the potential in them; that's why he never got them in too much trouble for cheating on tests or sneaking off campus. Now that Orrinir's all grown up, he sees Sergeant Paltrik as something of a mentor and father figure. Erix: Uileac's palomino mare. Of course he loves her: Erix is an extension of his husband. And Erix is a very good girl. Bannain: His horse, purchased for him by Uileac as a wedding present. They have a complicated relationship. On one hand, Bannain is a reflection of how much Uileac loves him; on the other hand, Bannain is an insufferable little shit who always gets into trouble. So there's some weird vibes there. The Relickim Family: Note how his birth family comes dead last. He has no relationship with any of his relatives, essentially, since they gave him up to the War Academy; he didn't even invite them to his graduation or wedding. Orrinir was the second-youngest of six siblings, though only three (other than him) are still living.

Fears

Oh man, does Orrinir have a lot of fears, even if he pretends he's a big tough strong dude who never gets scared. His top 10:

Uileac dying or being horribly maimed in battle

Cerie dying or one of her High Poems misfiring and horribly maiming her (why does he love people with such dangerous occupations?? don't answer that)

Being killed in battle and not being able to say goodbye to his loved ones

Being injured in battle and becoming a burden

Something happening to one of their horses (even Bannain I guess)

Having to resign from the infantry

Goldnin, his hometown, being invaded by the Sinans

Breme being completely destroyed

His family coming back to pester him

Thunderstorms

I mean, they're all pretty reasonable fears (including the thunderstorm one, surprisingly enough), but still.

Faults

Orrinir has none! He's a cinnamon roll! Perfect!

... Okay, fine. His faults.

Codependent. He doesn't see himself as a separate person from his husband. I mean, can you blame him? Bro was given up by his family. Anxious attachment style. He follows the people he loves around like a big overgrown puppy and doesn't know what to do with himself when they're not there. Bad-tempered. Once you rile him up, years of resentment explodes out of him and he doesn't know when to stop. Anal-retentive. Everything must be perfect so he feels safe and happy. He'll spend hours cleaning his boots because if they're not sparkling, he's nervous of getting in trouble. A useful skill for being a soldier, though. Emotionally immature. He doesn't have a strong ability to self-regulate, given that he was abandoned by his family as a child and wasn't taught how to self-soothe. Avoidant. At the same time, he can't really explain to you what he's feeling or handle deep, emotional conversations. Good for him that Uileac is equally terrible at talking about hard stuff, so they can just avoid all unpleasant conversations! .... Wait I don't think that's a good thing.

Good points

Of course Orrinir has so many good points so we can just pretend all those flaws don't exist, right? Right??

Nurturing. Orrinir is so fascinating because though he has grown into his role as a soldier and excels at it, it's obviously antithetical to his genuine personality. He wants to take care of those he loves, whether that's spoiling them with presents or tending to them when they are sick. Loyal. Like his husband and sister-in-law, Orrinir is loyal to a fault. If you are part of his "pack," he will go to the ends of the earth for you, no matter what. After the seventh book of The Eirenic Verses, we get to see this in all its heartbreaking, bittersweet glory. That's a secret tool for later, though. Resilient. You don't go through what he has without getting a damn backbone. Things are terrible and the world's on fire, but he drills down into himself and keeps going, mostly because he wants to protect those he loves. Scrupulous. Orrinir is detailed-oriented and very invested in getting the job done right, every time. When you give him a task, you can be assured it will be executed with ruthless efficiency. Send him down to the armory and tell him to clean the 300-year-old pike? Better check the engraving on the handle, because what you get back will be unrecognizably spotless. Thoughtful. A gift from Orrinir will be exactly what you wanted and more. Before he and Uileac got together, he literally fake-dated a girl to get access to the girl's father so he could demand a custom-designed bow for Uileac at a steep discount. And then broke up with the girl. Hey, he was a teenager, and teenagers can be little shits.

What he wants more than anything else

Orrinir wants peace. To be able to wake up and drink tea with his husband without worrying that they're going to be sent off at a moment's notice to the Rimuk Pass, where they'll be forced into battle again. To not have to leave Cerie behind, worrying about them, when they are called up.

To build a life together with the people he loves and find a new purpose in something less destructive.

Maybe he'd open a bakery. Maybe he'd become a farmer. Maybe he'd be a Council Guard. The possibilities are endless and sweet.

At the same time, he knows that a ceasefire would mean he'd have to find a new way forward, without relying on warfare to bring him purpose.

The endless war between Breme and Sina is what motivates him, but it also brings him so much suffering.

Last Line Tag

I was tagged by @oh-no-another-idea and you can see her post here.

I actually just wrote something for a character profile on Toyhouse!

Because after six alphas, Harper knew that they all had their rules. And it was best to learn them and fall in line as fast as possible. Before they got the chance to start punishing him.

A line from Harper's profile. I'm very slow at getting those things up and up to date.

So to give me things to read while I procrastinate doing work, no pressure tagging - @mrbexwrites, @author-a-holmes, @squarebracket-trick, @rachaellawrites, @blind-the-winds, @sharkielord(I'm gonna encourage you to write my friend) and anyone else that needs an excuse to procrastinate jump in on tag games.

Character Profile Tag

Thanks to @finickyfelix for the open tag :) (this took a while, but I really wanted to do another one of these when I saw your post.)

For this one, I'm going to do my second favourite character, Jesse Graves from my WIP 534ft.

-----

Full name: Jesse Graves

Age: 19

Gender: Transgender Male

Type of Being: Human

Appearance: Jesse stands at 165cm (or 5'5") and has a generally small frame that he covers up with layers of loose cloth draped over him.

His face is soft, though it shows restlessness. He has subtle bags under his brown coloured eyes. His hair, a similar shade of brown as his eyes, is short and unkempt, hidden by his hat. And he has a light, mostly unkempt, beard over most of his chin.

He wears a cowboy hat to cover his eyes from the suns, basic leather and cloth travelling clothes, layers of cloth draped over his shoulders to mask his frame, plain leather boots, fingerless marksmen gloves, a backpack, and a holstered silver revolver on the right side of his hip.

Way of speaking: Jesse speaks slowly, seriously, and with thought behind every word he uses. He goes as deep as his voice allows and shows as little emotion as possible. His natural voice/cadence is something he very rarely shows to other people unless he feels safe around them.

Physical characteristics: Jesse's body language is purposefully reserved, presenting himself as someone serious and not to be messed with. In truth, he just doesn't want to be bothered.

What he cannot hide, however, is his gloomy disposition. He is filled with guilt and regret, and this is evident in how he walks, talks, and acts. No matter how reserved his actions and words are, this part of him still seeps through.

He also doesn't show nervousness, fear, or other strong emotions. He bottles it up and stuffs it down under this mask of unflinching seriousness. When alone, these bottled emotions burst forth in fits of anger, crying, and self-loathing.

Occupation: N/A

Family: Jesse has no surviving family.

Best friend: At the beginning of the story, Jesse is more or less alone. However, during the story he becomes friends with a changeling woman named Claire. The two of them eventually become best friends who would die for each other if needed.

Pets: His horse, Biscuit. Though, he doesn't consider her a pet, but rather a companion.

Relationships: Jesse, mostly due to fear and past trauma, struggles to make lasting relationships. As a result, he only ever has three throughout the story. The rest evaporate as soon as he and them stop interacting.

Claire: Best friends, struggle through similar issues and lift each other up because of it.

Nolan: Is wary of him because of his use of alchemy and infusions of magic, but is on generally friendly terms.

Death: Due to his past, Jesse has a close relationship to Death. He is one of the few who can see Death, outside of their dying moments. Death took pity on Jesse and the two of them have a somewhat friendly relationship. Death wants to see Jesse forgive himself, only helping him because of a "debt".

Describe their room: Jesse never tends to stay in one place longer than a few nights. When he does need to stay in a place overnight, he keeps all of his stuff together directly next to where he sleeps.

Items in their bag/purse: Jesse carries the same few items on him at all times.

A stack of bounties who have the faces of people he's looking for (those connected to his past)

A small bit of mire (name of currency)

Preserved food and water for biscuit (and sometimes himself)

A notebook with the names of everyone he has killed/buried (accidentally or otherwise)

Spare revolver parts, ammunition, and cleaning/polishing supplies

And a fire starter

Hobbies: Tending to Biscuit, carving, polishing his revolver.

Favourite sport: Jesse doesn't really have a favourite sport, but if he did it would be horse-racing, as a racer.

Abilities/talents/powers: Jesse, innately, has no special qualities about him. However, he was given a boon from Death.

This boon grants him endless vitality, or stamina, and prevents him from dying from a few common deaths. This includes dehydration, starvation, exhaustion, heat stroke, and blood loss depending on where the wound is.

He also has the ability to give this boon to someone, at the cost of taking on their vitality instead. He typically does this exclusively with his horse Biscuit so she can ride at full speed near-endlessly.

Fears: Forming relationships, getting close to people, magic, people recognising him (from his past).

Faults: Thinks little of himself, guilt stricken, unsure of himself and his identity, has trouble expressing himself.

Good points: Strong-willed, dead-set determination, friendly.

What they want more than anything else: To be forgiven for his sins.

That's Jesse for ya! He's my favourite trans cowboy... by default since he's the only one I have. But he is my seconds favourite character I've ever made so...
