    Vyxsis
  • Character Name: Eaku

    THE ESSENTIALS
    Race: Yeleni, previously Tsol’aa
    Gender: Male
    Guild/House: Sentinels
    City: Duiran
    Order: Haern

    THE LOOK
    Hair: Dark red
    Eyes: Crimson
    Height: Somewhere over six foot
    Build: Willowy, athletic
    Defining Features: Short horns, sharp shark-like teeth, bestial ears
    Clothing: White, black, red and silver colors; tends to wear armor constantly. Braids flowers into his hair.
    Tattoos: N/A
    Piercings: Earlobes
    Scars: One scar dividing the right eyebrow and passing just outside his eye, three scars on the side of his neck from that one time he wandered into a badger den as a kid.

    PERSONALITY
    Strengths: Loyal and forgiving; patient and takes things in stride.
    Weaknesses: Scared of both commitment and responsibility, perhaps for the same reason. Holds himself to higher, more unreasonable standards than others.
    Attitude: Ultimately good-natured, but often flippant to the point of irreverence.
    Morals: Mercy and compassion are important. Some crimes, however, are beyond redemption; and sometimes sickness must be rooted out.
    Pet Peeves: Lying to him, poorly.
    Best way to piss him off: Betrayal of his trust, implicit or otherwise.
    Best way to get on his good side: Just be reasonably friendly. Not being Undead is a major plus.

    FAVORITES
    Color: Silver
    Location(s): Lady Lleis’s Temple
    God/Goddess: Haern
    Guild Master/House Head (all time): Good question.
    Artifact (don't have to own): spirit_anchor
    Commodity: Iron
    Animal: Sarthoks and badgers, but just about every other animal in close second.
    Item owned: He’s proud of his armor, for the moment.
    Village/forest/region: The Seer’s Wood is many very nice shades of color.
    Memory: That time a finch settled into his hair and ate a blueberry.
    Song: The Rhythm.
    Flower: Silvery bluets or cherry/plum blossoms.
    Drink: Pink raspberry lemonade (RIP Haern’s private stock).

    MINDSET
    Goals: Be a contributing member of society without doing so enough that others come to rely on it. Also, become good at fighting.
    Ambitions: To live a relatively quiet life of doing whatever he wants, and doing it well.
    Nemesis/Rival: No one, really.
    Best Friends: Honestly? Probably his minipets. They’re good animals.
    Idol: What he’s heard of Lady Lleis.
    Best Personal Achievement: There’s nothing he’s satisfied with enough to call it an achievement.
    Worst Personal Achievement: Becoming an Elder in the Sentinels. It was literally just an error with squishing down the number of ranks while he was hibernating, so it’s not really an achievement.
    Proudest Moment: Probably the time where he got a finch sitting on his head to eat a blueberry, or when Haern brought him into the Order.
    Most Shameful Moment: More of a constant thing than a moment, but his continued ignorance towards many aspects of Tsol’aa culture despite an effort to learn more about it.
    Secret Dream: Dismantle the Dreikathi military, find out if any who ordered the bombardment of the Aalen are still alive, and if so, execute them.
    If He Could Make One Wish: Just take the Undead and put them somewhere else. A world where their existence isn’t a blight on nature, preferably. This would solve many problems.

    Idol: Huwald Seluno and Lobyl the Ankyrean commander.

    Attitude: Having and following her ideals is extremely important, but is still occasionally willing to push them aside in favor of "the ends justify the means."
    Morals: The Blood, Earth, and Shadow (mostly in that order) are the greatest sources of power in the world. Their sources need to be protected and defended at all costs.
    Pet Peeves: People touching her without permission.

    Ambitions: Have undead factions rule the world and mortals serve them as slaves/food. Kill or severely weaken most spirit/Albedi gods too.
    Nemesis: Probably the Carnifex at the moment. She's not a big fan of Abhorash right now either.
    Rival: Other House leaders
    Best Friend: Ezalor once. Erzsebet is starting to grow on her now.
    Idol: She's mad at Abhorash, but still respects (most of) the things he accomplished.

    Proudest moment: The night Abhorash told her to purge El'jazira of all mortals, and then resired her.
    Most shameful moment: Letting herself get blackmailed.

    Do any of you ever wonder if, by breaking down your character, you eliminate spontaneous RP for people to get to know your character and instead metagame that knowledge?


  • AishiaAishia Queen Bee
    As far as I'm concerned I'm so famous people NOT knowing this stuff is offensive.
    MoxieAloliMjollDrystin
  • ZailaZaila Pacific Time
    @rhyot I've definitely had people metagame knowledge like that; but I figure that if someone's gonna metagame from information they got on the forum, they're not someone I probably want to RP with in any real depth anyway: so very little is lost for me by not teaching them IC. This is also why I make sure to [redacted] anything that would be potentially problematic for metagamey-types to know.

    edited February 2020
    Wow heck yes, a way to indulge my self-obsession and achieve the same validation as a buzzfeed quiz? SIGN ME UP. Redacted some stuff basically to avoid metagaming and revealing stuff that's not readily obvious to a new observer.

    Character Name: Tetchta Mesis

    THE ESSENTIALS

    Race: Idreth Imp
    Gender: Female and Male
    Guild/House: Carnifex
    City: Bloodloch
    Order: Tanixalthas/Atheist

    THE LOOK

    Hair: Black, silky, short(ish) undercut. Wild.
    Eyes: Very light blue, veering on grey.
    Height: Stupendously short.
    Build: Absurdly, almost comically strong for her size. The strength of a cave troll in the packag of a toddler.

    Clothing: Black all the time, black black, smol tiddied goth gf/bf
    Tattoos: none
    Piercings: Nosering, earrings
    Scars: None

    PERSONALITY

    Strengths: Intelligent, nearly-genius-levels of intellect. Confident. Determined. Radically honest. An idea-generator. Mischievous.
    Weaknesses: A weak combatant, so can’t always back up their boasting, a TERRIBLE politician. A bad leader. Ideas may be impractical/unpopular. Occasionally up their own butt. A bit smug. Sometimes mischief gets them into severe trouble.
    Attitude: Before leaving the Dominion was the prototypical smug vampire who thinks they’re an expert puppet master and superior to others. After deciding to leave has become much more grounded, but still has a vicious streak and her own self-seriousness can conflict with his new impulse to have fun.
    Morals: Everything is a hierarchy, but must be defended through action and merit. It’s a quantitative outlook, not a qualitative. And even then the hierarchy isn’t linear so much as circular to them.
    Pet Peeves: People assuming that their culture is universal.

    I tried to get him to come back but fat chance on that one!
  • LinLin Blackbird The Moonglade
    Alright, I was gonna hold off on doing this until some pretty juicy secrets came out into the open. Now that the juice is loose, here I go!

    Character Name: Lin dur Naya / Lin al-Akir

    THE ESSENTIALS

    Race: Idreth (Human, of El'jaziran descent).
    Gender: Identifies as female; body varies. She believes physical sex is an insipid concept for an Idreth, but isn't skilled enough to form her body accordingly.
    Guild/House: Sentaari.
    City: Duiran Council.
    Order: Chakrasul.

    THE LOOK

    Hair: Long, grand, and black. Shaved sides. Gathered into braids, massed most thickly atop her head, the rest hanging from the base of her skull.
    Eyes: The right eye is pale gold. The left is completely glossy and black, like a jewel.
    Height: Roughly 6' 6" (~200 cm). I just go with "pretty tall."
    Build: Muscular, chiseled. Thick as hell. Absolutely impossible fantasy Amazonian physique.
    Defining Features: Ram's horns encased in twisted, jagged mythril. The eyes. The tail.
    Clothing: Dresses a bit like Berserk's Guts from the early Black Swordsman arc. Black hunting leathers, sturdy boots. A big-ass green cloak she got from Baelak Shipbreaker. A really big darkbow. And the mask.
    Tattoos: Not really a tattoo, but a circular mark burnt into her forehead. It occasionally produces smoke in the presence of Gods, during certain circumstances.
    Piercings: Pretty much everywhere, and they change frequently. Yes, even there.
    Scars: All over the place - too many to really count or remark upon.

    PERSONALITY

    Strengths: Doggedly tenacious. Cuts through Gordian Knots of bullshit and proves capable of seeing past deceptions. Definitely not squeamish. Very, very physically strong.
    Weaknesses: As one of Lin's central themes is coping with weaknesses, traumas, and flaws, it's a list too long to write here. The ones that stand out most are an incredible susceptibility to escapism, or appeals to comfort/familiarity; a bizarre relationship with fear that manifests unpredictably.
    Attitude: Irredeemably bitter. Forbidding. Unfriendly. Completely unable to mask her contempt. Yet you can worm your way in there and see the softie inside. She really likes stories.
    Morals: Pretty restricted - they can be boiled down to simple things like "slavery is bad" and "don't do genocide."
    Pet Peeves: Being touched without permission. Being spoken to like a child. Young people giving her unsolicited life lessons about things she has been through again and again. Cutesy, cheery people.

    Best way to piss her off: Talk to her for more than five minutes.
    Best way to get on her good side: Offer her food; cajole her with a story; be dead sexy.

    FAVORITES

    Color: Red.
    Class: Monk.
    Class Skill: Evade.
    General Skill: Deathsight.
    Location: Grotesque Shrine in Ithmia Forest.
    God/Goddess: Damariel. She secretly wishes she could have stayed, and been tempered by Him.
    Guild Master/House Head (all time): Herself.
    Tattoo: Bell.
    Artifact: Gem of transmutation.
    Commodity: Coal.
    Animal: Rojalli.
    Item owned: Her old mask - before it was remade by Chakrasul. The new one is powerful, but does not impart the same meaning.
    Village/Forest/Region: The Mhojave Desert.
    NPC: None comes to mind.
    Memory: Hiding in Aisling's bedchambers during an especially vicious thunderstorm.
    Song: A collection of El'jaziran ragas, as played on sitar.
    Drink: Kawhe.

    MINDSET

    Goals: To descend to the bottom of Chakrasul's Spiral - she can't think of any other way to fix herself.
    Ambitions: Her own take on Corruption, taking the doctrines of Fear, Avarice, etc. and twisting them into the purest personal strength - in essence, conquering her many traumas.
    Nemesis: None.
    Rival: Iesid Mulariad.
    Best Friend: Verse, her rojalli.
    Idol: None.
    Best personal achievement: Raising her son, Mahar, innocent, pure, and entirely in Dendara.
    Worst personal achievement: Accepting the curse of the Blood, and subsequently letting herself go into prolonged states of blood starvation.
    Proudest moment: Facing off against Bamathis and his Legion, alone.
    Most shameful moment: Being found out as a worshipper of Chakrasul.
    Secret dream: This question sucks. It's a secret!
    If she could make one wish...: She'd be dead.
