Code for two characters:
Contact:ireth Info: I knit. A LOT. My plurk half knitting and half talking about rp. I love and adore horror, zombies more than anything. The story telling device that a good author can make them and how the 'real enemy was the humans we met along the way' trope. Have you ever watched a movie, or read a book, and the ending is mostly sad and depressing but it's still open-ended enough to leave room for more? And asked yourself - this is the WORST possible ending, MAKE A CHOICE! No one likes this! Well, I'm the person who loves those kinds of endings!
Canon: Shadow and Bone
note on name In-game, he will call himself Kirigan. He had faked his own death so many times by now, it's a wonder he even remember his real one.
Age: 500+, honestly he has no idea and lost count a long time ago

Info: Wiki Tzarist Russia with a fantasy spin. He is the protagonist. An ancient Shadow Summoner who wants to take over the power in Ravka (Russia) and bring safety and peace to his people. He has magic (called Small Science) and he wants to protect all the other magical people in the world - while ruling everyone. 400 years ago he created a Shadow Fold, and made the volcra (monsters) that live in it, from soldiers and innocent bystanders. Trying to go in to the Fold, will bring these volcra out and they murder / eat everyone they can get their claws on. Since then, he's tried to gain more power, and to find a Sun Summoner. His balance. When he finds her, shenanigans and murder happens and he enslaves her by forcing an amplifying collar around her neck. The Sun Summoner does not take this well, and rebels- casting off his control of her powers and throws him in to the Fold where he believes he was devoured by his own creations.
Soulmate(s): There is no belief in souls in his world, and he doesn't believe in emotions. So, no.
Shadow: Since the Darkling's main fear is being left alone / being forever alone, his shadow will prey on this feeling. The soul-crushing abandonment issues that he has and his own reluctance to seem 'weak'. Being weak is being ruled by emotions of any kind and might manifest by lashing out, grand displays of emotions in public and a general feeling of being totally and utterly alone.
Plotting: This is not at all helpful, but I want it all! Friends (ha!) and enemies are all very welcome! He's superficially nice to most people at first, but will try to use any and all people who might trust in him even a little bit.

Contact:denouements, pm, contact for discord!
Info: hi everyone! I'm aki, a 30-something non-binary Australian based in South Korea (so UTC+9). I work full time as well as holding a voluntary position at an online school, so I'm quite a busy person! between these two things, I'm very backtag friendly— I pretty much rely on it, if we're being honest. I have a lot of hobbies, ranging from video games to music, and if you add me on plurk (which you are welcome to do!) you'll find that due to my adhd I tend to pick up new things every now and then, like that one summer I got real into cross-stitching. I am a practicing witch with a penchant for tarot, astrology and a few other things, and the proud parent of two ginger cats who make me want to pull my hair out on a good day. It's a pleasure to meet everyone!

Info: here! The information is relevant from the beginning up through the end of Remake.
Soulmate(s): not only will Aerith look for soulmates, but she'll likely be the person checking in on those who don't and trying to make them get a soulmate or two, even if she has to stand in, so that they at least have someone. she is definitely going to need people who are there for her too, of course, although she'll deny that!
Shadow: Aerith's shadow will by nature be selfish and stubborn both, a potentially messy combination under any circumstance. But it will also really play on her fear of loneliness, trying to make her feel like she's alone and has no one, or that her friends are better off without her. It will inspire her to try to cling selfishly to the bonds she's made, as well as feelings of being unwanted, or a nuisance.
Plotting:
❀ Like others have said before me: at the moment, really anything goes!
❀ Looking for people that are okay with her bullying them to change their network name to something based on flowers or the environment in general.
❀ She'll probably want a bodyguard. Not because she can't hold her own, but because she's sensible and knows she's not the strongest person in the world.
❀ It's probably no surprise to anyone who knows her that Aerith will make her home in Serene. So neighbors of course would be nice.
❀ Friends in general are also more than welcome. Let her talk your ears off about the flowers she finds in Stygia!
❀ She's definitely more the positive CR type than negative CR, but I'm always down for the latter if we can find a way to make it work organically!
❀ In the long run, I'd like her to face and acknowledge her fears— of course I think that's the goal for many of us!— so people who can be real with her are great too.
❀ Anything. Really. Anything. Just contact me!
