I, also, do not participate in call out culture. I will not rp with: Incest, noncon of any type, p*dophilia, mpreg. Blogs rping real people (exception is fictionalized versions of historical figures). White-washed characters. Drew Starkey fcs. (Drew is not problematic, but I went to college with him.) A/B/O or other wolf kinks. 002 I am anti-JKR, Sapkowski, and Smeyers, HOWEVER, my blog will feature their works. I'm autistic and have special interests. If this is uncomfortable for you, no pressure to follow / follow back. I want your dash to be a safe space for you. This is a hobby, not a jobby.
003 This blog is mutuals only and semi-private. I will check every blog that follows me, but I will only follow if I think we can vibe and I can see writing with you. I am also multiverse / multiship. OCs are great! Just please have a bio and rules page! I never do exclusives and mains just means I've developed a lot with the person. Feel free to hard block if you don’t want me following you. 004 I do not have to answer every meme I get. Specify muse for all memes, please. I don't interact with OC family members unless I know the rper well. I tend to stick between 1-3 paragraphs, but I try to match length. I have some mental struggles, though, so sometimes threads over 3 paras can pose problems for me. My main thing about length is quality over quantity. Give me something I can respond to. I use small font and can do icons or not. I never reply on mobile. I'll cut if you don't. I'm using XKit Rewritten.
005 Chemistry above all else! That is the most important. I LOVE ships, though. Love 'em. Unrequited love may feature on this blog! Never mistake that for force-shipping, absolutely turn my muses down if you want. 006 I have no triggers besides spiders. I am very arachnophobic. As in, even the word causes a physical reaction.

Gwen Vanonet
Gwen was born to a close-knit family in Blowing Rock, North Carolina. Though her extended family was all close by, her own home held herself, her father, her mother, and her grandmother from her father's side. The Green flowed through her paternal family, even if her father didn't show it, himself. Instead, her grandmother, Aggie, took Gwen under wing. She was raised in the traditions of Granny Witchcraft.Rarely did Gwen's family ever make it to Boone, and even more rarely towards Asheville, only on special occasions to buy specific things or sell wares. It was on one of these trips that her father and mother were killed. This left Gwen in her grandmother's care full time.Aggie raised Gwen as a healer and midwife. She was warned of the dangers the Things out in the world possessed and taught on how to spot and handle such things. Gwen took to the work like a fish to water. She had a natural aptitude for herbs and wards. Though they still kept to themselves, Gwen and her grandmother gained a positive reputation in the community.
Modern Verse This verse closely mimics her main verse. She grows up in Blowing Rock, NC with her family. Her parents are killed in a wreck. She grows up taught by her grandmother and attending a quiet public school. Still often keeping to herself, she travels a little more frequently if she feels she's needed somewhere. She also visits both Boone and Asheville more often. This can be adapted for Teen Wolf, Stranger Things, and other more modern Earth-based fandoms.

RED DEAD REDEMPTION 2 AU.
Gwendolyn Vanonet was born to a backwoods healer and a scarred hunter in the forests of Lemoyne. The family was a tight knit one, her grandmother living with them and extended family living in the nearby areas. Her father, Conor, kept away from people due to facial disfigurement from a wolf attack before Gwen's birth. They lived a superstitious life, reclusive, their only interactions with others being when people would come for witchy remedies or the family would travel into town for things. Her parents ended up dying in an attack by the Raiders when Gwen was young and her grandmother, Aggie, took over care of her. She was raised in the ways of granny witchery and herbal healing. Eventually, Gwen set up in a home of her own, forested with a garden. WITCHER AU.
Gwen's grandmother and father came from Caed Dhu when the druids were forced from it. They moved north while others took to the south, to Toussaint. North into Temeria, settling near the border with Aedirn. It was there that Conor Vanonet met Lottie Mac Tir and Gwen was born. As the Eternal Fire took hold in the lands, Gwen's parents were killed in the conflict. She escaped with her grandmother, Aggie, and took to an area not far outside Dol Blathanna, settling on the Kaedwen side. Once old enough, Gwen set out on her own, forming a home within Kaedwen as a village witch until, once more, things began to feel less friendly. HARRY POTTER AU.
Gwen was always expected to attend Ilvermorny, though no one in her family particularly liked the school. In their view, home-teaching was the way to go, whether magical or not. And then there were the Things. Things that haunted them, that followed. Things unleashed from the mountain hollers, angry and hunting. Upon beginning school at Ilvermorny, these Things found Gwen. They haunted her. The school, hoping to get such beings away from themselves and Gwen, sent the young witch off to Hogwarts. There, they seemed to find her still. After all, the Appalachians reached into Ireland, as well. WORLD OF WARCRAFT AU.

Adrian of Dorian
Adrian was taken from his home in Dorian as a child, as so many destined to be witchers were— but he wasn’t taken to a school. He and a few others were to be a new, experimental, batch of witchers. The formula had been partially uncovered, though it wasn’t perfect and relied on monster mutagens to stabilize it. Different combinations of these mutagens were tried on each boy. As far as Adrian knows, he was the only one to survive the process.He had been infused with Drowner and Graveir mutagens, allowing him a few traits of these monsters. From the Drowners, he became able to hold his breath for longer periods of time without potion, he also became more agile underwater. From Graveir, he gained a tougher skin, able to take a bit more abuse than most true witchers, and the ability to eat just about anything, rotting meat and bones included.Those performing the experiments met a tragic end, though it is anyone’s guess whether a monster or one of their experiments killed them. Adrian, though, decided to do what he’d been created for, and set off on the Path.Adrian is a knock-off Witcher using Trial of the Grasses and monster mutagens. He has created his own school, the School of the Stag. Luckily for him, most people are ignorant enough about witchers as a whole to swallow the lies he feeds them for his own sake.

VERSES
DRAGON AGE AU.
Adrian's past is something few ever learn. A product of magical experimentation from a young age, the boy suffered necromancy and blood magic since his young childhood as a slave in Tevinter. It was believed that the finer qualities of a Qunari warrior could be placed into a more acceptable host. Adrian is the only known candidate of these experiments to survive them. He has the strength and durability of Qunari while maintaining some features associated with the undead, like his ability to consume most anything, if necessary. Due to his upbringing, he's not fond of mages, but warily accepts them.
He can be encountered and recruited for the Inquisition or Veilguard as a companion. BALDUR'S GATE 3 AU.
Adrian doesn't know his past. He does know that he's a necromancer's experiment, however. He knows that he was taken from somewhere as a child, that he was altered. He knows he is now something in-between. Mostly living, yes, but with a ghoulish element to him. And that term is literal, he carries many of the traits of an actual ghoul.
He can be found in Act 2, in the Shadow-Cursed lands, and recruited. He's a barbarian berserker. Not tadpoled.
Marie-Jeanne Valet
Born in Gevaudan, Orlais, Marie was raised by her older brother, Sebastien. She grew up wild, something he encouraged. As she aged, she became the most skilled hunter in the area. This came into play when a beast began terrorizing the lands. A beast that turned out to be her own brother. It took three years, but she and a man named Henri killed him and Sebastien Valet was erased from history, leaving only the Beast behind. Marie began traveling, eventually ending up in Kirkwall where she became one of Hawke's companions. When the Breach opened, she was quick to join with the newfound Inquisition.Masterlist timeline found here.

SAOIRSE COUSLAND
EARLY LIFE
Saoirse Cousland was born to Eleanor and Bryce Cousland in Duskhaven, their second child behind her brother, Fergus. Her name is old Gilnean, Saoirse from her great-grandmother on her father's side, Áine from her grandmother on her mother's side. She was always a little more tomboyish, though she liked pretty things. She started play fighting with local boys which turned into training alongside them. Though her parents initially discouraged the roughhousing and training, they came to accept that Saoirse wasn't going to back down from it.Once Saoirse turned sixteen, her parents began the task of finding their daughter a suitable match for marriage to help them rise in status. Unfortunately for them, Saoirse set about sabotaging every attempt. She managed to destroy five engagements before they gave up on matching her. Her mother fell ill, passing away a few months after her seventeenth birthday. Brendan ended up giving in to Saoirse's desires to be a Greyguard, finding someone who would give her a chance.FALL OF GILNEAS
At the age of eighteen, she was inducted into the Greyguard. However, it wasn't to last. Only a matter of months later, the wall was broken and worgen and Forsaken alike began their assaults on the city. She did what she could, though she was bitten while attempting to defend the city from worgen. She escaped to Teldrassil alongside others, though the ship she, Queen Mia, and Princess Tess were on, Elune's Radiance, sank, nearly taking them all with it before rescue could come.Saoirse stayed in Darnassus with her people often, though she followed the Greymanes between it and Stormwind. She focused on trying to protect Princess Tess Greymane, though she rarely interacted with the young woman.
She mostly stuck around in Stormwind, as the royal family didn't wander far. She stayed with them through the events on Pandaria and Draenor, just moving when they did.THE UNCROWNED
When the Legion came, she followed Tess Greymane's lead, joining the Uncrowned. Though she never held any position of command, she did what she could to make connections within the ranks and to ensure the Legion's downfall. She grew quite fond of the motley group of people, learning from pirates, spys, and assassins alike. Despite the initial issues with SI:7, she did her best to gain ties with them, as well.In Suramar, Saoirse helped locate intelligence on those in power and helped refugees to safety. She did not participate in the main assault on the Nighthold, but did everything else she could, often found on the side of the city with the highest concentration of demons. She grew somewhat fond of the Nightborne she met within the Dusklily Rebellion and was rather disheartened when they joined the Horde--- though she certainly understood after seeing the ways Tyrande Whisperwind and the Night Elves treated them in comparison with the treatment by the Blood Elves.
THE FOURTH WAR
Though she still considered herself a member of the Uncrowned, she was quick to respond when the Horde began their assault in Darkshore. She went with Mia to Darnassus, assisting in the evacuation. She received a few burns, but made it out with her life. Barely waiting to heal, she joined the assault on Lordaeron and signed up with the 7th Legion to bring justice to the Horde and to Sylvanas Windrunner. She split her time well, going wherever she was told. While stationed in various places, she took a liking to Drustvar, something about it reminding her of her old home in Gilneas.Saoirse was on one of the ships that went after Nathanos Blightcaller, following the flagship, the Wind's Redemption. When the ocean opened up before them, she had frozen terribly, barely able to make a scramble enough to hold onto something, having been in ship wreck once before. Though she survived the collapse, it did injure her within an inch of her life. Luckily, she was found unconscious and revived by the Ankoan people. She wasn't a whole lot of help while in Nazjatar, her recovery taking a little time.THE SHADOWLANDS
A tentative peace doesn't help much when death rises against the world of the living. Saoirse was quick to fight in Duskwood as the Scourge began running rampant. She stuck with that until a new portal was established. A portal to the realm of death, the Shadowlands themselves. Her response was immediate as she signed herself up to go through and aid those beyond.She found herself in Revendreth, a place that reminded her a bit of a... redder Gilneas. At least, that would be what she told herself. After being dragged into the middle of what seemed to be (yet another) civil war, she found herself aligned with Prince Renethal and his Venthyr. Most of her time is spent there besides when little she allows for going back to Stormwind. She was also briefly affiliated with a group known as Custodes Vitae before a difference in opinions split her away from them. Following the Custodes, she join The Ambrose Arcana as a part-time performer, acting as an acrobat and sharpshooter. This, however, was also short lived as the circus collapsed upon the death of its founder Ada Ambrose.

Saoirse's homeland was destroyed in war with a necromancer and, unfortunately, a group of werewolves picked off at the survivors. In the assault, Saoirse was bitten. She lived with the affliction for a few years, constantly in pain from the changes. Until the moment she was snatched by the Nautiloid. After being tadpoled, somehow her shifts stabilized.

Saoirse was a young Skelligen noble, moonlighting as both guard and performer when she could. Unfortunately, a curse was placed upon her after slighting a suitor.

jaskier
Julian Alfred Pankratz keeps most of his past a mystery. Who doesn't love a mysterious person? While he's quick to make stories of other people's lives, he will never sing of his own, nor will he speak much of it. Julian doesn't matter. Jaskier does. The storyteller, the narrator of this tale.But who was Julian Pankratz? Born in Lettenhove, Kerack to Julia and Alfred Pankratz, Julian's life was full of expectation. His parents were cold, his father cruel, his schooling tedious. He was trained in the ways of nobility, to become Viscount once his father passed, but he'd never wanted it. He was a wayward child, straying constantly in pursuit of the arts.In Oxenfurt, he met Valdo Marx--- though, that was not the man's true name. It was a name he'd given to himself to raise his own standing. There was freedom in a stage name, Julian found, and thus Jaskier was born. He and Valdo went from friends to lovers to rivals, a near constant push and pull.Upon graduating, Jaskier set out for himself. He began small, playing in taverns for less than appreciative audiences. It was only once he met the witcher, Geralt of Rivia, that his fortunes shifted. He began to write about the witcher, a popularity campaign, of sorts. Jaskier would improve Geralt's tarnished reputation, gaining him renown and more job offers. In turn, he would have fuel for songs.This partnership was the beginning of a long, lasting friendship and, on Jaskier's part, some rather unrequited feelings. The friendship began rockily, Geralt pushing people away constantly, including a particularly rough fight between the two after a dragon hunt. Though the split was temporary, it only fueled a deep worry within Jaskier that he would never be enough.
It was then that Jaskier adopted a new alias, that of the 'Sandpiper'. Acting as a bard in Oxenfurt, he helped smuggle elves out of the North. His benefactor in these endeavors was Djikstra, the spymaster of Redania. This job was cut short when a mage by the name of Rience captured and tortured Jaskier to learn of Geralt's whereabouts. Luckily, the sorceress Yennefer of Vengerberg managed to find him and break him free, the pair fleeing Rience and reuniting with Geralt and his child surprise, Ciri.Over the course of Ciri's training, Jaskier became closer with the newly formed family of destiny. He played the role of uncle and observer. He flitted in and out of their lives, still performing in various cities like Novigrad.It was in Novigrad that Philippa Eilhart approached him, using Prince Radovid to attempt to convince Jaskier to let Redania "protect" Ciri. It came close to working before the Thanedd Coop threw everything into question and Ciri disappeared. Despite a blossoming romance with Radovid, Jaskier made his choice: his family would always come first.Note that in this main verse, Jaskier is a personification of Destiny. He is there at key points to move the story along. He is, quite literally, meant to be a plot device for those around him.

Gale Hawthorne
Gale was born in the Seam, the poorest area of the poorest district in Panem. His mother worked as a washer-woman and his father in the mines, both parents supporting Gale and his two younger brothers. When Hazelle was pregnant with their fourth child, Posy, tragedy struck. A mining accident killed Gale's father, leaving Gale the 'man' of the house. He took to the woods, an out of bounds area, to hunt. He was particularly gifted with traps and snares. Eventually, he encountered Katniss Everdeen, whose father had also perished in the mining accident. She had taken to hunting and providing for her family just as he had. Though initially on shaky ground, the two became closely bonded, Gale even developing feelings on his own end. While there may have been potential for the two, it was dashed when Katniss volunteered in the place of her younger sister. Gale took care of Katniss' family and his own as she fought in the Hunger Games. Her act with Peeta Mellark left Gale bitter and hurt.Upon aging out of the Games, Gale began his own work in the mines. Six days a week were spent in the dark and the dust. Sundays, he and Katniss would still sneak into the woods to hunt, but it had become dangerous for them to be seen together. Gale, for the sake of Katniss and Peeta's act, was deemed her cousin. The fires of rebellion had begun to grow inside Gale, leading to an altercation with 12's new Head Peacekeeper. Despite this, he didn't back down. He was angry and he felt he had every right to be. When Katniss and Peeta were carted off to the Quell, Gale continued his vendetta in 12. He replaced his pursuit of Katniss with a burning desire for rebellion. While mostly kept in check, it was clear one side would have to give. That moment came when Katniss blew up the arena. Gale noted the Peacekeepers pulling out of the district and immediately worked with some men from the mines to try and get people to safety. Unfortunately, the majority of District 12's population was too afraid to follow him. He managed to save less than a tenth of the population, watching as the rest were firebombed. Eventually, District 13 came to the survivors' rescue. Gale found a place for himself in their ranks easily.

Born not far from the Watipi Reservation, Gale wasn't unused to poverty and prejudice. He took up hunting and trapping to feed his family of five, but in an ever industrializing world, that only went so far. That was when he was extended an offer to work as a guide and occasional member of the Van der Linde gang. It paid well enough for him to consider it, though he's not always a permanent member.

The Green has a notorious habit of only reaching out to women, but that didn't mean Gale Hawthorne was unaware of it. Having grown up near Cherokee, North Carolina, he was well aware of the forces and things within the mountains and forests. A talented hunter, Gale formed a working relationship with the Boggs family. He often travelled around Boggs Holler, well aware of the Deep Things that lingered about.
