Misc.

Vitya:

vitya is my newest character and as mentioned above, he doesn’t belong to any collaborative story or ongoing project. he is a fairly young, think mid-20′s/early 30′s, and russian. he does not speak any english.

he is a professional-level metal vocalist and songwriter. he has developed his own vocal technique, which allows him to sound although he is speaking/singing several notes at once. despite his talent, his real passion is miming. he is not mute in any way, but he is usually miming in costume, so he does not usually speak.

he used to be part of a band with his (now ex-)girlfriend. they didnt work out for several reasons, but one of them was in fact his interest in miming/clowning. when they broke up, she took the band with her and subsequently his last reasons for continuing to pursue music professionally. he lives alone in a condo, and is currently living mainly off a small inheritance left to him by his father who passed. (natural causes, his father was old already when he was born)

some months after the breakup, his ex drops a baby at his door and hits the road with their her band. he had no idea she had been pregnant, and he doesnt know if the baby is actually his. he decides that it ultimately doesnt matter as he is a much better choice for a guardian than his ex. so he takes the baby in as his daughter and does his best to raise her well. (her name is still TBD. by me, not vitya lol)

vitya as a person is thoughtful, introspective, and affectionate. he is well-read, and when he writes music, his lyrics are intelligent and evocative. as a mime, his persona is silly in a gentle way.

Lemon Pepper:

not much to say about them because other than being a bit nuts, they are just me! but i love them and wanted to include them!!

DND Characters

Fennryn “Fenn” Autumntide:

wood elf ranger. a little older, think 35-40. they were orphaned as a baby for reasons unknown to them, and found by a dwarf in the mountains: Rhiannon “Anna” Autumntide. she took them in and raised them, though she tried very hard for most of her life to keep an emotional distance, treating them more as a charge than her own child. despite cultural differences, she did her best to raise them as any elf might be raised, teaching them what elvish she knew alongside dwarven and common, and that when they become of age, they will have an adult name, which she says they should pick themself. she also taught them about the forest, and nature, and right from wrong, and how to protect those who need protecting. fenn was a feisty child as a result, though they mellowed greatly with age. as fenn got older, though, so did anna, and it eventually became undeniable that the bond they shared was close, familial. when fenn became of age to choose their adult name, they chose to take on anna’s last name. though they never said “i love you” to each other, it was felt, and shown. fenn cared for anna until her death.

after anna’s passing, fenn putts around their cabin for several months or perhaps a couple of years, before the loneliness becomes too much for them to bear. after much self-debate, they leave their home, and set out to find anything, anything other than the crushing isolation of their cabin in the mountains.

what they find is the opportunity for adventure, joining a crew of pirates. one such pirate is Finn, a confident tiefling rogue. among a crew of odd characters, these two trust each other immediately. along their journey, their relationship develops into something more, and they face their challenges together.

on their own, fenn is strong, silent, and awkward. they experience some anxiety, unused to seeing so many people, and all the sights and sounds that are so unfamiliar to them. they start smoking herbs to help them relax. fenn is also kind, and trustworthy, and they have a desire to do the right thing. they have a quiet sense of humor once you get to know them.

Alistair:

okay so UNFORTUNATELY..... this will be a bit of a trend among the dnd characters— i have several characters i love whose campaigns were canceled very early into the story, that i plan to play again as soon as i have the chance. (as well as a couple that im playing currently!) and seeing as there are people in my current circle who i play dnd with who follow me, im not gonna post their backstories to this list.

alistair is a half-elf warlock. they are very high-energy with little regard for personal space. they do not speak about themself or their past or their work or even their patron. they are extremely mysterious despite being extremely talkative.

alistair has a joyful appreciation for morbid artifacts. they love to study, and are very curious by nature. they also have a collection of teeth in a jar, which they have proven to collect themself, by hand. also, their eyes glow! thats pretty weird, huh?

in a modern au, they’re a camboy and they mod furbies.

Vivienne Chandrakant:

an elven sorcerer. vivienne is on her own— but she used to be an adventurer. her old party’s quest was heavily observed by a higher power, and they regularly received divine guidance and assistance. the world had become overrun by a plague that was known to turn its victims into unnatural beasts, and vivienne and her friends were on course to stop it. however, when things turned dire, and they needed the gods most, they went silent. vivienne watched her party die. she has seen the terror of the plague firsthand.

she lives with an immense amount of guilt. she occasionally drinks to cope. despite herself, vivienne cannot resist the call of a person in need. and unfortunately for her, it leads her right back to another adventuring party. vivienne cares deeply for the safety of others and has a tendency to mother hen And mama bear. she tries her best to keep her distance from others, emotionally, to questionable success— she is not cold or unkind, only prefers to keep unattached, now.

in a modern au, shes a social studies student and part of a polycule. (art from said modern au because i dont like her old art anymore lmaoo)

Jesse Ravenscroft:

human bard. jesse hates his job— thats how jesse describes being a bard: his job. he plays the clarinet, and while he is technically very skilled, there is no heart in his music. it is unknown to his party what brought jesse to seek adventure, or much else about him or his past. he is extremely pessimistic and not easy to get close to.

besides the clarinet, jesse is very technically skilled in many things, in fact, several of which he seems to enjoy much more than music or storytelling or anything else that would normally be associated with a bard. he seems to specialize in the arcane and in academia, and he’s the go-to for solving riddles among his party.

jesse is extremely sarcastic, and while he is not very friendly, he does have a sense of humor (even if it’s a little mean), and he somewhat enjoys bickering with his party (though you certainly wouldnt guess it).

in a modern au, jesse is in college for engineering or something. he lives in a frat house despite not being in a frat, and the jocks all bully him into doing their math homework. he works at chuck e cheese, as chuck e cheese. he is in a polycule with more people than should reasonably want to date him. he smokes cigarettes and drinks shitty beer and drives the worlds shittiest car. (i make his life hell because its funny)

in a medieval royal au, he is a mean, spoiled prince. he bullies his primary guards for fun.

random fact, jesse is fantasy jewish. in the modern au he is of course, regular jewish.

(i have a LOT of art of jesse. a lot a lot. i love my clown he is very dear to me)

Ford:

firbolg maverick(iirc). made him for a brief cowboy campaign that used a ruleset called Snakes’n’Saloons. ford is very kind and generous by nature, and loves to put his strength to good use. however, his size and strength can be very intimidating before you get to know him, and... even sometimes after you get to know him. is he doing that on purpose?

he has a sister named Clementine, who is very notably not a firbolg. she is sweet and kind, maybe even more so than her brother, and she runs a general store in town.

Loren Vale:

another wood elf ranger babey what can i say. its an addiction.

not much about loren’s past is known to their party yet. it is known, however, that they used to be a mortician. they practiced for a good few years in one of the bigger, central cities. they liked their job, and were good at it, and it paid the bills. over the years, however, they began noticing different things while they worked. this led them to the study of what power remains when a creature passes on. they became engrossed in this study, and eventually closed down their business.

loren moved to a cabin in the woods, to study on their own and to attempt to commune with the forces of nature. eventually, their study led them to the art of carving bones. these carvings proved to enhance their abilities depending upon the intent and the imagery carved into the surface of the bones.

loren is not the type who likes to stay settled for long— they tend to just do whatever seems the most fun at any given time. when they got tired of carving bones alone in the woods, they began slowly emerging, until they were eventually swept up for a quest.

in a group, loren is good-humored and sensible (...mostly). they do occasionally get elbow-deep into some creature guts for fresh bones for their collection, and they seem to appreciate morbid curios, like taxidermy. theyre also not shy, and can be a little flirtatious.

Cecilia “Cece” Marigold Coriander Sprout:

rabbitfolk trickery domain cleric. cece was raised on an island, in a temple worshipping Remos (the in-game equivalent to the christian god; she was basically raised catholic). she hasn’t talked too much about her past— just that everything changed when Eventide came. eventide came to all the young clerics in cece’s temple, speaking to them in their dreams, promising them lives more full of fun. there followed an uprising— the temple became eventide’s first, and for the time being only, place of worship. and the cleric’s lives have been more fun. they still worship him, but unlike remos, eventide answers, and he tells them how much he loves them.

and cece is the most special. she has been sent on a special mission off-island to spread the good word. word of a god who listens, a god who wants you to live your life to the fullest, a god who is happy when you are happy, a god who just wants a slice of your birthday cake.

cece is joyful, and friendly, and just a little mischievous. she loves love, and is not shy about sharing it with her friends (or really most anyone else, for that matter). however, she is also not immune to embarrassment, and feels very strongly that there is a “good” silly and a “bad” silly. she is very passionate about her god and feels genuine hurt when he is mocked.

in a modern au, she loves funky modern fashion like e-girl and kidcore, and she loves to craft and do stick’n’pokes for her friends. she’s not popular, but she likes to go to parties anyway.

in a separate human au, she grows up in the 70s :)

Cressida

brief world details: demons are real but not in the biblical sense. they are beings who can exist on other planes (“hell” and “limbo”) and who, at least in most cases, used to be human. cressida city is one of the remaining standing cities post-environmental apocalypse. it’s very sci-fi. full of demons and humans alike. the government is a sham and cops are still pigs. there’s an extensive seedy underworld (figurative) in the city. one demon in particular, Cordia, is heading an organization (“Orion”) of empowered humans (“celestials”) in an attempt to keep the city from going entirely to shit, and to eventually assist in overthrowing the corrupt governing demons in hell. (tl;dr demons are real kinda and so are superpowers. big sci-fi city)

Ellis:

ellis actually came to be because of a dream i had. i was having an awful nightmare that i just could not force myself to wake up from. which is unusual for me, because i almost always become lucid toward the end of a nightmare and can force myself awake. but even though i became lucid, it was like i was trapped. then, all of a sudden, the dream just froze. and perched in front of me, was a very nice looking man, dressed in a very old-fashioned brown suit. he calmed me down and apologized, and he told me that he could change the dream if i wanted. and i did, and he did. he snapped his fingers and i was suddenly somewhere else completely, and he was gone. he felt so real to me when i woke up that i had to create ellis.

ellis is an entity who lives in limbo, alongside a demon named Crow. ellis also works for crow, helping to keep limbo and all its souls in check. ellis has the ability to enter people’s minds, and he can do several things ranging from browse dreams, sort through memories, or even change them completely. he is kept very busy and is often left quite tired as a result. he does his best in his work, though he’s not a stranger to making mistakes. he’s gotten very good at fixing problems (especially the ones he causes).

ellis is a romantic at heart, and to his knowledge, always has been. it does not take him very long to develop romantic feelings for crow. despite the fact that he is pretty openly flirtatious, it takes him over a century to actually confess his feelings.

ellis and crow live very analog lives. even though they live in the future, residing in limbo allows them to keep separate from the rest of the world. they find comfort in being old-fashioned.

Cyrus Darcy:

cyrus darcy is a huge bitch with a stupid amount of money for one man. he lives to dress pretty, lounge around all day, get wine drunk in vip lounges, and hook up with handsome men.

cyrus’ fortune was left to him by his parents, who died when he was about 20. up until that point, he’d been living pretty rebelliously with a much rougher crowd. the death of his parents didnt exactly sober him, but it made him change his lifestyle pretty quickly.

cyrus actually catches the attention of Cordia because of his powers— cyrus has the power of suggestion. as long as someone is within eyesight(approx.), he can give them a short, simple command that they are then compelled to follow. he uses it often enough just to get what he wants (which is mostly for people to leave him alone).

Rosier:

rosier is my fucking. beloved.

rosier is a demon, who lived as a human in the early 1800s. he was born in france, and his family moved to canada. he was just a little entitled, as his family was pretty well-off. he was also pretty cocky, as is the wont of handsome, rich young men who have natural charisma and leadership skills.

for the napoleonic wars, he sailed back to france and joined the army. he was pretty good at playing soldier, and despite being pretty young, he became an officer easily. unfortunately, though, one wrong decision he made led to the deaths of most of his men. and not long after, as the survivor’s guilt settled in, he met his own end as well.

rosier’s recklessness regarding the lives of others landed him squarely in hell, as a demon. he was now stronger, his senses were sharper, and he learned he could change shape; a large, pitch dark, bipedal creature, with wings and claws and long, sharp fangs. Sonnellion, one of the archdemons governing hell, and a lover of war, quickly claimed him. rosier became, in essence, sonnellion’s dog. he was forced to do terrible things under sonnellion’s command, and despite his protests, he was not physically strong enough to do anything about it. for a time, rosier accepted his position, and kept himself in check. on occasion, away from sonnellion, he even maintained some semblance of his old self: confident, charming. with the addition of the powers he gained when he became a demon, he was even more a force to be reckoned with.

after almost two hundred years, it all became too much. rosier snapped. he shifted forms, in a wild, furious daze, and flew, far away from hell, and from sonnellion.

rosier landed himself on earth, in the united states. the sights were unfamiliar to him— how many years had passed? he settled in the woods somewhere. the woods were familiar enough— woods are woods. (he was discovered, more than once. he became wildly frightened, every time. The Mothman, they called him, but he wouldn’t find out until almost a century later.)

as the years pass on, rosier hops from isolated location to isolated location, forgetting himself, forgetting he had ever been anything but this. his mind completely broke. as the apocalypse happened around him, he almost entirely lost the ability to speak.

he spends several years living in the ruins of a city, surviving on whatever he can find in the endless abandoned buildings... until he is found by Arley, Cordia’s right-hand.

rosier initially fights with arley, of course. between fight and flight, his instinct has become fight. but they keep coming back, trying to learn more about him. it doesnt take too long before they realize that hes scared of them, just territorial, and they change their approach.

arley, for lack of a better term, somewhat tames rosier. it takes weeks before they can get him to follow them to their headquarters, and show him to cordia. cordia, much older than rosier, recognizes him.

after a very lengthy process of getting rosier to settle down, he eventually takes up residence in the largely empty hotel that is orion’s hq building. he spends most days hidden away in spare rooms, only answering to the calls of arley, and occasionally Curtis, the resident chef.

arley is the one person who makes rosier feel the safest, and as such takes charge of his rehabilitation. they help him remember how to speak, read, and write. and after several months... rosier is a man again. mostly.

rosier, at this point, now has limbs that have turned black at the tips, his hair is longer and wilder than ever, hes much taller than he ever was as a human, and his eyes are solid red all the way around. and he still has some fur. but mostly, he’s a man again.

its another while still until he can communicate very effectively. and his shift is easily triggered by any physical feeling of stress for some time. but he slowly regains control of himself. arley eventually enlists their friend Denver, a very chill guy, to see if he can offer rosier help that he cant get from arley.

a few years in the future, rosier becomes more than the sum of his parts. physically, he looks to be a fairly normal, tall man, aside from his all-red eyes, which he keeps. his personality is like it was before, but also not. he is no longer afraid for his life every day. he is strong, and confident, and has a good sense of humor, and denver has been a horrible influence on his fashion sense.

Marcy:

marcy is my BABY. they are pretty young, like 19/20, and VERY energetic. their favorite things in life are roller skating, their friends, parties, sex, and drugs. they love parties SO much, and before joining orion, that was how they spent most of their time. they love music and like to play around in different music software when they get a quiet moment. before they came out as nonbinary, they also used to do roller derby. marcy is very athletic and has very strong legs in particular.

marcy’s powers that got them scouted for orion, have to do with gravity control. they can essentially increase and decrease the effects of gravity on their body at will. they use this to float around sometimes mostly, but they can also use it to scale buildings, jump extremely high, and come down hard— think like an irl ground pound.

marcy comes from a huge family, they have 9 siblings. 3 older, 6 younger. their family is very important to them, especially since as one of the older siblings, they contributed greatly to raising their younger siblings. although they spend most of their time at parties, with friends, or at orion, they technically still live at home. theyre a huge mama’s kid.

they have adhd, and theyre medicated. theyre not super dysphoric so sometimes they bind and sometimes they dont. theyre pan + poly.

Evelyn:

it is not yet really known what evelyn is. non-human, yes, certainly, but she isnt quite a demon either. she has a very strong aura visible to only a select few people— namely, those capable of connecting to the afterlife planes.

when evelyn was a human, she lived in the victorian era. she was the daughter of a wealthy man, and they had moved to the united states from england when she was a child. she was born with the ability to see into the history of people and objects, though this was usually chalked up to a keen sense of intuition.

evelyn was often in poor health, and there seemed to be no cure for her condition. because of this, she was often confined to her home. she spent a lot of her spare time reading. she developed a love for learning, of course, but also for stories of fantasy and romance. she was lovely, and smart, and because of her status was much sought after by young eligible bachelors. however, despite her secret wishes to be swept off her feet, no man ever interested her.

until Robin, that is. robin was beautiful, and charming, and better than all the other young men at every game there was to play. more than that, he had a quick wit. he interested evelyn more than any other man ever had. they ended up spending time together fairly frequently, and he seemed to really appreciate evelyn’s mind in a way she was unused to.

and one night, it is revealed to evelyn what made robin so different. he wasn’t a man at all.

evelyn and robin had a lengthy (for the time) love affair. her father approved of the courtship well enough, but the true extent and nature of their relationship was kept very much a secret. evelyn was enjoying her life more than she ever had.

suddenly, without forewarning, robin just disappeared. no word, no nothing. she just left.

evelyn died young, succumbing to her poor health.

when she comes back to life, stronger and healthier than she has ever been, she is in a world completely foreign to her. she quickly packs away her initial shock, and sets out to make good use of this opportunity she’s been given.

evelyn spends her time reading, again. she plays a game of catch-up for months, learning all that she can about the way that this new world works, how it came to be. she finds a job as an archivist for the city, and a nice modern apartment.

when members of orion spot her aura, though, they know they have to get her to meet Cordia. and evelyn agrees, because she cant resist the appeal of being special, and the whole arrangement is so weird that it makes her intensely curious.

evelyn enters the meeting room and it is immediately undeniable. cordia is robin.

an argument ensues, and then a heartfelt conversation, and then a passionate exchange, and then an argument again, and the cycle continues several times over several months. evelyn rightly holds a lot of anger toward cordia, not only for leaving but for the extent of her deceit, when evelyn herself had been so vulnerable. and cordia is literally the worst at emotions.

theyre still in the middle of their slow burn. theyre working on it, wish them luck.

Audrey:

audrey is a demon bimbo serial killer. she’s a huge bitch.

audrey is one of my characters who is a part of cressida’s underbelly. she works in a club run by a demon called Jack. jack is one of the archdemons in charge of hell. he likes to be up in the city running the red light district for shits n gigs. jack is a fucking asshole and audrey is one of his favorites. jacks favorites get special treatment, and audrey relishes in it.

audrey uses the club as a way to meet her victims. she mostly goes for gross, rich old men whom she can take full advantage of before doing away with them.

the personality she shows most people is a drunk, dumb slut. in actuality she can be pretty harsh, and her actions are all carefully measured and calculated.

on a random night, audrey lets (yes, lets) herself get kidnapped by some guy named Flynn. flynn is by all standards, a fucking loser. and he also happens to be a serial killer— who preys on cute girls. audrey lets him have his fun for a brief moment, before turning the tables on him, showing him who’s really in charge. which makes flynn just about piss his pants.

audrey decides this is pretty funny, and starts making a habit of hanging around flynn to torment him. she teases him mostly about things of a sexual nature.

in a weird way, they like each other. but obviously its extremely toxic.

audrey did not have a good past as a human and its better left at that, i think.

Denver Keeley:

denver is mostly, at first glance, just a guy. he’s one of my older mortal ocs, physically, at around 35 years old.

denver is chill as fuck. the first thing most people note about him is that he’s clearly obsessed with the 1970′s. he dresses in carefully curated vintage and vintage-style clothing. if you visit his house (he regularly has visitors, his doors are figuratively almost always open), it’s styled much in the same way. his decorating sense looks right out of a 70′s catalogue or something. if you get to know him, you might find out that he’s kind of handy. because of all the rare old shit he keeps around, he’s had to learn how to be his own repairman for most things.

the second thing people notice is that he lays the charm on very thick, and seemingly outright refuses to call anyone by their real name. he prefers to give everyone a petname. he also uses a lot of 70′s slang, some of which no one else understands even remotely. he never introduces himself with his full name— just denver.

denver loves music, and if you ask, he’ll tell you that he’s a musician by trade. which is mostly true enough. he likes to carry around a pencil and mini notebook with him to write down tunes and lyrics that come to him. he “plays guitar well, and sings badly” if you ask him. he also collects CDs and vinyl albums. (he releases music semi-anonymously as Denny Keeley and The Corks. only his family ever calls him denny, and the corks dont exist. he is the corks.)

the real truth is though, that denver owns and operates the city’s single largest marijuana grow op. he does it all: flower, prerolls, edibles— pick your pleasure, denvers got you covered. and his shit is divine. he seems to think that it’s no big deal and rarely thinks to even bring it up, despite the fact that it’s an extremely lucrative business for him.

business is so booming, in fact, that Jack wants denver to deal for him, exclusively. denver actually refuses, preferring to do his business his own way.

denver happens to run into Arley and some of the others from orion while in town. they look extremely rough, so after chatting a while, he offers to let them come chill at his house to lay low and recover for a little while. unbeknownst to denver, this puts an even bigger target on his back, and jack later sends some lesser demons to try and kill him. orion saves the day, fortunately for denver, who again is literally just a regular human guy. this prompts Cordia to begrudgingly offer him some protection, in exchange for denver promising to never go exclusive with anyone. because cordia loves few things more than an opportunity to piss off jack.

denver and arley start seeing each other more often, and denver offers a job to their friend Kier at his farm. and it looks like jack isn’t done with denver yet.

denver didnt have the easiest childhood. he loved his mom, but she left the picture pretty early in his life. his dad wasnt great, and he remarried. his dads new wife also wasnt great. denver has a younger sister who was easily the favored child, and didnt share the same experience as denver in their upbringing at all. she grew up to be very normal, and has a kid of her own already.

denver has had trouble settling down. he’s been in a lot of toxic relationships, mostly with women who he let boss him around and mistreat him.

eventually, denver ends up in a poly relationship with arley and Rosier.

Madison “Zinc” Deacon:

madison is uhhhhhhh........... uh... yikes. they are a human with no special powers or anything. theyre pretty high-energy and fun-loving. they like to joke and tease and invade their few “friends’“ personal space. they love colorful bracelets and garfield. i dunno whats up with that. they have adhd and probable autism.

madison is a scientist. they work for a lab that studies celestials. its hardly ethical science. the lab does not treat their subjects particularly well and madison is no different.

madisons specialty, technically, is in robotics. particularly cybernetic enhancements. madison was born deaf/hard of hearing, and they designed their own cochlear implants. they make and sell all kinds of gadgets and cybernetics to help fund their hobbies outside of work.

their hobbies outside of work are kidnapping celestials and doing even less ethical experiments on them in their secret lab, in an abandoned part of the sewer under the city. ...and blogging! their penname is “Zinc”. they blog about both normal things and about their findings.

their business partner is a man named Henry, who is an even more advanced robotics buff. henry offers madison information in exchange for the fucked up gadgets henry could never dream up on his own. (last time it was taxidermy pigeon spy cameras.)

henry is the one who gives madison information about Arley, who becomes sort of madison’s white whale. except they do manage to capture them pretty easily the first time. this is when “zinc” becomes not only madisons penname, but their villain name as well.

their only other friend is Alexei the tranq guy, the guy who sells them tranquilizer so they can kidnap more people.

Jonesy:

jonesy is an employee of Denver’s! one of his star employees, in fact. denvers business operates very nontraditionally. he insists that every employee get paid salary, and that no one is required to work any set number of hours. breaks are whenever you want them for however long you wanna take them. some people take advantage of this system, but denver truthfully doesnt care. he’s happy to provide when he can, and he has more than enough means for the foreseeable future.

but jonesy is happy to do the work. he enjoys sitting in the quiet and rolling joints all day, or whatever denver needs done.

because of the salary denver pays them, jonesy can afford a pretty decent apartment on their own in the city. they keep many, many reptiles, mainly lizards. all of which have weird names like “soap” and “vape cloud”.

jonesy is pretty young, and likes to hang out and smoke with other cool people. they’ve adopted some of denvers 70′s slang, as most of his employees have.

Mateo:

mateo is the newest addition! i dont have a lot of info about him yet :)

i was going for a kind of soft punk meets jack black vibe when i designed him. he was made specifically with Curtis in mind. curtis is the live-in chef for orion and he deserves a hot bear bf.

mateo’s powers involve gaining super strength from the food he eats. the better the food, the more powerful he gets from it!

and ive talked a bit about this in other places, but ofc as a fat person myself i usually dont like when a fat characters powers are related to eating in some way. because it often comes across as a joke or like, “oh this character is only fat because their powers make them eat” or whatever other weird shit can come from characters like that. so i just want to be very clear that mateo would be fat regardless of his powers. hes fat and hes sexy and he was designed that way for curtis. and then he was given food powers because its cute to have the chef’s boyfriend power up from eating his cooking.

i havent decided much about his story yet! but i know he has good taste in music for sure. i mean, just look at him.

Ashley (aka Verrier):

poor ashley lmao

ashley is another demon who, like rosier, was brought to hell as one of sonnellion’s subordinates.

when he was alive, he was a relatively successful businessman on wall street. family business, yknow, doing his best to take after his father. he wasnt quite fit for it though, and shit went south, and he landed himself in hell.

he is, technically speaking, very powerful. he has the ability to control dark matter, and give it physical form, or turn it into a force. if not for that, he would not have been nearly as high-ranking a subordinate as he is. he worked very closely with rosier, until rosier’s disappearance. he and rosier had... some kind of relationship, for a time, until that point. they were there for each other. in more ways than one.

being the most technically powerful subordinate after rosier, sonnellion had ashley take over rosier’s position. but he was significantly less suited for it, and it got him punished severely several times over the years. he is pretty good at his job now, and it mostly involves him doing paperwork. war involves a lot of behind-the-scenes, these days.

everything gets fucked up when he gets summoned by Shae.

shae is another employee of cordia’s. they’re a new addition and sort of a wildcard. they’re a very powerful witch, and they summon ashley for their own personal gain. they strongarm him into making a deal with them, binding himself to them to make them more powerful.

(they’re going to fall in love, kind of. they have to get through their preemptively-divorced era first <3)
