Ulysses Serkan:

-So I looked it up a while ago because I have a boner for ~quirky yet meaningful names~, and his name (taken from Greek and Turkish, which is funny I guess because I heard a long time ago those two countries aren’t on good terms? I’m not very current in world events.) means ‘rage’ and ‘blood head’ respectively……According to the internet at least.

It’s supposed to be ~meaningful~

-So I toyed with an idea a long long time ago for a race of magical people-beings who all had highly flammable blood, and they all had a birthmark like they were all ‘branded’ as such. Culturally, where the birthmark was on the body was more important than trying to figure out what the heck it look like. If you got it on your hands, then you’re probably good with ‘em, if it’s on your head, you’re gonna be smart, etc. So Ulysses has his on his face and it looks like a huge ass blotch on one side and it’s all two-facey and stuff, whoo symbolism.

-This nerd was used in a huge ol’ forum based RP called the Clanball Wars, a fantasy RP setting where all this crazy stuff happened with magic and monsters and minor political intrigue. There were heroes, and there were bad guys.

Ulysses was going to be a villian.

I had dreams and plots in mind for him. He was going to at LEAST be a mid-boss level character, pulling strings, messing with political figureheads, declaring WARS? It played out like a cutscene in my mind, but the RP kind of puttered out because everyone involved had Real life stuff to do, and bills to pay, and sadly we didn’t finish.

-He’s supposed to be a cool, methodical type, keeping people at a distance and plotting the good plot. If you slighted him, he would ruin you. He tries to keep his temper in check and gets very embarrassed when his emotions get the better of him. He’s a huge goddamn tuxedo cat who fashions himself to be a bad guy, or at least an anti villain, I guess. I’m not good with explaining my characters, and I get the sneaking suspicion they’re not as fleshed out as I want them to be.

Kriket Zibeon:

-precious dumb nerd.

-So THIS was the best fantroll I could come up with back in my Homestuck phase, who wasn’t a very good troll but a really good cupcake. Truly, I have a gift. He was supposed to be based off of the chameleon constellation- I know right? I looked it up, I swear- and I came up with his last name first, couldn’t find a good first name, slapped on a bug and here we are. Terrible research. Do better next time.

He’ll probably just be a human from now on. I might just change the spelling back to what it’s supposed to be, Cricket, but anyways, he’s a curious, friendly type who prefers to spend all his time outside catching bugs or climbing trees, and generally likes or is curious about people and wants to make friends, but he’s also gullible and naive and trusts a little more easily than he should. It’s really easy to tease him about stuff, but he makes a very loyal and doting best friend.

-he’s kind of short for a dude.

-his favorite possession is his green beanie. He’s always wearing it and he always has terrible hat hair.

Roslin Irving:

-Fun fact this used to be my wizard on Ragnarok Online when I still played on private servers turned mage for a White Wolf tabletop campaign (Order of Hermes, which doesn’t suit her personality at all) which again, fizzled out. 

-In terms of her avatar?, WW speaking, hers was a kelpie, questing type.

-Poor girl tried her best to be the diplomatic peacekeeper in a group all mashed together of a ferret pooka, a garou, a Ventrue, a demon, and satyr, because our DM allowed it and Fuck The Rules, We’re Not Very Well Acquainted With The Lore (all the races are affected by some heavy shit remix). She got along pretty well with the garou, all things considered.

-She can be a little retiring but when push comes to shove, she will do what’s needed and if that means she has to nuke a person to do it, she will.
