#tirion

oc character sheet: tirion

Basic Info —

Name & Nicknames: Tirion (meaning “kind”, “gentle”). Her surname is Jones. Her most common nickname is simply Tiri!

Species: human

Age and Birth Date: she’s 18 years old and her birthday is June 27th, making her a Cancer!

Ethnicity: half Welsh and half Japanese

Birth place: along the coastline of Wales

Currently lives: Japan while she undergoes her last two years of high school

Religion: Atheist but she respects and is curious about all religions

Languages Spoken and Native Language: Her native language is English, though she can speak mostly fluently in Japanese and understands basic, conversational Welsh. She’s also learning French as one of her school subjects

Physical Appearance—

Facial features/description: a blend of soft and hard features. Medium sized, rounded lips, thick-lashed big eyes, high cheekbones and a fine but slightly imperfect nose. She has the look of one of those nonchalant French actresses. Think Julie Delpy, Haydée from La Collectionneuse or young Gillian Anderson.

Eye colour: Hazel with almost unnoticeable flecks of gold

Hair: She has her hair to her collarbones right now, but usually keeps it cropped to just below her ears with wispy bangs. It’s this medium brown colour, uninteresting until it’s under the sun and shines like gold. It is fluffy, has a slight wave and also grows very quickly

Skin tone: light-medium warm skin tone, almost peach-like! She also tans easily and often forgets to reapply sunscreen, and her face is naturally dotted with freckles

Makeup: very light and minimal. Tinted moisturiser or sunscreen, concealer, brown mascara and a coral/rosy lip and cheek balm applied to both areas. Her freckles (and eye bags) peak through, and she looks glowy and somewhat sun-kissed because of it. She also uses a tinted lip balm throughout the day because it’s more practical than a lipstick or lip gloss in her opinion. Loves products that are useful for multiple things and tends to gravitate towards them

Height: 5’6 or 172cm!

Build: very slim and somewhat bony but with a feminine softness; rounded shoulders and a delicate spine. Long legs and a subtle, womanly slope from waist to hips

Piercings: She has 3 lobe piercings in each ear. She used to have a tiny nose stud, but had to take it out when she started at Ryoutei (but Ayato can have a fully unbuttoned shirt and Subaru can have a tattered shirt hem… ok 😃)

Strengths, Weaknesses and Goals —

Strengths: Her resilience is a major strength. Her ability to keep persevering even though it seems the world is a small, miserable box closing in around her is immense. She also shows a gentler strength in being a good listener, as well remembering things about people with a quiet kind of compassion. She holds a lot of love and empathy for the world and the people around her (even if she’s seen lots of it at its worst). She will often put others above herself time and time again if she truly cares about them

Weaknesses/Flaws: Her resilience can be one of her biggest weaknesses as well. Though she barely notices it, she tends to get stuck in a survivor schedule; she keeps working, studying, providing and she doesn’t realise how tired she is because she’s so numb to it all and she just has to keep going, going, going until she inevitably crashes. Her ability to open up is also a big flaw of hers. Her compassion is quiet, unspoken and visible only to those who notice the little things, so sometimes she comes across as cold, apathetic and blank. She’s also prone to being flaky too, prioritising work and study over friendships and relationships if they’re not too serious to her so she struggles sometimes to maintain them

Goals: Her main goal is to get a scholarship for university because she cannot afford it otherwise. She places a high value on her education because she knows it’s the only independent way out of financial hardship

Favourites —

Colours: brown, sea green, sunset orange

Books: she tends to go for two kinds of books; ones with a lot of adventure and fantasy or ones that are deep with lessons and feelings that linger for days, weeks, months after she’s read the book. Some of her all-time favourites are The Lord of the Rings and Our Wives Under the Sea.

Movies: loves quiet films because they feel close to her own heart. Past Lives (2023) and Moonlit Winter (2019) really stuck with her.

Music: she’s not one to be pinned down by one genre or sound when it comes to music, but she loves when there’s something said within the music. Her favourite artists are Jeff Buckley, Japanese Breakfast, The Smiths, Blood Orange, Lamp, Mazzy Star, Sade, Ichiko Aoba and many more.

Season: Mid to late autumn! When the air is crisp and cool without the eye-watering bite of winter and the trees look like they are on fire. She especially loves autumn in Japan because their maple trees are so vibrant but delicate when they change colours. She loves buying a coffee and sipping it beneath the foliage, just watching the leaves rustle and flutter to the ground, cheeks flushed from the cold wind <3

Subjects: History, geography and linguistics/languages. Subjects rooted in fact, but less rigid than STEM subjects! They also have more of a noticeable structure than something like literature.

A trick you say?!

Tirion upon Túna, the city of the Noldor in Valinor, and the surrounding countrysides board to go with my Valmar board!

I realize that most of my boards for Valinor are Alqualondë and so I wanted to make some for these other locations too!

You mean the story where Darion punches Tirion and then strips in front of him? Yes. Yes I have.
