Tarn; Tarn brother to Zurin, a suave debonair skele with all the smoothness of a honey. He lets things roll off his shoulders most of the time and loves the ladies. His scars came from protecting his ship, though his face he says relieves mostly slaps from bickering females. He’s the type to take a drink, and as punches are flying he’s easily sidestepping them.  Nero; Going right along with the pirate au, Nero is not related to Tarn or Zurin, in fact their from another au that merged with theirs. Nero does however see the other two as brothers or perhaps cousins, and they all decided to just sail the seas together. He’s into puns, gambling, and good time, but he still has the tongue of a deadly snake if pissed off enough. He never did like the slurring of pirates and therefore still enunciates every word. He’s not above cursing if it gets his point across. He generally makes all the business deals Not trusting Zurin to instead barter away all their money and gems on animals.  Fang/Cotter; Fang the brother of Nero. Reserved, quiet, generally doesn’t do the bars or anything big and rowdy. However, does love to do crowds if such things as fireworks go off. Their au wasn’t the nicest of au’s, but he’s learned to chill out. His attributes are bravery and kindness. He’s a big skele that just wants cuddles but doesn’t trust most people so he just sticks to himself.  Next up is our Swapswitch Au; Cake and Batter. (shared with @inkswirl Cake; A loveable, hugable, dude that loves to cook and eat said food. I’ll have more on him later because there is a lot and I am tiredly posting this at like 5:33 am.  Batter; Brother to Cake. A tsundere through and through. Tough on the outside, a big ball of sweet on the inside. That is once you can get past his rough exterior. He has adopted a shifting dragon by the name of “purr” a purple dragon of the moon variety. 

“What left a deeper wound in me was not my decision to make. With hard-fought freedom earned, Mor was summoned at last to take his leave from Cyrod, and so I was made to say my goodbyes. We were lovers for but a brief few years, but in that time, I found a love like revelation in him, something so wild and inspiring as in his divine parent, yet with a mortal hand outstretched toward mine, complete with all the eccentricities and human flaws that made him all the more fascinating... parting with him dealt a heavy blow; it was something that I’d long feared, but naively hoped might never come. We were very close to the idyllic life that had that urged us forward into skies full of fire and arrows- we were fighting for our own peace just as much as anyone else’s- but some things aren’t meant to be, as are the inscrutable whims of the divine... I take heart in knowing that each breeze that sweeps through the canopy, that darts across the Rumare to whip my hair into a tussled mess carries a whisper of his name.”

honestly when i think about it pelinal is the most shocking thing to morihaus. for all his apparent bullishness he rarely like, underestimates opponents, or is overconfident going into a situation, but pelinal acts without thought very often, and morihaus really doesn’t “get” his uncle as much as he might have you believe. i think his conversation with pelinal about his growing love with perrif came as a surprise to morihaus, no matter how poetic and rehearsed his response may have been recorded. morihaus is loyal to the end, he’s an unwavering force of energy devoted to helping alessia realize her vision for her people and is deeply devoted to her. he sort of has people he trusts and is ride or die for and then everyone else he regards with friendliness or antagonism-- i don’t see him as being able to be manipulated unless it was one of these people he knows he can trust (and i dont think that ever really happens.) if you are on morihaus’s side you can trust him for sure, and even if you’re not it’s not like he’s gonna LIE to you before goring you with his giant fuckoff horns, he’s going to say “i’m gonna kill you” and you know what, you can trust him on that
