PLAYER

CONTACT: PM; [plurk.com profile] balsamandash

ACTIVE TIMES/PACE: Central Time; irregular hours. I have several health issues, and some days I can't tag at all. If I haven't tagged back in a while and you want to make sure I got the tag or am still planning to return it, feel free to poke me.

STYLE: No preference between brackets or prose; prefer present tense, but will match past. I sometimes have trouble keeping up with text threads for long unless they switch to in-person.

OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: No gore in picture prompts, no graphic descriptions of gore in tags; no eye trauma; no insects.


OUT OF CHARACTER

BACKTAGS/SLOWTIME: (there is no "too old")
ASSUMED CR: (pms are open for discussion)
MULTIPLE THREADS:
FAKE GAME SETTING/UNIVERSE CLASHES:

NOT INTERESTED IN: Going fully mundane with her history. I would be willing to take her out of the school setting, but I'm only interested in playing her with some kind of supernatural-caused tragedy as a driving cause, even if it's not necessarily fae.


IN CHARACTER

PHYSICAL AFFECTION:
Aurora's pretty touchy herself, and will be inclined to just lean on people once she likes them, if they're okay with it.

PHYSICAL VIOLENCE:
She's trained to fight fae and has her sword with her at any time it's at all feasible to do so, which includes basically all times on campus, so it's pretty dangerous for anyone she's fighting, but she's really not inclined to hurt anyone who isn't involved with the Hunt or trying to hurt people in front of her.

MINDREADING/PSYCHIC ABILITIES:
No blocks, no walls, fully human. She's a scattered person who kind of manages to come off as having it all together for work hours; there's a constant running list of things she meant to do in the back of her head. Cares, a lot, and deeply, about people and about protecting students, but tends to get fully focused on her grief and rage whenever the Hunt comes up in front of her and push everything else to the background.

MEDICAL INFORMATION: Some scars from learning to fight or dealing with the fae, but pretty healthy otherwise.

OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: Aurora's prey is fae hounds, and particularly the Wild Hunt, and she will focus on trying to take them down to the exclusion of all other things if they're around or come up. Not a huge fan of dogs in general, either. She doesn't like to talk about her sister, and will fight people to protect her students, but those are less knee-jerk and she can think through them a little bit better if it comes up.


RELATIONSHIPS

PLATONIC:
She's very open to talking to people, has a lot of casual friends and is always happy to make more or form deeper friendships. She's also got a very older-sisterly air to her, and will happily play that role to people as long as nobody actually draws attention to the fact that she's doing it, at which point the awkwardness around her grief will kick in.

NEGATIVE:
She can be stubborn and single-minded, and has accidentally screwed people over in her quest for revenge before. Also, despite the fact that she's willing to give them a chance, non-humans do kind of make her wary.

COWORKERS/STUDENTS/ETC:
Please feel free to assume CR other people into working at the same school with her, attending it, hanging out on the grounds as a fae thing, whatever! Aurora is very unlikely to leave her given school until she's succeeded in her hunt, if then, because she's worried she may begin to forget if she does, so they'll be working/attending/lurking at a campus that backs onto the woods and has a whole lot of supernatural fae shit going on, but neither the MOTW mechanics or Elsewhere trappings need to be followed closer than that for threading purposes.

SHIPPING:
She's kind of focused on work and her hunt, so she's unlikely to go into anything intended to start a romance, but she's not necessarily closed off to the possibility, either. That said, she's not much for casual dating, and unlikely to get involved with anyone who isn't aware of the supernatural stuff around her.


IDEAS AND WANTS

🗡 CR with people she wants to protect. Especially if this somehow leads to her having to chose between protecting them and going after her prey.

🗡 She will do some shady, regretful things if offered info or help in her quest, and I'd love to see that cause trouble, or get her taken advantage of by someone.

🗡 Meeting nonhumans who are not dangerous or at least not threatening, or anything else that might make her conflicted about her instinctive mistrust of nonhumans.

🗡 Rescuing people from the fae: changelings, people who got caught in the Wild Hunt, whatever other scenario you can put people in for her to save them.

🗡 Friendships/romances on campus. Other admins, professors, and students (over 18) are all welcome.
