Hiiies can we get an introduction of the main characters & their goal pls

Im planning to make like . proper things for this . like with drawn refs and all, but for now a textpost will have to suffice . these'll be more baseline too: RINU YOSHIOKA: -She is the leader of the group, and an adventurer -Her main weapon is a big axe [that she decorated with charms n stuff] -28, she/her, transfem, aroace -Autism, bpd -Shes from Wonderland -Shes loud, energetic, chaotic and very happy most of the time . she loves her friends and shes always been curious to explore the world, so naturally she ended up being an adventurer . shes an extremely skilled fighter as well . her and her team are regarded as heroes since most of the exploration work also involves your typical having-to-kill-monsters-and-shit . people think shes stupid at first but shes actually incredibly smart, and very used to being infantilized [she uses it to commit to the bit and act dumb sometimes for the sake of The Bit] . in her teenage years, she spent her life locked up in her bedroom, never going anywhere and usually just sleeping, she absolutely hates doing that now [leading her to have a bit of insomnia] . shes very brave too! though her biggest fear is porcelain dolls, no one really knows why . she looves cute stuff too . shes the most emotionally mature out of the group, and helps them with their feelings, even though she is TERRIBLE at dealing with hers . -Killed a dragon once while she was drunk on 8 bottles of beer btw -shes quite short, around 5'5 -Her younger sister is Mayu Yoshioka -Being a regular citizen of Wonderland, she's one of the rare ones that have magic! she has hope magic [basically gains power from the hope of the people around her, can feel people's hope, and use it in the form of specific spells and energy beams . by hopes of everyone i mean it btw . even dead people .] but usually just uses her axe for stuff . she also has healing magic . shes a very good magical medic, people think shed be a good nurse . DOC: -They're an expert mage -Their main weapon is their staff -28, they/them, nonbinary, aroace -Autism, bpd -Theyre from Asteria -They're the most level headed out of the group, usually being the one to make rational choices when no one else does . they have a bit of social anxiety tho so public speaking really isnt their thing . theyre a massive perfectionist, wanting to perfect their magic skills to the utmost, and become one of the greatest Asterian mages of all time . They also like to explore, partially in hopes that it'll help them with their abilities and such . theyve been quite lonely their entire life, so now that the have a whole group of friends to travel with, they can finally live a bit better . that being said their perfectionism leads them to overwork a LOT, which intern makes them very tired usually . and kinda grouchy . Very bad at emotions i fear -Their blue skin is a birth defect, it doesnt do anything besides just Be Blue, but they get looks from people for it sometimes [not that they care . totally not/sarc] -shorter than rinu, 5'4 -they hate their family, their father was mostly absent while their mother was overbearing and pushed them way too much, leading them to uh . end up like this . -They have a very deep fascination with water and marine biology in particular, they aim to especially master water magic . they visit the water bodies around Asteria and Wonderland a lot NINA: -She's an inventor and an alchemist -Her main weapon is well . whatever inventions of hers she has on hand . tend to be medieval type firearms and her warhammer tho . also has a pair of fake wings that she uses sometimes -27, she/they/it, pangender fem, lesbian . Dating heath . -bpd + autism [through peer reviews] -Shes from the outskirts of Wonderland

-at first she seems polite and well mannered, which she certainly is, but thats kind of all people know her for besides her inventions and alchemy . Shes the second most level headed but tends to zone out a LOT to think about other things . Do NOT bring her to a cave bc she WILL space out and run off to collect rocks for her newest alchemy experiment . Shes also more prone to danger bc of this i.e. all the times she almost touched fire by accident before heath saved her . Not only does she want recognition for her craft, she also wants to travel around the world to further her inventions and alchemy, similarly to doc [they get along bc of this] . Despite her general friendliness and polite attitude, shes actually quite distrusting of most people . It took her a very long time [arc 2] to properly trust doc and rinu . The only person she trusted fully was heath and now doc and rinu too . She has a complicated relationship to her gender as well . She was born and raised in a religious cult [fun fact: two more characters in the au were also apart of this cult!!] that basically engrained into her head that inventing and alchemy was "impure" for her and "not feminine enough", and she was constantly pressured to present fem and look pretty . She barely had any friends . She managed to sneak an invention or two sometimes but mostly she didnt have anything within her interest to do . The cult was horrendously abusive obviously, and the ideas from it that were pushed onto her still affect her now . She apologizes way too much and is afraid to be dependent on people in fear of being lied to like she was her entire life in the cult . Everything of course changes when her family takes her to heaths hometown [i dont have a name for it yet </3] and she meets well . Heath . They get off EXTREMELY well for the time they see each other, and at that point they were each others only friends . And luckily, nina gets to visit his hometown quite a few times as theres cult relations there!! And well . When nina finally escapes at the age of around 19 or 20, heath just so happens to be the only person she knows outside the cult . She takes a gruelling journey to heaths hometown mostly by foot and eventually finds her shop . Heath, of course is very surprised and extremely concerned, and agrees to let them live in her home . They grow accustomed to each other as nina stays there for id say an year or two, eventually gaining enough crystals [money equivalent . Basic ik </3] to bounce back up and but her own home . And in that time the two dense dumbasses realize both of them have a crush on each other . It took them months for heath to finally confess to her and yeah . Nina and heath do live apart [mostly . Until they join the main gang] but they visit each other frequently . And years later when theyre both 27 is when the story starts .

-her goggles have a bow sown onto either side of them . She invented that . Some people think its stupid but she thinks it looks cute [i agree nina o7]

-around 5'3 to 5'4 . Insane height difference with heath LOL

-other than alchemy and inventing stuff, her other hobby is collecting or sometimes making and planning out ornate teacups!!

-she actually tends to snap quite a bit . I mean she always tries to be polite about it but she has Anger . Yk . She can also go a bit insane when handed crossbows or any type of medieval firearm .

HEATH:

-shes a travelling merchant and a famous author

-the place shes from is basically just Desert Furry Town . Shes a fox furry with sand/ground magic [making pillars from the ground, summoning sandstorms when theres sand around, manipulating rocks and dirt etc etc]

-27, he/she, transfem lesbian . Dating nina .

-bpd [maybe inattentive type adhd too]

-she has a pet starfox!! [fox with cosmic powers] his names astra and hes pretty important to the story!! [we love astra here]

-heath is chill . Very very tired . Really nice and friendly, being a merchant and all . But just really apathetic . She also uses a large vocabulary since shes an author . While she is level headed shes very open to her fair share of bits, sarcastic quips and teasing people . Or bullying doc LMAO . As a child she was quite literally the opposite of this though . She was excitable and energetic and had her head in the clouds, always dreaming up a story . Her parents were neglectful and hated her [they were on the brink of a divorce and thought he was a burden on them] . This caused heaths happiness to largely mellow out over the years . this was paired with the fact that she largely had no friends, until she met nine . But im not re-explaining allat again . Under her parents demand she became a merchant and did, indeed enjoy it . Meeting new people across lands was actually fun, shes kind of like those bartenders that know everyones secrets . She also pursued her dream of writing which went extremely well . However she always faced a lot of slack for her identity over the years . At first it was being too hyperactive, but now it was even more personal . People were uncomfortable with her since shes trans openly so, whilst also not fitting any female gender norms [stubble, flat chest, broad shoulders, fem-ish but deep voice] . As a result people who dont know her tend to be disgusted of her or scared of her and treat her like an alien . Heath tries not to let that bother her but it very much does [as seen in her breakdown in arc 1] . This is paired with her overworking herself constantly to be the perfect writer so that people care more about that than how she presents [and thus leave him the fuck alone] . Shes grown to be apathetic as a coping mechanism, and it comes to her detriment quite a lot . She doesnt think nor feels like she belongs anywhere, and it took her a while to not constantly other herself from her friends . Her awful sleep schedule also just makes her kind of cranky but she supresses it . Of course, she has a deep love and care for nina, someone who understood her and never judged him for anything . This is also why she argues and bickers with doc so much, since shes so apathetic and worried about herself as a person [not out of a big ego but out of anxiety] while doc tries to focus constantly only on work, thinking its the only thing that matters . Doc ia also just more stuck up than heath althought theyre just as tired as each other .

-shes your local testosterone and estrogen dealer . Well not literally since you transition through potions and stuff here but she does sell them

-she travels the world to find inspiration to write about and pick up nicknacks to sell . Shes very good at negotiating and bargaining .

-mf is like 5'11 to 6'0 . She constantly has to bend down when theyre checking the map together LOL

-she loves gardening, especially growing tea!! Shes a bit addicted to it too i fear

-heath loves scheming and making Evil [/silly] plans with rinu . Stupid fucking goobers/pos

Thats about it!! Please feel free to ask questions n stuff ^_^

You don't have to answer if you think it'll spoil anything, but hypothetically, what would be the fallout if Lady Lannister died during Blood and Cheese?

hi love!!! sorry it took me so long to respond to this but it has been haunting my every waking thought TRUST

so assuming that everything else happens the exact same (lady lannister doesn’t affect anything at all with her added presence) and she gets the axe during blood and cheese, the answer is: aemond does not take it well

the longer answer is he really doesn’t take it well

in the immediate aftermath, he’s alarmingly possessive of her body. he doesn’t let the silent sisters do their ceremonies, he doesn’t let anyone near her. alicent tries but he ignores her. he just sits and holds her, refusing to come to terms with it. the only person who can pull him out is surprisingly aegon.

and aegon promises him revenge.

all the ratcatchers in the red keep are fed to vhagar. aemond personally decapitates all of lady lannister’s personal guards and mounts their heads in the training barracks as a reminder of the cost of failure. if blood is captured like in canon, no one knows what aemond does in the dungeons of the red keep and all anyone knows is that when blood finally dies and his head is placed on the city gates, it’s not even recognizable as a human anymore

he razes way more than just the riverlands. if a house has even the slightest hint of sympathies towards rhaenyra, he’s burning down their lands without question. hundreds of years in the future, there are houses that were completely extinguished because their lands never recovered and they couldn’t survive

eventually he’s turning his gaze onto rhaenyra herself. while daemon is inarguably the mastermind of blood and cheese, rhaenyra is the figurehead. it was done in the name of her son, after all. otto definitely has his hands in this decision too - he’s well aware that rhaenyra may have not even agreed with blood and cheese but it’s in their best interest that aemond believe she does. daemon could even try his “meet me at the god’s eye if you’re not pussy” but in this world, aemond doesn’t give a flying fuck. he wants rhaenyra’s head first.

if he gets ahold of rhaenyra, rip the realm’s delight. rip her kids. if he survives this, he’s peacing the fuck out and pulling a nettles. he doesn’t care about any of it.

but it’s way more likely he’s getting killed during all of this. he’s going to have a suicidal streak the size of vhagar.

all of this gets doubled if they had kids and the kids were harmed or killed during blood and cheese btw.

but yea, in pawn verse, there is no aemond without lady lannister. he’s going down swinging.

Ok, so, originally this was gonna just be a million fuckin questions, and it'll prooooobably turn into one of those question chains from several months ago. BUT to start I think I can do just like, three. First, tell me ALL about the area in Norway where Jelani was growin up, absolutely anything and everything you can think of about it. Secondly, tell me ALL about babby Jelani! Again just anything and everything you can think of! Lastly, how exactly do those magic weapons work? :o Like, once they're made can anyone grab them? Can he only have one at a time? Stuff like that! Basically just use this as a chance to talk about all those things! :3

❤️❤️❤️

So Jelani was born and raised near what is known as Hammerfest today (woohoo subarctic climate!). Honestly he’s been everywhere and just about seen everything but nothing compares to when he was growing up in that area and watching the Aurora Borealis with family and friends in a comfortable silence while just taking it all in, ya know? Being born in 870 CE meant there was no light pollution so every night the sky always lit up and the stars were so shiny and there were millions and millions of them which was absolutely insane to see and had a lot of significance because of his mom’s culture and their relationship to the stars.

They were close to the coast so there was a lot of fishing and sailing. He was also partial to that area because it was close to the sea and close enough to the mountains where it felt like a happy in between. He’s not a fan of being too far from some source of water. That place was perfect as he could see all kinds of sea dwelling animals like whales and seals, squids though he’s not a fan, he’s kind of scared of squid especially the really big ones he saw every once in a while. He especially liked puffins as a kid since he thought they were kinda silly. Inland he saw his fair share of reindeer, foxes, bears, wolves and otters which he completely fell in love with and still loves as an adult. Show him pictures or videos of otters and he’ll melt, if he sees one irl he’ll practically die from the amount of cute. There were also the more supernatural creatures though he mostly grew up around a lot of werewolves.

Oh! And sure, he’s not a big fan of the sun but even he has to admit that the midnight sun is pretty impressive and beautiful in its own right. It was gorgeous to see it and he did enjoy walking around in the middle of the night and still see the sun out.

Also, despite the location, he was exposed to a lot of different people as the village was flagged as a safe area which saw a ton of traders and all were welcome regardless of who you were or if you were human or non-human. He saw everything and interacted with all sorts of people from the local Sámi People, Middle Eastern, Asian and even other African people. And after his mom found out her family were still alive and well they’d also visit each other when they could. Honestly, his upbringing was kinda fairy tale like.

______________________________________________________________

qasdxcfgbhn well, Jela as a little kid was always hanging around his parents, grandparents and especially his brother. Since Loke’s 13 years older than him Loke often watched him and played with him a lot, he wasn’t even asked to he just did it because baby brother. Like the instant Lo first saw him it was like love at first sight type of shit. He learned to speak clearly very early on which surprised everyone at how clear and structured his speech was for a kid so young and then they learned he was a very fast learner and really smart and was always curious and asking tons of questions.

Even since he was little he really loved animals so he was always seen chasing after them or somehow petting them and playing with them. Learned to ride and care for horses pretty fast and when he got his own it was like fireworks went off in his head. Even in present day he sees a horse and it’s like instant childhood memories flooding him. Btw his first horse was a mare he named Dagny, just like his ball python in modern times lol, it was a Fjord with a grey coat and a two tone mane and he loved her to bits. Aside from that there was the family dog named River because she loved to swim. He also liked cats but they didn’t have a cat because Loke was scared of them and Sanaa (for different reasons related to another creature) wasn’t fond of them. They don’t hate cats but they’d rather just keep ‘em at arm’s length.

Then teen Jelani who was...I don’t wanna use the word difficult because he wasn’t but let’s just say different for lack of a better word. It was around this time that he was realizing he wasn’t like his family and it actually hurt ‘im a lot. Especially since his mom was an arcane berserker and it was like a huge deal so they all thought he was gonna be one too. So in come the feelings of alienation and the doubts and the semi angst and the moodiness. He was never disrespectful to anyone but he was often moody and often felt down. Around this time he was also learning he had some unique abilities of his own that no one else had and since no one else had them he learned to control them but not without incidents. Not to mention that since he was very little he could see and hear and talk to things that no one else could really see. Some were friendly and others weren’t. Mix in the regular hormonal shit teenagers go through during puberty and it made for a bit of a mess. This kind of “weakened” him and his old self (which he nor anyone else knew of) was starting to rear in and it was kind of scary. He was actually fluctuating between his old personality which was chaotic af and his present self and both seemed to clash a lot. Once this started happening the migraine attacks and the nosebleeds began as well as the sleep paralysis, night terrors, insomnia and the nyctophobia and they all seemed to hit him really hard and suddenly. So all of that mixed in made the ages of 13 through 17 really, really fucking messy.

But family and friends were with him through it all and at 17 and a half he chilled out and learned to control himself and managed to suppress his old self. He’d learned to use and handle his abilities responsibly, still felt a little out of place but his family was sure to always let ‘im know they loved him no matter what and his grandfather especially let him know that his differences weren’t a bad thing and that they made ‘im special. By 18 he was back to his cheerful old self though sometimes he still felt bad about being different but didn’t let it get him down. However, he now had to cope with migraine attacks, night terrors, nyctophobia, random nosebleeds, insomnia and sleep paralysis which he still has even in present day.

Okay so berserkers are non-humans that have the ability to summon powerful weapons and very sturdy armor from nothing thin air. The armor can take a beating but if they get targeted by a barrage of attacks the armor can break and they’d have to summon the armor again but there’s a cool down of about half an hour so it’s better to hang on to the armor even if broken or get your ass to safety. The weapons don’t break though. Oh and if an armor broke and they summon it again it’ll show up as good as new. Berserkers can summon up to two different weapons so which ones they summon depends on the person’s taste and comfort level.

These weapons can be summoned and dematerialized at will and have no cool down. Anyone can grab them if the berserker it belongs to doesn’t mind though why would a berserker use another one’s weapon unless they wanna be offensive and kill ‘em with their own weapon? It’s not offensive, more like yikes.

Now, since Jelani isn’t a berserker he managed to figure out a way to mimic berserkers’ ability to summon a weapon from thin air though unlike grown up berserkers he isn’t limited to just two types of weapons. For example Loke is able to summon a two headed axe and a bow, nothing more nothing less. Jelani can summon whatever he wants as he can manipulate the shape. His mom’s tribe are partial to glaives so he mainly uses a glaive. His weapons however are made of an unknown material that’s insanely hard and impossible to even crack. His weapons can’t be wielded by anyone other than himself bc as soon as someone else touches them they dematrerialize. It also looks weird, like it’s so dark it swallows all light and no light bounces off of it. He can’t summon armor though so that’s where the blacksmith comes in. His uncle Jørgen made his look like his dad’s and his mom’s.
