niwa one-liner starter call .

[terroreigns]

[This is your official invitation to send asks to the side muses of the Shadow Troupe, as well as the Deathlords from the Gaudium era ;) In the case of dead characters, they will default to the most recent time they were alive. If you feel up to it, you may also send asks to the previous incarnation of Chaos, the Earl Tyrant. Been wanting to develop the gang a bit more but my energy levels and brainspace were shitty. I'm also open to asks turning to threads if they catch my attention in that way + if the other wishes to continue off them. :) ]

[Obligatory warning for dark themes as the vast majority of Chaos-affiliated muses are horrid people and their behavior will reflect that fact. The list of muses below:]

Primary muse:

Anarchy, Second Visage [OC]

Gaudium era:

Tyrant, First Visage [canon]

Fungus, Last General of Mycelidos [canon]

Pist Shaz XI, Self-Proclaimed Lord of the Seas [canon]

Shadow Troupe era:

Herba, Lady of the Wicked Vines [canon]

Oscha, Dread Jester [canon]

Xel Ort V, Bolt of the Deep Blue [OC]

Yarukiel, Radio Tower Demon* [canon/OC]

Mad Hatter, Mind of Omega [OC]

[*Yaru is mentally an animal, so asking it will lead nowhere.]

Choosing to write a muse that is insanely intelligent while you yourself are nothing but a wet chicken mcnugget is truly a wild ride of pretending to be smart while not having a single clue what you're even talking about.

Me: -drawing rotb mirage- I’ll just do a bust to get a feel for the design

Nobody: ...

Me: ... but what if I do a full body as well

ᴛʜᴇ ᴜɴɪᴠᴇʀsᴇ ᴊᴜsᴛ ʟᴏᴠᴇs ᴘʀᴏᴠɪɴɢ ᴍᴇ ᴡʀᴏɴɢ, ᴅᴏᴇsɴ’ᴛ ɪᴛ? whoops! hi guys this is helia again ;u; back here to introduce to you all HWA YUL .

  : ̗̀➛   thirty-one years young , a firebender and lightningbenderfrom the noble house of hwa. many know them to be unethical . how unfortunate , truly … i’ve always found them to be resourceful . they oft fulfill the duties of a gamemaster, though i expect them to be present at the 25th agni kai as a spectator . well , you know how every storyteller bends the tale they tell . 

please see the below for his tldr, (his background and behind the scenes are pretty dark but interaction wise he won't really be?)

tw: for the life of me i cant think of the proper tag but it's kind of dark. nothing explicitly written but the concept and idea

BACKGROUND

yul has two very extreme reputations within the community and society depending on where one falls. some regard his ability to continue being a gamemaster after the deaths of his sibling as chilling in an enticing way. others regard his choice to continue administering games as a wretched betrayal to the family that had opened their arms to adopt him as their own considering his circumstances

yul had been adopted by the hwa family out of sentiment and friendship (from the former second lady) following the mysterious death of his parents, who had served the hwa family for a majority of their life

however, during his 18th birthday, yul faces the true reality that he's nothing more than a surrogate for the hwa family's other children to serve as a tribute

before he turns 21 for the year the agni kai is meant to be hosted, he does everything in his power to find a way out of being forced to become a tribute. somehow, he manages to get taken under the wing of a well known gamemaster and that's when the trajectory of his life begins to change

at 21, yul is saved from the agni kai after being chosen to join the gamemasters and his sibling is then forced to become the hwa family's tribute instead. on one hand, being a gamemaster is the one way that yul is able to continue saving himself from becoming a tribute. on the other, yul is forced to orchestrate the conditions in which his siblings will die in for each tournament that follows.

etc. uses hwa yul and yul interchangeably ( the latter more with those he's close with )

PERSONALITY

the type that people love to hate and hate to love

it's been ten years that yul has been in the field of working as a game master. he's perfected the front he puts on to the world as a known gamemaster. confident and unbothered.

yul's nonchalance and the weight of truth in everything about his life may rub people the wrong way. this isn't something he does directly or on purpose to egg people on. (it's really just a defense mechanism atp to not breakdown).

pretty tortured actually internally. there's literally no one else on the whole wide world that yul hates more than himself and it's hard living with his conscience. but his goal has always been to live to see another day, so he makes do.

PLOTS

few people know that yul has suffered from harsh sleeping conditions. even fewer know that it's the endless deaths he's caused that haunt him in his dreams every night — especially those of his siblings. tell me, how do you put together a broken man ? ( someone very close )

people don't know the things that yul does behind the scenes to pay tribute to lost ones. he does a lot of unknown things in anonymity. it should be enough for him, but it isn't. so when you curse him and beat him, he lets you. ( someone in pain )

it's rare for yul to let his guard down. but under the influence of the moon and sweet wine, yul lets slip the insinuation that his life isn't as grand as it seems. his standing with the hwa family only remains because lord hwa hopes he'll be chained to his dirty deeds for the rest of his life. ( maybe a stranger )

people who blame him for the deaths of their siblings/family members

tributes/mentors? ( how do you feel about him? )

friends (maybe those who just try to get on his good side to get an in on the tournament, or actual genuine ones?)

as  the  son  of  the  most  important  person  in  panem,  julius  was  used  to  people  not  showing  him  their  real  faces  —  for  as  far  as  real  faces  were  even  a  thing  in  the  capitol.  rarely  did  he  meet  anyone  who  wasn't  actively  trying  to  get  or  stay  on  his  good  side  and  it  was  annoying  most  of  the  time.  it  caused  the  dark-haired  male  to  push  people's  buttons  to  see  just  how  far  he  could  go  until  they  finally  broke  the  facade.  it  rarely  happened  which  proved  just  how  impactful  his  last  name  was.  there  was  one  person,  however,  who  he  had  never  needed  to  try  for.  they  seemed  to  hate  him  by  default  and  were  possibly  the  only  person  in  this  country  to  dare  show  it.  idiotic,  if  it  wasn't  so  incredibly  fascinating  to  him.  "if  it  isn't  my  favourite  capitol  citizen."  julius  greeted  them  with  a  smile.  he  was  out  for  a  late  brunch.  the  restaurant  he  had  picked  was  the  one  with  the  most  breathtaking  view  out  of  all  of  them,  but  with  the  headache  from  his  hangover,  he  regretted  his  choice  having  to  bear  the  bright  light.  "what  a  great  opportunity  to  have  a  meal  together.  just  the  two  of  us."

* ˚ ✦ I know it's super duper early, and so many probably aren't even up for work or anything but I wanted to apologize for the constantly delay in my replies

Every single one I have is in drafts — I've just been having some slight health issues and work keeps exhausting me.

I'm off tomorrow so I can likely take the time after work today to buckle down for real because I really want to get to them.

Thank you for understanding and please remember to take care of yourself ~!

              BLOWS A KISS —

[monogatcri]

i've been chuckling at the mental image of someone being like, "god!" or some variation of it when getting startled by niwa and he just looks them dead in the eye and responds like, "no, just niwa."

FOUND IN CHARLIE'S PURSE:

a christmas card from the Brandt family, with the following note inside:

Hi Lottie girl! Was hoping we'd get to see you for a bit after Christmas but your dad told me you're going on some kind of school trip. Your little sisters were so looking forward to it. I've told them so much about you. I sent you a new ballet leotard in the mail as a Christmas gift, I hope you're still dancing! It feels like just yesterday I was at your recital. Could that really be ten years ago?

You're all grown up now. It's time to be an adult and stop sulking about whatever perceived injustice you feel was done to you in your childhood. I have done everything I possibly could to be a good mother and you should consider your part in this instead of constantly making yourself the victim. Richard and I will be expecting you for a long weekend before the summer, and I will be expecting you to behave. Do not disappoint me, Charlotte.

Lots of love,

Mom
