Bracket G Round 1

Poll 14

Claire Saltzman & Valerie Astaire & Aine Simons (@snazzy-cici) vs. Candid (@halemerry)

411. Claire Saltzman & Valerie Astaire & Aine Simons (@snazzy-cici)

She/they, she/her, she/her

They are girlfriends!!! Aine is tall and a little stupid and has the “legs too long” vibe that puppies have. She’s down to earth and chaotic and rambles all the time and loves her girlfriends more than anything in the world. Valerie is solution oriented and quiet and so, so smart. Their dynamic is best described as dog and cat, I think, except if a dog was a cat & if a cat was a dog… if that makes any sense. Claire leaves her boyfriend to join their polycule and then Valerie commits murder on aforementioned boyfriend, because, girlboss. Claire is shy and bookish and loves to laugh and just :))) Yeah :)))) Gay rights :)))))))

Valerie: Ginger. Freckles. Kind green eyes. Double eyelashes. Long waves. Ana Saia vibes.

Claire: Space buns. Light brown hair. Shaky smile. Wearer of sparkly eye shadow and many, many hair clips.

Aine: Bangs & bob. Black hair. Chaos gremlin. Colourful makeup & false eyelashes. Yeah.

412. Candid (@halemerry)

he/him

Candid is a major NPC from a game of Blades in the Dark that's been running for nearly two years now. He's a former rich heir to an ancient family who ran away from home a gave up his name to a Nameless trickster god, becoming her Paladin in the process. While fighting a war along side a collection of other Paladins, he was put in a stasis where he mysteriously wound up being torn to pieces. One of these pieces was eventually found by a man named Dante, who attuned to Candid and wound up metaphysically attaching them together. They eventually fell in love across this connection and, when Candid was nearly killed, Dante to instead managed to turn Candid into a god himself. He's now the god of broken things who's domain is centered around ideas of imperfections being beautiful and that healing doesn't always mean returning to your former state. But also he's a huge dork with rampant adhd and a tendency for mischief.

Candid is a trans man in his early 30s with wavy dark purple hair, light purple eyes, and a body full of freckles. He's average sized and dresses like someone way too into Final Fantasy/Dragon Age/Star Wars. He carries himself very casually and doesn't know how chairs work. While he typically forgoes a prosthetic, he does have a divine relic name Dolos that sometimes functions as one made from a rare substance called eider scales.
