BIOGRAPHY.

VIOLENCE TW

Nadira is a host that was created as a means to spy on the Gestalt Bureau's rivals. She was one of the company's darling hummingbirds, flittering from one CEO's arm to the next, all in an attempt to get them to lower their defenses and steal any secrets that may help the bureau stay on top. She was programmed to be charming but demure, the classic wide-eyed girl in awe of the powerful figures around her, and she adored the programming she was given.

Her destiny shifted during her last mission. The figure she targeted was someone who was powerful and actively opposed the Gestalt Bureau and everything it stood for. She was meant to simply do reconnaissance during her mission and establish a connection with the target, but during her evening, she learned information she wasn't supposed to know. This made her a liability, and unbeknownst to her, someone had been hired to track her down and take care of the "loose ends".

One evening, as she was walking home from the Bureau, she encountered the individual hired by her target. The individual overpowered her and ended up erasing the information she learned regarding her target, as well as most of her memories of her current life. When she awoke, she was alone in an alley with no name, no memories, and no idea what to do next.

Luckily, she was soon found by MALCOLM HAYES and brought to the MATA HARIS. The group took her in with open arms, and the fear she felt in that alleyway soon melted away. Being with the Mata Haris made her feel safe, and it allowed her to recover and begin to plan for the future.

With a newfound confidence and a job that allows her access to a wide variety of people, she began to believe she could learn about her past and what happened to her and use that information to move forward in life. The only question is: in a city as large as Tokyo, where does she begin?

nadira ( for muse name ask meme ) !

N: Are they clumsy and/or prone to accidents? 

nadira looks like she should be graceful , but is actually very clumsy . she usually always has at least one bruise on her leg or hip just from bumping into a door or the end of the couch too many times . a bitch can walk in heels though , so she has that going for her .

A: Who are their exes? Do they still keep in touch?

an ex for each A ! she dated judas for six-ish ( i think dkfjldsfj ) months when she first moved to irving . they’re not in touch because she wants to be , but they cross paths in town . unluckily , she is also good friends with his roommate beau , so seeing him around is inevitable . @jackfr0sted @melichryscs

D: What time does their day usually start?

out of a lifelong habit , she’s still an early riser , but she doesn’t actually need to get out of bed these days . sometimes , she sets a routine for herself and starts her day at 7 am . other days , she can’t be bothered . ( if i said otherwise in a previous hc ask , no i didn’t )

I: In general, are they organized or messy? 

organized af . in nadira’s mind , everything has a home and must be returned to its place . her life was often so chaotic that she couldn’t live with it physically around her , too .

R: When’s the last time they had a birthday party? 

her 24th birthday . nadira used to throw an extravagant party every year , both as an actual birthday celebration and an excuse to network and treat anybody who was somebody in the fashion industry . she hasn’t thrown one since -- she actually almost forgot her 25th birthday because taking care of her dad consumed her , and she was in no mood to celebrate her 26th birthday , just a month after losing him .  ( i did not double check the timeline with my intro ... i think this is right but .. who knows )

A: Who are their exes? Do they still keep in touch?

spencer is her first love , back when their lives overlapped from their respective careers . fashion and spencer . that was all she needed . unplanned , they both ended up in irving post-breakup . she managed to avoid him for quite some time , but they recently ran into each other and are working on making amends . @solitvdcs

Wip Intro - Safe House

Safe House

Safe House has looked like a lot of different things through the years, but it seems like it’s settled into its final form now - a new adult contemporary about a group of queer kids helping each other heal. Everyone is gay, half are trans, there's a lot of paganism going on, and they all live in one (rather small) house together. It’s a journey from Samhain to Litha along the wheel of the year (October to June) and how they grow through the seasons. This is one of my softer and more domestic stories, and even though I usually write fantasy this is strictly a contemporary (though there’s still magic, just the real-life pagan kind of magic :)

I’m gonna try and make a super messy draft zero of this for camp nano coming up, because every year I’m like I don’t have time for nano and then it’s two days away and they email me like “are you ready???” and I’m like, well, I guess I am now.

Characters

Mick Owens - goes from living out of his car to moving in with his cousin, Dinah, who he hasn’t seen for two years. Works as a ride-share driver and an online sex worker. Trans and saving for top surgery, because he desperately needs it to help his worsening depression. Very gay and very much not ready for a romantic relationship atm. Family, on the other hand...that he could use.

Dinah Torrence-Owens - Mick’s cousin. Currently in grad school and working on the side, she really just wants to start a big gay family with her long-term girlfriend, Nadira - but she's scared of all that that entails. Her determined, strong spirit is a great gift but can sometimes lead her into trying to fix people, and Mick is not someone who wants to be fixed. She’s a struggling witch but has a very close relationship with the tarot, and the Sun is her spirit card.

Nadira Shepard - Nadira is trying to be the perfect trans person, but it’s getting exhausting. She wants to be successful to please her parents, who have been so good to her all through her transition, but she’s graduated college and only has a shitty retail job and dreams of publishing her poetry to speak of. On the other hand, she’s a black, gay, trans woman and as she sees it, her safety depends on being able to be the perfect, feminine, passing woman. But there has to be more to life than that.

Vee Sandoval - a little goth weirdo, people don’t always see her in the house and they don’t totally know what she does for work, but she seems to be doing fine for herself. She went to a women's college with Dinah for undergrad, and has contributed one black cat to the house that everyone complains about but are secretly grateful for. She dresses like a witch but actually is not one. She has strange wisdom.

So yeah! That’s what I’ve got for now. We’ll see what happens over camp nano, and I’m working on fanfic at the same time, but Safe House is my primary original work in progress at the moment. If it works as a finished story, I fully intend to self-publish it, as my goal is to become an indie writer. If you want to be added to the tag list, please let me know and I’ll love you forever!

First Post - Intro & Characters

I had the impulse to start blogging about my Pathfinder 2e game, because it's been a lot of fun and I'm starting to get to the point where I need to rubber duck at someone, anyone, even the void, to keep my scheming straight. If you're reading this I hope it's entertaining!

I am using the D&D 5e adventure Out of the Abyss as a starting point. It's all about the players fighting their way out of the underdark which, by some freak accident, is full of rampaging demon lords. However, I've changed so much, added so much homebrew world building, and patchworked in so much dungeon magazine material that it's barely recognizable.

Most notably, there's a penultimate scheme with Zuggtmoy, demon queen of fungi, that knocked my socks off so hard that I decided to expand it and make her the big bad of the entire adventure instead of the big monster mash that the original culminates towards. I love the idea of tricking all the other demon lords to brawl for supremecy but I love Zuggtmoy and her bullshit even more!

I thought to kick this blog off, I’d give you a rundown on the stars of the show, my player characters. Next post I’ll start getting caught up on the plot leading up to this point, and after that I’ll try and keep session logs.

Let’s dive in!

Allywick Bramblesnoot: (Gnome Druid) Normally gifted with eternal life, this gnome was robbed of her natural inheritance by a cruel sorcerer who stole her away from her family at a young age. Experiments left her extraordinarily gifted with magic, but at the cost of a greatly reduced lifespan, only having 5 years left to live. After the sorcerer concluded his experiments, he left Allywick to the wilds, assuming she would quickly die. Instead, she found her way to a Druidic circle through careful mapping of her surroundings and a kinship with the animals around her. She now eagerly maps uncharted territories, hoping to see all of the world before she dies, and maybe to be reunited with her family.

Asmoryn Starshaddow: (Elven Ranger) Asmoryn's parents defended the city from unusual threats from the wilderness. They kept an eye on goblin and orc movements, but they specialized in tracking and killing honest-to-gods monsters. Although Asmoryn's twin sister never took to the trade, Asmoryn trained hard with her parents so that she could become a monster hunter like they were. Despite a terrible accident claiming both her parents and her eyesight, she now works mercenary, and has a modest reputation bc of her skill and her parents legacy.

Rue Xeutola: (Human Fighter/Warlock) When Rue was young, she traded her meager and hungry life as a leatherworker for one as a soldier, and later a guardsmen in the city-state of Ramailya. She joined the system to try and make her home a better place. But when a greedy sweatshop owner burned down his shop and killed all his employees inside to avoid paying fines, she was forced to face the fact that the law was on the side of men like him. She took justice into her own hands, personally killing everyone she knew to be involved in the coverup of the fire, and left town. She has been doing odd mercenary jobs ever since.

Massana Tio: (Elven Elemental Sorcerer, not pictured) Massana was captured by Drow and brought into the underdark as a slave about 4 years ago. When the mad wizard, Bargle, had a falling out with his family, she was one of the possessions he swiped on his way out. She has only very recently come into her latent sorcerer powers, escaped, and met the party - who had their own reasons to confront and kill Bargle.

Elizabeau "Lizard" Quinn Al-Naadira: (Human Wizard, Transmuter) Lizard is a young wizard, daughter of Nadira Al-Naadira, the greatest swordswoman in the world. About 12 years ago, Lizard recieved a prophecy promising a life of misery, and her mother shipped her off to boarding school in an attempt to keep her safe. She worked diligently at wizard school until a few months ago, when she skipped out on her thesis project and hit the road. Since then she has met her familiar, Boop the goat, solved a murder mystery with the rest of the party, and fallen into the underdark as her prophecy fortold:

"Lost in heart, Lost in head, Lost in winding pathways dread Under shell so black and bleak Where light will never grace thy sleep Dreams of misery, Dreams of madness, Dreams of Goats, thy apparatus When Dawn caresses twilight's gloom, Only then may thou escape thy doom"
