🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈

Have some rainbows for any you have hcs for wahooooo

Hehe, thank you, friend!!

(source: this post by bewearships)

send me a 🌈 + one of my F/Os for my sexuality/gender headcanons for them! - Right, you've sent five rainbows, so.. let's give five headcanons!

Luna is canonically a trans girl, but in terms of her sexuality, I headcanon her to be an ace lesbian. I even made trans and ace pride flags by colourpicking from my headcanon design for her, look!

On the note of romantic F/Os from Reborn, I headcanon Elena to be bisexual! I think she does have a gender but could not tell you what it is if you asked; she's just rolling with being who she is, haha. I also tried making a colour-picked bi pride flag from her sprite, but I couldn't get quite as close:

Okay, now for some other romantic F/Os. I headcanon Skye to be largely agender, using he/him, they/them, and xe/xem pronouns - this is partially because I also headcanon him to be a changeling (because he can use magic when nobody else in the valley can and it's literally never explained), but also partially because I cannot easily believe a cis man would have his "monochrome leopard-print shirt with shoes to match plus purple trousers" fashion sense. I would also say he is bisexual.

I headcanon Pavo to be trans and also a lesbian! Although I do imagine that Celestrians may not exactly have mortal ideas of gender, being divine-created angels and all. I know that she and Aquila are twins, and I want to say they're said to be identical? But Aquila is male whereas Pavo is female (despite, fun fact, aquila being first-declension feminine where pavo is third-declension masculine!), soooo..

And finally.. oh, screw it, have all my Xenoblade ones again. Pyra is a lesbian demigirl, Vanea is asexual and panromantic (plus your description of her as a nonbinary woman also feels very fitting), Perun is trans (in a Blade way) and sapphic, Lora is cis and asexual and a lesbian, and KOS-MOS Re: is a lesbian who is far too overpowered for gender (though honestly I don't really have anything concrete for her yet). In my headcanons, anyway!

I hope that all of those were alright, friend! Thank you very much again for sending so many rainbows~

love, trust, and diamond dust (Perun/Sapphire)

A valiant ice-element Blade who fights with power and pride alongside the Flamebringer, and a Gormotti girl raised with the Garfont Mercenaries whose unique ability turned out to be the key to her revival. Together, they work to reach Elysium in hopes of discovering the truths of their pasts.

setting: Xenoblade Chronicles 2 romantic F/O: Perun self-insert: Sapphire "Paronet" names for the selfship: love, trust, and diamond dust, perupphire, ardent gemstones selfship start date: 9th December 2020

Content for this selfship: on this blog | on previous blogs

Some more things you may wish to know about this selfship are under the readmore!

As this post demonstrates, Perun's character tag is "love: ardent lancer (perun)", while Sapphire's tag is "self-insert: gem of garfont (sapphire)". The tag for the selfship as a whole is "selfship: love trust and diamond dust (perun/sapphire)"!

In the story of this selfship, Perun's Core Crystal is found by the party while they are travelling through the Leftherian Archipelago. Due to it being fractured, she ordinarily would not have been able to be awakened again - but Sapphire's ability to crystallise atmospheric ether means she is able to repair the Core Crystal and allow Perun to be reawakened. In this case, it is Morag who resonates with her, so she becomes her Driver - but she also takes an interest in Sapphire and her unique ability, so the two end up interacting a lot and getting to know each other very well indeed as they make progress through the world.

This selfship takes place in a different version of events to my selfship with Pyra, which means Sapphire is not paired with both characters at once.

Despite how long I've been selfshipping with Perun for, I unfortunately don't have a ton of lore or story in place for this selfship yet. However, this is something I would really like to change, so if ever you have any questions about Perun as an F/O or the selfship in general, please know that you're always welcome to ask!!

[moved-to-void-kissed]

🌙🌙🌙🌙 One for each of your Xenoblade selfships, maybe? To celebrate 3's release being (just about) here!

Hehe, that sounds like an excellent idea to me! Thank you very much for sending all of these in - since I've only finished these now, when you're probably already playing the game, I hope you are having lots of fun with it!~

(source: this post by nougatships)

Give me a 🌙 in my inbox and I’ll give you a random headcanon about my selfship, F/O, or self-insert. - Alright, here we go!

For my selfship with Pyra.. one of the places that means a lot to us is the Dragon's Whiskers, one of the secret areas in the Urayan Titan. After Pyra asserted that - despite being a fire-element Blade - she wasn't adversely affected by water, Sapphire took her down through the lake in the Cataracts of Rujah, and the two ended up in this secret outlook that Sapphire herself named and discovered. Pyra was amazed by the view from that place, because there are glowing Saffronia trees everywhere, and you can see across the entire Urayan Titan to Fonsa Myma.

For my selfship with Perun.. Sapphire isn't necessarily reckless, but she can be very chaotic and try to do things mostly for the fun of it, even if she generally will back out if it becomes too risky. Perun, on the other hand, is much more careful and more of a strategist, taking after her Driver (who is not Sapphire, since she lacks aptitude, but instead Mòrag). I like to think this makes us a good pair, since Sapphire can help Perun get less caught up in pushing herself too far whereas Perun can help Sapphire act less instinctively, for example so she doesn't try and throw Zeke off a bridge (again).

For my selfship with Lora.. it takes us ages to confess our love to each other, though it does happen eventually at some point on the journey, because Lora doesn't know how best to go about confessing whereas Aline is too worried about whether Lora likes her back or not. This inability to make things official, in tandem with our feelings for each other being extremely obvious to everyone else in the party except ourselves, leads to exactly as many exasperated awkward pining moments as you might expect. Something, something, disaster sapphics (when it comes to romance, anyway)

And for my selfship with Vanea.. since both of us are up in Agniratha (albeit Mera makes trips up and down occasionally while Vanea is working), but it had to be abandoned so quickly when the Telethia attacked, I imagine a lot of the Machina who used to live there would have left things behind. So, one of the things Mera does is go into Agniratha to try and salvage and archive some of the things that the other Machina had to leave, and bring them back to their original owners in the Hidden Machina Village, before then making her way back up the Mechonis to reassure Vanea that the other Machina are okay, and to bring her something as a souvenir of sorts. For example, Ice Kiwi Fruit from the Fallen Arm, since they are said to clear the head which Vanea would need after working on Face Nemesis for as long as she does.

I hope that all of those were alright!! Thank you so much once again for sending this ask in, and I apologise for how long it took me to finish answering it ;w;

Echo's romantic selfships: Love, Trust, and Diamond Dust (Perun/Sapphire)

"so what if they're "important"? we matter just as much!"

==============================

romantic F/O: Perun (Xenoblade Chronicles 2)

character tag: love: ardent lancer (perun)

selfship tag: selfship: love trust and diamond dust (perun/sapphire)

paired self-insert: Sapphire "Paronet" (when not selfshipped with Pyra)

self-insert tag: self-insert: gem of garfont (sapphire)

selfship start date: 9th December 2020

comfort sharing romantically: fine with sharing!

==============================

Perun is an ice-element Rare Blade who wields a Megalance as her weapon, and is one of the Blades awakened by Mòrag Ladair, Special Inquisitor of the Empire of Mor Ardain. Sapphire Paronet (or at least, that's how she refers to herself) is an energetic and confident young woman - Gormotti by race, but raised as the adopted daughter of Vandham, leader of Uraya's Garfont Mercenaries.

Sapphire joins Rex and the rest of the party when they wash up in the Urayan Titan, and she first meets Perun after Mòrag resonates with her Core Crystal, found in Leftheria. The two find themselves becoming close as Sapphire gets to know Mòrag better, admiring Perun's strong sense of justice and willingness to defend her friends.

Despite Sapphire not being Perun's Driver, the two of them still share quite a unique connection because Sapphire has the ability to repair Core Crystals that have been cracked or fragmented. Perun’s Core Crystal had been fractured when the party first came across it, leaving it unable to be bonded with, but Sapphire was able to repair it so that Perun could be awakened again.

This selfship takes place in an alternate version of events to my selfship with Pyra.

⭐?

Hello, Simon! Thank you very much for sending this in - it really means a lot!~

(source: this post by sennamybeloved)

send me a “⭐️” and i’ll use a random thing picker to choose one of my F/Os, and i’ll reply to the ask with a small infodump about my selfship with them! - Alright, so, for this one I got Perun! I was hoping it'd be someone from something that I know you know, but the wheel decided to continue the XC2 theme, it seems.

Perun is one of the Rare Blades that you can obtain by chance from awakening Core Crystals in Xenoblade Chronicles 2. She's an ice-element Blade who wields a Megalance, and.. she's generally not thought of as being very powerful by comparison to many other characters. (This does not stop me using her a lot, however.) In terms of her personality, Perun is very valiant and determined to do what is right, even if she ends up pushing herself beyond her limits at times because of that determination. The self-insert that I use to selfship with Perun is my main XC2 self-insert, Sapphire! This is the same self-insert that I use to selfship with Pyra, but I selfship with both of the characters in different versions of events, rather than simultaneously (though am still friendly with the other in both!)

In the story of my selfship, Sapphire meets Perun during the early part of Chapter 5, as her Core Crystal is found broken in the Leftherian Archipelago by the party. The fact that her crystal was broken would normally have meant that she could never be awakened; however, Sapphire has the power to crystallise small amounts of atmospheric ether in order to fix damage done to Core Crystals, which allows them to be resonated with again (and thus, the Blade within them to be reawakened). Since Sapphire herself lacks the aptitude required to become a Driver by resonating with a Blade's Core Crystal, it was instead Mòrag who became Perun's Driver in my version of events; the two are very well-suited to each other in both a personality way and a gameplay way, so they quickly became close, but Perun also wanted to get to know Sapphire well too, since it’s only thanks to the power she has that she could have been reawakened. So, we end up talking a lot as time passes, and.. I will admit that the exact details aren’t really very well-established, but we do end up eventually falling in love with each other! ^-^

I hope that all that was okay as an infodump! I really want to play XC2 again now, haha - I’d actually probably say that Perun is the character I’ve played as/alongside the most out of all my XC2 F/Os, since I normally tend to play as Mòrag and I awakened Perun with her on my first playthrough. Thank you very much again for sending this to me - it really means a lot that you took the time to do so!!~

[moved-to-void-kissed]

Today’s random selfship-related fact is:

Perun is naturally very determined and stoic, so she finds it difficult to express her affection through words. One thing she did to convey her feelings to Sapphire was to locate a Crystal Camellia flower for her when the party were visiting Uraya on one occasion, since they are some of Sapphire’s favourites but are a very rare sight in the kingdom, and gift it to her, preserved in ice.

[moved-to-void-kissed]

so I finally figured out how to get XC2 models into MMD, and

(the white silhouette, for context, is the very beginnings of the reference model I’m trying to put together of Sapphire)

I know Perun is wearing ridiculously high heels, but that’s still quite the height difference, huh

[moved-to-void-kissed]

I apologise that this post is so long, but I decided to change something and I wanted to make things clear! It’s nothing bad or anything, just a little update

I’ve decided that, from now on, my selfships with Pyra and Perun will be in separate versions of events, although I will still use the same self-insert (in this case, Sapphire) for both selfships! So, in any given scenario, Sapphire will either be Pyra’s girlfriend or Perun’s girlfriend, but not with both at once. It just makes more sense to me to do things that way and makes me feel better about both selfships.

..More explanation and rambling is under the readmore, just because otherwise this post would have been stupidly long if I didn’t put it under there!

I don’t really want to call either case an AU of the other, because that implies one or the other is the “default” which isn’t really what I want - although, given that Pyra is one of my main three romantic F/Os whereas Perun is not, and Pyra is such a more prevalent character in the game compared to Perun, I understand if people end up thinking of my selfship with Pyra as taking precedence over my selfship with Perun in their minds. But they are technically different versions of events - think like the two counterpart Pokémon games, which both follow the same kind of basic story but with different events along the way?

(It’s different to how my selfships with the two versions of Aqua work, incidentally, since my selfship with Anti-Aqua is only within the context of the fallen light AU, and in that situation it does make sense to treat my selfship with Aqua as she is normally as the “default” state of things. Though I think part of that stems from the fact that Aria’s personality is a bit different between the normal and AU situations.)

This doesn’t really change too much in terms of story for either version of events - even in the case where Sapphire is with Perun rather than Pyra, she would still be good friends with Pyra and probably able to still perform a Blade Drive with her, just not as quickly (maybe after Nia instead of before?). The events in Sapphire’s big confrontation at the end of Chapter 7 don’t have to be altered too much (check under the readmore for rambled context if you’re curious), and so on and so forth.

The only thing I might do is move Perun’s resonance forwards, since I originally put it midway through Chapter 6 and that’s fairly late from a story perspective. So if I make it so she joins the party, say, somewhere in Leftheria, she gets to be around for all the travel in Chapter 5, since that encompasses Leftheria but also some of Indol and Temperantia. I still think Mòrag is the best fit as her Driver from both a story and gameplay perspective, so Perun wouldn’t feature until she joins the party, but.. I’m wondering if keeping Sapphire out of the party for most of Chapter 4 because she’s in Garfont looking after Vandham until he recovers enough for her to come back and meet up with everyone again might make things flow a bit better in that version of events? I’ll think about it.

I hope that all this makes sense! It’s something I’ve been thinking about for a fair amount of time, and I feel a bit happier going about things now that I’ve changed this. I’ll try to make this clear on my carrd and whatnot as well (though at the time of posting that might have to wait until tomorrow), but please don’t hesitate to let me know if you have any questions or comments!

Context for what I meant by Sapphire’s big confrontation is below this point (I can’t put in a further readmore, unfortunately) - warning that it’s technically kind of spoilery by virtue of being pretty late-game:

—————

At the end of Chapter 7 at the Cliffs of Morytha, I had always had it written that Sapphire lashes out at Malos and pushes him off the cliff, just before everyone else falls down as well from the cliff breaking (thanks, Artifices). At that point in time, Jin is freezing everyone by trying to bring the temperature down to absolute zero. I originally circumnavigated this by having Sapphire be bonded with Pyra at the moment that she and Mythra ascend to become Pneuma, so not only was she bonded to Pyra and therefore able to move because of her warmth, but Sapphire also gained the ability to perform a Blade Drive with any Blade, not just those she had already built trust and affinity with, because of her connection to the Master Blade, Pneuma. This even includes other Aegis Blades, though only for a moment. So, Sapphire confronts Malos and performs a Blade Drive on him - so he feels, for a moment, what it’s like to be powerless, but also maybe some idea how much she cares about her friends - and then pushes him off the cliff when he forces her out.

However, in the version of events where Sapphire is with Perun instead of Pyra, she would perform a Blade Drive with her instead, and is still able to move because - as an ice-element Blade, like Jin - the cold doesn’t affect Perun at all. The two help Rex hold off Jin while Pyra and Mythra are talking before they ascend, then Sapphire still pushes Malos off the cliff, but it’s because he’s distracted by Pneuma’s attacks and Sapphire surprised him. I imagine in both cases he summons Ophion to try and catch him, but it doesn’t get there in time or is intercepted by Siren, so you still get the two Artifices fighting and bringing the rest of the cliff down.

The basic premise of “Sapphire isn’t bothered by Jin’s cold so she’s able to fight back against him, then pushes Malos off the cliff” remains the same in both cases, but the reasoning behind why she’s able to withstand the cold (Pyra keeping her warm vs. Perun letting her not feel the cold), and the way in which she gets Malos off the cliff (momentary Blade Drive with him so he stops in his tracks and falls vs. pushing him from the side while he’s distracted by Rex) are different. So, it all still works out!

[moved-to-void-kissed]

okay so I got to the final chapter of XC2 again on my current save file except this time I’ve actually been watching the cutscenes (albeit via watching an online playthrough because my instinct was to skip them to get through the final areas in my save file) and oh wow do I have thoughts

These are all going to be massively end game spoilers for XC2 of course, (plus also some very end game spoilers for XC1 to some degree because, surprise, the two games are actually more connected than they appear at first glance) and they’re also mostly scraps at the moment, but if I don’t write this stuff down in some capacity it will disappear before it takes root so here goes

This isn’t quite as far in as the later things, but ouch is Sapphire going to be hit hard by Elysium. Remember, although she’s Gormotti by race, she grew up in Uraya, which is by far the most watery of all the visited Titans (it’s even where the Sealstone of Water for Zenobia’s quest is located). So it’s the most different compared to her homeland than everyone else’s because of that.

Also for the illusory fights or whatever the term is for them, the false Sapphire would show up alongside Nia, either angry at Rex for being Pyra’s Driver even though she’s the one who’s in love with her and/or berating him for putting Vandham in so much danger at the Olethro Playhouse.

I could very naturally extend the cutscene where Klaus is explaining how he recreated life and stuff, to add a bit at the end where he talks about the bond between humans and Blades, so then he can use Sapphire as an example of an unexpected development because that’s when she finds out about her nature of being a Blade Eater from him (but specifically carrying the essence of a Core Crystal inside herself, compared to someone like Zeke who just has a solid piece, so she is much more of a hybrid of human and Blade in some but not all senses)

He could maybe also remark on how Pyra and Sapphire have such a close bond and are in love, as another example of the connections made between humans and Blades that he maybe didn’t necessarily intend (I don’t know if I want to make that silly idea I had about Sapphire asking for Klaus’ blessing for their marriage to actually be canon, given how it clashes with the seriousness of the situation, but I am still thinking about it - and also Rex isn’t entirely that super serious anyway - so it’s possible)

Also I can bring Perun into this too!! She’s basically just an ordinary Blade but Sapphire still loves her a lot. So that’s another way of proving that humans aren’t solely driven by power and strength, there are still many who do things for love and caring as well

Then, regarding my other XC2 selfship - maybe the Conduit is actually the Zohar and the alternate universe Klaus talks about that it came from is the universe of Xenosaga (even though the Conduit appeared in the world of XC2 way before Calanthe and KOS-MOS appear in Alrest, so.. maybe their transport over is tied to Pneuma’s awakening or something?)

So then, when Klaus stated that the Conduit would disappear when he did, maybe Calanthe and KOS-MOS also disappear from Alrest (i.e. are transported back with it to their proper time and place) at the same time

It’s late and I’m tired and this is about all I can think of for now and I doubt much or any of this is going to make sense to anyone else, but like I said, I’d forget that I wanted to express all these if I didn’t write them down here, so here they are

(Comments on what I’ve written are greatly appreciated - though of course by no means required- if anyone has actually read all this!!)

[moved-to-void-kissed]

so I decided it would be fun to try and play DQIX but with Sapphire and some of the other XC2 characters (or rather, a patch someone made for DQIX that changes some vocations’ stats and spells and whatnot so it’s way more balanced)

At the moment I’m thinking of going with the following party setup:

Sapphire as a thief with a knife (since the patch buffs knife skills a lot, and also having high deftness and getting lots of critical hits is super fun) - also I like the idea of her knowing how to use knives in XC2 because she wanted to train with her dad and all his merc friends but all their weapons were too big for her when she was little

Vandham as a gladiator with an axe - axes are the closest thing to Roc’s Dual Scythes, gladiators have ridiculously high strength but aren’t overly dextrous or agile which fits his XC2 stats, and he’s a fighter rather than a tank which is why I picked gladiator over warriors despite those having higher resilience (and also because warriors can’t use axes)

Pyra as an armamentalist with a sword - armamentalists are decent attackers but also on the slower side (suiting her Smash Bros portrayal), yet can support the party a lot with their spells which mirrors her ability to work well with damage-over-time strategies in XC2, and I think the patch even gives armamentalists the fire-element Frizz line of offensive spells so that fits even more

and Perun as a paladin with a spear - not many vocations can equip spears, and to be honest it might better suit her XC2 stats to make her a warrior, but personality-wise she’s supposed to be very valiant and fight for justice and protect the weak, which suits how paladins are in DQIX extremely well. ..Not to mention we need someone to be able to heal in some way, haha

This is not going to be a viable party at all, but I think it’s the closest I can get to each of them (I’ll try and see how close I can get to making everyone appearance-wise in the game, too) and honestly? This is for fun!

[moved-to-void-kissed]

🌙 for any f/o you'd like!

Thank you for this, Jadyn! If it’s alright, Perun is very much on my mind at the moment because today’s XC2 video was all about her, so I’ll give a headcanon for my selfship with her!

give me a 🌙 in my inbox and I’ll give you a random headcanon about my selfship, F/O, or self-insert. - Perun isn’t really one for having particular beloved favourite things, but the items that are listed as her favourites in the game are Black Roast Coffee and the sound of the Fonsan Viola. These things can only be purchased in Garfont Village, which is where Sapphire grew up. So, I like to think that the reason why Perun calls those things her favourites are because they come from Sapphire’s home, and therefore she associates them with her!

I hope this one was alright! Thank you again for this!~

[moved-to-void-kissed]

pyra & perue for the acrostic ask meme ? :o

Sure thing, Clara, thank you for these!! I have already given my answers for Pyra, which you can find here, but I've yet to answer this for Perun yet, so I'll do them for her here if that's alright!~

(question source: "ACROSTIC F/O ASK GAME" by sweettoothselfships)

P - Pets - do they have a pet? if so, what kind and what is/would be its name? would you have a pet together? - Nope, she doesn’t have any pets canonically. I also can’t really see her with any particular kind of pet, personally, but then I admittedly haven’t given the idea much thought before this point so that might be why, hehe

E - Emotion - is your F/O open with their feelings or do they keep them close to their chest? - oh, Perry is very much the latter of the two; she is not particularly outwardly "loving” and most of the time she is just steadfast and valiant to fight for justice. She also isn’t overly confident or well-versed in expressing and displaying affection (do you know the “um.. you fight good” line, from Mulan? That would absolutely be Perun saying that). So, she finds it quite difficult to admit her feelings at first, and worries that they might detract from her duty as a Blade, particularly given that her Driver is none other than the Special Inquisitor of Mor Ardain. However, it’s thanks to Mòrag’s strength in her own right, as well as support from her and several others in the party, that Perun is able to accept her feelings, allow herself to feel them because she knows they aren’t getting in the way, and subsequently try to communicate them to Sapphire.

To prevent this post from being overly long on the dashboard, I’ve put my other answers under a readmore, if that’s alright.

R - Rainbow - what colours do you associate with them and why? - mostly just the main colours in her design, which are white, blue and cyan! Not only are they all a prevalent part of her outfit, but they fit the fact that she is an ice-element Blade very well, and her Core Crystal is also light blue like every other standard Blade’s is (although in my version of events hers has some white in it too, as I’ve explained further down.) Maybe also gold, but only when it is placed with those colours, because she also has some gold decorations in her design. Plus, it fits her personality quite well, because of how she is strong and valiant and fights for justice!

U - Uplift - how do they help you when you’re stressed or sad and vice versa? - The main way that Perun supports Sapphire is by asserting that she can get through whatever might be troubling her, and trying to motivate her. She tries to be as reassuring and supportive as possible. On the other hand, Perun rarely shows sadness or concern, but I imagine that she gets stressed quite a bit, since she has a tendency to push her limits quite a lot (as can be seen in the DLC quest with her and Perceval and Godfrey, for example). So, Sapphire would reassure her that it’s okay to not be working at full capacity all the time, and she’s allowed (and encouraged!) to take a break when she needs it - there’s nothing wrong with resting!!

N - Nostalgia - what’s your F/O’s favourite memory? - hmm.. Probably her first one, actually, which is to say the moment when Mòrag resonated with her Core Crystal in the Leftherian Archipelago. The reason for this is not only because she was excited to fight alongside her new Driver and could sense that they held similar ideals of wanting to uphold justice, but it’s also because, in my version of events, Perun’s Core Crystal had been damaged when the party came across it, and there were some small pieces missing - so, this ordinarily would have meant that nobody could have resonated with her Core Crystal or awakened her as a Blade ever again. However, Sapphire was able to repair the damage and fix her Core Crystal, which allowed Perun to be awakened again (with the only indication being white lines across her crystal, like this). So, from the beginning she and Sapphire had a bit of a connection, and she was very grateful to her for essentially giving her another chance to continue living as a Blade.

I hope that all those answers were alright! Thank you very much again for sending this in! ^-^

[moved-to-void-kissed]

💞 + perun ?

Thank you for this, Clara!! I feel like I never get much of a chance to talk about her (since.. she's not exactly the most well-known or well-liked of characters, is she), so thank you very much for this!!

(source: this post by queenvonhresvelg)

send me 💞 and an F/O and I’ll tell you something I like about our relationship dynamic - There’s a definite sense of both Sapphire and Perun balancing each other out in terms of personality, and picking up traits from the other that they wouldn’t otherwise have displayed. For instance, Perun is naturally quite serious, but she does show moments of being a bit more silly - her line when she activates her Ice Mastery skill is “Stay frosty!~”, for example, which threw me off-course the first time I heard it because I wasn’t expecting her to say it. She started picking up those sorts of mannerisms from Sapphire, since she generally is less of a worrier and is more exuberant in how she acts. Conversely, Perun’s naturally calmer and stricter approach to things has also influenced Sapphire to be less reckless and impulsive in her actions (see: her and Mythra accidentally launching Zeke off a bridge when the party first gets to Indol. He was fine and they’re all friends now, don’t worry!)

I hope that that was alright! Thank you very much again for sending this in! ^-^
