&. guidelines

( I ) GENERAL     despite being the hermit that i mentioned earlier, i promise i don't bite. i can bit a little awkward and sometimes quiet, but in general, if there any concerns or questions that you have, i would be happy to answer them. i just ask that you approach me like anyone else, with care and respect. i don't take kindly to aggressive gestures and frankly, i am too old to deal with that sort of behavior.

( II ) LORE     i could care less, honestly. i don't really mind lore-bending as i personally believe that some really cool ideas can flourish from that. of course, i am sure that there can be limits to how much lore-bending there is, but for me, as long as it doesn't harm anyone or make roleplaying unmanagable, go crazy, do all of the cool stuff.

( III ) IC / OOC     this one i am going to keep simple and straight to the point. i am not my characters. what happens ic strictly stays ic. please do not confuse ic and ooc. if you have questions or concerns, approach me ooc and we can most definitely talk about it. also, my characters could be mean, upset, snappy, or cold, but again, those are my characters, not me. i draw a hard line on ooc and ic interactions and i do my best to avoid confusing the two.

( IV ) PLOTTING     i will always make time to figure out connections and talk about how our characters could interact in certain situations. i personally really enjoy brainstorming ideas and i try to throw as much as i can out there based on what i know of the character. please do not hesitate to come to me and talk about these things, i will yap your ear off if you let me.

( V ) WRITING SPEED     i have good days and bad days. there will be times where i am super slow to respond but usually i try to get a response back within a certain amount of time, which for me could be a week at max. i also am a full-time student at the moment so my time can be a bit split. if for some reason, i haven't responded in weeks, i usually inform the individual but there have been cases where i have forgotten or have been very busy and needed reminding. please don't hesitate to poke me in such circumstances, i appreciate that very much.

( VI ) SHIPPING     shipping is loads of fun, i really don't mind talking about potential romances or interactions that lead up to it. but i do have boundaries and i prefer shipping be in line with plot progress. i usually don't ship my characters without reason or some established relations. i haven't been in a multi-ship situation before so i cannot say how i feel about that personally, i try to put myself in my oc's shoes in that situation.

( VII ) BOUNDARIES     there are certain aspects of roleplay that i do find very uncomfortable, i steer clear of those. rape and dubious consent are ones that i will absolutely not participate in so don't even ask. i do not roleplay with minors; a lot of my characters touch upon mature and dark themes. i also just don't feel comfortable with the interaction so please respect that. godmodding and disrespecting others is something that i absolutely do not tolerate and our interaction will end very quickly. aside from that, i am honestly open to all sorts of themes for roleplay, my characters are a mix of different genres so i am more than happy to work with whatever you are comfortable with.

( VIII ) ASK ME     when in doubt, just ask me. i will happily talk through whatever your concerns or questions are. like i said earlier, i am a bit awkward, but i am very open to communication, so don't hesitate! some things that i will mention, please approach me about ideas that pertain to character death, potential disfigurement, and captivity. those are very big decisions that i would rather work through and brainstorm on. i don't like to be surprised with things like that.

MANON DELACOUR.
( main. )
    30. she/her. bisexual.

Tucked away in the quieter corners of Ishgard lives a woman who perpetually smells of earthy sage and the fresh aroma of rocky shores. Once a conjurer, now an artisan of fragrances and herbs, Manon is known for her meticulous nature, sleepy eyes, and awkward charm. Witty, with her heart on her sleeve and a dimpled smile to boot, she carries herself with quiet patience, and perhaps far more secrets than first appearances suggest.

MEHRUNNISA RAO.
( main. )
    30. she/her. demisexual.

Curiosity is hard to resist. Mehrunnisa is often drawn to the unknown. A courier and self-proclaimed archaeologist, both offer plenty of opportunities for her to indulge in that desire. Despite the storied background, she speaks surprisingly little about herself. There are gaps in her tale that she seems content in leaving unexplained and certain subjects she avoids with practiced ease. Whatever lies behind such caution seems to have followed her for years.
