art was the finest and most natural thing the planet had to offer, with those sceneries and those sunsets he’s always been so deeply in love with ━his own hand trying to keep the trail of fine lead on textured paper as he wanted to render immortal the way clouds and trees surrounded the skies in that lovely spot he had found whilst wandering, sketching the ushering leaves and the way trees almost looked like a block of silent, observing figures always watching the living kind from afar, a somehow soothing company for his own overly lonely soul ( if he had one, humans liked to debate on that ).
too bad the company he had to share that marvel with ━and he wasn’t really sure if they were there already, or if they arrived in a second time━ wasn’t as much as a joy to tolerate, truly. “ is it necessary for you to snore this loud? it’s concerning. ” his voice tried not to rise as he tried his best to keep himself contained in mere annoyance, for he feared his ice to turn everything into dust. “ shouldn’t you visit a medic for that? ”
“hey.” thwack. the flat of onyx’s hand against the belly of a snorer who’s sprawled out like the place is all his. a rude awakening but onyx couldn’t give a shit. this is the only bench in the whole godforsaken park and onyx is not just going to let it become a bed for someone else. the man pops upright, eyes wide, droll smeared across the chin. glistening in the waning daylight and onyx’s just staring from behind a pair of over-sized black sunglasses. cherry bomb slushie in hand, toothpick hangs from his lips. it bobs when clicks his tongue and jabs a thumb over his shoulder cruelly. “hotel’s that way, van winkle. move it.”
this vessel’s all of five foot something and soft around the edges. and yet the guy still moves. cheeks all red, beer on his breath when he scampers upright and hoofs it across the lawn. “see? not so hard, picasso,” onyx says, watching the guy go before plopping down in the newly freed place. lays out all heavy, arm thrown over the back and knees open wide. gets all comfortable, head cocking over to watch the pain in the ass that is bae moonsik drag a couple of colors across a page. landscapes. onyx rolls his eyes. “passive aggressive ass. does whining ever work for you?”
[ non binary, they/them ]. did daniel “neil” yuen just walk by? the 25 / 27 age year old familiar with the form of a jaguar is known for their bookish, idealistic and ambitious, cynical behavior. that explains why they resemble im jaebum. doesn’t nub-bitten nails, moth eaten paperbacks and lonely subway carts remind you of them?
rel again! this is the third of my three, NEIL, and he’s sort of new, so characterization will be a bit of a struggle for a while. once more my discord is @lesbee1619. thank you in advance for reading and like if one of the connections or plots below interests you!
⋆ ◦ * CHARACTER —— background.
⋆ Dad’s a witch; mum’s a demon. ( Bit of a nasty shock for him when he found out. )
⋆ Raised by their father, Neil grew up knowing that their purpose in life was to serve a witch, to empower them with anything they needed to succeed. Of course that affected Neil’s outlook, their self-worth; but when training in that little shop with their father’s familiar ------ a lovely fox hopelessly in love with Neil’s father ------ Neil was told there were always options in life. That they could do more with their years than spend them in service of someone else’s happiness. Believing Neil wouldn’t find happiness and fulfillment until they found their witch, Neil was thrust into the world of witches as a young age in speed-meets and greets. It was embarrassing, it was boring, and it was frustrating.
⋆ Neil’s mother appeared several years later and whisked Neil away. Partly out of boredom, partly out of fury at Neil’s father. At first, Neil was fine with the difference ------ for once, someone wasn’t at his ear every day telling them how they had to find their other half ------ but Neil’s mother was ...... crazy. Batshit crazy. Fresh, young demon in a pretty body. The appeal washed off quickly when Neil witnessed an accidental murder that their mother just shrugged off as nothing by saying that’s the way things are. It oddly echoed what Neil’s father had told him growing up. At twenty-one, Neil had enough. Just because that was the way things were, didn’t mean that’s the way things had to be.
⋆ The irony isn’t lost on Neil that the moment they started looking for their witch on their own that they found them. Now, intent on changing the social order of things and broadening the reaches of the familiar’s power, Neil’s truly found fulfillment. They don’t want to just be a servant. They don’t want to be just fodder. They’re desperate, hungry, and most of all, they’re angry.
⋆ ◦ * ZODIAC SIGN —— virgo.
❝ Virgos are always paying attention to the smallest details and their deep sense of humanity makes them one of the most careful signs of the zodiac. Their methodical approach to life ensures that nothing is left to chance, and although they are often tender, their heart might be closed for the outer world. This is a sign often misunderstood, not because they lack the ability to express, but because they won’t accept their feelings as valid, true, or even relevant when opposed to reason. The symbolism behind the name speaks well of their nature, born with a feeling they are experiencing everything for the first time. ❞ ( x )
❝ With a natural thirst for knowledge that shows itself early in life, other kids at school often call Architects “bookworms.” While their peers may intend to insult them, those with this personality type likely identify with the label. Throughout their lives, they’re proud of how much they know, and Architects enjoy sharing the knowledge they gain. They’re confident in their mastery of their chosen subjects. They are serious and prefer to design and carry out effective plans rather than waste their time with foolish distractions like gossip. ❞ ( x )
❝ A lawful good character acts as a good person is expected or required to act. He combines a commitment to oppose evil with the discipline to fight relentlessly. He tells the truth, keeps his word, helps those in need, and speaks out against injustice. A lawful good character hates to see the guilty go unpunished. ❞ ( x )

⋆ ◦ * WANTED —— connections.
⋆ feelings towards other creatures: neil’s fascinated by the lore and history of other creatures, but is guided by a very strong moral compass of right and wrong. he dislikes anyone from any background who purposefully hurts the innocent, so he has a strong prejudice against demons. he’s wary of vampires, siphoners, and sirens. as for angels, neil’s never met one, but he believes he’d mostly just be annoyed by them for some reason. neil is sympathetic towards hunters and humans and believes they should be protected, but is very equitable in seeing that everyone’s protected from injustice, not just the weaker creatures. he’s aware of his own vulnerabilities as a familiar --- and his demonic heritage. he’s most sympathetic towards other familiars, and is more protective over them than even his own bound witch because of their odd attachments.
⋆ connections: witches they know from their childhood and up ; older witches who know their father ; demons and the like who know of their mother ; demons who have tried to broker deals with neil, sensing their desires ; someone who’s like-minded in the whole anarchy / justice stuff ; customers at the shop ; fellow familiars who think neil’s an idiot ; fellow familiars who think neil’s speaking the good shit ; a hardcore crush on neil’s part ; people he runs into at frequent haunts ( aquarium, library, metro, college campuses, planetarium ) ; annoyances ; people neil sees doing Evil / Bad shit that gets neil all bothered and ready for Vengeance ( could also be a misinterpretation of events! ) ; a true best friend and confidante

[ cis female, she/her ]. did odette fumero just walk by? the 32 / 519 year old level d vampire is known for their meticulous, fearless and finicky, conceited behavior. that explains why they resemble ana de armas. doesn’t faux fur coats, giant hoop earrings and malicious grins remind you of them?
rel, back at it again with another intro! this is the second of my three babes, ODETTE, and she’s my queer queen! again, it’s best to reach me on discord @lesbee1619. thank you in advance for reading and like this post if one of the wanted connections interests you, or if you have an idea of your own for a connect / plot!
⋆ ◦ * CHARACTER —— background.
⋆ As a human, Odette lived in Cuba on the cusp of colonization. As a vampire, she lived at the bottom of a strict hierarchy that very closely resembled the blood purity ideology of the human world she suffered in. When the war came in the 1600s, she quickly struck her allegiances, made her pledges to the ones she saw would lift her from the gutter and has rode the wave sense. What was left her humanity died when she did; Odette had no qualms for slaughter, not after seeing what colonizers had done to her people, to people like her. She reveled in the revenge, the cruelty for cruelty’s sake. Now, she stands at the top of the pack even as a low-based vampire. A level d. Neither pure nor whole in any sense of the word. A goddess of the new age.
⋆ Ever since, Odette’s made sure to choose her loyalties carefully. Risk is exciting, especially for her, but her safety is never something she’ll question. She’ll do anything for those that do for her. Over the years, she’s cultivated a close-knit group of fellows who she knows will have her back when it counts. In a world where everything’s changing, from technology to style to music to people, she keeps the ones who matter close. They’re her buffer for when things fall apart ------and, seeing how the empires have crumbled in the past, she’s certain it’ll happen at some point in the distant future.
⋆ ◦ * ZODIAC SIGN —— gemini.
❝ Expressive and quick-witted, Gemini represents two different personalities in one and you will never be sure which one you will face. They are sociable, communicative and ready for fun, with a tendency to suddenly get serious, thoughtful and restless. They are fascinated with the world itself, extremely curious, with a constant feeling that there is not enough time to experience everything they want to see. ❞ ( x )
❝ In the workplace, school, home, or any other social gathering, it’s pretty easy to spot ESTPs. Spirited and spontaneous, fun-loving and even slightly crass, people with the ESTP personality type are go-getter types who take on life head-on and love being active and engaged. ESTPs work hard and play hard, and they expect everyone else to adopt this same mentality while around them. Networking and making new friends comes naturally to ESTPs because of their outgoing nature and drive to be successful. These qualities make it easy for ESTPs to get along with just about anyone, as long as they are not deemed to be lazy, flaky, liars, or complainers. ❞ ( x )
❝ A chaotic neutral character follows his whims. He is an individualist first and last. He values his own liberty but doesn't strive to protect others' freedom. He avoids authority, resents restrictions, and challenges traditions. A chaotic neutral character does not intentionally disrupt organizations as part of a campaign of anarchy. To do so, he would have to be motivated either by good (and a desire to liberate others) or evil (and a desire to make those different from himself suffer). A chaotic neutral character may be unpredictable, but his behavior is not totally random. He is not as likely to jump off a bridge as to cross it. ❞ ( x )

Other: 5′6 ; slim, athletic ; pink hair ; ears pierced and several miniature tattoos ; pansexual ; homoromantic
⋆ ◦ * WANTED —— connections.
⋆ feelings towards other creatures: odette is jealous of higher ranking vampires, so she takes any opportunity to lord over her closeness with nathaniel at any occasion. she doesn’t like to be reminded of her weaker status, and can become downright violent when provoked about it. she appreciates witches --- partially because they saved her ass in the war hundreds of years ago --- and thinks angels are pretty, but sad. she’s terrified of sirens, and has a healthy respect for werewolves ( not that she’d ever admit it, but she thinks the shapeshifting is totally cool ). she despises demons and special humans, and doesn’t respect any human that a) doesn’t fawn over her beauty and awesomeness or b) immediately offer their necks for her when she walks through. she hates hunters worst of all, and spent the better half of the past few centuries hunting them to extinction. odette has no opinion of immortals and is amused by familiars of witches she likes.
⋆ connections: a sire ; an intense, old flame ; a ride or die fem friendship ; someone she’s incredibly annoyed by, so she’s snapped their neck more than a few times ; a preferred bloodbag she dotes on ; a witch she purchases enchanted weapons and jewelry from ; a rival within the vampire ranks ; a nemesis who senses her sensitivity towards her ranking ; a shopping / brunch / party friend group ; a friend with benefits that’s kept lowkey af ; past friendships that’ve soured ; a former best friend who grew tired of her antics ; humans related to people she’s drained ; a doppelganger - style kind of thing of someone important from when she was a human ( could’ve been a human best friend, lover, neighbor, enemy or w/ever ) ; someone she has a crush on that she can never have

[ demi male, he/him ]. did onyx bae just walk by? the 23 / 1,000+ year old demon is known for their resourceful, candid and impulsive, mercurial behavior. that explains why they resemble park jimin. doesn’t hazy neons, stacks of rings and pink bubble gum remind you of them?
heya! i’m rel and this is a mobile post because i’m getting ready for work now :/ . this is the first of my three babes, ONYX, and i look forward to writing him with you all. the rest of my intros will be posted eventually. it’s best to reach me on discord @lesbee1619. thank you in advance for reading this trainwreck and like this post if one of the wanted connections interests you, or if you have an idea of your own for a connect / plot!
⋆ ◦ * CHARACTER —— background.
⋆ Peasant born and raised in Baekje right on the coast. Realized at sixteen backbreaking farm labor on the clan leader’s farm was not worth it and set out for the sea as a sailor, then fell into some pirating and plundering troupes. Quick and dirty trap, fell into plundering the coasts of Japan, China, and Silla, taking from the rich to sell to the richer for coins to rain on the underclass for cheap tricks and fun.
⋆ Life caught up when he fell into a trap somewhere in China and found himself thrown in some warlord’s prison pen. A warrant out for his head, the one then-known as ❝ Joo ❞ called out to anyone desperate and found a demon answering the call. Traded a way out of torture with his soul after .2 seconds of thought, but died two months later from leprosy on some shitty countryside. Wow.
⋆ Spent three hundred years tortured in hellfire before he found the demon again. This time, they came with another offering, another trade; another way out. Joo took this one again without a thought, eager for a way out of hell and walk the earth again. After a few more decades of dying without dying, he found himself breaking ground with a duty —— devour souls and keep going.
⋆ Joo’s taken thousands of steps under the guise of hundreds of different vessels. Mayhem there, mayhem here. Eventually it all gets a little dull, repetitive cycles people keep falling into, ruts that make the fun no longer fun. When the war happened centuries ago, Onyx didn’t take a side ------ but he certainly appreciated all of the desperate souls he gobbled up. What he wants now is just some damn peace and quiet, and to avoid hellfire’s home with everything he’s got.
⋆ ◦ * ZODIAC SIGN —— scorpio.
❝ Scorpio-born are passionate and assertive people. They are determined and decisive, and will research until they find out the truth. Scorpio is a great leader, always aware of the situation and also features prominently in resourcefulness. Scorpio is a Water sign and lives to experience and express emotions. Although emotions are very important for Scorpio, they manifest them differently than other water signs. In any case, you can be sure that the Scorpio will keep your secrets, whatever they may be. ❞ ( x )
❝ Adventurer personalities are true artists, but not necessarily in the typical sense where they’re out painting happy little trees. Often enough though, they are perfectly capable of this. Rather, it’s that they use aesthetics, design and even their choices and actions to push the limits of social convention. Adventurers enjoy upsetting traditional expectations with experiments in beauty and behavior – chances are, they’ve expressed more than once the phrase Don’t box me in! ❞ ( x )
❝ A neutral evil villain does whatever she can get away with. She is out for herself, pure and simple. She sheds no tears for those she kills, whether for profit, sport, or convenience. She has no love of order and holds no illusion that following laws, traditions, or codes would make her any better or more noble. On the other hand, she doesn’t have the restless nature or love of conflict that a chaotic evil villain has. ❞ ( x )

Sunglasses, never the same pair twice. Pockets full of candy. Denim jackets. Studded belts. Stacks of rings, silver bracelets. Pierced ears and lip ( hoops )
⋆ feelings towards other creatures: onyx is very old and very tired. he generally has a low opinion of every creature, but he’s been around enough to form his own prejudices and to abandon others. he’s generally amused by vampires, werewolves, and humans alike. witches and siphoners scare the shit out of him, and he has a respectful fear / avoidance of all things angelic. for centuries, he competed with other demons for souls, bargains and the like, but for the past several decades he’s sort of become bored with all of that and spent most of his time amusing himself. he’s made more than his fair share of enemies among hunters and the like. during the war, he took no side but did reap the benefits of a whole bunch of scared humans in the aftermath. since he was mostly neutral, he’s earned both friends and enemies on all sides of the battle lines. as long as they don’t expect him to do something, he’s fine.
⋆ connections: vessel’s ex who doesn’t know their ex is now a demon ; treasure hunter who figures out onyx is an old af demon ; fellow ancients who know onyx from past bodies and lives ( contracted, lovers, enemies, sources of entertainment ) ; a familiar and/or siren descended from one of onyx’s various human forms ; fellow demons he’s exhausted by / has a love/hate relationship with ; vessel’s roommate ; a surprising best friend ; an age-old nemesis who’s just as tired as he is ; customers at the convenience store onyx works at ; humans or magic-sensitive folk who’re willing to make a bargain for more power / knowledge ; lovers from the past ; enemies from the past ; the one who got away ; fellow lowkey prankster ; good influence ( they don’t have to be “good” ) ; tutor in all things 21st century ; a hunter on his tail ; someone he’s friends with because they’ve both lived so long that it’s pointless to be enemies with anymore ; someone he’ll never be friends with. ever. even if they’re the last things on earth ; a romance that ended HORRIBLY ; someone who he sealed a deal with during the War who hasn’t paid up yet
