Your character doesn't need to be likeable. They need to be legible. The reader needs to understand every decision they make even when it's wrong, even when it's ugly, even when they want to shake them. Likeable is easy and forgettable. Legible is what makes someone stay with you for years. Make the logic of every bad choice visible. The reader doesn't have to agree with it. They just have to follow it.

[waddei]

a lot of people seem incapable of giving their favorite characters or OCS opinions that they themselves disagree with and that's very very boring on my opinion

[waddei]

" X character would hate ai art" "x character would vote for (politician you like)" like idk I think making every character a perfect woke internet leftists is boring as fuck. You have to accept that some of your faves would be "apolitical" centrists that don't vote

“Discovered” Avilee Backstory

1319 AE When night fell upon the Reach a signal was given, heavy footsteps were heard on the cobblestoned streets as the clattering of metal armour could be heard. This was her chance, she only had this one chance and she knew it well. Her armour clunked heavily with every stride she made towards the Upper City. She had to reach that gate!

As she approached the gates towards Rurikton she unbuckled the strap of her helmet, quickly lifting it off her head and tossing it aside. The loud thud followed by softer thuds were filling her ears as she continued running across the cobbled roads. She hoped that would distract some of the guards just long enough for her to make it towards the stairs in the gate plaza, which seemed only further and further away as she went through the main gate into Rurikton. Unfortunately it didn't seem to do much... a feeling of increasingly overwhelming anxiety set over her and she knew she had to find a way to shake off the guards chasing her. Avilee clenched her jaw as her eyes darted over the district plaza ahead of her, as she ran down the streets of Rurikton towards the Asura Gate. Her eyes spotted a merchant wagon, but she new there was no way she'd go unnoticed, not in her Seraph armour. Within a split second she was undoing every single strap and belt holding her armour together while she awkwardly continued running through a murky alleyway adjacent to the main road leading down to the gate plaza. The sounds of clattering armour echoing down the cobbled stone and slanted houses. It didn't take long for her to find and snatch some rags from a nearby clothesline. Putting them on however was an excruciating task for the noble woman, aware as ever that she knew nothing of commoner dress styles. Nor did she care. As she left the alleyway she halted her pace to a walk and made her way to the cart, cloaked in the wrappings that she hoped made her seem like a poor merchant or mercenary of some kind. The man on the wagon didn’t seem to notice her tailing him and his cart across the plaza, past the large fountain, up towards the Asura Gate to Ebonhawke. As they made their way up Avilee looked back over her shoulder to see the Seraph guards frantically searching the square. Loud commotion was heard as they did so, her breath shaking as she exhaled. “C’mon” she whispered impatiently under her breath as they queued in front of the gate. Her eyes focused on the seemingly scruffy Asura attuning the gate and checking papers. Avilee prayed to the Gods that she could slip through unnoticed. The Seraph slowly made it's way to the gate and Avilee felt the pressure of her impatience build up fiercely in her chest. The elderly couple in front of the wagon was holding up the queue talking with the Asuran as they retuned the gate. As she heard the armoured footsteps close in, Avilee slowly started walking towards the gate, praying that the guards wouldn't stop her right there and then. Their voices quickly grew louder and as the Asura finished their task, Avilee made a dash for the gate, ignoring every shout directed to her and getting through that damn gate as fast as she could. ''Get her! Get that traitor before she escapes!'' She heard them yell as she went through. It wasn't long before her body moved from the lands of Kryta to the southern most part of Ascalon. Ebonhawke, the last fortress of the Ascalonians greeted her on the other side.

More random Alexander facts because I randomly found scribbles in a notebook I forgot about haha. - Has been looking for Mireia (his younger sister) for 10+ years, steadfastly believing she's alive. - Was a Seraph recruit in his younger years, met Avilee Cavalli during his training days, but his career never took off due to an incident with the Ministry Guard. - He has had multiple jobs since then, but he can't seem to keep any of them for long periods of time. - Has a son with a married woman. He rarely ever sees his son as the husband of said woman believes it's his and it's all a big secret. - Has been afraid to start serious relationships ever since. - Admires the Commander, as he once aspired to be as brave and committed to the job when he was young.

Do I actually want to write this fanfic or do I just want to wallow in the delicious daydream like a pig in the mud?

[thebitchywitchyone]

Unfortunately I wish for others to wallow in my magnificent mud pit

[yaketysmax]

thank you for the magnificent mud pits, fanfic writers

The Commander and a Separatist, polar opposites.

Fic, writing & musings notes

Hi, I need a space to jot down random phrases and words for certain characters and (background-)story hooks/themes (for writing or rp), so they can leave my mind and I can potentially finally write them someday! (fingers crossed). Feel free to use them as inspiration in case you want to send me an interaction with your character!

Random picture of Lucinda so I can easily find it. Notes starting under the cut. (ongoing)

Mireia Mireia under the aetherblades, never having met Scarlet personally but talking about how the attack on Lion's Arch is going to kill thousands to Mai Trin and how she feels about that herself. Insight in why she made the decision to desert from her post. Falling in love with Lilith and then, losing Lilith. Finding a new crew after the Battle of Lion's Arch, after the loss of Lilith, dealing with grief and guilt while exploring new connections. How did she end up in the Maguuma Jungle. Finding Mai Trin in Cantha in the hideout before the Commander does, wanting to reconcile and converse, but Mai is drunk. (Maybe possible past romance hooks?)

Alivia Cracks in the relationship with Erick, losing closeness after trauma, how did they end up getting divorced. Longing for intimacy emotionally but feeling closed off, trying to open up after loss and grief.

Feeling like she lost a piece of herself in alternate Tyria, and seeking to return to an idea of self. Her reaction to Erick in alternate Tyria and struggling with the idea of their past in the original timeline. Themes of saying goodbye. Finding out he got killed in this reality? Dealing with the sense that her life is completely different now. Figuring out how to find a hero to fill the Commander's role. Does she approach the orders and try to tell their leaders what she knows? Who does she need to convince? xTrahearne? What if she uses his favourite poem (widely known in OT but not AT) as proof that she speaks the truth and he's really touched that she knows.

Avilee

Longing to be desperately wanted and to be touched, craving someone's love, because she can't love herself in that way. Yet she won't let anyone in, not truly. Feeling broken and beaten, longing for connection but being afraid deep down so bitterly pushing it all away.

Relationships with family members, further exploration. Who does she get along with and who doesn't she get along with? Is there a lot of strife? How did she become a revenant? Getting stuck in the Mists -> what happens, what does she experience/see? How does she get out?

Lucinda

What was her relationships like with main story NPCs? - Caithe and Trahearne feel like siblings to her, how did their relationship develop?

How does it actually feel to not truly be living but also not be dead? What does Aurene's magic feel like? Raising Aurene, details on it and what their bond is like. The burden of the title, what does it do with Lucinda? If she ever had time for romance, who would she be interested in?

[lizzz-rp]

OOC - OC ask (link)

Going to answer a few for Avilee Cavalli!

2. How do you pronounce their name? Does anyone pronounce it wrong?

Ay-vii-lee. Sometimes it gets pronounced ‘wrong’ more like Ahvi-lee.

She has strong feelings about this.

6. What is THE thing(s) that inspired you to make the character? Would they like it?

When I came up for the idea of Avilee I was listening to a lot of music from Ivy Levan and Bebe Rexha at the time. At the same time a few RP friends and I were coming up with our own Noble house to RP storylines together. Before things were decided on the family itself I was heavily influenced by the songs of Bebe’s EP “I don’t wanna grow up.” Which kind of set the base theme of Avilee’s personality. At first Bebe was her face claim/inspiration before Eiza Gonzalez.

She was intended for GW2 RP only at first but soon after I have remade her in many other games so she’s kind of become a standalone OC. However, a lot of her backstory is heavily influenced by Tyria so she makes the most sense as a gw2 oc.

I wanted Avilee to be a sexy, angry woman (femme fatale was a term I was also drawn to at the time) when I first wrote her. Over time that has grown a bit deeper, by simply questioning why, but the base is still the same. I often feel like she still needs some more specifics to make her a bit more relatable and lame, instead of just being a bitch ahaha.

Avilee I think would like it, thinking of how she’s similar to famous, successful women.

8. What's the first important bit of lore you came up with for them? Did it ever change?

The first important bit of lore I came up with, after the family was established as kind of a Mafia noble family (@cavallifamily), was that she has a big scar on her face from family betrayal. The details of the betrayal have changed a few times, especially when she became a Revenant character.

12. Do you have anything in common with them?

Avilee is this badass that my younger, teenage, self would have only dreamed to be. I think that we have a lot of insecurities in common as well as the inability to put complicated feelings into words.

SEND ME ONE OF YOUR OCS AND ONE OF MY OCS

I'll tell you how mine would react to yours! Would they get along? Would they hate each other? Would they end up running off to make out? Find out here (my inbox)!

[shipsandtea]

Do you wanna play mermaids? Yay. Okay so my tail is light blue and I have ice powers. And I live in the Arctic sea and watch British sailors die horrible deaths while trying to find the Northwest Passage.

[teaboot]

I’d wanna be a giant six foot long arapaima with broad flat scales in the warm shallow murky waters of the Amazon and I would burst out unexpectedly to crack people’s skulls open :)

[write-me-afandom]

My tail is deep teal with golden shimmer on the scales, and i have a Siren Song that lures men to the water and drown. BUT!!! If a woman hears if then we both fall in love and we make out underwater and if its true loves kiss she turns into a mermaid too!

[lizzz-rp]

My tail is white with shimmers of pale pink and teal, I have sharp teeth and claws to help me feed. I prey on the weak with mild curiosity. I once navigated the Unending Oceans in the deep depths of the sea. Now I try to mingle with these weird creatures of the lands, whom I wish I could see. Sometimes the hunger takes over and I take a little taste.
