lark ; rp blog I see the sun, and if I don’t see the sun, I know it’s there. And there’s a whole life in that, in knowing that the sun is there.

JON CONNINGTON

“Proud, for a certainty. Even arrogant. A faithful friend to Rhaegar, but prickly with others. Robert was his liege, but I've heard it said that Connington chafed at serving such a lord.”

ETTE GOLD / 22 / CHANGELING HEIRESS 

born henriette heyerdahl, who was happy

turned ette gold, who is...not unhappy 

but she knows that something is missing. her memory is like a kaleidoscope, shifting and splitting and distorting more the harder she tries to see the truth.

her papa says it’s a consequence of genetics, her father’s last gift. he says there’s nothing that can be done.

things she knows: that her father was a bad man and had to give her away, that her papa is a good man who keeps her safe, that his company does good in the world, that she forgets things that she shouldn’t. that she should remember he mother’s face. 

things she does not know: that her father was a good man once, that her papa stole her like a jewel, that she has her mother’s eyes. that she doesn’t have to live like this. 

things she’s forgotten: the sound of her voice, the last bedtime story he ever told her, her favorite brand of lipstick, her lunch plans with the charity board next week, why her papa thinks its unwise for her to get a seed implant. 

the outcome: she’s been spending more and more time inside the amusement parks, watching the synthetics spin and wondering if there’s really so much of a difference between her and them

YASIN LORENC / 35 / BLACK MARKET CYBERNETIC SURGEON

- adopted at a young age and raised quite happily until age 11 when his parents decided to adopt phaedra, aka the problem child. despite being five years older suffered under her cruel and manipulative streak, which almost completely sabotaged his relationship with their parents and his faith in authority as they sided with her. - left for college the day he turned 18 and never looked back. worked hard, got good grades, got into medical school. all good until phaedra, always intent on being the center of attention, followed in his footsteps. - still managed to graduate with an md as well as a bs in bioengineering and specialized as a cybernetic surgeon. did his residency with a program fitting synthetic limbs to combat veterans before landing a job at a swanky private hospital. - quickly grew bored by the lack of a challenge and the confines of medical litigation. honestly self-sabotaged a little bit, pushing the limits of what they’d let him do until it all came to a head when a malpractice suit was filed against him—the case was settled out of court but he was let go from the hospital. - went into private practice instead—on the black market. found the excitement he was looking for there, and a lot better pay too. quickly established himself as a cybernetic surgeon that’ll do just about anything for the right price and the freedom to poke around your insides. - badly injured one of his hands in a house fire to the point of losing the majority of its function and had it replaced with a synthetic prosthetic. when the mismatch between synthetic and organic hands interfered with his work, he had the other amputated and replaced as well.  - often known as silverhand in black market circles, a nickname he doesn’t encourage considering its completely obvious once you see his hands. claiming synthetic skin is cumbersome and harder to sterilize, he opts to keep his synthetic hands metal, disguising them with black gloves when he’s not operating.

XI-0367 “CENTURION” 50 : F.O. SPECIAL FORCES : OLD DOG, NEW TRICKS

>>> career soldier, secret adrenaline junkie. mad dog that wised up and grew old enough to lead the pack. seen it all, not easily impressed. should probably know better after seeing one empire fall, but doesn’t really know how to be anything but a number. a steady hand, walks a fine line between reigning the special forces kids in and letting them loose. step one: don’t get attached (failed step one).
