possible hooks ––– –
THE BENES BLOODLINE: The Benes family is an upper-class, fairly prominent family in Garlemald, with several members occupying high-ranking positions in the military and government. Her father Lucius is a Primus Medicus researching the application of magitek to prostheses. Someone from a similar Garlean upper-class background might recognize the signature Benes Blue eyes.
MUSICAL MOTHER: Theodosia cen Benes is a somewhat famous pianist and patron of the theatrical arts. When she was a child and young teen, Celia and her mother performed at several venues together. Fans of the theater might also recognize Celia from performances she attended.
POPULARES: While the Benes side of her family avoids voicing their political views, Theodosia and the rest of the maternal side of Celia’s family are staunch and outspoken supporters of the Populares. Celia resembles her mother enough that anyone who knows Theodosia could probably deduce that Celia is related.
MEDICUS, MIA: Celia interned at a training facility overseen by her aunt and then briefly served at a castrum in Ilsabard before being transferred to Eorzea, where her transport was attacked and she ultimately made her escape during the chaos. She has been reported as Missing in Action. People privy to this information might be curious to know why she’s obviously not.
A GARLEAN IN EORZEA: Celia tends to eavesdrop on conversations while relaxing around Ul’dah, especially when she hears about the Empire or places still under Garlean control. She thinks she’s being sneaky, but she really is not. She and her significant other are currently seeking a way to return to Garlemald with the intent to restore the republic and bring reform.
NOVICE ADVENTURER: These days, Celia spends most of her time doing adventurer work throughout Eorzea (with a preference toward Ul’dah) in the company of a red-eyed “Elezen” obsessed with chocolate ans sweets, a Hingan Miqo’te who normally has at least one magitek bauble on his person at all times, and/or a tall, broad-shouldered Hyur man who carries himself like a seasoned commander. She may lack the ability to use magic or manipulate aether, but when she’s not with her companions, she’s usually willing to lend a hand to other adventurers in need.
INSERT OTHER HOOK HERE: I’m not picky about hooks! I am very open to other possible routes, and I’m extremely open to pre-established relationships. If you have an idea, by all means let me know!
ooc information ––– –
I’m mainly looking for friendly contacts with Celia, but she’s bound to butt heads with people so enemies are also welcome!
I don’t do ERP. I will not budge on this. NSFW content is a-okay, but I refuse to write out characters actually doing the deed.
I’m on Eastern Standard Time, and will usually be online in the evening and late afternoon. Because I help take care of my grandparents, this may fluctuate depending on their needs and any emergencies that pop up.
I am extremely shy and have terrible anxiety. I can almost guarantee that I am more afraid of you than you are of me! It shouldn’t affect Celia and how I write her, but it will most certainly affect OOC interactions. I know it can be tough to deal with, but I ask that you be patient with me.
I’ve come to prefer RPing over Discord, but I have no issue RPing in-game or through Tumblr.
I mirror the writing length of who I’m writing with to the best of my ability!
I’ve come to prefer plot-driven, Mature RP and have no issue with darker themes, but am more than willing--and even eager!--to adapt to the comfort levels of who I’m writing with!
That said, you can mainly get my attention here on Tumblr or in-game on Celia Benes or my main Shizuko Sato, both on Mateus.
(Please note that I’m a shy af mouse and it takes a lot of effort for me to combat anxieties to respond. I guarantee that if I don’t, it’s not because of something you’ve done! <3 Please don’t be discouraged!)
But if you’d prefer Discord, I’m willing to privately give you my info.
I do!! I have a puppo and a kitty, and we have horses!!
Fumikage Tokoyami: Are you a day or a night person?
hmm.... a guess technically a day person.
Shota Aizawa: How do you show people you care about them?
I try to tell them as often as possible, and I try to remember things they like and dislike, and I’m really really affectionate with people I care about!!

Krolia has taken a liking to the culture of taking selfies with your food, and often does this with the people she’s drained completely.
Celia has a pitch-perfect singing voice, but is actually very embarrassed to sing for others.
Everything Aphelion says about the great truth of the universe is wrong, insisting that death is the only truth to everything but ignoring contrary evidence. Though to try and claim they are wrong is entirely false as well and that you should be thankful for them, because without the creation of the first predator, the first murderer, life would never evolve beyond the carbon-eating bacteria blobs at the bottom of the ocean of a volcanic world and thus without the influence of the darkness we wouldn’t be here. Now will you care to make a [bargain] O’ Reader Mine~?
