I was tagged by dear, sweet @nemo-of-house-hamartia a while back to participate. I have many ocs to chose from (7 to be precise) but I’ve got many on my mind at all times so it’s hard to choose just one. That said I’ve chosen 3 to do. Part one can be found here. This is broken up into three parts (one for each character) so y'all aren’t scrolling for centuries.
Claudia Fantana
Claudia is an original character for a rp universe.
Some of these answers are little suggestive.
Color: Red; the color of passion, energy, power and sexuality. Much like the rest of her, Claudia is a passionate woman. Both in her ambitions, and beliefs as well her security in her desires/needs as a woman. Hence why her performance attire is typically red, to showcase both her energy and comfort in herself. When she takes to the stage, she wants to give the audience a breathtaking performance. She will utilize her assets and gifts to wow them as best as she can. Whether they are wow'd by her voice, face or body is on them, not her.

Sky: Crisp, clear autumn night
Magical Powers: This is somehow both tricky and easy. Most straightforward response would be soundwave manipulation. Or vocal hypnotism like a siren. The scarlet siren is one of her aliases after all. However, that almost seems to direct for her. That said in another AU she has powers, and she is able to manipulate the air around her. This includes using her voice and projecting it at dangerous levels, creating wind gusts and manipulating herself to flight. So that's neat.
House Plant: Going to sound cliche, but a rose.
Weapon: In her main story she owns a pistol she carries in her little purse to protect herself from men who are a little too overly confident and handsy. It's an elegant little pistol and it is hidden well. So, I suppose that would the option.
Subject: Theatre.
Social Media: Pinterest
Makeup Product: Lipstick. Her performance attire is not complete without it.
Candy: Black Licorice. A funny choice considering she is quite popular in Saint Denis and the candy itself is not. However, it just felt right?
Ice cube shape: Star
Method of long-distance travel: Given the time period she lives in; she would ideally take a carriage. Although the train isn't out of the question, she much prefers the carriage as it is more convenient, and she can have more privacy with her thoughts.
Art Style: Hmm. That's a tough one. I typically don't think to associate my characters with a particular art style. First thing that comes to mind is oil paintings. Fluid and elegant much like her performance.
Mythical Creature: She is a Dhampir,,,, So I suppose a Vampire if I had to choose a full blooded one.
Piece of stationary: Books from her collection.
Three emojis: 🦇🥀🕯
Celestial Body: Saturn. Similarly to Faline I'm choosing to look to their sign's ruling planets. According to a quick google search (again) Saturn is said to symbolize dominance, time and structure, work, and authority. Saturn is said to also represent father figures. Which,, is quite ironic considering she never knew her father. That awkward coincidence aside the symbolism adds up for Claudia. Although I am not one to typically take the zodiacs and horoscopes too seriously; I do find the connections and symbolisms fascinating from a writer's perspective. And as someone with autism who likes linking things together, it scratches a good brain itch. That said, Claudia is very time focused and dedicated to her schedule. She sets aside times each day to enjoy her mornings and evenings, and even has a routine set for maximum productivity. She is much more focused on the task at hand then I could ever be haha.
Thanks for giving my brain another good exercise, Nemo. Hope you all enjoy.
Do I want to smooch robots and aliens because shiny and I’m curious? Or is because reading their intentions would be easier and more straightforward and thus would make me feel safer?
The more I play the Ezio trilogy the more I see such a contrasting parallel between Ezio and Basim.
I wholeheartedly believe Ezio would have been more like Basim had he not had a proper support system & guidance in channeling his grief. Both men are troubled. They’ve both experienced trauma and betrayal, and they seemingly both have a deep love for their families. They’re both guarded in different ways. But Basim is alone. He doesn’t trust anyone. He had no one on his side. None that felt genuine enough at least. He suffered from Mania, Ezio didn’t.
Although the two clearly never met (and Basim’s vibing in the grey by the time we pass through Ezio’s time period) I wonder if Basim ever saw/was aware of Ezio. And if he did, felt any sort of bitterness or jealousy.
