pleeeease say more about perrie? talk about the blorbo?? pretty please? 🙏
OH YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOUVE JUST GIVEN ME THE OPENING TO DO OKAY HI.
perrie is a pc in a ttrpg campaign ive been in forrrr. four years. but he also generally exists as an oc in the spaces between stuff. he has two partners (both also pcs) and they all love each other beyond words except for the fact that shit literally cannot stop happening to all of them at any given time.
their lives are tied to this fuckin. book. and theyre all technically sort of paranormal investigators, but more than that they just live in a magic house. lived. see. perries father is a nightmare, one of his partners mother is a nightmare, and his other partners Guy Who Raised Her sucks also. a hitman tried to kill them, they ended up in jail because perries father has political sway, and then his partners mom made one partner stab the other one and took him away and left the stabbed partner in a coma.
this is not the first time shit has Happened Like This. they are constantly being kidnapped or near killed or ripped away from each other violently.
perrie himself grew up in a very cold household. his mother died young and his father worked. he more or less raised himself. hes a very compassionate person, but struggles to express that. he also blames himself for things that are absolutely not his fault. he does this often. "hes the healer", he reasons. "he should know better -- do better".
hes got the little eyes because his abilities revolve around the concept of knowing, speculating, and making art out of ideas. theyre typically shut in thought but can snap open after significant use of his abilities or in times of great emotion. hes in his mid to late twenties but already going grey because of stress. he loves poetry but is often to shy to share it. the clothes hes wearing are not his own because his own are all either burned to the ground or covered in his lovers blood. including a scarf that was core to his identity up until that point.
perrie didnt understand the idea of home until he was with his partners in the place that they called that. hes not sure what home will ever look like again now that things are such a mess. he keeps moving, despite. trying to regain a grasp on his life. holding people as close as he can and searching desperately for those still out of reach.
hes also an orpheus figure.
