This is gonna be a weird request when you get to it, but do you have any personal headcanons in regards to oroniri weddings? Asking because I *really* want to write something for Magnai and an OC, but I have no idea where to start with this.

The Oronir are a proud people. They value little above that of the Dawn Father’s omnipotence and their Nhaama. 

Weddings are usually only between fated pairs due to the established legend of the Sun/Moon dichotomy of lovers within their beliefs. Having multiple partners is not particularly common among those of the Oronir due to their beliefs, but it’s not forbidden either. 

Sleeping around with others is also not uncommon. While some find their Nhaama at a young age, others search for decades on end to find their fated one. As such, entering temporary partnerships and having sexual relations with other tribe-members is nothing out of the ordinary. 

While they would never dare stop another Oroniri from being with their Nhaama, the Khatun must give their blessing before a couple can be wed if one of them is from outside the tribe. Once wedded, it’s traditional for those who marry into the Oronir to take on a different last name to mark them as a fully fledged tribe member. 

Similarly to the Dotharl (though they won’t admit it), the Oronir are flexible on their presentations of gender and sexual identity. They believe that they should be what Azim intended them to be regardless of their physical confines. Due to their flexible wardrobe and constant place in the seat of the Dawn Throne, it’s rarely contested by outsiders.

Oroniri weddings are loud. The feasting lasts anywhere from one to four days and includes traditional song and dance along with the wedding ceremony itself.

The Oronir dress in the colors of the Dawn Father and their Nhaaama in the colors of the Dusk Mother, consummation that of a tradition marking the end of the wedding celebration. It’s both a way for the new spouses to pay tribute, but to also worship each other the way Nhaama and Azim intended.

It’s traditional for those marrying to perform ablutions to cleanse themselves of illness and to usher in prosperity and fertility. 

Where rings could easily be lost or stolen, body jewellery is more common. Things like piercings and upper arm bands worn beneath the clothes are symbols of marriage despite their inconspicuous placement. Within the Oronir, it’s taboo to lay hands on someone else’s spouse and, as such, it’s common knowledge whether or not someone is married or not.

You don’t need a perfect story set in stone to RP a character. Or very much of a backstory. Come up with the major details first, let the other stuff naturally form to fit the character.

👀 …someone my muse likes, but doesn’t trust.

That’s a tougher one. Ashoix doesn’t trust most people, but he doesn’t make that obvious. I think most recently Vesette @ethie-and-friends is someone he likes (...to torment), she’s easy for him to bother but he senses she won’t let him get away with too much when it comes to his teasing. He likes her, and while he doesn’t think she’s untrustworthy, he doesn’t know her enough to trust her.
