Does Ava have any significant scars and how did she get them?

Ava has many small nicks and scars, and she doesn't remember where she got most of them. If you were to ask her about her scars, though, she'd show you the web of scars across her knuckles that she got when she first reached the Steppe and started hunting tigers for food, and one of them nearly ate her hand.

Tell me one (or more) things your character resents.

she resents the pirate crew who 'raised' her more then anything- hard not to with how she was brought up, and it tends to make her resent any folks who fall under the same...job description as they had. to be honest, she also resents herself for a lot of things.

(For character of your choosing) Go to your closet, open its doors, and take a look around. Which piece of clothing has a terrific story to tell? What's its story?

“After standing with the Warrior of Darkness when they faced down Emet-Selch, my red coat had become so stained with soot and blood that it could scarcely be called red any longer. I’d gotten it not long after the liberation of Ala Mhigo and it’d seen so many battles that it seemed ... remiss to simply toss it aside. If the Warrior had brought back night to a distant land, why not mark the occasion in some manner? I dyed the coat and hat black to mark the event and now when I dress, I have a memory I do not fear to face.”

How is your character’s imagination? Daydreaming a lot? Worried most of the time? Living in memories?

Answered for @the-wanted-man 

He’s a day dreaming, night thinking kind of guy. He’s literally always thinking about something, there’s rarely a blank stretch of time to cross his mind. 

The thoughts and occupations will vary. 

You have thoughts centered around people -- There’s the refugees he looks after, the commoners he assists, the blades he antagonizes, and the corrupt figures he makes his life’s effort to inconvenience. Pretty women almost always exist in lingering context. It’s not active so much as it is distracting, and he doesn’t put faces to the thoughts, but the occasional glance, whispered word, or prolonged touch will keep his mind wandering more perverse trails. 

Then there’s all the places he’d like to go, or the places he’d much rather be in a given moment. The man’s a thrill-seeker, and chases any kind adventure. There’s this constant desire for deep experiences or exciting events that might inspire that wild side of him. If he’s bored enough, he’ll make games out of random things going on around him. A story about a random inanimate object, or some kind of betting endeavor. Maybe how long before a bird leaves its perch, or if a lizard catches its fly. 

All the jobs he has planned especially. He does pretty high-stakes crimes, heists, break outs, general anarchy et cetera. All of which require extensive detailing. He doesn’t get lost in those, but there’s a veritable troves worth of information attached to any one job which leaves him plenty to consider on any day. Couple that with his more legal ventures, and he can often be left trying to maintain a good memory of his schedule alone. 

The Outlaw will not however, linger on depressive thoughts. He’s prone to bouts of intense melancholy but finds it to be a weaker aspect of himself. Worries, and frustrations don’t really help him so much as they do severely hinder him so if he comes up against those types of moods and thoughts he’ll chase whatever distraction he can to get him out of that state, or will do something utterly stupid if the situation he’s thinking about can be moved in some way. Those kinds of things need resolution, and he’ll do what he can to see some kind of end to them. 

(That got a little wordy, but I hope that answered the question! Sorry it was a bit late too!)

🐶 - Do you have a familiar? If not, is there an animal that you feel a connection with?

“I don’t really, but I really like foxes. I used to be called a fox in my tribe for my fluffy tail and big ears... and now I realize that was more of an insult than a compliment.,”

Does Saachi have a bookshelf, what sort of books or paraphernalia does she put on it?

She DOES. She has many, many, many bookshelves. Saachi loves to read. She’s crazy about it. Mostly she likes stories about big heroes fighting off big villains in big, high stakes, overwrought, cheesy big scheme stories. She also loves fairytales, illustrated children’s stories, poetry, and -really- epic romance stories. The more carried away with her emotions she can get, the better. She also has a lot of music books that she -fully- intends to open so she can practice songs on her harp and of which most she has probably opened once to say, “I want to learn that one!” and then maybe tried playing once before moving on, getting another book, and repeating that process. She’s also exceedingly sentimental and displays any gift that she is given. But her room isn’t very big and it is full of bookshelves. So where do those gifts go? They hang out on the bookshelves too, of course. Where else COULD they go? Thanks for the Ask! Sorry it took so long!

💐 Does your OC like flowers? What are their favorite? Do they keep a garden of some sort? What flowers would they use in a flower crown?

"Do I lose any of my cultivated cool allure and rebellious reputation if I admit that I actually do love flowers quite a bit? They're not going to make me less angry at someone if they give me flowers; I'll just be angry and also have flowers.

Favorites? I don't know the names of plants and I can't keep plants alive. But I'll try answering this anyway.

Those wildflowers you see while wandering along? The ones in places they don't belong or where you wouldn't expect? Growing out of cracks in the stone or speckling an otherwise barren landscape? Those ones.

Or the ones that people call a nuisance because they're weeds? That serious gardeners don't want around? Well, I'm not a serious anything and I love them.

The blue ones that grow all bunched together and look like stars are nice too. The ones that only bloom once in the night and then they're gone. Those roses that can't make up their mind what color to be so they're two colors at once. Blue and purple is especially pretty.

A flower plucked from a fancy, gated, secret garden and presented in a cheap vase is lovely too.

And a flower crown really ought to be made from flowers stolen from several gated gardens, don't you think? Leave the wild ones blooming where they will. Let the ones that were hidden be seen."

OOC: Wildflowers, Dandelions, Blue hydrangea, Moon flowers, Crossed roses, Theft.

Thanks for the Ask!

How would you describe your muse to someone about to meet them, in person, for the first time?

”Feral scientist” is a pretty apt descriptor. Let me say, it’s pretty hard to characterize someone who has had less than five minutes of screen time.
