little details meme



Icons and written text don't always give a clear impression of a character. That's what this meme is for! Describe what your character is like in person. What is their body type? Do they have any distinctive markings? Do they have an accent or unique kind of voice? Any interesting type of body language? This is especially great for any things that have changed since their arrival, particularly with the sort of alterations that have happened over the timeskip!

Basically, share anything that you feel other characters would notice about yours if they ran into them in the street.

order of operations
i. fill out this textarea:


ii. Comment to this post! Also, feel free to fiddle with the colour of the comments subject headings. Colour code your character!
iii. Read the comments of others.
iv. Get clarifications! Talk about how this affects your cr! Compare cool scars and recommend tailors to one another!

if you think you're going to get away with being a jaded antihero in her company you've got a lesson or two coming, especially if she gets upset and wants to cuddle him and just wants her friend back okay!!! just let her pet your hair and hold you again!!!

HOW CAN YOU DO THAT IF YOU BREAK UP WITH HER DORIAN

Lavender would help him sleep!

Which is a point Faolan did give him a herbal mix to help him sleep too so I guess sometimes he might... smell of whatever is in that. DARK AGES SLEEP ASSISTING HERBS OF SOME DESCRIPTION

Grell Sutcliffe

Height; 175 cm / about 5'9".
Weight; Absolutely no clue, and she's unlikely to tell anyone.
Visual; Tall with an athletic build from all of her training and getting into fighting situations, pale with vivid and very long red hair, eyes are golden green with a double iris as is typical of her race. Has a scar that runs from under her left shoulder to her right hip that she keeps concealed with her clothing. Possesses a female body in contrast to canon thanks to a boon.

Fashion; Constantly wears a pair of red framed glasses because as is also typical to her race, her eyesight is horrendously bad. Either leaves her hair down or braids it in various styles depending on her mood. Favours dresses nearly always except when travelling (where pants are worth it) or in combat (where armour is vital), favorite color is red though she's taken to black for things that need to last and/or might get dirty. Occasionally wears other colors though since the majority of her former wardrobe was destroyed. Accessory wise while there are some variations due to friends being nice, the most constant are the rings she wears -- the steel feather ring and the silver ring with the Unseelie seal on her right hand, Alyosha's red iron ring on her left. Why? Because the left hand symbolically works in secret and the right in the open and it's dramatic okay, even if she's usually wearing gloves so the point is only known to her. Also constant is the pendant Ganondorf gave her, though that's usually under her clothing. And while she's in Mair, she wears the badge of office that marks her as his second-in-command.

Demeanour; Excellent posture except when slumping to make a point. Much of how she carries herself depends on her surroundings -- the majority of the time she holds herself with confidence, head high, and unafraid to look people in the eyes, but to get whatever meaning she needs to through, she'll vary it up from outright throwing herself on a couch to sitting stiffly to hand gestures. Movement wise she's quite graceful, past the point a human would be, and it's most obvious when she's either in pitched combat or dancing since she doesn't try to blend in.

Aural; Her voice is a tool as much as anything else -- she throws emphasis on words freely, going as verbose as she pleases and varying her tone and volume to the situation. She does tend to err on the side of more polite and formal, and to catch her swearing is a sign that something is very wrong. Pitch wise, she's got something lower, with an accent that is a bit lighter for her stay in the Drabwurld.

Olfactory; I'm not answering this. 8|

Etc; Magically/psychically noteworthy, c/p'd from my permissions page!
"Grell is not human, and to those with the ability to register that sort of thing, would ping as decidedly inhuman. It is unclear whether she would count as a more divine or dark figure, so the safest bet is somewhere in a grey area between with a strong undercurrent of death." Just because I know we have so many people who can pick up on that in the Drabwurld now.

ASLAN

Height; 5'5-6" ... it varies, but generally he's eye-level with most characters.
Weight; The average African lion weighs about 440 lbs (200 kg), and he's bigger than that SO...he's a heavy weight champion.
Visual; Aslan is a lion. A very sizable one with a very generous mane. The books generally use the term "tawny" to describe him, his eyes are a warm, golden color, and the books go so far as to describe his paws as being "velveted" so...very soft.

Fashion; Generally speaking, Aslan doesn't need clothes because S'UP he's a furball. He is very clean, though, you will not often (if ever) see him dirty. Very meticulous as most felines are. If you get lucky and see him in human form, he basically looks like a hobo!knight from space.

Demeanour; Aslan generally carries himself with purpose and with dignity! He is a lion (and a king) so he is a graceful creature - very poised. He does, of course, act like his feline brethren and likes to lay around in the sun sometimes. He can also be playful so he isn't all seriousness.

Aural; Aslan has what the books call a "wild" voice -- the kind that makes you want to move around and do something if he's glad and sort of shrink away when he's not. He is a True Beast, and it is emphasized that he isn't tame so his voice basically reflects that, especially his singing. His roar can be joyful or frightening, etc. He also sounds like Liam Neeson .

Olfactory; Aslan smells...earthy. Like spring, the woods after a summer rain, or perhaps the sea, if he's close to it. Always, always, smells good.
Etc;

Flora

Height; I like to say 5'7" before heels, but who even knows. Could be much taller (and looks it, sometimes), could be shorter (and looks it, sometimes). Thanks, animation.
Weight; Excuse.
Visual; It doesn't come across well, but I imagine Flora is actually incredibly athletic, the only delicate thing about her would be in how she might carry herself sometimes, but straight up looks? Nah. She's very acrobatic, is very good at ballet (have you seen ballerinas, man) and other dances, as well as gymnastics, and oh right there's the whole saving the world on the regular thing. She's pretty lean, but strongly lean. Still has dem hips, though.

Fashion; Jesus, okay, insert essay. Never leaves the house without lipstick. Sometimes, she'll wear eyeshadow if the outfit calls for it or if she just feels like it, but when she's not transformed, her make up is actually fairly lowkey. Will absolutely never ever be dressed sloppily. Her clothes look bamf, even when she's dressing down, they'll always be nice and well-made. Wears bright and/or pastel colours scientically 9001% of the time. Surprisingly, she doesn't have anything against black and has bemoaned not having much of it, it just never happens. Doesn't have anything against darker or muted tones either if the occasion calls for it, as long as it looks coo. But she is pretty fashion-conscious and trendy and values natural beauty and health. Is prone to jewellery in-game like oh my god, people have given her so much bling, but she will absolutely always be wearing two pairs of earrings and an ear cuff, and slightly less often but pretty often: one or two rings. (one is Dorian's, the other is from the Citadel). Flora can have priorities over fashion, but if she has time, she likes to stop and shop in the places she's been to to buy what they have to fit in, but also because she just really likes it. Her hair's always done in some lovely style or other when she's in Caer Glaem or the Citadel. It's seldom loose these days.

Demeanour; It depends on who's around her and the situation. Awkwardtree is actually very interesting for this because Flora's courtly manners and etiquette are princess-tier, and she's had to use them much more often because of the setting and her station. So, great posture always, holds herself elegantly, curtsies are fly as hell. But even around friends, even if she lets herself go, she's not terribly sloppy about it. The most you might get from her is like tired flops, or something, or she'll let herself lie back in the grass instead of sitting primly. Her physical tics and body language are also just naturally pretty humble, demure, or even maternal except when they're not; she often folds her hands for a variety of reasons from anything from excitement to uncertainty, when on stage if everyone is blowing kisses or waving, she'll be the one taking a little bow. Something she does do that she won't in politer company is rub the back of her head, facepalm, or slouch over stuff, so it's pretty telling if she does that around you. She points or wags fingers to express disapproval VERY MOM-LIKE. She does touch her chin or lip a lot when she's thinking or working something out.

Oh, and she just touches everyone.

Aural; Ooh ooh, my favourite. Flora is very openly expressive in her face, but there's actually a contrast when it comes to her voice. It's not that she has everything on lock, it's more that her tones of voice tend to be subtle, and it's very calm and gentle almost all the time. To whit, she's only really yelled once, and at another time when she had to raise her voice to be heard over her arguing friends, she winced after and surprised her friends. Yeah. Even when looks mad as all hell in her icons, she's probably being calmly disapproving or whispering harshly, or something like that. Yelling is 2hard. Her mannerisms really depend on who she's talking to. She grew up under a monarchy and serves one, so while she is naturally very polite, she tends to keep her speech on the more formal side for all the courtly peeps. For everyone else/close friends/default state of being, well, she can still be pretty formal, poetic, and also speak like someone's grandmother, but is also a lot more casual.
She almost never stutters, but she does go "um" or "uh", sometimes. Honestly, if you want to get the most out of her, be Stella. Or Stella-like.

Olfactory; Flowers, flowers, and more flowers. Working? Flowers. Chilling? Flowers. Just nice flowers and earth or other planty things all the time. She wears and/or takes care of and/or rolls around in them all the time, ok, she actually earns it. Guess what she puts in her bath water? Anything she damn well pleases. Petals, cinnamon, vanilla, mint--IT'S GREAT BEING THE FAIRY OF NATURE.

But. But. Occasionally, she might smell like blood. Because of her work, as well. So.

Etc;
Her life.
