Hi there! Thank you for checking out my carrd. There's a few important things to go over if you're considering interacting with this creature of mine.

pilot. please be over the age of 21+ when engaging with this character and myself. i am an adult well over that age and due to the themes that my character are involved with, i am most comfortable with that age range. style. i am a multi-para, novella type writer. there are a lot of poetic themes and symbolism used in my writing. if you ever have any questions or want for clarity regarding my prose, please ask! i'd be happy to clear the air. communication. please communicate with me regarding plot themes, issues, etc. this character has a lot of secrets and i would rather those things not be metagamed into existence and/or any potential problems be left untouched. if we don't talk / write for awhile, i clean my light(s) and FL's a lot so no hard feelings. behavior. common sense, keep ic and ooc separate. while i am not opposed to making friends, please don't try and wriggle your way into that spot off rip. any uncomfortable behaviors will be communicated and boundaries broken will cut interactions. i have no tolerance for this.

ask about rp even if i don't have my tag on!

themes.   please know that prolonged interactions with this character will inevitably delve into dark/mature themes. they are heavily intertwined with this character and if you have any concerns, communicate those asap.  ?.     crow is a morally grey character. her intentions are usually selfish.
  ?.     she is an observer .. a stalker. communicate if this bothers you.
  ?.     she could be a friend, a foe, the good influence or the bad.
  ?.   crow will invade personal spaces. if this is a trigger for you, please let me know.  content.   i'm more than happy to fulfill roles for other characters, be it the antagonist, the bad influence, or maybe even some positives! but know that crow wears many, many masks on the surface. depth with this character requires rapport both ic and ooc.

contact. please ask me about rp! i don't usually tag up in the QS but i am more than happy to tag up / schedule something! i am not opposed to exchanging discords as long as people aren't weird about it. i am not always on ffxiv so it can be a lot easier to plan things through discord. just please don't explode my dms.

sight.   she is a small thing, some would say she is no bigger than a corn chip! her face always wears a smile despite those tired, half-lid eyes. she walks as though she has never been here before and that she is quite out of place. look closer and you will find that this little bird has many many wonderful friends in the shape of fiery, blue moths.
  smell.    something sickly sweet and warm like a comfortable blanket. other times she smells like blooming flowers, something fragrant and refreshing. oh .. there is something else in there too. something you know to be very .. very red.
  sound.   her chords are delicate, like the faintest chime of a bell. it is soft as though the slightest projection may tear the very strings from her instrument. words are fluently spoken from a silver-tongue and they promise pleasant and sweet things.

  ?.     she hides her face, sometimes just her eyes .. other times just one.
  ?.     her flesh is white as porcelain and her scales pearlescent.
  ?.     the lantern hanging overhead is ominous, housing a blue flame.
  ?.     there is magic all over her, written as though her skin were paper.

beacon of death.

common.

a black lantern is mounted to her back at the end of a long staff. in the presence of all things void and spiritual, it seems to ignite into a brilliant blue flame.

chaos incarnate.

common.

it isn't hard to see the consequences of chaotic magicks, fingers blackened all the way to the knuckle. you know this to be the bitter cause of imbalance and an improper conduit. perhaps that is a point of contention.

i think i know you.

common.

her presence somehow brings a wave of comfort to you. there is something sweet and warm about her that makes you feel as though you have always known her. but something is amiss.. a feeling you can't deny. like something's wrong.

moth to flame.

common.

gods, is that what you think it is? why of course! a proper infestation of bugs (moths to be specific), crawling all over her. tons of little bright blues that are all too keen and all too curious.

reputation in cuffs.

uncommon.

she's got quite the reputation with authority and being behind bars. perhaps you've seen her before, whether in chains yourself or .. the one who put her there.

distant observer

uncommon.

you may think you are alone .. but are you truly? when the faintest sound of ruffled feathers draws your gaze, you find a lone crow watching you from afar. she sees. she listens. maybe there's something of value to you, friend.

oyashiro's curse

rare.

when an entire village disappears overnight, it takes the memories of its people along with it. neighboring towns speak of "oyashiro sama's" curse with warning. perhaps someone you knew has been .. spirited away.

sweet dreamer

rare.

dreams are a virtue and they taste oh-so-sweet. something tells me you haven't had it so nice, and maybe you could go for a few rotten teeth. remember the pleasant memories .. but don't look too deep.
