Biographic Information

Oh boy where to start? Well first off, I joined Thorns in 2019 just before the world fell apart. When it did, I also fell apart. I lost my job and, in a lot of ways, found myself as a result. In addition to making a TON of friends on the internet, I also came out as Lesbian/Pansexual in 2021!

During 2020 I started DMing for pay, and have now turned that into a full fledged job as a professional Dungeon Master! It’s pretty cool you guys!

If you’re ever bored and want to talk, just let me know! I’m probably bored and want to talk as well!

Cast of Characters

Catriona Fraser
A mute blacksmith living in Vienda. I do believe I’ve put her through the most trauma I’ve put a character through. But she’s got fire and I love her for that! You can read through her stories here.

Writing Habits and Expectations

I consider myself a pretty well written person. I write as much as I can but I don’t just write for the sake of a lengthy post. I write as much or as little makes sense for the plot at hand (usually no less than a couple paragraphs) and I expect nothing less than that of others. All I ask when I roleplay with someone is that they genuinely care about the story we are creating. If ever one of my partners feels like they can no longer continue a plot, I would so much rather know that than have them disappear. Communication is everything!

Narrative Consent and Preferences

Please understand the use of the symbols I use below like this:

✅ Enthusiastic consent; bring it on.
⚠️ Okay if veiled or offstage; might be okay onstage but requires discussion ahead of time; uncertain.
🛑 Hard line; do not include unless I give you explicit permissions.

Mature+ Status

I’m fine being labeled a mature writer! As always consent is the key!

Relationships: Sex and Romance

I love romance and relationship drama to a point. I tend to fade to black after a certain point unless there’s something that we’re pointedly working towards. I’m not super explicit though and don’t expect anyone else to be.

Triggers

Please list any and all triggers that are important for you to avoid in order to have an enjoyable role playing experience. Unfortunately, given the nature of the political and social structures in place in the Six Kingdoms of Vita, please keep in mind it is rather difficult to fully escape such things as racism, sexism, and the occasional bit of homophobia, but if those are triggers for you, please list that you would like to limit interactions with major plot lines or player-led plots dealing directly with these things.

Note: Below are just examples. Please feel free to write in your own and/or delete ones that you don't think at all matter to you or will come up as an issue. Thank you.

Hard Limits

I have a serious phobia of ants and most other bugs. So they just do not exist when I roleplay.
