OOC: PERMISSIONS AND FIRST IMPRESSIONS

OOC PREFERENCES: Permissions for OOC game activity.
CONTACT METHODS: Twitter or email are the easiest, please just ask if you don't have either. DMs on Twitter work for me too.
THREADJACKING: This is fine if it's natural to the conversation, though please let me know or ask if it's unclear. On private threads, if you're not mentioned it'd be nice to let me know if you want another character involved.
SLOWTAGGING/BACKTAGGING: I am the president of slowtagging, and I'm absolutely fine with it AS LONG as if we have three threads going you're okay with sitting down and figuring out what happened in threads 1 and 2. I may drop tags that are over about a week and a half old, if you want to keep them going just nudge me. NSFW: Absolutely!! although sometimes I'm bad at tagging quickly.
AVOIDED SUBJECTS: Rape or nonconsensual sex (including foreplay). If this seems like something that is important to the plot and important I be involved in, please please please talk to me about it first - the answer may be yes but I will need to be warned.
PREFERRED GENDER PRONOUN: They/them please.


IC CHARACTERISTICS: Information for players.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Auryn is about average height or a little taller (5'11) and tends to dress in a utilitarian manner: jeans, boots, a button-down shirt, a jacket. He can dress this up (and looks pretty good doing it) if necessary. He always -- no matter what -- wears his father's dogtags around his neck. He has a few pieces of gratuitously pretty jewelry, usually base metals like silver or gemstones, most often rings. His speech is mostly carefully chosen and slightly over-formal, but occasionally when tired or relaxed his Southern accent comes out and typically his language relaxes as well. He tends to keep facial hair growing more out of laziness than style. He always carries a knife.
DEMEANOR: Auryn is polite but a bit forward. He asks questions if he has them, flirts if he wants to, withholds information if he feels like he should. He doesn't trust easily and more often than not he'll ask a question in response to a question. He walks with relative confidence. He's quiet and interested upon meeting someone, but will go cold or angry easily if they prove themselves not his friend, even remotely. He does not accept disrespect.
PHYSICAL CONTACT: This might be accepted or not, depending on who it is. He's not a fan of social boundaries so he does tend to touch or accept touches in sometimes unusual situations.
FLIRTING: Auryn really enjoys seeing the truth of people, so flirting that's flattery only might be dismissed or just used for banter, but honest flirting would be intriguing. Likewise, he typically is over-honest rather than precisely flirty and he likes to watch the reactions it provokes. He's not bothered by it though.
RELATIONSHIPS: Open to anyone. Auryn is extremely distrusting however: he sees sex as pleasurable and magically useful but has mixed feelings on love (combined with simply not putting a relationship at the top of his priorities).
HOME INFORMATION: A cabin he built himself in the woods. It has several different protective wards on it which wouldn't keep people out unless they meant explicit harm, but would definitely mean Auryn knew they'd been there.
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS: Anything limiting or implying an inherent wrongness to witches using their powers openly. He'd be offended by anyone trying to control or demonize the spiritual practices or innate abilities of ANY others, but not quite as personally. Inequality in general will get him angry.
ABILITIES: Human abilities include a quick ability with learning manual skills, as well as just general stamina for learning things, almost endlessly (Auryn tends to get itchy if he's not learning something new). He's good at construction, particularly, and decent at cooking.
POWERS: Auryn's powers have to do with tapping into magical power and/or the base structures of things and asking them to change, or to create. They're generally transformative. He also has a special closeness to wolves and dogs. There's a whole section on his background and magic here: https://do-what-thou-wilt.dreamwidth.org/1977.html
SIREN FORM: N/A
WITCH FORM: No other forms.


IC PERMISSIONS: Permissions for IC game activity.
RELATIONSHIP CONTROL: No godmodding him, but I'm open to any/all connections.
MENTAL: I don't forsee him not noticing this, so if you'd like him to be fully affected please discuss with me.
FIGHTING/VIOLENCE: Okay, and probably quite easily drawn into this by anyone being a jackass or opposed to witchcraft. I don't need a heads up on this as long as you're okay with being snapped at by Auryn (at least).
LURING: I'm okay with this, please contact to determine how far this goes.
MAGIC: Yes, though he'll recognize it's being done for the most part. I'm fine with that and with it affecting him, without much discussion unless you've got a desired reaction from him.
OTHER / NOTES: Auryn uses "He/him" pronouns for ease, but does not recognize gender as a fixed concept. He doesn't have a lot of experience with gender terminology but he's closest to gender-fluid. I may slip into they/them pronouns for him at times, just depends how I'm feeling and how he's feeling in my head.

DATE LAST UPDATED: Updated for use in PSL/AU/meme situations 5 Sep 2018.
