hello! i'm pan.
i like plots that are cool. bonus points if they involve loser arcs, antagonists, corruption arcs, characters unwittingly serving as eachother's narrative foils, lesbians, found friendships, relationships that go poorly but not for want of trying, yearning, violent hatred, pure desperation, political intrigue, and/or characters becoming what they swore to not become. please dm me on discord...ilu.
currently looking for:
- yggdrassil institute: a fancy research institute at OU of which saahir is a part not really looking for research buddies, but it would be cool to connect this group to other groups' interests across the site.
- tremerie expansion: always looking for shady sybarite contractors for my beloved wretched noble family. bonus points if milo hates you but has to work with you.
- circle co: a soon-to-be sybaris company that handles transport. if you can stomach working with julius kingston, that's a you problem.
- rich buddies: milo's friends! not that he deserves any, but it's always good to have friends in high places.
- childhood friends: possibilities for people from the vale, the myca, or from dephi's upper class.
- lesbians: ha-yoon is ready to move on her w her life. maybe.

[nospaces] [attr="class","sidequestscont"] [attr="class","sidequestsheader"] saahir vajracharya [attr="class","sidequestsabout"] [attr="class","sidequestsflavour"] [attr="class","sidequestsline"] ANANTYA. on my knees in wonder, god-forsaken in the grass so green i taste its embers, frothing at the mouth, a hunger god-given. archetype: the scientist; the wallflower. [attr="class","sidequestsline"] at a glance what reputation saahir has gained—as a brilliant student, reliable friend, a research fellow at the prestigious yggdrasil institute, or perhaps the runaway heir to a fortune in the desert sands—is quickly shot down with a flashing smile: [break][break] "ah, no, it's really nothing special." guilty crowns for godless mensaahir is the son of a runaway priest, a radical, a human, an idealist, and most importantly, a man he never really knew. [break][break] this story has no gods. that is to say, it has no fathers. [break][break] he grew up, instead, under the auspices of his grandfather, a well-worn soldier with only praises to sing of the war he had fought, the one that had claimed both his eyes and yet, he said, taught him to see. hydra, his grandfather had said. if anything happens, go find them. tell them what you are. [break][break] but what is he, really? a dancer, a priest-in-training, a boy with a fascination for living things in the dead of the desert? [break][break] whatever he is or was or could have been, it comes to an end very quickly. the coven he had joined evaporates in the desert sun, and saahir's already small world begins to dry up. [break][break] some months pass, and he moves to delphi. [break][break] he is pondering, still, on what he is. monsters, though, don't wait their turn—and hydra always comes to collect. relationssaahir keeps his cards close to his heart—and his friends, too. however few that he has. he's difficult to read, does not speak too much of himself, and always, always plays it safe. [break][break] but he can be persuaded—give him an argument, an analysis, a problem, and he will come to life like a cat with a new found toy. let him sink his teeth into something and he will not let go, give him a taste for something greater and he will be hungry forever. [break][break] he is the type to surprise people with his sharp tongue—you don't assume, at first glance, someone as mild-mannered, blank-faced, well-read, do-good, et cetera, would be biting back the acid from his tongue. [break][break] see, even though saahir is reserved and selective of the ones he loves, he is also the type to find himself in easy, constant company. such is the life of a welcome wallflower at a dinner party—the guest that plays the role of an artful painting, the one that can amuse you with a long and thoughtful story only to turn and sit for hours in silence just as easily, caught up in the rhythm of other people's voices. [break][break] in a rare moment of what you assume is candor, saahir says: " there is something reassuring about spending time with those that have too much of it, don't you think?"[break][break] the truth is, he just hates being alone.

[nospaces] [attr="class","sidequestscont"] [attr="class","sidequestsheader"] milo tremerie [attr="class","sidequestsabout"] [attr="class","sidequestsflavour"] [attr="class","sidequestsline"] STARBREAKER. you restless son, you ribbon-winner. you did everything so they could see. archetype: the prodigal son; the hero. [attr="class","sidequestsline"] "lord tremerie." having just earned that title from his father, milo is everything the press talk about these days, and he does everything to ensure their satisfaction. he's perfect, in other words: a gentleman, a model, an upstanding citizen. in the reserve, of course, as any cerberus witch worth their salt is. [break][break] he's an acolyte of his coven, the lord of the tremerie estate, his mother's darling son and his father's, well, son. [break][break] milo is a very pleasant person. he will remember your birthday. he will send you gifts for every occasion he cannot make. he will listen to you and offer you advice but never quite too much, and laugh and clap when appropriate. THE SUN DREAMS OF ECLIPSEalright, he's more than that. [break][break] he's competitive, cocky, the bright-eyed boy your mother loves and the crowds adore. he's clever with his words and sharper, if you give him a sword. it's easy to see why the nobles love him. [break][break] deeper still, milo is driven by emotion in all senses of the word: he's prone to kindness, easily being moved, easily being persuaded, to revenge and a sense of blinding self-righteousness. [break][break] he's sentimental, cares about the details, and dies by the swords he lives by—that is to say, he tries too hard, some times. [break][break] like the sun, he burns out easily. and the blackness left by a twenty-five year old fire is beginning to show. [break][break] did you know, milo tremerie had a brother? relationslord tremerie is a complex man with many roles to juggle—he employs both the servants of the vast tremerie estate, and the contractors of whom the sunlight doesn't speak. what deals with sybaris? are you mad? [break][break] he's a friend to many of the great houses that pledge their allegiance to cerberus, and an enemy to the idiots that make the same circles but don't know to show their deference—haven't you heard? the tremerie name is worth its weight in gold, nevermind how they got it. [break][break] and as for milo tremerie, well. [break][break] the sun is a lonely star. [break][break] keep him company, for a time—gods knows he wants it more than anything.

[attr="class","sidequestsline"] at a glance everyone knows a julius kingston. [break][break] the guy in your maths class that never shows up but gets full marks. the guy that dealt your brother whatever he wanted, but laughed at you and said you were too young to be here, weren't you? [break][break] in this alley, in the middle of the night, surrounded by the smell of blood and sea salt, when no one else in the city is awake? [break][break] what the hell is he doing here, then? [break][break] that guy that seems to know everything, everyone, and will gladly tell you you're wrong about so-and-so politician, or begin each new sentence with a did you know? and then leave you hanging yet unwilling to admit you did, kind of, want to know, too. THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREEa few truths, then: julius kingston is from the vale. he went to vale university. he was top of his class. his father was a dockworker. and his mother worked until she couldn't. and his sister killed herse—[break][break] hm. [break][break] that doesn't sound right. [break][break] that makes it sound too much like an upward arc cut short by the untimely demise of someone else. but the truth is, julius kingston is a downward spiral, and has been since thirteen years old. [break][break] his crimes are endless: theft, gang violence, arson, high treason comitted against the cavalry and the valencian republic. the usual suspects. [break][break] but he spent his late teens depressed and his early twenties making awful decisions. he's probably picked a fight with you. or slept with you. or maybe slept on your couch. he's only been in delphi since 2018, and honestly, he's gotten too comfortable. relationsjulius kingston will not let you in. he doesn't look for emotional support; his ego is enough fuel to run on, and when it isn't, there's always a cigarette. he doesn't want vulnerability. he doesn't want to cut open old wounds he's pretending have already healed. he wants power. [break][break] he's a sybarite—all he knows how to do is make enemies and shake hands with them anyway. [break][break] too zealous to be a hedonist and too apathetic to be anything else, julius kingston is the self-interested broken half of a deceased upstart journalist -- all he's learned from his dead sister is this: question everything.
