🌖 IC

🌙 PHYSICAL AFFECTION: Depends a great deal on who it's coming from. Dorothea can be very flirtatious, but she prefers to initiate physical contact on her own terms, and uses it to draw attention to herself when she wants it. She describes herself as a rose, though, and those have thorns. If she doesn't want you touching her, though, she'll let you know very clearly. That doesn't always mean threats of violence--often she'll slip out of reach to make herself clear, having come from a world where she was very conscious of social expectations and trying to climb the social ladder to make a comfortable life for herself. 🌙 SEXUALITY & PREFERENCES: Dorothea is bi as hell and has no strong preference in either direction. Age isn't a strong factor, either--she's 25, and she'll flirt with just about anybody, but won't get intimate with anyone much younger than her. She can go for older, more experienced partners, though. If you're very self-important (or perhaps a member of the aristocracy), she's going to be decidedly less interested unless she knows you fairly well. 🌙 HUGGING: As above, if you're a friend go ahead. Otherwise, prepare to be rebuffed. 🌙 KISSING: Same as with physical affection. 🌙 FLIRTING: Dorothea is very flirtatious, even a little over the top. Most of the time, she just flirts to flirt and enjoys watching people get flustered by her attention. 🌙 RELATIONSHIPS: Having spent a good chunk of her life chasing after the idea of finding a spouse that would keep her in comfort for the duration of her life, Dorothea now seems to be in search of something more genuine. Living through a war has changed her perspective on a lot of things, and in spite of her self-worth issues, what she really wants is someone who will love her for who she is. 🌙 PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: As a powerful mage and an experienced sword user, she will definitely either stab you or drop a meteor on you. 🌙 DEATH: No thanks. 🌙 OFF LIMITS: Dorothea was raised as a pauper on the streets. She grew up hating the nobility and the systems of power that allowed them to trample the less fortunate. She's also a veteran of a five-year war, and has some trauma in the wake of her service. She will talk about these things, but they're difficult topics for her to discuss.

🌖 OOC

🌙 BACKTAGGING: Sure! 🌙 FOURTHWALLING: She's a star so she'll just assume you've heard about her from her days as an opera prima donna. 🌙 HANDWAVING/DROPPING THREADS: Sure, just hit me up on plurk or discord. mochihearts 🌙 CRAU: Rather not, thanks! 🌙 OFF LIMITS: I'm good, generally, and I'll let you know if you hit on any topic that I find uncomfortable. 🌙 OPTING OUT: Dorothea's history has a lot of pretty upsetting topics, including but not limited to: childhood abandonment, homelessness and poverty, assault, war, and deep self-esteem issues. If you'd like to opt out of any of those topics, or from interacting with her entirely, feel free to comment here. Comments will be screened!

🌖 FIRST IMPRESSIONS (OPTIONAL)

🌙 VISUAL: Dorothea is someone who is hard to miss, and she likes it that way. Standing at 5'8", she holds herself very confidently, head held high. Her chestnut brown hair is usually loose and lightly curled, swept down over her shoulders to leave her back exposed. Her eyes are a bright shade of emerald green, her skin pale. 🌙 FASHION: It's very important to her to always look her best. Dorothea loves opulent fashions, though the only outfits she currently has are her default dress and her dancer's garb. 🌙 DEMEANOR: Her normal way of being is a little sweet and a little sassy, always ready to flirt. 🌙 SOUND: Dorothea has a sweet-sounding, musical voice. She's an opera singer with a soprano/mezzo soprano range. Here's some of her dialog from the teatime mini-game. 🌙 SCENT: Predominantly rose absolute, but with notes of citrus and amber. Maybe hints of ozone thanks to her lightning magic. 🌙 MENTAL ABILITIES/DEFENSES: She has neither telepathic ability nor the knowledge to defend against someone with telepathy. She's pretty garden-variety in that regard. 🌙 MAGICAL ABILITIES/DEFENSES: Dorothea is a powerful mage, able to use a whole host of black magic spells (from fire to thunder to Agnea's Arrow) and a few faith healing spells as well. She can also use uh, magical dancing to help inspire people on the field of battle. 🌙 PHYSICAL ABILITIES/DEFENSES: Swordplay is a strength of hers, and she has decent speed and dexterity, but magic is her true focus. She'll fight armed combatants with a weapon but she'd rather fry you with a thoron bolt. It's worth noting that she has no abnormal or superhuman abilities here--she's just trained hard to be a proficient fighter. ORIGINAL CODE CREDIT
