She's fought undead and corrupted creatures, and is used to violence being part of her life and world situation. War crimes, murder, assassination, possession, betrayal, she's seen and done quite a bit.

General Character Permissions

Flirt

Go for it; she's likely to flirt back without being serious.

Hug

Hug with caution if not close, if a friend or someone she looks after, hug freely but be amused at her expression when she's caught off guard.

Kiss

You know what, go ahead and try, how she responds will depend on the situation and circumstances.

Make Sweet, Sweet Love

I'm not particularly invested in threading anything out without relationship buildup and she's Hung Up on Solas, but I'm not opposed to you know, her working through things!

Fight

Yes. Win, lose, she'll do as she can.

Injure

Yes. Though I'd prefer no further permanent physical incapacitations.

Mindread

Surface thoughts are always free game. Let me know if your character wants to deep dive!

Kill

If we have some compelling reason to! Otherwise, no thank you.

Player Preferences

Backtags

Yes. I'm old, slow, and distracted by life constantly; I'm happy to backtag with everyone.

Threadhops

Yes. Generally unlikely to be an issue, but anything public (texting threads especially) is game. Action/prose that isn't set up to be interrupted, please do not.

Fourthwalls

Yes, though she'll not necessarily thank you for it, and find it callous to say.

Crosscanon

Yes. Bring on all the crosscanon CR, memes or otherwise.

Player Information

Contact

PM to this journal is most efficient!

Pacing

Sporadic, good weeks I'm at least one tag round a day.

Brackets/Prose

I'm good with either, and have no preference except to avoid brackets done entirely in italics. My old eyes struggle too much with it!
