I just read through your Red HCs (you've persuaded me v v successfully), and I'm just that much more curious! Which house are you, and the rest of the boys? I'm a slytherin myself, so I wonder who I'd have to share a dorm with.

Persuasion success! (ง •̀ω•́)ง✧ And ahhhh the headcanon button, it’s been pressed in me, I’m all too happy to dish a little more :) Personally, I’m a Hufflepuff! I’ve always considered myself one, tbh, which is probably why I’ve done a lot of analysis on more ‘accurate’ characterizing for the houses for a long time. Also, I heckin’ love Slytherin-Hufflepuff friendships and the hilarity that absolutely ensues, so high five there~!

As for the other guys, here’s the list:

UT Sans: Slytherin

His form of leadership isn’t the obvious kind; he’s the group-project leader who while cracking jokes subtly steers everyone away from disaster, and manages to get the slacker to pull his own weight. He may look and act like a slacker himself, but underneath it all - ambition of all kinds is still ambition. Sans is a guy who can do whatever he sets his mind to; in the past, he worked as a scientist, later, he got himself and his brother their house in Snowdin, then found a way to keep them stable while Papyrus chases his dreams. He’s cunning as hell, more resourceful than most realize (hotcat, anyone?), and it literally takes murder for him to break a promise made to a loyal friend.

UT Pap: Ravenclaw

Pap is one of the wittiest characters in-game (everyone forgets his wordplay game, somehow), not to mention his dedication to his craft - puzzles - and his dedication to learning anything that will help him be a great Guard are key hints here. He’s extremely into coming at things with creative solutions, and you’re in for one hell of a shock if you don’t expect this Tall Friend to run laps around anyone literally with his clever insight and knowledge-hungry approach to life.

UF Sans: Hufflepuff

See this post for the full details ;) but to copy my summary: He’s a big toasted marshmallow, not looking to show off guts or to gain glory or ultimate knowledge, but to have a good time with good company, and’ll occasionally make sure the little guy isn’t being taken advantage of if anyone makes that mistake around him.

UF Pap: Gryffindor

Tall Dark and Spiky is the bravest, most daring, and secretly absurdly chivalrous skeleton you’ve ever met. He takes action on honed instinct, and each day around him is an adventure of some kind - he gets a rush from breaking into the unknown, is resolutely and brashly himself without shame, and no matter how many people he rubs the wrong way, no one can deny the guy’s got the courage worthy of a whole pride of lions.

US Sans: Gryffindor

Blue’s one of the few that can put Edge’s courage to test, let’s be real - just in the sense of comparison. He’s a charmer, bold, and will always tell people what he thinks - and won’t hesitate to step in the line of danger to do the right thing as he sees it. He’s smarter than he looks, but craves adventure and exploration - even when he’s studying/learning, you’ll half the time find him out on the rooftop, soaking in the sun, or chasing after adventure under the guise, or perhaps motto, of applied learning. Nothing holds this skeleton back.

US Pap: Hufflepuff

Not unlike Red, Stretch isn’t going through life for guts or glory; above all else, he wants to share good times with good friends. He’s a smart one, too, and while he’s laid back and easy going nearly to a fault on a lot of things, the things he’s interested in or the people he cares about will receive the full force of how hard he can work - and man, if you’re able to witness it, it kind of blows you away. He’s dedicated to the core when he’s got his soul set, and too… isn’t above a bit of mischief to level the playing field.

SF Sans: Slytherin

Now, this isn’t because Black is some sort of ‘ultra evil’ - not in the slightest. No, see, Black is perhaps the most cunning, most resourceful skeletons out there- with the scientific inclination of a Sans and the energy and dedication to his pursuits of a Papyrus, he readily and capably takes charge of many relevant endeavors. He’s proud because he knows he’s good - but he’s also willing to get better. He wants to be the best in what he does, plain and simple; but he’s also fiercely loyal, and if you manage to get close enough to earn his, then you’ve got an ally who’s ride or die. He’s always got a grasp on what’s going on, as intel is one of his strongsuits - frankly put, he’s the guy who knows the latest and knows how to get a job done. Any job. And if he doesn’t know, he’ll figure it out through and through. Black’s the true jack of all trades.

SF Pap: Gryffindor

While Russ may not always be ‘brave’ for what society views as the ‘right’ reasons, he’s bold. Certainly less outspoken than others, he has a better eye for observation, and knowing what’s on - and perhaps that’s why he’s always around when the best, most interesting and fun mischief is going down. He’s unapologetically himself, even if he doesn’t open up easy; he knows he won’t change, but he’s got a love of the rush of new and the feeling of being true to your instincts that has him fitting right in among the lions… especially with that sharp grin of his.

HT Sans: Hufflepuff

He’s nothing if not patient. Whether by necessity or nature, he’ll wait it out- and out, and out. Loyalty’s his brand, though for the longest time it was lost to anyone but his brother - with less reliable magic and a spotty memory, hard work - however slow - is something he’s used to. Frankly, in a surface scenario, he’s a sweetheart under all the dangerous jagged edges, if only he could be given a proper chance and enough stability to feel like this all isn’t going to end up a dream. In the end, a sunny afternoon catnap with a late lunch, maybe some chill music in the background and laidback jokes with a friend… that’s all he wants.

HT Pap: Ravenclaw

The tallest, biggest of all the sweethearts here is the type of Ravenclaw that’s in love with creativity and learning period. Sure, Underground - he also proved how deadly smart he could be even in a famine, how clever he truly was - but in a better place, he just loves trying new things. His favorites tend to involve puzzle-like thinking, any crafting/creative pursuit; and he may or may not be world-record-skilled at Rube Goldberg machines. In the end, though, he just has a clever, creative way at approaching everything in life, and a knack for challenging the assumed ‘best way’ of approaching anything. Whether for fun or in genuinely seeing a better/more interesting way of tackling an issue.

and I’ll copy/paste my previous post’s quick breakdown of how I breakdown the Houses for easier reference as to why I made these decisions ;)

(in italics = the main canonical descriptions from the books, and below those are my expansions based on better/accurate characterization & analysis.)

Gryffindor:

brave, loyal, courageous, adventurous, daring and chivalrous

prioritizes: instinctive action, exploration of the unknown, the rush of doing something exciting/new, boldness, being true to yourself

what they aren’t: the only good guys, knights in shining armor, complete idiots that only rush in without thought, the only ones willing to Get It Done

Ravenclaw:

wisdom, intelligence, creativity, cleverness and knowledge

prioritizes: seeking new knowledge (of any preferred field); creative solutions (absolutely including MacGyver-ing); challenging the presumed standard/status quo whether boldly or quietly; their preferred topic over others

what they aren’t: super geniuses, jack-of-all-trades, the only ones holding the single brain cell the whole group shares, aloof holier-than-thou types

Hufflepuff:

valuing hard work, dedication, patience, loyalty, and fair play

prioritizes: bonds with those they’re close to; Good Food, Good Drink, Good Company, Good Times™; the journey over the destination; a ‘fair shot’ (which may not look like ‘fair rules’ but could include questionable ‘levelling the playing field’ - a fair fight may include hair pulling or putting a brick in your purse…)

what they aren’t: the extras with nowhere else to go, total duffers/bland goody two-shoes, only here because they aren’t brave/smart/cunning, necessarily the nicest person you’ve ever met

Slytherin:

cunning, prideful, resourceful, ambitious, intelligent, and determined

prioritizes: clever approaches to a problem, leadership & being goal-oriented (large or small), speaking their mind (but holding their tongue if absolutely necessary), wit, cultivating personal interests, doing what it takes to get the job done, keeping a promise made, being aware of the lay of the land (real or metaphorical)

what they aren’t: … going to do is put up with This BS (whatever it may be); Evil™; the only ones to ever make questionable choices; completely content to live in a dank evil cave???; smooth charmers to a T (they definitely have niches)

They will attempt to compete again and again until they come first. Honesty Is A Virtue Truthfulness is a particular concern for Aries. No one should try to provoke their morality as they may take it personally. Aries wants to win what he or she deserves in every honest way possible without cheating. Cheating to win or to achieve something is not in Aries’ nature. Aries is sincere, frank and free from dishonesty or fraud. They will get what they want through honesty and hard work over and over again. Nobility, honesty, self-reliance, openness, and kindness are some of Aries’ best traits.

Metagaming: Using OOC information in roleplay. -Ex: Common situation is people taking OOC information about a character, then having their character know IC without interaction to learning the information. As well, your character is kidnapped and you ask your friends to get on to help rescue your said character, giving them information OOC as to where they are and so on.

Powergaming: Where you are being OP, in terms being unbeatable and very over powering to other players when you are not meant to be. -Ex: Your character has amazing talents and powers to the point that they can beat anybody without much effort, even beating God with ease even though they are level one and new. Including having no weaknesses. Another giving little to no chances for the other player to emote in a fight, all the while your character isn't suppose to be skilled while the other is, but even still you emote already killing them with one blow.

Roleplaying: Is a form of story telling using two or more people to help create said story. It can also be a form of acting using words as well the skill of story writing, may it be script style or paragraph format. RP is fully fictional, events happening within it happening to the characters and not in real life to people. An escape from reality to play as somebody or something else.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm a lover for RP and playing on one server can really end up becoming boring, so I look for new ones to try out. Also the fact bigger RP servers have more jerks and bad RPers, really BAD RPers. So finding this is a good new start, new people to meet, and different experience!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Personality: -Secretive- Lavina is a closed off type of person, raised not to disclose much about her own tribe or herself to others. "If they don't know anything about you, then how will they be able to get to you?" -Lavina. At least the upside is that if you tell her a secret, she'll keep it. Though, this doesn't mean to trust her fully.

-Closed Off- Being so secretive makes her to be a person to say little of herself, especially to people she distrust and barely even know. Though if you were to be somebody she knew for long amount of time, one to trust and rely on, then she may open up to you.

-Judgmental- She is one to judge a person by their cover, by how they carry themselves and how they act. Believing that your true first impression on others is your outer layer of yourself, which is why she makes sure she looks presentable and speaks with maturity. If you act childish, she'll see you as a child. If you act with manners, she'll see you as a well mannered person. If you dress properly and nicely, then she'll see you as a respectable person. So on and so forth.

-FreeSpirited- Lavina hates to be restrained from being able to go where she please, do what she please, or see what she please. This being a major factor caused by her past and her passion to learn more of the world. You could say she can't stay in one place for too long, otherwise she'll get antsy and start walking in circles if she can't leave. Because of this she refuses to even have another relationship, finding it to be like chains to her wrist and her neck, keeping her from what she truly loved. Freedom. The Great Unknown. Exploration. At heart and by heart she is a nomadic gypsy.

^ Bastille - Laura Palmer can express this part of her best ^: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApIZSDPdVCo&index=1&list=PL7cFwA-Zm0Z-yIIlcEitLaEUGoCrzOvkF

-Motherly- Despite her secretiveness and closed off nature, it can been seen through her treatment to plants and animals that she is motherly! This can be seen easily with children, caring for them and even playing with them. It doesn't show easily with adults however, believing that adults should be treated as adults, not mothered like children, but in dire needs Lavina will become one to care for somebody.

-Insecure- Lavina is one about beauty and looking to your up most best, so she is insecure about the scars she gains and tries to hide them and find ways to rid of them, worried of the judgement from others. If she has to perform a dance or song with exposed skin, then she'll wear makeup to cover the areas with scars. Otherwise, if she is alone then the scars do not matter to her and she is usually covered head to toe anyway.

(There is more, but I'll leave it off here.)

Some Traits: --Positive-- -Adventurous -Passionate -Daring -Serious -Spontaneous

--Negative-- -Aloof -Hidebound -Insecure -Irritable -Strong-willed

--Neutral-- -Sarcastic -Quiet -Invisible -Hypnotic -Deceptive

Appearance: I'm able to draw and will save you the trouble of having to read endless descriptions. Link: https://68.media.tumblr.com/596c30b401229555f330d8a12107f161/tumblr_ovkvqaVd9y1wyacruo1_540.png

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Note: This character was inspired by Gypsy history and fire dancing. Top half will be about what she grew up in and below will be her personal history. Sorry for the amount you have to read, but there is a bit to explain for the idea of this character.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Gypsy Ways:

If you asked Lavina where she was from, she wouldn't be able to tell you and only say, "I have no true home and no true roots set in one place. I've been everywhere my feet could carry me thus far and set my home to that of anywhere under the sky." The reason to why would be the obvious, she was a gypsy. Never truly staying in one place for too long and surviving in the world by more traditional ways, even her accent sounding foreign along with one of her languages that would be of old elvish tongue. The gypsies ways rooted in the old culture of elves before the wars, before the mix of cultures as races joined each other through kingdoms, and before the evolution of science and technology. Wanting nothing more than to make sure their ways of life wasn't forgotten and they weren't brought into the mess that was created, but this doesn't mean they never changed in some ways and not make their own culture.

At first they only worshiped one god, Falena, but then the group of elves started to admire the moon and love it's beauty in the night sky. Slowly they became lovers and worshipers of the moon goddess, Arteniah, because of the effect the moon had on the tides and the light reflected off her moon within the dark. Though, they couldn't simply give love to the moon without some thanks to the burning bright sun, after all it was because of the sun they could travel easily unlike in the dark. Soon they would make dances and songs to performer for the gods they loved, using fire with their routines in dance for the sun, beautiful haunting songs for the moon, and instrumental music for nature. Though, they were ones to also celebrate life and death, but they never considered to worship Sogmir; same for Asla for her fire, even though they use it with their worship and during the night as light.

With their new found ways of life and their own traditions, they would then use their performances to exchange for coin, food, skills in craft, and needed materials. It was found to be a success as they continued to travel all around as a nomadic tribe, to this day never settling in one place. Though as they slowly made their way to connect back with the masses, they would notice that their physical appearance has change to that of ash grey skin and colorless white hair over time. Why? Nobody knows and could only assume it be caused by being outside constantly, or a change made by one of the gods.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Who Lavina Became:

Lavina having been born and raised as a gypsy, would take on training at a very young age to become one of the performers, but not by her choice as all girls were expected to learn. Luckily she was one to enjoy fire dancing and singing, having a burning like passion to put her energy into each dance and try to experiment to make better routines. In her free time she would study all types of plants she'd gathered through their travels, testing on various small animals captured to see if some were poisonous and if any could be used as medicine. Even while searching for creatures she would find a new interest in the venom snakes have, curious if it could be beneficial in some way. Due to the tribe never allowing written journals to keep their ways secret, Lavina would have to memorize all she learned the best she could as her research went on.

At one point her elder sister would gift her a small journal with an ink and quill, letting her to be able to write down her knowledge without having to remember everything.
