Should you fight my characters? Charr Flavor!

Inspired by @bluebudgie I thought the formula of this was so rad I wanted to make it for my own kiddos!

Sigilis Forgemuzzle

Fight Music: Very Noise - Igorrr

Should you fight Sigilis? Sure! I mean she loves fighting so if you're trying to teach her a lesson you'd be failing in that area. Yes in that sometimes she gets too full of herself as a brawler. So sure go for it as long as your intent is to fight not kill. If you're going for KILL please realize you will have a 9ft 650lb blood frenzied Galla coming after you for the rest of your days.

Who initiates the battle? She does! Likely she initiates it by saying something rude or unpleasant to you and then dares you to do something about it. It would be better to do this someplace with others, in case you need back up.

Who would win? If you can get her from a distance it's an easy fight for you, but you're probably out of luck in melee. Disassembling tanks has lead to some scary upper body strength.

Galla Strangleforge

Fight music: They Hit Without Warning - Edward Bradshaw

Should you fight Galla? No. For your own health and if you value your organs being in your body, no. She keeps to herself, keeps a cool head, and would rather not engage if possible given her tendency for frenzy. Out of all of my kiddos, she is the scariest in terms of sheer strength and combat ability.

Who initiates the battle? You would have to really REALLY try to get her to fight you. And honestly if you're trying that hard you have it coming. She's logical and calm - not one who gets worked up easily.

Who would win? Galla. Years of pit fighting and then being the Pact's combat instructor means she knows the dirty way of fighting, the survival way, and the proper way. And will use all of them. The word Strangle in Strangleforge is not just there for looks. If you're lucky she'll leave enough left of you for your family to claim.

The rest is under the cut to save your dash!

Elder Parteira (Party)

Battle music: Rise to Glory - Earth

Should you fight Party? Do you want to fight the village midwife? Do you want to fight the one that's done almost all the rearing of cubs for some 30 plus years? I mean she can be testy and crabby at times. But you realize everyone born in her village is going to come after you now that they are an adult. Would not advise it.

Who initiates the battle? Likely you did, she doesn't have time for wasting energy on skirmishes, she's got cubs to feed and dams to help.

Who would win? You probably have better mobility than she does, her joints aren't what they used to be. But get yourself cornered and you're in for a good walloping. Not to hurt you, but to teach you some damn manners.

Valens Forgedance

Battle Music: Bossa Dorado - Dave Martone

Should you fight Valens? They can be a prankster at times and it can be annoying. A fair fight as a show of strength would not be amiss, just be careful that you aren't too hard on her. There are the 3 aforementioned Charr that will have your head if you actually hurt her.

Who initiates the battle? I think it would probably be her wanting to spar and test her abilities out that's she's learned. Typically it wouldn't come to you trying to fight them because they've pissed you off there are some steps in the middle.

Who would win? What Valens lacks in strength she makes up for with agility. She would be dancing and evading all of your attacks until you get tired - but if you managed to get a single good hit in on her, you would probably win. She would very enthusiastically shake your hand for you winning - good fight! Good fight!

Larthi Glimmerforge

Battle music: World Turns - Rival Consoles

Should you fight Larthi? I mean it wouldn't hurt anything, it's existence is already sort of a blip in the world, a coding error if you will. I can't see why you would want to though, all of it's moves are defensive and blocking with shields and time manipulation to not be where your attacks land. So should you? I mean you can, but you're not going to really gain anything from it.

Who initiates the battle? You would have to, it doesn't do fighting. Having witnessed the end of all things puts conflict into a perspective of being pointless.

Who would win? No one. I mean it's a 50/50 chance that it will get ported to another place in time in the middle of your fight so basically no one wins. On the chance that it does stay around, you'd likely get bored of attacking and having it not do anything. It's not like Larthi even evades it just blocks every one of your attacks. You would get bored. It would already be bored.

Philetus Hearthmend

Battle music: Bone Marrow (Instrumental) - Protest The Hero

Should you fight Phil? The only reason you have to fight Phil is if you're a Charr fundamentalist who still thinks all Flame Legion is evil and wicked, or you're a human Separatist. Otherwise, no don't fight him, he's a big soft goofy guy.

Who initiates the battle? You would have to go above and beyond to do something to make him fight you - like attack someone he cares for. He doesn't always even get that someone is trying to start something, to be honest.

Who would win? It depends on why the fight started. If you were just trying to piss him off, then you would likely win because he would take it easy on you and let you beat him. But If you were doing something that made him go into protective of others mode (first of all I have questions) but then no you are not winning. He is a Flame Shaman Elementalist, that only uses Fire and has been mastering it his whole life. He can hold magma with his bare paws and shape it into weapons, with no injuries to himself. Chances are you are going to have spires of solidifying magma piercing you like a pincushion.

probably not a particularly hard truth ask, but sigilis, what's your favorite music? is there a particular type that's always going to make you dance, or does anything work? :) @kerra-and-company

"Music?" She scratches her jaw in thought. "As long as it's got a good drumline and a solid rhythm I don't care if it's some human wailing like they've got a pole up their ass or that weird techno-shit that some of the Asura seem to listen to. Drums? Check. A good rhythm? Check."

"An' also I like love songs - wait - burn me, I meant I like love songs. Fucks sake, fine. You got me, can't say it otherwise anyway 'cause of this damn truth juice, or whatever it is."

[uselessidiotsquad]

for your charr folks for the oc grouping thingy--biggest fans of candy/sweets/pastries (and what types) vs not-so-big fans? :) @kerra-and-company

Ooo thank you for the ask! Let's see...

Biggest Sweet Tooth:

Valens - will and can eat their body weight in candy.

Phil - likes more maple flavored or earthy flavored sweets.

Larthi - enjoys cool sweets like ice cream!

Neutral on sweets:

Sigilis - will eat sweets if they are there but doesn't make a b-line for them.

Ordia - likes sweet tea but that's about it.

Zoticus - only really likes a mint or something after he eats not like 'proper' sweets.

Galla - doesn't really like them but if something is sweet, she won't refuse the food.

Dislikes sweets:

Elder Parteira - hurts her teeth to eat sugary things so she avoids it.

Vissenta - just finds them to be a bit underwhelming, she prefers spicy and savory.

Semni - doesn't have much in the way of taste anymore most of her taste buds have already gone caput so no point to eating them.

Soft Thoughts

It was 2am when I started writing this and I'm still attacked by thoughts of soft. Thinking about how some of my beebs express love/affection but in like more modern ways. Under the cut because it got lengthy. Might add more beebs later.

Being loved by Sigilis is a whirlwind. It's chaos and laughing at falling over drunk in the middle of the night. It's cleaning engine grease off of clothes and sweeping up broken beer bottles. It's her picking you up unexpectedly and trying to stop laughing enough to yell at her to put you down. With Sigilis it's also a lot of sex. It's none of your shirts being wrinkle free and last minute road trips. It's her forgetting your birthday until 3am when she drags you out of bed to light fireworks in an abandoned parking lot. It's cherry bombs in your shitty boss's toilet and bloody knuckles (and maybe an arrest warrant) but not hearing anything from your asshole uncle again. It's promises and pacts said while slurring speech and laughing drunk that you both mean. It's loud confessions in the day and quiet truths in the dark. It's spilling your guts in a messy and raw way but still being there for each other. It's waking up hungover and eating leftovers of questionable age.

And for contrast we have Riag. He's a far cry from the storm of Sigilis and is more of an undercurrent. It's his soapbox diatribes about something obscure that you try very hard not to laugh it. It's reading body language and having whole conversations without saying anything. It's finding new cups and plates every few weeks but knowing enough to not ask why. It's mock-angry fake arguments that end when you make the face that he has back at him and he breaks into laughter. It's old photos and letters kept in a shoebox under the bed. It's messages asking if you got home okay. It's him leaving whatever he was doing in a mess, with no further explanation needed if you say you need him. It's random, small gifts at any occasion he could make up a reason for. It's staying up with him on one of his bad nights, despite his protest. Even though you end up falling asleep - he still appreciates it more than he will tell you. It's a lot of both of you not knowing what to say but realizing it doesn't have to be said after all.

6 & 10 for Unburiable and Warcat Wives!

Asks ahoy! Ty fren!

Unburiable:

6. When did they realize they loved each other?

Riag realized it right after retaking Claw Island (as in minutes post battle) and then immediately tried to forget that he realized it. Proceeding to make it *way* more awkward that it needed to be for a long time. He can't fake anything and basically everyone knew anyway.

Trahearne had sort of a two-for-one realization. He was aware of his feelings even before the Pact had officially formed but is way better about being 'okay not the time or place for this rn' but really had to sit down and admit it after the cleansing of Orr. No longer distracted by his Wyld Hunt it became v apparent that his feelings weren't just gonna go away on their own.

10. What are some non-sexual activities they do together? 

For general, being quiet in the same space as each other, with Trahearne reading and Riag repotting plants or gardening. They're not a couple that chatters constantly with quips, a few random exchanges here and there when one of them gets on a soapbox but that's it. As for intimate non-sexual, very rarely Riag will just ask if he can sleep with his head in Trahearne's lap - and asks him about random things. Less because he's riveted in the scholars research on the necromancy in the Crystal Desert and more just to hear him talk.

Warcat Wives:

6.

Sigilis knew from when they were cubs, like WAY back in the day but was dating Reeva anyway. Not to say she didn't love Reeva, she did, but there was like a decent part of her distracted by Galla for a long time. Reeva knew she was only getting like 80% of Sigilis, and was fine with it, the warband was all tight knit and on good terms.

Meanwhile it took Galla a really long time, she hadn't really thought of it (she considered the bawdy engineer out of her league) until they were the only ones left in their warband.

10.

Man if you are in a relationship with Sigilis you better be ready to dance at stupid hours. She's not a 'dancer' (like Valens) but she gets full of the spirit and just has to move. The engineer will drag her wife (by the braids or horns if she has to) into dancing with her. Music helps but she can just get full of it with no music and all mood too! Most of her dancing is 'dad at a barbecue who has had entirely too much beer to care'.

Galla gives really strong massages, like none of this acupressure light work, when you're dealing with Charr everything has to be a bit tougher. She'll often give her wife back massages (which start as non-sexual intimacy but does not always end that way). A lot of Sigilis' stress she carries in her low back. It is a mutual thing though, Sigilis tries to do the same but she's just not as skilled at it.

💘💋🧠 for Sigilis whomst I adore with all my heart and think she's very cool

Bonus 👂for Vissenta 👁️👄👁️

The BFBD of our hearts <3 ty for the ask!

💘 : Is your OC a very good flirt? Are they charming?

Man Sigilis is def an acquired taste and is not everyone's cup of tea when it comes to flirting. She goes as raunchy as she can with her flirts, sort of gauging peoples responses as a way to see if she should pursuit them. People who get offended/alarmed by it are written off immediately. She's charming if your type is bawdy, uncouth, and brazen. It's less coy flirting and more hitting on people/obvious sexual suggestions. I think she's charming in her own way, she's certainly endearing.

💋 : Is your OC a good kisser? How do they do it?

Short answer, yes. Long answer, yes as long as you don't mind the sloppiest Charr in Tyria. Sigilis is downright filthy when it comes to kissing - there is always tongue (and Charr tongues are long mind you, expect to have one halfway down your throat), usually teeth. She treats kissing like a contest and by gods she's gonna win. Sigilis has a tendency to pick up the person she's kissing (Galla being the exception just because she's v big) and putting them on something or pinning them to something. There are rarely 'romantic affectionate' kisses, those are far and few between, most of them are preludes to something more active if you will.

🧠 : What is your OC’s most mentally attractive attribute?

I would say her foul sense of humor and bluntness, and blatant disregard for standards of behavior. She takes everything in stride and even trying to argue with her often doesn't work because she's so unphased by things. That type of mental fortitude is attractive in my book. She takes very few things personally, so arguing is a contest not actually something productive. There's something very charming about her in that she knows what the general expected behavior is, she just thinks its stupid, and chooses to do the opposite.

Character Interview - With a Twist!

I thought it would fun to have two of my characters involved in an interview! Thanks to my randomizing wheel, we got the Interviewer is Sigilis and the Interviewee is Mhonde! Engineer time!

Under the cut since it's a bit long! Consider this a tag to do one yourself if it sounds interesting!

Sigilis: I'm Sigilis, but let's get right to it. So! Rat! Get to talkin'. Who are you and whose shoe did you get wiped off of?

Mhonde: My name's Mhonde, I'm a formerly-holoforge-smith current Mechanist. College of Statics.

Sigilis: Great, great, about as interesting paint drying, but great. I said who are you not what's your job! What do you do for fun besides steal cheese and shit in the pantry?

Mhonde: Oh. Well... I-I make golems? And sort of cobble them together to be interesting rather than the most efficient. Doesn't always win over my krewe but I'd rather have some of my machines go out in a big celebratory spark ball than get rusted into obsolescence.

Sigilis: Now you're speakin' my language. Go big or go home, I like that. ...Squeaky, you do know I'm over here right? Or are you talking with the other molecules?

Mhonde: Oh, sorry. Can't see.

Sigilis: What? Like at all?

Mhonde: Not a lot. Holoforge. Turns out solid light constructs are not as forgiving to the oculars as I had hoped.

Sigilis: Balls, sorry to hear that, rat. You ever get up to any fun with it? Like pranks and shit?

Mhonde: (laughs) My ears, yes. The amount of staring contests I've won has got to be something of a record. Plus I may or may not use it for... admiring Raja.

Sigilis: You have my interest. Who is she? Or he. They. Burn me, you know what I mean. Who're you ogling?

Mhonde: She's my... um, girlfriend? Partner? Romantic associate?

Sigilis: Don't hurt yourself. So she's your girl. What's she like?

Mhonde: She defies all logic in the best way. Indescribable.

Sigilis: Well give it a try at least, fucks sake.

Mhonde: She's passionate about everything, outspoken. Turns away from positions of respect and authority - even when her whole family is big on their historical narrative. She's confident and I guess people think she's intimidating but she's really not. She's -

Sigilis: Alright, alright I gotta stop you there. You mentioned historical narrative. Mind layin' that out for me in common speak?

Mhonde: Legends? Tales and stories? All of her family and her people are big into the tales they craft in their life and then leave behind.

Sigilis: ...are you telling me this Raja of yours is Norn?

Mhonde. Yes. If there's a problem with that I have several golems that would be happy to instruct you otherwise.

Sigilis: (uproarious laughter) Easy! I'm not one to be fussin' or poke at who people choose to be with. I like your style. Not scared to hand someone their own ass if they breathe wrong about your girl. We're one in the same on that one! I'm also an Engineer, though more along the lines of a Scrapper type as you might of guessed from my little gadgets flying 'round.

Mhonde: (smiling in good humor) I hadn't even seen them to be honest.

Sigilis: Right then, 'fore I let you scram out of here and back to your hole in the wall, I got one last question for you.

Mhonde: Yes?

Sigilis: Bombs or flamethrower?

Mhonde: Bombs undoubtedly. Half of my projects turn into them whether I want them to or not!

Sigilis: Good answer! Thanks for wasting time with me, Squeaky, I'll drink to you and your Raja tonight at the tavern.

Random thoughts on hugging some of the plampts and warcats because I am soft and full of emotions today.

OC's and Hugs

Sigilis gives bone crushing bear hugs. She always smells like oil and stale beer and sometimes BO. Getting hugged too hard? Too bad. If you're not out of breath and sore was it REALLY a good hug.

Galla, awkward hugs. She's big and knows she's big, she doesn't want to hurt you so it's tricky. Usually a one armed side hug. She usually smells like weapon polish.

Valens - bombastic, swinging you around by your arms hugs. Very enthusiastic usually will make both of you dizzy. Doesn't usually smell like anything but her fur is very sparse and scratchy which can make it a little itchy.

Party - depends on what you need. She's refined the art of Hugs having to deal with a wide range of cubs. Supportive gentle hug? You got it. Rallying tight hug? No problem. Not a fan of hugs? Sure thing, a pat on the back for you. She smells like saltwater and smoke.

Ordia doesn't hug people.

Ruby Aenn - anyone remember glomps? Behold the tiny red menace, who will run at you full speed to tackle you into a hug. She's the biggest hugger but will respect boundaries if you tell her. She smells like cloves and anise. Will also lift you up off the ground to hug you if she can which is mortifying since she's very short.

Dion - doesn't know how to hug and is too shy to. Will give a thumbs up and maybe a nervous pat on the shoulder but that's about it. Smells like rain and the woods.

Glan - dramatic mf is a sucker for big sweeping hugs and making it a scene. Quite literally would sweep you off your feet but mainly to annoy you. Has been known to pick people up and carry them over his shoulder just to get a rise out of them. Smells like black tea.

Riag - once a huge hugger, and a hug with the whole body type of person, now touch avoidant if possible. Isn't always good at verbally comforting so usually will try to help by ways that aren't verbal/physical hug. Doesn't have a smell.

Dei - Smells very faintly of hyacinth flowers but also coppery sap. They have never been much of a hugger and prefer verbally comforting people if they can. However, when they do hug they are always the last to let go. Given that they are tall and lanky/bony, hugs can be a little awkward.

Oh my god I just realized how much Sigilis would *fucking hate* Joon. All priss and prim and 'I single handedly made technology better'.

Sigilis, observing a jade mech: You humans didn't do too bad of a job, I gotta say, looks better than the rats mechs. However you're still lacking in the ancient Charr art of soldering bofa into your tech.

Joon: Bo-?

Sigilis: BOFA DEEZ NUTS HAH! FUCKIN' GOT HER!

Sigilis has named her mech B O F A in honor of it and she's not allowed in Daigo Ward anymore. If you ask her Bofa stands for Barely Operational Fucking Automaton.

RANDOM QUESTION FROM OASIS! what is the most unimportant hill they will die on? An opinion that they have thay they will NEVER CHANGE but its really not that important in the Grand scheme of things.

Random Hills to die on! @moonlit-grove

For Sigilis: Horses. They don't exist, they are mythical made up creatures. She will debate their existence until she's blue in the face, even if she sees one she'll deny it and claim it's half centaur and half kirin with a large dose of ugly.

For Ruby: KALE SLANDER. She doesn't believe it to be a real of member of the cole family of plants like cabbages and broccoli, and will talk shit about it at all hours. It's not a REAL cole - it's some abomination. 'But it's healthy!' well so is water but you can drown in less than 4 inches of it - what's your point it's a disgrace >:V

For Mhonde it's weird food combinations. His sense of taste for food is um 'adventurous' to say the least. And will die on the hill of 'anything is a dessert if i say it is and chocolate syrup is going on EVERYTHING'. He'll argue semantics about what makes it a 'dessert'.

For Riag, it is the idea of wearing socks to bed. He thinks it's one of the utmost crimes to the world. Or when people take their shoes off in the house but leave socks on and walk around in them. ??? You're going to get your socks gross and THEN wear them to bed? Nasty and unacceptable.

Ruby Rambles: Sleep Edition.

After waking up for the 4th day in a row to solid rain, it makes me start pondering about some of the beebs and their sleep schedules, lacks thereof, and what makes them snoozy.

Ruby:

She has to be near one of her pets, ideally holding onto it. This means she'll often forsake her normal bed and sleep in weird and uncomfortable places just to be closer to her pet. She doesn't really have a preferred sleeping position, it's just whatever let's her be near her animals.

The exception is Eldri, her smokescale, who does not like her being near him and so on those days she will sleep in a bed and he will be on the far side of the room. Ruby falls asleep quickly, sleeps solidly, and tends not to have any dreams.

(her favorite pet to sleep with is either Aeren, who will snuggle with her happily - or Mingo because he will wrap his long neck around her and do a big bird hug, plus Mingo is very warm).

Dion:

The Bog Boys sleep pattern is very flexible, he tends to not have a routine and goes by more when it feels right to wake up. Any time it rains he gets very snoozy, as long as there is no thunder. Being so big and in a small house, he sleeps sort of curled up into a loose ball, just because then he manages to fit better. He wakes easily but is a fairly heavy sleeper anyway.

Dion doesn't have any dreams at all, due in part to his rather unique connection with the Dream and because his mind just doesn't use it as a filter for the days events. He snores, no one has told him because no one has heard it, but he does snore.

Sigilis:

My bawdy, ballsy Warcat has had insomnia since she was a cub and it's not gone away yet. It was at first the reason why she started drinking but then it just became a habit. Most of the time she spends it trying to fix and work on her creations. But given that her mind also isn't all that nice to her after hours, she usually ends up drinking until she passes out just to get something close to sleep.

While it's not essential she sleeps way better next to Galla than she does on her own, part of the Warband training for safety is that being on your own = higher risk for attack. Plus, she'll deny it to the grave and fuss the whole time, but she *loves* being the little spoon and it promptly shuts her brain down and she sleeps.

Galla:

Battle Bull of a Charr sleeps well almost at any given time. She can just decide to sleep in situations. Though Kalla can gossip and keep her awake, mostly she has no problems sleeping and nothing makes her super sleepy. She just decides it's time for sleep and then they presto she's asleep.

Dei:

They are a super light sleeper, but it's not falling asleep that so much the problem as it is staying asleep. Waking up multiple times for no apparent reason in the middle of the night is much more common than they would like it to be. Dei's a back sleeper, having tried other positions and ending up on their back by morning anyway.

The unfortunate purple is also a chronic overthinker which means waking up at 3am for no reason becomes doubly unpleasant when thoughts start racing again. Given their imagination, they do tend to have lots of dreams (and occasionally nightmares) but Dei doesn't usually remember them. Just that they had them, not exactly what it contained.

Sleeping with other people nearby tends to make it harder for them to actually let their guard down to rest. They've gotten so accustomed to keeping their illusions up that they stay up while asleep/unconscious unless they make a conscious decision to not keep them up before going to bed. Dei has a tendency to talk or at least mumble in their sleep.

Riag:

I've talked about grump's hot mess of a sleep schedule before but I'll go over some points again.

Sleep Schedule ABYSMAL.

Riag has chronic nightmares as well as sort of trained insomnia, given that night in the Verdant Brink is when things get even more dangerous, he's trained himself to not sleep at night. However, even though he's retired, that training hasn't left. Which results in him not sleep at all at night and screwing up his schedule even more. When he does sleep it's usually for brief naps during the day, of like a few hours here and there.

Basically stuck in Night Shift mode. His nightmares are less common now (meaning not almost every time he sleeps) but he still does get them at least a few times a week, which further makes him not inclined to try and rest more. He's not a graceful sleeper either, he tends to thrash and flail in his sleep. Riag has also found out that he can't really sleep with a blanket or sheet or anything of that nature, because since he flails a lot - it tends to get tangled. When tangled and unable to move, brain kicks into 'Oh Shit' mode and it usually sets off another nightmare (about being trapped in vines).

Riag's a side sleeper just because it's easier to have to get up and grab weapons at the drop of a hat if you're sleeping on your non-dominant side. He also has his hands balled into fists while he sleeps, which isn't good for them, but he can't seem to get it to stop. He also clenches his jaw and grinds his teeth - also not being pleasant upon waking when he starts the day feeling like he lost a fight.

🎵  🎁 for Riag and 💣 ⚓️ for warcat wives? :3c

Ty for the ask - sorry for delay, having laptop conniptions.

If ⭐is poor, ⭐⭐ is okay, and ⭐⭐⭐is excellent!

Riag:

🎵 — singing

⭐

Bless him, he's tone deaf as a rock. He knows it and everyone knows it so he doesn't torture them with his terrible singing voice.

🎁 — giving presents to others

⭐⭐⭐

One of the most competitive gift givers around. He *loves* it and is very good at it. It's one of the reasons why Wintersday is his favorite holiday, because he loves giving gifts. Not so much good at receiving them.

THE WIVES <3:

💣 — explosives

Sigilis ⭐⭐⭐

Galla ⭐

If you need something blown up Sigilis is your gal. She lives for artilery and bombs. Great at making and using them, her rocket turrets are the main reason she didn't get disciplinary action more from Iron because they were that damn good.

Galla is a brawler, not a bomber. She prefers to crush, strangle, and beat in melee than using any type of explosive.

⚓️ — sailing

Sigilis ⭐⭐

Galla ⭐⭐⭐

Sigilis isn't *bad* on a boat, exactly it's just that she's very bombastic and prone to breaking things. You don't want someone who punches holes in walls on your ship. She claims being drunk helps with 'sea-legs' because you're wobbling anyway.

Galla loves being on a boat and sailing as a whole. Navigation and submarines fascinate her and she has a nigh uncanny sense of direction at times. If you needed someone to man your ship - Galla is your lady.
