@IcePezz I thought I should create a character that is more likely to be involved in the thick of things. Lucinda and Nyarlathotep are more like overseers, so I wanted Mercury to be someone who I could use to form relationships with other characters.

@Frengo Yeah that's pretty much it. I do consider myself a Demisexual irl to an extent. Although at this point I've seemed to accept that I don't really fit into just one sexuality umbrella term so idrk what to tell people anymore...

I guess this is just a little bit of self projection onto my character.

@Leslie Hall Having read the whole thing, I have to say I really like Mercury. I can tell you've put a great deal of effort into crafting him, and if I had to guess, I'd wager you rewrote it or modified it a fair few times to reach that level of perfection. It's a great addition, and I think it's just what this RP needs.

A knight in shining armour, with prominent lashes ;)

I like his ability too, that's quite cool, and I imagine it'd be really handy in a fight.

Could he summon a remnant, and have it just stand still? Say if he wanted to lure his opponent into a trap.

@Frengo Thank you, I'm glad you like him... (and his lashes).

At the moment, his remnants can only exist for a very short amount of time. They also appear as spirits, all translucent and wispy, so they can't really be used for deception.

@Leslie Hall in the process of typing this, rpg decided to be stupid, so this may seem late and out of place. But I am a huggy person, so please don't scream if I just reach out and hug you :p

This was in response to your post after mine: You are who you are, and you love who you love. Simple as that. Some things you just can't categorize :)

@IcePezz You are absolutely right about that! Labels stopped mattering to me a long time a go. (Aka the day I learnt not to give a f***)

@Doc Doctor

Maybe we can use him as something hounding the characters searching for the Deiran. The mcguffin of the story. Particularly if I bring the search out of the capital city of Clandstein, but it definitely works better in my brain if the character was more of a normal sentient being and less uncaring, unattached monster.

@Leslie Hall

Off to read your character.

@Leslie Hall

I like him but two things stick out to me. And neither of them are a big deal. He apparently uses his appearance title for his benefit with the ladies, though given his sexuality this does not make sense to me so much as he would not be attracted to them without an emotional connection. Does he just get emotionally attached easily or often? The other thing is a lack of a talents section, but you've gone so far off the beaten track as far as character sheet every time now I wonder if I can really hold it against you.

@Cultural Titan Oh the talents aren't in there because I haven't finished writing him yet. I will add that in there along with a Bio soon (And anything else).

Also in regards to the sexuality thing, all I can really say is that I don't think his sexuality defines entirely how he acts around people of the opposite gender. While he is mostly a Demisexual and the majority of his sexual desires do stem from this, I don't think it's going too far to say that sometimes he just has normal urges like everyone else.

I could have worded it better, but I just wanted to point out that Mercury is really still a young man. He's in his early 20's his sexuality can't really be defined perfectly yet. Which might beg the question "Why bother putting it in there in the first place?"... _{i like irrelevant details...}

He won't be going around womanizing everything in eyesight, but he's still just like any other guy with regular urges even if he does experience desire in a much different way.

TL:DR - I don't really want to limit him to one sexuality, so I probably shouldn't have mentioned his sexuality in the first place. *cough*

I hope that makes sense and I'm not just rambling.

@Leslie Hall

its fine so long as there's a reason. Let me know when he's done though.

@Cultural Titan
It is sentient and caring. It just cares about eating and killing though.

when you leave all your christmas shopping 'till the last minute

@Leslie Hall lol I think this was the first year I got everything done with a couple of days to spare lol

@IcePezz I'm just about to head out for food shopping. Hopefully it won't be too busy. It will be...

might be interested. will need to think about it though.
