fata viam invenient.

saintsdawn.

  private, selective.  
original character of dungeons & dragons.

a study in: the sacrificial lamb and the executioner. the scapegoat and the swordslayer. martyrdom as a curse, and the misfortune of repeated history. how a girl turns into a snarling wolf. the blessing of dawn as a new beginning, and the violence of the rising sun.

// 001 : activity.       my time here is sporadic at best, and i prefer to approach at a leisurely pace. this isn't my only blog, and while i am dedicated to my original character, i can also be found on @everydale. my tardiness isn't an expression of disinterest, and i will never be upset at someone for taking their time.but while i'm lenient with time, i do ask that i'm at least met in the middle when it comes to plotting. if i notice that interest and effort are one-sided, it's likely that i'll step away and/or unfollow.// 002 : following.       due to past experiences this blog is private and selective. if i do not follow back within a week, please know that it isn't personal.have your age available. due to the content of the setting(s) and my own age, i am not comfortable interacting with minors.i do not and will not entertain bigotry of any kind. if i see it, i'll block. if your behavior makes me uncomfortable, i'll block. and while i would like to know if i am interacting with someone who has proven to be harmful to the community, i would like to kept out of interpersonal troubles between writers.// 003 : content.       be warned that this blog could contain triggering themes and material. i will be using the tag trigger tw. if needed, don't hesitate to reach out!religion and discussions of religion are frequent on this blog.while using the setting of dungeons & dragons as a backbone, i also take inspiration from several sources of folk horror.

// 004 : writing.       my formatting is minimal. this includes regular sized text, bolded/italicized words for emphasis and thoughts, and single spacing between quotations and dialogue.the easiest way to kickstart an interaction is to send in a prompt. they never expire, and i encourage you to turn them into threads. starter calls will be rare. i am always available for plotting, and my ims are always open. my discord is available to mutuals upon requestion.i won't write explicit nsfw threads. i don't mind the moments before and after and while i can handle the occasional prompt, i have no desire to write full-fledged threads.// 005 : shipping.       building dynamics is my favorite part of writing! antagonistic, familial, platonic and everything in-between are welcomed. with that said, shipping is on the table. if you think it could work, don't hesitate to reach out!with regards to bramble: this blog is centered around florence, but mentions of bramble will be frequent. he is important to florence's story as a whole, just as they are to his. in most verses, one isn't without the other; consider this before committing to romancing florence.

001   :   arc i.       you were born in the dark of winter. howling wind and the popping of wood was the world's greeting; fear began its slow approach. your mother kept you close, anxieties flooding her thoughts. she prayed for you to have a simple life. but your father wanted you to stretch your wings, eager to teach you to teach you to hunt. you grow, and you learn that your hands fit perfectly around a sword.002   :   arc ii.       dread was a constant companion. it hovered over the shoulder. it lurked in the dark corners of corridors. it crept closer and closer until its claws caught your hand, and then your life changed. home wasn't the carved, painted wooden beams, but the candle lit altar and creaking wood of vallaki's church. its priest took you in - favor of a favor, promising an old friend. time with him is short, but he will be the catalyst of your devotion.003   :   arc iii.       you are young, but you are sent to krezk. three months are spent with family you hardly knew; cousin and grandmother, both small lights in the mist. and then came your magic. sparks and burns and you can never remember how it happened, but you found yourself behind the walls of the abbey. have you walked these halls before?004   :   arc iv.       the sword is an extension of yourself. the people of vallaki - of barovia are your wards, but the arrival of stumbling adventurers uproot your path.
