Timezone: CST
Contact: [plurk.com profile] robokatar; discord upon request

« IC »

Hugging: Yes
Kissing: Yes; but give me a head's up if it's anything other than friendly cheek/forehead/hand kissing because Shuichi will attempt to pull away/cover his mouth/push your character away/etc
Flirting: Yes; it'll either go over his head completely or he'll get flustered and immediately bring up the fact that he has a boyfriend
Romance: No; Shuichi is already in a relationship
Sex: Ask; Might be willing to do some threesome/group stuff, but if you're looking for something with just Shuichi, the answer is no

Fighting: Ask; I'll probably say yes, I just like to have a head's up about this sort of thing
Injury: Ask; Same as above
Death: No

Mind-reading: Yes
Manipulation: Ask; Same as fighting/injury

Misc: Shuichi was specifically designed to be an androgynous character (and his voice does nothing to help his looks in that regard), and I will 100% not be offended if your character can't figure out his gender or mistakes him for a girl upon first meeting him.

« DEMON POWERS »

Shuichi is a CRAU from Ryslig, that jamjar where everyone turns into man-eating monsters. Noctium has taken away the man-eating part, but he's still very much a monster 24/7/365. Specifically, he's a demon, which comes with a number of spells that are specifically meant to be used on others.

I always ask before using these in a thread (which rarely happens since Shuichi is actually The Worst Demon), but if you want to go ahead and opt out of some or all of them here that's okay too! As a note, if your character's species is something holy in nature, these won't work on them at all.

Possession; This involves total body control and the possessee is aware of what's going on around them, but unable to do anything to stop themselves. Communication between Shuichi and the possessee is impossible, as is mind-reading, however Shuichi can feel any strong emotions the possessee may be having for the duration of the possession. He can be exorcised out, if the time limit or his Manna reserves don't kick him out first. He can only do this once per day for up to an hour
Binding; renders a person completely and totally incapable of autonomous motion.
Illusory power boosts; Things like removing the target's fear or spiking their adrenaline...chemical/emotional things that make someone FEEL more powerful without actually making them more powerful. He can't give you muscles or make your magic spells hit harder or anything like that, sorry.
Emotional influence; Specifically negative emotional influence. Shuichi is capable of causing a person's emotions to go out of control and trend towards darker thoughts. He NEVER uses this power intentionally. However, because he himself suffers from anxiety and depression, he can accidentally use it with those emotions specifically. Think of it like a leak-and-infect sort of situation. If he gets particularly anxious or depressed, those feelings can seep into anyone who happens to be near him at the time. The severity of that infection is completely up to the player, it can be something as minor as feeling inexplicably nervous for a time to something as major as suicidal ideation.

Sorry for the word vomit there, but hopefully that all makes sense. If you have any questions, feel free to ask here. I won't be at all offended if you opt out of these, nor will it cause any sort of IC issue since in Ryslig these powers were only guaranteed to work on NPC humans. Their efficiency being hit or miss on other monsters has always been a thing and Shuichi fully expects that to be the case in Noctium as well.

Backtagging: Yes; I LIVE FOR BACKTAGGING
Threadjacking: Yes
Fourth-walling: Yes

Format: I'm okay with both brackets and prose; I have a slight preference for brackets just because the formatting is easier to read but honestly the content/process of writing my tags doesn't differ with formatting. My prose tags just don't have the brackets.

CRAU: Shuichi himself is a CRAU so it would be pretty hypocritical of me to say no here.

Shipping Preferences: As mentioned above, Shuichi is already in a relationship with Kokichi and the chances of that changing are slim to none. However, given the setting, casual threesomes (or foursomes with another couple) are potentially an option. Shuichi is a useless pansexual, and my kink list is here.

Off-Limits: Can't really think of anything? I'm cool with most things and I don't really have any triggers so... :|b

Misc: Since Shuichi is a CRAU, he's already familiar with several cross canon characters who are also in Noctium. Please see the comment below for a list.

Opt Out: Please comment to this post if you would rather opt out of threading with Shuichi, or have specific themes you would prefer to avoid. Comments are screened. ♥
