Sylpha Seahawk
Fire mage, and personal guard to Crown Prince Aldon Drogr.

Half-elf with a "hair-trigger" temper who is ready to throw down literally all of the time. Usually the only thing holding her back is Aldon. Or her mentor, Koric.

Former pirate who still falls back on her upbringing.

Feral @feralmagpie.bsky.social · 9h

Merla Renwick
Would be another unspecialized mage if she hadn't focused so hard on everything related to textiles.
Often called a "stitch witch"

Very bubbly and quite popular among her peers. She seeds the ideas of helping the "lower classes" to other members of the nobility.

Feral @feralmagpie.bsky.social · 9h

Valda
Shadow mage and leads a gang of thieves.
Has an extensive network that allows him to stay on top of everything and to be one of the most wanted thieves in Alcadia.
Best friends with Sylpha.
Devotee to the goddess of shadows, Thissa

Feral @feralmagpie.bsky.social · 9h

Niocalmodius Parithan
Would prefer if most people called him Cal
Great Mage, no specialties. He's proficient in every "branch" of magic.
Nonbinary, which puts him as a spiritual leader in his culture.
Teachs at the Mages College, a class he calls Theoretical Magic.
Known for experimentation

Feral @feralmagpie.bsky.social · 9h

Alim Qadir
"Witch King of Yorica"
Will pitch a fit if you call him that. He's a warlock, thank you very much.
Emir of Yorica, and devotee of the god Baz, who he derives his magic from....and his increasing knowledge of the Elder Speech.
He's so tired. Just let him rest and tend to his birds.

Fay "Wildenrose"
Former member of the Protectorate, now a "sparkling" Brand new to the magic thing, and she hates herself, magic, and Alaric about it.

Unsure of everything now, as training to take down magic users was her whole life, and now its upended and everything is different.

Feral @feralmagpie.bsky.social · 9h

Alaric Wildenrose
"Mysterious" wizard who's been travelling around for a long time now. He's in hiding, more or less, and usually lives quiet life. Right up until his recently acquired apprentice who hates him so much.

Feral @feralmagpie.bsky.social · 9h

Ves Seratova
Actually a shamist from Eirgolia.
Uses her extensive knowledge of herbs to weave magic into her embroidery, make helping tea mixtures and potions, and other "folksy" things
Her magic is from tapping into the world around her.
Her staff is a walking aide and culturally important.

if you're going to a protest today I wish you luck. The only specific thing I will beg of you is this: don't use milk to wash out tear gas or mace. if you see a street medic with milk, yell at them until they throw it out. do not continue to spread lies about emergency medicine.

Oh yeah, its the comment someone accused me of having no life or personality

Which is still fascinating to me.

Feral @feralmagpie.bsky.social · 2d

Someone replied to a youtube comment that I made months ago that I ended with "Everything is political"

I understand their sentiment
but class struggle is still politics even if they didn't realise the class struggle inherent in the things they listed as "not political"

Had to break that news

He loves horses so much

Feral @feralmagpie.bsky.social · 3d

Canonically he breeds, raises, and trains them. They're battlehorses, but he treats them like pets often.

He's also doing different lines, including hunters and racers.
And then using the faster, nimble breeds to improve his battlehorse lines

He's working with elvish horses too.

So....all of it.

Feral @feralmagpie.bsky.social · 4d

Aldon had two social media. One was run by someone else though, in the way of business accounts but he deleted that one.

He has one now and its pictures of his art, his friends, his horses. Videos of Sylpha singing.

He's definitely got a tiktok variant account for his horses. Its all horse stuff

Feral @feralmagpie.bsky.social · 4d

She also has a personal one that the public can see. Photos of her friends, of the food she eats, videos of her runs, more than one video of her sitting on Aldons back as he does push ups, of her ship as well as videos from on board her ship.

Girl is out there documenting everything

#AwesomeCharacters

Sylpha runs 3 different profiles.

One profile thats locked to her friends only.
She posts the most unattractive photos of the elf monarchs during meetings. And selfies of herself being bored.

Her profile pic is her giving the middle finger to the gazebo the meetings are held.

Charlie Delta (has been a ghost this whole time! 👻) @charliedeltawrites.bsky.social · 5d

Tell me more about your #AwesomeCharacters

For the sake of this hypothetical, your characters have social media in their world.

Do they use it? What kind of things are they posting about? Pictures, video, or text? What do they have as a profile pic?

Sirens are more often to be Wanderers when it comes to the sea. Their songs are necessary in calming an angry sea serpent, among other things.

The Order protects all waterfolk from the Emperor of Praika so they can't be recruited to fuck with the Thiran army or any other "threat"

Feral @feralmagpie.bsky.social · 4d

In my one wip about the Wandering Order, they definitely exist and make up a important part of the Order. The merfolk especially support the Order in that they collect the seasilk needed for the cloaks the land based Wanderers wear.
They've formed a sort of guild with dryads when it comes to that.

Hey kids, make sure to double check that you're correct when you say Europe doesn't fluoridate their water.
Not only is Europe a collection of countries, but also you'd be wrong.

Actually just double check that what you're saying is correct and that you aren't talking out of your ass.

Feral @feralmagpie.bsky.social · 9d

I love youtube comment sections.
Told someone that fluoride is good actually and now the weirdos are mad and I keep asking them for a source for their claims that they make at me.
Someone asked if I was a bot.
No one has given me sources for their claims.
