NAME: Nichole
CHARACTERS: Altair
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Altair is a quiet, brooding tortured soul. He was the first and last commoner to be chosen as a mage and the consequences of that choice, which was forced onto him has left him scarred and very distrusting of others. Despite the walls he puts up to keep people away, he secretly wants to be accepted and he is fiercely loyal to the friend who stubbornly stick around long enough to see past his walls.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: As usual Altair works at Juno Steel Investigations, even though he's rarely seen at the office, secretly moonlights as an art thief and he now partly owns Loaves of Love with Peace after Annie left. He also has a secret job as the mysterious artist Peregrine who appears on the network every so often. I've neglected Peregrine too much lately but I will put up a new Peregrine post soon. I will be sometime after the 4th since Altair died and this death is going to be harder on him.

First memory loss death! He died from naga venom after killing Joshua out in the wasteland. Normally death doesn't bother Altair very much. He already died way too many times before ryslig for it to affect him much. However Altair had been terrified of inevitably dying too much here that he starts to lose memories and now that has happened. I don't want him to figure out what memory he lost right away. Not knowing is going to drive him crazy and I want to play with that. Ironically this will make Altair friendlier with his close cr since he's scared he lost an important memory with them. If you just want something fun with Altair the earlier part of the month is a good time for that, though something is clearly bothering him. Everything is going to fall apart after Altair figures out what memory he lost. As a shadow mage, he was the sole witness to the memories of the dead, basically their soul. Losing one of the souls he was tasked to protect is going to be devastating for him and it is going to lead to the next plan for the month, Altair's temporary monster change.

Altair is going to be a shade! Shade is the perfect monster for him and it's time for old Altair to get to play. His form is going to be heavily influenced by his true form as a shadow mage, which is a being made of magic that is anchored to an echo of what is left of his human body, something I haven't been able to play with in ryslig since everyone is changed to human at the start. Altair has been kicked down and villainized his whole life and he has struggled with his darker, vengeful nature for years. He is going to be an absolute menace and lash out at even the smallest slight. He already has a lot of the skills he needs to be a formidable shade already from years of being a shadow mage. It's going to be an unwanted trip down memory lane. He hated being a shadow mage and although he will never admit it, he likes how much he has changed in ryslig.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I will start with everything because I love just throwing Altair into things but here are some helpful specifics.

Altair's cr is mostly good influences right now and I would love some more negative and darker cr. Shade month is a good chance for that and I would love to play with Altair trying to deny who he was as a shade later. He has always tried to deny his darker instincts but I want to play with them more.

Peregrine cr! I want to do more with Altair's secret artist personality. Pursuing what he wants to do instead of what the world pushes onto him is a huge step for him and I really like playing with his artistic side. Anything connected to Peregrine is welcome! Customers, fellow artists, people who are curious who he is and want to try to uncover his identity, even if you just want to run into Simon, Altair's disguise as a normal bavan teenager, somehow, that works too.

I'm always on the lookout for more reluctant friends! He may act like he's a loner but my grumpy troll needs all the friends he can get and they are the best way to help him grow.

Shade Altair is going to open up some fun future possibilities for cr, specifically cr with fellow characters who were not human before. Altair was happy to be human again so he never spoke of what it felt like to not be human. Even when his friends talked about missing being human, Altair stayed quiet. But after a month of going back to a less physical form as a shade, he may slowly open up about it more. I want Altair to share more lore.

Juno Steel cr! Altair works as a detective and deliberately chooses to not spend much time at the office so he doesn't get stuck working with others. Please drag my grumpy troll into some shared detective work! I want him to interact with his co workers more and he's surprisingly good at working with others once you get past the initial reluctance.

Other than that there are the usual suspects: rivals (especially rich people he can torment), fellow artists, fellow thieves, victims, or someone trying to catch him as an art thief (this could be a hilarious option if they also work at Juno Steel's investigations with him), negative cr (I love the challenge!), I'm leaning into more of Altair old habits now that he's more comfortable in ryslig so fights! He loves fighting and usually starts them. Please drag him into fun shenanigans! He's used to it and he may even have fun even if he grumbles a lot first. Lastly I want to share more lore with people now that Altair is opening up more. There is a whole other side to him that is tied to him being a mage which he hasn't really touched on at all yet. Shade Altair will be a good opportunity for that. I think that's it. If you come up with anything else feel free to suggest it!

ANYTHING ELSE: I suffer from chronic fatigue so I can be a snail, especially during events, otherwise I try to tag in the afternoon/evenings, Pacific Time.

Here is Altair's opt out. I didn't realize he didn't have a permissions up yet orz. I'll fix that and feel free to pm me at any time if you have any questions or concerns.

lol yes! A baking thread would be fun! Altair has a secret love of baking so it's a great way to get past his walls.
