⚔︎⚔︎⚔︎ Decree ⚔︎⚔︎⚔︎

paris ■ 26 ■ he/him ■ pst

ㅤ  RULE 001  ㅤ : GENERAL
i do not tolerate bigotry, including but not limited to: racism, zionism, antisemitism, xenophobia, misogyny, homophobia, & transphobia.
i will not write with people who write attack on titan, hetalia, or anything from jk rowling’s writings.
i will not tolerate people who glorify & romanticize rape, pedophilia, incest, and bestiality.
i will not interact with people who interact with these types of people either. this is my blog, and i am allowed to cultivate a comfortable space for myself.
i do not interact with self proclaimed "proshippers" or "antis".
ㅤ  RULE 002  ㅤ : SELECTIVITY
this is a private blog, meaning i am mutuals only.
i don't tend to follow first, which is more reflective of being a little shy than anything else.
i will not follow you if you do not have a rules page, and if you're a singlemuse i won't follow without an about.
i will not rp with minors as this is a 20+ blog, and and while i cannot physically stop you, i don't want minors following me either.
ㅤ  RULE 003  ㅤ : WRITING SPEED & LENGTH
i'm a bit slow, as i only write when it strikes me. replies can take up to several months because of this. i'll try not to take as long but i can't really say for sure how long it might take. please be patient with me.
i tend to write very long replies, especially if Im really into the thread. i won't be limiting myself with this, either. while i don't require matching length, i will drop a thread if i get a 3 sentence reply in response to a long reply.
ㅤ  RULE 004  ㅤ : FORMATTING
i format with small and sometimes colored text, however i will tend to mirror your own formatting as i know visibility and accessibility depends person to person. personally i use colored text sometimes because it makes it easier for me to distinguish dialogue from thought/action with tumblr's formatting. you needn't follow my lead on this though!
ㅤ  RULE 005  ㅤ : NSFW
though i am of age (26), i'm not overly interested in erp for the sake of erp. i'm not adverse to using it as a form of character study, however, and prefer there being somewhat of a plot attached.
both smut and gore will be tagged accordingly.

ㅤ  RULE 006  ㅤ : MAINS & EXCLUSIVITY
i practice mains, meaning that if we’re mains your version will be my go-to. when your muse is discussed in other threads my muse will be talking about your interpretation.
i don't tend to practice canon character exclusivity, though i may be willing to make an exception here or there depending on the circumstances. i love having my options open and seeing what relationships will grow from those options so you won't see me practicing it frequently.
i do, however, practice exclusive shipping.
ㅤ  RULE 007  ㅤ : SHIPPING
i am not here to ship. i am here to explore my muse as himself through character studies and introspection. if shipping adds to this? then i'm game for it.
that said, i am not opposed to building romantic relationships and work based on chemistry.
arvin is a very romantic person, though less in the literal term and more in the poetic way. he is open to casual relationships but as he is in a perpetual state of mourning he will never get over his former relationship with haldrath.
i practice exclusive shipping with canon characters. if we're really vibing i'm totally down to shipping with just your version of the character.
ㅤ  RULE 008  ㅤ : TRIGGERS
i am of the belief that you're responsible for what you interact with and knowing when you need to take a step away from it. that is to say, i will not mark your personal triggers, nor will i request them to be tagged for me. i will, of course, tag common and extreme triggers with a / afterwards (so as not to get caught in real tags)
ㅤ  RULE 009  ㅤ : CREDITS
all art is linked to the original artists and their posts. if there is art unlinked that's because it is either official or my own work.
ㅤ  RULE 010  ㅤ : ABOUT & AI
hey, i'm paris, i'm 26, i'm jewish, and my pronouns are he/him. i work at a museum and am working towards getting a masters in art history.
i believe everyone is capable of art, if you have 20 minutes to write the perfect ai prompt, then you have 20 minutes to write or draw. that is to say i do not condone the use of ai for art. what's the point of roleplaying if you're not even doing it yourself?

Biography

arvin served with honor and diligence the country of ishgard. he was a dragoon, true and kind, and was often seen in battle upon the back of the dravanian, embla, daughter of ratatoskr. they were close allies, and one was hardly seen without the other. having served beneath prince since they were young, arvin was soon raised into the honorable title of first knight of the prince. years later, when haldrath caught wind of his father's plans, rather than dissuade the plans or warn arvin of them, he sent arvin and embla away under the guise of investigating azys lla's ruins. glad to be of service, arvin left unquestioningly, and soon found himself and embla in dire straits to the creatures and experiments there. arvin was severely wounded, embla, panicked, made him ingest her blood before she placed him within an allagan stasis pod where he would soon heal.a thousand years would pass before he would be abruptly roused from his slumber and released from allagan machinery. stumbling about in a haze, he found the world had changed and moved on without him. lacking purpose, he began to travel the lands once he'd finally found himself out of the allagan ruins. displaced in time, and seemingly erased from history, it was all arvin could do to not break and despair. man has split from the dravanians, and he with them.he wouldn't find his purpose again 'til the scions of the seventh dawn bade him welcome. for now, he would keep his past private and observe this new era he's found himself in. wondering why neither embla nor haldrath himself came looking for him, arvin began his travels in an attempt to better understand what happened that fateful day.in truth, and 'tis a truth he shall ne'er come to lay bare, ser arvin had died that day in that terrible pod, and embla bore witness to his passing. the main who carries his appearance and soul both is naught but an allagan clone, created in the modern era and with no directive. and so the question arises: if nothing of the original remains despite taking the same shape, then is this a new person?

⚔︎⚔︎⚔︎ Abilities ⚔︎⚔︎⚔︎

⸺  High Jump


though his style is antiquated, the dragoon jump has nary changed in some thousand years. as such, arvin exhibits the selfsame height modern dragoons are capable of.

⸺  Spear Dive


as with the high jump, so too does the spear dive persist. though his technique greatly varies from modern dragoons, as it was perfected by leaping from dragonback.

⸺  Great Roar


power once freely given from the great wyrm ratatoskr yet lingers in arvin, with a terrible shout heightened by draconic magicks, arvin is able to lower the enemy's magical defenses.

⸺  Star Cross


what later became dragonfire dive of the modern dragoon, arvin had perfected his dravanian blessing into a powerful dive straight down with spear and magic both.

⚔︎⚔︎⚔︎ Verses & Hooks ⚔︎⚔︎⚔︎

verses 
main verseThough he occasionally works with the Scions, Arvin spends much of his time wandering alone, seeking out adventure where he can and relearning the lay of the land.
warrior of lightVerse where Arvin experienced all that the Warrior of Light did.
fantasya general high fantasy setting (can work with faerun settings) in which Arvin fell into a hundred year sleep only to awaken to a world changed. general plotbeats are the same it's just not final fantasy land.
moderni'm not doing this to him that's evil idk (i'll come up with one eventually)
general crossoversas it says on the tin
bonne nuit discord rpwarden: the librarian. | arvin is a warrior of light in this verse.
elysian caim discord rpfollows main verse as an occaisional scion.
hooks 
out of timeArvin's peculiar mode of speech stands out amongst others. As antiquated as his speech is, he seems quite naive to many features of the world that is considered common. Perhaps he needs a helping hand in learning some of these things...
noble heart over bloodSer Arvin's bleeding heart has caught him up in misfortune, his services wrapped up in doing some noble prick's bidding for the time being. He's looking for an out, having found the Ishgard of his memory is not akin to reality.
hunter knightSer Arvin's services are open to those looking for help in hunting down great and terrible beasts. His one stipulation is he is unwilling to kill dragons, even if they are hostile remnants of Nidhogg's horde.
Research NeededNot a well learned individual, Arvin requires the aid of others in such fields. The purpose? He wishes to learn what came of his family in the wake of the Dragonsong War, having seemingly been struck from history.
