  • backtagging I'll prioritize more current and/or time sensitive threads, but I'll backtag anything forever if we both want to keep it going! Likewise, if I've dropped something and you want to pick it back up, just let me know!
  • threadjacking I'm cool with it long as we're taking into account context sensitivity. If we're all milling around in a group meeting in the same room or on a network or something, cool; if a thread looks to be closed away in a private location, probably not, you know? If you're unsure, ask!
  • fourthwalling who's even going to fourthwall a canon this old
  • anything else? got a question this doesn't cover? just shoot me a pm!
IC permissions
  • physical contact he'll be willing to accept it from a friend albeit possibly awkwardly, but he'd rather put space between himself and someone he doesn't know.
  • mental contact tentatively open depending on situation. please ask and discuss this with me before your character tries to attempt anything like magical empathy or mindreading or whatever so I can accommodate if possible; you might or might not get a special surprise!
  • fighting/injury feel free to fight the feral cat, sure; anything serious, please discuss first.
  • death let's talk this out, shall we?
  • other got something this doesn't cover? just shoot me a pm!
FIRST IMPRESSIONS
  • visual vayne stands at a whopping (lmao) 5'6'' (or 167cm), and is visibly of very slight build— turns out growing up as a hermit in the woods, raised by a cat, with the diet that would logically follow, has its effects on someone.
  • fashion the images to the left are his fantasy school uniform i don't know what to tell you. outside of his uniform, he's likely to prefer simpler, cozier clothing like turtlenecks and darker colors. stuff he can get lost in like cloaks are also fine.
  • demeanour friendly and amicable enough, though potentially somewhat quiet and shy bordering on timid, especially around unfamiliar people; careful in a subtly wary sort of way. it's the manner of someone who likes people just fine and would like to get along with them, but has been burned by them before and would rather err on the side of caution until otherwise proven trustworthy.
  • sound light, soft, boyish, and extremely akira ishida, baby. he's relatively soft-spoken, though not as much as some others in his canon.
  • scent he doesn't neglect hygiene, but his scent is likely very chemical and or woodsy/outdoorsy in turns. whatever he's been around most recently. he's an alchemist, so he works with a lot of varied materials and reagents, and alchemists in his canon do a lot of hands-on field research to collect their materials. there's probably also some amount of clean cat smell that also clings to him on account of never being far from his emotional support cat friend and guardian sulpher (who is, you may have guessed... a cat).
  • magical information vayne is absolutely not human, but parses entirely as one to anyone with magical/enhanced senses (albeit one as capable of magic/alchemy as any other human in his canon)! his true form involves too many eyes, because something something if everyone wishes for something, then it follows that wishes and desires are key to the heart of who someone is, hm? something something eyes are windows to the soul, that kind of deal ... probably.

    anyway, the short of it is that vayne is an extremely powerful and magical artificial being, but is human passing in every possible way under normal circumstances. let me know if you want to do anything with this, but please note that his not actually being human and how he interacts with this fact is a key plot point of his story in canon, which means i may or may not have to turn down certain kinds of plots if it isn't an appropriate time for it!

a student of a certain academy of alchemy. quiet, more than a bit of a prodigy, and perhaps a bit too kind-hearted, he has a tendency of getting caught up in the problems of others despite his skittishness around them. the mysterious son of an acclaimed man.
🜍    🜔    ☿
deep in a quiet forest stood a house where a boy and a black cat lived.
the boy had no relatives. the cat was his only friend, and the closest thing to family he had.
the two had lived quietly together.
...but their quiet life came to an end with a sudden visit from an outsider.
