+1 flamboyant reformed villain
hello, synodiporia! i'm isak (you can also call me zack). you can add me on plurk at ![[plurk.com profile]](https://plurk.com/favicon.ico)
tintamarre!! i love new friends so don't be shy.
i'm bringing you an original character, jay t. zimin.
jay is a man of science, a polymath, a talented if undertrained musician and (dramatic thunder) a necromancer and formerly the ward, lover and accomplice of a notorious occultist and serial killer who tried to incarnate an elder god -- vyd, the god of rot and wrongful death. at the point i'm taking him from, he's about halfway through a redemption arc. he bitterly regrets what he did for his master but being naturally amoral, he hasn't become a hero or anything. he's just trying to recover from the damage his abusive mentor/lover inflicted and move on with his life.
he's also descended from an immortal alien race, the shoggot -- broadly, they're shapeshifters, highly eusocial (their society resembles that of bees, ants and termites very strongly) and very magical. in-universe, they're referred to as "spirits" rather than "aliens", due to the fact their origins are tied to the inherent background magic of outer space.
jay inherited various kinds of magical ability from his great-grandmother, who is a shoggot that came down to the planet of the mortal human-equivalent race and became warped by its magic. in her case, she became a spider-spirit. so jay has six extra eyes in the form of blue eye-spots under his regular eyes. he can also read auras and summon fire using the power of sun (or any other light source).
jay is neurotic, flamboyant, catty, an unrepentant attention-seeker, secretly a huge nerd and a hot mess. he doesn't get along with people easily, though he can be charming and he is an enormous flirt. he's gay, so mostly he flirts with men and i am sorry in advance for how many male travellers he's going to hit on. (uh. if you'd rather he didn't hit on your character, do PM me and tell me! i'll honour all opt-outs and i'll keep 'em private.) he's also a trans man, but that's pretty unlikely to come up except in very specific circumstances.
his app is here, if you wanna know more about him. content warning for suicide, intimate partner abuse and general unpleasantness relating to being gay and transgender.

sadly my hot bi man is gone with the end of the fourth wall and cannot be flirted with but, uh, if he wants a nerdy vampire to hang with or a little girl to parental at or a (headcanoned) bi bruce lee fangirl teen to be a terrible example for, there is that

do you like tea parties, jay?

I really need to throw my teenage pansexual sparklegod at Jay, if he can tolerate that much niceness. Inanna's an utter sweetheart to just about everyone, and flamboyant enough to be Jay's mini-me, probably.
I've also got another Jay running around (though he hasn't used that nickname much here, so no worries) in the form of Jason Todd from DC Comics. Also (headcanoned, with some writer hints) bisexual, and willing to flirt with most people, though probably too young for Jay. This will not stop him from attempted flirting, though.

he can handle niceness, at least from people younger than him. anyone he'd consider a peer being nice to him leads to his brain shortcircuiting.

Armin was a genius child soldier who's physically weak and has low self esteem. Back home they were fighting again giant humanoid monsters who eat humans and have all but driven them to extinction. (He joined at age 12, he's 18 now - he's one of the longest running Travelers, he's been around for 3 years). I am totally up for him being flirted at, though he will be confused by it and mostly unsure how to respond. (He's pan but has a girlfriend.)
Imriel is 10 years old and has been through ridiculous amounts of trauma, with being kidnapped and sold into slavery in a madman's seraglio where cruelty is both a way of life and an act of worship. Feel free to have him get protective of Imriel - though he'll need to get close to him first, and that may take a little doing. Imriel is as yet not comfortable around men.
I look forward to playing with you! I'm dastonyth on plurk, sending you a friend request now.

jay's unlikely to flirt with someone as young as 18 (though i'd love CR with armin anyway 8V), he's got hang-ups about age-gaps, but he'll definitely get really protective of imriel and i'm interested in potentially playing out jay getting close to him and getting imriel to trust him?
i look forward to playing with you, too!

And ah, okay, I didn't know how old he was (still don't, technically), so I don't know how much of an age gap there is.
And getting Imriel to trust him will be a Task, but it's certainly possible, with time.
