Permissions/Opt outs
Apr. 12th, 2024 12:17 amCHARACTER NAME: Jal'Naar | The Dark Urge
CANON POINT: Act 1, right before they cross into the Shadowlands from the Mountain Pass.
GAME CHOICES: AU - write up here!
Backtagging: Yes. I am slow and will backtag forever if you are willing.
Threadhopping: If it's public, yes!
Fourthwalling: Ask first!
Offensive subjects (elaborate): If it bothers me, I will let you know. See his Opt-Outs!
Hugging this character: If you are one of the game's companions (or the Butler?), yes. Otherwise, he may react with violence, depending on the situation.
Kissing this character: Lae'Zel, or of the Companions? YES. Otherwise, let him initiate it.
Flirting with this character: Sure! I play him as pansexual, if a bit clueless.
Shipping: Come at me! AU-wise, he slept with Lae'zel and Astarion. He is end-game with Lae'zel and Close Platonic with Astarion (everyone assumes they're a thing b/c they are that comfortable with each other). That said, Jal has two hands and as long as each player is good with it and we have a Group Chat for it, poly is acceptable.
Smut/Sex: I rather Fade-to-Black on this after the foreplay and skip to the cuddles after. Kink List (to come)
Fighting with this character: I'd rather talk this out or touch base if it looks to be headed that way. Jal'Naar is no slouch in fighting and or killing during a fight.
Injuring this character (include limits and severity): I have no issue injuring him, but I'd like to talk it out first!
Killing this character: Talk to me first, please.
Using telepathy/mind-reading abilities on this character: A heads-up is needed as his mind gets dark and murderous. Also, you know, the mind-flayer tadpole.
VISUAL: 7'0 male dragonborn, with mismatched eyes. The left is a normal flame red with slitted pupil. The right eye has black sclera with a dull dark-green iris. Under the right lighting there is a green spark where the pupil should be. It's rather creepy tbh.
FASHION: Typically darker colours. Capes. Or wearing things like this (link to come).
AURAL: Here!. And here is Orin in his voice.
OLFACTORY: He tends to smell like sweat, fabric, metal, and a faint undertone of blood.
Demeanour: One look into his eyes is enough to know Jal has witnessed countless horrors, both in the waking world and in his dreams. Yet there is an easy confidence about him, something that asks one give him the benefit of the doubt even as he unintentionally looms due to his height.
He's forever bothered by what he doesn't remember of his past AND by what he remembers. He knows he was someone truly horrendous; the Urges are enough proof of that. For the eagle eyed, Jal'Naar holds a tension in his jaw, shoulders, hands and tail due to the near constant state of Resist the Urge and the guilt he carries.
Despite his amnesia, he doesn't judge people.
He very much pack-bonded to his party, so hurt them and he will end you in no uncertain terms.
Warnings: Despite his amnesia and general horror/confusion/fear over wtf his life even is anymore, Jal'Naar's background is that of the leader of Bhaal's murder-cult. He was in it for at least 25 years, presumably leading it for most of that time. He's also, according to BG3 Canon, the purest Bhaalspawn, so sometimes his actions/words will reflect that without his meaning to.
OPTING OUT!
I understand if people would like to opt-out, be it partially or all the way.
Jal'Naar is a Bhaalspawn and currently, in no way shape or form free of Bhaal's influence over him. It deeply affects his day-to-day life. Intrusive thoughts are very real, and the Urge can and HAS taken him over completely at least once. I will NEVER hurt or harm your character without your explicit permission. Jal'naar is a 'Resist the Urge' Durge. He'd far sooner hurt himself than harm an innocent.
Trigger Warnings:
Loss of bodily autonomy - (Jal'Naar's; he refers to it as possessing him.)
PAST animal death - (gruesomely. both done in game due to the Urge. He'll remain forever horrified by what he did. (Hard limit for player))
Pre-amnesia child killing - (Implied in game twice. In game he has not killed a child. (Hard limit for player))
Fantasising about (creative) murder - of your character or people in general. May get detailed, so if you want to avoid specific squicks, tell me!
Actual Graphic Murder - of your character or people in general, given permission.
Casual references to violence - He is a D&D adventurer, and that is inherently dangerous.
Self-worth Issues - because he's terrified of himself.
Cannibalism; - d&d dwarf related. Yes, he has eaten it.
Necrophilia - pre-amnesia. These days he's more likely to comment on the fair perfume and stick his hands into a dead body's gut, than he is to fuck it. This will not stop him from pondering about fucking it, though.
Mental health things - Jal's well aware of how messed up he is and is as honest as he can be about it. He's trying to be better and wants to be better.
General violence - and consequences from a life of adventuring.
Also the Mindflayer Tadpole in his head and all that brings!
I am happy to keep these vague or avoid squicks entirely, or simply refer it as 'the red that clouds his mind/vision' and move on. Simply tell me.
Please note that I will reply with my understanding (seeking confirmation/clarification) of what you are requesting in this opt-out post. This to avoid crossed wires!
