hi guys! i'm kerry and thanks to sam i come bearing the most ridiculous impulse app to impulse app, moiraine damodred from the tv adaptation of the wheel of time.

moiraine likes to hide behind many masks and uses stories and a lack of knowledge to hide everything that she is because she isn't mysterious enough as it is and she just has to be extra dramatic to boot. really, dramatic and impulsive decisions are her middle names. the truth to her: she's just trying to do a good thing. and is very exhausted.

dumb jokes aside, moiraine is everything that she both says she is and is not. she's a pretty competent channeler (magic user) who's been on a secret world-saving quest for the past twenty years and just when it seemed she was maybe making some progress: here she pops. it means moiraine will very much not want to get involved with anything here but at the same time just won't be able to help herself from getting involved if she hears something or someone's in trouble. mystery aside, she has a good heart, though can be a bit of a brat and is very demanding. she is also incapable of lying. so watch her words!

i could tl;dr for too long. moiraine's going to be arriving during the malfunctioning beacon time and i apologise if she's not the friendliest to begin with! it's been a time for her. i'm over on plurk @ skitties whilst i figure stuff out and get settled and. keep being excitable?

hello hello, aes sedai mommy. i'm jesse and i play sansa from a song of ice and fire, currently from a canon point where she goes by alayne stone and has been dying her hair brown so that's a whole thing. alayne here is at least incredibly used to 'double speak', so she always pays attention. WELCOME TO OUR FUN ZONE.

[cairhien]

moiraine clearly needs to replenish her supply of lost youths so hello alayne!!! come play daes dae'mar with her c:

[notsansa]

She will, she will. Different world. Same game. Help guide her, magic mom!

[cairhien]

magic mom is here to guide!! and other incredible things
no naps for moiraine, too much to do

[in_theworks]

Y HALO THAR!

(And since I realize now I never told you who I play, it's knightinqs! /wave! )

[cairhien]

HELLO!!!!

[in_theworks]

I would like to apologize in advance, because my boy here? Kind of a Chaos Gremlin.

[cairhien]

honestly, sounds like it'll work with moiraine well!!! she's a brat and very chaotic c:

Hello, welcome! I'm so excited to have you here, I literally just started watching this show and Moiraine is awesome. (Generally I love anything Rosamund Pike touches, so it's an easy sell.)

I'm Sheep. I play Five (tua) and Marcos (the gifted) here, they are fun opposites so there are all the options for CR. I'll be looking for things to throw at her, I can't wait to see what she gets into!

[cairhien]

rosamund pike is a queen and honestly i am hecking glad she is in this!!!! (also if you want some hilarity she is doing the audio book for the first novel. which is both a mix of her wonderful narration and epic hilarity when she voices everyone)

i love both of your characters and declare a need for cr with them both!!!!!

[somebadnews]

100% yes! Also I'm adding you on plurk.

Hi, welcome! Wheel of Time has been one of those iconic canons I kept meaning to read, before getting slightly intimidated by its sheer vastness — I won't lie, the Amazon series is a boon to get my toes wet, once I get into it. It's great to have Moiraine as an ambassador for the series!

All I've got is one [1] morally upright, aloof and gravely stubborn monastic old timer who is also bound not to lie by his sect precepts — they seem quiiiiite alike.

[cairhien]

hello!!! i'll admit i don't even know if i heard about the book series while i was growing up but with how i've enjoyed the show it's made me dip my toes into reading it now (yikes!)

i know vague things about your canon but it honestly does sound like canons that'd mesh quite well!! so i look forward to cr c:

[downswing]

Listen, Moiraine wears all-blue, Wangji goes all-white, they've got the same relationship with colours ('don't mess with what works.')

[cairhien]

she remembers those all-white days. maybe she will mess with it (she's a brat!!!!), want some blue? some green?

[downswing]

No tx, got a gothic widower vibe to maintain here. Don't sell out the monochromatic train, Moiraine.

[cairhien]

she sold out sorry not sorry

[downswing]

You broke ur vow

[cairhien]

its not even just another colour it's red!

[downswing]

ur not getting married ffs

Hi, welcome! I haven't seen the series but I read the first (? probably?) book forever ago and I barely remember it so that semi counts right? I'll get to the amazon series eventually I am sure! I remember they called people The Dragon but there wasn't an actual dragon, which is always a huge let down because I am a fan of dragons.

SPEAKING OF:

I play a dragon who only like, 1 person knows is actually a dragon. He's many of the things you'd expect from a dragon: charismatic, frustrating, patronising on occasion, bristly when challenged and a highly skilled magic user! On the bright side, she can be as unfriendly as she likes and he'll forget about it in five minutes because his canon is full of negative bias towards black dragons so his life has just been like that. He won't take it personally! He's also very attuned to doublespeak and careful wording because it used to be something he did so often, and it's something he still does a lot, so that might be fun!

Hope you have a great time!

[cairhien]

hi there! i don't know how moiraine would react to an actual dragon (if she found it out) but she's at least not that kind of rude in general.

[blackscales]

I expect it to be a big surprise for a lot of people TBH, which is why I am holding onto it as long as I can. Nothing like sudden dragon transformation to start a little drama!
