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 @ [plurk.com profile] skitties whilst i figure stuff out and get settled and. keep being excitable?

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!

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!
