Tales of sea maidens fair and fatal spread from mouth the ear among those who sail the open seas. Navymen and pirates alike feel dread and excitement simultaneously at the prospect of meeting a mythical beauty, with a voice like music and the looks of an angel.

Such tales were familiar even to Mereoleona Vermillion, a former Clover royal who had ditched her responsibilities and expectations in exchange for freedom and adventure on the high seas. Now the leader of one of the most feared pirate crews in the Carte seas, she has fought many a sea beast thought to be naught but children's tales and found many a treasure, but there is one ocean treasure that keeps evading her: the mysterious mermaid.

Then, on a near-fatal day when crossing the navy, she finds herself knocked out and pushed overboard unexpectedly while protecting her ship. The seas are stormy, and the water is cold and deep, so far from the warm currents of Raquey and much, much closer to the frozen cliffs of Spade kingdom. Injured, disoriented, and weak, she swims on, intending to die as a warrior, not as just another drowned person, but finds herself losing consciousness. As she slips out of the waking world, nearly falling into the realm of the afterlife, she hears a melodic sound, soft and warm, the sound that has evaded her for so long: that of a mermaid.

Or, at least, her confused and weary mind thinks it's a mermaid.​

She regains consciousness to find herself ashore, on much warmer lands, with pale golden sand, seashells, and sea glass strewn across the beaches. The forests of Heart and - perhaps further inland - Elysia greet her, and she finds herself curious and frustrated as to how this can be. And how is she supposed to get to her crew? Who has saved her? Had they even saved her? Or are they playing games?

Meanwhile, a few meters away from her, a half-merman holds his breath, hidden behind a rocky structure both in awe of the woman he'd just come across, and fearing being found out by her, a human, and a sworn enemy of his underwater-dwelling race.

I am specifically requesting this on a separate thread as when it comes to new roleplays, I'm only interested in Mereoleona x William. However, if you are willing to do this request of mine, I might be able to potentially play out a pairing for you in turn - M x F, F x F, M x M, NB x Any - depending on the individual pairing. Also, depending on the fandom, I might be accepting ships from other fandoms too for your side of things. I will not do your ship only.


Terms & Conditions:
No one-liners.
Please avoid using all lower-case or all upper-case aesthetics in your responses. OOC is fine.
Third-person roleplaying only. I am not comfortable with first-person POV in roleplay.
No text talk in the actual roleplay.
No god-modding and no Mary Sues/Gary Stus.
Mature stuff - including both gore and romance - gets brushed over and faded out.
Cussing is allowed.
Side characters are allowed and encouraged, including original characters! I would rather we split them up ahead of the roleplay with each of us playing certain characters though -- it's less confusing that way.
Adult/18+ roleplayers only, please, for my peace of mind. All characters in the roleplay will also be adults.
I don't mind whether I play Mereoleona or William.
If we double, I also won't mind playing any gender or sexuality for your pairing.

I should probably mention that even though mature stuff and gore will be faded out, dark or serious topics might get mentioned, which should be treated seriously and not as an aesthetic. However, this can be avoided, if you would prefer, if you mention it in the PM.

I'd rather that whoever is interested tells me in their very first pm to me why they PM'd me, what they are interested in, what they're willing to play out for me, what they're preferences and limits are, and whatever other information might be relevant.

I believe that would really speed up the process.
 
Optional Set Up Of the World
Feel free to tell me if you rather things were set up differently, though.

Geography
Continent - Carte Continent (surrounded by the Carte seas)
3b60e-16753768203450-1920.jpg


Countries/Kingdoms:
Clover
- A mostly stable nation, but one with a lot of discrimination and beef with countries like Spade and Diamond. Very stable, mild climates, thanks to warm water currents flowing around its coasts, particularly around Raquey - a popular holiday retreat in the colder months. Has a strong naval force.
Heart - Neutral nation, comparatively accepting and open-minded but with a weak military/navy presence as compared to the other countries. A mixture of subtropical and temperate climates, diverse forests, and freshwater ecosystems. Popular with tourists.
Diamond - Set on nutrient-poor land, a very rocky area, with lots of minerals, yet it's hard to grow things on or to fish in. Tends to invade other countries for resources.
Spade - Growing threat, looming political and civil instability, as different families fight for the throne and drag regular folk into the issues with them. Said to dabble in deals with devils, but no proof has been acquired of this. Has a strong and numerous land-based military force.

Other Regions:
Witches' Forest | "Everfree"
- An independent forested region situation on the borders between countries, and led by the "Witch Queen". A sanctuary for hundreds of accused women from neighbouring kingdoms threatened with execution upon being found to dabble in "witchcraft". The majority aren't actual witches though, and mostly know herbal remedies passed down from mother to daughter. People here tend to live in treehouses.
Underwater City | "Atlantis" - One of the various merfolk sanctuaries. Located off the coast of Raquey, under the sea, surrounded by strong currents that help protect it from intruders. Not every merperson resides here, but quite a few do. They don't really have a leader as such, but they pray to an Ocean Goddess to which they build makeshift underwater temples, safeguarded by the priests. For centuries, the merfolk have avoided and abhorred the human race for past conflicts and accusations of them being murderers - who drag sailors to their watery doom - so they are reluctant to bump into humans.
Forest of Elfae | "Elysia" - Said to be the home of the fae and the elves, of nymphs and other such races, it is hidden in dense woodland, somewhere near Heart Kingdom. No one has been able to find or map it - at least, not while also making it out of there -, and so it remains a mystery. It is said the pretty elves, nymphs, and fae here will lure you in with their beauty to meet a premature death among the trees.

We'll be leaving overseas region - such as Yami's homeland -, out of this. That's not to say characters can't be from there, but it won't be included to any great extent.

Character Roles:

Clover Navy:
This group will be separated into crews, depending on which operates on which ship, usually. Naval military also works in-land in Clover, rotationally. They'll spend some time at sea, then switch out and serve some time on land, closer to families and whatnot. It is made up solely of men, as in this AU, women can't participate in military affairs, including naval ones.
There are four main crews:

Silver Eagle - One of the two first naval crews, historically led by members of the extended royal family members. Specifically by the house of Silva. Currently, lead by Nozel Silva. It's a pretty elitist group of people - you tend to join based on connections and get looked down upon if you are poor or a foreigner.
Crew Members - Nozel, Solid, Rob Vitesse, Nils Ragus, Original Characters
Crimson Lion - A more open-minded group, but still generally led by higher class people - specifically the house of Vermillion. Currently under the guidance of Fuegoleon Vermillion.
Crew Members - Fuegoleon, Randall Luftar, Leopold, Kirsch, Original Characters
Azure Deer - Currently led by Rill Boismortier, this crew is a mixture of different classes. It is generally the most welcoming one, but it is also often made up of boisterous sailors and sometimes stirs up trouble. For the most part though, they're fairly reliable and uncorrupt, and it's where most lower-class folk hope to go, as the head of the Navy - Julius Novachrono, formerly was part of the crew when it went by "Grey Deer" instead.
Crew Members - Rill Boismortier, Cob, Marx, Walter, Francis, Original Characters
Purple Orca - Though a skilled crew in their own right and made up of a mixture of classes, rumors speculate that this crew isn't very trustworthy, and is corrupt, willing to do anything to line their pockets, and still looking down upon outsiders, even when they have outsiders among their own. It is said they're not above getting rid of their own.
Members - Kaiser, Xerx Lugner, Digit, Gaston, Winston, Original Characters
Pirate Crews:
Vermillion Valkyries - Made up of women who seek freedom from the patriarchy, from responsibilities flung upon them without their consent or choice. They've come to form their own crew under Mereoleona's lead, having found no better treatment among the other male-dominated pirate crews than they did among civilians and the navy. This includes women of all nationalities, classes, and ethnicities, but they are all ultimately human, even though some may be accused of "witchcraft".
Crew Members - Mereoleona (Captain), Dorothy (Vice-Captain), Grey, Fragil, Vanessa, Letoile, Mimosa, Noelle, Secre, Sally
Black Bulls - Rival pirate crew of the Emerald Mantis, a chaotic group of outcasts, who might have longed to be a part of society, but couldn't be. Commonly packed with foreigners, commoners, disgraced nobility, and criminals.
Crew Members - Yami (Captain), Nacht (Captain), Finral, Gauche, Zora, Magna, Luck, Gordon, Asta
Emerald Mantis - Rival pirate crew of the Black Bulls, and a certified, destructive menace. Primarily made up of folk who simply put didn't really want to be a part of society in the first place, which is a little different from the reasoning of the Black Bulls.
Crew Members - Jack (Captain), En (Vice-Captain), Sekke Bronzazza, Revchi, Rades, Valtos, Original Characters...
Merfolk:
Certifiable water-dwelling subspecies of humans that had diverged from humans quite some time ago but can still produce viable offspring when mixing with humans. They are known to have a mixture of fish and human features, though their combination of such features varies between individuals. Merfolk society tends to be somewhat female-dominated and worships the Ocean Goddess Marina. Though there are more female than male mermaids, there are still some male mermaids -- sufficient numbers to keep the race going, but the differences are quite vast, with only 1 in 10 merfolk being mermen. They have both lungs and gills and because they don't tend to have the blubber reserves of arctic and antarctic seals, they prefer dwelling in warmer waters. They can live in salt and freshwater, in deep or shallow waters, as they possess a certain amount of "magic" which allows them to adapt faster/more easily than most creatures would. They can also talk, and sing - but whether they sing well depends on the individual merperson. They tend not to look too kindly upon human-merperson hybrids.
Merpeople - Kahono, Kiato, the other members of the Underwater Temple, William
Elves:
Live in Elysia, predominantly, having been chased away there by humans who have wiped many of them up in massacres where they took the elves out by surprise -- otherwise the Elves would've probably been able to take them on easily for the most part. Hold a grudge against the human race. Live in tribes, with the biggest being currently led by Patri. Tend to live a humble and sustainable existence in general.
Elf People - Patri, Vetto, Rhya, and the elf counterparts of the humans possessed in the reincarnation arc of Black Clover. Think Lufulu, Kiven, Elf!Fana, etc.
 
P.S. -
I should mention for the above post ... "original characters" can be replaced with characters from other verses - with sufficient alterations to fit into that world -, provided they are from verses that I know. It's certainly one way to indulge in pairings from different fandoms within the same universe for the sake of my roleplay partner. (Only if they wish for such a thing and it is feasible/comfortable for us both, of course.) Of course, it isn't the only way -- feel free to suggest other things, including simply playing them out separately yet simultaneously.
 
Example Responses:
So that you may get an idea of what to expect in terms of roleplay responses from me.

Emory was freaking out.

Last thing she could recall was walking to the pub she was supposed to be playing at. Then the roar of a car engine. A crash. A loss of consciousness and overwhelming pain. Then numbness. Darkness. Nothing. Whiteness. Even when she blinked several times, all she could see for what seemed like miles was a sea of white.

'Wha-??? Am I dead?!' An internal panic gripped her. She had family! She had friends! A whole life ahead of her -- it wasn't supposed to end this way! Besides, she'd looked both ways just as she had been taught well back when she was a toddler before crossing that road.

It didn't -- none of this made sense.

It almost felt like she was walking on nothingness, wandering around, searching for anything vaguely resembling and exit. It was after moments that she thought to pinch her arm... but nothing.

The whiteness didn't leave.

She was truly awake in this place; whatever it was.

"Hello?" she called out to whomever might have been listening. "Is anyone there?" Her voice was drawn out and loud, but no responses came out. Even her voice didn't really seem to echo.

She reached out for her pocket, wondering if maybe calling someone would do anything -- if she could get any signal that was, and if her phone wasn't dead or out of credit. Yet, pulling out her form, she came to the unfortunate conclusion that here phone... was in fact dead as a doornail. Zero Battery. She groaned inwardly in frustration and anxiety, but, she reminded herself, she needed to be a trooper.

With the next few steps, it was like the whiteness was starting to fade into greenery. Slowly but steadily her feet found a carpet of lush greenery, and later still, rocks and shrubbery seemed to make an appearance.

She could have sworn she'd even heard bird song, but there appeared to be no source for it. Nowhere she looked were there birds.

And then she came up to a wall of greenery, standing tall and broad, with her unable to see through it or over it. Granted, that could've been down to her somewhat lacking height, but even so. Her eyes narrowed in focus and confusion, searching for answers.

'What the heck even is this???'

There seemed to be an entrance, a gap between the bushy walls. An entrance she found herself pulled to, something telling her that answers nearby.

Looking to one of the walls, she noticed a stone plaque trapped among the branches. There, engraved stood the words "Cupid's Labyrinth", leaving her with more questions than answers. Of course, she found the name vaguely familiar. It was something she'd read somewhere, or at least heard of... but she hesitated, uncertain. Looking to the entrance, she took a nervous step back at first.

Who knew what was ahead?

But that wall, it stretched as far across as she could see, and there seemed to be more life within there - she could hear it. There could be a way out through there.

... although...

There was something about Labyrinths she'd also read. They were not quite like mazes. She worried it might be cause for concern, but at the same time...

She wanted to get back to where she had been before waking up here. Wanted to go to work, or better yet go home.

Inhaling slowly, and then sharply exhaling, she finally entered the labyrinth.
Honestly, couldn’t a man even take a shit in peace these days?

Leaving the lavatory, the captain of the Black Bulls headed off to find Wheels- er, Finral. Just moments ago, he’d received a short and impatient message from Mushroom Head, that left little to no space for argument.

Apparently, it seemed the underworld had crept into the overworld, and now people were starting to act strange and morph into devil-like beings. As if they hadn’t enough experience with devils to last them a lifetime but, hey. If that was the case, he supposed he could surpass his limits and knock every last devil-turned-bastard out cold -

And that was when he’d heard a crash coming from within his base.

‘Which of my fucking dumbasses broke something this time?!’ on top of his interrupted bathroom time, he was still nursing a hangover from the night before - having insisted on drinking Jack under the table (he’d intended to get Vangeance drunk for the lols too, but Mr Goldie Guts wouldn’t loosen up) - with which came a sizeable headache.

“Alright, whoever did that -” he said, seeing a half-destroyed wall, expecting Luck or Magna to be standing behind it.

Only, the person behind it was Grey. Who was currently shaken up.

“Fuck’s sake…” he muttered under his breath, not even sure he wanted to know the what’s, why’s and how’s of this situation…

And then he noticed she was looking up. Tilting his head up, he saw something - or rather, a familiar someone - flapping about in the air. Wasn’t Bird Mascot or Devil Boy either. “The actual hell…?”

Instead, he could make out Gauche’s hairstyle - and even if he couldn’t, the picture of Marie in his hands gave him away -, but warped, enveloped in dark tendrils, and held in the air by a pair of almost bat-like, black wings, a pair of slightly curved back horns sticking out of his head. Extending from the back was a tail ending with what almost looked like a crab claw. “Got any idea how the hell Sister Complex ended up looking like Devil Boy’s long-lost half-brother?” He turned to Grey, who shook her head, looking a mixture of frightened and concerned.
The sheer amount of people gathering made the young man steadily more nervous and the nausea was not helped by the sea air. It was all rather distracting and not in any good way. Instead the sounds, smells and sights disoriented him, leaving him feeling lost.

As a cheen ran past him, clearly chasing after something, he narrowly managed to dodge the canine. In doing so, he naturally proceeded to crash into another passerby who hadn't seen him. Aghast at his own carelessness, he turned around, panicking and apologising meekly, doing so more than once. That had been such an embarrassing mistake to make! What if the woman he had crashed into - a short-ish redhead with freckles - had lost her balance, or perhaps he'd injured her in some way? Or what if she was someone important - he wasn't sure how to differentiate between people of noble and common birth in other countries and didn't want to assume? That would result in him potentially being in very big trouble.

"My apologies!" He dipped his head several times in shame and remorse, hoping that she would forgive his careless blunder.

It was times like these when he'd wished he could have been born a turtle instead. Then he could his his face in his shell whenever he felt like not facing reality. And right now, he didn't really want to face the woman's reaction once she'd realised that some careless, clumsy nobody crashed into her.
"How... exotic," the eldest Corrotti now looked down at the woman as though she were a monkey at a zoo, with very subtle disdain in her voice.

"My name is-"

She was cut off by a very enthusiastic and cheerful "ah there you are, Seraphina, my love." The youngest Corrotti would have guessed she was suppressing the urge to groan at her little game being disrupted, even if it was by her largely oblivious husband. "And you seem to have made new friends!"

Now even Eliza felt the urge to facepalm.

"How fabulous! Would you care to introduce her to me?" The man, dressed in a navy blue suit, with a frilly collared shirt, and with bronze hair and hazel eyes, wrapped his arm around his wife.

Whether or not this pissed her off though, the woman turned around to smile sweetly at her husband, and pat his cheek. "Why, yes, of course, dear." She then gestured over to the "foreign" girl.

"My newest friend over here goes by the name of Emica... lovely name, no?" Really, she probably though it pathetic and saw her as little more than a toy, but try saying that to her husband, who was also mostly just her puppet.

From where she stood, Eliza mouthed a "sorry" at the woman currently surrounded by her relatives. They had a habit of flocking around their victims like a murder of crows.
The woman at his side shook her head and sighed.

Footsteps could be heard from around them. The doors to the castle were being opened, and the other races could be seen entering the castle. He could recognize most of them - though he intended to ignore them. Neither the Sultana of the Demimorph kingdom, nor the leader of the werewolves, nor the king of Atlantis... nor most of those people were interesting enough to hold his attention for more than a few seconds. He'd seen them before, he knew them well, and frankly... they were about as interesting as flies.

'They have their uses, but ultimately, their intrigue is short-lived,' he'd figured a long time ago.

Nevertheless, he followed, as usual, and, as usual, he stood - refusing to take a seat, simply because he did not think himself level with the other leaders - opposite where the leader of Arandelle would be sat, very much wanting to see the frustration or the fear in their face, as they noted his presence. Except, as he looked ahead at where Agnarr (was it?) was meant to be sat...

There sat an unfamiliar young woman with hair like white gold or platinum, and ice-blue eyes. This clearly wasn't Iduna either. He looked towards his assistant, who helpfully leaned into whisper in his ear:

"That is Queen Elsa - she had recently taken over the leadership role upon the passing of the King and Queen during a shipwreck."

Ah...

Well, that would explain why some of her features still felt vaguely familiar. She certainly seemed young too. It didn't surprise him that fear was flowing from her, her nerves very apparent, as much as she had clearly tried to keep her expression friendly and confident looking.

Unable to help it, the shadows around him shifted a little, as he found himself observing her for her reaction, waiting and wondering if she took more after Iduna or Agnar in terms of her character.

Certainly, her presence broke the monotony of the event simply by virtue of the replacement of her father by her.

As the new queen cleared her throat, Pitch averted his gaze, looking towards the piece of paper that was being passed around, reminded of the dull reality of what this event was about. He briefly looked back to Elsa. Did she really assume it would be that easy to persuade him to play by the rules set out by her ancestors? Gaze descending to the table once more, as the paper slid towards the end over which he towered uncooperatively, he kept his hands behind his back, giving no indication that he would sign.

"I do wonder..." he drawled out, thinking aloud, "is there any particular point to all of this? I think we all know by now that none of these people sitting at this table have any intention nor ability to attack each other without serious repercussions for their own lands..." A cold smile tugged at his lips. "... And, as for my part, I see no way in which I'd benefit from this treaty, your highness," he added

Some more example responses - for a bit of variety:
Jack couldn't quite keep the grin off his face as he continued to take in this curious little collection of people. The fact the human kangaroo didn't think his attempts entertaining made it all the more tempting to mess with him - 'note to self: prank the furry first' - and he couldn't wait to know what kind of reactions he could get out of the others.

He'd practically skipped along after their leader, nowhere near as concerned as the others were -- honestly, he was going to just go with the flow and hope he'd make a bit of money along the way to support his family.

The young man stifled a snicker at the older man's talk of murder. "No chance we'll get to bet on who survives, chief?" he couldn't help but comment, eyes shining. Oh, that was a terrible idea. He didn't even need to turn around to know that his younger sister was probably looking at him with disapproval right now. The last thing this man needed was to develop some riske gambling addiction or start betting on lives, but then... Jack had never claimed to be a reasonable dude. His younger sister only expected it of him because... well, to be fair, that was technically his fault.

"From now on, I'll be way more careful. I'll protect you like the big brother I ought to have been in the first place.' Well, it's been years since then and he clearly hasn't matured any. Sorry, Jill.

"Basically what the pretty crystal robot lady said," he affirmed the other alien woman's words after she beat him to answering purple alien's question. He knew that aliens might not get his phrases, but he didn't know that they could actually be this oblivious to human things. It was a hella fun realisation, honestly. "So, where do the two of you come from?" he asked, as he decided to take to walking alongside them, figuring he'd give the giant rabbit eared fella a bit of a reprieve before he'd start going all "Dennis the Menace" on the guy.

Besides, he hadn't seen much of the other worlds - or their people - and was pretty curious. They definitely weren't local - otherwise they surely would've picked up on the phrases by now -, which made them an interesting mystery to unwrap.
"Not the Milkyway, I'm guessing?"
Shadow walked on, searching for the source of that strange force, the odd pull of emotion that wasn't quite his, and the energy, the power that seemed to practically sing to him. Only, it didn't literally sing to him - which was a bloody relief, too, because he would have likely been the only one hearing that song, just to end up looking like a right hatter. That is to say, completely off his rocker and totally bonkers. His body followed as if on autopilot, the mind no longer its master. At least, temporarily it was not. Not for as long as there seemed to be a clear way to the source of this strange energy. Subconsciously, the mark until his clothes faintly glowed, not obviously, but even so. It was a sure sign that he was getting closer, and in that madness of attempting to find the reason for all of this, he had completely lost his observation skills, almost tripping up several times. He huffed silently when he'd almost stumbled down the stairs, catching himself just before he completely lost balance and managing to just pass it off as elegance. Good, for his pride couldn't take even this little bit of humility... not yet, anyway.

He shook his head, forcing himself to focus, before he realised where he was. Outside? Surely not. Glancing around, it was confirmed that he was indeed outside the manor. Just how had that happened...? Perhaps he would have blamed it on the drinks, had it not been for the fact that he'd drank nothing since getting here. Maybe it was dehydration, actually. As unlikely as it was, perhaps he needed more water. Yes, then he'd be sane. His eyes settled on a particularly peculiar tree, and then the person which stood beside it. Not that she looked all that peculiar - he knew a witch when he saw one, just like he could recognise a vampire, a werewolf, a fellow spirit, or a demon if he'd saw one of those. Living long certainly had its perks, if you could call it that. It was just that there was something...

No, it couldn't be. Grey hair, pinkish-red at the tips, and a fairly uninspiring dress to go with it. There was nothing vaguely interesting about her. Except maybe her paranoia.
 
Not sure if I mentioned it, but:
- I would prefer if, should we both play side characters, let's please settle on which ones we do prior to the roleplay.
- If we're adding original characters, I'll be needing their profiles. Here's the sort of information I'm looking for with them:
Goes by:
Name, alias, or even just some number assigned to them. Just something to refer to them by.
Gender | Sex:
(pronouns can be included too)
Apparent Age | Actual Age:
(Even just one of these will do they, they must be 18+)
Status:
Royal, Noble, Commoner?
Occupation:
Pirates, Navy, some sort of civilian occupation
Appearance:
Height, build, eyes, skin, hair, attire and accessories.
(A picture is accepted - photo, realistic, anime, cartoon, and as long as I can make out what's on the image, and the character can't be in underwear or in a bikini, nor shirtless -, but the height must be included, as well as anything not shown.)
Personality:
Please add in both the positive and the negative personality traits. While symptoms of disorders/illnesses can be stated here, they cannot be the only things to the character. Don't include physical flaws or weaknesses - those go in a separate section. So, things like brashness, recklessness, stubbornness, and naivete are personality flaws. Clumsiness is not. Being "too kind" is also not. There must be at least three negative traits. Do not write this section like a shopping list and do not just provide me with an MBTI personality type. It will not be accepted. You can use it as inspiration, but not as the whole thing. People are more than the categories we shove them in. Positive traits are definitely allowed, we want to balance things out. Introversion and extraversion are neither positive nor negative traits, but neutral traits are also accepted. Just don't use introversion as a negative trait -- as an introvert, I find that incredibly rude. Views and attitudes also belong here. Goals can as well if you don't wish to put them elsewhere.
Likes:
(optional)
Dislikes:
(optional)
Fears:
(At least three)
Strengths | Skills:
Weaknesses:

Limitations, disadvantages, areas in need of improvement, both academic and physical, but also issues with teamwork and communication. If your character has magic, what is it disadvantaged by, and what can it be restricted by, is it already restricted by something, like a magical bind, or is their magical energy finite? Are they poor at combat, or just short or long-ranged? Are they poor at maths, communication, climbing, swimming, etc? They don't even have to stay poor at it, they can improve as long as it takes time/effort/practice.
Biography:
(optional)
Medical:
(Optional. Things that may be included: are allergies, disorders, medical conditions, illnesses, and disabilities. Should you want your character to be neurodivergent, you can either place that info here or in "Other" or "Extra". Please do your research and don't just hand out these things like candies.)
Orientation | Relationship Preferences:
Relationship Status:
Crush | Love Interest:

(optional)
Family:
(optional)
Friends:
(optional)
Non-humanoid Companions:
(like cats and dogs - optional)
