Galehaut of the Distant Isles

PLAYER

NAME: Lyric
CONTACT: DM
ACTIVE TIMES/PACE: US MST; please forgive me because I am S L O W
BRACKETS/PROSE: Either, but I prefer prose
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: None

IN CHARACTER

PHYSICAL AFFECTION: With some CR, absolutely.
PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: Sure. He's used to harsh treatment. Ask before anything life-threatening and we can hash it out.
RELATIONSHIPS: His very existence in Arthurian legend revolves around his love for Lancelot, so that's always likely to be a kind of emotional background noise. I'm more than willing to play out other relationships, of course! While he's fond of and affectionate toward women, he's only romantically and sexually interested in men.
PSYCHIC & PSIONIC INFORMATION: He has no defenses to telepathy or mind-reading of any sort, so find what you will.
MAGICAL INFORMATION: No particular powers despite his half-giant parentage. He's excellent in battle, both hand-to-hand and on horseback, but none of that skill is magical.
MEDICAL INFORMATION: Let's say that his ancestry gives him a leg up on healing and recovery time, but he's otherwise as susceptible to injury as any mortal man.
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: Historically-accurate violence. He's also in love with a far younger man, but everyone involved is/was of age.

OUT OF CHARACTER

BACKTAGGING: Dear god yes. I can be slow (this is my preemptive apology), but I will keep responding for weeks if you're willing. I like to build up to things--especially romance--and I'm fond of UST, angst and slow burns. ♥
THREADHOPPING: If everyone involved is willing, sure.
FOURTHWALLING: If it's canonical for your character.
NOT INTERESTED IN: Straight-up fighting threads and outright non-con.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS

VISUAL: He is tall, proportionately powerful, and only narrowly misses being "gangly" as a result. Dark hair, gray eyes.
PB: Nicolas Simoe
AURAL: He has a pleasantly deep voice; there's something soothing about it. You would probably listen to him read the telephone directory without complaining too much. If he likes you or you're very lucky, he might sing.
OLFACTORY: Mostly he smells of honest sweat and horse, given how much time he spends on one.
DEMEANOUR: Unexpectedly gentle, despite the intimidating size. He gives the impression of a man who rarely hesitates but still acts with intention. Dwells on things; prone to depression. The sort of man who confides in few and pushes down his emotions until they inevitably overwhelm him.
*Guilty of wavering too long between head and heart, only to finally succumb to his heart in grand and ruinous fashion.
*Tries not to take himself too seriously and often fails.
