Amity's posts

I've been meaning to get up at 5 am so I can get on Voltra and work on personal projects before work. So I went to bed early last night, but I woke up at 2:30am instead and couldnt' get back to sleep ;_________________;

At least I'm getting stuff done!

@Edelaen: I'm in the USA, on the west coast actually. I grew up truly in the middle of nowhere, on a mountain that really looks like Swedish country. Because of the isolation and multiple generations living in the area we sort of created this little Swedish enclave. I didn't realize this as a kid and I don't think my dad really realizes (if you asked him we're just weird rednecks), but it's pretty cool.

I don't speak Swedish but have been learning. I really want to visit one day though!

@juliette: oops meant to tag you! Sorry again for the delay!

Name: Vahn Morelock - Ezra Miller faceclaim
Age: Appears to be in his 20s, older as a vampire

Personality: Vahn can be aloof and mischievous, and his apparent disregard for those around him makes him look rather selfish. Around his parents he is more formal and respectful, more out of a sense of duty rather than love towards his family.

Bio: Vahn was born during the vampire/witch war and came to maturity towards the end of it. He wasn't directly involved in the war as his family was well off and more interested in funding the campaign rather than being directly involved in battle. Being a child and rather young and naïve during this conflict could be part of the reason that Vahn doesn't outright agree with the new law of the land, and doesn't necessarily agree that the witches should be enslaved or prosecuted (even if they are lesser beings). He doesn't speak his misgivings out loud or share them with anyone for fear of the consequences that come with treason.

He's somewhat neutral to humans and his kind to his family's human servant because his parents are kind to her. If asked for his opinion, he would have to think about it as he hasn't given her too much notice other than occasionally harassing her during her work while he's bored.

Trivia: The name "Vahn" means "God is good" and is a family name passed down from a time when the family's ancestors were still human. The irony of such a name is not lost on the vampires, and Vahn carries some of this in his personality.

(( Let me know if this works, or if anything needs to be changed for plot/setting! Sorry I didn't see the RP post! ))

@Edelaen: I'm unsure where it's from exactly! My family's Swedish and so I've been getting into the Norse mythology. My family didn't raise me with the gods in mind, but I've been learning that a lot of our "family quirks" are actually just accidental Swedish tradition from my grandma (her father was a Swedish immigrant and raised her Swedish, so she raised my dad Swedish, and he raised us Swedish without really realizing it). We also grew up in the middle of nowhere and were just pagan without realizing it.

My wife is a historian and once I started getting into it she started researching it out of curiosity and she dug up that line about the crows.

Think everything's up to date now! Thanks everyone!!

@Juliette: Hi! I was just wondering where we were on this and was going to get in touch with you. I didn't see that the thread was made; I'll go check it out now!

@Kittyzilla: If you went back your old murder might notice you. I don't know if they'd be able to figure out you moved and come with you though, maybe!


@Totalanimefan: Oh pretty good. The really big one had a whole corn dog in his mouth the other day! Like, there wasn't even a bite taken out of this corn dog.


@Edelaen: Yes, they're so smart! I continue to be impressed by them. I've had an interest in them before I started looking into my family's pagan roots but have more respect for them now as well. I believe there's a quote from Odin saying not to trust the cawing of crows though, haha.
