INTRODUCTIONS
You can call me M, and most of the writings here are about one of my LARP characters I've had over the years. (I'll intro them below) There are some things I'm going to have to tweak in a lot of these stories, to separate them slightly from the world they are based in, due to me not owning that world. I'm don't really consider myself much of a fanfic writer, because I don't tend to write stories with non-ocs, and mostly only My OCs and the characters they directly interact with. Hopefully you like what I write, and please feel free to send an ask or leave a comment on anything.
Character Introductions (kinda)
So, now that I’ve posted a bit about each of them, lets give some basic backstory my two main OCs that will be seen in these stories. Both of them were made first as LARP characters, and most/all of the other characters in these stories are either the characters created by my friends for the same LARP, NPCs created by the LARP staff for the story, or background characters I just kinda… made up for narrative convenience.
First we have my miscreant cat, Xane Darastrix. He is a black and silver/grey cat with blue eyes. He loves to dress in bright colors and as little of a shirt as he can get away with. (The cultural group in the LARP that he was from was based on stories and stereotypes about the Romani people, so bright colors, loudly enjoying life, that sort of thing.) (he's actually the picrew that’s the pfp for this blog) Xane himself is an incorrigible flirt, and pretty much omnisexual. With that though, he is surprisingly respectful, doing his best to curb the propositions towards characters that said they weren’t interested nor comfortable with him acting like that. He spent most of his tenure as my main LARP character basically illiterate. He could only read and write about as well as the average 6-7 year old in modern times, and was only really good with making sure anything he had to sign wasn’t getting him scammed. As a fighter, he was a skirmisher, running around the edges of the battlefield with twin daggers and only really putting himself into the middle of things when someone needed help.
The other main character in my stories is Trisara Page, also known as Tris. She is a purple humanoid dragon, with muzzle, wings, tail and all. She was raised in a library, and is (unintentionally) VERY Autistic coded. She is bad with social situations, and she learned much of her etiquette from about 90 year old books designed to teach young ladies how to properly behave. As such, her normal outfit includes a skirt and petticoats, and (given her wings, which are HUGE) since she can’t wear normal shirts, she used aprons that she added fabric to as halter-top style shirts. She is a mage, uses every type of magic available to her, and as a backup carries a massive glaive as a weapon. As she adventured, she ran into a small group of others who kind of… adopted her since she was hopeless out on her own, and almost walked into some very dangerous situations. She ended up dating two of them (who were married to each other as well but yeah SHE didn’t know that for a long ass while) and was very close with the other three. She started out VERY lawful good, which slowly was eroded to neutral/chaotic good behaviors.
I started out both my characters with little to no trauma. The closest thing was Tris never knew her actual parents, just the librarians who adopted her. And Xane was addicted to a drug called kinnip (think catnip, but it relaxed him). So yeah, any trauma that they come out with is from their current story, not backstory.

Guinep Pilsner Time! So excited for this day. I finally get to make a beer with my most favorite fruit from back home in Colombier, SXM. I used to climb Kinnip trees and dream of being free to do whatever my heart desires. I took the tomboy oath in a Chenet tree to never let a boy/man stop me from my goals or tell me I can't do a thing. Putting this pilsner beer out will be the highest expression of goal achievement progress. I'm not done yet but the beer is a sign post that says "your on the right path". ___ #craftbeer #guinep #chenet #kinnip #quenepa #spanishlime #melicoccusbijugatus #Caribbeanbrewery #caribbean #Caribbeanlife #iamnative #caribbeanbeer #nycbrewery #nycbrewed #thinknydrinkny #ebdailypic #beer #brewingnyc #nycbeer #nybeer #beerbible #beernews #newrelease #brewday #pils #pilsner #womeninbeer #womanbrewed

It’s ‘Kenèp’ season! Ever since I was a kid, my favorite thing to do was to guess which fruits had twin seeds inside. Melicoccus bijugatus, commonly called Spanish lime, genip, guinep, genipe, ginepa, kenèp, quenepa, quenepe, chenet, canepa, mamón, limoncillo, skinip, kinnip, huaya, or mamoncillo, is native to Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean to northern South America. The fruits, which are usually sold in bunches from street vendors, are usually eaten out of hand. After the brittle skin is cracked open, the fruit is squeezed into the mouth and the juice sucked from the pulp. In Columbia, the peeled fruits are boiled and the resulting juice is chilled and served as a refreshing drink on hot days (similar to kampot in case any Eastern Europeans saw these in the market and didn’t know what to do with them). In Mexico, the more acidic fruits are eaten with chilies, salt, and lime juice. Here in Haiti, we prefer to add these to a bottle of rum or corn alcohol to make a deliciously infused cocktail. The seeds are edible and can be roasted like sunflower seeds or chestnuts. The pulp can also produce a brown dye that was used in the West Indies by native Arawak people to dye clothing. #growninhaiti #kenep #ginepa #genip #spanishlime #MelicoccusBijugatus #fruit #exotic #tropical #haiti #ayiti #seasonal #native #organic #arawak #dye #foodforest #reforestation #preservation #plantsomething #seeds #twins
