xistentiaooc | CR Meme #5

Player name/preferred contact: Moony (

moony810/Moony#1116 on Discord)

Character name and canon: The Dragonborn/Vanyel Greyjoy - Skyrim

About them: A nerdy pansexual mage with the soul of a dragon; enjoys cooking, reading, nerding about magic, long walks, spoiling his and Rose's five squillion dogs

Current plans: Well right now he and Rose are having Words about things that happened on her recent canon update - specifically, her brilliant idea of killing herself in a bid to weaken the enemy leader. Some time soon, he's gonna nip home and deal with the last couple crises on his plate in his own world so he can follow her to hers and put a stop to that nonsense. Also in the near future, he might finally open that pub he's been thinking about. And, sometime in June, he and Rose will be getting married.

Desired CR: Literally any. Theirs is still an open relationship, impending nuptials or no, so sex/fwb/even romance aren't entirely off the table? Though with Farraige leaving and considering he has two other people he's madly in love with waiting for him back home, the third option is... not super likely, tbh. But also, more platonic friends are always nice - people to spar with, talk magic or alchemy or whatever else with, adventure buddies.

Not looking for: I wouldn't say I'm not looking for it, but... negative CR is genuinely really difficult with him? Like, it takes a lot for him to dislike anyone in the first place, and he'd rather avoid people/things he dislikes than engage with them, so...

Other info:

We should definitely do something with these two nerding about magic, and maybe trying to teach each other forms of it unique to their worlds (or at least trying to translate them to work with their world of origin's magic or whatever) +u+

OMG yes!!! It'd be especially interesting to try and translate something like Shouts from one magic system into the other, I think :3

Era would find Shouts super cool aaaa *u* They are like absolutely nothing in her world. The closest she could think of as a comparison would be like a Bard using songs to cast various types of magic!

And it just hit me that she would understand all of the Shouts and Dragon language thanks to her Echo, if for some reason Xist's translating abilities didn't work for them.

And the Bard stuff would interest him in turn, since human mages and bards in his world don't use anything like incantations - that's definitely a dragon-only kind of thing. But the Astrologian and Red magic she mentioned way back when piqued his curiosity too!

Ohhh man, that would be so neat. I'd never really thought about whether Xist/F.A.T.E.S. could translate Shouts before - but now that I am, I tend to think not, or at least not entirely? Considering it's plot point that 90% of everybody have to study for years to use/understand it...

Yeah XIV Bards are super fun since they sing/play music during combat, and the music itself is the incantation. I love the lore behind them too aaaa

Astrologian magic would be tricky for her to manage here since she hasn't connected with the constellations or whatever. The power is derived from the stars and. Yeah. +3+ I'll have to do more research on how that would work outside of Eorzea!

Red Magic doesn't rely on external factors like that though, so it's fair game.

Yeah! I think it would make sense that F.A.T.E.S. wouldn't, but it also would make sense if it did...

As for Era, given that the Echo translates the soul and I know for a fact that the Dragonborn has a soul she would understand it but definitely not be able to speak it. She'd want to learn more about it for sure though - like the theory and info behind it, because the lore sounds super fascinating!

Brb still pouting over how Bards in Skyrim don't actually do shit >.>

Oof, yeah, that *would* make the practical side a little tricky even just to demonstrate, wouldn't it. He'd prob be okay just learning theory though, tbh - he's done that a *lot* with the other mages/wizards/warlocks/etc he's met so far.

But yay for Red Magic!! His lowkey goal is to learn things he could apply back home, in particular, so that works especially well. He might also pick her brain re: killing god-level enemies, if this happens after his... uh... *discussion* with Rose on the event log.

Yeah, I think F.A.T.E.S. would be able to provide... a rough translation, at best? like not entirely comparable synonyms, wonky but understandable grammar on longer phrases, that sort of thing. Because the dragons do also use it as just, like, a language - but we're never shown Ulfric or the Greybeards or anyone *but* dragons being able to do that, so ???

Lore and theory are still totally doable, though, for sure, even if she can't learn the actual language. ^.^

Character name and canon: Ion Fortuna, Trinity Blood

About them: Smol fighty vampire nobleman from a post-Apocalyptic world, goals before Xistentia included stopping the merry band of jackasses who want to start Apocalypse #2. Hotheaded, trying to improve on that. Recovering tsundere.

Current plans: Um. I honestly have done very little plotting with him re: this event. He could get involved in the cleanup from the psy-bomb if there's still room for more volunteers on that? His only real secret he's been keeping is his Doomed Love (TM) for a human girl back home, so he could always just awkwardly blurt that out to all sundry.

Desired CR: Friends! Enemies! Other vampires who have no hang-ups about the word and could maybe teach him to vampire properly, since he's a lame-o who's only ever drunk blood substitute mixed into his wine. :p Romance is possible, but considering his hangups and trust issues, likely to be very slow burn. Sparring partners! Negative CR too - that's much easier to get with him than with Van, tbh.

Not looking for: n/a

Other info:
the truth about trinity blood
(link bc it's a big picture)

lmao would you like to do confession awkwardness with kavinsky?

kavinsky is also Bad At Love. tbf he's definitely worse at it than ion is.

Ion would just about *die* of mortification - not just bc he's suddenly babbling about deeply personal things, but to *kavinsky* of all people-!!! So sure, suffering builds character and whatnot :D

(Also I feel you should know my autocorrect wanted to rename k 'Gavin sky.')

lmao gavin sky. sounds kind of like a porno name i guess? thanks, autocorrect.

OK GOOD. I'M SORRY ION. players are mean

well if he ever needs/wants one you have one now???

HAHA this is actually far from the meanest thing I've ever done to him, tbqh
