[OOC] Cataclysm Profile
Sep. 6th, 2019 06:32 pmCATALYST
A hyperactive Vor lord with a massive chip on his shoulder and raging inadequacy issues. Third in line to the throne of the Barrayaran Imperium, which is basically Russian Klingon Atlantis, complete with disappearing from existence three hundred years ago, only to abruptly show back up and start invading everyone about seventy-five years ago. Barrayarans are Scary As Fuck and are known for being exceptional Catalysts/Artifacts as well as an unusual number of anomalous humans. They also have no chill, but they're working on it. Miles used to be a phenomenal Catalyst capable of wielding an absurd number of Artifacts simultaneously. Then one of them died while bonded to him, and Miles was politely kicked out of the Barrayaran military for lying about how fucked up he was about that. He's here to figure out WTF is going on, but also try to figure out wtf is up with Barrayar's weird Anomaly problem. (Like Roy, Miles has deep Anomaly sympathies - because on some level he sort of is one.)
Pinnacle history: Was brilliant and scary during his education at Pinnacle, but didn't finish it; returned much later as a professor of Barrayaran culture (and the Barrayaran Ambassador).
Powers/Abilities: whatever
Ranking: Formerly R-rank; now just a B.
Partner: Roy Mustang
Appearance Notes: Extremely short - 4'9" on his tiptoes. His bones are made of magical glass courtesy of his experience with poison when he was still in utero. His extremities are super clear, while (thankfully) his chest and face have mostly opaque (but still glass) bones. A squashed, gremlin sort of appearance. Speaks with a light Russian accent that gets heavier when he's either hamming it up for effect or drinking. He was very badly hurt recently and prone to seizures as a result. He also only wears clothing that completely covers his chest and upper arms. If you get a glimpse of the skin in these areas, it's strangely blue-tinged, like his blood is a different color.
Permissions: Don't break his fingers or remove fingernails. Sex threads should be vague and/or FTB. Ditto for heavy torture/violence.

fixedstarsCHARACTER NAME: Miles Naismith Vorkosigan
CHARACTER SERIES: Vorkosigan Saga
STATS/DESCRIPTION
Name: Miles Vorkosigan / Admiral Naismith (either way, "Miles" is fine)
PB: Burn Gorman. Facetwin antics (should they arise) are welcome and encouraged.
Height: 4'9" / 145 cm
Build: Slim and a bit crooked. Surgery has fixed most of his back issues but not all of them. His bones are made from synthetic material comparable in strength to regular human bone.
Hair: Dark brown
Eyes: Gray
Age: 28, but hellishly lined by now. He's had a rough life.
Other: Miles is covered in a plethora of surgery scars from head to toe, the biggest of which being a web of scars along his neck and lower (though the suit hides most of them).
Also, despite what he says, Miles is NOT a clone. Anyone who has the scientific knowhow to detect that is free to call him on that particular bluff. In general, assume that Miles is a reasonably smooth liar (though anyone is welcome to see through him whenever they like).
[OOC]
This is the permissions list for OOC (out of character), activity.
Answer the following questions with "yes" or "no", as well as additional information if desired.
Backtagging: Totally okay. I'm not 100% at picking up, but if you ask me to continue a thread I am always down with it.
Threadhopping: Hell yes! Best at top levels, but I'm okay with interruptions too.
Fourthwalling: If your character would know, but I sincerely doubt Miles' canon is well known enough for this. Keep info vague and don't spoil future books!
Offensive subjects (elaborate): None that don't fall under "don't be a dick."
[IC]
This is the permissions list for IC (in-character), activity.
Answer the following questions with "yes" or "no", as well as additional information if desired. With IC permissions, it's a good idea to elaborate on what other players can expect from your character if they choose to do any of the following:
Hugging this character: Always. Miles loves hugs.
Kissing this character: Also great! Miles loves kisses even more.
Flirting with this character: Please. Miles' canon love life is hilarious. Please contribute to it.
Fighting with this character: ALSO FANTASTIC. Just note that Miles has bodyguards and word tends to get around.
Injuring this character (include limits and severity): Completely fine. Please talk to me first if we're getting anywhere above, say, a broken bone. Generally, though, I love getting this idiot into trouble.
Killing this character: Nnnnot in Atlas unless I'm planning on dropping.
Using telepathy/mind reading abilities on this character: Absolutely fine. Just note that Miles is noisy and canonically good at frustrating truth serums, etc.
Warnings: VKS is a pretty dark canon overall. I'll happily shy away from any topics that you don't want to get into, but common themes of the series include: infanticide, ableism, suicide, sexism (referenced as a negative), rape/sexual assault, etc.

Jan. 2nd, 2016 01:44 pmSTATS/DESCRIPTION
Name: Miles Vorkosigan / Admiral Naismith (either way, "Miles" is fine)
PB: Burn Gorman. Yes, this is the same actor as Hermann Gottlieb. I'm perfectly fine with the two characters being mixed up as long as Hermann's player is too.
Height: 4'8"
Build: Slim and rather crooked. He has a visible hunchback and metal braces on his legs. Due to his fragile bones, he's even lighter than he looks.
Hair: Dark brown
Eyes: Gray
Age: 20, but looks a bit old for his age. Could be anywhere from 20 to 30 just looking at him.
Other: Miles is covered in a plethora of surgery scars from head to toe, mostly centered around his bones. Due to the teratogenic damage he suffered, his bones are extremely brittle and break even with a small amount of pressure.
Also, despite what he says, Miles is NOT a clone. Anyone who has the scientific knowhow to detect that is free to call him on that particular bluff. In general, assume that Miles is a reasonably smooth liar (though anyone is welcome to see through him whenever they like).
OOC
backtagging: Hell yes! I also encourage poking me for tags because I tend to wander off sometimes.
fourthwalling: Yyyyyyes but only in vague terms. Don't spoil future books unless you're a castmate, and don't give him his life story in the first thread.
offensive subjects: Probably nothing.
IC
hugging this character: Go for it! Miles likes hugs.
kissing this character: And he definitely likes kisses. :3
flirting with this character: Prepare for flirting back.
fighting with this character: Yes, totally! Be advised that any remotely decent hit will break something. This is normal for him. We can play it however you want, though - serious pain or a comedic "oh fuck not again."
injuring this character: Oh yes, I expect this this to happen constantly.
killing this character: Yes, but warn me first so I can clear with CR.
using telepathy/mind reading abilities on this character: Hahahaha oh yes. Two warnings though: Miles canonly resists interrogation extremely well and will recite Shakespeare in his head at you if he thinks you're listening, and b) he has a telepathic link to Gregor Vorbarra! This is fairly obvious to any telepath peeking in.
