+1 Feral Elf

[holtfinder]

Hello, all! I'm Solstice, and I'm new to the game, bringing you Moonshade from the Elfquest comics by Wendy and Richard Pini. Moonshade is a tanner and huntress from a tribe of primarily forest-dwelling elves. She's a little wild, but also a very skilled woman in her fields.

She's coming in with a wolf-friend companion, a grey-furred wolf named Steadypaw, who's large enough for her to ride. He's the best puppy, but is still very much a wild wolf at heart.

As an aside, Moonshade's only true magical ability is one that's an opt-in: Sending. Elves have the ability to communicate telepathically in the Elfquest canon, but as there's no elves around, she may try to reach out to people here with that ability instead. Psychic-sensitives like Jedi or those with experience with telepathy may be receptive to her Sending--but that's for you to decide. Please leave me a note on my Permissions post if you're interested in opting into that.

I'm eager to meet all of you! Feel free to reach out to me at darkersolstice or darkersolstice#9463 on Discord for plotty shenanigans.

Well then, have a proper hello from me on here.

I'm still Zet and I only play Jon from the Magnus Archives, who lives in the library and got adopted by a mothcat who then had her grubby litter in there. They will be cautiously curious about Moonshade's wolf frand.

Given that Jon has acquired his own rather Eldritch and much less communicative version of telepathy, I'll say he's receptive to her Sending and give you may okay to go ahead with it.

Excellent, be ready for Moony in your head.

Also, I'm excited to meet the mothcats!

OMGWTFBBQ

It's been an Age since I read them but I was always a big Elfquest fan :D! It makes me all sorts of happy to see someone playing from them.

Hi I'm Angel and I play this little bastard, Kaz Brekker from the grishaverse books (which is now adapted to a Netflix show that's actually pretty good) but book!Kaz is pretty much chaotic neutral since sometimes he does bad things and sometimes he does good. He's always rude though, so fair warning for that.

[holtfinder]

Excellent! I actually haven't finished the show or the books, but I never mind spoilers. And chaotic neutral won't actually be unfamiliar or too much of a problem for Moonshade. She's only Lawful if you consider The Way to be 'law'.

HALLOoooo

Welcome aboard! I'm Aya, and I play Cal Kestis and Cayde-6. Also was test-driving Elias WOW Elfquest. I...have never read them but I know it has been around! Yay for wolf friends!

Cal's my Jedi boy here, Cayde's a weird robot who's got some spacemagic thing going on. I look forward to tossing both at Moonshade! One day I will stop reading that as moonshine

[holtfinder]

I can't judge, I called her Moondance on the TDM, because Mercedes Lackey.

I'm excited to meet both your Jedi and your robutt! There was a Cal in another game I was in and he seemed like a Very Good Boy.

[deal_me_in]

He is the goodest. ...I was totally going to hit up that permissions post and then wandered off.

I have been bad at leaving hellos on this end but HELLO I KNOW YOU

I only have this clone Echo from a star war and I know nothing of Elfquest but I look forward to playing with youuu even though I tagged into your log just now shhh

Welcome to the game! :D

[holtfinder]

I know very little about a Star War, but I'm eager to learn. :D

[on_repeat]

Aside from being a very long war in the stars, it is very crazy stuff. :D;;; I also want to learn more of an Elfquest. :D

[holtfinder]

You know, I can help you with that: Read Elfquest Online.

There is some potentially triggering content here, including some situations of dubious consent (super magic destined love where the characters have no say), violence, blood, abuse of psychic powers, etc.

Oh nice– not the content, but the link. Thanks for letting me know!
