Okay. Thaniel has been around for a while now and it's time we sort out what people know and what they down't know about him. I'd like to ask that everyone is realistic about what truth they may know about him and what rumors they believe about him. I don't want everyone knowing the entire truth about his circumstances.
Here is what some of you can choose to know as truth: (Be realistic with what your character knows. Knowing everything on this list will annoy me and ruin my fun in playing him)
Rumors that some of you may choose to believe:
More to come. If you have more ideas for rumors, let me know and I will add them if I like them. If you have an idea for a story, let me know.
Sorry to come off as harsh. You have no idea how often I play characters with weaknesses that everyone wants to take advantage of right away. Thaniel is weak and if people just want to knock him down all the time or use his weaknesses against him in a way that's unfair to me, I'll get mad. I want to play him in a realistic way and I hope other players will respect that.
Here is what some of you can choose to know as truth: (Be realistic with what your character knows. Knowing everything on this list will annoy me and ruin my fun in playing him)
- He nearly killed a muggle.
- He's a half-blood. (I'm seeking people who want to make him feel bad about this fact. Especially Slytherins.)
- He wept like a baby at his trial.
- He bleeds silver blood when feeling vulnerable. (This is a well guarded fact so please weigh carefully if your character would know this. If you are a newbie or I haven't yet role played with you as Thaniel, I may not like you know this fact.)
- He wants to be well-liked and respected. He really wants to be treated just like another student.
- Some paintings around Hogwarts exist with manifestations of him in them.
- He has the ability to be nice to non-Slytherins if there is something about this person he can admire.
- No one knows why he died. His murder never made sense. It had to be more than a botched robbery.
- He can't move anything in damp conditions. (Also, this is not a truth everyone should invite themselves to just know.)
Rumors that some of you may choose to believe:
- He's gay. (He can give off a gay vibe.)
- He killed a muggle and for some reason the Ministry can't put him in Azkaban for it.
- He's part Dementor and that's why he can make people feel dispair when going through him.
- He controls the weather. He can control the wind but only a little.
More to come. If you have more ideas for rumors, let me know and I will add them if I like them. If you have an idea for a story, let me know.
