IN CHARACTER
- Hugging: Honestly someone trying to touch him affectionately without warning is likely to run the risk of being punched in the face on instinct or having him freeze up completely. But feel free to try!
- Kissing: Depending on the context, he might be open to it. Romance is not high on his life experience list, however, so he isn't likely to take the initiative himself or anticipate it.
- Smut: Again, as above. Gerard doesn't have problems with sex but it tends not to be a top priority.
- Relationships:
- Fighting: This is familiar territory for him. Gerard has made a lot of enemies over the years and gotten into a number of fights so he will definitely throw down if he feels its necessary.
- Injuries: Sure, he's from a horror podcast and has suffered his fair share of injuries in the past. PM me to work out details!
- Death: It's Complicated (tm). Message me if want to do something in this area.
- Psychic: Generally speaking people can give it a shot, however Gerard has vaguely defined powers related to 'knowing' things and may pick up on it. PM me and we can work out details!
- Magical: Gerard has the abovementioned vaguely defined abilities and connection to supernatural entities. As always, PM me to work out more details.
- Medical: Gerard has scars from second degree burns over 80% of his body that are easily apparent. He additionally doesn't look like he eats or sleeps particularly well, and he's a smoker. Depending on canon point, he also has an undiagnosed brain tumour.
- Triggers:
JURGEN LEITNER. His family in general and his mother in particular.
OUT OF CHARACTER
- Backtagging: I will adore you forever for this. I work a pretty stressful 8-6 job five days so there are some days where I am just wiped and Cannot. I am always happy to work out details if you don't want to backtag to infinity and beyond.
- Threadjacking: So long as it's not a locked or highly person thread or the threadjacking is used to shoulder me out of a scene, I'm open to it!
- Fourthwalling: Hard pass. Gerard's life is already pretty rough and finding out someone made him up for entertainment purposes would not help at all.
- Limits: I have very high limits with regard to creep, horror, and gore tbh, but I'll always message to make sure we're on the same page if anything like that might come up.
FIRST IMPRESSIONS
- VISUAL: Gerard is described as tall and thin with long, poorly dyed black hair. Despite looking like a light weight, he's also often described as surprisingly strong, even as a teenager. Every joint on his body is covered by a black tattoo of an eye, and there is another over his heart. From his neck down his entire body is covered with the scar of a second degree burn, however all of the tattoos are untouched with each having a circle around them as though the burns could not pass that point. His neck has an equally neat line around it where the burn ends.
- AURAL:
- OLFACTORY: Cigarettes. Depending what else he's been doing... leather and sweat. Petrol and smoke. Sometimes sharp and cheap chemical hair dye.
- DEMEANOUR:
