Pandora's Fox II
PANDORA'S FOX II
If you were here last June, do you remember that app that appeared on the relics then, Pandora's Fox? It's all about finding your Familiar bond. It's been available for people to use since every Star Child was forced to fill it out or have it filled out for them with its grand reveal. However, it's sat quietly in the background unobtrusive to those who didn't click to see what it was about.
Until now.
That's right, Pandora's Fox is back! (and with a makeover). The app has been rejiggered with old questions and new, including some specific to each Role! The app will buzz and open itself with a blank profile waiting to be filled out. Star Children can fill it out for themselvesโas long as they don't lie. This app will not allow Star Children to lie. Honesty is important in a Familiar bond. Star Children who lie may find that answer filled in a little too honestly and unable to be deleted. Anyone who waits too long to fill it in will find it answered for them!
Familiar bonds come in all different shapes and sizes, so find the right person for you!
This is game canon!
Forms for your characters!

56 | No thanks | Legend
My favorite of these colors is: Orchid
I live in: Gram
I spend a lot of time in: Wherever my feet take me
I choose these areas because: There's always something to see - who wants to stay in one place all the time?
Regions/locations I avoid: n/a
I avoid them because: n/a
Reasons I would form a Familiar bond: Just curious for now. Could be fun. Let's talk about it.
What I want from a Familiar Bond: A potentially interesting new experience.
I have these physical traits: Do you know what a Deva is? Like that, only still grey.
My mood ring eye colors mean: I don't know, you'd probably be better asking Astarion.
The best way to help people is: Helping them figure out how to help themselves.
My dealbreakers are: Intolerance, people prying into stuff that's none of their business, anyone who tries to take away other people's freedom

You can just not gender?
no subject
[It's not really the first time it's been questioned but with the pronouns Tav usually uses it doesn't come up much.]
I've felt like this since I was little.
no subject
[Quill was not expecting his entire worldview to shift today!]
I thought mortals couldn't. That it was just a Fae thing.
no subject
[Something something fey ancestry.]
no subject
No one ever implied that elves or half-elves were different than other mortals in any sense. Not really, anyways.
no subject
[So... maybe?]
But if I'm remembering right, that was twenty five thousand years ago. Guess things have changed since then.
no subject
[Quill considers it with a curious hum. He should've just not commented at all, but something about this is Very Important to his little bunny brain.]
That long on the Material Plane for other elves would change things I suppose.
no subject
I've met plenty of humans, and people of other races, presenting as a different gender to their sex. Or just rejecting it entirely.
[He lets out a little laugh.]
I use male pronouns still, but nonbinary ones work just as well.
no subject
[It's interesting...
Academically, of course. It could never be anything more than that for him.
He couldn't allow it.]
How would you even know?
[This is all just curiosity about a new concept. That's it. Quill doesn't sound slightly shaken in some way, like one might just before their very first performance.]
no subject
[And it had been very confusing, truth be told!]
I figured it out when I was a teenager. Once I found out there were words for how I was feeling.
no subject
[And it sounds like the sort of thing that requires self reflection and a sense of oneself that Quill doesn't, can't allow himself to have.
He has to be Quill, not...
Gods, did he even know who he'd be otherwise anymore?]
It must have been a relief, yes? To know for sure what was going on.
no subject
[A shrug.]
My parents were pretty cool about it, too.
no subject
[And we're not talking about the sudden icy wash of absolute envy that hits Quill at the almost off-hand addition of the idea of supportive parents in the picture. It was common enough and easily shrugged off by this point.]
I... can only imagine that's not always the case?
no subject
[Which he understands, he supposes, but not enough to think it should be a permanent issue.]
Awful thing to reject your own kid because they didn't turn out how you expected.

Well, okay... They're aberrations that control minds, and 'reproduce' by sticking a larva into the brain of another species, usually through the eye. After seven days of increasingly worsening, very painful symptoms that person goes through something called ceremorphosis, where their entire personality and their memories are consumed and a new mind flayer is produced from the shell of their body. They survive by eating brains, only from people who are still alive, and consider themselves to be the absolute pinnacle of evolution.
[And honestly, he's still being pretty polite about it.]
no subject
Well! That is rather nasty and, frankly, they sound awful! Does the new mind flayer take on the personality and traits of the person they consumed?
no subject
[Personal experience ringing true.]
But they're not. They absorb the person's memories - they remember them - but they aren't them. They're something else.

[If you can call what Tav highly suspects to be an avatar of the now-defunct god of death a good authority. He never did outright ask Withers exactly what he was and he didn't think he'd get an answer even if he laid out his suspicions right in front of the guy, but there were definitely suspicions.]
They're not all entirely evil, but... exceptions proving the rule, and all that.

[To say nothing of the fact he almost became one himself, but he really does try not to think about that too hard.]
Ceremorphosis is no joke.
