ROSE | KYLO REN

[photophobic]

PLAYER
Name (& Pronouns): Rose, she/her
Contact: starktech or cryloren#2195 on discord, feel free to add me!
Availability: Chronic insomniac in AST. I can be pretty slow at the moment but can work up a good run of tags in an evening if I get in the zone. It's much easier for me to keep up momentum with a partner or two at a time than try and juggle lots of things with bigger gaps between tags, but as long as I know you're interested in continuing I'll tag you back if you tag me. I'm also completely comfortable re-working a tag if what I've sent doesn't work for you, please let me know! I really won't be offended.
Preferences: I don't have much of a preference for style and am happy to match yours! I get a bit lengthier in my prose and snappier in action bracket things, though in both cases I don't feel it's necessary to match the length of the previous reply. If it's got something I can respond to that's plenty long enough, single-sentence tags are A-OK.
Relationship Tropes: I love complicated and unusual relationships. On the positive side I go all in for: unexpected commonalities, technically enemies but with a grudging respect for each other, unintended mentorships, allies by necessity. I also love exploring complex negative and confrontational CR, but only if you're just as into it as I am! I want to write with you, not against you.
Plot Tropes: I love drama! Particularly sustained/slow burn, relationship-driven stories. I love themes of redemption/reconciliation/revenge and the choices around those. I like forced team-ups and plots that take characters out of their comfort zones: role-reversals, peril and survival, any number of AU/what-if scenarios. Aaaand I like to balance heavier plots with a good dose of humour at my character's expense.
Hard No: There aren't many things I absolutely will not play, it all depends on the characters involved— but I really struggle with small-talk type interactions.

CHARACTER
Name/Alias: Ben SoloKylo Ren, though he's not as firm on Ren these days. By this point his birth name isn't really a secret, but it isn't common knowledge either and he will not answer to it.
Information: Please enjoy this terrible write-up that Kylo would be furious about. Kylo comes to MoM from just after discovering Palpatine on Exogol.
Occupation: Kylo is a poet, regularly published in the Verse Hearse, which is a terrible emo poetry zine.
First Thing You'd Notice: Kylo is intimidatingly Large and prone to long, unsettlingly intense stares. Psychics/empaths etc would pick up on an unpleasant tangle of emotions, while even regular folks might comment on a kind of "aura of menace". He's just kinda creepy.
First Yahoogle Result: Kylo is the subject of a number of memes including the Kylo Ren Challenge, which involves attempting to get close enough to take a selfie with Kylo without his knowledge. The more unusual/unexpected the backdrop or the closer participants get, the more successful they consider themselves. Top marks currently: a selfie taken at a froyo stand, featuring Kylo demanding more sprinkles. More!
Frequent Locations: Kylo spends most of his time in his definitely not a villain lair fortress of not-so-solitude in the Arctic Circle, but visits De Chima to check in on his interests there on occasion. He can also sometimes be found wherever Rey is/was, as she has the ability to summon him to her location but not the ability to send him back. Oops.
Close Relationships: Kylo's engaged!! but to Ronan, who he has chosen, not to Rey, who he is bound to through the Force. Or was. It's complicated. There are also a number of folks he's genetically related to wandering around, and he has a whole host of complex feelings about that too.
Recent Activity: Kylo's been somewhat clumsily exploring the concepts of family/belonging and the expectations of legacy/destiny on his own terms, though Rey's recent arrival has thrown a wrench in his plans.
Character Goals: Kylo is exceptionally determined to Exist Here, and will do just about anything to hold onto everything he's gained. Which is unfortunate for everybody really, as his s/o just got wiped out of history. Once he's taken the edge off with a violent rampage through a roller rink or two, Kylo will be focusing on getting Ronan back. At any cost.
Power Goals: I will gladly lend Kylo's powers as a brutally violent space sorcerer to anyone needing one to fight with, against or be trained by: I love getting to play Kylo in a teaching role. Kylo's mental abilities can be actively used for extracting information, or to give him passive insight into the hidden aspects of characters who might otherwise be closed off or secretive. If he gains this kind of information about your character he isn't the type to go spreading it about, preferring to keep it to himself— so if you'd like an unexpected (and fairly unpleasant) confidante, hit me up!
Possible Roles: Kylo's a necessary kind of monster. He can do all kinds of horribly villainous things as long as they serve his purposes, and I'd be delighted to provide him as an adversary for characters with opposing goals/a dangerous ally for characters sharing them. He's also good for forced team-ups, and I love writing training threads! Kylo will gladly assist your character in unlocking their true potential, particularly if that involves learning to use/accept "dark" powers your character would rather be rid of. He can also be a pretty useful cautionary tale, and is reasonably easy to manipulate if approached from the right angle.
Desperately Seeking: For all his personal growth Kylo isn't particularly remorseful about any of his previous actions. I'd love to get that poked at! It would be delicious to have a particularly threatening adversary for him, too... whether that's a bigger bad who wants to take him down/take his stuff/demand allegiance or some other kind of threat to the future he's building for himself and Ronan.
Specific Scenarios: FORCED TO SURVIVE TOGETHER. Please. I love the idea of Kylo being forced to rely on someone else, particularly if they don't know or even like each other. All I want for my birthday is any flavour of injured/incapacitated and tended to by my enemies. Seriously.
Anything Else:
