Hello!

[protagonized]

Hi there! I'm Emily and I am brand new to undergrounds. I'm bringing in Simon O'Neill, an original character. He's a Redbright Institute-aligned shapeshifter and is kind of a neurotic wreck most of the time. He's also not totally zen with his transformation, so he views the magical world with confusion and some suspicion. That needs to be changed! Or reinforced, depending on your character's alignment. Also, he's totally not okay with other shapeshifters so I would love him to meet some.

Simon is a student at University College London and lives in a tiny, cramped flat near its main campus in Bloomsbury. He's also a part-time barista at Starbucks in Covent Garden, so he can do a lot of interactions that way as well.

Anyway...hi! I'm super excited to be here. :3 I can be reached via PM or on Plurk at colotheory.

Hello and welcome! My name is Teresa and I play John Childermass (knowstheworld) from Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, and a character here by the name of Faolan from a book series called The Bridei Chronicles by Juliet Marillier. In the process of modernizing him, I gave him the surname O'Neill -- O'Neill's represent!!!

Childermass is a Circle Daybreak witch and basically Norrell's go-to for just about everything, begrudgingly. Faolan is a regular old human hunter in the Hillingdon clan, as well as a Night Council Guardian -- supernatural police essentially! Faolan would be sort of like the bad cop, he's the one who's good at spying, doing the dirty work, following the orders no one else wants, etc. But he has a secret squishy center, once people dig through the armor.

TL;DR THOSE ARE MY CHARACTERS welcome to undergrounds, I look forward to playing with you/seeing you around! :)

O'Neill pride! Maybe they can be long-lost sort-of relatives, since Simon was adopted.

APOLOGIES FOR THE DELAY HERE the work week is killer for me

but perhaps they can be yes! faolan's family is actually canonically supposed to be super big and far-reaching, and sort of an off-branch of the same family as the high king of tara in ireland??? BUT here in game, his whole immediate family is dead and beyond that he doesn't know

BUT THEY TOTALLY COULD BE THOUGH want a grumpy irish hunter somewhere in your family tree simon hahaha
