+1 HUNTER

Hello there Underground! My name is Teresa and I am bringing to you Faolan from a series of books titled The Bridei Chronicles by Juliet Marillier - which I'm sure probably no one has read or even heard of so I will summarize a little here. The Bridei Chronicles are a fictional telling of the upbringing and rising into power of Bridei son of Maelchon, King of the Picts from 554 to 584. In Faolan's canon, he was King Bridei's bodyguard/assassin/translator/spy/advisor/friend. I've done my best to adapt this character to the AU of Underground which means of course that he is a private investigator/hunter, of vampires, lycanthropes, and basically anything that decides hurting humans is fun. In his book, there are no second chances, one strike and you're out (mostly anyway).

Faolan is a sort of gruff and grumbly man with a dry sense of humor who is good with weapons and fighting, bad against magic, with a tragic backstory a mile wide. He's got a secret sensitive side, for those that bother to dig for it, but he tries hard to not let it show because he hates the weakness it shows in him. And he doesn't really like himself all that much, for that matter. Solving puzzles of the jobs he's on as a private investigator (specializing in the supernatural) and catching the things he's hunting makes him happy, because they're simple tasks and he knows he's good at it. He tries not to think too much further beyond that.

I really look forward to getting him involved in game here! Faolan is coming in as a level 2 hunter in the Hillingdon clan, his PB is Jamie Dornan as the Huntsman from Once Upon a Time (which is horribly ironic now that I've AU'd him here), uhhhh. OOCly you can reach me either through PM-ing this journal, or by finding me on plurk at [plurk.com profile] lycanthropy101. Faolan's information is here and his permissions post is here and I think that's it for now!

Also here have a gif of him looking pretty and grumpy

Hello yes welcome to the game. \ o /

I'm Melly and at the moment I have Clara Seville who is a grandma ghost that's been haunting around since the 1990s. He may or may not have heard the ghostly activities going down at her coffee shop and the fact it's been haunted since the 2000s. Yes.

.... She's nice at least and doesn't mean harm? /o\

I'll totally be cool with that! I mentioned a lot of times that people have poked around the shop when hearing about the activities over the years plus the fact she's been haunting the playground next to it in her attempts to watch over the kids that frequent there. So feel free to have him discover it any way you like.

Clara is a friendly ghost she swears. Just wants people to get along and not litter the table when they finished their driiiinks.

I am! I have an open post of her doing spooky-ish things at her coffee shop place if you want to tag that or chilling at a cemetery no big deal. If not we can always have them meet in the future during other circumstances. Super stoked in having them meet. \ o /

Is it alright if I add you on my plurk? I'm under the username prognostic there!
