NAME: tanz
CONTACT:

estrapade (or PM this journal)
ABOUT: loves losers and dragons, which explains everything

NAME: Geir
CANON: Original Character
INFO: Info post is here! Relevant facts probably include:
- ENORMOUS SERPENTY MAGICAL APOCALYPSE DRAGON from Norse mythology rewrite #49488389
- Supposed to end the world
- Got sidetracked??
- Went on a road trip with the loser who summoned him instead???
- Is kind of having a crisis about that but you know, low key, we're playing this chill, cool cool cool cool cool cool cool no doubt
- Has been sleeping most of his life and knows nothing about 95% of things
- Very friendly and interested in learning and new experiences!
- Will eat you, but only if you're mean to his loser summoner (

rootbound)
- Sssssss
MAGIC: From his info: Enlivening. Up to 10 feet around Geir, seeds will sprout, people or animals will feel refreshed or invigorated, etc. (NOT healing - just a bracer). When controlling the effect, he can expand it to a wider area, focus it to give living thing(s) a bigger boost at his direction, bring back the dead, or make a nonliving object live, in order of how much exertion that will take; the latter two will wipe him out for a long time and have a lot of caveats.
CR REQUESTS: Oh god, anything, please. Geir will like:
- People of good intent
- People who hate everything
- People who are human
- People who aren't human and/or hate humans
- People who will befriend his misanthropic summoner

Geir will not like:
- People who are mean to his misanthropic summoner where he can see you (just making well-intentioned faces at him is fine, Geir understands)
- People who make him confront his enormous existential uncertainty and confusion as to the nature of good and evil (please do this)

As long as a character is willing to explain new stuff and there's something he can laugh at in how they come across to him, there's a pretty good chance he'll enjoy talking to them!

Moon is definitely going to think he's a Pokemon at first.

Geir will be completely unoffended at this and ask 10 billion questions

He'll also secretly think it's a cute idea, by which I mean, he'll say outright that that's a cute idea.

Same face!

I fell in love with your dragon the moment I saw your icons. They're so cute! I'm super glad to have this cute apocalypse dragon in the game.

And it's a pleasure to meet you Tanz. I'm Aya! I play Yuuko Ichihara, the Space Time Witch, from xxxHolic. Yuuko spends most of her time drinking and helping along the kids who are new to this magic thing.

I hope they get along. I think they will. Yuuko, at the very least, will be stoked about the whole dragon thing~

Thank you, I'm so happy with them too! If anyone ever wants some super adorable icons I highly rec dropping

saikou_everyday a line, she does the cutest monster art (and some super cute human art as well).

I'm 100% sure Yuuko and Geir will get along, from what I know of xxxHolic. Cryptic witches who drink a lot fit right into his understanding of the universe. And this is my first time in a formal game for a couple of years, so I'm really excited to meet everyone!

You don't know about 95% of things

Xion does't know about 95% of things

Let's find out about all the things together

Xion why are there even so many things, 95 is a really high number. There should be more like... 9.

Oh nice, hey! A dragon that isn't a total egotistical butt that wants to sleep and find out about new things~

Surely he'd do well to avoid the mischievous zombie girl that would be more than happy to show him the path that ROCKS.

Geir is a-okay with any and all paths right now. BRING IT, DEAD GIRL

OH IT WILL BE BROUGHT.

She's so going to get eaten, isn't she.

!!!!!!

I wanna touch all the dragon and ALSO wanna rp with tanz so win/win for me

ELLIE

REACHES FORRRRRR

oh my god i don't even know how to answer for this dork's malevolence. YES?????

I'm just saying, there's literally a 100% chance that Kosuzu will faint immediately upon meeting Geir

Okay but, the important thing is, does the way Geir's magic ability works mean she'll just wake up right away and then faint again?

eliza is human (sort of) but considers herself a dragon (because of her horns/tail/thanks holy grail) who is also struggling with the ideas of good & evil so let's have them pretend to ignore it together

IGNORING THINGS IS AWESOME AND EVERYONE SHOULD DO IT!

Honestly Geir is pretty bad at ignoring things but he can sure give it the good ol' college try.

it's okay, jeanne does not know much about some Life Things, either, and she wasn't even asleep for most of her life. they should learn together!

LEARNING TOGETHER SOUNDS EXCELLENT. Geir is also super Fighty so all these warrior Fate/types are exciting!

ok but what about befriending AND bullying his summoner?

as long as you let him watch! 8D

Hakuno happens to be a huge history and mythology nerd, and has a ~~survival tactic~~ hobby of figuring mythological identities inside of a week. Also as a Magical Moon AI who was supposed to get deleted much earlier, Hakuno is with him for that existential conundrum hell.

What will impress Geir just as much as Hakuno figuring out who he is, is that there are other pantheons to study in the first place! SURELY WE CAN TALK ABOUT THAT AND NOT ABOUT WHETHER WE SHOULD EXIST, NEW FRIEND

his magic is SO GOOD
minato is someone who always looks on the verge of death, so he might be drawn to geir like a snake to sunlight, haha. coffee magic \o/

BUCK UP, SCRAWNY SMT STRANGER!
