ACTIVE TIMES/PACE: CST, aiming for at least a tag a day per thread
BRACKETS/PROSE: Slight prose preference, but will match
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: I'd prefer not to play out active depictions of sexual assault, but I'm okay to play out discussions or references to the topic

IN CHARACTER
PHYSICAL AFFECTION: Yes, with the note he isn't a touchy guy and will be awkward/prickly about it IC
PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: Yes
FLIRTING: Yes, why not
RELATIONSHIPS: I'm open to it, but as Thomas is an ex-priest from 1905 with a host of personal problems consider this a 'buyer beware' sticker slapped on his forehead
PSYCHIC & PSIONIC INFORMATION: Surface level impression of Thomas' thoughts would be 'hive of angry and distressed bees', talk to me to coordinate anything deeper
MAGICAL INFORMATION: Thomas is a mundane man with an imprint of something vast and green on his soul (don't worry about it)
MEDICAL INFORMATION: (As of Singatillim start) Half-healed slash wound to the chest, six half-healed stab wounds to the left abdomen, fresh small cut on his throat, outer three fingers missing from severely damaged left hand, recovering from a hard blow to the head, laudanum withdrawal, host of old scars including a large cross branded on his back and an occasional stiffness to his gait
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: Christianity, and to a lesser extent religion generally. Thomas will leap at the chance to share his thoughts on the topic if provoked, which doesn't take much, and to summarize: they're hostile!! This has gotten even more complicated lately, and I, the player, would leap at the chance to get into the subject, but I know not everyone thinks 'intense fictional debates about religion' are a good time.

OUT OF CHARACTER
BACKTAGGING: Yes, within reason
THREADHOPPING: Ask first, please
FOURTHWALLING: No
CHARACTER CONTENT WARNINGS: Violence, gore, amputated extremities (fingers), PTSD, drug addiction (laudanum), cults, Christian religious trauma, period typical attitudes, past parental abuse, Christianity, past Christian proselytizing (missionary work), past involvement in British colonialism in China as a missionary. Please leave a screened comment on this post to opt out of any or all of these topics, or Thomas as a character. My intention is to be particularly sensitive about depiction of subjects related to real life history, given the immense and ongoing harm caused by British and Christian colonialism in reality.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS
VISUAL: Dilapidated wreckage of a man. Thomas is unkempt, wrung out, and closed off, habitually hunched forward like he's wound around an anchor in his own chest. Surprisingly tall and muscular when unfolded, intense blue eyes, dark blond hair.
AURAL: Quiet, with an English accent. Tendency to hold his jaw tight and slur slightly when he speaks, exacerbated by substance use.
OLFACTORY: Stale sweat, occasional grime.
DEMEANOUR: A palpable air of tension clings to Thomas at all times, often combined with seemingly barely restrained anger. There is something obviously off about him even at a first glance, like a sick, shaking dog showing its teeth at anyone who gets close.
