info code WIP

“didn’t you just update your info less than a week ago” yes but consider: what if it was claustrophobic


don’t ask me what the backend of this looks like it’s a hot mess. hypothetically images and maybe side decorations (gradients??) will go here later.

mostly I want to make sure dreamwidth doesn’t screw with the code too much as-is…

Caitlyn Kiramman
  • canon Arcane (show only)
  • canonpoint season 2 default
  • (voicetesting)
  • memes & PSLs
Screenshot from the show featuring a propaganda poster of Caitlyn. A streak of bright blue graffiti has been drawn across her eyes.

Heir to Leader of a wealthy sociopolitical powerhouse in the upper half of a fantasy-steampunk city. Would rather track targets than talk politics. Heavy is the crown, but Caitlyn makes use of what she has.

first impressions

visual
  • height
    ~183cm/6ft~
  • build
    slim + fit
  • age
    ~20–23~
  • eyes
    bright blue
demeanor
  • Fairly stiff, generally stern, and not prone to large gestures. Contained, but—
  • Both facially and vocally expressive. (additional reference: first-season gifspam; large images, may cause lag)
  • Says more with her eyes and hands than words.
  • Has sardonic moments. Occasionally touchy.
additional
  • No superhuman abilities, but insanely good with a gun. Subsequently I tend to nerf it, if she has it at all.
  • Early- & mid-season 2 Caitlyn is obsessed with one (1) goal. Late-s2 Caitlyn is still focused, but capable of having a conversation that isn’t about her emotional support manhunt. Happy to play either, or even try a season 1 canonpoint for a less-overtly-harmful flavor of fixation.

permission-notes

As a rule of thumb: Yes, go for it. Go crazy, go stupid; no warnings necessary! If in doubt, contact via journal PM.


Content warnings for this character include classism, familial death, terrorism and state violence, and (towards the end) war. Arcane as a canon deals with themes including (but not limited to) mental health, suicide, drug use, and terminal illness.

Caitlyn is unlikely to bring up heavy topics unprompted. She doesn’t shy from them, either. Opt-out post is here.

out of character
  • backtagging» indefinitely
  • threadhopping ✔? » probably fine but ask first
  • fourthwalling ✔? »

    No OOC objections. Just be warned that, if she doesn’t dismiss it outright, Caitlyn is liable to have a shitton of questions.

  • crosscanon + crossmedium ✔✔✔ » I love it

    If there’s no AU from launch, I vaguely assume crosscanon CR is set in a handwaved-meme-void, fake jamjar, Cait got isekai’d, wherever.

in character
  • physical affection ~✔ »

    Reaction will depend on canonpoint & relationship to the toucher, but Caitlyn tends to appreciate this. She’ll occasionally offer it herself, even to a stranger, as a means of comfort.

  • romance + shipping ???¿?… »

    Caitlyn’s character arc is inextricably tied to her partner’s, and it is uhhh complicated. OOCly I’m open to whatever, so hit me up if you’re interested; otherwise, Caitlyn will likely turn down any advances.

    +She also prefers women, in a “the canon doesn’t use sexuality terms, but there is so much gay shit and absolutely zero interest in men with this one, she’s lesbian in all but label” way.
    I’m not super interested in pursuing M/F with Caitlyn, but I have no moral objections to barbie-mashing so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ the figurative door is, if (and only if) we already have good RP rapport, open a crack.

  • violence + injury» with footnotes:

    Caitlyn is an extremely proficient sniper. She’ll raise her rifle at a moment’s notice, but doesn’t tend to fire recklessly. With the exception of one (1) person, Caitlyn will let her target talk long before she pulls the trigger.

    At close range, depending on canonpoint she’s somewhere on a scale from “absolute hot garbage, OHKO’d” to “can spar like a sewer rat, but will probably still get her ass kicked.”

  • mind-reading»

    No defenses here. Liable to be profoundly unhappy about this, if found out. Feel free to give me a nudge if you want more mental tripwires to navigate!

🙈 special Jinx note 🎯
Do you play Caitlyn’s target? Awesome! Fuck me up.

Open to hashing stuff out in advance, or just winging whatever insanity unfolds on its own. Stupid in-law texting, serious canon-adjacent death standoffs, whatever. I will happily make Caitlyn eat dirt if it keeps the thread interesting. Any idea you got, shoot your shot!


ok main weirdness points: the flex widths at the top (same as local). fixed the box-sizing. nice!!
