Roooofl pfhahaha that is so great, Aryian looks so thrilled. XD Can you imagine if Mar found Lock-Ary, painted something on him, and then saw his painting on Poi? SO MUCH CONFUSION.
“This stuff is surprisingly durable.”

Roooofl I’ve been secretly laughing. XD Drive by face paint
Going on Beast’s suggestion to draw Mar painting Ary’s face, hahaha. I had Mar sketched in there but I think the sketch is more interesting without him. Obviously I used Beast’s most recent lock face how-to guide.
I don’t know if Ancient greeks used facepaint, XD or what Mar would paint, so I went symbolic. I think he’d just leave a mark on the place he feels most connected to.
*This totally looks like a drive by face paint.
Leave me soooome.. suggestions on Ary/Marmareon or Ary/Gale interactions.
Or any time period really.
I’m so in the mood for face-pats and fluff art tonight.
I had forgotten how young girls married in ancient greece. :I Eww. No. Mar ain’t marrying no fifteen year old. Screw accuracy.
Something to think about later. Maybe his wife had been previously married, the husband died, the dowry is returned and she’s a little older and difficult to remarry. She eventually ends up with Marmareon and dies. Though I’ll have to figure out how to approach the dowry, I don’t want Mar in debt or enslaved. XD
So much reading to do.
We can do ALL of the reading! I’ve learned so much since this morning, it’s not even funny. It’s just nice to actually get a feel for what I’m doing, idk. Nero hasn’t had a stable history since her creation, so it’s about time I actually give her some ground to stand on. Maybe her world is just our world with the addition of the paranormal and the supernatural.
At least that would explain her existence while still keeping with the history of the world. It’s easier to go on instead of making an entirely new headworld. Another dimension maybe.
Anyway, yeah, I might keep this idea. It depends on how much I care about changing her age midway through. It’s okay for Hetherev, because I don’t think she’s very sure about how old she is right now anyway, let alone where she came from. I think she’s only mentioned a few places where she’s settled down in the past, but nothing from her childhood has come up yet.
So, this could still work. Right? <:[ I don’t want to do this if it’s going to risk messing up all of the roleplays and storylines that I’ve already created. I’d love Alex’s input on this when he gets back, if he feels like talking. You and he are great for bouncing ideas off of when it comes to having older characters.
Nero’s appearance would probably change a bit, come to think of it. She won’t be looking that young for that long. <:I I planned on changing her looks a bit because of her return from the afterlife to begin with, so maybe it won’t cause that much of a hiccup…
I really don’t think it would cause much of a hiccup myself. XD Her age hasn’t even been referenced in challenges. You’re providing a way for her to look older via her ghost change, so I don’t see any harm. It doesn’t seem like a significant change. People will still recognize her, even if she’s got a few lines in her face.
It’ll be interesting to ping Gethin/Gale off her and vice versa if she is from ancient Crete. What time in history were you considering? Marmareon comes from around 300 BC (either right after, or just before the Christianity buzz). This is around the time of a lot of trade activity associated with Athens, the birth of democracy and the construction of the Parthenon. Give or take a century. I may be thinking of 450 BC or a marker in between.
*I meant to say that because with so much trade and Mar possibly being on a trading ship he may have been in Crete before.

EDIT 2: I’ve also remembered that her connection with ancient times is even apparent in her name. Emperor Nero was a crazy ass motherfucker who ruled Rome, and I always thought that was a catchy name when we were studying it in History. Why I gave it to a /female/ lycan I’m not sure, though I do…
I wish I knew something to tell you XD hahaha. I haven’t actually read about gender roles in ancient greece yet (and it might have differed from city state to city state, I’m not sure, but what women did in Athens could be very different from what women did in Crete).
I don’t think they were mistreated, I think it was more of a separation of men and women. Women did their chores with other women, and men did their daily routine with other men. WE CAN READ ABOUT IT TOGETHEEEER. This is why I want a book on daily life in ancient Greece, I want to learn about gender roles so I can develop more characters.

Anything helpful anyone wants put on there? Things about him that are hard to draw maybe? Anything really.
