Can We Add You: Yep!
Extra: I love the group dynamics of RP, and how relationship webs start to form. Most of my characters are complete messes, and they're rarely the kind of character that everyone will get along with so I really love complicated dynamics and clashing ideals. In horror specifically, I love the dynamic character development that it tends to cause, either for the worse or for the better (usually the worse.) Something I love about the Magnus Archives is that there's just no ethical right answer to the fundamental question posed of whether it's better to be a victim of an elaborate system of suffering, to become a part of it to avoid that and to maybe try to use that power for good, or to just defy it all no matter the destructive toll it raises. These are the sort of things I really want to explore with Aelwyn.

Age: 19 (as of a couple months ago)
Housing: Apartment B3
Entity Affiliation(s): The Desolation.
Permissions: HERE
Information: Aelwyn Abernant is a high elven wizard girl who has something of a superiority complex and it shows. She's very intelligent and comes off as quite ambitious and unflappable. In canon, she is described as having "an inpenetrable and terrifying confidence." This is a smokescreen, and she is in fact a deeply insecure coward who came from an emotionally abusive household and a rigid private school and both of those taught her that being loved is a reward that is only earned by doing everything in your power to win it.
Here, she's largely dedicated herself to research and investigations. She's uninterested in doing a lot of the ADI's dirty work and definitely has some attitude problems and difficulty with living in a non DND campaign world, but she's been extremely efficient in her researching position and is something of a workaholic. So far she's been pretty unaffected by this month's event, though she particularly hated those lights that threatened to spill her worst secrets.
ADI Thoughts: Oh yeah, she thinks they're suspicious as hell. She hasn't decided if it's worth defying them over, but she has decided that she wants to save this world and destroy the entities if possible, for the sake of her ego more than anything else.
She wants to root out their secrets and decide for herself, but she's willing to work with other people to either aid or circumvent them depending on the situation. Some things that she suspects they could be personally responsible for are the following:
-Pointing Ren in Tim's direction to interrupt his plan.
-The disappearances.
-Pulling strings so people from other worlds are caught between leaning on their powers and ascending to become avatars or dying.
-Bringing most of the threats to Gloucester.
She'd be very interested in joining a conspiracy group to unveil their secrets.
CR Wanted: Pretty much all kinds but in particular I want:
-People who can relate to or accept her more horrible traits and conspire with her to commit morally dubious acts to protect the friends she's made.
-Found family particularly in the form of responsible adults hitting her on the head with a newspaper or characters she starts to see as little siblings. (ESPECIALLY little sisters. She has so many sister issues.)
-Allies who are In Cahoots, whether they personally like her or not.
-Friends!! Ones who will try to encourage her to improve as a person or people who will encourage her worst impulses and she will do so in return. Also here for begrudging friends who will sell her out for one cornchip but if she killed a guy would help her bury the body.
-Rivals!!!!!! Either healthy competition, mutual bitter resentment and genuine hatred, or people who just hate her pragmatic and spiteful way of looking at the world and will actively work against her. I'm here for just about any kinds of negative CR.
CR Not Wanted: Uhhhhhhhhh... nothing really.
Extra: She is going to lean more and more toward fully embracing her powers, and the more people try to convince her she's wrong, the more she'll try to convince herself that she's right and also too smart to be wrong.
