IC UPDATES
-

> A man of middling age with spiky 'sugar and cinnamon' streaked hair and a temple wrap around of silver, deep blue eyes conveying compassion and a fatherly kindness written in the tired lines of his face. A more simian, bowlegged gait suggested curious nature that even illusion cast by ring could not hide, slouched posture contrasting with warrior physique and seemingly more natural than indicative of personality. A closer inspection would reveal a copious amount of freckles and abundant body hair spread across a pale, ruddy complexion and a smile with pronounced canines behind what was now a full beard. While typically poor in cloth, he was rich in heart and moral fiber. A faded accent of an era passed hides in the low and steady grumble of his voice.
- Justice (aka trouble).
  A natural 'do-gooder' and an overtly suspicious one to boot, Maxie has a bad habit of sticking his nose into the business of others. It doesn't matter if you're of magical, supernatural, or other persuasion - if you're a potential danger to others he'll keep an eye on you.
- Adventure.
  An inquisitive explorer who enjoys the outdoors, this is a good person to take with you as a member of a questing party or similar expedition - particularly if it involves hunting evil!
- Work.
  Max has returned to being an active monster slayer for hire. While he is selective in what kind of jobs he'll accept, generally speaking he's open to taking care of problematic beasts (as well as problematic people). Is particularly apt at collecting specific reagents, performing rescues, retrieving stolen goods, and locating the lairs of both monsters and men. While it is a difficult chore that'll prove costly for a client, he's also willing to bring back captured beasts alive!

- "Wow, such a well developed and charming character! Happy to have stumbled upon his page. And such lovely art as well!"
  -- garden
- "Maxie (and his meticulous player) has drawn out both the worst - and a surprising best - from a character of mine that isn't known for such true extremes, and it's made for some of the meatiest and most rewarding RP I've had in a long time.
  
  And no wonder - for Maxie is a well conceived and written person with a full, thoroughly researched and developed past - and this richness is evident in everything he does. It's been just as fun to read about his adventures as it has been to play with him!"
  -- Rigby
- "Excellent character! I thoroughly enjoyed reading his site "
  -- ~~Yuka~~
- "Maxie is an incredibly complex character with a rich personal history that plays a role in his every day decisions. He's got just the right amount of conflict in his life that every thing new he experiences develops him all the more into the incredible character that he is.
  
  He's well made, well played and the player has put so much effort into him both behind the scenes and up front. Definitely a 'must RP with' character.'"

Notes Of Importance

Keep OOC and IC Separate
IC Actions = IC Consequences

I expect everyone to use character knowledge wisely.

I do not have the best health and often struggle to focus.
I'm a narrative motivated, but low energy player.
I'm also a bit anxious and introverted.
( aka if you want to RP, don't be afraid to give me a poke! I need motivation! )
I'm an overthinker and can be a pretty slow poster.
( I'm sorry, please forgive my rougher days! )
I view RP as collaborative writing before a form of gaming.

*No Consent
with exceptions to sexual content, severe injury, enslavement, and death

*Mature Themes
strong language, excessive violence, descriptive horror, suggestive content, substance use (heavy smoker), potential nudity, darker subject matter (including, but not limited to cannibalism)

*FtB
I'm not interested in writing out sexually explicit content at this point in time.

*Severe Injury and Death
While we value our characters and don't want to see them killed off or mangled, this is still subject to IC Actions leading to IC Consequences. Maxie will behave accordingly in trying to protect others, even if that gets him into hot water. If you roleplay a character who actively harms others, roleplaying with Maxie is accepting the potential of them becoming his enemy. That being said, I will do my very best to make sure things going bad work out as well as possible between a believable story and player contentment. I'd like to think a thoughtful person would afford me the same!

*Enslavement
While something most certainly could happen that ends up with Maxie in chains, I'd be disinterested unless it developed organically through compelling and honest plot.

*Conflating IC and OOC
I'd like to remind players that this character is deeply abolitionist and any free person who willfully spends their time at an indulgent chattel establishment such as The Golden Tether is considered evil by default. I ask you please respect the consequences of your character's actions. Whatever negative reactions they experience are not intended to be attacks on the player, but moral judgments from the character.

*Faceclaims and Canon
Sorry! I'm not comfortable playing with borrowed races or faces outside of guestbook replies. I prefer my roleplay to consist of all original content when in all original settings. I'd really rather not engage with characters that rely on the direct appearances and images of real-life individuals (or already existing characters).

  Your wife is hot.
  
  I'd do her. Probably better than you.

  ...um.
  
  UM.
  
  Jenna did it,
  Even the butterflies. That was all her. Spontaneous generation, she was totally looking in dad's stuff he uses for the lambs. And totally collected samples of those barnacle geese off the ship the other day and forgot to wash the bottle.
  
  Totally Jenna. Yep.

  "Maxie!
  
  If you hadn't gathered, I assisted young Enfield on his letter. He's not terribly good at spelling yet but I'm sure it'll come to him once he's back with you. I've been mourning what may or may not have been your possible death or permanent absence, my friend.
  
  It brings me great joy to hear from you. Sullivan will tell you, I popped out a bottle of wine and celebrated immediately so forgive me if I'm a tad tipsy as I write. As for your fighting getting you into this situation. HONESTLY Maxie, leave that man alone, you old dog! Look where its gotten you. Then again, you seem to be doing well for yourself! A woman AND a good job! Enfield is going to be thrilled when he finds out his father is a headmaster, I'm sure.
  
  Sullivan and I have been doing well as ever, he takes good care of me and keeps me in good, fashionable shape. We really do miss you, and it's going to be very hard to see Enfield go after all this time taking care of him. Perhaps we can find our ways there in due time, once he is settled in. It's nice here, but without you and Enfield it is just another city.
  
  Make sure Evren lets us keep this box so that we can stay in contact. I want to hear all about what you're doing and how Enfield is getting on. I really hope you are all certain that this is safe for Enfield, he's only small.
  
  Be good, and don't do anything I wouldn't do! And keep in contact,
  
  Rufio
  
  p.s. Sullivan sends you his regards! Please find enclosed some quills.
  
  (Inside are two decently sized golden and red feathers and one dark greeny teal one)"

  "(The letter that returns from Enfield seems entirely as if Rufio had written it for him, but very true to Enfield's own words. Enfield certainly wasn't as good at spelling and handwriting as was expressed in the letter, unless a miracle had happened since Maxie had been gone....that and it distinctly looked like Rufio's handwriting)
  
  "Dad,
  
  I thought you were never coming back! I was so sad waiting for you and I thought you were dead! No one could say you weren't dead and i thought it meant there was a big BIG chance you were dead. I looked for you everywhere every day but you didn't come back. I was worried maybe even WORSE than dead. Thought that maybe you did not want me anymore because I was naughty.
  
  I can't wait to see you again Dad, I've got so many stories to tell you about adventures i've been on with Rufio and Sullivan! Rufio taught me how to breath fire too! properly, not the little smokey puff I could do before, much better! I'll kiss all the chickens goodbye before I come home, I promise.
  
  I Love love love love you,
  
  See you soon, Dad! Please get me soon!""
