STAR★WOLF★STRIFE
Really - he'd just wanted to be a hero for his home town. Instead, he's part of why it burnt down (or, he blames himself for it, anyways).Cloud Strife, late twenties, owner/operator of Strife Delivery Service. A little bit distant, a whole lot depressed, but trying his damnedest to do a bit better than he had before compared to now. If you aren't here to be helpful, best you stay out of the way.
» INFO «
.: Basics :.
» Will gladly consider any period of the FF7 compliation timeline, or thereafter, for serious threads! Not-so-serious threads are open for anyone (as long as you don't mind getting past Cloud's outer shell of course).
» Not exactly interested in parent/kid relationships due to how Cloud percieves himself but still totally okay with kid muses in general.
» I will not be setting Cloud up for any cross-dressing. I know it's cannon that he did it, but he was definitely uncomfortable with it, and so is this iteration of him.
» Both long-form and short-form is welcome! I love detail but I also adore short banter. If you like really long-form, then I'm available on discord.
» Muns that are under 18 please do not interact - there may be adult content and as an adult it's kind of my duty to help keep you safe on the internet. Ily. Come back when you're legal okay?
.: In-Depth Info :.
» While I stated above that I'll consider any period in the compilation timeline, this muse is mostly post advent-children/DoC in terms of static placement as a character.
» In terms of portrayal, please remember that Cloud does actually suffer PTSD, anxiety, and severe depression. You'll likely only see his softer side if we're doing something with younger!Cloud or if you're on good terms with him (or, you know, small children...he's awkward with kids but tries to be more gentle around them).
» In terms of appearance, and the timing of where I have him placed in the timeline, regardless of the effects of being healed, many of his past scars still remain. The cuts on his face and arms from his last fight with Sephiroth are still prevalent, and there's still a scar on his eyebrow from his goggles being shot off at the start of AC. He's touchy about these marks, especially the ones left from being impaled by Sephiroth and being shot by Yazoo - please handle with care.
» As far as behavior goes, he's mostly the same loveable kind-of-an-asshole-but-will-still-make-sure-you-stay-in-one-piece guy. Quiet and reserved unless he's around someone he knows he can trust. Generally averse to touch, especially from people he doesn't know. However, if he trust someone enough to be any form of intimate with them, he can range from being okay with holding hands all the way to being oddly clingy (friendly reminder that he's rather touch-starved).
» PREFERENCES «
» SHIPPING «
» We're a little picky in this house - Zack is the favorite for shipping, but anyone else that's canon FF7/remake and is 18+ is also fair game (and I am not kidding, this even includes Reno). However, this does exclude non-humanoid characters (sorry Nanaki, we can still be friends tho!).
» Non-FF7 canon ships will probably not be considered unless the mun has a dumb soft spot for them or there's semi-canon interaction (yes, we're counting Kingdom Hearts here kind of, so Squall is on the shouldn't-consider-but-definitely-will-because-mun-ships-the-hell-out-of-that list....so is Roxas so long as he's 18+ don't judge me).
» SEXUALITY / IDENTITY «
» Heavily demisexual, with slight lean towards more masculine people, however does not actually care too much about gender in terms of the other party. Panromanticism applies as he doesn't fully care about gender.
» Will be portrayed as cis-male, with zero interest in cross-dressing (of his own). For other muses, it doesn't really matter to him. He sees personality first, looks are a bonus, and if someone else chooses to cross-dress then that's alright by him.
