BIOGRAPHY
Description
VISAGE.
‣ A gentle expression often curled into a smile or open with quiet happiness. Chubby cheeks and a warm face; kindness personified.
HAIR.
‣ Bouncy curled hair often pulled into fun buns or a tight braid to avoid interference in battle.
EYES.
‣ Right. Bright, iridescent blue. The colour of the sea, the colour of the sky. Full of storms and clouds ——— an ever-stretching expanse of conviction and strength.
‣ Left. Milky white and fully blind. A long, jagged scar running down from her time on the Broken Howl.
BUILD.
‣ Thick thighs and a barrel chest with strong arms to match. Muscular and curvy packed tightly into this little powerhouse of a gnome from lugging around heavy plate armour day in and day out.
SKIN.
‣ Freckled brown skin dappled by sunlit divine kisses from her goddess. Rough and calloused palms from training, healing and battle. A long, ugly scar splitting her midsection in half that she will never heal.
VOCALS.
‣ A soft, comforting voice. Ever earnest and encouraging that rings of meekness and a storm in the distance.
Personality
OVERVIEW.
‣ She escapes definition and understanding. She is a paragon of goodness and hope to many, but she feels more at east with the rogues and misfits. She is a contradiction of the world. The power to heal hand-in-hand with the power to destroy. She's a testament to expectations, standing against it with a mace ready to disrupt. She is no redeemer. She is no goddess. She is simply Pike. A warrior and healer in one; someone capable of tenderness and anger in equal parts. She is more than one thing: to break her down to a single trait is to lose the magnitude of her character for the sake of simplicity and comfort. She is, at her core, kind and genuine. Riddled with flaws that she struggles to embrace, but tries all the same. She is a pillar of support and a pillar all on her own. She is this quiet strength that cannot be gained or given, only earned.
MORAL ALIGNMENT: Chaotic Good
METHOD OF PERSUASION: Pathos
TEMPERAMENT: Sanguine
MBTI: ISFJ, the protector
‣ SI. dominant introverted sensing
A powerful memory that is not patterned by notes or organized archives, but rather through feelings. Through the emotions that thread through every remembrance, acting as the spine to her memories. She compares all incoming information to the past, oft preferring the tried and true methods before as they have proven the most reliable.
‣ FE. auxiliary extroverted feeling
A conduit of harmony. She often adapts to the emotions and values of the people around her, in tune with the temperaments and mentalities. Much more concerned with the feelings of others than her own. Manifests as an urge to apply her understanding of a situation to please and satisfy the needs of others.
‣ TI. tertiary introverted thinking
A logical and systematic thought process, organizing information in a neat fashion where everything slots together like puzzle pieces rather than pages in a book. Keen on wanting to know why and how things operate in the manner that they do. Sometimes questions the logic of others, always wanting to know for sure in order to put their mind at ease.
‣ NE. inferior extroverted intuition
A natural improvisor; a dynamic mind capable of coming up with new ideas and while she holds a preference for what has worked in the past, she is not afraid of trying something new. Loves to explore possibilities and entertain the unknown. Able to read in between the lines, gleam subtext and connect anything to everything.
POSITIVE TRAITS.
+ She is love is love is love is love. She is rarely idle in her affections, always there with a smile and a hand out-stretched to towering giants and those who look upon her with a sneer. She has the inexplicable ability to connect with people on an intimate level and break down walls with a simple hi.
+ Supportive. She is one who is always there for her friends, standing at their side to protect, to heal and to fight. In her people see redemption, but truly it's just her desire to help that shines through.
+ Pike Trickfoot is shaped like a friend. She is reliable and earnest. The foundation upon which greatness can rest. With her, there is certainty. She will ensure that things will be done to the highest of standards, often going beyond expecations.
+ Loyalty. She is a friend for life. She will die for her family. Fully willing to shoulder their burdens and and stand at their sides with a mace in hand. Her spirit travels across distances for them, even across realms. If she can be there, she will.
+ Her humour is a unique characteristic. She can be witty and cunning, playful and smart. She loves to make her friends laugh and sometimes she can fumble, but she's genuine and true.
NEGATIVE TRAITS.
- It's easy to forget about herself when she's so concerned about others. She glosses over her own accomplishments and injuries, wanting to give, not take for herself.
- Prone to overloading herself. Her altruistic nature combined with her sense of duty often has her staying behind to follow her goddesses' will though there's this undercurrent that wants her to push back.
- A surprisingly private person. There is a lot that Pike simply never speaks of. Her family, her burdens, her hidden struggles and doubts. If it's not important, she won't speak of it.
- Anger. There is anger in her bones. She is not brutal or cruel, but she's neither soft nor malleable. There are times when her anger seethes like a cold star, fist tightening around her mace. She is forgiving, but her forgiveness is not limitless sea.
- She clings. She does not want to be abandoned. She hates people who turn their backs on their family because her childhood had been defined by people walking away.

DISCORD: Available upon request. Mutuals only
Hello! My name is Coslyn. I'm your local Filipino writer with an avid love the of "u" in neighbour. I'm usually busy with someone or another and I don't understand how social media works at all. Thank-you for taking the time to look through these. I hope you have a lovely day, friend!
General
DISCLAIMER.
‣ Pike Trickfoot is primarily based around her webshow incarnation as played by Ashley Johnson, but takes influence from the Legends of Vox Machina comics and my own personal interpretation. A lot of liberties have been taken (sorry Ashley!).
TRIGGERS.
‣ All triggers will be tagged in the following format: trigger /
I ask that all images of BLOOD be tagged. If you have a specific trigger you would like me to tag or I have been remiss in my tagging, please inform me and I shall rectify it immediately.
NSFW.
‣ Though there may be materials that are not safe for work, there will be absolutely NO SMUT present on this blog at all. It's just not something I'm comfortable with.
CREDITS.
‣ Appropriate credits will be in the credits page.
Conduct
PRIVATE BLOG.
‣ I will write with mutuals only. Mutuals mean I follow you and you follow me.
SELECTIVE.
‣ I reserve the right to pick and choose my writing partners. I love duplicates with all my heart. I may have mains, but I rarely have exclusives. If I follow you, that means I'm interested in writing with you!
ETIQUETTE.
‣ Basic roleplay etiquette goes as follows: don’t godmod, don’t metagame—but honestly those depend on the situation. Sometimes it's needed to start threads. Just don’t be an asshole. We’re all people, we all make mistakes. I’m a pretty lenient person, all things considered and I know that things get lost in translation and pixelated text doesn’t carry tone all that well. Constructive criticism is extremely welcome, but outright hate will not be tolerated. Just be kind, yo.
THREADS.
‣ I am up for any length of thread (script, mini-para, para, novella etc.) but my preference tends to lean towards small to large paras. Try as I might, everything I touch turns into an essay. I will always try to match my partner’s length and I expect the same courtesy in return.
STYLIZATION.
‣ As for writing, I stylize my text a little bit. If it in any way makes it harder to read for you, especially since I use small text, please inform me and I will do everything in my power to make things legible for you <3
ASKS.
‣ I answer asks in separate posts. Feel free to continue them!
SHIPPING.
‣ Shipping is not the main focus of the blog. Any ships that develop will be based on chemistry and development.
