▍ ❝ ONE.
hi, my name is august (they/them, 25+). i have a dumb job and a busy life– i might move slow or fast, i have no idea!! because if this, i’m highly selective with my writing & who i write with. if you want, we can be dis.cord friends if we are mutuals!▍ ❝ TWO.
i am a really anxious person so hopping into someone’s DMs and just trying to plot honestly doesn’t always work super great for me tbh. i’m great at using ask memes as starters and working from there to see how our muses / writing blend together. if you’re super plot based though, i get it! i just might suggest that you make the first move if you were the first to follow in terms of that though.
▍ ❝ THREE.
i don’t tolerate drama /hate. no homophobia, transphobia, racism, antisemitism, zionism. i don’t do callout culture unless someone is being truly harmful and violent to the community. i will tag all NSFW / triggers - if you need any specific tagged, please let me know!▍ ❝ FOUR.
i use small text and have been experimenting with colored text / dialogue. if this formatting does not work for you, PLEASE let me know and i will accommodate as best as i can for you! accessibility will always reign over style.==

• pets : lady lucille the mabari❝ + POSITIVE ATTRIBUTES : kind, hopeful enough to not lose herself to the weight of the world but also realistic enough to not lose herself in the clouds. she feels everything VERY deeply and is quick thinking, witty. a bit of a hopeless romantic, having read one too many novels in her youth about heros, knights, and princesses.❝ - NEGATIVE ATTRIBUTES : a bit naive, sensitive enough for her feelings to be hurt easily and often. can hold a grudge like nobody's business, even if she PRETENDS to forgive and forget. easily brought to tears and gets incredibly embarrassed by it when she's young. because of her want to see the best in people, it's rendered her to become easily taken advantage of.
❝ Once upon a time... in a mansion in kirkwall lived a bustling, loving family. theodora, first born to kristoff and revka amell, was sure that she would one day be a PRINCESS. she was spoiled absolutely rotten by parents who loved her so dearly and she was happy to receive such nurturing and love. the amell child received the finest education, wrote the fastest horses, had the most playful puppies. she was pure JOY. and their family grew. her sister eleanor was born second, when she was but three years old -- theodora didn't quite understand but was so HAPPY to have another person around... even if she wasn't entirely pleased with how she was no longer the only apple of her parents' eyes. cillian was born next, when she was five, and she was certain to help her mother through the pregnancy and was even upset that she couldn't be there when he was born. she already knew that one day, she wanted to marry a handsom prince or brave knight, as was decreed by her fairy tale books, and have a large family.she grew up incredibly sheltered. for someone with so much love inside of them that it was practically bursting at the seams, she was quite shy. theo was brave enough to talk incessantly at her siblings, nursemaids, parents, and tutors -- but making friends outside of her household was very hard. she preferred to bury her nose in her books, being a quick study and absolutely loving her stories of romance, courage, and the goodness of people. however, when she was eleven, her world would change dramatically.
she was walking back home from the chantry with her family before realizing that she had left her favorite book on the pew -- tears in her eyes, she begged her mother to let her go back to grab it. revka insisted on letting a servant do that sort of work, but theodora argued that her legs would be faster. she was right, obtaining her book and rushing back to meet her parents. as she cut through an alley, her luck turned. a few adults from one of the bandit groups she had heard only rumors about were lingering, some kids just a few years older than HER looking at her expectantly. they attempted to rob her, to take her valuables and reached for her book first. an altercation -- she screamed, kicked, tried to BITE when suddenly flames erupted throughout the alley. her own screams disappeared, replaced by those of the people who had attempted to hurt her. two of the men lay writhing in the street because of their burns. another man was dead.theodora fled back to her parents, but could not escape the attention of the TEMPLARS after the remaining bandits went to tell them of a loose, violent mage. she got as far as her front door before seeing the familiar shields and armor -- people that she had been taught all her life would protect her. she knew what would happen then. she clung to her mother's skirts, begging to stay. she said that she would be good, that she would NEVER hurt another living being again. the last thing she remembers is her mother falling to her knees in the streets as their hands were finally torn apart.


❝ Our story continues... theodora wished that she wasn't raised so kindly, sometimes. although she was furious and angry with the templars, and especially the institution that demanded she be shipped off to FERELDEN rather than stay in kirkwall, theodora was exactly who she thought she was: a princess. meek, polite, soft spoken. she said her please and thank you's to the templars and the mages in charge at first. but it didn't take long for her to realize that no amount of manners in the world would reunite her with her family. she grew despondent, depressed -- even quieter than what was normal. she didn't even read the books that she found in their library. it wasn't until she witnessed one of her elders healing a wound with just their hands that her interest piqued. to be a healer would provide a purpose. to be a healer would mean that she could be capable of GOOD.the amell child was inspired. she exceled at her studies, was at the top of her classes, favored by her teachers and even the templars who kept an eye on them. she was very good at baking -- she might even sneak them a biscuit or pastry if she made extra. however, when she was sixteen, she heard screams from below."where is she? where is my daughter?" a familiar voice, one that theodora hadn't heard in almost half a decade -- but she never forgot. the girl raced down the stairs to reach her mother but before she could reach the woman that she missed more than anyone -- maker, how many letters had she sent? she never received a single reply, but she wrote to her mother EVERY SINGLE DAY -- she was pulled back by a templar. she watched as her mother, agitated and scared and angry, was killed by a templar as she refused to listen to their instruction and tried to reach her. theo screamed. she didn't remember stopping.
the rest of her time in the circle felt like a dream. she nodded yes, shook her head no, said please, said thank you. she stopped writing letters (what would she say? did they ever receive one before?), had nightmares that left her waking screaming and in a cold sweat (her mother's voice. the blood that soaked the front of her dress. her mother looked so TIRED. how long had she been trying to find her?). she still thought someone might save her though. after all -- was she not a princess trapped in a tower? would not a handsome prince or courageous knight come after her? it didn't take her too long for her to realize that she was the knight in her own story.duncan asked her if she wanted to join the wardens -- theodora was horrified. to be moved from one prison to another? to give everything up for an organization that only seemed to care about her when a BLIGHT might be present? her have to possibly face combat, danger, despair? she begged no. PLEADED NO. the circle was her own personal hell -- it sucked the very life from her soul until she had nothing left to give... but there was still a possible hope. she faced her harrowing. she could be an enchanter in orlais or travel back to kirkwall in service of the city, try to find her FAMILY. anything was possible HERE. duncan conscripted her. just another choice that was taken away from her.
