OVERVIEW
Bronwyn is a Lunari, which is a species of moth-like extraterrestrials originally hailing from the planet of Lunarus, though the destruction of their planet by hostile invaders has left them refugees on Earth for many centuries. Lunari live to be about 1000 years old, which puts Bronwyn at the equivalent of 36-37 years of age for their species. Lunari have sub-species which correlate with the mundane moth species of Earth and determine certain elements of their identity and physicality such as special abilities, natural inclinations and talents, and physical characteristics. These sub-species are oddly not genetic. Indeed, they are generally determined by astrology. Lunari are inherently magical beings and draw their power from the moon and other celestial bodies, so astrology has a significant bearing on their day to day life.
Bronwyn's species is that of the White Witch, a species which is gifted with an inherent psychic ability and knack for magic, which makes them a valued community figure and has earned them a place as the advisor to their colony's queen. The White Witch species is also quite rare, as many of Bronwyn's peers were killed as a tactical move by the invaders which destroyed their planet and only a small number of White Witch Lunari have been born since this time. This has put a fairly high amount of responsibility on Bronwyn's shoulders and significantly shaped their personality.
Bronwyn lives in the Northern Colony of Arianrhod, located in a section of National Park in Niagara Falls, New York that has been carefully concealed with magic. They offer their services as a psychic and mage to the colony's queen as well as to its citizenry. See more details about Bronwyn's abilities below, or seek their services yourself at Bronwyn's Booth of Truth.

BIOLOGY
White Witch Lunari are the tallest Lunari sub-species (though not the largest in terms of body mass--- that title belongs to Atlas Lunari). As such, Bronwyn clocks in at a whopping nine feet and two inches. They are also quite slender. Their body fur is ivory in color and their antennae, hair, and ruff (the collar of fur around their neck) are all white. They have large scalloped wings with tawny brown marbling on the back and eye spots on the front. Like all Lunari, they have insectoid digitigrade legs and three fingers on each hand. Their mouth has a labrum plate in the center which forms the tooth-like structure on the outside of their face. This protects their small teeth and thin, coiling, butterfly-like tongue. Their entire body is covered with short, velvet-like fur and their wings have stiff scales. Bronwyn's very large eyes are dark purple in color. Their compound structure, while not as complex as that of a true insect, allows them a very broad range of vision.
While not something Bronwyn is prone to talking about, it is worth noting that all Lunari are completely unisex and can play either role in the act of reproduction, although Lunari are not particularly fertile as a consequence of their very long lives. Because of their lack of sexual dimorphism, gender for all Lunari is a choice for self-expression and is otherwise completely arbitrary. If it becomes relevant, details on Bronwyn's more intimate anatomy can be provided privately!

ABILITIES
Clairsentience
Bronwyn is clairsentient, meaning that they can sense other people's emotions autonomously. (Also sometimes called an "empath"). While the clarity in which these emotions come across varies, they do this without trying and can rarely shut it out. Please feel free to describe your character's emotions as generously as you'd like them to be able to detect.

Telepathy
Bronwyn can also hear thoughts, but not all of them. They usually must do this on purpose and can only hear what the person is presently thinking. If Bronwyn is going to probe your character in this way, I will ask for your explicit consent, and you have full control over what and how much they can hear. Bronwyn can also hear people who "think loudly" autonomously. If you would like them to be privy to a certain thought, you may include it in your tag as a "loud thought" if you want to! Additionally, they can send mental messages to others.

Clairvoyance
Bronwyn also has mild clairvoyance. Occasionally they receive visions about things that are about to happen. Usually they can do this on purpose and to a more extensive degree, but their abilities are more limited in RP games. If you would like them to know about your character's future, you can visit their Box o' Visions or ask them for a Scrying Session. They will only be able to discern what you, the player, tell me.

Date: 2023-12-31 02:07 pm (UTC)In the same vein, people who are very private tend to make Bron incredibly nervous as they are utterly mortified of upsetting someone or violating boundaries, so they might be less open about their abilities with him and will seem skittish or sometimes even outright fearful around him. This could be fun to play with if you like, or work as an easy opt-out for Sam who can be like "yeah the big moth is weirdly terrified of me, I don't know why"

Date: 2023-12-31 03:51 pm (UTC)As far as being afraid of Sam is concerned, he would be extremely alarmed by that bc nobody is actually afraid of him, so he wouldn't know what to do with that. I think it would open up some opportunities for Sam to say something to someone else like "that moth is terrified of me and all I did was make a face..." Bc he doesn't want to go into detail as to why he thinks they're nervous unless it's when he's talking to Chris. I feel like he'll probably think it's because they gleaned that he's got the extinction factor (y'know, the thing that turns him into a nuclear bomb upon contact with a ghost) which admittedly IS pretty alarming!
