the plot thickens

[fairywren]

Want to plot with Wren? You're in the right place.


Possibly of interest while plotting:

• Wren is moderately, cult-ishly famous as the frontman of a recently disbanded group called Enfants Sauvages (they're...sort of...goth electronic art noise nightmare pop, and no they don't know either). A majority of people probably don't know who they are, but it's entirely possible someone would recognize him or his name


• He's traveled quite a bit around the US and Europe.


• He speaks Acadian French (fluently), and German (exactly well enough to club-hop in Berlin without relying on English).


• Wren's maternal line is from Siren Cove way back. Are you a history buff or secretly ancient? Might have encountered the Sauvageons, many of whom were sirens.


• Wren is also a siren, but he's unaware of it as anything more than stage presence. As such, though, singing and particularly playing instruments both turn on the charm and come quite easily to him.


• He really enjoys flirting, almost as much as sex, which is second only to art/music on his list of can't-live-withouts. Wren's deeply dubious of monogamy or commitment in general, but that isn't at all a dismissal of his encounters, though they might not all agree.


• Wren collects rare instruments. Also, curiosities of all sorts: really, the weirder the better.


• He loves the creepy and uncomfortable, and things that don't belong to one thing or another.


• Social more and law aren't terribly important (except to question and bend).

Immediately noticable:

• That whole siren thing *waves hand*


• Wren is a tiny dude. He's all limbs, but he scrapes 5'7 in boots.


• He wears a lot of black, though usually with at least one bizarre accessory.


• He has a Pom mix named Inari who is tiny, cute, and a whole lot of trouble.

I absolutely LOVE all kinds of plotting, and friends and enemies alike are welcome, so don't hesitate to comment if you have an idea.

Hello! Wren sounds like a really cool, fascinating character! I'm excited to see him in game! I think my character Grace would definitely know his band; she's a dark and edgy~type herself. Welcome to the game! :D

[fairywren]

Hello! Thank you - I'm excited to get involved! And to give Wren something to do besides sitting in my brain telling me trivia about himself.

Sweet! Grace looks really interesting and I'd love to have them bump into eachother. I really like the possible awkwardness (but good conversation starter) around people occasionally knowing who Wren is. (He's used to it, but there's no way to make it less odd.) I'm pretty much open to anything, really.

Look Anna is a country girl and a siren but she may flail a little at him.

WELL A LOT. OKAY? :D

[fairywren]

Yes good :D Wren will probably just encourage the flail, let's be real.

You called for history buff? How about a history academic specializing in sirens >_> If you ever need Alex to stumble upon info he shouldn't, I'm always game! Love Wren, very interesting!

[fairywren]

That's EXCELLENT. I don't even know what juicy family history he might stumble across, but I love the idea. Anyway, Wren loves history and mythology (...scare quotes) so I suspect they'll get along.

[sirenstoryteller]

we can definitely talk about it and figure out something extra juicy! And Alex won't know what to make of Wren but I do think they will get along great! The academic son of a senator and a goth rock leading man? Clearly BFFs in the making lol

[fairywren]

Lol, Wren won't know what to do with Alex either, probably (your dad does WHAT REALLY so you're a historian right though you must have some perspective on governments and how ridiculous they all are) but I kind of like that, haha.

[sirenstoryteller]

And Alex will happily point out that he's more of a myth and legend historian XD He's trying to preserve siren history from around the world (or studying the siren/mermaid myth to the outside world). Politics is boring >_>

Wren sounds like a lot of fun! He had Genevieve can speak different version of French (she grew up in New Orleans) and wtf at how they can't understand each other. Also, she really likes having fun.

Wren should run into Clint though and they can hate each other because Clint is a crotchety old man.

[fairywren]

Yes! I like the dialectical French wtfery idea. And Wren is ALWAYS up for fun. In almost every sense.

ALSO YES TOTALLY. Ha. His police/military history even more than his crotchety old man status would probably rub Wren the wrong way (and vice versa). I can imagine them really enjoying antagonizing each other.
