•THREAD-JACKING: It's fine by me if it's IC!
•FOURTH WALLING / CANON PUNCTURE: I prefer not to be fourth walled.
•BACKTAGGING: Absolutely okay!
•AVOIDED TOPICS: I'm chill with anything.
•PREFERRED GENDER PRONOUN: He/him please!
IC CHARACTERISTICS:
•CURRENT CANON POINT: Post Chapter 1 Act 3 and also after completing his character story Historia Antiqua Act I.
•PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Zhongli is a 190cm tall man of seemingly Chinese ethnicity. He is usually dressed in his black/brown coat, though he may also wear hanfu on more casual occasions. There's a diamond-shaped orange trinket on his back that glows. He has clean, elegant features, though it is difficult to place his age. His two-toned hair and orange eyeliner distinguish him from most other people. His eyes have a concentric ring pattern inside them. His resting expression is a calm, neutral one. It's not hostile, but it's also hard to tell what he's feeling.
•DEMEANOR: He usually speaks in a calm and soothing tone. It's hard to get him agitated or make him raise his voice. He has good posture without any signs of fidgeting. Observant people would notice that his movements are perhaps a little too perfect, a little inhuman. Zhongli is quite patient, and also observant of his surroundings. He'll look around a room once when entering, and give new people a similar assessing look when he first meets them. In conversation, he keeps perfect eye contact, which may unnerve people unused to this. Due to his vibrational sensing abilities, he can detect people behind him, so he apparently doesn't guard his own back in dangerous situations.
•ABILITIES: Tl;dr: Earthbending, shield creation, slight healing, vibrational sensing, encyclopaedic knowledge. A longer version can be found here.
•MEDICAL INFORMATION: He's an elemental being aspected to Earth, so his internal structure is more crystalline and won't have normal human organs. Or maybe the scans just won't show anything except a uniform density. He's kind of a godly rock, after all.
•CABIN INFORMATION: The door looks like this (except only one half of it). His cabin follows a similar simple but elegant design, but with modern touches. He keeps it clean and tidy at all times.
•OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS: He's able to discuss almost anything. However, he's quite justice-minded, and would not stand for any form of bullying/harrassment/cheating/etc.
IC PERMISSIONS:
•MENTAL: Telepathy, empathy, dream manipulation is fine, but check in with me for clairvoyance. I would prefer to have no mind-control.
•MIMICRY: Please ask me first as this will be handled on a case-by-case basis.
•VIOLENCE: Yes, if we plot it out.
•MAGIC: Yes, if we plot it out.
•DEBATE: Yes, of course!
•OTHER / NOTES: I am not interested in extended, violent negative CR. I don't write or visualize very well with those. I understand negative CR is part and parcel of RP, but I prefer respectful relations instead of being sought out by another character for constant fights, for example. I am also not interested in romantic shipping with this character.
