PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Messy and curly black hair, gray skin, 4'11", lean. His horns are 7 inches tall and resemble antennae. He has big pointy teeth, with a bit of an overbite. He looks a lot younger than he is, due to being short and afab. He's got soft cheeks and small boobs that he binds anyways. He generally wears a blue sweater and gray jeans with patches sown over the holes.

PERSONALITY: Usually nice. Asshole to those who are assholes first. He'll talk to just about anyone but the chances of him being abrasive and sarcastic are high. He has trouble opening up about emotions but there's not much else he isn't willing to talk about. He really loves his friends, and his insects.

FANDOM: Homestuck

SEXUALITY: Bisexual, and polyamorus in blackrom

VOICE: Pitched up Bernie Sanders.

SETTING: Lives in a treehive in the forests of Alternia. The hive is very large and built around the branches of a very old tree, nearly 100 feet in the air.

BACK STORY: He realized he was NB at around 3.5 sweeps and chopped off his hair. He met a tealblood named Shedir when he was around 4 sweeps. They fell in love almost instantly and were very happy together. Around 8 sweeps, Muscae found Crater and helped him through a rough patch. A sweep later, an anti-rebellion purpleblood was sent to murder Shedir. Muscae fought the hunter, but it was too late to save Shedir. Devastated, he turned to Crater for help, and they ended up becoming moirails. Muscae went through kismesises constantly, but was afraid to ever have a red crush again.

ONGOING STORY: He is currently still moirails with Crater. He's trying to make more friends. It's not really going anywhere. He's talking more, at least.
