Where'd Pharragan's name come from?
Yup, he's capable of appearing in the human world in his regular form! He just prefers to blend in order not to catch the attention of others.
Hello and welcome!
This is a question game for those who don't like writing too much, don't want to analyse long bios, or just don't want to worry about breaking any rules regarding the length of their post.
I love learning all the tidbits that make up who a character is, no matter how 'unimportant' - the origin of a nickname, their favourite season, how they got their pet, why they like a certain game. Please read the rules before posting!
Format example:
Person 1's post: What are Ethereal's hobbies? Edit: Crowley likes thunderstorms the most!
Person 2's post: What is Crowley's favourite weather? Edit: Lucifer likes racing and platformer games most, especially Mario games.
Person 3's post: What videogames does Lucifer play?
You can post IC if you want the next person to question a specific character, or you can post OOC and let them pick for themselves.
-Rules-
1. Try to avoid asking questions that are already answered on the character's profile. That being said, don't get angry at someone if they do this - it's easy to miss things!
2. Detailed questions are still allowed! But you might not get a question of equal effort. That is the risk of the game.
3. Don't post characters who are marked 18+ or feature highly disturbing themes - let's try to keep it so everyone can enjoy the game.
4. Don't be rude, insulting, or passive-aggressive towards other people or their OCs in any way.
5. Wait for at least 3 people to post before you go again (unless over 12 hours have passed since the last post, then it's fair game for anyone).
6. Real questions only, please. This is not a place for memes or shitposts.
7. Don't skip people. Even if the above user has blocked you, that is not valid reason for skipping them.
If you break rules: Depending on the severity of the situation, I may either PM you with a warning or immediately ban you from the game. Regardless of severity, you can be banned if you repeatedly break rules.
Is he capable of appearing in the human world in his 'normal' form, or is he forced to assume his other form whenever he goes there?
I actually don't know yet how the Keeper got his magic. (I gotta think up backstory ideas for him.) All I do know is that his first few attempts at resurrecting animals didn't work out (the animals died anyway, despite his efforts). The first one he tried to resurrect was a red fox, but he didn't succeed. The first animal he successfully revived was a pigeon named Flicker. How did he react when he did this? He was probably ecstatic. XD
I guess that he gained his magical powers at some point in his life (maybe as a child), and spent several months/years learning how to use it properly. So he went through many, many failed attempts before successfully resurrecting something, and was probably starting to doubt that he really could.
What is his shadow magic like? Or in other words, what are the intricacies of it?
Well to put it shortly, "Mistress" is one of the only titles he's ever known to call grownups. He also refers to Jeffery as "Master". Diamond doesn't mind, since she grew up in this society and has accepted quite a lot of it.
What made him decide to start calling a perfect stranger Mistress? Has he had other people he's assigned titles like that to before? (also, how does Diamond feel about it?)

Maverick's necromancy actually is more of a hobby than anything lmao. I mean his work is doing magic for non-mages, but that mostly just means fixing failing enchantments on peoples' water heaters or whatever. Nobody really has a use for necromancy(well nobody who's not wanting something sketchy done). He tries out different practical skills(raising livestock, sewing, etc) to see if he's any good at them. He likes to do things that are useful(aside from the necromancy, he's just too good at it to NOT do it).
Other than that...he likes naps? He reads, but honestly that's mostly for the sake of Marta's book club. He really keeps himself busy,,
Does Maverick have any hobbies he particularly enjoys? If not, how does he spend his free time?

Mostly because of her natural affinity to the undead because of her mark.
Is there a specific reason as to why Lia’s a Necromancer?
She was an orphan at first, actually! When war broke out, the military lacked manpower, so they took the orphans and raised them as soldiers.
What caused her to become a sniper in the first place?
Nope, he wasn't born with any magic. He acquired his power later in life (maybe in childhood, I'm not sure). I don't know the full circumstances behind it yet, as I'm still working on his backstory, but my current theory is that his childhood pet was killed and he desperately wanted to bring them back to life - so much that he was granted resurrection powers by some kind of magical being (or maybe found a way to gain the power by himself). It's all pretty loose and disjointed right now, but I'll probably have more of his backstory up soon.
What are some of the medical problems Bunny has to face?
They've all been pretty no-strings-attached, that being said, her first human relationship hurt her badly, and she's pretty close with Rebecca that she would be pretty tentative to let go of.
Her profile says she’s been on many flings, asit were...Which washardest to let go of?
Astrid can speak English, but is more comfortable in her native language. She usually gives commands in Hexlan, for example.
Can she only speak in Hexlan, or has she learned other languages too?
Haha, thanks! :D
Where's his brother at right now? Still around? Are they still close?
(I realised that I never mentioned his brother's name anywhere, so I'll say it here now for ease of answering; it's Griffin.)
I haven't fully thought it out yet, but I think his brother is currently working somewhere in the same city that Pyre and his band perform in. The city is pretty tolerant towards vampires, so it's one of the safest places for him to be. He's probably working at a bar/nightclub or something like that (there's a lot of them around) - I can imagine Pyre occasionally performing there and running into him.
They are close, but less so than when they were younger. They used to depend on each other a lot, particularly Griffin depending on Pyre for moral support after he was turned into a vampire. Nowadays, they're both adults and while they're still close, they have different lives now, so they don't see each other so often. When they do, though, they always take the time to catch up on whatever's been going on.
Does Pyre like being a vampire? Any regrets about it?
He does! He's never really felt any reason to be resentful of it. For most people, the biggest fear is outliving everyone they care about, but he tries not to think about that. (Most of his friends are long-lived species anyway, so it's not as big a concern for him. He'll get to spend more time with them.) He's actually pretty happy about being a vampire most of the time, mostly because of the powers/invulnerability against diseases/ability to look young forever.
Pyre is so cute!! What a friendly darling, he seems like so much fun! <3 Where's his brother at right now? Still around? Are they still close? And follow up, does Pyre like being a vampire? Any regrets about it?

Oh, jesus, that's a good question. I kind of phased any kind of job he may have had out of existence huh. The whole not-having-money thing is gonna come and bite him in the ass sooner rather than later, but I really can't see him being, like, employed. not only is he just, horrifying, he's not interested in doing menial tasks or participating in, like, society. It's logical enough to say that he'd take jobs killing for money, but man, sometimes that's just too much work, and Jae doesn't exactly have a reputation for being subtle or reliable. he probably just robs people, so much, all the time. no class.
As for hobbies, he probably spends a lot of time outside, just kind of looking for things that he hasn't seen before. it's weird being an adult but experiencing things like nature for the first time properly. he spends more time in cities window shopping than he'd care to admit ("society is overrated but you know its normal to see a cute shirt and want it so get off my case") and really loves trying new foods.
So, what does he do for a living? And does he have any hobbies that don't involve bloody carnage?

Herutaz is pretty well acquainted with almost the entire Fae population of his forest - Dahlia here is actually on TH; I simply haven't drawn the rest of them yet. Many of them are related to death and decay in one way or another, with at least two of them having animal skulls for heads, but there are also some plant fae and a few entirely more playful ones.
Herutaz is odd by both human and fae standards - on the fae side of things, his mild obsession with humanity and his enthusiasm for those strange mortals is quite unusual. On the human side of things, well, you've got this tall scary dude claiming to be the lord of the forest, first of all, not to mention the having-antlers-and-dripping-goo situation. Then there's the aforementioned enthusiasm for human culture - nobody really expects gleefully curious questions about like... fast food or how traffic lights work from somebody who at least looks like an adult. Also, his priorities are off by human standards. Car broke down on the highway and they're all stuck? "Oh how marvelous, an authentic human experience! Exciting!". Casual barbecue in the backyard? Hour-long lecture on fire safety by a dead-serious scary fae king.
Basically, Herutaz is the fae equivalent of a really obnoxious weaboo.
