I'LL KEEP ALL MY EMOTIONS IN HERE— and then, one day, I'll die.
SIOBHAN O'CUINN. GLEANER. "I grieved, but a part of me felt a lightening of a burden that I had carried all my life: that I could never be worthy of her, that I would always disappoint or fail her. Now, I had failed her. At least I could not do so again."

III.
a newly minted gleaner (as of three years), siobhan wanders the star in search of music to transcribe or purchase and bring back to sharlayan, that they might preserve history and culture in song. previously, she spent the decade beforehand serving the city state as an elected forum member with a focus on advocacy of the arts, and the past eight decades or so studying, composing, and performing music for thousands of sharlayan events.since the death of her elezen mother some fifteen years past, sharlayan acquaintances and friends might note how she has emerged from her stilted, tense shell. it's a slow process — grief always is — but hope is the flower that blooms in the snow, and siobhan an incoming meadow.
SYRIN — SHE/HER — 21+ ooc information
I.
hey! i'm syrin. i'm generally not very active, but i do love to interact and rp!i'm a big fan of slice of life, and enjoy the little things! i don't consider slice of life to be without movement, though, and i think sometimes what i consider to be slice of life is actually also considered angst, so — i like. varied things, i guess!i don't enjoy writing super deep or mature stuff right off the bat unless we have written before, and i struggle heavily with scenes that involve more than three people, total.
II.
here are the usuals:communication if at any point you would like to stop rping or would like to change something or are uncomfortable with something, just let me know! i'm super flexible and appreciate being told. i think ooc communication is super important.quotations i put all of siobhan's speech in quotations. if it's not in quotations, she didn't say it. my writing is often a little facetious and fourth-wall breaking; that doesn't mean she is.fluidity i am open to retcon and reworks. i don't consider any interaction to be set in stone.shipping i am not particularly interested in it. if chemistry happens: great! but it's unlikely.comments about siobhan please don't make ooc sexual comments about her unless we're closer friends. she's my main and it feels a little weird. in character comments are perfectly fine. other comments are, as well; i specifically write her to be a little odd, and appreciate when other characters notice that.please avoid explicit narration of: incest, sexual relationships with lalas, animal or elder abuse.

NEWLY MINTED GLEANER
current global
information seeking
siobhan is on the hunt for anyone who plays or sings or hums or does anything related to music ever!most crucially, she is looking for any styles that sharlayan historically may not have considered worthy of study - cultural music and folk music and the lullabies mothers hum to their children, broken melodies of shanties passed orally... just anything that may not have been written down before.musical culture of the azim steppe, coerthan secular styles, and thavnairian and turali techniques are of high interest to her.
AVID READER
current global
author fanclub
siobhan likes to read fiction of all types; if your character is an author, maybe she is familiar with their pen name? she's not as familiar with nonfiction, but she does dabble from time to time.
LOCALLY FAMOUS MUSICIAN
history sharlayan
local cryptid vibes
there's a good chance she has been performing music in sharlayan longer than your (non-viera) character has been alive.she has no desire for fame or the spotlight, but has found a living accompanying ceremonies, balls, funerals, religious services, weddings, and any other situation in need of a good tune.she plays just about any western classical instrument with varying degrees of skill, and has composed a great deal of secular and religious music.
DEATH OF THE MOTHER
history sharlayan
opening new doors
she spent decades caring for her elezen mother as she became elderly and required more support. it was rough, isolating — and ever since her death some fifteen years ago, sharlayan citizens may note that it seems siobhan finally feels safe enough to become her own person.
LIFELONG STUDIUM ACADEMIC
history sharlayan
super nerd
before she left sharlayan in pursuit of musical history, it was guaranteed that she was participating in at least one studium course at any given time, with varying degrees of interest.maybe your character and hers have been in group projects before? study partners?
FORUM MEMBER
history sharlayan
advocate of the arts
the people of sharlayan were happy to elect siobhan to a seat on the forum due to her storied history as performer, breadth of knowledge, and general love of the city state.she served for approximately ten years, advocating mainly for arts funding and support, and ultimately resigned due to the forum's hypocritical position of non-interference.
