Personality

"Alltimes do hardybest, reassuring face."

A self-perpetuated simplistic man, Myron is an easy heart to read on the surface. Many describe him as quiet and bumbling, often blending in with his surroundings and never purposefully drawing attention to himself. He carries a heart with a mantra of "every uplander deserves a second chance," and is willing to hear out stories from all walks of life. As a result, he tends to be more on the gullible-side, often falling for light-hearted jokes or more serious scams.Below his simplicity, Myron has significant insight and empathy to uplanders, often able to pick up on others being distressed with ease. His earnestness makes it easy to speak to him, albeit others may find it difficult to understand him in-turn.On occasion, those close to Myron can be subjected to his "babblybrooks," wherein he chatters endlessly about special interests without an end in sight. On even rarer occasions, Myron - if confronted with his friends being hurt or yelled at - will be confrontational and act brave to diffuse a situation. Otherwise, he is oft described as "the plainest man I've ever met," "simple to a fault," or "unmemorable."NOTE: Myron is considered to be on the autism-spectrum. As a result, he has several stimming tendencies (such as picking at the fringe of fuzzy fabrics) or may experience a random overwhelmed 'shutdown'.

To Catch an Uplander

☆Character Hooks☆


"Shinies, question mark?">Avid in his love for all gemstones and glimmering rocks, Myron's intellect and highly-specialized knowings of the earth's bounties can be uncovered with the showcasing of any manner of stone brought his way. Just be prepared for an impromptu lecture on the stone of choice; once he gets going, he knows not when to stop."Oh - uhmm - apologetic face, worrynots, am knowing lipflaps are shared strangely.">Myron's speech patterns and lack of facial expressions/vocal intonations are typically what draws many to inquire into the 'why' and 'how come.' He does not mind being forthright in answering any who are curious about it."Are of Idyllshire, question mark? Me, too, delighted face.">A resident of Idyllshire and raised by his gobbiepa, Myron utterly adores his homeland and will spend bells upon bells talking about their little corner of the realm. If another is of Idyllshire, they may know of Myron as the resident "Hyur who speaks in funny faces and son of Stickqix of the Bangpots," or as "the Hyur who keeps bringing back lime seeds to the Mudplots."


☆Character Hooks - Deeper Still☆


Irregular Rhythm>Those performing medical check-ups upon Myron may discover the heart is a.) on the wrong side, and b.) doesn't seem to sound quite right.Fear of the Dark, Fear of the Crimson>When faced with vast amounts of pitch-black darkness or spotting blood that belongs to not himself, Myron has a chance to undergo an 'episode' of sorts (PTSD). It's been getting better lately. He tends to avoid watching combat, but this, too, has been changing ever so slightly.Ancient Technology>Despite a proclaimed lack of intelligence, Myron harbors a deep knowing of Allagan ruins and the like - and sometimes, it may even sound like it's not himself speaking on the matters...All That Glitters>If cards are played correctly, Myron's biggest love for jewelry and jewelry-making will make itself known. He claims himself not very creative, so this hardly comes to light as a hobby of his.☆☆☆☆☆CONTENT WARNINGS (PLEASE READ)Some of Myron's more intimate history contains the following: depictions of victimhood to physical/mental/sexual abuse, physical violence, sexual violence [r-word], and a variety of traumas. There are instances where this character may remember what happened to him in the past, bringing these topics up (less likely relating to sexual violence). Please keep in mind when interacting with him - and make mention if you would rather avoid reading/learning about it!☆☆☆☆☆

OOC Notes

-Writer & OC is over 21+-Willing to participate in any long-term/short-term RP scenarios; ERP is subjected to situational and only with permission.-WU/T is a-OK if [RP] tag = ON.-Intolerance of any kind (homophobia, transphobia, racism, ableism, etc) is a no-go, period-Feel free to ask in-game or on discord if there are questions/desires regarding RP with Myron; am pretty open to mostly anything.-Does have the forbidden arts active; it is not necessary to sync to enjoy him, as it only changes perhaps three things. What you see in vanilla is what you get even with additions.-Can provide PDFs of character-related supplemental readings if asked for regarding lore - but, more fun to find out IC!
