But this one was born to fight.
Maybe it's not the life they would have chosen. Maybe they'd like to lay down their arms.
But they were born to fight.
It's what they know. It's what they do best. It's all they can do.”

guidelines


001.GENERAL I’m open to many fandoms and obviously OCs. If I’m not so familiar with your fandom, be ready that I will ask questions!
Never hesitate to message me or send in memes! I’m a shy thing and in most cases I just can’t get myself to approach you. Memes are in general a good way to start ic interactions for me.
Always feel free to ask me questions about my character! It’ll literally make me so happy you don’t even know!
002.HATE I won’t accept any hate on my dash! There will be no participation in callout culture or any of this kind here, I’m too tired for this tbh. If I see anything homophobic, biphobic, transphobic, racist etc you’ll be blocked very fast.003.TRIGGERS I try to tag possible triggers, but always let me know, if you are uncomfortable with certain topics & i’ll do my best to tag them, as I really want everyone to feel safe here. I personally don’t have any triggers & generally I am a very chill person, so never feel nervous about anything!!
Topics that will be present due to Monty's story include: child abuse, suicidal tendencies, alcohol abuse, depression. Please proceed with caution.
however there's something specific I need to make clear: I will usually not follow back blogs with muses from harry potter. while i’m not triggered by it myself, it still makes me mad & prefer not to see it on my dash.
004.SHIPPING  I ship chemistry. Always feel free to approach me, if you are interested in discussing a deeper relationship between our muses! If we have a thread & you think our muses might go well together - Talk to me! Chances are high, that I feel the same!
Smut might happen, but will always be tagged accordingly. It rarely happens though & if I really have to be comfortable with the other mun involved. Obviously muses under 18 are completely excluded from any nsfw content.

005.MAINS & EXCLUSIVES I might go exclusive with certain muses with time. Please respect that and don’t pressure me, if you play the same character. However it’s more likely that I’ll have mains & only go exclusive in special cases, when I can't see myself writing with any other version of that character. Keep in mind that this is never against you personally!006.MUN I go by the name Flora (she/they pronouns, UTC +1) & I’m 27, working as a librarian fulltime. My discord is always available for mutuals.
I’m german, so english is not my first language. Longer replies might take more time. I give my best, but if grave mistakes should appear you can tell me. I’m always up for learning.
007.CREDIT most graphics, including the psd, were made by the amazing clancycomms. THE carrd template was made by plutocommissions.thanks for taking the time to read through this!

biography


(still wip!!)arc i When Wilhelm's mother finds comfort from her loveless marriage with a common shepherd, that affair has consequences: she gives birth to Wilhelm on February 22nd 1502 and the duke accepts him as his second son. While most of the attention lands on Heinrich, his older brother, Wilhelm and his younger siblings are mostly raised by the duchess, growing up between her lessons of kindness and Knighthood and their father's much harsher lessons of violence and power at all costs.
With his mother's eventual death, the last bit of light fades from the castle and Wilhelm is taken in by his uncle in henneberg for his education.
Years pass and in the end his love for the lowborn cecilia & a war he doesn't want to fight force him to finally confront his father and openly oppose him. Wilhelm is banished and disowned, but more free than ever before. His childless uncle makes him his official heir and he marries cecilia, bulding his own, new family.

b

ARC ii When his uncle is poisoned and dies, Wilhelm is pushed into the position of count. together with his wife, he does his best to work towards a good life for everyone under his protection .
A new conflict arises and wilhelm finds himself on the battlefield, like so many times before. Though he never expected to face one particular enemy: his own older brother. It only takes a short moment of hesitation and He can feel the sword pierce him. In the chaos of the fight, nobody will ever know the truth.

NOTES

  • except for in his main verse, Wilhelm does learn about his true origin & being a bastard much sooner, so that can be brought up in interactions

  • In his main verse potential shipping is limited to the time before he meets cecilia
