ㅤRULE 1.ㅤ Selaphiel is designed with at least moderately lore-adjacent, mid-powered characters in mind. The deeper you get into ANGELIQUE lore there is potential for some lore deviance, but most interactions will not touch upon this. Feel free to ask more if you would like to know up front.ㅤRULE 2.ㅤ I will not roleplay with players under the age of 21, though 25 is preferable due to some of the content the Angeliques touch upon. I will selectively interact with characters under 21, but no characters under 18 for any reason. Ask first. Do not assume your character is the exception.ㅤRULE 3.ㅤ He is currently in a monogamous marriage and is not open to any other sort of romantic or sexual entanglements, with no exception.

ㅤRULE 4.ㅤ This character appears on two separate named characters from time to time: WELL-DRESSED MAN on Marilith, and the standalone Selaphiel Angelique. Both follow the same lore and are the same character.ㅤRULE 5.ㅤ If there are problems, if you are not enjoying the roleplay, if you have been upset somewhere, I expect you to communicate that with me. Instances of duplicity and dishonesty will result in a cessation of roleplay relationship.ㅤRULE 6.ㅤ Most importantly, IC=/=OOC. Selaphiel and his family are traditionalists, they hold conservative values, and may act in kind. These do not reflect my beliefs or values in any way and is purely fiction. If this makes you uncomfortable, address it with me, and we will change the trajectory.

the things that you take for granted are things that other people pray for.

ㅤHOUSE OF LORDS.ㅤ Selaphiel stands in at the House of Lords for his father, whose ailing health keeps him from being see in public. He is known for arguing against rapid reform and holding to more outdated beliefs.ㅤA BIT OLDER.ㅤ Despite the normal nature of how Society works, Selaphiel did not marry until he was fourty-two years of age, and has yet to produce an heir. There are many rumors and whispers about this--none of which seem to lend themselves to his favor.

ㅤWALLFLOWER.ㅤ Two sons and he was the first born, but not the most social: when he does attend such functions, he is often more withdrawn and few of words. It can even be remarked that the Future Viscount has shockingly few friends and confidants.ㅤBLACK CALLING CARD.ㅤ His calling cards are kept in a fine silver case in his pocket, but the keen eyes may notice alongside the light blue cards, beneath them, tucked away, are black cards, ones that the keenest information brokers may have questions about.

we make our way in the darkness.

light is reserved for the fury alone.

Oh, what a joy, to be the first born son. What a blessed life placed before the first-born of a family paling only to the HIGH HOUSES insofar as their renown and power. A sought after child, though a troubled birth ( the mother is fine, his father was assured, lest the Fury herself only know what anger there would be, damnation of a son that took away his father’s favorite thing ). Blessed life, but not an easy one, from youth. High expectations for he must be perfect, and he must be right and good. He must be smart but obedient and so many contradictory things until:Someone loved him. Someone loved him as he was, in ways that he did not know he could be loved ( his mother loved him, but his father took her too soon, ever aching, ever unknowing and hungry like one of the family dogs weened too soon ) and they were a gentle merchant with golden eyes. witty and smart, in the business of peddling ore and metals, met through the line of the family work--and they were found dead, in the brume. a failed mugging, every gil still on them. the poor first born son knew what that meant.He stopped loving, after that.Amidst all this, a brother, a spare, second son.

A competition. They were pitted against one another, raised in animosity. Amidst all this, a FIRE that bloomed and took his father’s arm and leg and half of his face and he had caused it, there, with his own hands, the flame of the family in his blood, but he was scared.He was too scared, and refused, and his father hated him for it.

HIS FATHER HATED HIM FOR MANY THINGS.

But what can he ever be but a FIRST-BORN SON, married to a perfectly good woman who is a perfect stranger living a life where he is wary even to want or step toe out of the leering shadow cast by something far more frightening than a dragon ever could be. A beast that had given him life and could extinguish it, easily, easily as breathing. What could he do?He runs the family’s silver business, and does what he should. He learns the tricks and trades and tries to keep those he can safe ( I’m sorry, brother, forgive me. ) in the looming shadow of the monster that lives in marble halls.If only could live up to the monster's expectations maybe it would be okay, after all.
