I'm having a hard time getting myself invested/motivated in this game. It's nothing against anyone here - I really like a lot of you! - I just don't think the game is a good fit for me. It seemed better to just drop neatly rather than linger without really enjoying myself or contributing as much as this game deserves, so I'm dropping Weimar.

Sorry for any inconvenience. You can still find me at shipoftheseus on plurk, or, conversely, feel free to unfriend/unfollow if you only added me for ToS.

Hello everyone!

I'm Isabelle, and I'm bringing you the glorious trainwreck that is the Weimar republic. He's technically Ludwig/Germany from That Silly Anime about nations as people who run around during WWII shouting at each other, but because he's from an earlier historical period - and I try to base him on history as much as possible - he acts quite a bit differently from the stodgy Germanies you may have seen before. Weimar is a serious party girl, drag queen, drug addict, artist, and part-time whore with a bad temper and several buckets full of poorly-suppressed issues.

A note on gender and pronouns and things: Weimar is not transgender. He's a crossdresser and somewhat genderqueer. I'll be using both male and female pronouns in narration for him at different times, just as he'll use different pronouns/names and descriptors for himself. He won't really get worked up about whatever your character calls him, as long as it's not 'it'. This is complicated by the fact that in his era, most of these concepts didn't exist in their modern PC format, and Weimar wouldn't give a fuck even if they did, so he isn't going to be giving people awareness-raising lectures on fluidity. In fact, he's just as likely to be offensive himself.

Trigger Warning for various -isms. )

I think that's everything for now. This place looks super fun, and I can't wait to play with all of you guys!
