MARCH AU PLANNING POST
AU Backstory Planning Post
✯Information
Every month, we'll have a post where new characters and old characters can plan out backstories with one another. This should hopefully get characters something to work with when coming up with their alternate universes and get some prebuilt CR for those who are looking for it! This is NOT a requirement, you could be an unattached person if you'd like! However, for those who do want it, this is the place for you!
Before you start with making an AU, I would recommend getting familiar with some of the information to get an idea of how the setting works here.
◆ How to Build an AU
◆ What are Families?
◆ The Eight Families
◆ Names
◆ Full Navigation for any other questions/curiosities!
Once you get done with that, you can comment to the post!

✯Established Characters
For established characters, you can use this post as well! If you have an "open to all" type of CR where you're always needing a certain type of CR, you can do that here! This includes a restaurant needing regular patrons or a teacher needing students, guinea pigs for experiments, etc. Open to All is literally Open to All, it is never closed until the OP player adds a CLOSED comment so if you're a new player, don't feel like you're overwhelming them by commenting!!

Re: Open to All | Kestrel Hath (Wind on Fire)
Forte has worked every part time job imaginable though. Sometimes does graffiti but he's mostly focused on his music and streaming now.
She can have stolen from him before, or attempted to if you want. Since he used to as a kid before Hyuna took him in though he might notice it. That said, if it seemed like she needed something he would probably just let her have some cash, or tell her to get a meal from the cafe.
Re: Open to All | Kestrel Hath (Wind on Fire)
what's the funniest thing she could have stolen from Forte? noticing is totally fine, if he didn't seem too dangerous she might have kept coming back to... hang out...
Re: Open to All | Kestrel Hath (Wind on Fire)
But man, what would he carry that would be funny. I'M NOT SURE. He probably regularly carries his phone, headphones, journal/notebook, wallet. Maybe some tickets to a show?? Stealing tickets to his own show only to realize it was his own show would be funny tho lmfao. He also carries some make-up for performances (think eyeliner), and sometimes nail polish.
But her coming back to hang out is cute. This is essentially how things went with him and his sis.
Re: Open to All | Kestrel Hath (Wind on Fire)
she'll come hang out but also scowl reluctantly when he suggests going to the cat cafe + make excuses to avoid it cuz that means appearing in public
