DAEMON MEME

THE DAEMON MEME




a DAEMON is an animal that represents your character's soul in some way; the concept originates from Phillip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy.

HANDY WIKI LINK

Daemons are ALMOST ALWAYS the opposite gender of their person, and while their shape reflects their person's personality, they don't always agree with their person. Someone who seems stern might have a stern daemon... or they may have a boisterous one, showing a hidden side to them.

Children who haven't been through puberty have daemons that shapeshift, but they often have favorite forms.

SO

1. POST WITH YOUR CHARACTER.

2. If you know what their Daemon would be, tell us, and explain why! Is their preincarnation daemon any different than their reincarnation's? Why or why not?

3. If you're like WOW LAWL I HAVE NO CLUE then post asking for advice

4. RP stuff out! This is open to potential applicants as well for them to get a feel for their characters. Daemons are a great way to suss out personality traits.

I..... HAVE NO IDEA. I am tempted to say some sort of reptile, but I'm not certain. Shiro is protective, social but emotionally distant, somewhat cruel, an asshole with a heart of gold. Hungry all the time. Ferocious fighter when he actually gets wound up. Maybe an alligator?

Hmmm...

I'll suggest green iguana. Don't knock them just because they're herbivorous (as far as that goes)! As babies they are very social and look after each other. Males will protect their sisters by leading predators away or covering them with their own bodies. As adults they split apart and get more solitary. There are males which display to attract females, and there are males which forcibly mate. The fact that they have appeasement behaviors also suggests that they can hurt each other, and getting defensively whipped with their tails is very painful. They are also not generally seen as affectionate, though they can be.

Oooh that is cool. Definitely close to Shiro! And for Daemons, diet doesnt matter because they don't eat anyway... so yesss... Shiro would have an iguana daemon who, despite being female, shows some male secondary traits. because she's tough ok.
