Hello! Nice to meet you, I’m Caine. Just a couple guidelines here:
♔ All questions are welcome.
♔ Muse is of age, mun is not. Please do not start a thread involving sexual themes.
♔ Mun has a severe phobia of bugs, especially arachnids. This isn't likely to happen anyway, but just to make sure, please don’t send me pictures/detailed descriptions of bugs, and please, please tag your bugs. I will unfollow. If you’re uncertain of whether something bug-involved will be okay or not, don’t hesitate to ask.
♔ Always accepting headcanons, memes, and drabble requests! Seriously, mun loves memes like nothing else.
♔ Random starters, crossovers and such are welcome. Please don’t be shy or hesitate to contact me.
♔ Unless otherwise specified, my starters and opens will generally be for mutuals only. But, you can definitely make a starter for me! We don't have to be mutuals for that.
♔ Please don’t be rude. Don’t godmod my muse, don’t force ships, don’t drop off the thread without briefly notifying me first. Thanks :-)
♔ I do ship Lingfan, but even then I ship chemistry above all others, meaning no pre-established romantic relationships, please.
♔ Please tag all contact as iinvxctus. I tag all contact; it’s just easier to keep track of.
♔ Being semi-selective and private, I will not always follow back. We don’t have to be mutuals to start a thread though, so don't be shy - we can plot anytime! Just come into my inbox and ask.
♔ Concrit is always welcome! This is a no hate blog - let's try to be nice to everyone, okay?
♔ OOC Skype is available to select mutuals; just ask.
♔ No RPing through an ask meme. Please just copy & paste the content into another post - it's so much more convenient that way.
♔ Exclusivity is fine with me, shoot me an ask and we'll work it out.
♔ If you need a specific tag for something don’t hesitate to tell me. And if I forget, just nag until I get it done.
♔ ♔ ♔ Ling Yao accepted Greed into his body as a conduit to the Philosopher's Stone at Greed's core, and fought with Greed's soul for dominance of his body. He has the ability to transmute carbon, creating an impenetrable shell from his skin - the Ultimate Shield.
♔ Ling's soul sometimes overpowers Greed, but it never lasts. Sometimes they even combine their powers in battle, switching sides effortlessly until you can't tell which face is human and which is not.
♔ Being the personification of the sin which he was named for, Greed claims to want everything in the world, but nothing can ever satisfy him. The only thing that Greed really wants is friendship, because friendship cannot be taken - it has to be earned.
Ling is a child prince, living in his homeland of Xing. At first glance his life seems idyllic: luxury, royalty, loyal bodyguards, what more could you want? But among plots, treachery, and assassination attempts, the twelfth prince is learning every day just how cruel the Emperor's court can be.
♔ Amestris:
After an arduous journey across the desert, Ling has finally arrived in Amestris, along with his bodyguards, Lan Fan and her grandfather Fuu. He smells blood - the goal is the Philosopher's Stone, the key to immortality, which will ensure that Ling is made the heir to become Emperor. However, something about this country isn't right...
♔ Homunculus:
This is my choice. Don't try to stop me! This is...this is what I want!
Ling accepts the homunculus Greed into his body in order to have access to the Philosopher's Stone. He lets Greed take control, but inside Ling waits for the opportunity to strike. This is the only way; he must honor Lan Fan's sacrifice. It's his chance, and he'll grab it with both hands - even if it means becoming a monster.
♔ To be a King:
At last, back home to Xing, with a little sister and the Stone in tow. Ling is named the heir to the throne. The weight of Fuu's death, combined with new responsibility, must make the idealistic young man grow up quickly. The Emperor's seat awaits.
