RULE ONE. // this blog is strictly 21+, no exceptions. if your age or a similar note is not easily found on your blog, carrd, doc, etc i will not follow. i am also unlikely to interact with child muses outside of a very select few i have already plotted with.RULE TWO. // this blog is permanently low activity && highly selective. muse comes && goes often for me, so it may be some time between posts. that being said, i am ALWAYS open for chatting ooc or plotting. my discord is available to mutuals && my tumblr messages are open. non-mutuals may send character development asks, but no ask from an unfollowed blog will result in a thread.RULE THREE. // aldrich is dash only && i do not use icons. i tend to moderately format my posts. i HEAVILY prefer no icons / headers / footers / etc in threads, but rp partners are, of course, free to format however they please.RULE FOUR. // as this aldrich's main verse contains a collection of universes, crossovers are more than welcome. that being said, plotting is necessary if you would prefer he be outside of this location.

RULE FIVE. // there will be extreme nsfw on this blog, ranging from gore, cannibalism, violence, etc to sexual content. the basics will be tagged in the following format: cw gore. anything with even vaguely sexual themes will be tagged with // nsftRULE SIX. // no godmodding, metagaming, blending ic/ooc, etc etc etc. your muse is not immune to consequences simply because they may be a hero. aldrich has broken gods between his jaws && any threats will not be taken lightly. because of devourer's abilities, plotting any sort of conflict is preferred.RULE SEVEN. // i tend to write my actual ic posts in the dead of night &&, whilst i do my best to proof things a thousand times over, inevitably i will a word or similar from time to time. feel free to let me know && i'll fix it asap.RULE EIGHT. // i have no passwords, nor will i send any in. if i follow you, i have read your rules.

deus eternae

aldrich's very presence is a spell, charm potent enough to infect many instantaneously. he is comfort incarnate, his aura one of overwhelming love. any susceptible to his charms are drawn to him like moths to a flame && welcomed into irithyll to join the faithful.those who fall hard && fast become his deacons, treasured within cathedral. they are completely enthralled, willing to do anything their saint asks of them. they tend to him at all hours of the day, paid in whispers of praise && gentle touch. they could not dream of a higher honour than careful brush of fingers along jaw && genuine smile directed solely at them.should someone resist his magic, extended exposure to aldrich's aura may serve to persuade, though none are kept against their will in irithyll. at any time, any may leave without being questioned. he has never had a deacon turn their back upon him, for they know where they belong.not even aldrich himself is capable of picking out who may or may not bend to his will. saint's most beloved companion, however, oftentimes can.

aldrich oozes confidence, a drug to deacons && lure to outsiders. though he may not be completely certain of how he ensnares, he is well aware of his effect on others && uses this to his advantage. when his presence alone is not enough or he believes more has been earned, he doles out physical contact generously. whether it be face gently cupped in hands, an arm snaked about torso, a kiss, or something more, saint has done it all && deacons have been blessed.
