ACTIVE TIMES/PACE: Central Time; irregular hours. I have several health issues, and some days I can't tag at all. If I haven't tagged back in a while and you want to make sure I got the tag or am still planning to return it, feel free to poke me.
STYLE: No preference between brackets or prose; prefer present tense, but will match past. I sometimes have trouble keeping up with text threads for long unless they switch to in-person.
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: No gore in picture prompts, no graphic descriptions of gore in tags; no eye trauma; no insects.

OUT OF CHARACTER
BACKTAGS/SLOWTIME: ✓ (there is no "too old")
ASSUMED CR: ✓ (pms are open for discussion)
MULTIPLE THREADS: ✓
FAKE GAME SETTING/UNIVERSE CLASHES: ✓
DEFAULT SETTING: Modern day American, somewhere big enough to have a pretty good college nearby but not necessarily big city; supernatural world with the masquerade very firmly in place.

IN CHARACTER
PHYSICAL AFFECTION: ✓
He might be confused by it -- it's been a long time since Isaac's had people around to touch him -- and he'll probably be jumpy if you take him completely off-guard, because he's used to being on defense. He won't fight and he probably won't mind too much, though, depending on who it comes from.
PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: ✓
He fights dirty and prioritizes survival -- he'll run if he feels like it's more likely than winning. Isaac's harder to damage than a standard human, but can definitely be beaten. No formal training, but a lot of life-or-death experience.
MINDREADING/PSYCHIC ABILITIES: ✓
There's no way for him to be aware of anyone in his head. His thoughts are a bit jumbled, often more images than words, and there's a constant running surveillance for danger in the back of his head. He might be able to notice certain other psychic abilities, particularly those that mimic living things; hit me up to discuss if something might go that way.
MEDICAL INFORMATION: Heartbeat is significantly slower than normal, to a point that would be dangerous to some. He reads as perpetually iron and vitamin deficient, though it doesn't seem to massively affect him symptoms-wise. Has strange scars in a lot of places due to fighting weird death plane things. His body doesn't have typical human needs in many ways anymore; see abilities for more information.
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: Isaac spent seven years wandering another plane with no other people around, and is now trying to relearn how to live with the living. He's touched by a lot of death things, and talks very bluntly about death and grief if it comes up. His social norms are questionable, and he may push boundaries, though he'll back off if told. He also forgot large chunks of his pre-death-plane life and has some grief and issues around that, so memory issue triggers may come up.

RELATIONSHIPS
PLATONIC: ✓
He has boundary and social issues, but he's working on it! He'd like to make friends and he's fairly open to it, he's just still trying to remember how to exist among people. He also can not only see ghosts but touch them, and feels a little more comfortable around them, especially if they've been dead for a while -- they tend to understand his weirdness a little better, though that's not universal.
NEGATIVE: ✓
He's a little jumpy and paranoid after fighting for his life for seven years. It's entirely possible to set him off. It's also definitely possible for him to say something insensitive and piss other people off.
SHIPPING: ✓
Isaac hasn't really explored his sexuality at all since coming back, but doesn't really have strong preferences towards gender. It will probably have to be slowburn, because he's going to be extremely unsure about it. Some kind of long-term FWB is also possible, but someone would have to very directly bring it up because he can't read signals very well, and it would have to be with someone he trusts as a friend already even if it's not romantic. Also very interested in relationships with ghosts or death-beings.

IDEAS AND WANTS
◾ Friendships with death-beings, undead people, ghosts, etc. He's not actually a death-thing himself, but he's spent so long close to the death plane that he's more at home with them than anything else.
◾ Friendships with semi-normal humans willing to deal with his uncertain attempts at being a person again.
◾ "Canonically", he stays with the local psychopomp to get his bearings back after being returned. I'd love to PSL with other people stepping into that role, especially other death-types or very experienced supernatural types.
◾ Playing with weird power and body change things about his time in the death realm. Blood-feeding threads, accidentally emotionally fucking with people, sensing people are dying, someone being weirded out by his physical differences, etc.
◾ Getting to know other people who did the weird "go somewhere people aren't supposed to be and survive it for a while, then come back" dance and are now adjusting, or have adjusted previously. Also open to AUs where he's stuck somewhere else with someone, or someone else is in the death realm with him.
