let's play: the dated descent
Oct. 6th, 2013 06:42 pm101 things that Daniel personally pre-dates because he's a nerd from 1839 The Anglican Church. Kind of. In Daniel's time, it was called the Protestant Episcopal Church, or the Reformed Episcopal Church if you didn't want yourself associated with those Protestant fellows. Darwinian evolution. The dude was around and writing, but it was a long time till he'd publish On the Origin of Species (1859) and cause all that upheaval. Dinosaurs. Pause for laughter. Megalosaur had been dug up and identified, along with maybe one or two others, but they were just regarded as some more big old dead animals, and proof of a global Flood. The name 'dinosaur' wasn't even coined until the 1840s. Dumas. The Three Musketeers wasn't serialised until 1844. Lifts. Or, more accurately, popularised lifts for people. Elevators existed in 1839 for conveying goods between floors, but they weren't safe enough for use by the general public. It wasn't until 1853 that Elisha Otis would demonstrate an elevator with a safety device to keep it from falling if a cable snapped. HOWEVER there was the odd "ascending room" around that people could ride on (eg in the Colosseum, where it was a tourist attraction). Photography. Almost. Before Daniel's time, there was the camera obscura and whatnot, but it wasn't until several inventions came together that the daguerreotype process was announced in January of 1839. However, it would not come to England until after August of that year. Prussia's dissolution. At this point it was a monarchy, and its currency was the thaler. Prussia and the UK spent the Napoleonic Wars (1801-1815) kinda glaring across the channel and shoving each other. But they were also allied against France for a bit, so who knows what was going on there. The Separation of Church and State in England. Nobody had ever heard of rendering unto Caesar what was Caesar's, and the government was basically a bunch of Anglicans. |

INFO & PERMISSIONS FOR EWAY
Sep. 30th, 2013 03:58 pmcharacter info
Hello to all psychics, angels and what-have-you! Daniel here suffers from hallucinations, which started benign enough, have gotten a little bit bad, and will be worsening drastically as his life gets more and more violent. Feel free to notice this if that's something you can do!
If I describe a hallucination in a thread, what he sees will be in white font for your convenience.
Continuing to call anyone with fancy extra perceptions! Daniel is canonically "tainted" or "branded" by a horrible curse that he accidentally unleashed because he's a moron. There's some kind of nasty black mark on his soul and while its effects aren't thoroughly defined, it's noticeable if you have the means to notice it.
The curse thing that's locked onto Daniel is called the Shadow. It's pretty much an awful ancient god-monster that howls a lot and likes to troll Daniel by growing meat at him.
If you have any questions go ahead and ask here!
character permissions
Okay true life confessions, Daniel is an early Victorian and wants to be one of the cool kids, so he has some pretty terrible opinions on race and women and sexuality and [the list continues for eight thousand pages]
SO I won't be going so far as to write slurs in his tags because no. And I won't be pushing this stuff into every thread for the sake of being edgy. But Daniel has a lot of bigoted opinions and assumptions that were only challenged mildly or not at all in the time and place that he's from, so there is the potential for bigotry in the way he acts towards people or talks about them.
If this idea is uncomfortable for you, comment here and bigotry will not occur!
(Since this is part of his character, as opposed to something like canon puncturing that's easy to just not write, it'd be great if we could come up with a workaround together. Eg if you don't want him side-eyeing your character's gay relationship, we might agree to have the subject not come up.)
