Introduction
About
Hello! I'm Lyric. I've been roleplaying on one platform or another for over 20 twenty years, and just writing that sentences made me need to lie down for a while and think about my choices o_O.I enjoy hurt/comfort, found family, enemies to friends to lovers, pansexual disasters, and hard-won happily ever afters. I'm particularly fond of emotionally-damaged characters who do a poor job of pretending that This Is Fine.
Somewhat obviously, I love Weird West! Please talk at me about your inspirations and unhinged ideas. 8D

Some of my own inspirations for this game are, in no particular order:
Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2003) - All three of these movies are complete trash and I will love them forever. ❤︎
The Missing (2003) - Harrowing and evocative. Watch the trailer here if you've never seen it.
The Gunslinger, The Drawing of the Three, The Wastelands - And to a somewhat lesser extent (that was quite a hiatus tbf), all the Dark Tower books by Stephen King.
Dark Winds (2022- ) - One of the best shows on television right now, hands down.
The Last of the Mohicans (1992) - 100x better than the book, forgive my heresy. Notable for Daniel Day-Lewis' unexpected sass.
The Young Riders (1989-1992) - My adolescence was made of 60% Gregg Rainwater fantasies.
Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman (1993-1998) - And 40% Jane Seymour fantasies.
