better known as "the red bane," ares balaen is a rising name in the xenari underworld—an unpredictable enigma, feared for his razor-sharp mind and ruthless tactics. a pure human with no ties to kavana, he should’ve been nothing more than a footnote in a galaxy ruled by enhanced beings. yet, with a blend of strategic brilliance, daring audacity, and relentless ambition, he’s forced even the most powerful to take notice. his fiery red hair and chrome-infused look reflect the rebellious energy that fuels him—bold, daring, and impossible to ignore. ares doesn’t do things by halves; every fight is meticulously planned, every risk is calculated, and every victory is a statement: he may not possess supernatural gifts, but he’s here to stay.

❝ hi !

you can call me grumps ooc and ares if addressing my character! please take a moment to read his character profile before messaging me to plot.

❝ creative boundaries & self-respect !

i am not my characters, and i expect to be treated with kindness and respect. collaboration works best when there’s mutual give-and-take, and i want our dynamic to feel balanced and enjoyable for both of us. if my boundaries are disregarded or the energy feels one-sided, i won’t hesitate to step back to maintain a healthy writing environment. i also won’t entertain immature behavior—this includes guilt-tripping, passive-aggressive remarks, or throwing tantrums over my response time. i write at my own pace, for as many characters as i wish, and i don’t owe anyone a storyline. have an issue with me, my character, or my plot? you didn’t pay me to write you a story. if you’re that invested, go ahead and cut me a check.

❝ pacing !

writing is my downtime hobby, not a job, so while i’ll try to reply promptly, don’t expect me to be glued to my keyboard 24/7. if i’m active in the chat but not replying to plots, i’m just being social, not ghosting you. i value our connection, but you're not my girlfriend—so don’t ask me to prioritize you over everything else.

if a plot stops clicking for me, i’ll let you know so we can adjust or brainstorm something fresh. thanks for being chill about it!

❝ endgaming !

endgames should evolve naturally, no forcing or rushing. plot, character growth, and good vibes are what matter most. romance will happen when it makes sense in the story—not because we’re ticking boxes.

whether we get to an endgame or not, i appreciate every writing partner. every connection adds its own flavor, romance or not. we're equals in this, so let’s keep it chill. i’ll respond to threads in order, and communication is key—so, if you have any concerns or need to hash something out about our characters, hit me up! don’t leave me guessing.

❝ locations & plotting !

i prefer rooms for threads and group private messages for smut threads. my walls are used for updates, so please avoid posting on them.

for plotting, private messages work best. i encourage brainstorming together, and it’s helpful if you come with an idea to kick things off! if a session feels stagnant, i may pause the conversation.

❝ style & genre !

i write in 3rd pov paragraph style and use script in chats. length varies based on the scene, but you don’t need to mirror—just put in effort to keep the story engaging.

i’m happy to write starters if i have a strong idea but may decline if it makes more sense for your character to lead.

i’m open to most genres; see the mature threads section for specifics.

❝ connections & threads !

i’m open to connections but prefer threads that feel meaningful or exciting to explore. for big moments, like dramatic reveals or long-term dynamics, i’d love to thread them! smaller moments can be explored through headcanons or monologues.

❝ mentioning my character !

please check with me before involving my character in your threads—unapproved actions = godmodding. a quick message to coordinate is all it takes!

if your character plans to make a big move during an event i’m hosting, let’s sync up to make sure it fits the flow.

anyone who skips this step earns a spot on my YTA wall of fame. 😉

❝ romantic or intimate writing !

i love quick ic convos and back-and-forths—message me on private message! let’s keep these discussions out of the writer’s chat unless there's a designated ic space to keep things organized.

also, you are not in a relationship with my characters or me. if you think you are, it’s time for a reality check. i write fiction, not fantasies.

and please—no sharing soft-porn links. keep it respectful, i’m not here to fulfill anyone’s smut cravings.

❝ mature threads !

i’m over 21 ooc and open to writing smut if it fits the plot, though i rarely do so with new partners. feel free to bring it up if relevant, but please note that i’m not into pwp (plot? what plot?) threads.

❝ big no-nos !

i don’t rp topics like incest, bestiality, pedophilia, non-con/dub-con, or other taboo subjects. i also avoid infidelity plots.
