Cliff Notes ♚ BIO: The Confessions of Dorian Gray is an audio drama series that answers the question 'what would happen if Dorian Gray didn't bite it at the end of his book and instead had a bunch of monster of the week type shenanigans with the supernatural?' Dorian continues to live, traveling around the world and inserting himself into famous times or with famous people, as he inevitably gets caught up in some supernatural nonsense. Dorian himself is a hedonistic trainwreck of an immortal, who takes things personally, enjoys wine & sex way too much, tries to come off as someone who's hot shit, has a habit of sticking his nose into things that can be troublesome, and has an insane amount of secret self-loathing. He has a healing factor that's honestly quite bonkers, a vampire boyfriend that he's still not over (who's either dead, alive, or a meatsuit for Satan depending on the canonpoint), and a supporting cast that consists of a lot of Doctor Who actors. First Impressions ♚ VISUAL: It's canon that Dorian is really damn pretty and innocent looking. Not muscley or ripped or anything, but the sort of 'barely 20 years old pretty' that a rich someone in late 1800s England would be. He's 5'10", very skinny but in an attractive way (not underfed). He looks to be in his early twenties and has black hair. Here's a pic. ♚ FASHION: A general rule of thumb is very expensive clothing in monotone or muted colors. ♚ DEMEANOUR: He holds himself like he's hot shit and God's gift to mankind. Dorian's someone who carries himself with a ridiculous amount of self-confidence. ♚ AURAL: Dorian's got a British accent and speaks in a deeper register. Here him talk here. ♚ OLFACTORY: He smells like reeeeeally expensive cologne. ♚ MENTAL INFORMATION: Nothing's very strange/notable about his mental state, aside from various odd problems that mainly boil down to 'he's 150 years old and has 150 years worth of memories.' Unlike some other immortals who forget things as they get older, Dorian's got a surprisingly large amount of memories still in his noggin. ♚ MAGICAL INFORMATION:For most of his canon and the majority of my meme threads, Dorian ain't got no soul. Also, you know, there's that whole supernaturally connected to a portrait thing. That's pretty easy to suss out via magic. ♚ PERSONALITY: Sexy and he knows it, Dorian Gray's life is colored by the fact that he sold his soul for eternal youth and immortality. Utterly shameless and utterly hedonistic, he's drawn to the strange and unusual, rejecting anything and anyone he deems 'dull' or 'boring.' He's a social butterfly who loves to be the center of attention. At the same time, he's terrible at relationships, terrible at seeing past his own problems, and (though he'll never admit it) terribly lonely. It kind of sucks when all your loved ones just keep dying. ISADORA: Seeing you tonight, you're just the same, smug, selfish boy you always were. You don't deny it? DORIAN: I wouldn't dream of it. OOC ♚ CANON INFO: Dorian is specifically from the Big Finish audio series The Confessions of Dorian Gray. In memes, I tend to play him somewhere vaguely in a season 3 canonpoint, but I'm mad flexible as needed. ♚ BACKTAGGING: go for it! ♚ FOURTHWALLING: Call him out about shit that happens in Picture of Dorian Gray, as it's fictional in his universe. However, I'd prefer no fourthwalling of Confessions of Dorian Gray because let's be real, it's relatively obscure. ♚ PHYSICAL AFFECTION: He's a very touchy-feely sort of guy and will gladly accept handshakes or hugs. He's not one for super clingy people and will try to get out of that sort of physical affection. ♚ PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: Considering that Dorian is immortal, that killing thing will be a bit hard, but injure away! Please get in contact with me before we plan anything out, though. He can't fight worth a damn and relies a lot on his immortality to get him out of scrapes. ♚ RELATIONSHIPS: Depending on the canonpoint, Dorian can be anywhere from "big ol'slut" or "desperately trying to be monogamous because have you met Toby, he's amazing and a vampire and his bf." Dorian is bisexual, but with a preference towards men. ☄ Permissions ♚ TRIGGERS: I personally have none. However, triggers likely to come up with Dorian include dubious consent, body horror, drug use, and Dorian being a massive skeeveball (coercion, ignoring the ideas of others, etc.) Conversations about his past might pull up all of the above plus these triggers: suicide, sexual assault of a minor, murder, torture.
