CONTACT POST & INFO
Mar. 9th, 2017 04:55 pmThis is how you can get in touch with me when other methods fail. Preferably this is for plotting, or unfinished threads etc.

Character info
Age: 15
Height: 5'9"
Build: Thin
-Ukitake's given name (十四郎) can be spelled several ways. I chose the way I was taught to transliterate it while taking 3 years of Japanese language classes. I don't mind if you spell it another acceptable way that is comfortable for you. In roman letters these include Juushirou, Jushiro, Jyuushirou, and Jūshirō among others. It literally means 14th son, by the way.
-Ukitake's father is never named in Bleach canon, but a common "fanon" theory is that his name is Juusanrou, or 13th son, based upon Juushirou's given name. In fact, none of his family is named. I'll be making some up for the Kaidan AU, since his family is a large part of his life.
-In Bleach canon, Ukitake is sick with a disease that looks like tuberculosis. For the sake of the Kaidan AU, Young!Ukitake will have actual pulmonary tuberculosis (known as 'rogai' before 1868 in Japan) and as such will be potentially contagious to other human characters.
That being said, catching the disease from him is pretty hard to do unless your character spends lots and lots of prolonged contact with him, and even then, only about 5-10% of those infected with tuberculosis develop active disease. If you are considering having your character "catch" the disease, please contact me first so we can discuss it.
Other useful info:
- I not intending to put this character in a pairing at the current time. If you are considering playing a pairing with this character please contact me OOC first.
- My time zone is GMT + 1 (so I may be sleeping when you're ready to play!)
- American English is my first language.
- Where do I get my icon bases? Years of collecting doujinshi, that's where. :x
