Rules
General
Please feel free to DM; I'd love to chat or plot.
I do, however, prefer to RP on the TL.
I lean towards serious (and overarching) plots. I'm not the biggest fan of crack RP, but, if the mood strikes me, I'll play along.
I'm very patient when it comes to replies/starters. I usually don't bother to bump you; I understand that life gets busy sometimes.
No lewd/NSFW writing.
Dark, mature themes are present (mild violence, angst, depression, the good stuff).
Availability
I reply when I can, but you can always reach me via DMs or @ me.
I'm in Eastern Standard Time (EST).
I don't have a set time when I'm online. As long as I'm free.
Shipping
I'm basic--I'm on that Chrobin shit. Of course, I can ship Chrom with your character as long as there's good chemistry. Canon/OCs are fine!
I keep it SFW (as aforementioned); no sex, kinks, whatever. I’m just not that type of writer.
I also ask that you do not beg me to ship with your muse. I don’t feel comfortable with that. So, if that’s your plan from the get-go…well, I’m afraid you’re looking in the wrong place.
Art Credit
I use only official art from the games. I avoid using fanart. No AI, either.
Photo featured in the pinned post is from FE: Cipher; the artist is Kotaro Yamada.
Reaction sprites are pulled directly from FE: Warriors.
Biography
General
Chrom is the prince of the Halidom of Ylisse and the younger brother of Ylisse's current Exalt Emmeryn. He also has a younger sister Lissa and is retained by Frederick.As a descendant from the Hero-King Marth and the First Exalt, Chrom is a legendary warrior who sealed the Fell Dragon Grima a thousand years prior to the events of Awakening.As a symbol of this heritage, Chrom bears the Mark of the Exalt on his right shoulder and is deemed worthy to wield the divine blade Falchion.Age: 20 (beginning of Awakening);
22 (after 2-year timeskip);
23 (during Grima's defeat);
24 (when he finds Robin in post-Awakening AU)Gender: MaleSexuality: Bisexual; no preferenceBirthday: 05/27Likes: training/sparring, checking in on everyone, eating unpeeled orangesDislikes: Grima, breaking things on accident, loss of innocence, helplessness
Personality
Approachable & kind, preferring to forgo his royal upbringing to speak openly with others regardless of station.
Courageous, taking a stand to inspire others and lead by example--pushing through his fears and doubts.
Reckless, as he prefers to act now, talk later.
Fair, holding everyone in the Shepherds accountable for their actions while taking into consideration their achievements and shortcomings.
Charismatic, able to charm people with his leadership.
Awkward, sometimes finding it difficult to articulate his feelings.
Verses
Just as with Robin, Chrom can take part in any of the other FE verses via the Outrealm Gate.Please note that I don't own Engage, meaning I haven't played it, so I don't want to write in a verse I know little-to-nothing about. Sorry!As always, we can always either plot something together or wing it. Whatever you're comfortable with.
Awakening
Prince of the Halidom of Ylisse, leader and captain of the Shepherds and brother to Emmeryn and Lissa. He finds Robin unconscious in a field, not knowing that their fates intertwined that day.
Fates
TBD!
Heroes
Summoned to Askr by Kiran to fight as part of the Order of Heroes. Nothing more to it, really. Despite being whisked away to another realm, Chrom vows to fight with his all.
Warriors
Chrom and crew stumble through an Outrealm portal, entering the kingdom of Ayotolis. They are plagued by a similar problem: the impending resurrection of Velezark, the Chaos Dragon bent on destroying the world.
Inventory
All information on this page is pulled from the FE wiki, considering the history of Chrom's equipment.You can click on the link located at the bottom of each section to go to the source page.
Falchion
Falchion, also known as the Kingsfang, is a divine Sword that was forged by Naga from one of her fangs.In the 2000 years since Marth originally wielded the Arcanean Falchion to end the War of Shadows, the blade was presumably continuously passed down through Marth's lineage, changing in appearance drastically.The discrepancy in its appearance across time is explained by Owain in his supports with Lucina.The hilt (along with the entirety of the Binding Shield) has gone through repeated breakages and re-forgings over the centuries.Only the blade of Falchion has survived the test of time as it never rusts nor dulls, with the Art of Awakening saying the blade is capable of self-repairing.
Fire Emblem
The Fire Emblem is one of the national treasures of Ylisse, alongside the Falchion. For reasons unknown, the Fire Emblem now functions much differently then before.The Fire Emblem was used by the First Exalt of Ylisse to defeat Grima, but due to the Emblem's overwhelming power, four of the jewels were removed from it afterwards.When all five jewels (Argent, Sable, Gules, Azure, and Vert) are placed on the Emblem, the Awakening Ceremony can be initiated.The Fire Emblem is also used as a shield by Chrom when he is promoted to Great Lord.

As a wee lad, Chrom had begun his training with the sword. Over the years, he has perfected and developed his own style of swordplay.Now, he is an accomplished swordsman in his own right. As such, he excels in close range combat.Opting to wear little armor, Chrom is also agile and able to move around with ease in a fight.With an immense amount of hidden strength, he swings Falchion with gusto. Sometimes, a little too much gusto--causing him to break training dummies and walls!

I can write Chrom in any arc of Awakening. For specifics, please click on the Verses tab below (or DM and ask!)
Post-Awakening: Neutral Ending
Chrom delivered the final blow against Grima with the Awakened Falchion, casting the Fell Dragon into a millennium-long slumber.The world is saved, and the bleak future is staved off--for now...
While Chrom takes on the full mantle of Exalt and King of Ylisse, Robin decides to travel to lands beyond. For what purpose, Chrom does not know. But he respects his closest friend's wishes, giving them his blessing to explore a world free of Grima's influence.The Shepherds officially disband, but should the fate of Ylisse hang in the balance once more, Chrom will do what must be done to protect his kingdom.
Post-Awakening: Good Ending
Robin delivered the final blow against the Fell Dragon, causing them to fade away as their body could not handle being severed from Grima. Chrom, with a heavy heart, bore witness to what seemed like the passing of his other half. However, he did not believe his friend to have succumbed to death; Chrom believed Robin was still out there. He took to searching for them, never giving up.Exactly one year later had passed from that fateful day, when Chrom stumbled into Robin once more--unconscious in a field, like a dream from long, long ago...In that time, Chrom had become King of Ylisse, and Exalt of the halidom. He takes up Robin as his right-hand advisor, tactician, and closest friend.It is said that the two were nigh inseparable...
Post-Awakening: Bad Ending
The Shepherds were unable to kill Grima, which resulted in everyone's deaths. None survived, save for one whose fate has yet to be known: Lucina.With Robin possessed by the Fell Dragon, they have become nothing more than a vessel. They have embraced the full power of Grima, and now wreaks havoc upon the world.Chrom has become the Fell Dragon's mightiest thrall, leading legions of Risen to trample the world under their feet--claiming lands in the name of his new master.All hope seems lost, but there are moments when the Grima's influence wanes--allowing the true Robin to shine through.Can they win over the Fell Dragon's influence?...
