Zhalar Soulsong

About

Outgoing, cheerful, and optimistic, he exudes warmth and charm. Quick to offer words of encouragement or lend a sympathetic ear, he possesses a surprising depth of wisdom for those who seek his counsel. He delights in the finer things in life, savoring the world's beauty and sharing his joy with others. Kind and generous, he can turn serious when needed and becomes a fierce ally in battle. Few can truly stir his ire, but even then, he masks it behind velvet smiles, concealing a sharp wit and implacable strength.Standing four ilms over six fulms, he boasts a muscular, athletic figure. His swarthy complexion contrasts strikingly with his brilliant aquamarine eyes, set deep beneath ebon brows and framed by sooty lashes that would make anyone envious. His eyes hold a sleepy, satiated look. A hawk-like nose sits above a wide mouth that frequently curves into an irreverent grin, and his chin is adorned with a neatly trimmed goatee. His graying black hair is meticulously groomed and liberally streaked with silver, hinting at his age. Crow's feet fan from the corners of his eyes, and laugh lines bracket his mouth, suggesting he is likely in his late forties or maybe even slipped over the hill into his fifties. His long-fingered hands, strong and supple, lack the calluses of a warrior. With lean hips and powerful legs, he moves with the grace of a dancer.His cultured, lyrical baritone voice carries an exotic accent, marked by a sing-song cadence with staccato consonants and elongated vowels. (Voice claim: Ghassan Massoud as King Saladin from Kingdom of Heaven.) Up close, a subtle spicy fragrance lingers around him, combining tobacco with refined notes of cardamom, ginger, cedar wood, and citrus. The scent is not overpowering, noticeable only to those in close proximity or with a keen sense of smell.

RP Hooks

Zhalar is the astute and charismatic co-owner of The Rainbow Room, where he's known for treating every guest like long-lost family. As the General Manager, he makes miracles happen daily, ensuring that everyone who steps through the doors of this friendly neighborhood bar with a rainbow twist feels at home.While Zhalar’s primary focus is on running The Rainbow Room, he's also a skilled healer who might have crossed paths with your character during their adventures. Though he has settled down, Zhalar hasn’t entirely left the adventuring life behind, leaving plenty of chances to encounter him in the wild or on the battlefield.Zhalar honorably resigned his commission as a Flame Captain Chirurgeon in the Immortal Flames. Your character might share a history with him in the Grand Companies, whether as an ally or a rival. Should the need arise, Zhalar could be persuaded back into active duty, adding layers of dynamic tension to any story.In addition to his work at The Rainbow Room, Zhalar owns the Joyful House of Healing Clinic and Spa (Mateus - Goblet - Ward 24 - Plot 5), where he sees patients by appointment. The spa is open to visitors at all times, and he occasionally assists at his husband's Quaint Clinic in Lavender Beds (Mateus - Lavender Beds - Ward 30 - Plot 27).Beyond his business acumen, Zhalar is an avid alchemist and gardener. He grows many of the herbs he uses in his alchemical creations and enjoys gathering ingredients in the wild. He crafts his own medicines, colognes, and soaps, and occasionally takes commissions for custom blends. He has a variety of other hobbies which give him a healthy work-life balance; gourmet cooking, woodworking, and fitness being among his favorites.Accompanying Zhalar is a mischievous domakin fish with a mind of its own. Feel free to roleplay that this curious creature is invading your character's personal space—its soul-stealing stare might indeed be plotting something.I’m NOT opposed to bad outcomes for Zhalar. Loss and adversity are part of character development. Do NOT violate my character's IC consent without OOC discussion and consent FIRST. If you do, you will be blacklisted and blocked.If I don’t immediately respond to your attempt at RP, please send a tell. I might be tabbed out or AFK, probably working on art or main tanking that kid aggro.

OOC

Availability: I’m on Central Time (GMT -6). Monday and Friday nights are my dedicated RP nights with friends. The first through fourth Sunday nights I'm running The Rainbow Room. Wednesday nights I'm busy running another venue. However, I otherwise tend to have a very flexible schedule!Let's just say I am beyond the meaning of life, the universe and everything. I'm a single parent of a special needs child. If I AFK suddenly/stop responding, I’m not ghosting you, I’ve just had to go take care of a family matter. Please be understanding of this and don’t throw a snit at me. We’re all supposed to be mature adults here. If you are rude to me about having to prioritize taking care of my child over doing whatever in A GAME with you, I will blacklist you. Go touch grass and grow up.I am a liberal, intersectional feminist who believes Black Lives Matter, Love is Love, Trans Lives Matter, and Equality should be the law of the land. If you don't hold these values or at the very least you can't respect these values, then kindly see yourself elsewhere. I will not tolerate bigotry of any kind.CONSENT MATTERS! If you violate my character's consent IC and my consent OOC, I will blacklist and block you. Similarly, IC =/= OOC. If you cannot understand the difference, I will blacklist and block you.Feel free to say hello to me any time and if I'm around I'll rawr back at you! I might be tabbed out in game probably working on art or main tanking kid aggro.

If you've made it here, I assume you're 21+ (preferably 30+) years of age or older. If not, shoo! You don't belong here!Zhalar is happily married and has other partners as well. His plate is pretty full. Happy to be friends with people, but he's NOT looking for anything. He is naturally friendly and cheerful and playfully flirtatious with pretty much everyone. No, it's not personal, he just likes to make people feel special and bring a smile to their faces.CONSENT MATTERS! Do NOT violate my character's consent IC and do not violate my consent OOC. If you do, you will be blacklisted and blocked.Again, IC =/= OOC and if you cannot respect this boundary, you will be blacklisted and blocked.Moon runes? Yep, I got them. Might even share them via Discord. Do NOT discuss them with me in game. I will NOT acknowledge it.

I have a stalker.I cut off contact with this person in 2023. They have continued to stalk me and spread rumors about my friends and I since then. They continue to try reinventing themself; creating new Discord and social media identities, new characters and Free Companies in game (generally using fantasias, renaming their characters, renaming their Free Companies, transferring characters, and buying Free Companies from other people). They have gone around being blacklisted and banned to stalk me either directly or by proxy both in and out of game such as using a new Discord ID to sneak into my art Discord server and then contacting me via my art Ko-Fi account.If someone is telling you things about me or supposedly showing you "proof" of something about me, please take it with a grain of salt. They have a habit of taking out of context screenshots and using those as "evidence" against other people. They often would insist on speaking via voice chat, giving verbal consent for many things, then later claiming to other people that their consent was violated both IC and OOC.I'm not their only victim.They abused me, my friends, and a number of other people I know and some people who have come forward to contact me about being abused by them.I know I'm vague posting here, but I'm DONE being a silent victim. I do NOT owe this person (nor their enablers and accomplices) my silence, especially because they seem to be starting the cycle all over again.This person is a toxic, abusive narcissist with BPD. I was taken in by the attention, the seeming friendliness, the good writing and role play, and their artistic talent. Thus began a cycle of my consent being violated in (their character repeatedly having a series of affairs without my character's consent) and out of character (such as some very personal information I confessed to them being outed in their Discord server without my consent) and, when I tried to escape the situation, I was accused of hurting them and hoovered back into the situation because I was unfortunately manipulated by them and their partner (my former friend and also former RP partner whom I introduced to them) into begging for their forgiveness and bending over backwards to regain their favor. Then there would be the love bombing as a show of approval for when I did things that pleased them and the petulance and cold shoulder where I had to find ways to appease them when I did things they didn't like.I was isolated and if I played my other characters, such as my main, I was harassed until I played my alt who was involved with them. I almost lost my main's house because I spent so much time on that character at this person's constant request. If I tried to role play with other people, I was harassed and threatend that they would end role play between our characters and that would also be the end of role play between myself and my other former friend and RP partner (whom I'd known first and introduced to them). More than once when I tried to escape their abuse, they pushed me away and forced my former friend and RP partner to cut off contact with me, but also used this person to manipulate me into seeking their forgiveness and doing whatever it took to get back into their good graces.This was a cycle of abuse that went on for over a year and, when I finally cut them off in summer 2023, the stalking began.They refused to leave my spaces per our agreement and had to be banned from mutual Discord servers where I was a VIP and they weren't, especially because they were making passive aggressive comments and reacts (not directly, but posting comments, emoji etc.) after my posts. After being banned from my one friend's server, they tried to smear my friend with accusations my friend didn't pay for an art commission, then backpedaled when my friend produced all the receipts for full payment.I paid this person for art which I never received and also paid for a hotel room for them which they said they would reimburse me but never did. They'll claim they did by going around being blocked and banned in December 2024 to send me money via Ko-Fi, but the $100 they sent does not cover what they owe, and I would have preferred zero contact rather than them going around being blocked and banned to send anything along with a message trying to get back in touch with me and inviting me to contact them via Discord. Shortly after that, they and their friends stalked my friends and I through a public RP event in game in January 2025. I finally had to reach out to my former friend and RP partner to tell them to tell this person I refuse to be stalked. I didn't initially get a response until I told them I was documenting it as non-compliance, then my former friend attempted to make excuses about it.Several people unknown to me joined my Discord server shortly after I cut off contact with this person, then I was informed they were part of this person's community, so I had to ban them. Other people who were members of this person's community who had also been abusive to me didn't leave my server so I also had to ban them. At one point several months prior to my cutting them off, this person had tried to get me to close my Discord server and funnel my community into their server, then became petulant and angry when I refused because my other venue is MY brainchild, NOT theirs. After cutting off contact, people began to randomly come into my other to target and harass my staff members and I for no reason at all, which necessitated the institution of that venue's rules.They and their friends stalked my friends and I through a public RP event in January 2025 and one of the people who stalked me tried to join an RP group I'm a member of. I had to lodge a protest and provide a great deal of evidence to back up why that person couldn't be allowed to join nor be near me. That same person joined an FC where I regularly attended events (I have since stopped attending because the FC leader allowed that person to join despite my protest and evidence provided).If someone is coming to you and making accusations against me, I hope you read this and give those accusations some very careful thought. Read between the lines because someone leaving this big of a trail of victims behind them is not as innocent nor abused as they claim. People don't abandon them or hate them or treat them badly because we're all awful or whatever stories they want to tell about us. People abandon and dislike them because they're a toxic, abusive narcissist with BPD who abuses and stalks people. They even tried to get me to help them stalk other people with accusations of those people supposedly abusing and stalking them, but I repeatedly told them to leave those people alone and to just stop targeting them in game. I did NOT participate in stalking the people they wanted me to stalk. Sadly, I did fall victim to bringing them to venues where they had been banned because they convinced me they'd been unfairly banned and I tried to get them unbanned, which happened more than once. To those people and venues, I can only offer my sincerest apologies and I hope I never fall prey to such a person again.I hope I've learned to better recognize this abusive personality type. I'm now surrounded by good and supportive friends who are also able to help me recognize when people are abusive and toxic, especially when it comes to recognizing this particular person every time they begin another cycle of reinventing themself to try to find new victims or cover their tracks as they begin stalking myself and other former victims all over again.Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you don't become their next victim. I'm not going to name names, not even in private, especially to strangers. But when you meet new people, consider their words and actions carefully. How they treat you. How they treat others. What they have to say about people around them. What they claim about people they've known in the past. How other people treat or have treated a person says a lot about them. And when there's a pattern of a lot of people supposedly all abusing, abandoning, and hating one person... well, you have to look at the common denominator.
