TMI/Opt Out Post for Route 666
May. 28th, 2026 02:47 pmThis is both a TMI and an opt-out post. If there’s anything you’d like Edward to not do (mostly referring to the vibration senses and hive mind sections, although others are also possible), please let me know. I’m also aware that a lot of people are afraid of spiders, so if you’d like to avoid having Edward be around your character in the spider body, that’s totally fine and I’m happy to accommodate.

Character name: Edward Courtenay. He has the title of Lieutenant as well, but never uses it.
Age: Twenty-three, soon to be twenty-four
Birthdate: It isn’t given in canon, but for him to be twenty-three in 1917, he would have been born in 1894.
Zodiac sign: The actor was born in April, so let’s go with that. He’s an Aries.
Height: 6'2"
Build: Tall and slender, but with some muscle. He used to run track and do field events in university (because the actor did), so he has a runner’s build.
Appearance: He’s tall and traditionally handsome and is also fairly aware of that fact. He’s not Hollywood beautiful, but definitely BBC handsome. Before being blinded, he moved gracefully and flowed from place to place. He’s been slowly regaining that in game. His hair is dark brown but has glints of red in it when he’s in the sun. His eyes used to be hazel. He also has four arms, and a prosthetic leg on the right side, where his physical leg ends just below the knee. His prosthetic is a cheetah-leg type design.
Voice: A pleasant tenor. He speaks with an educated, London-born accent (Edward appears at 2:30 in the clip).
Body hair: Not much. He has some here and there, but not enough to be noteworthy.
Scent: In canon, he probably smelled like antiseptic and whatever godawful chemicals you’d find in a WWI-era field hospital. Now he has a faint woodsy, cold scent to him, like he just got in from doing something in the woods on a cold December day.
Sigil: Swarm
Sigil placement: On his back, between his shoulder blades. He has no idea it’s there, because no one has ever mentioned it before.
Vehicle: a WWI-era British motorcycle, which has been souped up with both Tough and Spacious. That means it can pull his combination trailer-chicken-coop behind it without any issue. The motorcycle still retains a bit of sentience and will follow Edward around unless he’s told it to stay in one spot. He shares his trailer with Andrew, and has four cuccos in the coop: Sir Earl Cluckner, Lady, Duchess, and President.
Clothes: Tends to wear whatever he’s given or whatever fits. The one thing he’s devoted to is his military jacket, which is a dark khaki green. He tends to wear it open in front, since the back got ripped when his second pair of arms grew out all at once. He goes barefoot all the time to pick up the vibrations through the ground that allow him to navigate his surroundings.
Scars: He has the typical scars and blemishes on his body that come with being an active child and young man, but none particularly stand out.
The scars on his face, in contrast, are very noticeable and significant. They surround his eye sockets and stretch back over his temples, but they don’t meet between his eyes. They’re healed but it’s also clear that they aren’t long healed; the skin immediately around them is still pink and can look inflamed at times. The scars themselves look like his skin melted and then grew back as scar tissue. His eyes are also scarred over, making the pupils and irises grey and blank. He can’t focus his eyes and so they always look like they’re staring off into the distance.
It’s worth noting that, because of his blindness, Edward won’t always turn his head towards other characters when he’s talking to them. If he does, it’s a pointed, conscious choice so the other character can see his face while he’s talking.
For those curious about how he got injured, Edward has described what happened exactly twice. He will usually simply say it was a gas attack in WWI, and leave it at that. Close cr can access the full story, but only if they actually ask about it; he won’t bring it up on his own unless he has a very good reason to.
Finally, Edward loves it when people mistake him for being sighted or forget that he’s blind. No one should feel bad if their characters make that mistake, because it makes Edward’s day whenever it happens.
Piercings: None
Tattoos: None
Other bodily modifications: He’s from 1917, so no.
Vices of choice: Edward drinks as much as someone from a time period without a real concept of alcoholism might, although he doesn’t actively search it out here and as such his consumption has dropped. He will occasionally try to cadge a cigarette from Arcade, but he knows he shouldn’t, since his lungs were damaged in the same event that took his eyes.
Hygienic routine: After being in the trenches for three years, Edward is almost fanatical about keeping clean. He particularly hates having blood or mud on him, and will try to clean it off as soon as he can. In Revan, his usual routine involves washing his face and upper torso every morning, then taking a shower in the evening before going to bed.
Other daily habits: He wakes up and feeds his cuccos, collecting any eggs they’ve laid. Then he’ll take a stroll around the convoy, where he is not-so-subtly making sure everyone he knows is still there. He may also deliver some eggs to various people during his walk.
He also keeps his trailer neat and organised. He got in the habit during the war and it hasn’t left him yet.
Sleeping habits: Being somewhere relatively peaceful, where they typically don’t get attacked at night? Edward is going to take advantage of that. He tries to clock at least six or seven hours a night. He is somewhat bothered by nightmares, but those have decreased since he and Andrew shacked up and share a bed.
⚰︎ ⍢ ⌲ ⍚ MONSTER SECTION ⚰︎ ⍢ ⌲ ⍚
Monster type: Drider
Physical Features: Edward sports four arms at all times. All his arms are human and look the same, with the second pair having grown slightly below the pair he always had. The second left hand tends to be grabbier than his other hands, and Edward sometimes has difficulty controlling it. It is also the hand most likely to reach up and cover Edward’s eyes or the side of his face when he’s upset about something.
He also has a spider form, where he’s a spider centaur build. The spider body begins just below his waist, and is based on an English garden spider. It has four legs, but the right back leg has been damaged below the knee, and he wears a prosthetic for it. He is capable of walking around fairly well with three and a half legs, but he’s slower than he would be otherwise.
Edward also has a pair of mandibles, which are normally hidden inside his mouth. They retract and rest on either side of his lower jaw when not in use. He uses them for killing what he catches in his webs.
Physical Attributes:
--Vibration sense: this is the most important of all Edward’s changes, and the one he relies on the most. Because he’s blind and I’m a terrible person who refuses to get him some monster eyes, this is how he gets around. It essentially works like this: everything makes vibrations when it moves, and if both Edward and whatever is moving are touching the ground, he can feel the vibrations the other thing is making. It’s much like how Toph navigates in Avatar, right down to everything being monochrome shades of grey, white, and black.
Except! Recently Edward has started seeing colours in the vibrations. This doesn’t happen for everyone and everything; unfriendly monsters and Drifters he doesn’t know well yet still appear in monochrome. For his friends and close cr, though, he has started sensing colours in their vibrations. Everyone has a unique colour that they vibrate at, which can be seen in his CR Chart. The colours may not match canon colour associations at all (sorry, turtles!), although I do try to have some reasoning behind why people are the colours they are.
The major flaw in the vibrations is that if something is in the air and not touching the ground, Edward completely loses track of it. Flying monsters are the bane of his existence, because until they land on him, he doesn’t know where they are and can’t follow them. He’s also gotten bonked in the head by a pinecone and hit by snowballs due to this.
The extent of the vibrations is usually whatever is the most fun to rp at any given moment, but the usual range of them is around a twenty-foot radius. That can be decreased by things like snow or rain, or increased if it’s a very still, clear day or the thing moving is very big. The same applies for how much detail he can sense through them; if he’s physically close to another character or touching them, he can pick up facial expressions and subtle details. At a distance of about five feet or so, he loses facial expressions and has to rely on body language.
Because of this, he tends to be grabbier than someone from his time period would be, and will oftentimes try to touch whoever he’s talking to, particularly if they have some cr built up between them. If he’s touching your character and starts drumming his fingers on them, he’s creating vibrations so he can get a better idea of what’s going on. He may do this without thinking about it, but will stop if he’s told off or the other character pulls away.
--Web spinning: Edward makes webs! And catches stuff in them! He can also use his webbing to wrap wounds or make simple, temporary clothing for people. He bound someone up in a full web cocoon once, but that is something that would need to be requested in the future; he won’t ask anyone to do that.
--Wall climbing: when there are walls or ceilings around, Edward likes to climb up and onto them. He is prone to occasionally dropping off the ceiling to greet his friends, but he’ll usually give a warning before doing so.
--Hive mind: Edward is able to communicate through the hive mind. This works best with other members of the Swarm, where he can communicate in complete sentences, but he can also speak basic ideas into the minds of his close cr. He is cognizant that some people don’t like that, though, and if your character tells him not to or reacts poorly, he’ll stop and not do it again.
He will also inadvertently send colours associated with emotions through the hive mind, and he has a bit less control with that.
He can also use the hive mind to show what the vibrations look like to other people. He will ask before doing this, because he knows that would be terrifying to have suddenly in your head. He does this fairly frequently with Andrew, and has shown Donnie as well. If people ask, he’s happy to share.
--Ice breath: he can spit ice as a defensive measure, and also make snowballs by breathing frost breath into his hands and shaping it.
--Powerful voice: in extremely dire situations, Edward can project a wall of sound that knocks enemies back. This is not a shriek or a sound that anything organic can make; rather, it’s the sound of trench warfare. He hates doing this, because whoever he’s fighting with has to hear it too and have that sound in their head. As such, he’s only done it in situations where he didn’t feel like he had another choice.

⚰︎ ⍢ ⌲ ⍚ DIRTY SECTION ⚰︎ ⍢ ⌲ ⍚
Sexual preference: Probably technically bisexual, but with a strong preference towards men. He likes women and would be flattered if one was interested in him, but it would take a very special lady to sweep him off his (many) feet.
Where they fall on the D/s spectrum normally: He is still very much learning about sex and sexuality, so this has never really occurred to him. In his exploration thus far, though, he’s been leaning towards a service switch.
Penis size: Just this side of bigger than average. When he’s in his spider form, it’s buried in the spider body and he can’t access it.
Pubic hair: Moderate, and he keeps it controlled.
Circumcised?: Nope, that wasn’t and still isn’t much of a thing in the UK.
Underwear preference: He grew up wearing the ridiculous long johns of his era, and then nearly froze in trenches wearing said long johns. The desert areas of Revan are rough, y’all. He could easily be convinced into something more modern, and would probably really like boxer briefs.
Sleepwear preference: Used to have an entire routine and equally ridiculous ensemble for sleep. Now he sleeps topless to accommodate all his arms, and wears whatever pair of pants he tore to shit transforming into a spider that still fit well enough to serve as sleepwear.
What was their first time like?: Still working on that!
Best sexual experience: The first time he and Andrew were canoodling and suddenly a bunch of colours popped up in the vibrations.
Worst sexual experience: The time he got dragged to a brothel in France and ended up just chilling and smoking cigarettes with a prostitute for an hour. She was pretty cool, though; he liked her, and tipped well because she was so understanding.
Size preference: Not experienced enough to have any preference beyond ‘his boyfriend sized’. Edward does like the fact that he’s taller and generally bigger than Andrew, though.
Preferred method of sex: He will use all four hands at the same time and let the saucy left one go full chaos mode on all its dirtiest impulses.
Preferred frequency: He has been pent up for years and is making up for lost time. If the trailer is a’rocking, and it probably is, come back later, they’re busy.
Masturbation habits: would YOU jerk off in a trench in the middle of an active war zone? I didn’t think so! He lost the habit during the war and then spent some time so detached from himself that he was functionally impotent. Now he’s back in action but has a partner, so this isn’t really an issue.
Favorite position: He can use the vibrations to ‘see’ his partner’s face no matter what position he’s in, but bear in mind that he is very much paying attention to his partner’s face the whole time.
Favorite place to have sex: His clean, private trailer with a locking door.
Favorite kinks/sex acts: Edward is starting to realise that he likes a bit of pain with his pleasure, and loves getting his back clawed at during the act. He’s also coming around on the idea of hair pulling.
Kinks they've tried and hated: He doesn’t really understand the appeal of having his fingers sucked on, but he’ll do it if his partner likes it. He would react very poorly to being tied down and losing control of his movements. The idea of blindfolds would leave him cold, and he would get up and leave if anyone tried degradation talk.
Favorite toys: Someone please, please put the idea of using his webs for bondage into his head!
Sensitive areas: Scalp, back, his hips and legs. If he really, really trusts someone, the scars on his face and around his eyes. Be prepared for an extremely emotional reaction from that, though.
Turn-ons: clawing at his back, prolonged kissing and foreplay (he would be very into edging if he knew what that was), cuddling, touching the spider body and not being afraid of it or him when he’s in it.
Turn-offs: Negativity, degradation, really unequal power dynamics
Triggers: While Edward enjoys some level of man-handling in the bedroom, there’s a fine line where it could get too violent and trigger some war PTSD. Deliberate, excessive blood would be an immediate turn-off.
Something they want to try but haven't before: Someday, Andrew will figure out the lube situation and they’ll seal the deal.
Number one fantasy: Deep in his heart of hearts, Edward wants nothing more than a little place in the country where he and his partner can lead a quiet, domestic life.
After-sex habits: He is going to cuddle and sprawl all over the place in the bed. No one is getting up and cleaning off for at least an hour, and that includes rinsing their mouths. Edward is going to aftercare the hell out of his partner and probably show off all the pretty vibrations they made together, and then just watch them change as things get back to normal. If they both fall asleep in each other’s arms for awhile, all the better.
PLEASE NOTE: in game, Edward is very much with Andrew, and they’re going to love each other forever and get married and find a way to make little dog-spider-human hybrid babies (according to Edward). In my slutty, slutty heart, I am happy and delighted to AU him into all sorts of debauchery and sinful behaviour. If you’d like to play with any of this, just let me know, and we can work something out.
