CONTACT METHOD: yarnzipan @ plurk / yarnzipan @ discord
THREAD-JACKING: If threadjacking, please make sure you are 1. also engaging with the main post itself and not just interacting as part of another conversation and 2. if you are threadjacking negatively, I would prefer to be contacted beforehand. Thanks!
FOURTH WALLING / CANON PUNCTURE: No thank you for fictional, no thank you for recognizing him as anyone else but I am all for other canon mates showing up and letting them know about earlier or later events.
BACKTAGGING: I live in them, though if they're too old or the thread seems to have died down, I may contact you about it or wrap it up with a 'conclusion' so we can both move forward. Also, if we're in a thread and we want to start a new thread, I'd appreciate if we can determine the *rough* shape of how things left off last time through a quick conversation.
AVOIDED TOPICS: While I have no problem with the topic of gaslighting being raised, I would ask that if your character is going to gaslight mine or if there is a serious misunderstanding of the events between the two characters ICly, that we have a conversation to make sure that we're OOCly on the same page and that the gaslighting (or distinctly inaccurate view of events) is clearly intentional and understood as such.
PREFERRED GENDER PRONOUN: she/they/her are all good

Name: Vulkan (like Madonna)
Age: 12,000 or so but it's rude to ask a primarch his age (mostly because the warp makes it weird)
Hometown: Hesiod, on Nocturne

Physical Description: Incredibly physically imposing, Vulkan is both twelve feet tall and made of muscle. With his coal-black skin and glowing red eyes, he can look absolutely terrifying (and is, if he's angry).
Audio Description: As you might expect from a giant dude, he has a deep resounding voice, with a faint accent that's hard to place.
Scent Description: Metal and char and mineral scent.
Psychic Description: He can come off as solid as earth, hot as magma, or Not There.
General Vibes: Quiet, thoughtful, warm. Vulkan is known for his gentleness, his kindness, and his concern for the helpless. He does what he can not to be intimidating or to scare others and he considers his purpose in life to protect and care for those around him, especially those weaker than him. He's a bit of a closed book (or maybe a puzzle box) but what he does share is earnest, honest, and caring. Having grown up in a small town among a small community, he tends towards practicality and humility over process and pomp. For all that he's not much for airs, he does have intense feelings about crafting and taking pride in one's creations and can get a touch cranky when he feels craftsmanship is being disrespected.

Abilities:

• a primarch of the Imperium of Mankind, and physically strongest of all his brothers. TLDR giant super dooper soldier demigod that, in his case, is also about 12-13 feet tall and made entirely of an incredible amount of muscle. You know those robots from Pacific Rim? He could lift one.
  
• CAN HE FIX IT? Yes he can! Can he build it? Yes he can. He is the master of the forge, artificer supreme, and he's made *hundreds* of ridiculously ludicrous artifacts and tech, including stuff that the AdMech still can't figure out; if it's orange in an MMORPG, he made it or can learn how to make it.
  
  • Gear: He has brought with him only one hammer, ViaDeinceps: like Doomtremor, it can absorb the kinetic energy from the blows and reuse it either in battle... or in a much more controlled manner as a high-tech tool for much more delicate work. The hammer is extremely ornate, with an etched design of Macragge's capital alongside Greek-style columns and a scroll with its name. You have never seen a prettier hammer.
• Even aside of being a primarch, he's a tough as hell just from being raised on a Death World: he's completely impervious to heat/flame and radiation, and on top of that? He's a Perpetual so even if you do kill him, he respawns basically immediately. Of course, nothing in that whole deal preserves his sanity or saves him from the pain of such an experience but he will be back.
  
• He's got infrared vision (Firesight) as well as an affinity for fire that helps him to work with it to create his super special items.
  
• While he's certainly got the aura of a primarch, he can 'mask' this somewhat, making himself blend into the background; he will generally be doing this. This seems to be connected to an ability to connect with the landscape he's in, become one with the place he's in. Makes sense for a guy who's been thrown into an active volcano, after all.
  
• He's a prophet! I don't see this one coming up much but... he does have some foresight, enough to have essentially written a book of prophecies and left them for his sons. Also pretty good at sensing vibes.
  
• He's able to 'read' the earth of a planet, getting a feel for the environment, the mineral deposites, and the general 'feel' of how the world is. If it's being damaged or 'attacked', he gets that right through his feet even in armor.
