Misc: When I Became as Join Fandoms
September 15 is the 7th Anniversary of My DeviantArt Account and Art Life on Social Media! But it’s late for now…
When I join fandom at TV, video games, and series. As a story of truth.
Tumblr media
Active Fandoms Mixels - Before I created an account on DeviantArt, I watched Log Loss in March 2015, then I watched more episodes on YouTube. I looked at drawings made by the person who created Sharkitty and deactivated the account after canceling the show on DeviantArt, then I looked at the drawings which were amazing looking horror and spooky as I liked it while I chose for my favorite character is Dribbal. I became a fan of Mixels when I created my account on DeviantArt when I was 13 already.
Luigi's Mansion Series - On November 2019, I looks the arts as the person who has an accounts on DeviantArt and Tumblr as possibly former fan of Mixels when I looked drawings before I created an account, also I looks fanfiction of series with headcanon as I officially love that as before and during at my birthday as my favorite characters are Dr. Potter, Steward, and Morty. I became a fan of Luigi's Mansion Series while I watched videos on YouTube for the whole story mode and made my fanfiction of that.
Cuphead Series - After I looked arts of Bendy Series on DeviantArt and Tumblr, I looks comics on DeviantArt in Late November/Early December 2018 which story of two of characters with heartwarming relationship like a parent and child on game as headcanon which started favorite to two characters are Dr. Kahl and his Robot and fan comic story become my favorite as it is called Dr. Kahl's Journal. I became a fan of the Cuphead Series while I had the idea of headcanon and looked at drawings on DeviantArt.
Bendy Series - I listened and watched Build My Machine by Will/DAGames at Late February/Early March 2017, I listened to the voices of employees of JDS even Will who voiced Grant Cohen which he's my favorite along with Edgar and Wally Frank. I became a fan of the Bendy Series while I listened to fan songs by Bendy Fans and audio logs on YouTube.
Balan Wonderworld - I noticed a drawing on DeviantArt in April 2021 as it was made by a person as I already know and became my favorite when after I watched it on YouTube, name is Cal Suresh. I listened soundtracks of game are amazing which I become love of a music. I became a fan of Balan Wonderworld while I listened to songs to draw and write.
No Straight Roads - I'm officially surprised to look at many art for the 1st anniversary of the game on Twitter. Eventually in November 2021, I looked at arts and stories on Tumblr from one of my social media friends, then I watched videos about NSR voice actors hanging out and playing games. During livestream, the fans draw characters doing same for their voice actors which I officially liked that especially Zul (Neon J and 1010 Voice Actor) doing Moose God and going insane anytime as quickly caught to Christmas Edition to Neon J and 1010 made a reindeer soldiers, it made me highly excited to them as became favorite. I became a fan of No Straight Roads while I listened to songs and videos as I drew and wrote about Neon J and 1010, and looked at the drawings.
Brawl Stars - Downloaded it during Season 11: Biodome to try it but uninstalled it in one week as I had all of the Rare Brawlers and almost Super Rare Brawlers. In December 2022, I reinstalled it for the anniversary of the game to free Gray and free skin to Shelly while one of my social media friends told me about Brawl Stars which drained my boredom to happiness while I watched videos by official Brawl Stars on YouTube as my favorite is Mortis, the most played of the game. I became a fan of Brawl Stars while I watched videos about Season 3 as lore, listened to the songs, and looked at drawings on Twitter as I started to get an idea and I started playing the game everyday.
Welcome Home - I quickly noticed the arts on Twitter at Late March 2023/Early April 2023 which made me to get idea as my favorite is Howdy Pillar, I looks at Frank and Eddie in love as it officially by the creator, then I looks some art of Frank and Eddie love to Howdy as start poly love relationship by some fans as it became my favorite ship. I became a fan of Welcome Home while I looked at art for my favorite character and ship and looked at the website.
Inactive Fandoms My Singing Monsters Series - I watched Tribal Island Trailer in January 2016 as I downloaded it as I became a fan of My Singing Monsters Series, then I've many ideas about monsters after creating my account. But November 2020, I got bored and ran out of ideas, I started to be inactive as I never used to when I’ve got to focus on old fandoms as I enjoy My Singing Monsters Series as I listen to the songs.
Object Shows - I watched BFDI and Inanimate Insanity when I was a child as I became a fan of Object Shows in January 2018 to draw my characters as my own show. But January 2021, I started to be inactive as I never used to when I’m back to Mixels to make the story and characters as I enjoy Object Shows.
Just Shapes and Beats - I watched it on YouTube in June 2018 as I listened to the songs from past years to look level in the game, then I became a fan of Just Shapes and Beats in July 2019 to draw characters based on songs and levels as bosses. But October 2020, I started to be inactive as I never used to when I ran out of an idea and focused on Mixels as reactive as I enjoy Just Shapes and Beats.
Cookie Run Series - I watched it on YouTube and then downloaded while I looked at drawings at DeviantArt and Tumblr in February 2021 as I was playing it 2021 to Early 2023 which made me grow bored as I ran out of ideas for other fandoms. But March 2023, I’m already bored of it as a big problem with my phone, I uninstalled it for large memories and started to be inactive as I never used to when I finally escaped from boredom as I played Brawl Stars and focused on writing fanfiction as I enjoy Cookie Run.

Cuphead? (Fandom Blorbo asks)
blorbo (favorite character, character I think about the most)
Probably Cuphead, for similar reasons as Gumball. (I'm always putting main characters for this one, wonder why.) Cala Maria is also up there because like...look at her.
scrunkly (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped)
Weepy/Ollie. I feel bad shooting at him when he just cries at you the whole time. But I couldn't beat the level with that raddish added on if you don't shoot, so sorry Weepy.
scrimblo bimblo (underrated/underappreciated fave)
Dr. Kahl's Robot. People only talk about how hard his boss fight is (Which I'm sure it is, I haven't gotten there yet. I'm stuck on Cagney.) But after reading the Dr Kahl's Journal comic I've gained a new appreciation for the character. (Plus, a robot with a soul? That's always fun.)
glup shitto (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week)
The Four Mel's Barbershop Quartet. I want more of them, we need more barbershop songs in this game. Also, Cuppet. I love that thing way more than I should. I was so happy when Cuphead brought it out in the Cuphead: A Mountain of Trouble novel. I just know that he would use that puppet to just annoy everybody. (He probably begged Djimmi for it after the game was over.)
poor little meow meow (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave)
I guess The Devil and King Dice? Not because I want them redeemed, but because they're so camp evil that you can't help but love them. Like a classic disney villain. We haven't had many camp villains in a while and they made me realize how much I missed them. (I don't know if they count as "poor little meow meow" though, but they're the best options I can think of. I'm leaving them here anyways.)
horse plinko (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason)
I do love some good Mugman angst. Since his brother did sell his soul for money and that isn't really touched on in the game. I imagine he would have some feelings about it. Cuphead angst is great too as he'd probably feel bad for getting them into this whole mess in the first place.
eeby deeby (character I would send to superhell)
I would say The Devil, but he would probably like it.

*dead because of blushing*
(OK FAMS HI
Oke just a little side note before we begin, I don’t mean to offend ANY German people in this! This is how they made him talk in the game, so I’m just following his character.
Also, YES. I DO SHIP IT THANK YOU VERY MUCH. You can take this platonically or not, but I did add one little shippy scene in this 🚢
Serioulsy, Lee!Werner is so cute to mehdjsndhskbd I CANT EVEN??? I’m a mess thinking about it XD
I hope you enjoy!~
((tem sez: this is yet aNOTHER BEAUTIFUL BLESSING BY @kittychanaskthecrew​ who you should go follow rn if you aren’t already!!! *w* ))
Cheer Up, Won’t You?
Werner put his face in his hands as he sobbed uncontrollably. He hadn’t cried in a few years. Tears were streaming down his face, each little high pitched squeak and hiccup making him even more drained. People around the isles had been spreading rumors about the rat. “Working in a small room on Rube Goldberg projects won’t get him anywhere.” Some would say. “No, he went crazy years ago! The war was too much for him, so he popped a screw. He makes little trinkets to calm himself down from the war.”
Even the smallest of words can get to the toughest of people, Werner had found. He could feel his heart actually ache, his small yet lanky body trembling. Why was he crying so hard? He didn’t have to be such a baby over a few harmless rumors, right? Right? He had managed to bottle everything up for years after the war. Those weren’t little trinkets in the war- oh no. They were giant missiles- huge tanks- ginormous aircrafts, and all were made in under a week. He knew all of this very well, so why is it suddenly hurting so bad? Every rumor seemed to bring back a familiar memory from the war.
Suddenly, he heard someone knock on his door. Oh dear god, it couldn’t be. Not right now. With the the perfect “rat-a-tat-tat!” Humming at his door, he felt almost 100% sure it was who he thought it was. Werner got up slowly, wiping his eyes with a little squeak. He winced as he felt the pounding feeling rush back to his head the second he stood up. Everything was spinning.
When Werner opened up the door, he saw none other than the well composed Dr. Kahl. He was as prim and neat as ever, the only thing seemingly “untidy” about him being his long, curly hair that was puffing out at the sides of his head. “Oh, ahm, hello, Kahl.” Werner said, his voice soft and raw from crying. Dr. Kahl smiled. “Why hello, Werner! I was just stopping by to,” Suddenly, Dr. Kahl’s face fell. He immediately went from a slightly self centered know-it-all, to a concerned and shocked man.
“What on earth has happened to you?” Kahl said, almost trembling when he saw the red in Werner’s eyes. He immediately knew that Werner had been crying, crying very hard nonetheless. “I… did nacht get much schleep last night?” Werner said, grinning a little. Dr. Kahl chuckled as they walked inside, Werner telling him everything.
“Ah, I see,” Dr. Kahl smiled. “We should have to find a way to make you smile, now shouldn’t we?” Werner’s face visibly became red. “Now, now, I don’t sink zis is necezaree-“ “Nonsense!” Kahl butted in. “You are feeling sad, and as one of your closest and fondest friends, I shall help you along!”
Over the course of two hours, Dr. Kahl has tried everything that he knew to make Werner happy. Trying his most bori- funny jokes, showing him a book on mechanics, and even letting him see a few blueprints for one of his upcoming machines. Unfortunately for the both of them, nothing would work. Werner, eventually driving himself to tears again, had to step outside for a moment to compose himself. Though this upset his friend that he had to do this, it left him to look at his amazing room.
It may not seem like much to the average eye, it was incredible to Dr. Kahl. Blueprints, equipment, and most of all, the books. There were books everywhere! Manuals, guides, and even some of Werner’s own plans. Through all of the books that caught Dr. Kahl’s eye, one in particular really got his attention. It was a small notebook, the cover worn down and the pages dulled by pencil lead. Dr. Kahl knew that he shouldn’t look through something like this, he almost knew that he NEEDED to. (For science, of course!)
As he flipped through the pages, he saw amazing sketches of anatomy of different creatures. Mr. Kahl immediately decided that Werner also loved to sketch, as he was terrific at it. Though the more he searched through the journal, he realized that there was a pattern being repeated. Tickling. The curious doctor was suddenly interested, immediately flipping through page after page of tickling. Some pages were of Werner wondering why he couldn’t say the word “tickle”, and others where he was practically screaming out to be tickled.
Dr. Kahl then realized that Werner had wanted something like this to happen to him for a long time. He finally knew what would cheer the poor fella up. Sure, it’s childish and a bit embarrassing, but it would work.
Werner came back into the room, eyes red again. “Zoree, I didn’t mean to do zat. I have not cried in a vile now.” Dr. Kahl didn’t say anything, just patted the bed beside him. Werner obliged, sitting down next to him. A squeeze to his side made Werner jump, his eyes widening. “Vait!-“ but that’s all he could say before he was pushed down onto the bed, immediately attacked with tickles.
“What a very nice laugh you have, Werner!” Dr. Kahl teaser, scratching along Werner’s collarbone, another hand creeping up along his side. “EEhehEHEHheheheE! zTAhPpiT!” He squealed, high pitched giggles ringing out through the air. “Oh, but you wouldn’t want that, would you? A little notebook on your shelf told me otherwise.” The doctor winked. “Now, stay still! I’m trying to examine your body!” He said, running his fingers under his knees and admiring the squeal. “VhyhyhyYHYhyhYYHY DIHIHID YOohooU reHEHEAd ZAHAHAhahaAT?!” He screeched, feet pounding on the ground.
Werner was kicking and squealing, his eyes back to a white tint and his face with a grin. When Dr. Kahl reached the rat’s stomach, he paused, clawing his hand right above the sensitive spot. Poor Werner squealed and squirmed our of anticipation. “Eeeeek!” He whimpered. Suddenly, two fingers danced across his stomach, making it quiver and jump. Dr. Kahl chuckled. “You really do have a sensitive stomach, don’t you? You just love it when I tickle, tickle, tickle there!” He said, and dug all of his fingers into his stomach.
Werner absolutely screamed with delight, kicking and thrashing about. “nnyaaaAAAAHAHAHAHAHEHEHEHEHE! ES KITZELT! ES KITZELT! Ich kann nicht aufhören zu lache!” He screeched, his high pitched voice going up an octave. “And I also know from your little journal,” Dr. Kahl grinned, pinning Werner’s arms above his head. “That you like to be tickled, just. Like. This.” He suddenly began to blow raspberries all over his stomach, neck, and collarbone.
Everything started to feel so tingly on Werner. He was thrashing and squealing, giggling and snorting. Even though he would never admit it, it was quite obvious that he liked it. But when he felt something nibbling at the extremely sensitive skin on his ears, his laugher went silent.
Dr. Kahl immediately stopped as Werner curled up into a little ball, no longer the tough guy or the depressed guy, but a tiny, cute lee that wants so much to be tickled. He was still giggling and gasping from the tickles, clutching his sides. He looked adorable spread out on the bed, his face less splotchy, but now replaced with a red blush on his face. He finally got the courage to look up at Kahl, who was currently gazing down at him, chuckling. “V-vhy did you stop, Kahl?” Werner giggled, curling up again.
“Well why wouldn’t I?” Dr. Kahl said, putting a finger to his chin as if he were pretending to think. “Obviously, you didn’t like it.” Werner sat up. “Yes I did!- I mean-“ he covered his mouth. “Well, whatever did you want me to do again? I completely forgot.” That idiot. Werner mumbled something under his breath. “Er ist so ein Idiot.” Dr. Kahl perked up. “So what would it be that you want?” “Kitzel Mich.” “What was that?” “Kitzel me.” Dr. Kahl grinned. “What was tha-“ “Tickle me!” Werner shouted. Dr. Kahl kissed him on the forehead, making him jump and blush very hard. “V-vhat?” He said, giggling nervously as Kahl looked over him with wiggling fingers.
The seemingly tough, yet sad soldier had turned into a cute, giggly mess that day, yet the composed near freak had turned playful and joyous. Now, thankfully for Werner, he gets tickled more than once a week because of Kahl.
They both love switching their roles up a little bit.

Pentagon offers payment to Afghanistan family’s survivors after botched US airstrike
The Pentagon has offered condolence payments to the surviving family members of the 10 innocent civilians, including seven children, who were accidentally killed in a U.S. airstrike in Afghanistan in late August. 
The Aug. 29 strike was intended to kill ISIS-K-affiliated terrorists in retaliation for a terrorist bombing three days earlier that killed 13 U.S. service members and dozens of Afghans at the Kabul airport amid the chaotic Biden administration withdrawal of U.S. troops from the Asian nation. 
The deaths of the civilians were a “tragic mistake,” Dr. Colin Kahl, undersecretary of defense for policy, said Thursday, according to a Pentagon statement from press secretary John Kirby.
Kahl reiterated that victim Zemari Ahmadi and the others who were killed were innocent victims who “bore no blame and were not affiliated with ISIS-K or threats to U.S. forces,” the statement added. 
FORMER OBAMA JOINT CHIEFS OF STAFF CHAIRMAN CALLS FOR ACCOUNTABILITY FOR BOTCHED DRONE STRIKE
The amount of the payment offer was not specified. 
In a virtual meeting with Kahl, Dr. Steven Kwon, founder and president of Nutrition & Education International (NEI), spoke about Ahmadi’s years-long work with the organization during which Ahmadi provided “care and lifesaving assistance” to victims in the war-torn country. 
Tumblr media

The Defense Department admitted last month Ahmadi had no connection to ISIS-K after previously saying the opposite. 
The Biden administration admitted the mistake only after media reports questioned if those killed were actually terrorist-affiliated, as military officials had initially claimed. 
Kwon said NEI has pledged to “honor the memory of Mr. Ahmadi and his family members and others who were killed in the strike.”
“Nothing can bring Zemari or these other precious people back, but we appreciate the opportunity to discuss these devastating losses in detail with senior Defense Department officials,” Kwon said in a statement, according to The Wall Street Journal. “We hope they will act urgently to get surviving family members and impacted NEI employees to safety and to help them to rebuild their lives.”
CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP
The strike also called into question the U.S. ability to conduct targeted strikes without the added use of military intelligence capabilities on the ground, the Journal reported. 
“This is a horrible tragedy of war and it’s heart-wrenching and we are committed to being fully transparent about this incident,” Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley said in September after previously calling the operation a “righteous strike.” 
The Pentagon is also working to help the surviving family members relocate to the U.S. 
Fox News’ Lucas Y. Tomlinson contributed to this report.

Worldbuilding in A Game of Thrones: Psychology of Yahaman
Tumblr media

Dr. Nafees Khan and Dr. Mindy Spearman
Worldbuilding in A Game of Thrones
March 6, 2017
Sociology Build
Overview of Yahaman Psychology:
The psychology of the Yahamish people can be broken down into psychology built from the Yahaman social structure and psychology built from external, global causes. These global causes are outside of the control of the Yahamish social structure and can be largely be described as biological or mystical factors that can influence one’s psychology. For the Yahamish, there are only two major global factors that can influence psychology. Among the Yahamish upper class, generations of intermarrying between select military families has led to biological defects to be semi-common. While these defects are not widespread, they are common enough that the military has begun labeling impaired individuals as ‘ini-van’ or “too far gone” in Yi-Tish dialect. In the past, Yahaman had its share of ini-van leaders, however in more recent years Military heads have done their best to keep the impaired out of leadership positions. The other major global factor in Yahaman is the mysticism associated with the Whisperers. Many Yahamish have stories about how those who venture into the mountains return deranged. In Yahamish history, Winla, a scholar working under the Yahamish military, led an expedition into the mountains to study the Whisperers and they’re way of life. Winla returned mad and was sentenced to death shortly after making his way back to Yillan. The psychological effects of the mountainside are most commonly described as insanity. There are reports of individuals experiencing hallucinations and hearing voices as well. Often the effected individuals claim to have met or seen the “stone god” and have been known to whisper into rocks in a way similar to the rituals the Whisperers perform.
Gender Identity and the Yahmish People:
The gender norms in Yahaman can be categorized by three different groups of people. There are the Whisperers, which largely do not have any formal definition of gender and have been described as an androgynous society. There are the Yahamish lower class, which follow strict binary gender roles, where men are expected to manage farms and conduct trade and women are expected to care for children. Additionally, there are the Yahamish upper class, which has developed a more gender fluid social structure over the years.
Gender Identity and the Whisperers:
Most of what is known about the whisperers is derived from Winla’s texts. In his studies, Winla describes how the whisperers live a very strict “the strong survive; the strongest lead” lifestyle. In Whisperer society, there are no defined genders or gender roles. The weaker people, often the elderly or the young, will tend to the more mundane matters in life, such as cooking or taking care of newborns. The stronger people, which are comprised of both men and women, hunt and lead. Winla describes in his journals how both men and women led the tribal people and how new leaders would assume power by physically challenging the current leader. As a result, few leaders ruled for very long during Winla’s stay. Winla described the society as “the Dothraki, where the women can become Kahl.”
Gender Identity and the Yahaman Lower Class:
The social system of the Yahaman lower class is governed almost entirely by loyalty to family. As a result, men and women are expected to always act in the best interest of the family. Men are expected to lead and organize and women are expected to produce and care for children. The head of a Yahamish household is often the oldest male. The house head will dictate how everyone else in the family behaves and will make decisions for the younger family members. Women are told who to marry and are given away as bargaining chips to strengthen relations between families. Men are built to lead from birth and are trained to manage crops or trade. A man is expected to marry solely for the benefit of the family and is expected to seek out a wife that will benefit the family in some way. A woman is considered a man’s responsibility, and men are expected to have control over what their wives, sisters, and daughters do or say. In this way, the Yahaman lower class have very strict and restrictive gender norms. Anyone found outside of these norms is considered disgraceful or shameful to the family. This makes life very difficult for women and for anyone who lies outside of the traditional gender binary.
Gender Identity and the Yahaman Upper Class:
The Yahaman upper class has a unique perspective on gender and gender identity. Despite the still dominating influence of family and family loyalty, the upper class have much looser definitions of gender, gender roles, and gender norms. Centuries of lavish wealth has allowed the very rich to experience extensive amounts of down time. In this free time, new art and cultural thoughts have developed among the upper class. Among these new thoughts came a development in beliefs surrounding gender, gender roles, and gender identity. Modern upper Yahaman views on gender are largely derived from these new and developing beliefs in combination with the ever present sense of family and family loyalty. Specifically, the military families describe three different genders. As with the Yahaman lower class, those born biologically male are expected to maintain a male identity. The men of the Yahaman upper class lead, much like they do in the Yahaman lower class. Those born biologically female, however, are known to take on two different gender identities. There are those who identify as female and generally take on the stereotypical female roles in upper class society. Then there are those who are biologically female, but identify as male. In the Yahaman society, these individuals are referred to as ‘illina,’ meaning “trapped” in Yi-Tish. The illina are viewed as those who were meant to lead, but were given a female body. While the military often reserves the highest authority positions for those born biologically male, the illina are still permitted to take office in the military. Often high ranking male officials will look to marry illina, as they view it as a way to strengthen the masculinity in their bloodline. Few illina have also been known to lead their respective households. The military families permit this as a way to allow those stuck in a feminine form to exercise their masculinity. The Yahamish people have yet to define similar genders for those who are born male, but identify as female. Men who claim that they are illina are often shunned as perverted and lazy. The Yahamish believe that a man who claims to be a woman is only trying to avoid the responsibilities of a male. Likewise, the Yahamish do not believe in a neutral gender, as they feel that every member in Yahamish society should fill some roll to support the family and that a person must “raise or lead,” referring to the Yahaman roles of men and women respectively.
 CHARACTER CREATION:
Linayi
Linayi is a girl around the age of 14, living in the city of Kenrin. She lives in an abnormally small household for a Yahamish, consisting of only her, her younger brother, Kethi, at the age of 6, and her father, Rinitt, a merchant who transports rice from Kenrin to Yillan along the Right Leg. Linayi’s mother, Villa, died two years ago to fever, leaving Linayi to care for her younger brother while her father is between cities.
In upper Yahamish society, Linayi would be described as an illina, that is to say Linayi was born with a very masculine personality within a female body. However, since Linayi is a part of lower class Yahaman, she is expected to fill the “woman” role in her family. As such, Linayi is considered her father and her brother’s property. This has led to a lot of struggle in Linayi’s life, as her brother is often held in higher esteem than herself, despite the fact that Linayi provides for her family more than her brother ever could.
Linayi’s Encounter:
During one of her father’s long voyages to the capital of Yillan, Linayi found herself in the presence of a young military boy in the alleyways of Kenrin. She stumbled across the child on her way home from the markets, where she had bought rice for her and her brother. The boy was around the age of 10 and wore an elaborate silk garb. He looked terribly lost and was wandering the streets of Kenrin alone. Linayi asked for the boy’s name and the boy revealed himself to be Thettinan, the youngest member of the military family that was stationed at Kenrin to oversee trade. Thettinan described how his family usually oversaw trade at the ports of Yillan, but that they were recently re-stationed in Kenrin. He mentioned that he had wished to explore Kenrin, but that his mother had not permitted it, so he snuck out.
Linayi took the boy back to her house, where he joined her and her brother in dining on dishes of rice and fish. Thettinan became quick friends with Linayi and her brother Kethi. Talking with Thettinan gave Linayi a taste of the military life. Linayi described how she wished she could live like Thettinan and how she longed to lead a more meaningful life. It was here that Thettinan described the concept of the illina and how women could lead among the military.
This thought stuck with Linayi and would largely shape her worldview as she grew older.
Linayi’s Psychology:
Linayi is a character that is under several psychological pressures. She is born to a family that is smaller than most and as a result gets ridiculed for having a small or “weak” family. This stems from the Yahamish view that family means everything. She is also a very masculine character, despite the fact that she is biologically female. She has a strong personality and often rejects the common conceptions that a woman is only meant to cook and care for children. Her resistance to the status quo is only strengthened by her meeting with Thettinan and his description of the illina. She personally identifies herself as Illina, though she mostly keeps it to herself, as she knows the concept is considered disgraceful in lower class society. Her father’s absence and her mother’s death have also strengthened Linayi’s sense of independence. She learned from an early age that the world is not fair and that she has to take matters into her own hands to survive. As a result of her parent’s absence, she has also developed leadership skills very early on, as she is tasked with keeping her brother fed and safe. Her relationship with her brother is strange in that in public, she knows that she is her brother’s property, but in private, she and her brother get along wonderfully and her brother often recognizes her as being “in charge.” Due to the death of his wife and his frequent absence, Linayi’s father can be described as neglectful. As a result, Linayi has yet to develop a meaningful relationship between her and her father.
