IN CHARACTER
PHYSICAL AFFECTION: Do you really want to do this...? He'll likely be amenable to it, but he's cold and clammy but nature, so likely not recommended.
PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: Yes. Overwhelmingly yes. Even more so than the physical affection. River is a battle enthusiast through and through.
RELATIONSHIPS: He's surprisingly friendly despite how he is, so if you're able to tolerate him, then friendships are a yes. As for anything more... just ask, he's a bit mysterious on that front.
PSYCHIC & PSIONIC INFORMATION: You don't want to read this one's mind. It would likely be surprisingly easy to attempt! Once you were immersed, though, good luck getting out. It would be like trying to tread water in tar. His mind is as hungry as the rest of him, and wouldn't be likely to let you go easily.
MAGICAL INFORMATION: River boasts the power of suggestion. This has to be consciously activated rather than it being present all the time, and those with a steady strength of will would be able to resist it, but it would be a difficult thing. Think classic siren. He is also host to a dead deity, but it grants him manipulation over water and transformative abilities. Water breathing. The like.
MEDICAL INFORMATION: Needs to feed on blood and/or meat regularly, or will lapse into being feral. Capable of incredible feats of regeneration, but it will exhaust him. Needs to submerge himself in water semi-regularly or he will genuinely feel like shit.
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: There's going to be a lot here! Thalassophobia, body horror, suggestions of cannibalism, violence, human experimentation, self-harm (to a certain degree), flippant suicidal ideation.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS
VISUAL: On the taller end at about 6'2". Swimmer's build. Long, slightly wavy hair that cycles between an incredibly dark blue that is almost black and white, though it is always threaded with what appears to be moving, shifting water. Very pale. Incredibly large, lightless irises that are also a blue so dark they appear black. He will barely have any visible sclera. Beautiful, but in an... unsettling way? Speckled throughout with dark blue scales. Has Lionfish fins instead of ears, and sometimes will be sporting a similarly shaped tail; this will either replace his legs entirely, or will trail behind him when he's walking about.
AURAL: Speaks in a singsong tone of voice. Nearly always sounds on the verge of laughter. His voice is on the lighter side, musical and dulcet. The type of voice you'd expect a siren to have.
DEMEANOR: Difficult to describe. Usually smiling, or laughing. It somehow doesn't necessarily make him seem more trustworthy. Friendly to a fault. Will either adapt to social cues and situations effortlessly, or seemingly purposefully not acknowledge them. Prone to lounging, as if the whole world and its inhabitants have bored him.

OPT-IN:
SUGGESTION: Are you amenable to River using the power of suggestion on your character, and to what extent? This can range from complete enthrallment to the smallest of suggestions, so the world is our oyster.
BLOODSUCKIN': Basically what's on the tin! Can this fish suck your character's blood? Or take a bite out of them? How much is too much? Entirely up to your discretion.

Lodi
MAN OUT OF TIME | EMISSARY OF THE NINE
Lodi is a former linguist specializing in translation on an extraterrestrial scale for the Department of External Observation. His current role as the Emissary of the Nine has placed him firmly on the system's stage, as a human conduit for those his organization aimed to first contact. Lodi was a successful pilot for the Air Force until his medical discharge. He is currently located in the Last City.
First impressions
Visual
Lodi stands at an average 5'8" and some change, and boasts an average build. He has dark brown hair that is almost black, with a slight curl pattern that only presents itself when his hair starts to grow overlong. Thick-rimmed dark glasses. His eyes are normally a dark brown, but his right eye will occasionally pulse a bright, vivid aqua, with "veins" of a similar color branching out from said eye. Friendly, warm smile. His posture normally leans relaxed, but he keeps his back straight. Walks with a purpose.
Aural
Lodi's voice is warm, and friendly. Has a detectable Midwestern accent, and the slang he uses will reflect that. Largely uses lax, casual language, but prefers to refer to others formally – this presents itself in fastidious use of titles such as sir, ma'am, etcetera. Leans more towards being polite than otherwise. Speaks intelligently, but will use filler words when trying to puzzle something out.
Fashion
Unfortunately forced to wear his own set of Aionian robes as a direct result of his clothing getting singed to an unrecognizable degree. It largely features muted reds and maroons, and is armored for general safety rather than personal expression. In reality, his only defining marker of personal style are his glasses, which are thick-rimmed and a classic style for his original time period.
Origin
Born Louis Yero to a couple in Wisconsin, Lodi lived a relatively standard life for a man in a United States adjacent to ours up until the 1960’s. He flew as a pilot for the Air Force until he was forced to retire via medical discharge for his deteriorating eyesight. He was flanked by friends and family, but had no lasting romantic relationships to speak of. After his discharge, he floated listlessly until he could secure a position as a translational linguist at the Department of External Observation, an organization that was dedicated to ensuring America achieved first contact.
It was a fulfilling role for him, and one he applied himself dutifully to… up until a certain point. An abnormal item that the DEO had recovered, a rotary phone with a cut phone line, rung in a tune that only a scant few could evidently hear. Louis Yero, certain that if he did not answer this call would come to regret it for the rest of his life, picked up the phone.
He was displaced across time and space from the Space Age to the City Age, long after the arrival of the Traveler—an interstellar embodiment of Light and immense power that had arrived to herald humanity into their Golden Age, and had terraformed a multitude of planets across the known Solar System—and the Collapse. The Collapse was an apocalyptic scenario hearkened by the arrival of the forces of Darkness, which changed the landscape of humanity’s achievements and brought their glittering, technological spires crashing down. In the wake of this Collapse, the majority of the human population and nearly every known city would be destroyed. Nearly all information prior to the Collapse would ultimately be lost.
Having been called to the current time by the Nine, living embodiments of the celestial bodies, Lodi would find himself adrift and entirely out of his element. It was only after a relatively short adjustment period that he would realize why he was called: the Nine required a human conduit to commune and interact with the people of the System. He was to become their mouthpiece.

IN CHARACTER
PHYSICAL AFFECTION: Eight times out of ten, this is going to be a yes. Lodi is a personable guy who wants to be your friend, and physical contact is a surefire way to build at least a sense of rapport.
PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: Lodi is a pacifist for the most part, so this will likely have to be by request. It would take a considerable amount of duress for him to budge on this, or an unavoidable circumstance. Having physical violence done to him, though, is a different matter! Just ask!
RELATIONSHIPS: Platonic relationships are largely a yes given how he is. Anything more than that, it will have to be with permission.
PSYCHIC & PSIONIC INFORMATION: If a mind read is attempted, there is the likelihood the individual will be met with an immense amount of pushback. The force will be so oppressive as to border on gravitational. If one is able to push even past that, they would be met with overlapping, layered voices who would most likely be shouting in outrage. Not recommended! On his end, he can occasionally tap into foresight, but it is entirely randomized and the rhyme or reason for how far forward it is is indiscernible.
MAGICAL INFORMATION: He's playing host to the walking, talking planetary bodies. Or, at least, a number of them. They will try to speak through him in a manner of possession. Sometimes, the area immediately around him will be turned to platinum.
MEDICAL INFORMATION: Needs his glasses. His right eye will pulse an unearthly blue, but the sight has been unaffected. On a molecular level, he is two steps to the right of "human".
OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: Ironically, eye horror. Possession, so loss of bodily autonomy.
