MORS VINCIT OMNIA
GUIDELINES
Please adhere to general RPC etiquette while you’re here. You can call me Roscoe, I prefer she/they pronouns, and I am 21+. I can't promise my activity here will be consistent, but I'll do my best to balance it with my priorities elsewhere.

First things first: no minors. As said above, I'm over 21, and I prefer to only interact and write with other adults. If there is no age listed on your about page (an age range, e.g. 18+, would work just as well) I will be forced to assume you're a minor and will refrain from following.
I’m also mutuals-only, so check if I’m following you before interacting! Personals can follow should they choose to, but I operate on a ‘one strike, you’re out’ policy. Reblog my content or spam my activity feed and you will be blocked.
On that note: please assume that most posts here are not intended to be reblogged unless you are actively involved in them or have gotten prior permission. This goes for headcanons, drabbles, OOC posts, dash games and Picrews. Ask memes and musing/aesthetic posts are exempt from this! Reblog those all you like, but don't use me as a resource specifically for them.
Dash commentaries, IC status posts, and other such posts are always available for interaction. As long as it's not a thread or @'d starter, you're free to respond if you wish.
Drama will not be tolerated, nor will any form of discriminatory behaviour. Callouts will only be given my attention if they actually highlight harmful actions or individuals, and not just because two friends had a falling-out and don’t understand what ‘gaslighting’ means. I reserve the right to unfollow at any time and without explanation. I will use the softblock-unblock system to break mutuals, and I ask that you do the same.
I have no triggers myself, but all of the ‘standard’ or common ones will be tagged. These will be standard tags in the "[trigger] tw" format.
Just because Ronald is casual with his sex life does not mean that every person he flirts with is a potential ship partner. I still require chemistry and OOC communication before any of that will be considered, though unreciprocated crushes/attraction are allowed. NSFW will likely be present, I will not be restricting it to "Sinday" as that's a practice I've come to despise, and it will all be appropriately tagged/placed under a readmore.
Due to the nature of his character, there will likely be frequent mentions/recurring themes of death, suicide, and using unhealthy coping mechanisms to deal with his mental health. If these are upsetting or triggering, I would advise you not to follow. They will be tagged, but I'm telling you now that there's no way to interact without those themes coming up in some way. They're pretty relevant to the character.
Finally, mun =/= muse and never will. If an IC interaction goes south or ends in conflict, do not assume that Ronald’s opinion of the character is a mirror of my opinion of you.
About
Name: Ronald Knox
Age: Early-mid twenties at the time of death
Height: 175cm, 5'9"
Gender: Cis man, he/him
Sexuality: Bisexual with a heavy preference for women
Character strengths: Confident, can adapt to situations quickly, determined, efficient, sociable and considers himself easy to get along with.
Character weaknesses: Cocky to the point of carelessness, reckless, easily distracted, judgmental, struggles to keep to pre-established schedules.
As a junior Collections officer at the London Dispatch, Ronald has built quite the nice life for himself. He’s a popular social butterfly, spending most of his evenings indulging in the intimate company of others, and despite some slight issues with punctuality he’s careful never to let his work intrude into overtime. As with all reapers, he committed suicide, though he’d rather die (again) than go into detail into how, or why, or anything else related to that time. All people need to know is that he did do it, and thus has been thrown into a new existence where he must collect the souls of those destined to die. Such work is usually focused within the confines of London, but he'll go wherever he's needed.
His scythe, which he’s had specially modified to suit his tastes, has been designed to look like a lawnmower. it’s loud, attention-grabbing, causes much more of a mess than necessary, and the flurry of blades at the bottom mean he gets the actual collection over and done with pretty quick. This is always on hand, along with several small knives stashed on his person for self-defense.
