Introduction: hi I'm that guy you may or may not know that likes final fantasy ix a lot & 2023 is gonna be my YEAR. forgive me a little bit of intermittent signal, many life changes rn

Character Name: Novae "Novvy" Rex aka Dreamer Ballade
Canon: original character from a wip magical girl game project named Star Brides

About:
consider
an adorable, plucky little girl with a distinct theme animal (🐇) and a tumultuous past,
whose struggling single dad in his 30s abruptly awakens as a Dreamer.

Novvy Rex is that guy. A renowned star ballerina... 10+ years out of practice. current hostage of the grind. life irreparably altered when a twist of fate un-buried his dreams of the stage just enough that he made attractive prey to a Nightmare-- and thus sparked into Awakening.

So, hes super new to this, and i wanna play out his awakening as a recent event w dreamers who might be interested! If anything having 8 more hours of the day he can draw paycheck out of is gonna be even more earthshattering than the 'in my dreams, I'm fearless and at the top of my game again' thing. Thenk you Dreamer Union for his life.

Novvy has worked a LONG string of various inglorious entry-level positions until landing the dance instructor job that rattled him Awake. Four years since he came out to this city and he's went from unworldly display-shelf housewife to jack-of-all-trades.... he'd say he's hashtag #thriving but his high resting heartrate and nicotine dependency do not agree.

As a Dreamer, Novvy tries to keep his two lives in separate boxes, banking on his dramatic differences in the waking vs dreaming worlds letting him stay under the radar and playing very coy with information about his waking self around his fellow Dreamers. This drops the moment he's interacting with the Union, though. No fooling around with the meal ticket.

As Dreamer Ballade, he comes off as very unserious... as Novvy Rex, he's like a pulled taut string.

Short Term & Long Term Plans: oh boy okay
Well for starters I want to live deliciously playing an extremely niche storyline/character concept.... I'm going to rot my own teeth out with sweet parent fluff just doing side content for myself

ANYWAY. I have LOTS of ideas, more than can be reasonably stuffed in here, but a big vibe is getting novvy to come to terms with the life he left behind when he left his husband, and also for him to like. Come to a place of equilibrium. I'm kind of setting his little toy car down just Before the real climbing out of the hole begins.

I plan on taking symbolic inspiration for his arc(s???) from various famous ballets, starting with Don Quixote which is the journal name origin!!

Desired CR/AU Castmates:
I have a post over here w a bunch of spitballing for potential connections, though the Big One of a babysitter-on-call for Novvy's daughter Gratia has been filled. But tl;dr: need a dance teacher? Former coworker? An excited rookie Dreamer who got a super late start?

Anything Else?: SORRY THIS GOT SO LONG--
