Form of Being: Auditions Closed; Under Review
Krxptonian for Sensitivity Reader (for Black, Puerto-Rican American Character)
This position would provide oversight and editing suggestions for the character of Andrés Rodriguez. Andres is a Black, Puerto-Rican American Dragon living with his Mom, Dad, Amma (Gender Neutral Parent), and Sister. His Dragon abilities come from his mother's side, and his Human aspects from his father. He is able to shapeshift between being Dragon and Human with no specific preference, other than to be seen as himself regardless of his form. His mom enjoys traveling often, so he's usually at home with his dad and often with his amma. His sister's character is still in early stages of development. He enjoys playing basketball and gardening, the latter of which he uses his skill for at his job as a florist. He can have a difficult time finding the right words to use in situations because of his social anxiety, but his heart is always in the right place, even if he can't figure out the right synonyms to describe it.
While I am AFAB, non-binary and trans, I am a white American with no personal experience regarding Puerto-Rican American upbringings, the experience of growing up Black in America, or the feelings of growing up in a multiracial household. I want to write a story about Andrés' character without unintentionally tokenizing or stereotyping aspects of his character. If you feel comfortable with working with me on his character storyline, or if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to me through this website, or through Discord (smokeandash#4396).
Thank you, and best of luck on all of your endeavors!
