Esme Clarke
— Secret Keeper —

Appearance
Pronouns • She / Her | Eye Color • Green | Hair Color • Copper | Height • 5'6" | Body • Athletic | Reference | PlaylistA wild-eyed nymph, even beneath layers of Tidesage robes she gives the impression that she’s more at home in the depths of the sea or wilds of the forest. Nothing about her can be tamed from her tempest of ginger curls to the galaxies of freckles, scars, and tattoos across her body. Always beflowered and adorned with enchanted jewelry. Her voice is breathy and hypnotic.While the spark of wild magic glistens in her emerald eyes, so does a story of heartaches and bloodlust. There’s nothing simple about Esme Clarke. She is a siren’s song for ne’er-do-wells, a mystery that many wish to delve into. But this bard comes and goes as she pleases. And new winds inevitably usher in the ache of her absence to those who seek to cage her… if they survive her.
Weapons
Mandolin
Hand crafted from a Blackwald tree with protective runes and thorned vines; this heirloom is dubbed the Lunalyre. In hidden places one can see strange runes which are not like those commonly used. It’s strung with delicate spider webs and close inspection reveals ethereal arachnids living in its hollow. It’s held on her back by a black strap with silver-threaded design of fish and sparrows. The mandolin radiates magic from the Tidemother, but its fabrication originates from fae magic.
Rainstick
Short, made of lightningwood that appears charred and sporadic electricity striking from within. This rainstick is handmade and appears more like a totem than an instrument a professional musician would use.

Esme
I created Esme in 2010 opening night of the Cataclysm expansion, she holds a very special place in my heart. While this carrd gives a general overview of her current character development, there is ample worldbuilding and backstory surrounding this character. I’ve always played her as a D&D bard (College of the Siren) and am thrilled about Blizzard expanding on siren lore.
About Me
I’ve been roleplaying here on Moon Guard since 2007. I’m an adult who has been RPing in WoW-MG since Burning Crusade. I have a strong interest in immersive and collaborative storytelling with character development at its cornerstone. I often focus on dark themes with silver linings.
Roleplay Style
I write in the present tense with a novella-esque way of moving the story, balancing multiple characters and NPCs. I prefer 1-2 paragraph emotes and longer scenes ranging from 3-8 hours. I have an appreciation for lore, but I don’t heavily rely on it. Many of my stories have some level of headcanon or homebrew.
Walk Up
Boundaries and communication are crucial to me for developing healthy roleplay friendships. To initiate RP, feel free to walk-up if you see me hanging out. If I’m roleplaying with someone, whisper to inquire if it’s a closed or open RP.

Long Term
For follow up RP, send me a message on Discord. I play many alts and don’t often hang-out in Stormwind; waiting for me to log on won’t result in consistent RP. Many times when I do, it’s to go to a planned event. I work best on a schedule so that I can manage my spoons accordingly. I always try to be respectful with people’s time and will let you know if I’m late or can’t make it in an emergency.
Thank you Kevin Desai for the background.
