Backtagging: Yes please. My timezone and RL responsibilities means this is the default. I aim to be regular.
Fourth wall Breaks: No thanks.
Threadhopping: Sure, just give me a heads up.
OOC topics to avoid: Most things are ok. Would prefer to avoid anything to do with explicit sexual assault and suicide though.

IC permissions

Hugging: Ok.
Kissing: Ok but expect him to politely rebuff further advances.
Flirting: Ok but expect it to go over his head.

Physical violence/injury/death: Always. But Serph is a cannibal so if your character picks a serious fight with Serph and dies as a result, they will be eaten. I will always ask for permission.

HMD/Opt-out

Serph comes from Atlus' infamous cannibal video game, Digital Devil Saga, and thus comes with a big cannibalism content warning. It is not a recreational or hobby thing, it's a core Feature (he MUST eat people/monsters regularly otherwise he goes on an uncontrollable rampage) and therefore cannot be avoided when interacting with him long term. I will usually use non-graphic language to describe the cannibalism (often phrased as "hunger" or "devouring") in tags and only go into detail if you're open to it.

However, if you'd rather not interact with Serph at all, please leave a comment here. Comments are screened.
