<dd>Ioan is a Romanian historian who uploaded in 2238. Ey’s described as white, on the shorter side for the era at 5‘11”, slender but a bit soft, brown or blond hair kept at maybe 2-3” that tends to wind up in unruly curls ey finds frustrating. Ey tends to dress in what ey thinks of as ‘faux-academia garb’, which is usually slacks, a dress shirt, maybe a sweater vest or light jacket, maybe a bow-tie if ey’s feeling particularly snazzy. <a href="https://post-self.ink/img/dearioan.png">ref</a>, <a href="https://post-self.ink/img/ewioan.png">ref</a>, <a href="https://post-self.ink/img/ioanmay.png">ref</a></dd>

<dt>Codrin Bălan</dt>
|
||||
<dd>In 2306, Ioan forked to work on the Qoheleth project with Dear, and at the end, decided not to just quit and merge back down, but to continue on under the name Codrin. While eir features remain similar, ey leans more feminine than Ioan. Ey’s relaxed on eir dress over the years and is usually found in a tunic and sarong in warmer colors, or traditional Romanian garb at fancier occasions. Ey’s grown eir hair out and the curls have relaxed into a more wavy texture.</dd>

<dt>Michelle Hadje/Sasha</dt>
|
||||
<dd>The last of the lost, Michelle Hadje was RJ’s ex and closest friend. She spent most of her time online as an anthropomorphic skunk, and thus went on to become the progenitor of the Ode clade. As Michelle, she’s described as white of middle/near eastern descent, pale with curly black hair framing a round face, pudgy, and, later on, almost constantly exhausted. As Sasha, she’s described as a pretty standard skunk but otherwise the same: “I just wanted to look like myself offline except a furry. Completely unremarkable and a species no one likes.” After uploading, she found herself unable to stay pinned to one form without a lot of concentration (see <a href="qoheleth/Sasha/003.html">here</a> for a description). Maddy kind of adopted the skunk form for herself in some weird reverse self-insert so <a href="https://where-it-watches-the-slow-hours-progress.ode.clade.id/ref.png">this ref</a> is pretty accurate as a base for the skunk-type Odists.</dd>

<dt>Dear, Also, The Tree That Was Felled</dt>
|
||||
<dd>Dear is an anthropomorphic fennec. For complicated reasons related to the plot of <em>Qoheleth</em>, it’s wound up with white fur rather than the usual tan. It dresses quite sharp, usually in a dress shirt and waistcoat, often with a jacket. Whether or not it wears pants is a matter of mood — it has opted out of primary sex characteristics, so, shrug~ <a href="https://post-self.ink/img/dearioan.png">ref</a>, <a href="https://post-self.ink/img/dearref.png">ref</a></dd>

<dt>May Then My Name Die With Me</dt>
|

<dd>Other than a few exceptions such as Dear, the Ode clade is pretty evenly distributed between anthropomorphic skunks and humans, almost all women. May is one of the skunks, and is described as short, chubby, and cute, more so than the rest. This is explained as a way to be seen as harmless and inoffensive, given her prior role in the clade as one who would influence others through friendships and romance. <a href="https://post-self.ink/img/ioanmay.png">ref</a>, <a href="https://drab-makyo.com/commissions/progress/mitzvot%20sketches-1.png">ref</a> (left), <a href="https://drab-makyo.com/commissions/progress/mitzvot%20sketches-b.png">ref</a></dd>

<dt>The Only Time I Know My True Name Is When I Dream</dt>

<dd>Where May amped up the cuteness and friendliness, True Name amped up the professionalism. Still a skunk, still soft, but projects confidence and political adroitness rather than necessarily friendliness — unless that’s what’s called for to turn the situation to her advantage. <a href="https://post-self.ink/img/truename1.png">ref</a>, <a href="https://post-self.ink/img/tnawnh.png">ref</a> (left), <a href="https://drab-makyo.com/commissions/progress/mitzvot%20cover%20wip1.png">ref</a>, <a href="https://drab-makyo.com/commissions/progress/mitzvot%20sketches-1.png">ref</a> (right)</dd>

<dd>AwDae was one of the original lost, those unlucky few who wound up stuck unable to pull back from their immersive net connections. When not at work in the sound booth at the theater, ey spent most of eir time online as an anthropomorphic fennec fox. Pretty standard one, really, though ey put incredible amounts of energy into perfecting eir avatar, making it ever more realistic to the point where ey couldn’t even say eir chosen name with a thoroughly vulpine muzzle. Non-binnery, tends towards simple tunics and skirts. When not a fox, ey’s described as white, lanky, slender, average height, sandy hair. <a href="https://post-self.ink/img/awdae.png">ref</a></dd>

<dd>Why Ask Questions and Answers Will Not Help both look basically as Michelle did, minus a few changes: Why Ask Questions has amped up the friendliness somewhat - she can get the whole bar singing with her - while Answers Will Not Help has given up on likeable, often coming off as petty and mean.</dd>

<dd>End Waking kept the species from his past, but has otherwise diverged quite far from True Name over the centuries. There’s the obvious gender change, but, given how bad he feels about what he did in the past, he’s given up not just on politics but on all of modern society. He lives as a hermit in a forest of his own making and is described as “heavily committed to the ranger aesthetic. Cloak, hatchet, bow, the works”. <a href="https://post-self.ink/img/ewioan.png">ref</a></dd>
