Of course you don’t know what to say, because NOBODY would rather not know. You don’t see color, and WANT to go back to black and white. I go back there and I’m… I’m a depressed super nerd. — independent and private CANON DIVERGENT portrayal of QUENTIN COLDWATER from SyFy’s The Magicians // protected and cried over by Dezzie
The voice comes from behind her as she admires the painting on the wall before her and she looks away to the doorway of the gallery, a smile crossing her lips as emerald eyes fall on Isaac leaning against the wall staring at her. Beckoning him over with a jerk of her head, her eyes go back to the painting and she smiles once more; indicating the piece on the wall. ‘It is a beautiful piece, although I think pretty is a bit of an understatement.’ She looks over at him. ‘I’m sorry I didn’t wait on you outside, I was kind of excited about this gallery.’
This blog is a private & semi exclusive roleplay portrayal of CLARISSA ADELE FAIRCHILD MORGENSTERN of The Shadowhunter Chronicles with some slight influencing from FreeForm’s Shadowhunters. I have no affiliation with Cassandra Clare nor do I claim to know Kat Mcnamara, or even of the face claims that do appear on this blog. I do not own the Shadow World, either. I’m just here to play in it. Any HEADCANONS & VERSE CRAFTING that you come across on this blog are of my own creation or are influenced by certain events that have occurred and therefore, belong to me and me alone.

dark themes & mature content
Due to the natures of this fandom, dark and mature themes will be featured on this blog. This CAN include death, blood, gore, sexual content, etc. Please be sure to keep in mind that content featuring MORGENCEST may appear on this blog. It's a touchy subject and is only approached from a fictional point of view, and approached with clear understanding of fiction. This is also allowed if there is extensive plotting, understanding, and interacting. A deep OOC connection is needed before this can even be approached. If anything needs to be tagged that is triggering for you, please don’t hesitate to let me know and I will do my best to accommodate you! As of right now, anything involving child death or miscarriages are blacklisted by me and I will make sure to blacklist any tag that you use involving these things.
book based vs. show based
When it comes to my portrayal of Clary, I have found myself constantly bouncing between either being solely book based with no reference to FreeForm’s work to sometimes having some show influencing. Over the last year now, I have found myself to enjoy both the book canon material as well as the show canon material. It is with this understanding that I have decided that my portrayal of Clary will be a BLENDED CANON PORTRAYAL. This means that while most of my canon material is book based, I will be using influencing from the show as well as my own personal headcanons to create my own unique portrayal of Clary for you guys to interact with; my portrayal is pulled from a little bit of everything, to make a long story short.
As of right now, I am familiar and completely up to date with all the books involved in The Shadowhunter Chronicles. This means that not only am I familiar THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS series, but also; THE INFERNAL DEVICES, THE DARK ARTIFICES, and GHOSTS OF THE SHADOW MARKET. I am also incredibly familiar with the work from THE BANE CHRONICLES and TALES FROM THE SHADOWHUNTER ACADEMY.
interacting & following
If we are MUTUALS, please feel free to come to me for any sort of plotting that might come to your mind upon following me. You’re also more than welcome to invade the ask box with memes, like any starter calls that are posted, and just all around interact with Clary however you’d like.
Memes are more than welcome to be turned into threads, in fact I encourage it heavily, AS LONG AS A NEW POST IS STARTED. If you follow me first, I’ll do my best to give you a blog a look and check it out to see if I can see us interacting. I am more than happy to write with portrayals from both canon materials, fandoms outside of my own fandom, and even original characters; all I ask is that your blog has a rules page that I can read over and there’s an about page so that I can learn about your fandom if your fandom is one I’m unfamiliar with, as well as learning about your OC should you decide to follow me.
Please take care to move move replies to a new thread instead of reblogging my response to your meme. With the way I format my asks these days, most of the time a new post ISN’T NEEDED but still; keep this in mind if it needs to be done should you want to continue a meme response.
In regards to interactions, I will not be writing with anyone under 18 years old, although 21+ is PREFERRED; I will consider those 18 to 21 but I also reserve the right to not write with any mun that I see fit. Anyone under the age of 18 will not be followed and if you’re age isn’t listed on your blog, I will not follow you back.
threads & memes
There will be times where my muse goes on a meme reblog spree and I find myself drowning in memes. If they sit in my inbox for longer than a WEEK TO TWO WEEKS, the meme will be deleted simply because Clary has refused to cooperate with me. The same might occur with smaller, unplotted threads that can’t seem to go anywhere. This is no fault on you; this is purely on Clary and myself. I will let you know if any of these instances occur but please don’t think that it’s because I don’t want to interact because I promise that isn’t the case at all.
When it comes to formatting, I generally tend to always use icons of gif icons as well as small text sizing. Replies can range from 3 or 4 paragraphs to upwards of 900+ words, depending on what my muse is feeling that day in regards to our thread/plot. I do not require any sort of formatting from my partners, but please remember to CUT YOUR POSTS. That’s my only request. I don’t care if you use gifs, or icons, or any text styling. I’m here for the quality of our writing, not for how pretty it looks on the dash or on our blogs.
shipping & exclusivity
To be honest, I'm kind of a ship whore. If there's chemistry, I'm here for it. Whether it's a romantic pairing, or a hateship, or whatever; I'm here for it as long as it is NOT forced. I also prefer to communicate with those that I ship with often; whether it's for plotting or to just scream about our characters together. My best ships have stemmed from the greatest friendships I have formed on this site so, I'd prefer for us to mesh well out of character as well as in character. I'm also the type of person who wants to build up a ship. I'm fine with them ALREADY having some sort of connection but, I want to build on that. I'm also not just here for romantic shipping. Give me platonic love, give me familial love, give me hatred, give me it all.
When it comes to exclusivity and mains, I'm here for either. Exclusivity can be practiced but, it's going to take a deep connection for me to allow that. I'm never one to completely cut myself off from other potential partners but if it's there then it's THERE. Aside from that, I'm also all for the idea of mains; so if that's something you'd like to discuss after some interactions and talking, please feel free to ask.
other ways of contact
I am almost ALWAYS online when I'm not and not spending time with my kid, so you can be positive that you can always shoot me a message that will get a quick response from me most of the time. I also run a multimuse blog with other characters created by Cassandra Clare as well as characters from other fandoms, and you're more than welcome to follow me there if you ask for the url or come across my promo for it. My discord is also available to MUTUALS.

clary's world
nephilim/shadowhunters
FACILIS DESCENSUS AVERNO. Shadowhunters (also known as NEPHILIM) are the appointed warriors on Earth of the Angel Raziel. They are appointed specifically to control and preside over the demons and supernatural creatures that reside in our world. The blood of the angel flows through their veins and while they appear as mere humans, they are far from such. Their primary objective from birth is to train and train, to one day join their breathern in the fight against demons and to rid the world of the evil that walks among humans.
the angel raziel
Credited as the creator of the race known as SHADOWHUNTERS, the angel Raziel gifted them with items known as THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS to assist them in their war on evil, as well as the ability to create angelic runes. Among these gifts was an item known as the MORTAL CUP from which he had the first humans drink a mixture of his blood so that all shadowhunters, even those descended from the first shadowhunters, would have his blood running through their veins. This marked their family as shadowhunters all the way down their line.
the mortal instruments
Raziel gifted Jonathan Shadowhunter with tools that would be ideal in their battle against the demons that were invading the Earth. These tools were known as the MORTAL CUP (this is how Nephilim are created. The Cup itself is filled with angelic power, and drinking from it transforms a mundane into a Nephilim.), the MORTAL SWORD (a weapon that is kept in the Silent City and is normally only used by the Silent Brothers. Its main use is to force Nephilim to tell the complete truth.), and the MORTAL MIRROR (often referred to as the mortal glass, this instrument is known as Lake Lyn that exists in Idris; home country to Nephilim. Ingesting the waters of Lake Lyn is harmful to Nephilim; often leading them to have hallucinations and sometimes madness.).
the sight
Naturally already born with this ability, Shadowhunters refer to their ability of seeing through GLAMOUR as the Sight. Through training and the application of the VOYANCE rune, Shadowhunters are able to perfect their Sight to see through glamour and identify Downworlders effectively and immediately. Other temporary MARKS are given to enhance the Sight, but these marks fade away so that normal vision isn't destroyed in the long run.
runes
RUNES, otherwise referred to as marks, are symbols that grant beings various supernatural abilities; both ANGELIC AND DEMONIC marks exist, with Shadowhunters using angelic marks. When it comes to Shadowhunters, runes are a COMPLEX LANGUAGE given to them by the Angel which grant them abilities beyond mundanes. Runes are burned into a shadowhunters' skin by using a stele, and are their most common tools in their fight against demons.
While runes do cause some uneasiness and a slight stinging pain, MOST runes do not actually cause harm against a Shadowhunter. When a young Shadowhunter is set to begin his or her formal training, usually around the age of ten or twelve, they receive their first rune; which is the Voyance rune most often. While most runes are meant to be used on Shadowhunters' skin, there are many runes that can also be applied on physical objects, giving a variety of effects and abilities. MANY of these runes are placed on their weapons to prevent demons from healing when injured by them; others are used to lock and unlock doors, create fires, and a WIDE array of other abilities. When drawn on the skin, fresh runes appear black; these runes will ALMOST always leave behind a faint white or silver scar as if as a reminder of the rune that was once placed there. These runes would need to be drawn again for their effects to be felt again. Other runes such as the Voyance rune and Parabatai, to name a few.
mundanes & glamour
In this universe created by Cassandra Clare, MUNDANES are typically humans not of shadowhunter birth. They are COMPLETELY oblivious to the Shadow World, meaning Shadowhunters and Downworlders and other beings. When a Shadowhunter, warlock, or demons puts up a GLAMOUR; it is so a mundance cannot see them. Instead, they will see something compeltely different or nothing at all. A glamour CAN be dropped just as willingly as it is put up.
downworlders
Supernatural beings and hybrid creatures who live in the SHADOWWORLD are typically referred to as Downworlders. This is term that widely covers those who are half human and half demon, basically; the opposite of Nephilim, which are half human and half angel. This term is used for WEREWOLVES, WARLOCKS, VAMPIRES, and FAERIES. Although demonic in origin and nature, Downworlders posesss human souls and are therefore considered part of the human race by those who reside in Heaven.
the accords & the clave
Peace negotiations signed between the Downworlders and the Clave are known as THE ACCORDS. The Accords act as >u>AMENDMENTS to the Covenant agreed to be taken as the law of the land by all of the Shadow World. The Accords are revised and signed every fifteen years by REPRESENTATIVES of the Nephilim and all Downworlder groups, in the Accords Hall in ALICANTE.
THE CLAVE is the COLLECTIVE name for the political body made up of all active Shadowhunters. The Clave keeps and interprets the Law, and makes decisions about the guidance of the Nephilim through history as it unfolds and decides on important matters that affect the Nephilim, which also SOMETIMES affect the Downworlders as well.
silent brothers & iron sisters
THE SILENT BROTHERS are a powerful group of male Shadowhunters who serve as archivists and medics of the Nephilim. To strengthen their minds, they have taken upon themselves the most powerful of runes known to Shadowhunters. They are feared among the Nephilim. They reside in the Silent City, away from the rest of their kind. The prospective Silent Brothers MUST sever ties to their mortal lives. Once sworn into the Brotherhood, they undergo a series of rituals that will turn them into Silent Brothers. They even choose a new name, SYMBOLIC of their new lives.
THE IRON SISTERS are a communal organization of female Shadowhunters that forge weapons for their kind. The Iron Sisters are considered the female counterparts of the Silent Brothers, albeit more secluded. They reside in the Adamant Citadel, where they live in almost total solitude and speak only, and occasionally, to female Shadowhunters. The Iron Sisters are even more private and removed from Nephilim society than the Silent Brothers. They do not like to be bothered and prefer to work in isolation, particularly not wanting interference from male Shadowhunters. The Iron Sisters rarely leave or venture outside of their usual domain, the Citadel, though they are also known to work in the basement levels of Alicante's Armory. Being remote, the Sisters have to rely on an accurate network of information to be aware of the happenings outside the Citadel.

rules for this verse;
oo1.) This verse is compliant with the creation of FreeForm's Shadowhunters and will follow along with events in the show, with slight changes; primarily the death of Jocelyn Fairchild. It's in my opinion that it was just a cop out and served no actual purpose, as Clary didn't need her mother to become a Shadowhunter and her death didn't entirely do much to spur her in that direction.

rules of this verse;
oo1.)This verse takes place at the end of the series, following the series finale of Shadowhunters.
oo2.)In this verse; after defeating jonathan and saving humanity, the angel raziel felt that clary had too much freedom and power with her rune creating and slowly deruned her until she no longer possessed the sight and was unable to continue life as a shadowhunter or as a member of the shadow world; rendering her, once again, mundane and with NO memory whatsoever of the shadow world or her life during the time she is a shadowhunter.

oo4.) At this current point in time, this verse is currently private but I am open to accepting new partners into it should it be requested by potential partners.
rules of this verse;
oo1.)This verse takes place at the end of 3a [3x10 Erchomai] where Clary is now linked to Jonathan, and is predominantlyhis life force; for lack of better wording. “As you live, so shall he.”
oo2.)In this verse, several of Jonathan’s own “quirks” have transferred over to Clary; essentially making her a female version of Jonathan. His perfect counterpart. In this verse, you’ll see a different side of Clary than what most of us are used to and I feel like it’ll be a fantastic rollercoaster for anyone who decides to step inside this verse with us. I have always wondered how things would play out if it was Clary in Jace’s place and shewas the one tied to Jonathan, so I feel like this is a great way to explore that thought process.
