Sworn to You

[foundparadise]

SWORN TO THE SWORD shipping meme It's textbook, really. Or, more accurately, parchment, because you've either found yourself or always been in a time (it doesn't necessarily have to be medieval) where swords - and possibly sorcery - are the weapons and the mindset of the day; at the very least, the rough and tumble attitude that comes with a knife's edge permeates the land. And you know how to wield a weapon, be it a blade, your own body, or something else entirely, so you've put it to good use. You've become a sworn sword to protect someone. It could be out of the goodness of your heart, out of heritage, or stemmed from a desire for compensation or power. No matter what the cause, however, one fact remains the same, and that's how you cannot let emotions cloud your judgment. Of course, that may be a little easier said than done. When you're so close to a person, in order to keep them safe, and when you put your very life on the line... ...ah, but you must persevere. Your duty does not allow you to falter.

Valryn Melana | Dungeons & Dragons OC | m/m

[ historical fantasy or modern fantasy. Valryn would be sworn to, as a drow noble gone rogue (that's not a class joke!) having left the Underdark to come to the surface, he would absolutely hire a guard to his protection. drow are highly suspicious and distrusting, even to those closest to them, so building toward ship (whether it's hard-earned trust through demonstration or impressing him, or simply attraction first) is ideal. best case scenario is someone with mettle that he can challenge and approve of, also playfully sizing him down a bit, ego-speaking.

[Probably most believable as the one being sworn to, though we could potentially flip roles. Interested in both canon and cross-canon CR, happy to do things in her world, your character's world, or a jamjar!]
