Gulliver Dirgefall - Blog Posts

I like gull

Thank you! He is a good fish boy.

Here's a short bio of him for funsies (^:

Gulliver was born and raised on the sea. His mother was never in the picture. His fisherman, dullahan father thought it best for the boy to learn practical skills. And, of course, practical skills meant fishing skills.

So, Gulliver learned sea skills from a young age. How to tie a knot, how to survive a storm, how to de-bone a fish. Suffice to say, Gulliver's dad was very proud when his son choose his first head as a whole set of fish bones for himself - a right of maturity in dullahans. And kept it into adulthood.

What his father didn't like, however, was when they returned to the land- Gulliver wanted a "proper education". What, his teachings weren't good enough for you, boy? Fine. Go to your fancy-pancy university. But don't expect any help from me.

Gulliver shoved his way through an education degree by the bones of his bones, with help from his friendly roommate- Hyacinth. Another hybrid.

However, it was hard for a hybrid to get work in the field. Something about human kids less likely to learn from weirdos.

Just as he was about to call it quits and go crawling back to his father, he met Moral. A wonderful bartender who told of a school that catered specifically to hybrids like him.

Gulliver took the job, and became the theater lit teacher- teaching famous plays to kids.

Gulliver was also surprised to see his former roommate, Hyacinth there! The two caught up and- Oh would you look at that he's gay. Huh.

The two had a long courtship before marrying at the seaside. Gulliver still had a fondness for the sea, even after everything. Gulliiver's father did not show up to the event.

Gulliver, very recently, was asked to become the vice Principal by his close friend Moral. And now he has a lot more responsibility on his plate, on top of running the gsa. But, hey, it can't be harder that running a boat, right?

Two important adults and a side adult who all work at Hybrid High!

Moral Nightengale (city fae/??? hybrid - she/they); the mysterious and enigmatic principal/founder of the school. Recently wed to Percy's mother.

Gulliver Dirgefall (skeleton/dullahan hybrid - he/him); a former theater lit teacher who became the vice principal. Teacher supervisor to the gsa. Married to Hyacinth!

Hyacinth Dirgefall (tabaxi/satyr hybrid - he/him); the sign language teacher at school. Married to Gulliver!

me: I should design the gems I promised! 

brain: fuck you we’re finishing the wips of the two adult characters we have set aside for hybrid high. 

me:

me: uh-

So yea. I’ve had these guys set aside for half a year now and FINALLY decided to line them. These two are very important staff members for the high school, being the Principal and Vice Principal respectively..... And one of them being Percy’s new step parent.

On the top we have Principal Moral Nighshade; A City Fae and.... No one’s sure. She is a hybrid, but no one really knows what of. She created the high school for hybrid children like herself many years ago, creating a safe space so children who were seen as different could be around others like them. She even set it up so on the first day students could get a pronoun pin so people knew how to identify them. 

Moral used to work at a bar, for their boring summers and nights to be filled up. This is where they met a very worried-about-her-son Mrs. Hudson..... Their romance was private and whirwind, preparing to get married just over a year into their courtship. And, before Percy even met Moral. 

Percy is highly suspicious of Moral and her intentions with his mother at first, as fae are regarded as dangerous and conniving by most humans. But, they become close and bond very well eventually. 

Moral uses she/they pronouns, and is able to grow a beard. She’ll not shave it if it’s the weekend.

On the bottom, we have the very kind Vice Principal Gulliver Dirgefall! Widely beloved by the students, Gulliver is a chipper, friendly dullahan-skeleton hybrid who used to teach Theater Lit; where he would teach famous plays to his children. However, he quickly gained the vice principal position due to how beloved he is by all the staff, students, and parents. 

He runs the Sexuality and Gender Alliance club at the school, and is a married gay man. Gulliver is a cis male and uses he/him pronouns
