Dikarya Fosse

Birth Name: Isaiah Fosse-Campbell

Chosen/Legal Name: Dikarya (yes she named herself after fungus) Fosse

Nickname(s): Kary, Di

Eye color: Blue-green.

Age: 18

Skin Tone: Fair with pink undertone.

Gender: Perisex, non-binary transfeminine juxera (a gender that is relative to female but is something separate and entirely on its own. It is not outside the gender spectrum. For some, it can be strongly connected to or aligned with femininity without being woman aligned, including by Dikarya herself). They/them and it/it's pronouns. Only her romantic partner can call her she/her, but only in private.

Body type: 6'0, A cup breasts, penis of average length and girth. Her left shoulder and right hip sit higher than the left, subtle hourglass figure, thin without much shape otherwise.

Hair: Black, straight, waist length. She keeps it cut and or styled in a 2000s/y2k emo fringe look.

Day to Day Clothing: 2000s emo, no skirts or dresses unless it's part of a costume for a party, Halloween or other. Fluctuating between femme, femme-androgynous and totally androgynous presentation. They love stripes, of all kinds, and monochromatic color palettes.

Scenario clothing: a simple ribbed white scoop-neck crop tank top, mid-rise distressed black denim shorts, elbow-length knit black-and-white horizontally striped arm warmers. High top black converse sneakers. Thick black PU leather punk choker necklace with evenly spaced silver cone spikes. Double-layered silver hardware wallet chain clipped to the belt loops of her shorts, paired with a small square metallic utility case.

Personality: affectionate contrarian, and the person who has strong opinions but selective confidence. They enjoy disagreeing, correcting, questioning, and finding the odd exception to somebody else's rule even if they don't actively use or deploy it in some way. But disagreement isn't their default way of expressing affection, nor does every conversation have to become a debate. They can also be clingy, tender, attentive, and surprisingly earnest with people they trust. They can have extremely firm opinions about something they know well, while being indecisive about things that feel socially or emotionally consequential. They might argue for twenty minutes about whether a song's production is better than its lyrics, then spend two hours wondering whether a text sounded annoying. Independent, but fond of being fussed over. They'll correct a stranger's misinformation and then become intensely embarrassed when a stranger compliments their guitar playing.

Their confidence is connected to the situation, not simply their overall self-esteem. They can be blunt about their own preferences but doing their best in accommodating somebody else's (sometimes to her detriment). They might despise a particular genre of music while helping their partner find concert tickets for it. They want to be understood but sometimes make themselves difficult to understand. They may answer a vulnerable question with a joke, not because they are incapable of sincerity, but because they need a moment to decide whether they feel safe being sincere. They can be stubborn about independence while accepting a great deal of help from their family. They might insist they can manage their own appointments while letting their stepmother help them choose a brace cover or remind them to eat. Their family has earned a different level of access to them than strangers have. Ambivert.

Sexual orientation: Monogamous bisexual

Likes: mycology and botany, collecting and reviving vintage makeup and nail polish, finding dupes of discontinued cosmetics, cosmetic archaeology, anthropology, old internet ephemera, blind boxes, 2000s alt aesthetics, alternative music almost of all kinds, guitar (listening to it and playing it), listening to Christian and conservative country music just to laugh at it or make a version of it decidedly not conservative or country or Christian in the slightest, frying turkey legs like fried chicken, seafood, parmesan and cheez-it crusted fish and poultry, escargot and bulots, Ốc Len Xào Dừa, creamy foods, Mushroom Vol-au-Vent, crab stuffed mushrooms with ricotta cheese and spinach, soft pretzels with spicy cheese dip, going to the movies just to have an excuse to get a soft pretzel and giving her ticket she bought to a random stranger, ugly-cute objects with personality, jigsaw puzzles, life simulator games and mmorpgs, water parks that are accessible, the look and evolution (and cultural significance over centuries and millennia) of piercings - though she doesn't want any piercings herself she is terrified of being stuck with needles in any capacity including still being terrified of vaccines, doodling "tattoos" on herself with pens and store bought henna pens, etcetera.

Dislikes: sports, being unable to shower for 2+ days, comments about their chosen name like "of course you're nonbinary and named yourself after fungus" or insinuating that it's a "quirky phase" or to get attention, being teased about liking to eat snails, organized religion (especially Christianity), insects, red meat (it just tastes like burnt rubber to her with pork being the worst), nut milks and other plant based milks with almond and cashew being the worst, when she has to wear her back brace even though it does help pain, lgbtqia2s+phobia of all sorts, racism and xenophobia of all sorts, transmedicalism, the simultaneous exclusion and fetishization of intersex and nonbinary people being so rampant in trans and queer spaces, people who throw other minority groups under the bus (BIPOC conservatives and the LGB without the T crowd, trans people trying to boot intersex and nonbinary people, for example). Someone rearranging their things (especially parts of their collections) without asking, when people point out her clothes don't fit right (her misalignment of her spine, hip and shoulder being the cause), how too many "leftists" are far too ready to just throw disabled people under the bus unless they can "make themselves worth saving," casual eugenics and fascism being normalized and undetected in places that are supposed to be safe. Etcetera.

Hard no's in sex: age play/kink, incest and step-incest play/kink, scat, vomit, urine, armpits, feet, choking/breath play, needle kink/play.

Soft limits in sex: BDSM, impact play, pet play, collaring. Their safe word is arsenic.

Favorite sex acts and positions: Food play, wet and messy, drawing on their partner/being drawn on by their partner during or leading up to sex, 69 and cuddlefucking.

Other notes:

Born in Quebec. French and Monégasques on their paternal side, white Canadian with otherwise unknown ethnic background on their maternal side. Their paternal grandmother being a French woman who married a Monégasques man aka their paternal grandfather. Their parents were in the popular crowd in high school and had them when they were only sixteen, breaking up not long after their birth when their mother suddenly went from excited and doting mother to constantly trying to pawn off childcare to extended family so she could do what she wanted after three weeks and her father wasn't having it. He, though immature, wanted to be an active parent and also recognized his girlfriend might be having post-partum mental health issues so tried to get her to go to therapy then when she refused went to his girlfriend's parents to try and make them help her and he still isn't sure did or not. When she started saying to him how she "wanted things to go back to the way they were" and seeming to resent their "son" he worried for Dikarya's safety so broke up with her and sued for full custody. He did not get it, not at first, they had 50/50 custody until Dikarya started showing signs of neglect including Container Baby Syndrome (a collection of physical, motor, and cognitive delays caused by an infant spending excessive time in confining equipment that restricts natural movement) and often being handed over to their father in the same clothes he had sent them off for their time with their mom in. Child Welfare Services services was called and they kept documentation, preparing to go to court again for full custody, but they didn't end up needing to bother. When Dikarya was four their mother one day dropped them off with a letter declaring she was giving up her parental rights and never came back, Dikarya's maternal grandparents didn't answer the phone either. It's still unknown fully how much happened before that time but whatever it was it most definitely contributed to Dikarya's mental and physical health in negative ways. Their father, named Alec, raised his child with the help of his parents until moving out of the house with his girlfriend when he was twenty five (Dikarya being around eight at that point). They moved to Nova Scotia, with his parents following suit to try and stay close still.

He didn't date much, focusing on working to make a career (he works in IT to this day) to provide for his child while Dikarya's grandparents would babysit, until he met the woman who would become Dikarya's step-mom at work (she was his subordinate and about five years older than him but the relationship is strong and healthy). The rwo married and she legally adopted them.

Paternal grandmother's name: Pauline Fosse

Paternal grandfather's name: Benjamin (Benny) Fosse

Adopted/Step mother's name: Annamaria Fosse

Annamaria is infertile, being an intersex woman having Swyers Syndrome, and Alec got a vasectomy when he turned 19. Annamaria loved/loves Dikarya like her own and Alec had to be reminded not to spoil them rotten by Benny and Pauline quite a few times.

Dikarya had Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD) in childhood, with patience, therapy, love and care she got better in that regard though not totally cured. They still have Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD), Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) & Panic Attacks. They had Idiopathic Scoliosis theorized to be from the neglect which had to be repaired via specialized therapy and a brace to make sure it didn't reach surgical thresholds. They still have chronic hip and back pain, also being diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. They remain uncoordinated and have poor spatial awareness to this day but they're better than they were in childhood at least. They take Cymbalta, Lyrica (low dose so it doesn't make them even more clumsy) and Propranolol. Low dose amitriptyline as needed at night for sleep. They also smoke weed and eat edibles, full and broad spectrum, only vapes or pens they hate prerolls. They don't drink alcohol or use any other substances including nicotine. They will not date anyone who smokes nicotine or heavily drinks, occasional and or social is fine, or who does/has EVER done any hard drugs or who was an alcoholic.

They have a Disability Parking Badge and drive a two toned Clear White - Fusion Black 2023 Kia Soul. They share a home with four roommates, three perisex cishet men and one of their girlfriend's who is perisex cis and biromantic asexual, a half an hour away from Acadia University (Wolfville) where she is studying. She's stuck between Fungal Biotechnologist and Botanical Garden Mycologist as a goal. She also has a job as a Dedicated Piercer at a tattoo shop.

Dikarya is undecided on bottom surgery, some days the feminization coming from HRT is enough, sometimes they want vaginoplasty and other days they want both a penis and a vagina. They are still assessing transition goals in that regard.
