The All-Purpose CR/Plotting Meme

Let us have another round of the CR/Plotting Meme, all - as before, open for making arrangements with and between not only current but potential characters in StE!

As with before, there will be a header under which to comment with potential characters - when doing so, please label with characters' reincarnated names (if decided!) and pre-incarnated names and canons in the comments' subject lines.

For characters of either status, toss up a comment and any information you see please; go on ahead and use this form if you'd like a place to start or take it however you feel -

<b>Character:</b> <b>Pre-Incarnation:</b> [Feel free to write them up a blurb here - especially encouraged if they're a character you're considering rather than one established in-game! Alternatively omit.] <b>Pre-Network CR Opportunities:</b> (Family, colleagues, or mentors/students you're open to player control of? Friends and enemies from here-or-there you'd like them entering things with? Etc.) <b>Open/Wanted CR:</b> (Have you any certain types of CR/dynamics you hope to bring into development?) <b>Other Info:</b> (Anything a person ought to know - any plans for them or things you've wanted to write them doing? Where characters may encounter each other? What they like, what they've been up to, what they do and do not get along with?) <b>Anything Else?:</b> (Anything else you'd like to say?)

Ethan Landes | Syaoran Li | Cardcaptor Sakura

[bladeoftradition]

Character: Ethan Landes (15)
Pre-Incarnation: Syaoran Li | Cardcaptor Sakura

Syaoran was a kid that came to a town in Japan and demanded a book of magical artifact cards from a little girl that had no idea what she was doing. She said no, and things got weirder from there. Seriously though, he's a kid that wields a sword like a boss at 10 years old, and he's got magic and knowledge and awesome and still loses. Unfortunate.

Ethan, on the other hand, is the kind of kid that's set himself up as the guy you do not mess with, and if you're smart, you don't mess with anyone else while he's watching, or else you risk drawing him over. He's been practicing martial arts for a while, and he's got a strong sense of justice, but it's been a little cracked after his mother died a few years ago. He's over at LCMS going through school - he understands he needs to be smart to succeed, even if whatever he does uses his strength and not his brains - and plays on the soccer team there.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: One open parent slot (father). Willing to entertain at most two sibling slots, any gender or age. Aside from that, Ethan:
- Plays middle school soccer; he's probably attracted a little attention because he's actually pretty good at it. Intends to try out for the LCHS team next year.
- Has been suspended a few times for fighting; the sentence is a few days at most, because he'll only get involved to protect others (mostly), and he stops fairly quickly once he's sure his point is made.
- If you look weak or easily taken advantage of, you might find and/or have found Ethan keeping a subtle eye on you to make sure nothing bad is happening. If he knows you're weak, he will be keeping an eye on you, and maybe chatting you up every so often to make sure you're doing okay.
- Police-types: Ethan's mother was assaulted five years ago, and died shortly after being transported to the hospital. The case was linked to possible gang violence, but no arrests were made, and the case remains open - but probably refiled as cold - to this day. He's exceptionally bitter about it, but understands on some level that it's not the police's fault that they didn't find anything. Rubbing it in his face, however, is not advised. If you've been studying the case file, Ethan's name is probably in there somewhere.

Open/Wanted CR: Squishies for him to ward would be horribly entertaining. Hotheads would be also entertaining for the opposite reason. He will probably be in need of female friends for his own good. Anyone with magic would be spectacular, but I'd want to know their power source and/or attribute; CCS is infamous for matchmaking using magic types, and anyone with a lunar power source will probably find Syaoran very interested in them once he starts to Echo his magic back.

Other Info: I will be highly amused when it's about time to start giving him item Echoes; he'll be getting back his sword, and if he realizes the strips of paper he sees himself using in combat memory Echoes are in Chinese, he'll be making some of his own and seeing what, if anything, happens.
