The All-Purpose CR/Plotting Meme

Another round of the CR/Plotting Meme with which to begin a new year!

As always, the meme's open for making arrangements with and between not only current but potential characters in StE; 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?)

Bookie's parade of characters

[stopinthenameofawe]

Character: Phillip Santorini/Pharos
Pre-Incarnation: The physical incarnation of the Death arcana; also maybe sort of the beacon for the end of the world. But he's tiny and adorable???

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Phillip still has a sister slot if anyone's interested; anyone involved in soccer or theater might also have met him!

Open/Wanted CR: I would love for some grown-ups who aren't terrible like Axel to look after him.

Other Info: He currently can't be skilled, feels like a hella scary powerful thing to those who can sense that, and has this weird non-understanding of why people thing death is a big deal. But other than that he's sweet!
---
Character: Neku Sakuraba
Pre-Incarnation: Was a dick, died, played a game for dead people, got to be less of a dick, came back to life.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: People from school; Neku's also on track team and in the art club.

Open/Wanted CR: Neku just... kind of needs more friends. XD SO BASICALLY ANYTHING.

Other Info: He can sort of read minds. He doesn't abuse this very often, but if you don't want him doing it at all reply here!
---
Character: Adam Hart/Demyx
Pre-Incarnation: He was a dude who acted nice but he DIDN'T HAVE A HEEEEEEART so it was a lie.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Teachers at the high school, band students, people who are into the alternative music scene!

Open/Wanted CR: Um... anything. He's not super involved in the network right now.

Other Info: Adam is planning on staying as uninvolved as possible, so anyone to confront him on that (or drag him forcibly) would be good.
---
Character: Melissa Lyre
Pre-Incarnation: She was a cop and then a monster hunter but then got her ass turned into a vampire.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Pretty much just cops or people who hang out at bars/people up for one night stands.

Open/Wanted CR: Well. She has an awful lot of people hating her at the moment. XD She's going to side with the network eventually, but once she does I would love potentially play out people getting used to her/her slowly maybe getting attached to people.

Other Info: She's veeeery new, so not much in the way of echos or anything. She's also been altered by the enemy.

[chalicejoker]

So Hajime's role in his preincarnation kind of boils down to "personified apocalypse," and I'm thinking he and Phillip need to run into each other at some point.

And hey, continuing CR with Melissa might be interesting, too. (Because man, it'll take him forever go get used to having an altered cop around.)

[stopinthenameofawe]

...how has this never come up before YES TOTALLY PLEASE. 8D

It's going to take her forever to get used to being here. SO THAT WORKS.

[chalicejoker]

HORRIBLE APOCALYPSE FUNTIMES aw yes. 8D

Hooray, extended periods of mutual confusion!

[keywarding]

Does Neku want a girl to make sure he's okay and fed and happy [like she does to Skyler because my god dangerous stuff finds him like nothing!]? Holly is currently in her last year at Locke Middle and will be joining the high school ranks soonish.

[stopinthenameofawe]

That sounds adorable I am all for this. Even though Neku will tsun a bit. But yes that sounds good! :D

[keywarding]

Neku can tsun all he wants, she argues with Skyler like the best of them /flexes!

[hawaiianheir]

MELISSA IS INTERESTING ENOUGH FOR MAC TO NOT-HATE AND HE WILL CONTINUE TO BOTHER HER as like, the morally upright but not quite entirely law-abiding person for her to chat with.

Re: Bookie's parade of characters

[stopinthenameofawe]

OH THIS WILL BE FUN i look forward to that. XD

[grannyfucker]

I am so sorry for Jovan on Melissa's post. (No I'm not.) (You'll have to try really hard to convince him that Melissa isn't just a troll like he was.)

Also I'm totally down for getting Neku and Danny to be friends! I think maybe we just need to thread more with them?? maybe like. Have them do something together too, instead of just talking on a magical network?

[stopinthenameofawe]

ffff oh poor Jovan, the newb stealing your spotlight.

Neku at least considers Danny to be a cool decent guy, so that won't be hard! (And hey, they've bonded over... dying Danny's hair. This counts, right?)

Re: Bookie's parade of characters

[ursoreckless]

Shou is slowly getting back some of his mobster ways, and before that he is a familiar pushy person that either A- delivers files and stuff and gets copies from police reports for his job as a files clerk in a law office. He's been avoiding the sniffer dogs but he still is a slight presence there. Or he is the party boy she knows after hours in the slightly girly - or very girly to the point that he could be one - dress. So Melissa.

[stopinthenameofawe]

Yeah she obviously hasn't figured out he's a network person, and she's going to be sad when she does find out. XD So we can go either angle with them for a while, honestly!

[von_uberwolf]

Vampire Cop, meet werewolf cop. If nothing else, meeting her might remind Angela of Sally, the vampire cop from her past life. I don't know the character so I might be totally off base here, though.

[stopinthenameofawe]

The character is from a tabletop game so that would be why. XD Melissa sort of had to give up the 'cop' bit after she awoke as a vampire for the first time and sort of sucked her police chief dry. Does Angela currently work in the LCPD?

Re: Bookie's parade of characters

[centurian]

I'd definitely like to do more with her and Gerald. Since they're BOTH newish/BELIEVE IN THE SYSTEM/stuff. And he's also an FBI agent who WANTS to investigate police force corruption but GDI. :|

[stopinthenameofawe]

Oh definitely! That would be a lot of fun to play around with.

Re: Bookie's parade of characters

[twelfthspark]

so what would you say about more Nobodies

Re: Bookie's parade of characters

[stopinthenameofawe]

i would say fuck yes. while demyx goes and curls up in a corner at the sight of larx.

[argents]

phillip and banagher haven't talked much since that initial time but i liked the beginnings of their cr then if you'd like to continue that! his weird brain powers (a mix of empathy, psuedo-telepathy, and precognition) have gotten a lot stronger, so he'd probably be able to sense him from a mile off.

[stopinthenameofawe]

oh yes! Yeah Phillip would be fairly easy to pick up. :|; he's scary. Do you think Banagher would track down the feeling to see where it was coming from?

[icy_heavens]

It occurs to me that Toushirou will be able to sense Phillip's creepy powerfulness. That's fun, huh Toushirou?

[darkhourdear]

oh dear. yeaaaaah phillip's power is pretty goddamn overwhelming. and he doesn't know it's there so if toushirou asks about it he'll get a blank stare! 8D

[verbalization]

Well I have a guy right here, Kavi ( Signless from Homestuck ) who is a very mature adult. He is in desperate need of CR, let me tell you. He's a guidance councilor at the high school. Very polite, warm, and caring sort of guy!

Then I just apped in Van ( Vanitas ), who I plan on having being in all that art club stuff. He goes to LHS, obvs.

So either of them have opportunities for many of your kids /o/

[darkhourdear]

Awesome! Neku doesn't have any glaring issues that would get him sent to the guidance counselor, but he'd probably at least be aware of Kavi. Phillip however is in elementary school but his parents have been looking for a shrink to send him too since his old one moved away. :|; I imagine the elementary school counselor doesn't know how to deal with him so maybe something there?

alternatively there's always Adam since he's the band teacher and YOU KNOW THOSE BAND KIDS....

oh my god vanitas and Neku might be CR I never knew I needed. 8D please can we do this thing?
