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?)

Yes exactly

I have this vague idea in my head that it would be fun to have it escalate a little then deflate, but I do not know exactly the best way to do it -- I can have Daylen easily re-contact him via a mixture of meddling and curiosity but really I'd like to have them MEET IN PERSON at some point (which I know Anthony is reticent about b/c zombie -- but I suppose it could be an attempt to prove he really is one?) and Daylen to have another minor panic and possible darkspawn echo

Or maybe echo back a shield spell or something and then they can both stare at each other in confusion and dismay. ZOMBIE AND MAGE

[scramasax]

Y'know wot Anthony could likely succumb to hope that showing himself in person could be beneficial for that purpose - not cheerfully of course but because 'tis oh so crucial to remove skepticism in the current state of things! I'm unsure where you'd imagine, from there, but that's a small easily-settled thing. =|a

And oh whatever thou dost please do Echo. 8|b Arrange for a delayed shield spell via say unwitting crossing-paths with a Blood Key beforehand and have it pop up upon recalling the darkspawn if you must, if that'd not be much too much of a whammy.

Which was far too many words in which to restate aye, whatever you'd please to have ensue!

[persuaderoll]

I Imagine he'd PANIC but -- well, especially if I give him an echo (and especially if it causes him to reflexively spell cast), there is only so much denial you can upkeep when stuff is right in front of you. I think pushed that far he'd give way to taking things seriously and also asking questions to satisfy his curiosity.

ALSO part of me wants Anthony to have the satisfaction of Daylen going from utter scepticism and thinking him depressed/insane/etc to being the one doing something impossible, like spell casting, I will not lie.

Then they would probably end up going the other end of the spectrum of ridiculous and calmly drinking tea or something while discussing how wacky everything is because Daylen is British and that is how he deals with a crisis

[scramasax]

Pahh if you can forgive my lateness in responding again then be assured beyond doubt that a measure of mutual startling followed by rapid well-let's-start-that-again feather-smoothing and subsequent gentlemanly discussion of curiosities would be a priceless thing I likewise would not deny.

[persuaderoll]

Yes that is the perfect way to describe it yes. I have set up a thing which should variously trigger chaos echos with Alistair (Team HA HA THIS JOKE IS GETTING OLD ISNT IT) and then once he is suitably I can maybe hit Anthony up.

Does he need to be told someone's number to private message them or if he's spoken to them already (via his laptop) can he... click them somehow to send a message... MAGICAL NETWORKS, SO PERPLEXING

[scramasax]

Then our vision is similar and it pleeeases me enormously that you find it to be~ Do so indeed! 8|b And once you find the figurative pieces are in place and it strikes thee than it shall be my delight.

Easy rule of thumb is that a person's number is viewable for memorization and/or other noting to private message them with if they've used it in a method that would've left it physically present - for example if they write it down to connect as opposed to dialing it into a phone and calling into the network, etc. Thus as Anthony had started off hand-writing on his end of these two's first conversation the number shall be there at Daylen's disposal.

[persuaderoll]

Hooray! then it shall be done once I have made Daylen's life difficult enough to warrant making it worse! :)
