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?)

Character: Thomas Anders don't you dare call him by his first name he definitely didn't introduce himself to you as anything but Anders
Pre-Incarnation: Anders (Dragon Age)

Canonically: Anders is an opinionated mage and fighter for mage freedom; he also runs a free clinic for refugees and feeds stray cats. Somehow this leaves him spare time to trail around after the player-character protagonist whenever you need a healer in your party.

Reincarnated: Anders is a veterinarian! Sort of. He's only licensed in his home state, and having defaulted on massive student loans, he's trying to steer clear of mainstream banking and is relying on unskilled work in the underground economy at present. He's driven his battered old Volvo wagon across the continent to hang around Locke City for the foreseeable future. Interests include animal rights, environmental preservation, and class warfare -- causes for which Anders believes radical action is justified.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Grew up in Southern California, did his undergrad work at UC Berkeley, went to vet school at UC Davis, went back home to Southern California for a brief stint of soulless despair. Fell in with a bunch of radical activists like a cross between PETA and Zendik Farm only more interested in action and less in image. I'm open to previous CR opportunities from any of these places. He would have done clerky/retaily sorts of work for rent money in college, as he does now in Locke City, so you can have met him doing a thing like that as well.

Open/Wanted CR: Since Anders is pretty much brand-new to Locke City, he's only had two Echoes as yet, one a memory and one a minor material object. None of his magic abilities has been regained. I'd like to lay the groundwork for him to recognize what those powers are, by having him meet other healer and/or magic-user types, if possible -- especially since in his pre-canon life, mage liberation was pretty much Anders' raison d'etre.

Anders loves animals, especially cats, and will gravitate toward people who have pets.

People who have unusual belief systems or ways of looking at the world would be interesting for Anders to meet and bounce ideas off.

And finally, despite his shrillness where politics and causes are concerned, Anders is a sociable guy and can go the extra mile with his extroverted self to make your introvert's acquaintance, if you have one you'd like him to meet.

Other Info: I apped him as currently working in a non-chain mom-and-pop kind of local copy shop, mainly so he can run off manifestos on the copy machines when he wants.

Anything Else?: latest of comments I am sorry! holidays grr. ALSO this is the first AU game I've ever played in, so I feel a bit shaky and new to this. Guidance is welcome, give me a gentle nudge if I misstep.

My plurk is violentgazebo -- feel free to give me a shout!
