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?)

Oh god, Stefan. I loved him so fucking much, you have no idea.

(Also I feel that there is no way not to write an app for Valdemar characters in ways that are not completely tongue-in-cheek. Because. She names characters things like Moondance with a straight face. Be prepared for the tongue to stay in-cheek for when I complete the thing.)

Same person, just replying to other tags.

Annnd yes. This is so true. I was so lucky to fall in love with a character that when I told other people I didn't sound like I was reading a story about Moon moon the wolf or something.

I love Mags too. He'd adorable.

I haven't been able to get as into the Collegium books as I was able to get into the Valdemar books I read when I was a teen for some reason--I dunno, I might not be the intended audience anymore--but I probably should catch up on them, it looks like there's been like two or three more.

And yes, you totes lucked out with Stefan, his name is so normal!

I picked up the first book when I was stuck on vacation with my family in the middle of a teeny town. I made myself like it and when I re-read I still kind of liked it. It's definitely not as interesting as the last herald mage series or the Hawkbrothers.

I have the first book for Darian's trilogy but sadly haven't read the other two. I really enjoyed the first one but actually held off on the second because a friend told me a female was introduced with the sole purpose of being a love interest and I was really tired of those kinds of stories. I will pick them back up eventually.

I enjoyed Darien's Tale well enough, but after all the GRAND EPICNESS of the Winds/Storms trilogies (+ Black Gryphone) they kind of felt... I dunno, just so strangely small in scope. It was a little bit of a let down, I guess? Idk, man.

On the other hand, Firesong and Silverfox are in the second and third of Darian's, so catching up with them was pretty cool. And like worth it for reading them I think.
