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: Jake Harrison
Pre-Incarnation: Snow Villiers (FFXIII)

Jake's generally sociable and friendly, though he has a tendency to be sarcastic and playfully pick on people rather than just being happy-friendly. He's 22 and still acts a lot like a college kid, but he's in that transition of trying to actually act like an adult. He fails at this a lot. He gets bored very easily and has no sense of patience, usually having to keep himself preoccupied constantly. He's competitive over the stupidest things (games, how fast something can get finished, etc.) and will compete with others in his head far more often than he'd ever admit out loud. He's also really into cars and motorcycles.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Family - He has an older sister that I'd be cool with someone apping. All I've conceived about her is that she's strong and independent enough that he views her as being on equal standing with him (so he's not in a protective brother role) and he gets along with her as opposed to his parents.

Not family - He's a mechanic in an automotive shop (Armco), so there's plenty of CR opportunity if your character drives. He can do repairs and maintenance for both cars and motorcycles. He wouldn't normally be the one to talk to customers, but if the owner's busy, he'll talk to whoever needs help.

He was born and raised in Locke City and was a fairly sociable during school. He was in several different sports teams from middle to high school, but never stayed in any for more than a year. During high school, he was also one of "those kids" at the DDR machine in arcades. Yeah, you know the ones. He went to the technical institute in the city, too, but he was less sociable during that time. It's more likely that if anyone knows him from before, it'd be either from back in high school or work.

Open/Wanted CR: Pre-established friendships or regular customers he'd recognize would be awesome. Maybe friends who do stupid risky things so he can get dragged into more dangerous events. I love negative CR, too. I'm a bit interested in having rivalry CR of some kind with someone. It could be the friendly sort over stupid petty things or a more serious rivalry. I'm open to ideas on this.

Other Info: Idk, he's got a cat that he's tsun about, treating him like a kid is the best way to honestly get on his nerves, and he doesn't know much of anything regarding movies or tv shows since he never watched them much. Though his canon counterpart's main role is to PUNCH ALL THE THINGS, Jake isn't much of a fighter... but he'll step up if it comes to that. I want to slowly get him over his "stand back and watch" mindset and get more involved in things.

Anything Else?: Terrible things and ridiculous scenarios are my not-so-guilty pleasures.
