The All Purpose CR/Plotting Meme - February 2014

[scramasax]

The All-Purpose CR/Plotting Meme

Another round of the CR/Plotting Meme - you know what do do!

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?)

POTENTIAL CHARACTERS

[scramasax]

MARTIN THE WARRIOR | REDWALL yes you read that right

[youngestone]

Okay it's not happening just yet because I need to try and track down a copy of Luke the Warrior BUT

Character: Joseph (subject to change)
Pre-Incarnation: Martin the Warrior

Preincarnation: It's Martin the Warrior, think Reepicheep only less hammy if you don't know Redwall. Also with a badasss sword and a penchant for sticking around and haunting/popping into the dreams of people hundreds of years after he died. (And if you think those appearances would be things I echoed back beyond the ones in Redwall and Mattimeo you are crazy I'm sorry but that's twenty books XD;;)

Reincarnation: He'd be the pet of some Catholic school third grade class or something at first since it's a freaking Redwall mouse. Or maybe a proper churchmouse, idk yet.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Kids in that class? Pet shop owner?

Open/Wanted CR: He'd be a plain mouse at first. I don't know what I could really suggest here unless someone wants to app a cat XD

Other Info: Again, idk. Mawi's more or less convinced me to try this just by existing so I'm still in the planning stages.

Anything Else?: Nope

[reapsthewind]

Character: Chris Starsky
Pre-Incarnation: Starscream

Started out as a PhD student doing research into drone avionics and drone programming; taught undergrad math classes. Took a break from school to get a part time job as a computer engineer at her friend's company; had to leave the job once she developed robot limbs that barely worked and drained iron and sugar from her blood. Eventually developed a power source for them so she can function normally, but didn't have a job for a while. NOW she can disguise herself as a normal human again, SO JOB GET hopefully?

House was recently trashed by a meeting. Also, while she used to be one fo the more level-headed / practical people on the network, she's been becoming increasingly unstable / brutal in her methods.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: CURRENTLY her uncle is Elian Price. I already have worked out possibilities for her siblings so that's not open. Previous friends: she went to MIT, is kinda nerdy and plays a lot of video games, yells on Reddit a lot, hangs out in goth clubs.

Open/Wanted CR: nyaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Other Info: god I don't even know man I'm winging it at this point

Chris is going to be in on the raid. No idea what Echos I'll give her, I'm open to suggestions.

Anything Else?:

oh right my plurk is lucid_seraph for ye plots

[idealofhope]

Calvin feels pretty guilty about being part of the fight that rekt Elian's house, so if Chris wants to stay at a rich dude's house for a while, he's got a spare room!

He also has a PS4.

[radiantchicken]

Character: Tater the Parrot
Pre-Incarnation: Paragon Supreme Torin, mentor to the Super Sentai team known as the Kyoryugers.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: He was a parrot in the zoo, so...that kind of limits it.

Open/Wanted CR: Do you need a mentorly talking parrot in your character's life? DO YOU? Seriously, I'm up for anything, but the more he sees and learns, the more his mentor instincts want to kick in. He could also use some musically-inclined CR, because music is very important in his canon.

Other Info: I need/want him to go see the piece of snakeskin down in the tunnels, because I plan for his Echo from that to get him his human-sounding voice back. At that point, he'll be going by the name of Torin on the network and communicating via audio for the most part. Basically, he'll sound just like a human until he does something weird and parrot-like.

Anything Else?: I'm at Airdra for plotting, as always.

[titansno]

Soooo I've got a fairly wealthy former bird-themed superhero trying to get a team together.

hint hint nudge nudge eh eh eh

[scramasax]

Character: Anthony Janvier
Pre-Incarnation: Anthony - Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: His immediate family consists of only two caring but workaholic parents who've been defaulted to in assumption as having educationally-related professions - neither actively desired (unless-well on the off chance one might be entertaining the idea of apping canonmate Paul Luther in which case I'd be fascinated by the potential to lay most anything out) and likely to have by now dropped patience and declared him runaway. He also has quite a host of relatives French-Catholic in background, including one married aunt and several cousins he was particularly close to when he was small. Agreeable, well-read, and eager-to-please as he is, he was also a bit of a teacher's pet in elementary and much of middle school.

Open/Wanted CR: Anything that'll stick is very much welcome - particularly so would be anyone he can be himself around. So to speak. And especially in the form of p'raps more casual CR around his own age and a bit of a challenge in the form of encouragement/inspiration and/or something to the tune of rivalry or similarly less-harmonious CR - he's not notably clashed with anyone thus far!

Other Info: He is still as of this comment staying with John Mitchell as a neighbor of Nick Burkhardt - and although I'd not want to speak too soon, I would not be uninterested in tentatively feeling about for a contingency plan on that front!

For less-immediate notes, he's going to be entering the farmhouse on the mission forthcoming and in the meantime has both a short sword and a longsword up for lending toward any sword-related Echoes; and is going to be there for the eventual rampage of Wise Snake. He's currently sans one eye, and without any other arrangements to bring it to pass, I expect some mess during that rampage is going to cost him his other one - after that he's going to finally start getting Echoes arcane in nature.

Anything Else?: Not particularly!

[detectivetroll]

I've been meaning to bring this up to you, as I've been thinking about it off and on, but as far as contingency plans go, Anthony would be more than welcome to stay with Nick!

[chalicejoker]

Character: Hajime Aikawa
Pre-Incarnation: Hajime Aikawa/The Joker Undead/Kamen Rider Chalice

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: His family runs a Japanese restaurant called Aikawa's, and he's got plenty of cousins and extended family. He's lived in Locke his whole life, and your character might have gone to school with him.

Open/Wanted CR: COME AT ME, MONSTER BROS and really, anyone who needs a horrible giant bug in their lives. Hajime's been around the network for a while, and he's open for helping people deal with this as long as they're not being trolls/jerks/unpleasant about it all.

Other Info: He is one of the resident monster people, and he's been far more open about being a horrible giant bug than he's been about things like, say, being able to transform into a cool armored form with matching bicycle.

Anything Else?: I'm at Airdra, as always.

[amajin]

Jin should come to the shop sometime. I bet he could use some halfway decent Japanese cooking. He's pretty well assimilated but his grandparents used to cook for him and he would probably like to get some of that nostalgia going.

[needsmorezippers]

Character: Neku Sakuraba
Pre-Incarnation: Dead kid who is super grumpy until he learns the power of FRIENDSHIP

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Neku goes to LCHS and is on the track team and in the art club. He was in band and the math team in middle school. He also is involved in (legal) graffiti painting and lives around Japantown.

Open/Wanted CR: ANYTHING. Neku needs more friends, specifically.

Other Info: Don't have any plans for Neku right now, other than he's being super suspicious of Skyler being a Blood Key.

---

Character: Melissa Lyre
Pre-Incarnation: Cop turned monster hunter turned vampire.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: She's a cop, and she spends a lot of time at bars. Literally this is most of how you would know her.

Open/Wanted CR: I would like for her to talk to more network people in general, especially non-cops since they make up a good chunk of her CR right now. XD

Other Info: She's kind of super untrusting of the network right now, so people who can convince her to officially side with it for real would be cool.

---

Character: Phillip Santorini/Pharos
Pre-Incarnation: Small creepy child who stares at the PC while they sleep. Also kind of the bringer of the apocalypse.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: He's in fifth grade, highly involved in community theater, and plays soccer when it's in season. There's also the possibility of knowing him through his high school aged sister.

Open/Wanted CR: ALL OF IT. Especially would love some teenagers adopting him as a little brother figure. A very creepy little brother figure.

Other Info: Did I mention Phillip is kind of creepy? Because he is. Also, he can't die, but he's not telling people that for now.

---

Character: Adam Hart/Demyx
Pre-Incarnation: A nobody who likes to pretend he's a wuss. He's not.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Friends from college, teachers at LCHS, people involved in the alternative music scene...

Open/Wanted CR: Anything. Adam really needs more CR in general. He also is avoiding the network like the plague so if people could force him into it...

Other Info: Like I said, he's been avoiding the network for the most part. I really do need to get him involved somehow.

[pumpkinbutt]

Oh my gosh your line-up of characters.... *^* I would love to have CR with Neko or Philip! Sam would totally adopt little tiny♥

[shiromadoushi]

Character: Bakura
Pre-Incarnation: Bakura Ryou, Yami Bakura and Thief King Bakura of Yu-gi-oh!


Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Either via school or MMOs or something. He's kinda antisocial.

Open/Wanted CR: Mentor types and those willing to be patient and deal with his antisocial tendencies, friendship speech types (he needs to get his Yuugi echoes in here somehow!) Also questionable morality types since he's going to start slipping down that way as he gets more back.


Other Info: Bakura is currently having some existential quandaries since he's gotten a few echoes back that imply-- or outright state-- that some of his memories are of something that was just a game. He's also starting to really hate his memories of Yami Bakura (and Yami Bakura in general for that matter) and still having trouble dealing with the whole remembering 3 people thing.

Eventually he will be sliding down towards the morality of Thief King, possibly even getting more YB like, but that's a way off.


Anything Else?: Someday, he and Marisa are going to pull off some sort of heist together. They just need a target... any offers? :)

[hollowleg]

Character: Shiro Nakamura
Pre-Incarnation: Zangetsu/Hollow Ichigo, the spirit of Kurosaki Ichigo's zanpakutou (special soul-cutty sword)

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Shiro has plenty of pre-existing CR but I'm always up for more! Former boyfriends/girlfriends, customers at the Magnificent Bakery, students at the culinary institute (though Shiro has graduated).
Open/Wanted CR: Shiro's looking for more people to train with, people to hang out with, anything to get his mind off the emptiness inside him. Other monsters are always good. CANNIBAL CLUB? Cannibal Club.

Other Info: He's gonna be participating in the Alien raid and Wise Snake takedown and generally get to be a badass kind of.

Anything Else?: holeinmysoul

[part_time_overlord]

^ Other monster. He JUST regained the memory of being defeated by the legendary hero, retreating to another dimension, but declaring his intention to return and subjugate all humans while doing so. It's only going to go downhill from there.

[pumpkinbutt]

Character: Samhain Roi-Paume
Pre-Incarnation: Halloween (Witch Hunter)

Her app is here but basically Sam has been kept out of public/private school and most social settings because her parents are a little bit ashamed by her disability. Sam's been in a wheelchair her whole life and she's sort of resigned herself to the fact that she's just going to be a burden on people forever. However she's not a pessimist and is a normal girl her age all things aside! And she needs friends like burning good lord she's so alone :c

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Sam frequents the city hospital! This is for check-ups and such since she's got muscular myopathy (basically her muscle fibres don't work). So anyone who would have gone to the hospital enough in the last 15 years to notice her being there, medical professionals, etc are free to know her!

Her parents work for Thunder Corp. so anyone who works for them may know one/both of them? And know that they have a daughter but they've never brought her to any functions and never introduced her to anyone.

Open/Wanted CR: Someone who will not mind taking her out and doing stuff, talking to her in general, that sort of thing! She doesn't really get to go out much or do fun things since she's never really had an opportunity to meet anyone her age long enough to build a friendship.

Other Info: Sam will be going to the public library eventually to restock on things to do! So CR opportunities may be had there as well c:

Anything Else?:

[deludings]

i dunno but i want shuuya to befriend her in someway for sure in some way yo

[theboywiththebook]

Character: Henry Mills/Cassidy
Pre-Incarnation:
Uh quick brief summary, this kid is from a show about fairy tales and goes on all kinds of whacky adventures. And by whacky I mean heart crushing.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities:
-Possibly cops that worked on his parents murder case in Boston
-babysitters
-kids from school
-Possibly knowing about his parents murder via internet


Open/Wanted CR:
Parental figures. Henry's really not keen on his foster parents because of often getting thrown back into the system, so someone from the network willing to parent him would be fun.

Also friends. Lots of friends. This kid needs to open up a bit and he's started to do that.

Other than that? At some point I want it to be made clear that Henry's parents are in fact dead. Only one person really knows about it and that's it.

Other Info:
Well, when people can leave Locke and not lose their memories, Henry might go pester some of the adults to take him to Boston. He'll say it's important or come up with some excuse so he can see his parents graves.

He can probably be found at school during the week, or around town during the weekend. He don't need no guardians to bring him places. Rebel lyfe.

Henry usually now is just trying to figure out what he can do to help beat the aliens. He's got that power and he totally wants to be helpful in some way.

Henry usually likes being left alone but that's boring so go bug him. A lot. He usually ends up reading and because of a recent echo he got his storybook back so he'll be reading that for awhile.


Anything Else?: contact me on christhehost at plurk for anything!

[gogoghostpowers]

you said i am now obligated to have CR with you

well, my friend

let's tango

[italktofish]

Character: Arthur Curry
Pre-Incarnation: AQUAMAN, KING OF THE SEVEN SEAS

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Arthur has had a lot of random odd jobs in a lot of places, the most notable of which was as a cruise ship entertainer. He's currently a school bus driver for one of the local middle schools. His family's all back in Texas for the most part with the exception of Granny Curry, who is also on the network.

Open/Wanted CR: Arthur thinks all this is pretty OUTRAGEOUS, and he thinks everyone else should, too. He will cheer up characters or try to drag them into SHENANIGANS, no problem.

Other Info: Arthur's also starting to ACT like a superhero, and he and Calvin have just had a SUPERHEROIC ENCOUNTER with some Blood Keys, wherein Arthur regained super strength on top of a bit of invulnerability.

Anything Else?: I'm Airdra, as usual.

[sjokolade]

I'm tagging him no questions asked when I get the chance.

[epimethean]

Character: Wheatley
Pre-Incarnation: Wheatley, except a robot. From Portal.

High-strung and neurotic. Talks at 90 miles an hour and never ever shuts up ever. He is sort of a dick, kind of dense, and mildly delusional. DESPERATE FOR APPROVAL and a little bit off-the-wall eccentric, but generally an okay dude.

In robot flavor he is a talking metal beachball built specifically to make other robots dumber. As you can probably imagine, that is not very good for one's self esteem or sanity.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: He works as a programmer in a tech firm and is basically a big loser who lives by himself in a crappy apartment but you may or may not have seen him around town wearing terrible plaid and riding a shitty moped RIP SHITTY MOPED THE SNAKES KILLED IT. He's got no family in the country because he is super British and not From Here, but he's been in Locke for a few years so I'm pretty much game for anything if you want to work out some pre-established CR!

Open/Wanted CR: I would love anything and everything. People his age! People to fight with! People who listen to him and tell him he's smart! People who don't! Fellow tech-savvy types! People to drag him out of his comfort zone and don't care how much he whines! Moving into Season 2 I'd like him to start realizing that he may not have been even remotely human, so perhaps other people in the same boat, especially robot types!

Other Info: Complete toolbox. He likes talking and sitting in coffee shops on his laptop and kind of hates the whole network deal and wants to meet some of you crazy numbers club people in person. He's REALLY easy to rile up if you have a character who likes to rile people up, but he is also a good conversation partner?? He will teach you about computers if you are nice to him and ask him politely. He has completely useless flashlight eyes.

Anything Else?: I'm always available for plotting and chatting and stuff on plurk at whitticus LET'S BE FRIENDS.

[darkinferno]

LET'S DO IT. Dante would get so much of a kick out of riling him up it's not even funny. He'd also be the sort to get him talking just to hear how much he knows, so IF WHEATLEY CHATTERS FOREVER DANTE WILL LISTEN AND ABSORB.

and also snark at him

because that's what dantes do.

I COULD SEE COFFEE SHOP WORKING IF NOTHING ELSE, all we need is a way to get the two of them to figure out that each other is one of the numbers club.

[destinedforrock]

Character: Cinderella
Pre-Incarnation: Rarity - My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Any especially-notable pre-game CR connections would have would be limited to the family of four who make up her owners - Mr. Jeremy, Mrs. Pearl, nine-year-old Linda, and six-year-old Michael Bell - any of whom would be perfectly fine to bring into the numbers-mess if not-excessively-decided and convenient and wanted matches for anything anyone might have in mind.

Open/Wanted CR: None specific in the slightest! She's fine and, on my end, definitely enjoyable to bounce off of most anyone, though anyone who she may have the chance to meet - or draw her out of her pasture within any circumstance to meet them - would be a particular joy!

Other Info: With the sprouting of her horn she's needed to bite the figurative bullet and come clean on a few need-to-know secrets to the Bell family, and with more out in the open she's a bit freer for open socialization.

Her horn's also given her the ability to channel magic - with her two talents being dowsing for crystals and gemstones and telekinesis, both skills allowing her to explore and likely Echo aspects of Rarity's status as an artissste! Discussing aesthetics and/or potential adventures in tailoring for either soon or the future ought to be dandy as well.

Other than that, she's got no immediate plans except that she's harboring Luke Kokiren for the near future and the two of 'em might be riding off into battle against Wise Snake when the time comes!

Anything Else?: Neigh.

[needsmorezippers]

So! Phillip becomes friends with the pony y/n???

[envisaging]

Character: Aria Megido aka Aradia Megido @ eras
Blurb: She's a fairly cheerful and friendly girl who likes history and a variety of nerdy things, and she lives with her sister in Japantown. She's 16 and therefore a high school student, though she also works part-time at her grandmother's antique shop (also in Japantown) and does occasional babysitting gigs. She can be found in Japantown, at the high school, at the library, or...anywhere. She really likes geo cacheing and does it around town. Also, she does cross-country track at school, but that is the only sport/official school thing she's involved in.
Pre-Network CR Opportunities: I am honestly up for family/friends whatever plotting whenever anyone wants! Or anything plotting tbh. Basically ways to know her are the things above: high school track, babysitting, working at the antique shop, running into her geo cacheing, etc.
Open/Wanted CR: ANYTHING'S COOL.
Other Info: I pretty much covered it all but basically Aria is very social and willing to help out.

Character: Sophie Bai/Toph Beifong @ metalbent
Blurb: 13-year-old middle school student. She's sort of blunt and snarky still, but also is more polite and willing to work with people/ask for help in her current incarnation, partly because her family support system is a lot more awesome and less overprotective. She's still blind, and has a cane, although she got back her foot-sight. Sophie really likes space stuff and giving people stupid nicknames and movies with lots of action and dialogue. She also is a fan of music in the listening-to-it sense, not the making-it sense.
Pre-Network CR Opportunities: I'd be interested in family stuff for her, or friends pre-network, whenever people want to work stuff in. Sophie's probably got the least ways to know her previously, but I am more than willing to work stuff out with people - if you're a middle school student, there's a chance of knowing her in person, though.
Open/Wanted CR: ALL THE THINGS, honestly. I have no concrete ideas of what or who but just everyone ever.
Other Info: Not really!

Character: Sierra Callahan @ envisaging
Blurb: 20-year-old girl from a family of four (she has a younger brother) who works as a secretary at a local veterinary clinic. When she's not doing that, she attends classes in the four-year veterinary technologist program at Locke U. Fairly friendly, but she's also the most cautious of the three re: network information. Also her hair is currently light brown.
Pre-Network CR Opportunities: SIERRA COULD USE FRIENDS. I have no family plans for her either so I guess if someone wants that, there's that! WAYS TO HAVE KNOWN HER would be going to the vet she works at, going to Locke U, or going to high school with her or such.
Open/Wanted CR: anything tbh.
Other Info: Not really!

[originaloddcouple]

Sophie and Dians really need to interact again for idiocy.

[youngestone]

Character: Killian Ryan
Pre-Incarnation: Kíli

Same kinda scruffy eighteen year old he's been since I apped him only now he's got two jobs and on Thursday will find out that this second job is for his paternal uncle (we planned it for last week when we did the log but then we moved it up, sorry about that!). Needless to say things are kinda piling up for him and this was not planned to happen yet but then castmates happened XD

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Unless someone wants to app in someone from his mom's side, he's got no options here. If you do, though, poke me! They're Irish, a big family, and currently in Alaska for as long as I need them to be because I needed I reason for them not be here.

Open/Wanted CR: All the CR, really. He's been at the arts and crafts fair regularly too, selling his stuff though now that he's working for Thorir that may change a bit.

Also if someone has a tall female character that you wouldn't mind having an awkward short eighteen year old try and fail to hit on lemme know because that's something I want to happen at some point

Other Info: I think I've covered everything :|a

Anything Else?: Nope :D

[mood2wiingiing]

Character: Soren Castor
Pre-Incarnation: Sollux Captor

that one troll kid who likes being an asshole to everyone on the network but really has been trying to start helping people out. mostly he's just a butt though.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Anyone who would have been friends pre-network wit Soren would be awesome! He was a freshman at Locke High until December so anyone around that age who was a particularly geeky kid (in the vidya/computer way) would be awesome. Other than that I think I'm good, his sis is already in game and his Dad is too worked out as an NPC between us that I don't think he is so playable (although if someone was really interested it might be cool?)

Open/Wanted CR: I really just want Soren to start making actual friends. He's to the point now where he's stopped trolling everyone so much and started trying to help out and accomplish things so anyone willing to befriend him and help facilitate that would be great.

Other Info: I can't think of much. He pretty much trolls everyone on the network so a thread getting started is pretty easy, but anything offline is a bit harder. He isn't going to school any more so that's out, he's got horns and yellow blood now so he doesn't even go out much any more, but I'm sure we can work something out if anyone wants to!

Anything Else?: I can't think of anything!

[moarnomsplz]

I would love to have teenage alien shenangians with Alex and Soren! Alex is going to check out Miles's building to run around in--maybe they could meet up there at some point?

[beforeweproceed]

Character: William "Bill" Black
Pre-Incarnation: Walter Beck - Fable

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: He is working as a security guard in an undefined shopping area (open-air - he's not so fond of anywhere cramped =|), was reasonably sociable in his younger days, and is happily married with kids and grandkids (one of whom is Phillip Santorini) - pre-existing CR most anywhere would be welcomed merrily!

Open/Wanted CR: Absolutely anything would be dandy to give a go - he's liable to lend 'imself especially well to mentor-mentored dynamics (reluctant or otherwise), butting heads, comrades-in-arms respectful relationships, and bantering friendships.

Other Info: Like my others, he's going to be present at the rise of Wise Snake - and is sitting out the farmhouse mission. Unexpected/sweeping-into/spur-of-the-moment shenanigans/adventure in the meantime ought to be welcome!

Anything Else?: Nothing of note!

[needsmorezippers]

Soooo just warning you. Planning on Phillip's Tier 2 for the Wise Snake battle to be this. So yeah. That's gonna be a thing. :|;;;

[endthiscycle]

Character: Winry Thalberg
Pre-Incarnation: Winry Rockbell. Lived in Amestris (essentially Germany) in a world where alchemy, chimeras, and homunculi (oh my!) existed. Was an automail (mechanical prothestics) expert.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: She used to live in Germany but would visit family in Locke City every summer. Also frequents the internets so they could have met there. She and her twin brother run a popular gaming channel.

Open/Wanted CR: Anything and everything.

Other Info: Pretty smart girl especially tech wise. Also pretty sporty and is especially into fencing/boxing.

Anything Else?: Noooot much else in mind right now.

[deludings]

gaming channel huh?? shuuya probably knows about it in some way. if he puts two and two together if they ever meet, he'd be really excited over it!

[dominateartimus]

Character: Xander Jarle
Former soldier of the military during 2002 - 2006, was honorably discharged due to the death of his twin brother, Conleth. Did talk to a non-numbered therapist who suggested to record his days on a voice recorder, takes anti-depressants, sleeping pills and occasionally smokes to make it through the day. He moved to Locke in the middle of August with his black Siamese cat, Connor. He's now a grocery store baker, owns a second cat and is presently at war with himself due to his preincarnation's echoes.

Pre-Incarnation: Sandrath
An arch-angel before being corrupted by a substance known as 'demon blood' during several wars. After many years of mentoring another angel and doing nothing, he found a vessel to search the surface for answers, before another angel interfered and made the vessel compensate for two beings instead of one. Along the way, he got some new abilities, became a little bit more crazier before siding with the beings of below. He's a fallen arch-angel now and enjoying his new life in a body of his own, with some interesting opponents springing up from time to time.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Extended family, old class-mates from elementary to high school (although Xander's family moved about every few years), military relationship with him, his brother or father. Ex-roomates or ex-boyfriends / girlfriends.

Open/Wanted CR: I'm open to any type of CR.
Although, he can be a bit socially awkward at first if it is a friendly conversation since he tends to distance himself from others. He gets better over time, but he's a bit stubborn about opening up about himself.

Other Info:
He recently announced to the network that he is resigning to deal with a few things, most of it is echo-related, but he finally accepted that he has been emotionally compromised due to several events. His incident with David Proud has him concerned about turning against allies and possibly harming them.

As for locating Xander, it isn't very hard since he usually keeps to the bakery section of his work place or the appropriate aisles if he's out getting ingredients and usually spotted walking everywhere. He has listed the street intersections of his apartment on the network about three times now, but he wouldn't appreciate having a stranger drop by without any notice before-hand.

Anything Else?: I can be reached through plurk with: joccatpaw or private messaged on this account.

I'm going to be on hiatus from roughly the 7th to 21st.

[decelerate]

Character: dallen sutherland.
Pre-Incarnation: davesprite.

dallen is not as rambly as davesprite is, more prone to keeping his responses short & sweet if he could help it. he's direct and to the point most of the time, and appears to be a seriously lazy/unmotivated person (much to the dismay of his twin sister, harper oops) but mostly he feels there's not much point in trying too hard anyway.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: as always, more pre-network friends are welcome, but classmates and stuff too! he attends locke city high, and usually stays out of trouble. he likes treating his friends out to dinner just because he has the cash and really has no use for it, to begin with. he's got a sweet ride if you want a lift! usually stays out of trouble unless the bullies get too rowdy with people, but yes.

Open/Wanted CR: any friends who can get past the first stage of friendship with him is a-okay with me. he kind of makes it ridiculously hard to break down his barriers and likes to keep people at arm's length. ANYONE TO GEEK OVER PHOTOGRAPHY is more than welcome, too. or any music-loving people for sure, to echo up his love for mixing ill beats and listening to obscure bands no one's ever heard of.

Other Info: mostly i'm looking forward to writing dallen befriending his canon buddies and then echoing back to realize oh wait, i'm the second dave, why would they be friends with me—I MEAN WHAT. he likes to hang out at the mall, or buy ridiculous amounts of pastries for his sister, etc.

Anything Else?: i am @ electrify! also just c&p'd most of the last cr comment because none of these plans have changed yet. sob.

[gogoghostpowers]

I STILL WANT DANNY AND DALLEN TO INTERACT. at lunch. or something. i don't even know.

(also he should totally get that awkward passive Key encounter with Chuck, I don't know if Dallen is likely to befriend him after that but if that does happen I think it'd be pretty neat to get some positive CR for Chuck!)

Thorin, Siiri, Blaine

[hustru]

Character: Thorir T Thorsson
Pre-Incarnation:Thorin Oakenshield

Pre-Network CR Opportunities:
- he has tons of kids between the age of 15 and 29, plus grandchildren of 1 and 4. Maybe your teenage/young adult character goes/went to school/nursery with one of them?
- speaking of family, if you want to be related to him, there are all the options. His family has a lot of Icelandic heritage and relatives, but some in the US as well.
- he's active in local politics: He has been on various school boards as a parent's representative, the store has it's fingers in all kinds of local charities/sponsors stuff, and the family is a staunch supporter of the local handball team (and its club's development).
- he went to school in Locke himself and in his mid-twenties went to college there. He also was a model in his late teens/early twenties, based in London but traveling around Europe and the world.
- lastly, you could be an employee or your business could have ties with his.

Open/Wanted CR:
- Thorir will tell his wife sometime in late February I think, and he'll need characters with visible powers/obvious physical changes for that because how do you prove the network. So that.
- Everything is wanted! He'll probably be leaning more towards talking to older characters, but I'd have a lot of fun with teenagers that he for some reason has to do shit with...

Other Info: He's still getting settled and having his first echoes, there are no real plans right now except for him figuring out his preincarnation relatedness with Fil and Kils.



Character: Blaine Frost
Pre-Incarnation: Ymir

Pre-Network CR Opportunities:
- She works as a bouncer, so other bouncers and security people and partygoers
- she's been active in the shady underbelly of Locke, especially with drug things, for six years now, and been drifting in and out of various groups
- she's also been in the child care system for three years so that is an option as well.
- and she's been at school over the last three years as often as was strictly necessary.

Open/Wanted CR: Nothing in particular, though she's a jerk so negative CR is more likely with her.

Other Info: If her echoes get granted, she'll have to stop going out/leave her job by the middle of February. So she'll be bored at home and also scared about what is happening and about having to rely on people????



Character: Siiri Pulkkinen
Pre-Incarnation: Sweden

Pre-Network CR Opportunities:
- she works at a coffee shop
- she's doing her PhD in biochemistry at the uni and in a research project in connection with that
- also she's frequently visiting the Nordic church in Locke

Open/Wanted CR: I'd love for her to find more friends. She needs people can force their way into her life, basically, or non-humans who aren't super harsh.

[espigeonage]

Man I sort of want Julien in Thorir's family somewhere but that's really soapy. idk, at best his father-in-law is some remote kin. Julien's on the outs with his mother, but his sister moved out there and she's still tight with him so idk.

...Still soapy. /laughs

[sucrosity]

Character: Yoko Aznable
Pre-Incarnation: Yoko Usami, Yellow Buster

Formerly super spy child soldier orphan with super powers and the metabolism to match. Now she's an overachieving high school senior who plays tennis and runs LCA's volunteer club. She has an obnoxiously nerdy dad and shares absolutely none of his interests. (Or so she says.) Somewhat prickly and tsundere, but she's more socially aware now and likes being nice to younger kids. She owns two hissing cockroaches and a cat!

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: She's a sociable senior at Locke City Academy. She goes to local school sports games now that it's the tennis off-season and does a lot of volunteer work at the hospital, specifically the pediatric wing. She spends time at the local pet shop once or twice a month.

Open/Wanted CR: School age friends would be nice! Older women, specifically non-teacher types. She lives alone with her dad, and while her mom is present in her life, she doesn't live in Locke and isn't Numbered.

Other Info: She'll be echoing back her tsundere rabbit robot dad sooner rather than later, as well as her superpower (and the metabolism). She's going on the alien mission and otherwise I am flying by the seat of my pants.

Anything Else?: Someone should shoot lasers at her.

[swissarmyjesus]

how would you like to fly by the seat of your pants with me? *waggles eyebrows*

by which i mean, it's basketball on-season so if she does go to sports games she probably knows him as That One Kid Who Got Stupidly Good All Of A Sudden This Month??? or something? I don't know. I just need more LCA kids to interact with, okay.

Danny / Jovan / Chuck

[gogoghostpowers]

Because I am too lazy for separate comments this time.

Character: Danny Fenton, a kid with phasing powers who gets in way too much shit
Pre-Incarnation: Danny Fenton, a kid who's secretly half-ghost and moonlights as the superhero Danny Phantom in his ghost-infested town

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: I WILL ALWAYS TAKE MORE OF YOUR LOCKE HIGH CR, BE IT STUDENTS OR TEACHERS. GIVE ME ALL OF IT. ALL OF IT.

Open/Wanted CR: Danny is starting to be a little less awkward/scared of everything, so I'd like to try and foster that! More buddy-buddy CR where he can really get comfortable, or. More negative CR. I'd love to try and develop more of that! Hehehehe.

Other Info: I have plans for Danny with Skyler coming up very soon, next Wednesday actually. If you are a girl at LCHS, you are welcome to assume that you are going to get hit on by Skyler that day. But, if you want to plan something else with Danny-possessing-Skyler, let me know and I'd be happy to (although I'll run it by Mawi first too, just in case!)

Also, I'm p sure he'll be at the alien farmhouse encounter! whoooooo.

---------------------

Character: Jovan Burzek, mild-mannered college student by day and cougar-hunting internet troll by night
Pre-Incarnation: Nathan Young, an enormous asshole with an ASBO whose shenanigans will not be stopped even by death.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Family friends, which can be easily retconned (see: Alan and the Hunter family). Otherwise, LCHS grads/teachers and current LCU students/faculty!

Open/Wanted CR: I'm looking for absolutely anything, although I do enjoy beefing up his positive CR with IRL encounters and whatnot.

Other Info: I ACTUALLY HAVE NO PLANS....somebody please rope this piece of shit into something hahahaha....

-----------------------

Character: Chuck Reyes, a Mexican expat and fresh Blood Key who is absolutely appalled by this network.
Pre-Incarnation: Rex Salazar, a kid with robot powers trying to save the world from a near apocalypse.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Chuck only moved to Locke at the start of the school year, so there's not much for him here. Fellow LCA students/faculty, however few of you there are. He's varsity basketball, so if your character is the type to SPORTS and is in high school, they could meet that way? And obviously, fellow Keys and those who've encountered Keys. I'm open to retconning encounters if anyone wants!

Open/Wanted CR: Since Keys are supposed to be laying low, I think it'd be funny if passive encounters with Chuck just casually in the street led to echoes for some people. He would not have ANY IDEA why that just happened.

Otherwise, CR with him is likely to be negative...but hey, maybe some positive can happen too! I don't know. I have no idea what i'm doing. help.

I'd like to get some CR with people who have more obvious echo mutations, so that Chuck could get some echoes himself of EVOs. This goes double/triple/quadruple for those turning into robots or Eva characters. I am going to milk you people for echoes like you would not believe.

Other Info: Chuck is likely becoming a triple agent for the Keys. I don't know when, he'd need some specific echoes to make it happen first, and I don't know exactly where I'm going with this idea just yet, but. If/when it happens, I will be very careful about it and double-checking with everyone about everything, so that no info gets leaked without players' consent.

Aside from that, I have nothing strictly planned, so. uh. C-COME AT ME, GUYS???

Re: Danny / Jovan / Chuck

[needsmorezippers]

There's a part of me that thinks it would be really, really hilarious for Chuck and Phillip to get non-network CR. Since... Phillip is an apocolypse monster who's been involved in the murder of a blood key. But he's just a cute kid right???

[idealofhope]

Character: Calvin Kent, professional ball-throw-and-catch man for Locke City's pro baseball team.
Pre-Incarnation: Supes

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Right now Calvin's immediate family is limited to his mother and father and if anybody would be interested in playing one of them, creating someone else in his immediate family, playing a part of his extended family or really, any kind of general pre-network CR, I'd be okay quietly retconning where necessary. What I'd be really, really interested in is if anybody would want to play one of his teammates on the Thunderbolts, Locke City's baseball team. If that sounds appealing to you, please hit me up, 'cause I'd love to make it happen.

More obviously, being a pro athlete on a good team and an activist who gets involved in stuff throughout the city, he's a reasonably prominent figure therein and virtually anybody would be fine to recognize who he is. He likes to meet fans, sign autographs, talk to people on Twitter, etc., so having met him or talked to him is totally possible too.

Open/Wanted CR: Calvin's starting to get more involved in Numbers stuff and his personality dictates he's gonna wanna help other Numbers folk with their problems if he can. So if anybody needs help from a guy with a couple superpowers and a fantastic jawline, here's your guy.

Also, he's offering his house to anybody who needs a place to stay or just a place to hang out for a while due to Numbers-related crap (like, uh, snakes blowing up your house). It's awesome, he's got a pool table and a big screen TV AND a PS4. It's awesome.

Other Info: Don't got much in the way of plans except to try and get him involved is what stuff I can, have him help people, slowly become more Supes-y (my word, I made it, patent pending). I volunteered him for the farm house thingy and I'm planning to have him be around for Wise Snake too.

Anything Else?: AIM: Viewtiful Rekk, Plurk: ViewtifulJeff. HIT ME.

[espigeonage]

Character: Julien Sakazaki
Pre-Incarnation: Yuuya Sakazaki

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Julien's exceedingly social and loves people. He's lived in Locke for about two years this time, he also lived here for a couple years in high school, he's lived all over the country... Friends of whichever levels of closeness, exes, whatever are always welcome!

I'd also love if we could discover he's family with someone. He's kind of a mutt - both parents are Caucasian-Asian hybrids. Julien's mother remarried and lives with her husband and various children somewhere out west. His father is three-quarters white, pretty rich and political, and lives somewhere up north, and has children of his own. Julien's kind of completely ignored by both but has other relatives.

Open/Wanted CR: Friends are always good! I'd like especially anyone who'd try and get through his inner reserve - it's hard to tell that's there because he's really friendly, but there's only so much he'd like to share. He's in a rather bad place, but hiding it and self-medicating with athelas

Also I still want someone who'll reciprocate if he flirts. It's fun!

Other Info: Turning into a harpy thing when Wise Snake rises.

Anything else: Get CR with every Middle-Earth character! Give every Elf echoes!
