The All-Purpose CR/Plotting Meme - March 2014

The All-Purpose CR/Plotting Meme

A last round of the CR/Plotting Meme for Season 1 - gear up further for the finale and/or breather and/or entrance into Season 2! And, of course, no end of more general purposes.

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?)

I'd love to know Aria. We can certainly be friends or become friends, or even have previously been close or distant family. Canonwise, it's just like Leo to lose people he cares about.

If Sophie ends up liking textile things and ever visits LCHS, she may run across the drama department if she has family that allows it. Also /glance - if you're family with Elliot, he may be stalking the drama auditorium.

I am up for whatever you would like! I should actually give you their blurbs RATHER THAN JUST MENTIONING THINGS, i.e. Sophie = Toph Beifong, ATLA, Aria = Aradia Megido, Homestuck. And Sophie does visit there for her older friends and could possibly go there! And yes I am talking through that now SO THAT COULD BE A USEFUL THING.

And re: Aria, her family consists of her sister, grandparents, and mother, although none are being played currently; her older sister is her guardian as her mom Travels The World for her writing/photography job, and her grandparents own an antique shop in japantown, if that is of any interest!

[foil]

Canon familiar with both, woo~ I currently play Cat here, but he'll rotate out in season two when his mother moves them.

I bet you Akira hits up that antique shop a lot, so even if they're not related, he's probably very familiar with Aria's grandparents. At current, I may have a potential half-older brother or adoptive parent for Akira, but nothing is cemented so far. No matter what, we're sure to have CR, though!

[gh0stly]

Oh, I see!! Well, let me know how the cookie crumbles re: family, I am definitely sure we can have CR either way and it will be fun! :)

[foil]

Looks like I scored an adoptive parent! *paps Aria* It's a shame he won't be able to see or talk to ghosts. Voices in his head, though. Let's hope it never comes to that.

[gh0stly]

Oh, congrats!! HAHA, yeah..........there are some people who can but everyone else is stuck with text for the moment

ignore the journal

[enchants]

Well if you want to chatter with Leo for fun, or be related in some way. I do have a random doc going while I figure out relations here. If they end up not being related at all, I'd perfectly up for anything like a childhood friend or neighbor or anything like that.

IGNORE MINE TOO

[monarchical]

I am totally cool with childhood friends if not related! :|a Since his paternal grandparents are deceased if I read that right, they could probably be cousins through the maternal line (since Aria's grandparents are around somewhere) if you were interested in that, I'M NOT SURE IF THE ADOPTIVE THING WOULD MAKE THIS HARD OR NOT.

and again!

[enchants]

Cousins could be good, actually. Extended family isn't obligated to take someone up for adoption, especially distant family, and they may just not have had room or resources to care for another teenager.

Let's put them down for cousins that maybe lost touch after playing together a lot when they were younger?

Re: and again!

[monarchical]

I would be completely up for that! Aria has one elder sister (by 3 years) named Mara who was previously played but isn't any longer (MAYBE SOMEDAY AGAIN) and her mother; her father has been mia since a few months after her birth, and her grandparents run the antique shop as I said. ...ALSO HIS GRANDPARENTS NOW. :|b

Re: and again!

[enchants]

Aha! I can do some creative charting by making Aria's mother and Akira's mother half sisters (this is quite possibly the japanese origins of the family, methinks!) It'll account for surname changes and keep them sort of distant. I'll update the chart and see how that looks.

Re: and again!

[metalbent]

Sounds good! All I can mention looking at the chart is that Mara = Aria's sister, not her mom's sister. :0

Re: and again!

[foil]

I knew I'd mess something up with all those boxes. Splitting apart all the charts now. Updated regardless!

Re: and again!

[metalbent]

WHAT PROGRAM ARE YOU USING TO DO THIS...or is it a gdocs feature i am so impresed

Re: and again!

[foil]

GDOCS added apps - and one of them is LucidChart.com
IT IS AMAZING.

Re: and again!

[monarchical]

NO ONE TOLD ME ABOUT THIS BUT I AM SO INVESTIGATING WHEN I GET HOME...
