The All-Purpose CR/Plotting Meme - Belated for May!

The All-Purpose CR/Plotting Meme

Let's pass away some of the rest of the month's quiet.

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. If you have an app in that has not been processed, please, don't be shy about commenting around for prospective CR and plans on entry - though, of course, remember that plans will be tentative!

For characters of either status, toss up a comment with your character's reincarnated name, pre-incarnated name, canon, and occupation in the subject line. E.x. "Cinderella | Rarity | My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic | Family Pet" In the body, of course, place any information you see fit; 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> <b>Location:</b> [Locke City, NJ or Las Vegas, NV - of course, don't be deterred from starting on building CR over-network between characters in different Echo zones!] <b>Occupation/Position:</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>Haunts:</b> [Are there any particular places your character might be able to have chance meetings, or places where other characters might have seen them?] <b>Potential Subjects of Interest:</b> [On the other hand, what sort of topics that could be brought up over the network might catch their eye - that or what subjects could they easily bond with other characters over?] <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?)

Comments

Wheatley | Portal | just some guy

[epimethean]

Character: Wheatley
Pre-Incarnation: Wheatley, except a robot. From Portal.
Location: Currently Locke City!
Occupation/Position: Freelance programmer/code monkey/one man geek squad.

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's a computer guy 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. 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! He's echoed back his first ROBOT PART, so perhaps other people in the same boat!
Haunts: Coffee shops, libraries, bookstores. Internet cafes. Those kinds of places.

Potential Subjects of Interest: Computer stuff. Robot stuff. Nerd stuff.

Other Info: Complete toolbox. He likes talking and sitting in coffee shops on his laptop. 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 on hiatus for May, so I might be a little slow, but I'm always available for plotting and chatting and stuff on plurk at whitticus LET'S BE FRIENDS.

Arthur would listen to Wheatley and let him talk him to death. I continue to vote yes.

[epimethean]

THANKS ARTHUR. They should definitely get together and hang out.

[knights_king]

some casual drinking and bonding.

arthur can actually afford things now |D

[epimethean]

let's do it

[swissarmyjesus]

ROBOTS, EH

CHUCK IS TURNING INTO ONE OF THOSE AND IS ALWAYS EAGER TO DISCUSS ROBOTS WITH OTHER PEOPLE

He'd also probably be really frustrating to talk to for a coder, since he can basically control tech to make it do whatever he wants. JUST LIKE PROGRAMMING, but with a lot less thinking through algorithms and endless debugging.

MAN Wheatley won't even be mad he'll take anything at this point especially since he's starting to get a little technopathic himself. LET'S MAKE SOME MAGIC
