The All-Purpose StE CR/Plotting Meme (Open to Current and Potential Characters Alike!)

Old and fresh players both, let us have ourselves another!

The All-Purpose CR/Plotting Meme

A return of the CR Meme - trying something a tad different this time as a combination of regular CR/Plotting Meme and actively-encouraged Relation-By-Reincarnation (or more plainly pre-game CR) meme, open for both plotting between and with characters currently in-game and pre-hashing things out for ones you've got under consideration or pending - see if you might benefit from setting them up with a running start!

For purposes of organization, 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:Tash Arranda, of Star Wars: Galaxy of Fear. I finished an app recently, I'm just trying to decide whether to send it!

Natasha "Nat" Arkadi is fourteen and a well-meaning but weird, creepy psychic kid who's not sure how to connect to people, and would get more well-adjusted and sociable as time went on. Because I'm a rebel. She'd also possibly become twice her age and echo back a lightsaber, much stronger psychic powers, and some spaceships.

Pre-Network CR Opportunities: Nat was orphaned at around the age of three. I have left the cause vague, so there might be something there. There were no close relatives to take her, and she's kind of bounced around between foster homes since she doesn't really connect and has a tendency to discover things people like to keep hidden. (evidence of gambling, guns, alarming pornography on the computer...)

I'm open to relatives - Tash has a strong bond to her brother, so there's some really good echo potential - but there's the restriction where for whatever reason not a lot of effort was made to place her with them. Siblings are possible, but they'd have to have been orphaned around eleven years ago. And again not placed with her.

Also foster parents and the children of such, both current and former. The relationship doesn't need to have fallen apart! Maybe it just didn't work out, they no longer had the resources or environment for her and she didn't seem to mind moving again. Also also: people who might have seen a very bookish quiet kid who sometimes likes to explore off-limits places.

Open/Wanted CR: Hmm. Friends? that's always big. One of Tash's things is that she has a sense for if someone is good and tends to trust them as soon as she picks up on that. Not that she doesn't sometimes trust the wrong people, but it could be interesting! She'd automatically have some kind of connection with network-people and that could be built on.

...There's also the issue of how parts of Star Wars, including her series, hint that some genuinely good people, especially psychic ones feel really good to empaths, who tend to crush on them. She has a big one on Luke Skywalker in the series. So if you have a good-hearted psychic, uh... it's not likely to go anywhere, but it could be cute!

Other Info: A lot of weird things happen in Tash's canon... Potentially she could get some echoes just from reading back through network posts and hey, this is similar to a thing that happened to her!

Some specifics: being on a living planet that's aware of her, trusting someone she's just met for the first time, burying her only loved one and then finding out that he wasn't dead yet, visions of spending a long time doing things while very little time happens in the real world, Project Starscream, meeting someone IRL who she'd known for a long time only from the Internet, ghosts, betrayal, being dropped into the cockpit of an unfamiliar craft and doing just fine, swarms of flesh-eating bugs, possession and mind control, confronting her own prejudices, colonies of clones.

She might echo back spaceships, but also a weird little monster that looks like a baby but kills people whenever she's not watching it. And a virus that would turn her into a ravenous blob monster if she got angry enough. Also she's spent some time as a brain controlling a spider droid while a serial killer ran around being a serial killer in her body, but I don't really see how I could do that in a game without making it a combo app.
