Mizu | Blue Eye Samurai

[artofrevenge]

PLAYER: Sil | they/them
CONTACT: inoctavo or  silyara
ABOUT YOU: Excel spreadsheet nerd & dog parent of two energetic and cuddly shih tzus. My favorite book series include Machineries of Empire by Yoon Ha Lee, Imperial Radch by Ann Leckie, Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo, and The Locked Tomb by Tamsyn Muir among others. I've just started gaming again for the first time in over 8 years. I barely need a clock because my dogs know the schedule, and they'll let me know XD I love log tags something precious, though there's always something to be said for tags I can get in on short breaks at work.

CHARACTER: Mizu | Blue Eye Samurai | 2 years CRAU
CHARACTER INFO:

Mizu is a 16th century mixed race swordsman/swordsmith who's been hunted all her life by her dads and is hunting them for revenge in turn. She's lived most her life as a man and publicly lives as one. She dresses in masculine clothing and should be read as male in game.

Mizu's not generally comfortable around people, what with being rejected by them most her life. She's had a couple years of not being so much a social outcast, but she definitely needs more outgoing people to engage her and not let her go (I mean, that's really how it is in canon XD). She leans on social customs (harder in these multiverse settings) and transactional interactions to feel comfier with stuff, but honestly Mizu's as interested in human connection as most people. She just doesn't trust it.

With CRAU, Mizu's formed a couple meaningful relationships and faced the fact that she wants them. However, making that happen is a work in progress. She's likely to fuck up in relationships of all sorts both because she doesn't have a long history of good experience there and as a messed up coping mechanism to deal with rejection (bc yes making people reject you and proving you right helps... somehow? the math's not mathing). She's recognized she's done that before, but it's a long path ahead.

WANTED CR:

❄️ A few friends. Mizu could use to have at least a couple more important people in her life. It will take some work to get there, but it's a slow burn (yes for friendship or found family) that will hopefully pay off.
❄️ Relatively similar time period folks. Mizu doesn't expect to find many people from within even a couple centuries of her time, so if your character is and especially (but not only) if Japanese, Mizu will be more likely to go out of her way to connect. Because surely you have something in common.
❄️ Smithing customers. This one will take time since Mizu will need to gain access to a forge, but she's a swordsmith (and can also make, you know, amazing kitchen knives etc). I'd love to do plots with people for making them weapons. She'll approach it like canon, where someone is expected to show her all the fighting they do so she can make the right weapon.
❄️ Frenemy/rival. Someone to snark at/with. They may seem not to get along most of the time, but back to the walls, they'll be there. Mizu won't say she will. Might say the opposite. Shut up.
❄️ Sparring partners. Mizu is always interested in fighting skilled people in order to improve her skills and absorb your style into her repertoire like a sponge.

PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN:

❄️ Situation-based/forced partnerships and small teams. Whether it's from the start of the mission or because of how it goes, I really love people having to work together when they might not otherwise do so. Figure out the skills, make it work. Plus it's a fascinating time for character studies.
❄️ Lore behind the worlds collapsing. Is it real? If so, how can which worlds survive be influenced? How exactly do characters prove their/their world's worth, etc. (Mizu also interested in the 'can you save a few, fuck the rest' situation). Love the idea behind this game (honestly reminds me of The City We Became duology in some ways) and would enjoy learning more.
❄️ Etraya and its world. Ties into the above (and as Mizu learns about the other city residents who were rescued, then hmm other cities).
❄️ Found family shenanigans. Hello I'm weak like the rest of us. Love found family stuff, however that comes about. It can be a part of most kinds of plots honestly.

[choirmaster]

PLAYER: Psi (she/her)
CONTACT: PsiYamaneko | PM, discord: denofwolves
ABOUT YOU: Elderly game designer who lives with her cats and a dog on the midcoast of Maine. As a game designer, my passion is video games, and I yap about my love of them. My fandoms are Final Fantasy, Suikoden, Metal Gear, Devil May Cry, Metaphor: ReFantazio, DC Comics, and Legend of Zelda. And various other games too numerous to list. And Honkai: Star Rail, apparently. If you have not played H:SR, then congratulations! That's a very healthy way to live your life! But also buckle up.

CHARACTER: Sunday from Honkai: Star Rail.
CHARACTER INFO: A dangerously insane church confessor with psychic powers who is about to become a sun god. Or was about to. He really believes that the cause of all human suffering is the illusion of free will, as it will always be overwritten by the harsh realities of human nature ("survival of the fittest"). In his paradise, humanity would give up their free will to live forever within his dream, where he would attend to them as the Sun and take on the burden of making bitter choices. He would help the weak, burn the wicked, and sacrifice his own happiness to remain the one waking soul until the end of time. He believes in his vision so much that it makes him self-righteous and arrogant.

Sunday is a man with layers, though! Like an onion! Also like an onion, those layers all make you cry.

• On the surface is a very stately, methodical, and fastidious young man who analyzes everything and everyone.


• Below that, a paranoid control freak who tries to manipulate his environment and everyone in it. He rules over the people close to him with a velvet-clad iron fist and can be surprisingly cruel if anyone disrupts his routine. He would, and has, put death curses on people to force their obedience.


• At the core is a very sweet, sensitive, and artistic soul who has a lot of trouble existing in the world as his authentic self. So, for protection, he covers himself with a thorny personality. This inner side of Sunday can break through to the surface, but he has to be shaken out of his current solipsistic dementia first. In canon, doing this involved running him over with a space train. Multiple times. So, you know...

It is possible to develop close CR with him! But expect that getting to know the "real" Sunday will take multiple interactions.

WANTED CR: Do you have someone who would feel strongly about a man obsessed with control? I have the sun for you!

I am interested in:

• Characters to manipulate.
• Characters to have philosophical conversations with.
• Does your character feel guilt and need to confess anything? Confessor here.
• Fellow music nerds.
• Potential friends with the stamina to get to know him.
• Potential enemies. He's an asshole. He loves everyone with the intensity of a thousand suns and wants what be believes is best for them. But still an asshole.

Or anything else! I am still fairly new and game for any sort of CR.

PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: While I am not opposed to lighter stuff, I love heavier things. Psych horror, drama, political drama etc! Anything that really helps you dig into the meat of what motivates a character. For Sunday in specific, it would be fun to get him into a position of power over time. Then his villainy will really have a chance to shine (get it? because the Sun?) and create some mayhem.


Also, Sunday has an ability called "Tuning" that can mess with people's minds in various ways. You can read more about it and fill out permissions HERE. Who doesn't want an oppressively domineering person digging around in their head?

OTHER: OPT-OUT

[will_chase_balls]

Dwayne is here and incredibly easy to manipulate if Sunday can handle the dumb things coming out of his mouth.

Signal (Hob Gadling, Vax'ildan Vessar, Vincent Valentine)

[loveandsin]

PLAYER: Signal (she/her)
CONTACT: DM or discord via the game server
ABOUT YOU: Into various fandoms but mostly a gamer whenever time permits. I just finished Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. I'm now working on Death Stranding 2. I have also been hosting a Vox Machina watch party on the discord for a couple of months. We're currently on Season 3 and anyone is welcome to join us Sunday nights. I match tagging style and often tag back within 1-2 days or faster when I can. I play Hob Gadling, Vax'ildan Vessar, and Vincent Valentine on the game and am open to plotting with them.

(character posts to follow...)

Vincent Valentine

[loveandsin]

CHARACTER: Vincent Valentine (FF7: Rebirth)
CHARACTER INFO: Vincent is my most recent character addition to the game. He's been active since Sept and made a scene by accidentally transforming into an alien creature during the October event (he's still so embarrassed by that). Things to know: He's tall, slim, and generally quiet/soft-spoken. He's an introvert to the max, so please engage with him. He rocks the vampire aesthetic like you wouldn't believe. Generally, he's armed with a large handgun strapped to his thigh and wears a golden gauntlet on his left hand. Below the surface level stuff, he's actually an immortal due to being the host of an ancient weapon/being, which was the result of experimentation by Professor Hojo. He can be a bit hard to get to know, but he could use some friends!
WANTED CR: Anything, really! Less interested in silly-stuff, but not opposed to it. Just prefer it in moderation, but come at me with your ideas!
PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Would like to see some mystery-driven plots. Strong hooks that allow some freedom of development by players. The October mod-prompts were a great example.

Lisa (Crane and Renoir)

[betenoir]

PLAYER: Lisa
CONTACT: safekeeping or celedrin (discord)

ABOUT YOU: Hello! I'm from the UK and my Plurk is RP related. Fandoms are Clair Obscur, DC, Elder Scrolls, Mass Effect, Metaphor: Refantazio and World of Warcraft. Favourite shows include Derry Girls, Frasier and Only Murders In The Building. I try to tag within 1-2 days and faster when possible, terrible health permitting, while enjoying both logs and network. I play Jonathan Crane (DC) and Renoir Dessendre (Clair Obscur).

Jonathan Crane | Dark Knight Trilogy

[restingstitchface]

CHARACTER: Jonathan Crane

CHARACTER INFO: Crane is a polite and reserved intellectual whose sadistic nature hides behind a civil exterior. His authority as chief of psychiatry allowed him to terrify his patients and hide his involvement in crime. His expert testimony shielded gangsters from prison and was well regarded in legal circles. He is a brilliant scientist who loves the thrill of research. He just happens to get his kicks by experimenting on people without their consent. Because he is who he is, please check his permissions and contact me if you have questions.

WANTED CR: Crane has been in Etraya for a while, keeping a low profile while offering therapy to those in need. He operates on a small and intimate scale when nobody is around to enable him. He will take an interest in forging relationships for business and maintaining his reputation. The theme I am exploring is what Crane does removed from Gotham. Does he indulge in crime and manipulation or be functional in society? Are there people to keep him on the straight and narrow? I want to explore who he is beneath the mask. Crane is the mask he wears, Scarecrow is the man behind it. I love exploring the psychology of that.

PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: My preference is for character and psychological drama, which goes hand in glove with a character who has studied the mind and human behaviour. When missions are involved, Crane works well with mysteries and events that lean less towards action. But my taste leans towards whatever feeds character growth and the overall plot. Crane leans heavily into horror themes already so having him here is more to do with personal and psychological exploration and development. I wasn't active as much with him with the last event due to RL health but I hope to get into the swing of things.

[inemeraldfaith]

PLAYER: London
CONTACT: roseofmay, I'm in the discord server and you can always send me a message there, and PM'ing me is also absolutely cool.

ABOUT YOU:
I've a background in visual and performing arts. Classically trained vocalist, pianist, and flautist. I love pretty much anything that deals with the arts.

My taste in video games is kind of all over the place—Final Fantasy, Legend of Dragoon, Shadow Hearts, Tekken, Drakengard, Lunar, Chrono Trigger / Cross, Xenogears, Silent Hill, Devil May Cry, Bayonetta, Dynasty Warriors, etc., and so on, and so forth.

I work from home and I tag generally whenever I have the time. Sometimes during the day. Sometimes in the evening. Really depends on my schedule.

[inemeraldfaith]

CHARACTER: Aerith Gainsborough - Final Fantasy VII: Remake / Rebirth Continuity

CHARACTER INFO:
You can read her personality info here for more details.

Aerith is a lot of things. Self-sacrificing, street savvy, selfless, altruistic. These are all apt descriptors. She is the sort likely to carry burdens herself and not to impose on others. She carries a humorous, optimistic, and largely cheerful disposition, though it's debatable how much of that comes from feeling that she has to for the sake of those around her and how much of it is natural and a genuine feeling. She can be very secretive and often is not inclined to share personal feelings or information about herself. She is the type of character who lives through others.

WANTED CR:
I'm very open when it comes to CR types. I like every shade provided it fits the occasion and the circumstance. This means, putting Aerith against characters who may be more aloof or closed off. It also means playing her with characters who might be a little more aligned with how she is. My only real rule of thumb is communication on anything that seems unclear.

PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN:
I like enigmatic elements and I really appreciate the notion of people working together to achieve end goals. Events that explore dynamics and connections between characters and situations I think are really great. I've enjoyed the fae court event and understand it was a special situation, but it was a great welcome to the game and the premise.

Dragon | Aliarra Landsritter

[lockdownbuild]

PLAYER: Dragon (he/him)
CONTACT: ultimaweapon or the game discord
ABOUT YOU: Would it shock you to know I like my TTRPGs?

CHARACTER: Aliarra Landsritter (D&D 3.5 OC)
CHARACTER INFO: A hero, a legend, a champion; Aliarra and her party defeated a terrible evil and reassembled the high god of magic rather than let his power fall into the wrong hands. That was 20 years ago, so what has she done since then? Two decades of failing on her hunt for the final opponent so she could finish the job has taken its toll, and she's a grumpy and cynical hero nowadays who nonetheless does all she can to stick to that heroic role.
WANTED CR: Friends, particularly ones that she can open up to (good luck). People she can teach, train, and leave a legacy with. People who are vastly different, so she can mentally gnaw at the differences.
PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Time for some adventure, I say!

Fellow OotS fan! \o/

[levelshift]

PLAYER: Pan
CONTACT: cryptophyta, cryptophyta on discord.
ABOUT YOU: Shiny hunting in pokemon ZA in between holiday stuff. Generally I'm a quick tagger.

CHARACTER: Accelerator, from A Certain Magical Index
CHARACTER INFO: Accelerator is a teenage artificial esper, which essentially means he's a scientific guinea pig who was given superpowers. He's the strongest esper in the series with the ability of vector manipulation AKA he can control anything as long as he can conceptualize vectors for it. This includes energy and magic from other universes, and can get abstract as hell because he's an absurd supergenius.

He has had a rough life and oh boy, does it show! He's abrasive and a jerk, and curses constantly. He's distrustful of adults due to most adults in his life being horrific monsters, which forced him to grow up really fast. Currently, he is a convicted felon in prison for having murdered over ten thousand clone girls (among other crimes) while simultaneously in charge of a city of 2.3 million, 1.8 million of whom are minors. He's trying to do his best but it's hard, okay.
WANTED CR: Science nerds! People who want their adult characters to get dunked on by a teen! Sleipnir re-traumatized him a little this past mission and now that everyone is back on Etraya Accy can talk about it, so I'd love to deal with that in some way.
PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I really want him to get back to the Echo diary entries and any fallout from solving them! He's been in the game a long time, so getting confirmation that Echo is not lying about the universe saving stuff would be great. Especially since that proof is basically a huge math formula, that's right up his alley so now that the mission is over I'm planning on having him get back into being invested in it.

CONTACT: brutallyamish or brutallyamish (discord), please feel free to add me on either or both for plotting
ABOUT YOU: look, i'm obsessed with Arcane and League of Legends, but in general, i'm a gamer (FFXV, Dragon Age, Mass Effect, Skyrim, Clair Obscur: E33, Silent Hill 2 and f, and, of course, League of Legends), a medical editor, and all around in general nerd. i love horror, too, so ask me about that show Welcome to Derry because i just finished it and i have THOUGHTS.

generally, i'm pretty quick with tags, and open to boomeranging if desired!

CHARACTERS:
Gladio Amicitia | FFXV
Viktor, the Machine Herald | League of Legends
Jon Snow | Game of Thrones

i'm a firm believer in functioning on vibes, so i don't plan a lot ahead of time, but please hit me up to plot anything specific!! i'm pretty much always online, so it's highly likely you'll catch me somewhere.

[demainvient]

I apologize for just fucking vanishing, I've been swamped with work for the last few weeks but! Would still love to throw Gustave at yours in the new year, and if you're cool with backtagging I'd be happy to finish out the event thread with him and Gladio!

Lorna | Gustave Expedition

[demainvient]

PLAYER: Lorna, she/her
CONTACT: repeatandfade, blueofthebay on disco
ABOUT YOU: I am still in the midst of my eoy crush at work, so apologies to everyone I vanished on this month! I'll be back and much more available starting 12/26.

CHARACTER: Gustave, from Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
CHARACTER INFO: If Gustave were a Spice Girl, he would be Nerdy Spice. He's a kind-hearted engineer who is focused on his family, friends, and trying to save his world. Gustave does come with spoilers for E33, so please let me know if you're trying to avoid spoilers!

WANTED CR: Friends, sparring partners, field trip buddies, other nerdy/science-oriented characters, characters who can expand his horizons in softer disciplines like art & music. Romance??? would be fun but a definite slowburn for this reserved guy. I'd especially love to expand his crosscanon cr, so will be focusing on that for the next few months.

PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I would love for Gustave to be able to explore the world more! He's very focused on the missions in order to save his world, but he loves to explore and learn, so plots/missions where he can go on an adventure are excellent.
OTHER:

Re: Lorna | Gustave Expedition

[nimbuster]

Hello! I would love to build CR with these two good boys, Cloud got a positive impression from what he saw of Gustave during the vinomorph incident and would enjoy being a sparring partner and/or field trip exploration buddy!

Does Gustave want to ride a chocobo or a motorcycle? :D

[plangona]

PLAYER: K
CONTACT: galactic + discord via the game server.
ABOUT YOU: I'm terrible with intros and in too many fandoms to name/count; always open to watching/starting new canons, etc. My timezone is PST with tagging speed varying a lot due to work but I pretty much backtag into forever.

CHARACTER: Octavia Blake (The 100)
CHARACTER INFO: Octavia was born on a space station where having a second child was a crime punishable by death in which she lived in secrecy and isolation during her formative years, with her only social interaction being with her mother and her older brother, Bellamy. After being discovered, her mother floated (tossed out of an airlock) for the crime of having her, she was locked up for almost a year before being sent down to post apocalyptic Earth to make sure it wasn't still totally radiated and uninhabitable and of course they learn the planet itself was brimming with new threats. She's a badass warrior who looks like she is ready to fight at any given moment but underneath it all does have a softer side to her once you're her friend. She loves mythology, stabbing shit with her sword and horseback riding (she can be seen around probably riding her horse Helios!!)

WANTED CR: Everything!! Octavia is a little rough around the edges but I am down for literally any and all types of CR! I would love for her to make some friends, enemies, mentors, people who know what it's like to have a sibling??, people to adopt her, some sparring buddies/mentors or whatever else.

She has been in game since the very beginning, currently squatting and hording stuff in her apartment but she pretty much lives/camps outside in the Dropship because it's basically a place from her home.

She is kind of conflicted about being here/trusting it and doesn't think she is suited to save her world from being destroyed because really who thought it was a good idea to choose her for this? but she is fully taking advantage of what she can with all the food, clothing and other modern conveniences this places has, it's a huge upgrade from being stuck in an underground bunker.

PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I am here for all of it. I love a good mix of horror, mystery, slice of life and exploration but I really would love to have her involved in more stuff about this place and learning more about Echo and how much truth there is behind all this.

OTHER:

Adoption you say? 👀 If you'd like, I could toss Dany at her! She's got plenty of mom energy and a big soft spot for kids who had a rough go of it.

ABOUT YOU: Lifelong Stephen King fan currently obsessing over the new IT: Welcome to Derry series. Also a big Sherlock Holmes fan in almost every form he takes. Other than that, I'm back on my George R.R. Martin bullshit!

CHARACTERS:

Daenerys Targaryen (Game of Thrones) — erintys

Noctis Lucis Caelum (Final Fantasy XV) — somnifer

WANTED CR: I'm super open! Generally, I've found the most success plotting on plurk or discord + running with things that happen organically. That said, I've been really pleased with Noctis' CR and I'd love to continue that. Sparring partners? Characters with connections to gods? Also looking for folks Dany will be recruiting uh, befriending.

Scout ( Clea Dessendre)

[repaintress]

PLAYER: Scout
CONTACT: PM, ScoutRPsStuff, or scoutstalkbox on Discord.
ABOUT YOU: Not really doing much fandom-wise at the moment - I read a lot of non-fiction and do a lot of puzzles? And sleep a lot. I write original stuff a bit. Gonna tackle my video game backlog in the next few weeks. I WFH 4 days of the week so I try to tag back fairly quickly and/or match pace. I'll match format as well - the only thing I ask is please no fancy text shenanigans. They are very pretty but my eyes are very borked.

CHARACTER: Clea Dessendre from Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
CHARACTER INFO: Clea is a messy, problematic magical artist bitch from early 20th century Paris. She has approximately zero chill, considers bad wine an offense against her personally, and is fueled by black coffee, wine, and revenge plotting. She's very cynical as a result of her canon's events and has a very dour outlook on people in general. She is also very protective of people she's decided she likes or who are her responsibility, honest (almost to a fault), possessed of magnificent taste, and is a great person to have at a party. She's also kind of an OG goth/alt girl in that she's very into the weird, morbid, horrific, etc. She loves monsters.
WANTED CR: I'm kind of at lose ends right now, so more CR would be great. People to try to convince Clea that the world doesn't suck as much as she thinks it does/heal a bit from her mess, people to practice fighting with her as she's learning, other artists or similarly cultured people she can either fight with or become friends with, other girlie types, other people who think Echo and/or Scylla are sus as hell and want to do something about it, people for her to bully into having some self-esteem, other people who are into the weird/disturbing or who like monsters.
PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I'm here for most things, but I'm more for the plotty side of things versus slice of life. I like events to act as an impetus to get characters interacting outside of how they usually do, and that's hard if it's just SoL. I'm pretty open outside of that - part of the fun for me is throwing characters into situations very discordant with their canon and seeing how it goes.

So I heard you need someone to balance cynicism with some cheer and funny anecdotes.

Marie (Prompto and Nico)

[saychocobo]

PLAYER: Marie, she/her but they is also fine.
CONTACT: seemarierun on Plurk, and Imirindo on discord.
ABOUT YOU: I'm boring and I never know what to say here. I work 8:30-5 ET M-F, technically, so I'm usually unavailable during those times, but sometimes I sneak in tags around meetings.

I am off the 25th through 4th, so I will be a lot more available the next 2.5 weeks and only have plans on the 25th.

I don't usually boomerang, but I was thinking of doing like scheduled boomeranging? If I know X is available at a certain day and time and they're down to do something, we could definitely bang away at something.

Prompto

[saychocobo]

CHARACTER: Prompto Argentum from FFXV
CHARACTER INFO: So Prompto's a now 21-year-old who went on a road trip bachelor party/mission that went off-road very very quickly. He's a bit of a rowdy, just a bit - mainly he wants everyone to have a good time, even if life's been kinda crap: snap a few pics, crack a few jokes, ride some chocobos.

He had a bit of a rough time in the fae realm, as he was "gifted" with divination and had a drawn out course of revelations that have told him more about his future/past than he wanted to know. As a result, he'll be trying Extra Hard to be the very best Prompto he can be until he chills the hell out.
WANTED CR:

1. Friendship


2. Sparring partners and/or target practice buddy and/or someone to work with him on using something that isn't a gun


3. People who make him awkward


4. People who don't make him awkward


5. Hunting demons/monsters


6. Saving puppies/other fuzzy animals


7. DO YOU WANT TO MEET HIS BUNNYFLY


8. Maybe working up the nerve to intentionally flirt with someone

I'm easy to please. I'll probably say yes to anything.

PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I'm thinking of having him post about some sort of games night for interested people to attend, but that isn't really for the mods.

I'm more interested in the mystery and world exploration. Prompto would be more interested in having a chance to prove that his world is worth saving and to help others do the same. He doesn't want his world to die - they've had a hard enough time already - but he also don't want some other world to be massacred for them. There's gotta be a way to save everybody, right??

Jaina | Clark Kent/Superman (supes '25)

[newsbeat]

PLAYER: Jaina, she/her
CONTACT: effervescible, effervescible @ Discord, PMs all fine for communication
ABOUT YOU: Hi! I'm a big nerd from the NYC-adjacent region and am interested in/plurk about fandomy things, particularly video games (past faves include Kingdom Hearts, Uncharted, various Dragon Ages, Assassin's Creeds and the Horizon games — I do love a well-made open world game, also hot messes that are still interesting) plus travel, food, distance running (my ill-advised primary out-of-home hobby), general life stuff. I was a huge superhero comics fan in my youth and kind of fell off after one too many reboots, but the new Superman movie absolutely awakened something core in me haha. I have kept up enough to know that you should all read Superman: Secret Identity.

CHARACTER: Clark Kent/Superman of the most recent and best-dimpled live-action adaptations.

CHARACTER INFO: He's a sunshine golden retriever but (crucially) not a doormat. This Superman is relatively early in his careers — he is in no way a newbie when it comes to both superheroing and journalism, but he does not fully have his shit together for either. Before coming to Etraya he had a real shitass week but has since rallied through the power of friendship and alien kidnapping. He's settled in and made some good bonds but sometimes struggles with feeling a bit purposeless in Etraya. (Yeah, proving their realities shouldn't be erased is a purpose but he dislikes the whole universe hunger games thing.) On the plus side he has rediscovered a love for cooking now that he has extra time.

Stuff I have been/would like to continue exploring:

• Multiverses. They're weird, aren't they? He's still noodling over what alternate realities say about people, their destinies, their connections across reality, etc. Clark doesn't like the idea of anything being destined, but he can't really deny certain cross-reality connections, can he?
• Why the heck are there so many people from Gotham here and why do all of them know his secret identity?
• Anyone got advice on how to effectively parent a ten-year-old son he has come to love while knowing they're almost certainly from alternate timelines, not different points on the same one? On the plus side, Clark has stopped crashing out about HAVING a son. That's called character growth baybee.
• Krypto is here :/ does anyone want to dogsit
• I think it would be funny if he and Lois went on double dates or something with other Etraya couples. The Kent family apartment is also probably gonna have some dinner parties. Clark will cook.

WANTED CR:
• People with "future besties" vibes. He can always use more.
• People who do NOT have "future besties" vibes and will seriously test Clark's patience because it's funny when him being nice and kind actually takes effort.
• He really likes kids and young people!
• It would probably take a bit to come out but I'd really enjoy him making connections with people who have experienced a lot of loneliness and feelings of isolation even when it might not feel like they should. That's something he doesn't bring to the surface very often since he's trying to fit in/be human at home, but everything's on the table with Etraya being such a mixed back of experiences.
• Honestly he likes being bullied, in a friendly sort of way. This doesn't count if you're actually trying to be a dick.
• He does have a nemesis present already but I'm not against adding to that roster.

PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: This might be too vague but I like the idea of him being able to use his powers to accomplish things, but not in the straightforward way he's used to (lifting/punching stuff). Make him be creative.

rocket | verso, expedition 33

[versorecto]

PLAYER: Rocket (he/they), I also go by Caleb both are fine
CONTACT: dragonpunch, feel free to add there. I can also be pinged in the game's disco server @ valonqar!
ABOUT YOU: I slammed right from end-of-term into an emergency room and health issues and I'm so sorry for having gone "Hi I'm back" only to immediately vanish lmao. Things may be finally stabilizing and I'm slowly going to try and pick things up again and will backtag into forever, but do let me know if you'd rather drop or handwave or something, and please yell at me if there's something I've missed!

CHARACTER: Verso, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
CHARACTER INFO:

Verso is a very, very sad man from La Belle Époque Fantasy France who mostly manages to project Sexy Mysterious Stranger energy when he's not too busy being sopping wet cat. He's got an immense big brother complex and absolutely hates himself, and is completely immortal despite his best efforts. A bit distant and noticeably evasive with anything personal, he actually warms up easier than you'd think to most people and has a tendency to get into Deep Things even with relative strangers. Overall seems like a good man trying to do the right thing, but always seems to be working towards his own secret goals.

( E33 postgame spoilers )

In reality his mom used her godlike painting powers to create him as a replacement goldfish for her real dead son, and Verso has been struggling with what the fuck this means for him and his world ever since he found out. He lies constantly through his teeth to get what he wants, but it's for the greater good, kind of, probably, it's for one very specific good he cares about. Verso is from post-game and the A Life to Paint end specifically, which just means he's extremely fucked up right now. Woohoo!

He's a pretty spoiler-heavy character from post-game and comes with some heavy CWs (including suicidal ideation, derealization and depersonalization). With non-castmates these things are unlikely to come up and I will double-check if it I can, but especially since this is still a pretty new game I have an opt-out post for Verso here!

WANTED CR: Verso's still getting established and I'd love to get him more cross-canon CR especially! Found family, shady bitches, musicians and artists, deeply depressed people, immortality angst fellows, negative CR, and anyone who'd like to beat the shit out of him spar would all be interesting, with a more detailed list of possible CR launch points at previous CR meme post here. He's also currently basically living in and around the woods and partially out of the abandoned Camp Etraya, so if you'd like to run into him there or see a weird wild man hanging around, there's also that.

PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Nothing specific comes to mind, but I live for drama and to psychologically torment my boy. It builds character! Though tbvh he'll find a way to torment himself even in the fluffiest events.

HELLO i also disappeared this past month (': but i think illyana and verso could be super interesting! they've both got fucked up backstories and illyana is constantly trying to reclaim her sense of agency/self, so there's neat stuff there

ABOUT YOU: hi, i'm matches. i mostly babble about roleplay stuff or video games. resident evil is my big fandom, and i'm sorry for the person that re9 is going to turn me into for the next few months while i wait for the new game to come out. otherwise i enjoy various series across different mediums such as dc comics (mostly bats), dead space, the walking dead, devil may cry, death stranding, fables (comic seris), dispatch, and a lot more. i love watching movies of all kinds and playing video games. i also like showing off pictures of my dogs, i'm not sorry. my speed varies from hitting stuff back multiple times a day to taking a few days depending on what's going on, but i love to get into all kinds of things. so come at me.

leon kennedy - resident evil 2 (remake)

[tyrantbait]

CHARACTER: leon s. kennedy, resident evil 2 (remake)

CHARACTER INFO: the golden boy of the resident evil franchise. leon is a rookie cop who showed up to his first day as a police officer to raccoon city in ruins due to a viral outbreak turning people into monsters. he's a friendly, determined, and stubborn guy who will take a bullet for you (literally), and his driving motivations are to help as many people as he can. he copes with stress by making bad one liners or comments, and he's known for making cheesy remarks now and again. he's coming from the end of resevil 2 remake, so he's got a nice gunshot wound to nurse and is trying to, you know, cope with the fact that zombies are real. he was here previously for like 5 minutes before i had to drop, but he's back with no memories of his very limited time in etraya.

WANTED CR: obligatory EVERYTHING answer since he's new. but for some more specifics:
- friends! who doesn't need a friend, right? he's easy going enough and could use some friends in a new place.
- fellow first responder types would be great. he's only officially work one shift as a rookie officer and it went to hell, but he vibes pretty well with people who want to help others.
- drinking buddies are always wanted, because how else do you cope with your trauma besides drowning yourself at the bottom of a bottle?
- more chaotic companions he can try to wrangle to varying degrees of success.
- sparring buddies because now more than ever, being in good shape and able to hold his own is important to him. can't help others if you can't help yourself and all that.
- someone he can open up to eventually about everything that happened and his feelings about it all. this'll be pretty difficult since he's fresh from a canon point where he learned he was manipulated + lied to and also unable to save someone who he started to care about.

PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: i am very easily enabled, so seriously feel free to pitch most anything. i'm not really interested in silly stuff, but anything from something a little more lowkey and casual to something intense would be great.

GG // Nero | Devil May Cry

[pullit]

PLAYER: GG (she/her)
CONTACT: theggnator and same on Discord
ABOUT YOU: Equal parts old lady and hopeless gamer, tune into my plurk for crochet, gardening, an awful lot of Capcom games, and pictures of my cats. I'm about to be on winter break for a couple weeks so holidays aside, I am down to clown with new threads!

CHARACTER: Nero from Devil May Cry
CHARACTER INFO:
Nero is the Apollo Justice of Devil May Cry, the second gen protagonist following in the footsteps of his Uncle Dante. This means that though he is 24 and vastly more responsible and put together than anyone else in the cast, he will never escape the baby allegations, nor stop being called "kid," "boy," "child," etc. He's a foul-mouthed punk who loves swords, guns, fighting, wrestling, and loud music. He is also transparently a sweet guy with a soft heart who likes protecting the innocent and literally runs an orphanage and soup kitchen with his girlfriend back home, when he's not smashing demon heads together for cash.

He would be choose to be Scary Spice but I think he's more of a Sporty at heart.

WANTED CR: A lifelong outcast, Nero is a little socially awkward around people his own age, which is all the more reason I want to force them on him. He could really use some friends his age, and he especially gets anxious around other boys and men. He grew up in a cult and has been to exactly one party in his life (here in Etraya), so he's game to try out all the typical teenage and young adult milestones he missed out on.

As he can be prickly and defensive, I am also down for negative CR! Nero will usually make one good attempt to be nice and then give as good as he gets, and his attitude can definitely be offputting for some. I prefer negative CR to have SOME kind of direction to it, such as learning to work together or finding common ground, as opposed to endless fighting forever.

Nero is 1/4 demon, and any characters who would be able to identify this about him are welcome to do so. He's one of those rare part-human protags who's amazingly well-adjusted about this, so if your character has this sort of baggage he's a great person to talk to.

Also of note, Nero's uncle Dante and father Vergil are both here in Etraya. All three of them are strikingly similar in appearance so it's entirely fair for characters to recognize the resemblance. One Sparda can easily lead to CR with another, as the three are staying together as we save up to purchase their shop.

PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Nero is MADE for combat-heavy plots and is quite the powerhouse... but I'd love to get him involved in plots like the fae one where this is less of an option and he has to find more creative ways to solve problems. I love solving mysteries and puzzles and plots where raw strength and power isn't enough to fix everything. Plots where characters are forced to solve aspects of a problem that they wouldn't normally be suited to are also lots of fun.

Anyway, I'm saying Nero is a himbo who tends to punch his way out of things and it's funny to me when he can't do that.

Rose | Clara Oswald

[timefracture]

PLAYER: Rose (They/Them)
CONTACT: PMs are good and intercession. I just ask that you let me know who you are before you add me!

ABOUT YOU: So I'm a librarian at a small university in the American South. I read a lot and spend too much time worrying about the AI ensloppification of the world. Fandom wise I'm invested most heavily in the Lord of the Rings, Marvel Comics, Fantasy and Horror fiction, and obviously Doctor Who. I'm an avid Magic the Gathering player, and I'm pretty into painting miniatures, travel, and I've been on a bit of a fitness journey the last year that's involved teaching myself to cook.

Unfortunately I feel like I flubbed on a few plans on the mission log and I hope to make it up to those I didn't get around to threading with. The holidays have been killer.

CHARACTER: Clara Oswald from Doctor Who.

CHARACTER INFO: Clara is basically all of the Spice Girls rolled into one. She's a feisty, extroverted, altruistic, flirtatious, and amiable person who's very comfortable with even the most difficult people. Clara's a little bit of a control freak at times, she's inherently curious, and she's also extremely impulsive.

For the not-canon familiar, Clara is a time traveler, and a companion of an alien who calls himself the Doctor. She's good under pressure, really good with machines, and she'll go out of her way to help basically anyone.

WANTED CR: I'm looking for Clara to make new friends since she's new. She's the kind of person that can get along with basically anyone, and she really does enjoy worming her way into friendships with the most difficult of people. She's a dreadful flirt, and she's not shy about asking men or women out for drinks, so I'm happy to do something with that if you're interested.

Clara loves kids and younger people, and she's pretty good at talking to people who are having a difficult time, so if you need a confidant or someone to listen I'd love this. Need a helper for a mechanical project? Hit me up! Interested in a "talker" to drag your introvert out into the open some? I'm here for it! I'm all for basically most things, but hostility for the sake of it isn't really my preference.

PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I would love the chance to explore worlds and the like. Clara by nature is curious and will want to dig into stuff. Plots involving cosmic horror tropes like cults and forbidden magic are something I really love, and I'm definitely happiest with something going on and not pure SOL.

Jenny (Magik)

[lingeringshadow]

PLAYER: Jenny!
CONTACT: cephalopods on plurk, or .astralwraith on discord!
ABOUT YOU: I love horror media, rpgs, and books about weird history. (': I try to be a pretty quick tagger, but the last month was hellish at work. I'm getting back to normal now though!

CHARACTER: Illyana Rasputina/Magik - Marvel Comics
CHARACTER INFO: Illyana is an X-Man who spent most of her childhood trapped in a Hell dimension called Limbo being forced to become an apocalypse maiden by a demon lord. So, now she has spooky demonic powers and sorcery along with her mutant ability to create teleportation portals. Deep down Illyana is afraid that she's forever tainted and fundamentally evil because of her time in Limbo, so she throws herself into the whole superhero thing in an attempt to fight what she considers her nature. She's been a member of the main X-Men team in the comics for a while now, usually as Cyclops' right hand, and also taught magic at Dr. Strange's academy and to mutant students.

Despite the whole Trauma thing, Illyana is usually pretty playful, with a mischievous sense of humor, and loves fighting things. Especially big scary dangerous things. She's kind of a chaotic gremlin, but can definitely lock in when the situation calls for it, and usually ends up seeking out people and friendships despite sometimes spiraling into the whole "I'm too dangerous to be around" thing.

WANTED CR: I'm open to anything! Some potential hooks/avenues:
- She's offering magic/demonic defense lessons at NYX
- Sparring partners! People to fight with, friendly or otherwise!
- Other characters with spooky connections/backstories to bond over
- People to annoy - she'll tease/flirt/bully with the best of them

PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I love horror and misery (':

Vergil ⛈️ Devil May Cry

[antimetabole]

PLAYER: Crystal (they/she)
CONTACT: rebreather (feel free to add, but if you don't have something in your profile you're from here lmk you're not a random add!), discord: thesubrosa, or just PM this journal. All works equally well!
ABOUT YOU: Aside from the crying devils, I am a big Resident Evil nerd and have recently started playing through Ace Attorney games. But when not schilling for Capcpom (no, that's not a typo on my part; that's a typo Capcom made) like that, I'm sharing recipes/cooking adventures and my two cats, Pixel & Emory. I tend to be a little slower of a tagger sometimes because of work (or life happens), but I try to tag for blocks of time roughly 2-3 times per week! (Note: I have been a little slower the past two weeks due to transitions at work, but I'm getting back in the saddle on my week off over the holiday.) I take zero offense if you'd rather handwave tho if something gets a little too crusty for your tastes.

CHARACTER: Vergil from Devil May Cry
CHARACTER INFO: Vergil is perhaps most kindly and generously described as being a bit grumpy. He's not particularly well-socialized and struggles with expressing himself, making him seem a little cold and distant at times. But he is really a softie beneath that RBF (seriously, William Blake is is his favorite poet; if that doesn't say pushover idk what else possibly could), and he has been trying to connect more with his humanity after denying it for the majority of his life. Vergil is extremely ride or die for his family, and would burn everything to the ground to protect them/generally do anything for them, but it takes a lot more work to have him extend that same loyalty to others given his general mistrust.

Vergil also has a bit of a temper (Nero got it from somewhere...), but he's not particularly explosive with his temper. It's more of a quiet rage than that.

(Note: Vergil is a CRAU, but I am never one to project previous CR should anyone be playing a character he had contact with there. I will always ask what you are comfortable with, and rock with that!)

The tl;dr is that while Vergil has many regrets and is rough around the edges, but he is trying each and every day to do better so he can be a good father to Nero, and a better brother to Dante than he's been in the past.
WANTED CR:
⛈️ Friends. Oh my god, this dude needs to have some friendships that last a while. He's horrible at making them, and circumstances have prevented him from keeping them in his previous game.

⛈️ Sparring partners! Vergil loves sparring with his family more than anyone else, but that doesn't mean he would refuse someone who wants to put their skills to the test. I'm down to handwave the actual fighting if preferred!

⛈️ As a note, I'm totally fine with any of Dante or Nero's CR clocking Vergil as being related to them! They all bear a reasonable amount of resemblance to one another that anyone with working eyeballs could tell they gotta be related fairly closely. Play your cards right, too, and Vergil might even start to gush about how perfect his child is.

⛈️ Lastly, Vergil is prickly and sometimes extremely petty! So, I'm comfortable with negative CR. I just don't care for it when it's tit-for-tat or negative for the sake of being negative because that gets repetitious and tedious. So, if you think Vergil and yours might butt heads, I'm absolutely down for more mixed to negative CR provided that it's not just them being dicks at each other back and forth.
PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Digging into plots related to that and things that can explore more of his humanity (whether that's being in touch with one's feelings or more morality-based quandaries) are always delectable for me. Vergil is less inclined to engage in the softer, fluffier matters, but I do not take this man seriously (and neither should you), so I'm always down to find a way to bully him into it. It could do him some good to maybe unclench a little, but I also fully support doing things for the vine. Or plot. Or whatever the hell it is the youths say these days.

[ornithologist]

CHARACTER: Harold Finch, Person of Interest
CHARACTER INFO: Harold is not a Spice Girl. He is not attending any pop concerts and he is certainly not starring in them. He is a computer super-genius nerd with a heart of gold who literally became an ethics professor as his long-term undercover identity because he could easily maintain that. Harold thinks very hard about everything, cares extremely much, and would prefer most people not perceive him because that is nerve-wracking. His life is very very sad and he copes with this by hiding. It works great every time!

He secretly lives in the library and wanders around in immaculately tailored menswear with a gorgeous military dog named Bear. His hobbies are bird watching, collecting high grade vinyl records, and adopting semi-feral killers and slowly reforming them. His full-time occupation is being terminally online since the days of ARPANET. He is also disabled and has a heavy limp, but please don't comment on it, do you see how dignified he is?

WANTED CR: Harold can be a little difficult to place with characters because he is an extremely shy and ultra-paranoid introvert, though you might not realize that on interacting with him. He's quite comfortable with people once he's engaging with them, because he's emotionally intelligent and terminally polite. He kind of gets sucked into things because he is Too Nice. :(

I am always down for CR that enables thoughtful conversations, semi-feral killers to slowly reform with the power of Harold just trying to be a decent person to them, and found family dynamics. Harold is not very cooperative but it's fine we can figure it out. Generally I think this poor man has been tortured enough in canon and I try to let him take a more supportive role in RP. He really would prefer to stop being the main character, thank you.

PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Harold has a rudimentary surveillance network set up around Etraya that I mumble-handwave based on whatever's convenient OOCly. I default to him not knowing things, but if you'd like him to have observed your character doing something, let me know! He's also an absolutely inveterate network snoop. He's reading everything. He prefers to show up to a situation already knowing everyone's life story and he is extremely miffed that in Etraya there is no actual internet. Rude.

If he sees someone that he thinks might need help, he is going to help them regardless of his ability to do so, so that is also an easy in!

OTHER: if anything his suits are even more fire than I can describe in text

Hughie Campbell | The Boys

[consensually]

PLAYER: Metro
CONTACT: squatcobbler or PM
ABOUT YOU: Crazy cat parent. My tagging speed can vary from boomeranging to a few days depending on multiple factors. I will be a little bogged down with RL the next couple weeks but I am excited to be here!

CHARACTER: Hughie Campbell from The Boys.
CHARACTER INFO: A regular, mild-mannered guy unwittingly pulled into the violent underground world of vigilantism, and in spite of doing a few murders here and there, has managed to remain (mostly) uncorrupted in spirit. He comes from a version of Earth where superheroes (aka Supes) are made, not born, and propped up as public figures through a mega-corporation that is insidiously monopolizing capitalist America. At his canon point he and the leader of his vigilante group have broken away from everyone to take on said corporation by themselves with their not-entirely-secret weapon: an unstable Supe filled with nuclear energy they unearthed from Russia named Soldier Boy. Hughie's started taking a drug that temporarily induces super powers and left things in a bad place with his girlfriend back home, so he's a bit stressed, but in general he's down to earth, kind-hearted and maybe a little naive in the way he wears his heart on his sleeve -- which will make him either easy to get along with or annoying as fuck. ;]

WANTED CR: Pretty much anything and everything is fair game, including negative interactions (he's not confrontational but his wholesome edge might grate on more abrasive characters, which is entirely welcomed). I tend to go with the "toss around and see what sticks" approach when it comes to plotting and/or developing CR.

PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Horror, mystery, psychological mindfuckery, cooperative situations, occasional dashes of fluff/SOL to break up the heavier stuff.

scott summers, xmcu.

[redvisor]

PLAYER: missy.
CONTACT: I've been on a bit of a plurk break lately so here or PM's are probably best for me atm.

CHARACTER: Scott Summers, XMCU original timeline flavor
CHARACTER INFO: Leader of the X-Men under the codename Cyclops, Scott's been to Etraya before so this isn't his first rodeo with being here which makes a lot of this easier for him. He comes from The Last Stand-ish but due to his having been here before, he's not as standoffish with everything and everyone but trust main man is still doing the Scott Summers thing of carrying everything on his shoulders and suffering in silence. Leaders, am I right? Oh, he's also a mutant with the mutation of being able to fire optic blasts from his eyes which is why he's always wearing red shades or his visor. Yes, he sees the world in red. It's been fun.

Depending on who you talk to, he can come off as a dick (thanks, Logan) but it's really just him being all do as I say and not as I do as leaders have the tendency to do. Also, you know, comes with the whole being responsible for others and keeping them in one piece best he can. But he's really not that bad of a guy, just sometimes a bit too serious or Disappointed Dad. He's a mechanic and rides motorcyles, he's cool, ok! He's also very protective of his people/mutants regardless of what timeline or universe they're from and will go to bat for them without a second thought.

Also his younger alternate counterpart is here and That's New for him but he'll definitely be keeping an eye on him because boy. Teenagers.

WANTED CR:
— other Leader types to cross paths with. How you holding up with having the weight of saving your world on your shoulders or keeping your team/people in one piece even here?
— 30-something or older buds he can gently bond or shoot the shit with. Bonus points if you're not entirely human.
— Scott has a tendency to be blunt and no nonsense when he needs to be so if you need someone like that in your life, he can be that person.
— Others who feel isolated or like they don't belong. Being a mutant and having been through the whole not belonging amongst his peers things, he can easily relate to this and be a sort of pillar of strength for anyone who doesn't feel seen or heard.
— Scott's a skilled combatant so if you need some self-defense lessons, he could help with that.
— Idk if you think they'd mesh good together I'm all for seeing what happens. Or if you happen to know his younger alternate counterpart and want to mistake him for having grown up suddenly or w/e, I'm down with those interactions.

I'd also really, truly love any and all CR with Avengers and MCU people because it's the cinematic crossover I have wanted forever and am still not necessarily guaranteed that even with James Marsden reprising his role in Avengers: Doomsday. Look I've just been burned with the X-Men in the MCU too much to not be skeptical. 😠

PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Scott does best when he can do leaderly things so anything concerning Etraya itself he'll definitely look into especially with his having been here a couple times already. Like what's the deal, Aurora?

CHARACTER: Bruce Wayne, comics flavor
CHARACTER INFO: Bruce is a broody asshole masquerading as a charming playboy. He's coming in during the Mercy of the Father storyline. (detective comics 1090-1096. Specifically he is post issue 1092). Great at everything except interpersonal relationships. Also will adopt any stray children, so don't leave them unattended if you don't want him to abscond with them.

WANTED CR: I am a sucker for the found family trope and Bruce is absolutely perfect for it. If you want to be adopted into the Batfam, let's make it happen. If you want to get on Bruce's bad side (it's not hard!), we can do that too. He did some Bad Things during a previous mission and is still dealing with the fallout of that. He doesn't like talking about his feelings, but I like putting him in situations where he doesn't have much choice. He pretends he doesn't, but he cares very deeply about the people he's close to, so let's dig into that too! Don't mess with his kids, he will come for your whole existence.

or maybe he can get some therapy or something idk. Hit me up.

PLOTS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Bruce is a detective so I'd love for him to help Solve Things. He's way smarter than I am though so bear with me lmao. Also Batfam shenanigans. Or just him being a nosy lil jerk and getting into people's business.
