This is a plotting meme for people to get to know each other!
How it works...
Some people have had difficulty coming up with things to post about. In game developments/current items are still in the works, but here is a plotting post for people to come up with anything.
Player Name:
Character Name: State of the character: Where they currently are right now, including how they might have been/what they were wanting when they came into the game. Things I would like to do with my character: Issues you would like to explore? Things you've never had a chance to do yet? Fun stuff you'd like to see happen to your character? Additional Notes: RP Hours? Funny gifs? How your character sounds (because some of them have unique voices). Links to great scenes? Whatever you want to put here.
Character Name: Ben Rainsford State of the character: NATURE ESPLODE? WHY DO THING? MUST SCIENCE!
Things I would like to do with my character: -Lots of dangerous outside Observing Creepers In Nature -Potentially mugged? -Soil samples -Bickering and cocktails
Additional Notes: Ben is a xenoecologist and mild-to-moderate workaholic. He's also a sport hunter if anyone's into that.
Character Name: Newt Geiszler State of the character: Just arrived! Not introduced, yet. Things I would like to do with my character: SCIENCE. Maybe making a mini kaiju. Research, and getting settled. Additional Notes: RP hours: Technically on hiatus till the 7th. I am in the EST time zone, and I tend to tag between 8am and 11pm. I am fairly slow (I tag by characters, and I don't tag every day for every muse I have threads for), but I backtag as long as possible. I do a lot of plotting on Plurk but I also use AIM @ ravynabbey.
Character Name: Narvin State of the character: Narvin has finally convinced himself that no, he's not in charge of security here. (But he's still keen to gather information on people; that's just his personality.) He's here to look for a cure to a pandemic that's been spreading on Gallifrey. But he's also here just to escape for a while because his life has not been good for the past few years. He would also like to find a way to get his regenerations back because they were stolen a while ago. It's very urgent for him because from his perspective it's a bit like having a terminal disease, knowing that his life span will be much shorter than it should be. But it's also complicated because the afore mentioned pandemic hijacks regeneration and turns regenerating Time Lords into monsters. And he doesn't know if he has that virus or not, so getting his regenerations back is a risky proposition. Plus, not having his regenerations is something he feels ashamed about (another character in the canon refers to regenerations taken away as "sterilization") so it's not something he wants to talk about. Things I would like to do with my character: There are lots of things that come up in Narvin's branch of Doctor Who canon that really fascinate me. Like how post-human ("human") Gallifreyans are and how tied they are to technology, to the point where their minds and bodies can be rebooted by installing old data into the Matrix. And how they can be hacked, or their bodies copied and duplicated, viruses that affect their computers can also affect their brains, etc. And on the flip side of things, I love doing things that relate back to their evolutionary ancestors, which were predator canine-ish beasts. (Drinking vampire blood makes them revert back to this.) Additional Notes: I am in Arizona time (which is currently the same as Pacific Standard, but we don't do daylight savings, so it varies). But I tend to do most of my tagging in the wee hours these days.
***** Character Name: Bertie Wooster State of the character: Bertie is just enjoying himself, drinking, thinking that the Petal and Stamen brothel is actually a garden shop. He doesn't really get that there are explosions and danger. It just floats right past him. Things I would like to do with my character: Bertie is my unabashed comedy character and I play him for lightheartedness and ridiculous threads. So for him I'm all for humor threads. In his canon, he often gets cajoled by friends to do risky and ridiculous minor/harmless criminal things. (Usually stealing things. Like silver cow creamers, or police helmets, or paintings that the owner hates and wants to get rid of but doesn't want to offend the artist...) So I'm totally up for those sorts of escapades. Additional Notes:
***** Character Name: Rene Belloq State of the character: Belloq is here for the archaeology and the valuable artifacts. Plain and simple. Things I would like to do with my character: I kind of want to do an Indiana Jones-style tomb run, dodging traps, deadly creatures, etc. Belloq is working at being charming lately, but I'd love for opportunities to let his dickishness and selfishness and greediness show a bit. Additional Notes:
Bertie and Braska need to get up to Harmless And Silly Shenanigans at some point, because their personalities would just mesh really well for something like that. Especially with Braska being entertained with any and all technology.
Yes! Bertie likes technology and new-fangled things (he's just not always very good at them).
Also, it occurred to me to wonder if, as a healer, Braska can sense Life Force or something equivalent to it. 'Cause Narvin is very resistant to telling anyone about his lost regenerations, but I'd like ways to make him talk about it.
He has a spell called Scan, which canonically we use to look at a monster's stats, including their HP, and if you cast it on your party members it'll also show things like the status effects they're under, etc., so I've been using it as a general "how healthy is this person/what's wrong with them" spell. He used it on Tauriel in order to learn more about the brainfart sickness, but otherwise hasn't been big on using it -- but he's definitely going to be a lot more careful now, after what happened to Dorian.
So. Tl;dr, if Narvin gets hurt or something and Braska ends up being the one taking care of him, that's how he'd find out. :Db Even if Braska intended to use items instead of magic to heal him.
Character Name: Emilia State of the character: Curious about creepers. Things I would like to do with my character: - Open a tailoring shop - Experiment on creepers - Experiment on bodies Additional Notes: Emilia is undead in a world where the undead are very much about the old ghost tropes of vengeance and unfinished business. She is a cranky witch who knows dark magic, regular magic, and Magic Johnson.
At some point, Emilia needs to actually find out about Holy Water and Spira's "Zombie" thing. We could maybe try to lead our one thread into that? Orrrr. Maybe she could come by his shop and see it?? Or see him bringing some to someone in the resort for whatever reason???
Eeexcellent. I've been thinking about putting up a log 'cause Braska promised Lindir at Blackmoon that they'd get together later, so we can include that in the log, too, if that works for you.
Character Name: Niko Bellic State of the character: Just sort of hanging out. He came in fresh from the "revenge" ending of GTA IV, meaning that his girlfriend died in a hit directed at him. He talked about the fall of Yugoslavia to Smiley and he's made friends with Elves. Sort of. Things I would like to do with my character: In the long run would like him to get his desire to follow his principles back. When Kate died, he believed his desire to stand by his ideals was responsible. He'd refused to do a drug deal for a man and instead killed the guy that had been harassing his family. He ends the game blaming himself for not doing the deal.
I'd like him to deal with that. Additional Notes: Niko can learn to drive almost any vehicle? And he likes guns and drinking...
Character Name: Agent K State of the character: One of the security supervisors that's accountable for security hired from other universes. Things I would like to do with my character: I'm not really sure? I just like him to talk to people. Additional Notes: -Expert at guns -Another crazy driver -Good with xenopsychology -memorizes enemy weakpoints -loves bureaucracy but thankfully won't shove it in the faces of those that don't -optimist without being an idealist -lost his babymama and never got to raise his daughter.
Character Name: Dr. Utrecht Visscher State of the character: Just showed up in time for creeperage. Things I would like to do with my character: I would like for him to have to trust his past/awful secret to someone, and make CR in general. Additional Notes: Have Visscher's PB in a completely un-Visscher like video here.
Character Name: Braska State of the character: Running his little shop with Wander as a part-time employee. Feeling really awkward in the aftermath of rescuing (read as: trying and failing to heal) Dorian and accidentally supercharging a creeper. Trying and failing to adjust to a world where he's not in a position of cultural importance.
Things I would like to do with my character: - As friendly as Braska is, he's actually usually pretty slow to make good, solid friendships. orz So that's a gradual process in most cases. - Between having helped find that one skeleton and witnessing a creeper try to attack Dorian, Braska's going to have a harder time keeping his head down and will want to get up and go out on ~Adventures~ soon? Maybe trying to go out and see the ruins himself?? Something like that? Or other generalized Exploring? - He's a Good Guy, but willing to not ask questions about the people who come into him seeking healing. aka, "Bring me your injured criminals!" - I have a distant dream of Braska being able to summon again, if only once, just to show how cool it is. ... that's it. that's why I wanna do it.
Additional Notes: Braska is a huge hero back from he's from. He's also dead. These are things he's been Avoiding telling people. Details can be found here. Someone please find out and blow his cover, or something.
Yeeeees, yesgood. ♥♥ I have all intentions of putting up a catch-all Braska log soon and they can meet up then and sing at each other and everyone can wonder why Braska's not actually an elf. Seriously, who does this?? Elves. Elves do this.
Wander and Braska should chat sometimes in the shop. Also, since I just got back from vacation, I'm not sure where the scene with Dorian is going. Would Wander be with Braska when Dorian wakes up?
Wander is all about exploring and adventures! We can be Team Help All the People!
Dorian's not gonna be waking up for a few days from the point that he passes out, and though Braska's gonna be checking up on Dorian, considering he's gonna bring up the whole "hey we're both undead-ish" thing, he probably wouldn't bring Wander along. Sorry, little bro :c
We can call that thread done though if you're stuck as to what to tag it with next, that's cool with me. We can assume they hung out there until Niko brought back help.
When I get Braska's log up we can totally do casual shop talk there. :Db Maybe it can segue into them wanting to go out and find Adventure, too, and that can spur Braska on to ask someone about getting more involved?
Character Name: Tauriel State of the character: Tauriel is slowly learning her way about technologies and the modern world. Currently, her job is border patrol but she is very curious about the creepers and is willing to help take them out or to find out more about them. Things I would like to do with my character: Basically anything! Tauriel would love to learn how to fire a gun or learn to drive a space age vehicle. Also social interactions of all kinds are welcome. Additional Notes: I'm a medium to slow paced tagger most days due to having a baby underfoot. Some days are better than others for tagging, but I am always willing ot back tag into forever.
Character Name: Una Persson State of the character: Working at the ruins and surrounding areas as a guide, shootin' creepers. Things I would like to do with my character: Una functions best when she has a cause and an adversary. She's already butted heads with Narvin and probably will continue to do so. More conflict in general is good. She's kind of casually friendly with a number of people; more friendships are good.
Character Name: George Smiley State of the character: Has a day job as an assistant manager at the bookshop, is actually a sort of undercover cop for the Security team, reporting directly to K. Things I would like to do with my character: SPY THINGS. Anything really. Someone other than Kay needs to learn that there's more to him than meets the eye.
Additional Notes: I am slow like a slow thing these days, and I apologize for it. My day job is pretty busy, as is my freelance work, so RP tends to get pushed down the list pretty hard.
I thiiiiiink I might have Narvin's desire to know all the things cause him to get involved in Black Sun Syndicate. So there may be opportunity for spies on opposite sides things between Smiley and Narvin there.
It's all very fuzzy still-in-conception-stage planning, but I was thinking of Narvin going to them rather grudgingly, but deciding that criminals or not they're his best chance of getting solid information and they go "Sure, we could tell you things, but what's in it for us?" and basically make him a contact worker spying for them, saying that they'll trade some of their intel only after he brings them a certain amount of valuable new intel in return. So Narvin would start actively spying on resort people and ambassadors and such.
Character Name: Lindir State of the character: Lindir is a guest at the resort, sent at the suggestion of his boss, who he's very loyal to. Right now he's just trying to relax, but it's a little hard when things like spiders and creepers are going on. He is trying to experience new things and enjoying himself, but it is so very hard. He's not good with change.
Things I would like to do with my character: Lindir obviously can be a humorous character to interact with, and those things are fun, but I'd also like to play him in serious times as well. For fun threads, trying new things will be hilarious, and will also help him develop his character to do things outside his comfort zone.
For serious threads, I'd like more of a sit down and chat CR going on. I welcome both! He enjoys music, nature, waterfalls, and fountains. He's fond of listening to the sound of water features.
Additional Notes: I'm in Sweden so my timezone is funky. Sometimes because of this I can be a slow-medium tagger, but I welcome boomerangs if we happen to be around at the same time.
Wander would be glad to encourage Lindr to try new things, but he also loves being around nature as well. He might also join him at the fountain just to listen to the water flowing, either because he wants to hear it again or he's looking for a way to calm down after an anxiety attack.
State of the character: Currently living in a room in the resort and exploring the town. He helps out Braska in his shop from time to time. Currently, he's trying to help Braska protect Dorian during the Creeper attack, so there's a potential scene.
Things I would like to do with my character: Wander is extremely curious and would love to explore the area outside of town, but with the Creepers, he needs someone strong to make sure he doesn't get hurt (not that he doesn't puts himself in danger normally). Serious characters with a soft side would make interesting exploration partners with him.
He's eager to help, so one of the best ways to have him meet your character is to ask him to assist you on some task. Especially with recent incidents, he'd want to do whatever he can to protect the other residents.
I'd like to have one event where he runs into a spider or Creeper and he tries to use a nonviolent way out while someone else needs to physically save him.
Additional Notes: Wander speaks with a thick Southern accent. Georgian, to be specific (as that's where his voice actor is from).

30 second clip of Narvin from shortly before his canonpoint.
And Narvin as a technician since that's what he's doing these days. (Returning to the career of his youth.)
