CR Meme!

[abitshort]

Outline borrowed from here!

Is your character new? Bored? Constantly looking for more people to bother? Are you looking to tag someone new and want to put out some feelers before starting a thread? Any or none of the above? Here's a good place to look into forming new relationships! Introduce your character and current plots here, suggest some future activities they'd like to be involved in, and get the ball rolling! Then tag around to other people, toss out some new ideas and try to be receptive to suggestions. Feel free to use the outline below, add more information, or just write whatever you'd like instead.

<b>Character Name:</b> Hopefully self-explanatory. <b>About Them:</b> Keep it brief! What are the key things you feel someone should know about your character? <b>What They've Been Up to:</b> Have they been working on something? Maybe they want to be? Just goofing around? Let us know! Anything can spawn inspiration. <b>Looking For/Future Plots:</b> Is there anything specific you want? Friends to go along with a surprise pool party at Ralph's house, evil plots, someone to sacrifice goats to your goddess with, a summer fling, WHAT? Try to be specific if you can- this helps people come up with ideas to do things with you! And if you have a specific goal you're aiming for as far as long-term stuff, list that too! Maybe people will want to be a part of it! <b>Things to Avoid:</b> Stuff you are absolutely against, as in types of relationships or just content you don't want to encounter in a thread. Literally anything you're absolutely against having. <b>Other:</b>

Character Name: Sabo

About Them: He's a pretty friendly dude who will protect those close to him with gusto! Seriously though, he's from One Piece and he has the Flame Flame Fruit power, I mean -- he would if he wasn't new here. Right now, he can't do much of anything combat-wise aside from polearm fighting and basic stuff. He's pretty decent at both, though!

He is kind of a workaholic, so he's going to want to find some work somewhere eventually.

What They've Been Up to: He just showed up. Seriously. This is part of the reason why I'm interested in building up CR or somethin'.

Looking For/Future Plots: Anything please please please!!!!

Specifically? I don't know. I guess hanging out, being taught how to bend so he can get his powers back, and just getting work somewhere are my main goals for him right now. Obviously, I know that these will all take some time, so if you're interested in helping him out with any of them, feel free to let me know and we can plan for the future!

Things to Avoid: Nothing really. I'm open to most things.

Other: <3 I'm a newbie here and my enthusiasm is Too High and I totes realize that, so please bear with me and tell me to simmer the hell down if I seem too excited haha. Please!!

[abitshort]

Romana didn't mind talking to him when they first met (which doesn't sound like much but is kind of impressive in and of itself because she's awful at socializing, especially with humans), so she'd be up for talking to him or meeting up again at some point! She's not combat-inclined at all, but she can give some pointers regarding bending and she's also a major workaholic. Most of her work is research-oriented, studying the city or mapping things out or refurbishing older buildings, but she could probably help him find something to get involved in one way or another!

Sora hasn't been bending as long as Romana has, but he is good with bending back magic (and he likes fire more than he should) so if Sabo ever wanted to practice or spar or anything he'd totally be game. Aaand then Pinocchio might be throwing a party with Agatha at some point in the future so if he does he'll totally reach out and invite Sabo. He strongly feels like everybody should be able to attend a party on a regular basis >(

[unfavorableinstigation]

Nita would definitely be game for helping him with Bending! And/or they can run across each other more in the coming months. X) Nothing serious I can think of, though.

[spiral_brow]

Sanji can definitely offer to help Sabo learn Bending. Help get him started, or something. ^_^

Doing my two in one post. :V

[unfavorableinstigation]

Character Name: Juanita "Nita" Louise Callahan

About Them: Wizard, Angelii, and not-quite-longtimer here!

What They've Been Up to: Member of the Task Force - has a few collaborative projects going (like dealing with linguistics, comparing/contrasting the worlds people Wake from, and attempting to figure out What Is Up re: making new worlds/Binding current ones).

Looking For/Future Plots: I am up for any and everything! -\('.')/- But seriously, Nita is always open to making friends, Angelii Training (she's never sought out a Bond with an Ashura, but I guess that's an option???), and throwing more negative CR her way might be good for her? And me; I need more practice balancing that.

Things to Avoid: Uhhh, can't think of anything for here? I haven't had her die yet and have no plans for that, but that doesn't mean I absolutely won't...

Other: ANYONE ELSE UP FOR ARCHIVE BINGING ON THE NETWORK? Also, CR for Bobo would be great.


Character Name: (Lord) Tiamaris

About Them: An Immortal Dragon working under the Emperor of Elantra.

What They've Been Up to: Similarly to Nita, he is on the hunt for Information... and keeping an always-wary eye out for that possibly-Isis-affiliated Outcaste Dragon! Working on scholarly things and Bending training with Clef.

Looking For/Future Plots: This is a big ??? section for him; so far he's been mainly reactionary and trying to figure out how like/unlike Ravellon this place is. While he's more open to other perspectives on this than Kaylin, he's also not blind to the fact that the two of them are the only ones who know Elantra so. It's an uphill battle. (Unrelatedly, I passed up on the chance to make him a girl for the week because I really just did not know enough about how his species psychologically handles the gender binary to portray it accurately. |D Something for a future storm, perhaps.)

Anyone who wants to challenge his Immortal Ego has implicit approval on my part, though!

Things to Avoid: ... Can't think of anything for here. Just don't expect him to throw a tantrum or be maudlin.

Other: DRAGONS!

[abitshort]

ROMANA'D BE UP FOR ARCHIVE BINGING as would I if I had the time to do it more thoroughly gdi but really, she'd be on-board for any project concerning the city tbh. She'd love to learn about it in more detail since she's kind of figured she's here for the long-haul with no desire to return home.

[playingtrack3]

Archive bingeing sounds good to this one, he's on the hunt for any and all info as is.... XD Also, he's really curious about Tiamaris, still.

[abitshort]

Character Name: Romana

About Them: Aka 'that Timelord who isn't another version of the Doctor'. She's too smart for her own good but incredibly bad at understanding humans and... most relationships, currently. It's a work in progress.

What They've Been Up to: She's currently refurbishing a house over by the swamp, so that's taken up a lot of her time. Mostly she's focusing on learning how to garden. She does a lot of archive reading in her spare time and she's undergone previous projects such as mapping out the caves underneath the city because that's her idea of fun I guess.

Looking For/Future Plots: After this storm she'll be practicing turning into a phoenix more regularly, so spending some time with anyone else who changes forms (or just knows how to fly in general) would be great. She always needs more human friends, honestly, and she'd appreciate anyone who can follow along in a conversation regarding research or would want to be a part of future projects to explore and document more of the city. One day she needs to talk about her Feelings to someone because she has lots of those but refuses to acknowledge them
...Also she's still working on rediscovering how to have fun. Someone please just drag her into it.

Things to Avoid: I can't think of anything currently!

Other: She acts highly opposed to nicknames but honestly please just stick her with a nickname, otherwise she'll keep insisting on giving out her full name and that's just a pain to pronounce.

[playingtrack3]

Do you want to keep going with their welcome thread, or handwave it to start something newer? Totally up to you. :) I just want all the Fred CR.

[younghero]

Character Name: Link!

About Them: At this point in Nautilus, he's 12. Link's Hyrule's hero, stuck in a reincarnation cycle for all eternity. He...doesn't exactly remember those past lives, but, he's aware of them at this point, as well as future ones. He's the Hero of Time, and has been through the emotional wringer in addition to saving his homeland from Evil. He's also saved the land of Termina. Link is a hot mess of trauma and is pretty sure everyone will eventually abandon him or ditch him somehow.

What They've Been Up to: He lives with his adoptive father, Clef, his princess Zelda, and his future incarnation's literal shadow, Shadow. Clef has been trying to educate him. Link has zero self-esteem when it comes to reading---he felt he was a good reader, but, Clef showed him hard words and that his inventive spelling was godawful, and now he feels stupid, and has zero motivation. He's only doing the education thing for his little family in Nautilus.

He helps on the Task Force, he's an Angelii and will help as needed in the the city. He also hoards weapons and has a Bombchu Bowling Alley in the Castle.

Looking For/Future Plots: Link loves meeting new people. He does best with other kids/teens. He's a little wary of adults, but, is friendly, until they get all bossy and adulty.

Things to Avoid: He's 12, looks more like 10, so no romance.

Other: Nothing I can think of?

[heroscrest]

Eventually Sora needs to learn about the Bombchu bowling alley because he would be all over that entire concept. He's also pretty bad (and unmotivated) regarding reading and spelling so they could probably commiserate on some level?

[spoilsfun]

Character Name: Conan Edogawa (Shinichi Kudo)

About Them: Famous high school detective currently living in hiding as a seven-year-old elementary school detective, due to an encounter with a criminal organization and their experimental poisons with really weird side effects. Idolizes Sherlock Holmes. Terrible people skills. Has been dunked in the De Nile four times so far for his skepticism and is fairly certain that Nautilus is laughing at him.

What They've Been Up to: Went back home for a month without telling anyone where he was going. Has been working on bending on his own time. Has also been steadily reading his way through the entire library.

Looking For/Future Plots:
Long term plots? He's finally willingly learning bending, so plots associated with that would be fun. Long term, he's trying to figure out how to use bending to return to his real age. So if anyone has experience with changing ages using bending, he'd be interested in learning. Although he's likely to be reluctant to explain why he's so interested.

I'd also like to get him involved in detective work here. No real plans yet on what kinds of cases he could get.

Also, I would love to get him some roommate and finally move him out of the welcome house. Or at least some responsible adult character CR. More kid character CR would be welcomed too.

Other:

[unfavorableinstigation]

Conaaan.

Nita may try to funnel some CR this way, if anyone's interested. =P Maybe pinging Connor or something would help...

Or Sunset. BEFRIEND THE PONYGIRL.

[heroscrest]

Character Name: Sora

About Them: 14 year-old keyblade wielder who's seen way too much darkness (literally) and yet is an absolute ray of sunshine (almost literally), partially because he never sits still long enough to actually think about what he's been through. Will literally befriend anything that moves, incredibly active and very good at talking nonstop.

What They've Been Up to: He's been working on bending his magic back! Although he still doesn't have great control over it, so don't be surprised if that means there's just fireballs flying everywhere or lightning striking random places. It's fine! He's also been training a bit with the keyblade because he realized he's not as good at sparring as he thought he was.

Looking For/Future Plots: Hmm... I'd like for him to get more actually involved in the city, I guess? He's met a lot of people but hasn't found a real role for himself yet, and any way to get him settled into a more permanent sort of goal or hobby would be good. He's talked with a couple people before about teaching sailing, so that's an idea he might consider at some point. He also should probably find a proper combat trainer eventually.

Things to Avoid: Nothing comes to mind.

Other: He loves talking about his adventures back home, let him tell you all about that time he encountered Mickey Mouse who was shirtless for some reason

[unfavorableinstigation]

Nita would be up for learning about sailing! =D

[djbubbles]

Character Name: Nino Lahiffe

About Them: He's a teenage DJ (and superhero in Wake) and pretty laid back (most of the time). He's extremely loyal to those he's close to and he can be forgiving to those who are do wanna change for the better.

What They've Been Up to: Dealing with the storm and before that, dealing with the Chaos Storm.

Looking For/Future Plots: At some point, Nino as Chat Deux, will accidentally get himself high on catnip again. Hopefully at least making people a touch more sympathetic to Deux. Or at least to laugh at his misery. Otherwise, he's also got other stuff planned (Adrien being akumaized, his Wake anniversary and the rest of October).

Things to Avoid: I guess dying again? He already did while transforming into a vampire during the Grabbag Storm.

Other:

[playingtrack3]

HI I HEAR YOU'VE BEEN TOLD TO AVOID ME

XD

(let's plot)

[unofficialspacedad]

Character Name: Takashi "Shiro" Shirogane

About Them: Leader of Voltron. He's very level-headed and understanding of other people's emotions (and having the patience of a saint). He also suffers PTSD.

What They've Been Up to: Also dealing with the Grabbag Storm and learning about bad things in the future.

Looking For/Future Plots: Other than potentially dealing with Galra!Keith post-storm, not real plans in the future. Other than an potential akumaization sometime next year.

Things to Avoid: IDK at the moment.

Other:

[borntolove]

I would like Space Dad and Ten to meet. Talk about space travel and being dads :3

[madeofpine]

Character Name: Pinocchio

About Them: don't act like you've never seen this movie before
He's a puppet kid who was brought to life with the task of learning Morals in order to become real. It doesn't work out that great most of the time.

What They've Been Up to: He's been taking a lot of science lessons with Azmuth because he's interested in robotics, and in-between that he's been working on some basic bending. More recently he's been having a slight existential crisis because of said robots (and also the entire concept of aging). Sometimes he practices with the crossbow Gregg gave him, but since he lacks an actual instructor for that now he's kind of... not great at it.

Looking For/Future Plots: He always likes meeting people who are interested in science! He's really latched onto that particular subject. As far as bending goes, I'd like him to kind of settle on one particular aspect of it but I'm not sure what direction I want to go as far as that yet- maybe he'd lean towards magic of some kind? He should probably hang out with the other kids in the city more frequently because he hasn't been out exploring in a while. Maybe one day he'll reach a concrete conclusion regarding how he feels about becoming human but that day is not today.

Things to Avoid: Nothing for the moment?

Other: ask him about his acting career, it ended spectacularly

[unfavorableinstigation]

We keep missing chances to thread out Nita demonstrating spells for him. |D I apologize.

Also WHALETIME.

[borntolove]

Character Name: 10th Doctor

About Them: He's 903 years old. He's fire and ice. Cocky. Arrogant. A prat. But loves you all. Yes, even you Simms!Master and is an alien with two hearts

What They've Been Up to:
Is teaching anyone who wants to get better at bending any level Caution methods may be unorthodox but he will not allow injury come to your character
City guide and watcher
Runs the local orphanage
Local therapist for those interested


Looking For/Future Plots: December he's being akumaized

Things to Avoid: Not against it but if something will result in death because of the Orphan household Ten runs please let me know so the close CR can know

Other:

[spoilsfun]

As one of the few children in Nautilus that 10 hasn't adopted, I feel like Conan should run into him sometime. I can't remember, have they ever met?

Irene Mallidias | OC

[dimeliora]

Character Name: Irene Mallidias

About Them: Resident Ashura of Redemption/Nautilus veteran, so not a bad go-to for newbies or anyone seeking to learn the swing of things in the city. Resident angel. Swordswoman. Heads the Task Force. Also just a bit of a snarky grouch, but is an actual marshmallow under the grouch, promise.

What They've Been Up to: As of now, just patrolling and keeping the peace and keeping monsters out of civilization in the north. :T Always practicing her Bending, always training to stay sharp with her swords, and always taking students who want to learn from her (though uh, caution, rigid teacher ahead enter at your own risk).

Looking For/Future Plots: I'd love to just get her some new CR! The grouchybutt could use more reasons to actually be sociable. :U I'm pretty much down for anything! If you'd like me to tag an open log for your character as they hang out at Furman's, or if they need a Bending teacher or if they wanna spar, hit me up!

Things to Avoid: Eh... I can't really think of anything at the moment. If it comes up though, I'll say something. <3

Other: I'm just a poor boooooy I need no sympathyyyyy

HE'S JUST A POOR BOY FROM A POOR FAMILY

[unfavorableinstigation]

... I'm game for throwing Nita more at grumpybutt!angel if you are! :>

Ianto Jones

[buttleslikearockstar]

Character Name: Ianto Jones-Harkness

About Them: Ianto is 25 years old but incredibly wise for his age. He suffers from PTSD but keeps it mostly under control.

What They've Been Up to: Have they been working on something? Maybe they want to be? Just goofing around? Let us know! Anything can spawn inspiration. He is learning how to bend from Four and making more friends. He is also getting to know Martha, Romana, and 10 better. He is also an animal lover.

Looking For/Future Plots: Is there anything specific you want? Friends to go along with a surprise pool party at Ralph's house, evil plots, someone to sacrifice goats to your goddess with, a summer fling, WHAT? Try to be specific if you can- this helps people come up with ideas to do things with you! And if you have a specific goal you're aiming for as far as long-term stuff, list that too! Maybe people will want to be a part of it!

I would love to get Ianto more involved with something, but I am terrible thinking of things. There are so many cool characters in this game. I want to play with all of you. Ianto is not above bribing people with really good coffee and sweets.

Things to Avoid: Stuff you are absolutely against, as in types of relationships or just content you don't want to encounter in a thread. Literally, anything you're absolutely against having. I really have an issue with dub consent and drug use in an excessive manner, due to some RL happenings in my life.

Other:

Re: Ianto Jones

[unfavorableinstigation]

Bribe Nita with sweets

But really, he doesn't need to! XD

And as for Tiamaris... he's not nearly as sociable as Nita, but if Ianto wants to encounter a Dragon and ask Jack about it, I'm up for that?

[impulsivepaladin]

Character Name: Keith

About Them: As far as he knows, current Red Paladin and pilot of the Red Lion. He had a canon update last year that led to him discovering that he's part-Garla, the aliens that were pretty much trying to take over the entire known universe, whoops.

What They've Been Up to: Currently he's been turned into his younger self during the Grab-bag storm, so he's pretty much distrustful of everyone, except maybe Shiro, although he doesn't get why Shiro suddenly has a chest now. He'll also be dealing with the fallout of discovering the future, because lol, hello guilt complex over his blood.

Looking For/Future Plots: he's going to need help expanding his house, since currently 3/7 members of Team Voltron live there. As do his fire pony and fire puppy. And Adela sometimes stays over. Also, at some point in the future, I'll probably have him stuck as purple and fuzzy for a week and totally avoiding Shiro because of BAD STUFF that they find out happens on Earth.

Things to Avoid: Nothing, really. Although if I was your character, I'd avoid hurting Shiro. Bad stuff happens when someone hurts Shiro.

Other:

[unfavorableinstigation]

/puts Nita into the 'not hurting Shiro' corner for safekeeping/

But really, if he puts out a call for help in Bending more of his house, Nita'd be glad to come on down for that!

[wisdominshadows]

Character Name: Zelda, Princess of Hyrule (and, occasionally, Sheik of the Sheikah Tribe)

About Them: The eternally reincarnated princess of Hyrule, destined to be kidnapped regularly and to then restore a kingdom on the verge of collapse. Alternatively: a going-on-nineteen-year-old whose adolescence was spent on the run from a tyrannical usurper, and has never really recovered from the damage the experience did to her. Generally appears as a gracious, gentle-born young lady but isn't terribly comfortable with other people.

Also has an alternate identity as a ninja-bard, which may or may not be a coping mechanism for feelings of guilt and inadequacy about how she ended up on the run in the first place.

What They've Been Up to: Zelda lives with Link, Shadow, and Clef in the Southern District. She has been on a solo-project since she arrived to fill in the gaps in her education (which are considerable, magical knowledge and practical survival tips being more relevant than anything that might help her should she survive Ganondorf) and can often be found in the library trying to read anything which might be vaguely helpful for becoming a good ruler and/or building a kingdom.

Sheik the gender-ambiguous ninja generally comes out at night and can usually be found on the highest points of Nautilus, playing the harp.

Looking For/Future Plots: What I've always wanted to do is get Zelda in a scenario where she can acknowledge why she clings to Sheik as an alternate persona- which basically boil down to feelings of helplessness and frustration with her own circumstances at home. Nautilus (where she's not constantly reminded of mistakes she made at the age of ten) might be able to help with this, but I've never been sure how to integrate it properly.

Also I've toyed with her finding out about the Great Flood from The Wind Waker, which emerges from her decision that it would be kinder to send her Link back in time and is quite possible for her to hear of in Nautilius as the Hero of Winds was a former resident. But that might conflict with the former interest, because realizing she has effectively doomed her beloved country would probably send her into a pit of depression, and I'm not sure how I would pull her out.

Things to Avoid: It's not necessarily something to avoid for CR purposes, but she's unlikely to be impressed with people who seem too obsessed with greed or ambition. People who seem likely to harm Link or Shadow will be on her shit-list for all eternity.

Other:

Because this doesn't seem to be working any other way

[playingtrack3]

Libraries are a favorite haunt of this one, too - perhaps they can meet and compare trauma notes. (His people psychically manipulated him for centuries, and he's just barely started recovering, so that's fun.)

The Mister Master

[playingtrack3]

Character Name: The Master, though he's got a few aliases.

About Them: 'That Time Lord Who Isn't The Doctor Either'... he's a sociopath but a chameleon about it ... so if you're nice, he'll act nice as long as he's got reason to. He's still new, and in fact-gathering mode, so he'll probably give an alias and a backstory to get as much info as he can about your character and their life here. Knowledge is power. Power corrupts. Study hard. Be evil. ... Though, to be fair, he's also genuinely looking for company. It's not easy being evil and insane. He's got a pretty wide range, emotionally, so I'm down for anything!

What They've Been Up to: He's still getting to know Nautilus and will be a Pokemon Scientist until the storm ends Sunday night, so ... recovering from that and realizing that he's still got a Mimikyu? Yeah. Fun. Expect him to be salty for the next couple of days. He's settled at KG & River's hotel, so he's got a place to live, but he'll be doing a lot of exploring and planning, which means if you've got an open log, I can easily tag on in! Also: ALL THE BENDING PRACTICE.

Looking For/Future Plots: His future is VERY MUCH up in the air, but I want a very long-term Villain Recovery for him. He spent centuries being psychically manipulated by the Time Lords, and as of his canon point, that's JUST BARELY stopped, so he's kind of a hot mess and not really sure what to do with himself. The evil villain thing is just a sort of "keep doing what I always did anyway" plan, but he's ... got some serious soul-searching to do and some pieces to pick up. Lots of potential for great, deep CR for any of you who enjoy that sort of thing.

Things to Avoid: I've already extensively talked to the Who cast about not immediately outing him as a villain so he has a little time to get a scheme together. I'll thread relationships/flings, but I prefer FTB if they go far enough, and anything non-con should be discussed beforehand. He's got a full permissions post in his journal.

Other:

[chief_of_staff]

Honestly, I think it'll be funny for him to use more saucy language in front of Sabo and Sabo picking up on using it in conversations with other people. Because he'd totally do that, at least with his friends. :>

[tanks4thememory]

Character Name: Clu 1.0

About Them: Friendly hacking program that looks like Jeff Bridges circa 1982

What They've Been Up to: He serves as the Task Force's intelligence division and thus spends a lot of time watching the network. Also helps Four with his spy-flower network for added creeping power and has been slowly attempting to make friends with Connor.

Looking For/Future Plots: Expanding his CR a bit, maybe doing something with the fact that he's an Ashura. Though I'm open to most things, honestly, so if you have an idea, hit me up.

Things to Avoid: Can't really think of anything off the top of my head. Like I said, I'm open to most things.

Other:

[playingtrack3]

CR: ???

[enchantressofore]

Character Name: Adela

About Them: A demon child who tries to keep her demon heritage secret because trust issues. She's started caring about more people which means those trust issues are now even worse. Why? Because losing people sucks and there are very few she trusts to stay while knowing what she is. Also she's obsessed with making swords and metal things and being good at using said swords and metal things.

What They've Been Up to: Adela's been affected by the grabbag storm and has spent the past few days believing she's been a part of the most weirdly functional happy family unit. Her worst problem is that her boyfriend has been messed with this time.

Looking For/Future Plots: This girl is going to be hiding out post grabbag storm because she's super freaked out about people finding out about her blood and what she is. I might do city shifts to force her out of hiding if her CR can't get her to talk about things, but otherwise I have nothing really concrete set for the future as of this time.

Things to Avoid: Can't think of anything at this time. I'll say if something I'm uncomfortable with comes up in conversation, but otherwise it's mostly just "ask me first if you're not sure".

Other: Dumb Angelii girl still needs to learn how to fly, or to be pushed into learning how. So there's that to play with.

[lanceylance]

Character Name: Lance

About Them: Former Blue/now Red Paladin of Voltron. Friendly and adventurous, likes people in general. Prone to flirting. Wicked good shot with a gun. His dream is to be a mermaid.

What They've Been Up to: Was a pony for a bit thanks to not listening to Sunset's warnings. Really, he does his own thing and can usually be found at the beach (despite living with Keith and Shiro in the West).

Looking For/Future Plots: Looking for anything anyone wants to throw at him!

Things to Avoid: Nothing really.

Other: N/A

[unofficialspacedad]

So yeah there's definitely some things Shiro will need to tell Lance. Not only that future vision he and Keith saw, but also other things too. Though the future vision would come first since that's kinda important.

Also I imagine Lance would freak out at seeing Shiro as a woman during the storm.
