not a joke CR MEME

[in_extremis]

relate your characters

I am not here to hurt you like the mods with CRUEL PRANKS. This is really a CR meme! Time to make some connections, lay out some plans, or just see what everyone else is up to for the foreseeable future!
I have provided a handy fillable chart, but do as you see fit to maximize your plotting abilities.

<b>Player Name:</b> Your handle. <b>Contact:</b> Where you can be found. <b>OOC Yays!:</b> Maybe you can find someone with a similar play style/time zone/weird niche interest! <b>OOC Nopes!:</b> Whatever you're really not interested in playing, whether it's just boring or actively upsetting to you. <b>Character name:</b> You know, like a name. <b>Expertise/Ship:</b> What datapoint they have, or not have, and what ship they are on. <b>Current residence:</b> Where they keep their stuff or sleep, if they do that sort of thing. <b>Typical activities:</b> Where they can typically be found on a normal day, where they might be run into or you can claim you might have seen each other around at some point. This is a good handwavey opportunity, if you're not into small talk, or an easy point of connection! <b>Character themes:</b> What's going to come up most often in a thread with this character, that you want to explore? This might also be a good time to remind/warn everyone of the darker stuff they could be getting into. <b>Ongoing:</b> Where is your character right now? What are they working on? What kind of connections have they made? <b>Future:</b> What would you <i>like</i> your character to be doing? Do you have some nefarious plans you're trying to put a squad together for? Do you have some development you're trying to reach? <B>CR You Want:</b> Friends, romance, enemies, mentors, hilarious misunderstanding hijinks. <b>CR You Don't Want:</b> Really only interested in a happy friendship or want Tony to stop flirting with you for god's sake?

Cobb Vanth / Ikora Rey

[heypartner]

Player Name: Moose
Contact: Plurk
OOC Yays!: I like building relationships, gen and romantic. All for a well played out story with friends.
OOC Nopes!: Please, no constant angst. I need my happy endings. And not too much crack.

Character name: Cobb Vanth & Ikora Rey
Expertise/Ship:
Cobb: Engineering/First Breath
Ikora: None/Bishop
Current residence:
Cobb: Moving out of First Breath and finding a house to fix up.
Ikora: Living on a lower level of the clock tower.
Typical activities:
Cobb: He will be spending his days fixing up houses and ranching glownies for food.
Ikora: Will probably be wandering all over, exploring, and trying to figure out the mysteries. It might be hard to find her since she doesn't have a routine yet.

Character themes:
Cobb: Always a general warning for themes of slavery and physical abuse with him. Trying to keep his past very, very quiet and hidden though. Just a man trying to build a community here.
Ikora: Just general weirdness and philosophy with Ikora. Might be casual about killing things and possible casual racism against certain aliens from her universe. Weird space wizard with a dark side.

Ongoing:
Cobb: I will have him do a post about his plans in detail but basically he's going to build a community whether people like it or not. He's got a few people who've agreed to help and a few he's agreed to help with their plans.
Ikora: Just got here. She's going to figure out a place and solve the mystery of how this all works. Probably spending time with Cayde and meeting new friends.
Future:
Cobb: Eventually, I do want Cobb's past as a slave to be found out by people. It would lead to some good character development. Anyone who wants to join in with some sort of leadership council, that might be fun with Cobb.
Ikora: Make friends! Figure out the mysteries of this place. Maybe learn the ways of other magical peeps? Or try to at least.

CR You Want: Give me all the friends and adventures. I love crosscanon stuff, especially learning about worlds and powers and having characters confront bias. Except 4th wall. Don't break that please. Cobb's got a thing for Mando and I have no idea what Ikora would be like as a romance, mostly thinking she's Aro/Ace? But fuck it, if the chemistry is right I'd be down to romance for her.
CR You Don't Want: Conflict is fine but I don't want like constant raging hatred and trying to kill each other.

Anything else?

[happybeeps]

I'd really love Cobb and Poe to hang out and be chill together, swap some stories, do some ranching. It'll bring Poe back to his childhood.

[hooliganstatus]

I have a feeling Aeon and Ikora will probably run into one another exploring All The Things. Also, more Cobb and Starling feel like kind of a given, I love them so much already. If he started a council, she might throw a hand in, but only if someone asked her to.

[the_child]

Uuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhheverything.

For real, though. I love him and Grogu. They're stinking cute! And Grogu's gotta help hook his dads up!

I love Cobb and Padme, too. It's so sweet! I want them to talk about more serious things once they get settled. Like leadership and politics and whatnot.

Also I need CR with Ikora. :D

[in_extremis]

I know I just told you that Tony was going to harass Cobb, and honestly, the more his puts himself in a position of Authority, the more likely Tony is to get up in his business.
BUT, Tony is also really invested in the rebuilding. He was following Reeve around with his projects, and he'll be happy to share his in-a-cave-with-a-box-of-scraps talents with anyone else's vision, just put on a show about being combative and unaffordable for the audience in his head.

THAT SAID, I think Ikora is weirdly more his speed. I KNOW she would not warm to him very quickly, Tony is not bothered by that, he will leave her presents like a cat bringing her dead mice anyway. This is just a gut feeling based on absolutely nothing, but if I was going to form a Temba Avengers team like my weird errant thought down there in my post, it would start with Ikora and Raphael. Why?? I don't know, that's for you to figure out.

Re: Cobb Vanth / Ikora Rey

[demjiin]

The last joke/image got me thinking "hey, if Cobb admits that it could be a cool thing in Kaz's eyes"

Although I do like the card game thread :V

Darkfeather | Obi-Wan Kenobi

[hadthehighground]

Player Name: Darkfeather
Contact: blackpidgeot and Discord: darkfeather#8447
OOC Yays!: I love just about everything. All the Jedi things especially.
OOC Nopes!: I don't want to call it a nope but hate towards Jedi and their beliefs is a bit hard for me, particularly as I have had some religious discrimination directed at me irl. I do enjoy a challenge and I'm up for negative CR but I have to pace myself.

Character name: Obi-Wan Kenobi
Expertise/Ship: Piloting/Twin Roses
Current residence: Obi-Wan will be laying claim to the museum and building his Jedi Temple there, and it is where he will also be staying.
Typical activities: As of right now, Obi-Wan will be spending a lot of time at the museum as he converts it into a temple. Though he can still be found around at various spots or even just exploring. But for the most part he will be at the temple.

Character themes: Obi-Wan is a bit of a mixed bag. Topics about Jedi stuff and the Force will probably come up a lot, especially as they just got back from Coruscant. Just know that it's possible for him to have PTSD episodes and possible talk of genocide and other terrible experiences in his life. Often times though he's pretty chill and is willing to talk about most anything.

Ongoing: Jedi temple! Again he's going to be working on this, as well as teaching all the young Jedi around. Plus babies! Obi-Wan is going to be doing his best to take care of Padme and her twins. He's going to be very protective of them.
Future: I've got some personal development in mind for Obi-Wan that will hopefully lead to shipping opportunities. But I'm also planning and hoping to have him start his own little mini Jedi Order here on Temba and possibly even be open to others with similar abilities. Also I want him to dad all the children.

CR You Want: EVERYTHING
CR You Don't Want: I'm open to almost everything, but if it's going to go an especially dark way I do like to stay in communication so there are no misunderstandings.

Anything else?
He's on a Varactyl

[happybeeps]

Billy's kind of curious about the whole Jedi thing, and the Force. It feels a lot like his magic.

Catra will almost certainly be a pest and invade your temple whenever she feels like it.

Poe's going to want to see his tree.

[hooliganstatus]

That GIF is gooorgeouuuus.

I'm too lazy to switch accounts, but Clarice is still sorry she made him sad at the temple. If he wants someone to help him work through his PTSD she could probably do it, she's gotten through her own traumas and knows a few helpful things.

[beholding_archivist]

OKAY, BUT!

.....can Jon come and study that Varactyl.......?
I believe I missed my chance when Boga was first introduced on the network.

[ezra_of_lothal]

Ok, ok, ok, but I was rewatching Twin Suns recently and was struck by how the first thing Ezra says to Obi-wan is "Master?" with a long pause before he calls him Master Kenobi. And maybe he thought for a second it was Kanan he was talking to, but he almost never calls Kanan master, so.

Anyway. All the mentor&student/found family CR, please.

Billy | Poe | Catra | Beck

[happybeeps]

Player Name: Devon
Contact: Discord- Devon#4359, pms, poke the Bear, technically on plurk but i almost never check it anymore
OOC Yays!: I can do pose or bracket, present tense or past, I will follow you. I do enjoy some good angst/drama/horror when it comes. I have two villain types for a reason, let me be horrible to you? Come be horrible to me? But also sweet stuff, and happy stuff, and grand adventures.
OOC Nopes!: I'm bad at writing physical fights, but I enjoy having them and want to get better, so...idk?

(character stuff to follow below)

Billy Kaplan

[wearingthestars]

Character name: Billy Kaplan aka Wiccan aka the Demiurge
Expertise/Ship: Medical/First Breath
Current residence: Young Avengers HQ (13 pink), with Tommy and formally Teddy.
Typical activities: He spends a lot of his time in the hospital. He really likes his job and feels useful when he's working there. You might see him flying/floating about the city, visiting the Greenhouses, or the Inn to see Tommy. He does a lot of casual reality bending, be amazed or terrified as you see fit.

Character themes: Billy's generally pretty sweet. He wants the best for people. On a good day he'll be quiping and sarcastic and full of knowledge about all kinds of nerdy stuff. Darker themes involve Billy's depression, and tendency to fall back into that. He was bullied in school- is gay, Jewish AND a mutant- so on a whole lot of peoples' hate lists just for being born.

His family issues can be similar to Tommy, though he grew up in a happy and supportive household, he had the adopted kid yearning to know where he came from, and struggles with that some times.

There can be mention of past suicidal tendencies/attempts on his life, and a whole whole whole lot of guilt.

Ongoing: Billy WAS doing pretty well, had settled into his role, but his fiancé just got blipped out of existence, so he's going to have a rough time with that. He's also struggling a little bit with feeling like maybe he's not good enough with the medical stuff, being unable to help Echo. He's sort of reconsidering if he should keep trying.
Future: After Billy's breakdown I want him to work towards getting better. Ideally he could really use some help, and some therapy. He has been doing his best, but would really like some adult support. Want to make him to friends, and get him to a more confident and happy place.

CR You Want: Friends, Mentors, Magic people, People who hate magic people. Conflict would be fun too, though it can be hard with Billy.
CR You Don't Want: Proooobably not looking for romance unless someone wants to app Teddy, but feel free to prove me wrong?

Anything else?

[ezra_of_lothal]

Player Name: Lis
Contact: skipthedemon or skipthedemon#5032 on discord
OOC Yays!: Relationship building/found family, Jedi or other power based weirdness creating plot as long as it's fun for everyone and not game breaking
OOC Nopes!: Not a nope, but I appreciate some OOC communication to talk through negative CR.

Character name: Ezra Bridger
Expertise/Ship: Agriculture/Vanquish
Current residence: Possibly the Vanquish until the Temple starts coming together? He'll be accessible.
Typical activities: He didn't really get a routine going before Coruscant even, so this will be a work in progress. He's going to be helping out with the new Jedi temple, first building it and then doing mediation and training type stuff. Helping out with residents developmentally younger than him. Also trying to help with growing/gathering/ranching food.

Character themes: Orphan, turned petty thief&conman, turned child soldier and Jedi in training. He's grown out of some of the self reliance his life on the streets instilled in him into being very community oriented - even shouldering responsibilities far beyond what he should have to for his age - yet he's inexperienced in other ways. While he himself is not a survivor of genocide per se, he's very conscious of having been adopted into a culture that's been nearly stamped out, while still remaining connected to his native people of Lothal.

Ongoing: Where is your character right now? What are they working on? What kind of connections have they made?

He's glomped onto the other Jedi in residence pretty hard, as well as some of the other people from his native reality, and feels like he's begun to make connections with some of the people from less familiar setting. Now he's ready to try to do some community building to try to make things better for all the Tembarians (yes, he's going to keep using that term.)

He's less thrilled about having met Kaz and Tony, but they do have a message from a mysterious holocron Kaz found on the Coruscant that they are sitting on...

Future: What would you like your character to be doing? Do you have some nefarious plans you're trying to put a squad together for? Do you have some development you're trying to reach?

In general, Ezra is very much someone on the edge of adulthood, who sometimes feels very much like a child. Growing into himself a little more will take time but relationships help too!

He will also be interested in the ongoing mysteries of Agra 10.

CR You Want: All the found family, friends with age mates, being adopted by mentors (of varying morality/sanity/reliability).

CR You Don't Want: I am up for virtually anything, although I am not super keen on shipping him with anyone, *especially* anyone not pretty close to him in age. I'm undecided on whether he's aro/ace. Either way, he lacks that sort of experience.

Anything else? Tooka! I am too lazy to track down a tooka/loth cat gif, but he is now occasionally followed around by a brown stopped half grown space cat, that remains unnamed for the moment.

OOC Yays!: I'm kinda slow lately, but if you're bored and want to ask me to focus something for a couple of hours, I am theoretically capable and that would probably help me feel a little more functional.
Here's a kind of specific thing I've randomly told some people: That weird, vague dance that people do in RP action scenes where everything is phrased like 'he aimed a punch and if it lands...!' is really annoying to me, both to write and to figure out what outcome you're actually intending. Let the punches land, and if I think that's going to be a problem, I'll tell you. I sort of assume that's how other people are comfortable treating me, too, so if I've ever done something in a thread that you thought was unreasonable and just were angry with me, I am sorry! My intention is that the door is always open for you to correct me. Uh, hopefully that makes sense. I don't know. Get back to me if you don't understand, or work a really different way so we can find some common ground.
OOC Nopes!: I am open to your strangest desires.

Character name: Tony Stark
Expertise/Ship: Communications/Bloodsport
Current residence: The Forge (Orange 24). I feel like I've described it 300 times and probably exclusively only to Devon, so let me know when you want to visit if you're tired of me trying to explain it or you've never seen it before. I should like...make a post for it or something.......
Typical activities: Scrapping and melting! If he's not foraging for materials, he's at the Forge making some new weird thing. Most recent major developments were the sabotaged speeder bike, and the Iron Man. If he's out and about in town, he's probably flying or skating around in the armor until someone can convince him to stop hiding in it. So you've probably seen this weird rollerblading metal man drinking soup through a straw.
If you want something built, he's your guy.

Character themes: I'm just going to copypaste this one until it changes.
Addiction/control and isolation/abysmal self-worth are going to come up and he is going to be constantly dramatic and depressed. Building things/solving puzzles/the future are good distractions and his happy place. He will just start giving you stuff if you are nice enough to pay attention to him for 0.5 seconds. a t t e n t i o n.

Ongoing: Right this second, Tony is still pretty depressed about Steve leaving, and now being back in Garbageplace, Garbagetown after being spoiled with Cool Future City. Though he will continue to flirt with everyone, he is quite obsessed with Jon, so if you're getting along with him then Tony can and will appear at some point, and probably break into your house to make sure you can be trusted. Normal stuff.
In general, he loves a lot but trusts very little, so if Tony has met your character, feel free to assume he is at least a little enamoured with them even if he is actively weird around them.
Game plot: Tony saw that holocron about Agra-10 and the Atroma that Kaz found on Coruscant! If you want to talk about game plot stuff, he's a trove of unconnected information and theories.
Future: I don't really know right now. I know I've set up little threads that haven't really gone anywhere yet (exploring the forest with Cal, and having a cheesecake party! Exchanging combat tips with Echo! Sorting out the extreme personality clash with Lauri-Ell!) but I'm not really working toward anything concrete. I am feeling slightly unmoored, which is definitely contributing to my slowness, and I know this is a thing I've got to work on for myself, but your support would be appreciated.

CR You Want: All of it. Tony can evoke strong reactions in people and I hope I have done that successfully, because I want CR in all extremes of the spectrum. No middle sliders!
Some specifics:
1. The Adventure Squad of Tony/Cayde/Jon are due for a new, terrible discovery. They don't all have to do the adventuring part necessarily together for this to still be entertaining to me, ie Cayde and Tony finding a hole and Jon only yelling at them about it after was Good. In sort of that vein, there are several new characters that I feel like would add a fun dynamic to the squad that I'm not going to call out specifically so I don't weird them out, but, uh...if you think this might be you, hey, hi. Lights some candles. Let's talk.
2. Everyone with armor HELLO??? I don't actually know what I want to do with this, but like. Picture it. Sicily.
Mando, Echo, and Tony all sitting on a porch together.
3. BECK. We have some plans, idk how much Devon wants to reveal her hand here, but it could involve Tony doing some really fucked up shit to people. Do you want to experience BETRAYAL? This is going to be kind of a delicate needle to thread, because I don't want to leave Tony entirely ostracized, but I would like to be able to get pretty dark. idk, we'll all have to talk, let me know if you're intrigued because discussion will have to happen.
4. Jon, my wife. I know there's a lot of ways that Jon is finding Tony really frustrating right now and I WOULD like to work through that, but I also feel like something has to...happen. Lots of things have happened, so I don't know what my actual criteria for Happening is, sorry. Also, I would like them to have a nasty fight and fuck about it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ is no one else using this meme for self indulgent nonsense? No, okay, don't look at me. Oh god there's a whole other question on this form.
5. This is actually separate from the Adventure Squad, they have their own thing going on, but....New Avengers. Hm. Much to think about. It's a family.

CR You Don't Want: I can't think of anything! If you have a thought that you are worried might be too extreme/weird/uncomfortable, I'm open to talking it through. If you're on the opposite end and think you're being boring...idk, don't do that, I guess. Tony, in character, can have some petty reactions to some dumb things (MAGIC shakes fist), but OOC don't take that as a reason to tone it down, go all the way for it.

Anything else?

Spectre | Din Djarin

[foundlingfather]

Player Name: Spectre
Contact: Spectreselva Discord: Spectreselva#7914
OOC Yays!: Give me anything, I'm not picky. Specially love building up relationships, romantic or gen.
OOC Nopes!: I'm up for negative CR, cause it happens. Just like communicate with me about it But no constant angst, please.

Character name: Din Djarin aka Mando
Expertise/Ship: Security, probably switching to piloting or engineering though/Twin Roses
Current residence: Twin Roses, but I want him to move out of it eventually
Typical activities: He'll be helping out with the building of the Temple, residences for people. Cause we're all a big community here. When he's not doing that, he often patrols around the city, watching out for trouble, cause he gets restlesshe's not used to being stuck in one place all the time

Character themes: Mandalorians, and his creed. Not using his name/showing his face, not removing the helmet, not knowing shit about star wars. He tends to not talk about his past, or really about what's happened back home.

Ongoing: After the whole trip to Coruscant, he's currently in a pretty good place growth wise, but he's still kind of got stuff he's figuring out in terms of the creed and all. He's staying involved in stuff with Grogu and his training, and trying to figure out how to deal with these weird new feelings he's got for Cobb.
Future: The helmet's coming off at some point, at least for Grogu. I'd love at some point, some how for it to come out that he was a foundling, or at least how he was found. Also all the CR with kids. He would be interesting to have him branch out and dad more kids XD Force sensitivity not a requirement.

CR You Want: ANYTHING, crosscanon is always so interesting.
CR You Don't Want: Open to most anything.

Anything else?
Friendly reminder that super serious Din is played/voiced by a giant dork

OOC Yays/Nays: I really don't have any yays or nahs at the moment

Tommy Shepherd

[doubled_speed]

Character name: Thomas "Tommy" Shepherd AKA Speed
Expertise/Ship: Agriculture | Twin Roses
Current residence: Pink 13 with his youger/twin brother Billy Kaplan
Typical activities: First thing to note, Tommy only sleeps for four to five hours because of his metabolism. This means he spends 26 hrs of the day awake. His day follows a general schedule below.

-Tend mushrooms in the greenhouse in the morning
-Go to Diner and make breakfast
-Weeding in the greenouse
-Time transporting food from greenhouse to the diner and preparing things for long term use
-Make lunch at the diner
-Time harassing Tony or Billy
-Make dinner at the diner
-Time on his island until sundown
-Talking to Billy until bed
-Sleep and repeat

Character themes: Tommy's threads are about finding purpose and making friends. He supports others as much as he can and slowly builds to a point where he can open up to them. He's quick to make friends, but slow to be honest. He doesn't bring up his darker stuff except with friends.

Ongoing: Tommy's made friends with a lot of people, identified droids as his family, and he's learning to cook and some engineering. He's mostly trying to improve himself. He also gives people grief if they give him issues about being powered or acting like he's weird.
Future: No nefarious plans, mostly just Tommy trying to deal with things. Right now he keeps a lot of relationships shallow.

CR You Want: Tommy definitely wants more friends and mentors. Maybe a slow build romance? He is sorta pining for his guy back home though. So probably more casual.
CR You Don't Want: Please don't mind control him.

OOC Yays!: BEAR WHY ARE THESE QUESTIONS SO HARD
OOC Nopes!: Iunno

That One Not-so-Broken Jedi

[out_of_order]

Character name: Cal Kestis
Expertise/Ship: Engineering / Bishop
Current residence: Cal stays with BD-1 at the salvage/workshop thing he set up in the northwestern quarter of the city.
Typical activities: When he's not training he's either scavenging or doing some "light" exploring (EVERY DAY IS ARM DAY) or whatever maintenance might be needed.

Character themes: The past traumatic experiences will always be there but Cal's at least gotten to a point where he's come to accept responsibility for the things that have really been bothering him. He's realized the depth and importance of sacrifice, but he's also opened himself up more to people than he originally had. I guess past trauma will always be a potential thing, especially given his ability to read 'echoes' off of objects that might have strong ties to previous events and people.

Ongoing: With other Jedi around, Cal's working at being better at his own skills. He's had a huge break from his training so there's a definite roughness to his abilities lol lightsaber form what's that. It's both strange and comforting having other Force users who can relate to the things he's been through. At the same time he's in a weird sort of position, so used to being on his own and around non-Jedi so there's something of a disconnect. He also seems to have been semi-adopted by Tony and Jon so there's this concept of family kicking around that he doesn't really want to let go of, especially after hearing how fondly Ezra spoke of his own crew/family.

Future: Cal's going to be poking around at that old radio tower and control box since he hadn't gotten a chance to after Jon had mentioned it. I think he's one of the few that are familiar with Atroma tech to at least identify the origin. I believe Obi-Swan has some plans for Jedi temples or something so he'll help with that as he can too. More echo seeking?! -not that Echo.

CR You Want: ALL THE THINGS, bringit. Although honestly I'm bad at romance. I think I'm best at ba-couples and awkward relationships when it comes to that end.

CR You Don't Want: N/A

OOC Yays!: Backtagging!! Love it. Depend on it considering I may be the only European in this game and work nasty factory shifts? I literally have days where I get no tags done or simply return home and pretend to be dead for two hours before heading to bed, so I really, REALLY appreciate everyone who has patience with me.
OOC Nopes!: Ooooof..... I will let you know when I find something, I guess? Or maybe it's just lack of communication where communication may be needed? I dunno, really. I'm not one who's easy to scare away.

Character name: Jon // Jonathan Sims // The Archivist
Expertise/Ship: Communications / Vanquish
Current residence: The library. Though he much rather lives in its basement.

Typical activities:

Obviously at the library, whoops. Though Jon also ventures out into the ruins of the city to climb around in them and search for anything that might be interesting.

Character themes:

Well. Reminder here that Jon is the protagonist of a horror podcast, so... Horror. Creepy, murderous clown dolls, body horror, lots of EYE symbolism, rituals, end of the world talk, death, kidnappings, basically being an eldritch monster, he will SEE YOUR FEARS... That sort of nonsense. I generally tend to not get too detailed on whichever body horror may come up by default, just so you know. When he isn't all about FEAR and impending apocalypses, Jon likes to learn stuff. And explore. He is stupidly curious. Upcoming theme will be guilt.

Ongoing:

He does stuff. In the library. Which has become home to his mothcat Countess and her litter. So those are two things demanding his attention. Another good chunk of it remains devoted to Tony even though the man frustrates him at times. Overall he prefers being in Temba to being back in his own world.

Future:

Canon update to the end of his series. That's the big and important thing and will bring about significant changes to Jon's powers, the way he perceives the world and himself. But those are details I have yet to fully put to words for myself. He will feel miserable and guilty and will need some of his friends to talk through some stuff with. Until then I hope to give him a break. maybe let him be happy for a little while before he wakes up again knowing he has effectively killed his own world. If he's lucky, I will finally have him break into the lab.

CR You Want:

Everything. I love that Jon is making friends, but I have also enjoyed the quarrels he has had at times. And he's such a great candidate to simply get in trouble! He's too curious, too prone to ask too many question, pretty protective of Tony, Cal, Tommy, Billy and others he has come to consider his friends...

- Exploring. I want to send him exploring again, preferably in the locked lab. Which may very well happen with his usual team of troublemakers.

- Friends. Jon needs friends, especially if I'm going to canon update him. Help him look after his flock of young mothkittens, perhaps? Or have them cause trouble for or steal from you. Great bonding opportunity here.

- Romance? Heh. Some fluff. Yes, Bear, this is you. I still adore these two disastrous idiots, but it might be easier if I simply responded to your top level for them.

CR You Don't Want: Same as most: I'm open to pretty much anything.

Anything else?

[hooliganstatus]

Curious, trouble, and guilt themes? Hi, yes, this is very similar to what I want to do with the new gal. I would love to figure something fun out with you for them!

Also, Clarice is really enjoying talking to Jon and she'll make good on her offer to help in the library if he wants. :D She also likes Tony, so if she's not coming to say hi to one it'll be the other. If they're close enough once he's updated she'll definitely try to help him through it. She's good at helping horrible people get over their trauma. ;)

Expertise/Ship: She's on the First Breath and hasn't chosen a Data Point yet, but I'm leaning towards Agriculture because of her canon stuff on a ranch, and because cooking.
Current residence: She doesn't have one yet! I'll be tackling that once they arrive back at Temba.
Typical activities: She'll probably be getting the lay of the land for a little while, because she's new. These first few questions are gonna feel a tad repetitive with Aeon, just warning you. ;D But she'll get found at the bar in the evenings, mostly because she's guessing that's where everyone goes to socialize, so she can catch up with people.

Character themes: Clarice is all about Helping People, so she'll be looking to pitch in wherever she can. She's dealt with a lot of her demons by this canon point, so if anyone really does need an ear or a shoulder, she'll be happy to talk or just listen.
Ongoing: She's got a lot of supplies she brought back from Coruscant that she's going to find places for. These include some electrical supplies, wiring and switches and such, and some DIY books about basic carpentry and plumbing. They're in Aurabesh, so she'll need some help transcribing, but she thought they'd come in handy for rebuilding.
Future:I know there was some joking about a therapist on Discord, and maybe in time that's something she'd do in an unofficial capacity. She's really missing Hannibal something fierce, but she won't bring up the Darker Stuff or the fact that he's, you know, a serial murderer, unless she's really, really built up some trust. I'd love for that to happen, but it'll take a while.
CR You Want: First of all: Tony, never stop flirting, she thinks you're fun. I know there are some characters she hasn't met yet, and this is a small game, so I've got no excuse. I want her to meet evvvveryonnnne. They don't all have to be BFFs, but I want her to at least be familiar with folks. She's not a Leader Type but she loves gathering information, so maybe eventually she'll help Jon in the library? IDEK, this is all brand new, throw some ideas at me and we'll see what sticks!
CR You Don't Want: Looking at our cast, I don't think there's any potential for anything I wouldn't want. This is all amazing.

Anything else?

Character name: Aeon Flux
Expertise/Ship: She's been assigned to the Vanquish! I feel like I should apologize. And I'll probably also give her Communications as a data point, though she'll be playing around with them for a WHILE because she's a gremlin.
Current residence: Undecided! I'd love suggestions!
Typical activities: Poking her nose into everything, especially stuff that looks like she shouldn't.
Character themes: I really want her to learn the concept of CONSEQUENCES, because she doesn't get those so much in canon. Even if something kills her, she just gets recloned. It's not gonna be that easy here. She's got some really deep-buried guilt over a few things, and is going to have to learn a whole new culture. I've mentioned it in chat, but her culture has almost zero personal boundaries or concept of intimate privacy, so that'll be a hard, fast lesson. I have an opt-out comment in her permissions post if there's anything you don't want to thread with her or anything you want her to avoid messing around with.
Ongoing: Uh - everything? I've had 2 TDM threads so far, but since everyone was on CorusCan't Count These As Canon ... XD
Future: As Tom Petty once said, the future is wiiiiiiide open.

CR You Want: EVERYTHING. I'd love someone to be her Culture Sponsor, but they're gonna need a lot of patience. /watches everyone volunteer Obi-Wan or Padme
CR You Don't Want: I will try very very very hard not to make her piss someone off enough to want to kill her right off the bat, because I don't want it to happen. ;)

Wow, how does Aeon feel about babies?

Lore's Gang of Miscreants

[no_applause]

Player Name: Lore
Contact: Journal PM, eternalferret, or Discord at SupahFerret #0368
OOC Yays!: EVERYTHING. Seriously. Good, bad, indifferent. I like it all and want it all.
OOC Nopes!: Nothing comes to mind.

The Senator

[no_applause]

Character name: Padme
Expertise/Ship: No expertise, yet, but I'd love for her to get one. Ship is the Vanquish
Current residence: Uuuuhhhh TBD.
Typical activities: She's yet to step foot on Agra-10 so that's up in the air. But she'll be taking care of the babies, taking walks (either with the babies or by herself while they're napping and being watched by nanny droid), and trying to learn as much about her new home as possible.

Character themes: She's an orator so she's good with words. If you engage her in debate it will be a challenge. Right now, though, she's really focused on new motherhood and figuring out how to help the planet. Oldbies can expect a lot of questions and talk about what she can do to help.

Ongoing: Babbies! For real, though, she's trying to make friends with literally everyone. If not friends, she at least wants to meet them and find some common ground. She's loving learning about people and where they've come from!
Future: She wants to save the world! I definitely want her to get involved trying to organize relief efforts and trying to work on things. I would also love some kind of actiony thing to happen at some point so she can show off how scrappy she is!

CR You Want: Everything!
CR You Don't Want: I'd like to discuss any seriously negative CR if that happens. Other than that, come at me.

Anything else?

Allotrios | Drake Riley

[dr_riley]

Player Name: Allotrios, or sometimes Sparky
Contact: allotrios
OOC Yays!: Stupid ghost shows, Disney animation, drawing, writing, history memes, cats, character music. And RP. As for RP loves, mmm, relationship building is always nice, and Story is King. I love a good story, and compelling character development.
OOC Nopes!: I ain't even care.

Character name: Drake Riley. Doctor Drake Riley.
Expertise/Ship: Engineering for daaayyyzz and he's on the cheerfully named Bloodsport.
Current residence: At the moment, he's a space hobo.
Typical activities: Drake will probably be found in a lab of one sort or another, or his apartment/house when or if he gets one. He'll be trying to interface his tablet with various systems, like ship's computers, power grid, whatever might need maintenance or attention. He likes eating out, and if there's a restaurant with spicy food, he might be there. He will NOT be at a bar, or anything like a fighting pit or racetrack or other gambling establishment, not unless it's required for something unrelated he's working on.

Character themes: He tries not to let on, but Drake is very emotionally damaged, and has deeply ingrained self-worth issues. This will probably not come up unless directly addressed or he's built up a lot of trust. At the same time, he's arrogant, impatient, and dismissive, and without his team to interact with people for him, these charictaristics can get him into trouble. As unpleasant and tightly wound as he can be, he also tries very hard to do the Right Thing. Be prepared for him to be annoyed and judgemental.

Ongoing: Drake just got here and is still reeling. He's met three or four other people, all of whom have either been friendly or have actively helped him in some way, which he isn't quite used to.
Future: He'll probably spend a little time at first trying to find out how to go home. But once it really hits home that he's needed, he'll be doing all he can to improve living conditions on the planet, with a particular focus on determining the nature of the energy storms which are the root of all the planet's problems, and experimenting with various techniques to alter, negate, or shield the planet - or the city, at least - from them. (He's ambitious.)

CR You Want: He could use some friends, honestly, although it'll be hard to get to the soft squishy nougat beneath the obnoxious dark chocolate shell. But, y'know, anything is fine! He's bound to make some enemies, or at the very least, piss some people off. He may latch onto people who remind him of his team mates.
CR You Don't Want: It's all good, although being flirted with will fluster him.

[in_extremis]

okay but
will meeting someone with this many similarities make fast friends, or will they REALLY hate each other?

lmao hello, nice to meet you, let's talk about how we can make each other's lives difficult.

Tony WILL flirt with him, especially if he gets obviously flustered until something breaks.

Sailor G | Keith

[tempredmental]

Player Name: Sailor G
Contact: sailorgundam06, Discord: SailorGundam06#2608
OOC Yays!: Almost anything. I'm really easygoing with what I'll RP with someone. But I do like to plot things out ahead of time if they're going to have serious repercussions in the game.
OOC Nopes!: Smut... I am okay with fade to black and skipping the "art scene" to the after-glow. I'd rather skip the actual act of. Though, that probably won't be much of an issue because Keith's engaged to Lance, and Rel already knows my preferences. We've got a good system for handling their time together. :D Also, no perma-death or permanent injuries. Beyond that, I'm good.

Character name: Keith
Expertise/Ship: Pilot/Bloodsport (though he has a soft spot for the Huntress, which currently is sitting unused in the hangar thanks to the Agrii ship plot)
Current residence: Hotel, but looking to move (house-hunting with the fiancé)
Typical activities: Chillin' in the hangar doing pilot-maintenance duties, training his fight skills in various places that are good for that, fighting off any weird and hostile creatures, spending time with Lance doing cute engaged couple things, being that annoying little brother who worships his big brother with Shiro, taking on dumb challenges when called out (like racing small vehicles, sparring, competing against others in physical exploits...)

Character themes: Keith has abandonment issues. He's also a CRAU, so he talks about Drift Fleet (his previous game) a lot. He comes from a war story canon, so there's going to be talk of injuries and fighting and trauma... maybe not directly and out loud, but I might add it to narrative/flavor text for context on why he'll act or respond a certain way to someone. He was never big on being touched because he was on his own early in life, so people he's not close enough to will likely get a weird reaction from him if they touch him or grab at him. What that reaction is will depend on the situation, but it could be anything from a quick glare, to him freezing up and getting tense, to maybe even taking a swing at the person without realizing it. He can be quick to anger if certain buttons are pushed... like teasing him about something in a mean way, calling him bad things, insulting/threatening friends or family. Once he gets angry, he's pretty explosive and quick to lash out physically. Keith isn't really verbose, so, when he runs out of words to fight with, it becomes his fists, and that can happen pretty quick.

Ongoing: His main thing right now is investigating the light now that it's moved off into that weird distance. Also... as mentioned earlier, house-hunting... and planning a wedding.
Future: Nothing really thought out here at the moment. Just sort of rolling with the punches as things go.

CR You Want: Keith needs to work on that found family dynamic. He had it in canon, of course, and he had expanded out cross-canonly in DF. I haven't been able to find it again for him, here, so I'd like to work on that... any member of a found-family, too... sibling-ships, mentors, proteges... Keith is in a spot in his life now where he wants to pay it forward with what Shiro did for him as a kid, and he'll take any lost troubled kid and try to help them out. I'm also open to negative CR if anyone wants to have some friction or rivalry with him. Keith is prone to it, and has had that kind of relationship with people in canon. I'm willing to play it. Whether we resolve it and have them eventually become friends, I'm open to either yes or no on that.
CR You Don't Want: I'm not looking for romance with him because I already have that in game. Feel free to have your character develop a crush, but, be warned, Keith will be oblivious because he's happily settled with someone already.

Anything else?

[heeeyadora]

Catra could be the Keith to his Shiro, but it would take a lot of work.
Conversely they could just have a lot of negative CR because she's very good at provoking people.

One Clone Out of Millions

[on_repeat]

Player Name: MK
Contact: Roger me, Wilco me, anything! DM | MK_otro | Discord: MK otro#3158
OOC Yays!: General relationship building, storylines, conflict, what have you. Also open to OOC communication omg bother me plz I will do my best to clarify things or bore you to tears with clone information, whatever comes first.
OOC Nopes!: Romance? Because I have no idea what I'm doing with it. Also I don't think this is really a nope but SOMEONE TELL ME IF I WRITE TOO MUCH SOMETIMES??? In general there might be other things for both yay and nay but I can't think of it right now :|a

Character name: ARC 1409 "Echo" Gary
Expertise/Ship: Security / Bishop
Current residence: Goes between the Bishop, the space IKEA, and maybe one of the buildings across from that space IKEA but we'll get to that in a bit. Otherwise he's patrolling around the city like he do.
Typical activities: Patrolling, lending a hand wherever it's needed, inventory (?), training, hanging out at The Deep End, standing off to one side for a while to overthink everything, doing recon/exploration. You know, normal clone trooper stuff.

Character themes: Clone clone clone. War and the stuff that comes with it. Commodity vs. Humanity. (Still) learning how to deal with being able to have the freedom to do things outside of set orders and protocol. Adaptation. You can take the clone out of the army, but you can't take the army out of the clone. Family is important. Brotherly bonds. Parallels? Other thing I may not have on here because they slipped my mind.

Ongoing: He's fresh from having his inhibitor chip removed at the Jedi Temple during the Coruscant field trip (and he kept the bottle). So there's a lot of readjusting to do now that that's out of the way. Although he's fine with having some quiet back in his life, he'll try to fill his time as much as possible just so he feels like he's doing something productive.

Future: Gotta bullet point a bit
- I do want to toss a log up sometime to just cover some ground, maybe mid-month because I really gotta get other stuff done (augh what is time management and why can't I do it)
- Concerning his personal SW timeline: there are still gaps in all of the future stuff he's been told about, but he's actively not pursuing them out of respect for those who have suffered through it. He figures there's still more bad news than good at this rate, so.

CR You Want:
- Friends: Adventure and exploration friends, fighting friends, awkward friends, all the friends??? I'm open to most things!
- Family: Kind of overlaps with friends. Gotta protecc and assist. He misses his brothers, okay??
- Enemies???: Or maybe 'I don't trust you fully'/'didn't like that' kind of thing I'M NOT SURE WHAT I'm TALKING ABOUT help
- Hijinks: My friends, I'm all for this.

CR You Don't Want: Romantic relations are still on hold, but I will say this – Flirting is now free game. (You're welcome, Tony) Echo doesn't understand it and doesn't know how to do it, but he'll learn. Or won't. Who knows???

Anything else? I was going to be horrible and link a spoilery awful gif but now I have nothing except kittens

[heypartner]

I want Cobb to take Echo under his wing and teach him the ways of being a free person.

cerie | sansa

[theladyofwinterfell]

Player Name: Cerie
Contact: easiest is at sheikah#5408 on discord but you can also PM me
OOC Yays!: I play in EST but I tend to be nocturnal. I work for a youtube management group so I am always online unless I'm asleep so if I'm not doing tags, I can talk about tags.
OOC Nopes!: I don't like a ton of angst. My IRL is fraught enough in this pandemic world so I would like RP to mostly be happy fun times.

Character name: Sansa Stark, First of her Name, Queen in the North, Lady of Winter & The Queen Who Stood (and her baby, James)
Expertise/Ship: She's on the Vanquish this time around and I'm giving her medicine
Current residence: Nowhere, because she showed up in the Coruscant plot, but probably will steal her old digs.
Typical activities: Carrying this teething child. No, seriously, James is cute but he's teething so Sansa isn't sleeping. She's exhausted.

Character themes: It's kind of a weird thing but other than Tyrion, who was her baby daddy, no one has ever loved Sansa in a romantic sense and she's actually been abused by a partner. So having someone be good to her would be great, especially since she has the baby now. A lot of her themes have to do with trusting people and getting to be herself - two things she can't do at home.

Ongoing: She just got back but her pick-back-up connections are Wanda Maximoff (best friend), Tommy Shepherd (adopted nephew), Billy Kaplan (adopted nephew), Tony Stark (it's complicated, it's weird)

Future: I do want her to branch out from her little Marvel circle because she's been with them since Drift Fleet and she just went through the trauma of having to hide her kid for five months

CR You Want: Always more friends, a romance would be fun to play since she has abovementioned canon issues, New Moms Club with Padme
CR You Don't Want: Tony stop flirting with her for Gods' sake. Nah, he can, but I as a player don't want any particularly bad CR with her? I don't like a ton of angst and while some plot stuff I'm down for, angst and misery for the sake of it isn't my bag.

Anything else?



he hasn't stopped screaming in two days and i'm dying, save me.

[heypartner]

/sneaks this in before running off to work.

Glownie ranching. Being friends. Babysitting when Sansa needs a break.

Ikora is strong lady and should hang out with other strong ladies. Like Sansa.

Detailed thoughts later when I'm not running out the door!

Player Name: Angel
Contact: PMs to this journal are best or I'm at Angelcide#3351 on Discord
OOC Yays!: My favorite thing to write is frenemies, and the runner up is my character being super clever and having planned for every eventuality
OOC Nopes!: Humiliation. It's just not my bag.

Character name: Kaz Brekker
Expertise/Ship: None (gasp)/Bloodsport
Current residence: Kaz has an 'eccentric' sleep schedule, but when he does sleep it's on the Bloodsport
Typical activities: This one is hard because he's literally everywhere. He's been learning all about Temba from the greenhouse to the diner to the hospital to the library and anywhere in between. Chances are good you've seen him all over the place.

Character themes: WARNING This character has some very dark and very intense themes. If your character can read minds/read fears let me know so I can add a CW

Ongoing: Presently he's on the Bloodsport in between being all over the map. He's still got the holocron from Coruscant, despite not being able to open it. He'll try seeking out Ezra soon.
Future: This oneis harder because stuff is in flux right now. Kaz's eventual goal is to have secrets for the whole game. First he has to find a Spider to listen at doors and windows to learn those secrets though.

CR You Want: Friends would be hard with Kaz but if you can get through his prickly personality then it's possible. More likely Kaz has 'allies' but he could really use people that are nice for no other reason than they like to be nice.
C R You Don't Want: Romance. This would be almost impossible in Kaz's case and even in canon it's a very specific set of events, plus years worth of working with the same person.

Anything else?

[beholding_archivist]

Okay... So out of curiosity: What do you mean by 'he has to find a Spider to listen at doors and windows'? Is this an ability of his that hasn't been mentioned in his app/permission post?
