IC INFORMATION


CHARACTER NAME: Gorp Goro
CANON: Mortal Kombat, specifically from the timeskip period in MK11.
SIGN: The Chariot
FACTION: Free Cities

CHARACTER INFORMATION: The boss monster you thought was the pinnacle of cool when you were 12, Goro was part of the first group of Free City Summoned, and since he arrived he's generally been making a nuisance of himself, trying to press for a war that he feels is inevitable anyway and would just like everyone to get there faster. He's the current "face" of a movement of like-minded Free Cities citizens who also believe in a more aggressive foreign and interventionist foreign relations policy, a position he wriggled his way into after the events of Eifstide. Also spells the word "combat" with a "k". He is extremely distrustful of magic and those who wield its power freely; he's known too many sorcerers (two. he's known two.) to trust the intentions of people who turn to an unnatural power like magic.
CR YOU WANT: Allies & Enemies! Goro comes from a world where casual brutality is a way of life, and espouses a philosophy of might makes right. He thinks all this dancing about around the Singularity is a pointless waste of time and is actively trying to push the Free Cities into war with Thorne and Solvunn. Anyone who agrees and will help him get this war (by any means necessary), or who wants to oppose him and try to do something about his ever-tightening grip on the Free Cities (at present he's one of three people with the highest Influence in the faction, the other being a Captain America and Dark Fantasy Mick Jagger) is welcome. I also love the idea of people who can match him physically; Goro is exceptionally strong and fast in a way that few of the mostly-human Summoned can match. Someone who can go toe-to-toe with the big guy and give him the fight he wants would be a welcome change of pace.
CR YOU DON'T WANT: Don't try to romance him, if you were actually inclined to try. XD; Otherwise I think I'm good with whatever!
PLOTS/THREADS/THEMES YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: In theory, Goro supports the Free Cities, mostly because it's where his powerbase is, and because he thinks the Singularity, which he sees as the power of Armageddon itself, personified, should be destroyed...or possibly, controlled by a will he trusts. And who does Goro trust more than himself? He's also sponsored Viktor since the Piltoverian scientist arrived and is getting him to work on an agricultural project to revitalize the desert, but the relationship is fraught as Viktor is entirely too aware of Goro's bullshit and that the Shokan is trying to use him. IF ONLY THERE WAS SOME WAY TO SHAKE UP THIS DYNAMIC. He's also a little sore at Jaskier and Alucard/"The Architects" after his attempts to donate to the rebuilding of the Public House were rejected, and Goro never forgets an insult. He also briefly dueled Himeka during the throwdown at the Singularity, but was driven off by the arrival of Estinien (who has since poofed) and considers his kombat with her to be unfinished, which is a state of affairs his warrior's pride cannot abide.

Goro is also using his influence and deteriorating international relations to try and push the Free Cities to be more fearful/opposed to "uncontrolled" magic, aka anything not regulated by magitek/hexcore. He's doing his best to stir up nationalistic sentiments by insinuating that the Free Cities are the true leaders of Abraxas, and they should not be afraid to assert themselves in that role.

In much darker news, Goro has also secretly allied with Fandaniel in his efforts to try and push/manipulate the Free Cities towards war, which is bad because he has no idea who his new ally really is, and thinks he has the Ascian on some sort of leash, which surely won't explode catastrophically in his and everyone else's face later on.

Edelgard

IC INFORMATION


CHARACTER NAME: Edelgard von Hresvelg
CANON: Fire Emblem: Three Houses specifically coming from after the end of the game's Crimson Flower route.
SIGN: The Emperor
FACTION: Thorne

CHARACTER INFORMATION: Edelgard von Hresvelg Did Nothing Wrong is the Emperor of Adrestia in her own world, a nation that has recently significantly expanded itself after the conclusion of a five year long war. Dedicating to reforming her homeland's system of nobility into a meritocratic system where anyone is capable of advancing based on their own merits, she led a revolution against Fódlan's chief religious institution that served as the tentpole holding that system up. Edelgard was able to accomplish this goal and struck down the hot bisexual dragon pope draconic false saint that led the Church the help of her wife VERY GOOD FRIEND cousin, they're just cousins former teacher and High General Byleth Eisner. Naturally, being dragged to Thorne when she was just getting down to rebuilding her entire country's social order was far from ideal, especially once Thorne started setting off major alarms for her based on just how similar she finds the place to pre-unified Fódlan, and she's not afraid to take matters into her own hands.
CR YOU WANT: I've been a little slow with Edelgard since apping her, and I want to change that. I want to get her more involved in Thornean politics, ideally by finding a route into the good graces of its king, Galdwin III, where she can potentially become his advisor/advocate. Edelgard does not trust Thorne one bit and wants to keep it too mired in politics/other bullshit to keep it from advancing its agenda and any plans it might have by secretly working against it from the inside. If you're a power player in Thorne, Edelgard might be an ally or an obstacle to be overcome, depending on your loyalties.

She also likes to seek out different viewpoints and ways of thinking from her own and try to understand them, to see if there's anything useful she might incorporate into her own views/thoughts. On some issues she's immovable, but otherwise quite open to new ideas so long as they're useful and not mired in useless tradition/"the way we've always done it".

I'm also working towards Edelgard re-establishing an old identity she had from before the war that will allow her a bit more free reign in acting against Thorne, and Byleth is going along for the ride too. Basically, Edelgard's a retired supervillain but hopefully she'll be dusting that off soon enough.

Beyond that, contacts in both Solvunn and the Free Cities who want to keep conflict from breaking out or useful street-level contacts are welcome. Edelgard's worse impulses have been tempered thanks to Byleth's influence, but she did still start a five year long war back home, and isn't afraid to take drastic action if she judges that no one else will. Sometimes, someone has to be the bad guy (or at least be seen as the bad guy) to get real change going.
CR YOU DON'T WANT: Romance is definitely off the table, but other than that I'm willing to play with whatever.
PLOTS/THREADS/THEMES YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I thiiiiiink I kind of already answered this, so instead I'll just say that Edelgard's backstory and a lot of where her motivations come from stems from a very traumatic childhood that has cw warnings for abuse, imprisonment, medical experimentation, and death. Please lt me know if you'd like to avoid any of that coming up, or if you'd like to avoid Three Houses spoilers as much as possible. The game is about three years old or so now, but we do have Three Hopes coming in a few months, so interest might be revitalized.
