IC INFORMATION

CHARACTER NAME: Cole Cassidy
CANON: Overwatch
SIGN: The Hanged Man
FACTION: Free Cities

CHARACTER INFORMATION: He's a cowboy with a cybernetic arm that does bounty hunting and vigilante stuff. He started out a co-founder of a gang that stole and sold weapons on the black market, but was recruited for Overwatch (a UN peacekeeping org) when he was caught at the ripe old age of 17. In Overwatch he was involved in their secret black ops division Blackwatch so he did shady operative work around the world. Then people started turning against Overwatch, the whole thing was shut down, and he did his vigilante thing solo. Recently, various chaos around the world has caused some former Overwatch members to get the band back together and he was encouraged to lead them.

CR YOU WANT: I'm up for most things:
— Fellow people interested in snooping around for info on this place's secrets.
— People he can protect.
— People he can joke around with. He's been flying solo for awhile and had just started recruiting new members so he'll want to keep on making connections.
— Anything else, just ask and I'll tell you if I'm into it or not.

CR YOU DON'T WANT: Not a fan of negative CR from some past experiences.

PLOTS/THREADS/THEMES YOU'RE INTERESTED IN:
— Exploration
— Learning new things as they come instead of just being told everything
— Gaining a solid network of friends and allies

IC INFORMATION

CHARACTER NAME: Viktor
CANON: Arcane
SIGN: Death
FACTION: Free Cities

CHARACTER INFORMATION:
Viktor is a scientist-slash-genius engineer-slash-BIG NERD. He's spent the last 6-7 years developing magitech with his research partner, which has not necessarily played out as he would have hoped, with much of his work being co-opted by rich people who are only interested in doing rich people things. He comes off as a fussy academic but is actually an agent of chaos who loves to break rules and do weird science and ponder orbs. Despite his general penchant for putting himself in danger by screwing around with unknown forces he does not fully understand and can't control, he is an idealistic, highly principled individual who believes that the purpose of scientific advancement is to improve lives. He’s soft-spoken but quietly ambitious, intellectually curious, and kind of an obsessive workaholic who is increasingly preoccupied with his own legacy. He's pretty sure becoming a wizard will fix all of his problems.

I have an info and permissions post here and his app is here for further reading. Also a general heads up that Viktor is terminally ill—I content warn accordingly when relevant, but he basically has Fantasy Consumption and the desire to Not Die is a large part of his character motivation at his current canon point. I have an opt out if you’d like me to avoid mentioning this in tags or you would rather not interact with him at all. Comments are screened!

CR YOU WANT:

✷ Science types, baybe. He hangs around the Cadens academies and likes to be in tune with the general scientific goings-on of the city. If you’re an engineer or a mechanic or another scientifically-inclined individual he would like to connect and swap notes! Also, you know, people to do weird magitech experiments with?? Technologically-inclined people to mentor??? He has, like, an undisclosed number of degrees and likes to talk about math and physics and stuff.
✷ BUSINESS RELATIONSHIPS. He wants to connect with people who can do things that he cannot, like go out on dangerous adventures and acquire exciting resources and bring him cool things. IN RETURN: He can fix your shit. He can make you stuff, provided it's not guns!
✷ idk. friends. People to get him out of his comfort zone, which is working until 4am and then falling asleep at his desk. You’ve all been very nice about dancing around the fact that he looks like garbage; he needs someone who will tell him to go to bed.
✷ Possibly he needs a medical intervention. Or a magical one. He is begrudgingly coming around to the fact that he probably needs to be seeing a real doctor about his condition; if that’s you let’s talk. He needs to know about modern medicine. please.
✷ Also totally cool with keeping TDM threads canon.

CR YOU DON'T WANT:
I’m all good let’s get dangerous

PLOTS/THREADS/THEMES YOU'RE INTERESTED IN:

✷ Viktor is CURRENTLY INDISPOSED until around event announcement time, probably. He’s in Aqulia, and traveling back from Aquila. Don’t ask him how that happened. Messages will be sent shortly to relevant parties.
✷ More generally, of his work involves faking magic via technological methods so he’s very jazzed about the real thing. His fancy Horizon power is identify, which means he can determine the magical properties of something by touching it. He can do this. For you!!! Beyond that he is testing his fancy little magic conduit in his Horizon (so that he can build a new one in the real world) if you want to stop by and say hi and ask him what the hell he’s doing.
✷ Before arriving here Viktor was about to, uh, do some illegal little human experimentation (on himself) with the aforementioned little magic conduit he built. He is trying to do this or similar with whatever he can get his hands on around here, and as an added bonus can enhance his own magic with BLOOD, so, if that sounds like a weird hook I can offer that.
✷ Hoping to kick “Operation: Viktor Stays Alive” into gear very shortly, pending some mod feedback so. Stay tuned. Watch this space.
✷ I have a sort of multi-purpose May/June open log here if you want to hit me up and get started on some CR!

IC INFORMATION

CHARACTER NAME: Aloy
CANON: Horizon (Zero Dawn/Forbidden West)
SIGN: The Hermit
FACTION: Solvunn

CHARACTER INFORMATION:
Aloy hails from a post-apocalyptic version of Earth that was ended by a robot apocalypse and reconstituted via an extremely complex AI-governed terraforming system. This system is currently not in good shape! But it’s much better than it was, thanks to Aloy’s endeavors, though the aforementioned system still churns out a bunch of robot dinosaurs that she needs to kill, a lot. As a result she’s an extremely capable machine hunter slash RPG protagonist slash problem solver who was raised an outcast but has since saved the world like three entire times, and will have to do it one more.

Or she WOULD if she wasn’t HERE. Generally speaking, she’s a determinator with poor social skills but has recently come around to the fact that it’s nice to have a team, and friends, and people she can count on. All of that’s GONE NOW and she’s going to be pretty mad about it for a little while, but she’s a good person at her core, and cares very deeply about helping people and not making things worse.

Also she’s a clone and her mom is a computer. It’s complicated. I am working on game paperwork and a proper info post, etc., but you can read more about her on her application here!

CR YOU WANT:

✷ Solvunn buddies where are you
✷ Fellow hunters/combatants/people who want to go out and kill monsters! She’s used to taking down giant robots with nothing but a bow and arrow/sling/primitive firearms so she’s highly skilled in that department and will gravitate towards people who can hold their own in a fight.
✷ Friends??? People she can warm up to and hang out with even if she will probably be a big jerk to you at first and tell you that god isn’t real.
✷ Aloy is used to working with tech far beyond that of her contemporaries, so she would love to have some people to commiserate with in that department. The story of her version of Earth is a doozy, so I would also love to have her work up to, you know, telling people about it.
✷ HORIZON FRIENDS AND HUNTER’S CLUB WHO WANTS TO FIGHT A ROBOT DINOSAUR IN THE MIND REALM
✷ Also very cool with keeping TDM threads canon

CR YOU DON'T WANT:
nada

PLOTS/THREADS/THEMES YOU'RE INTERESTED IN:

✷ Really interested in leaning into the whole “the Summoned are being revered” in Solvunn because she knows a thing or two about that. She’s sick of it! That said, in true RPG protagonist form she cannot refuse a side quest. Hey help her find all these goats
✷ She hates cults. If she gets culty vibes from Solvunn she is gonna be so mad
✷ Investigating??? Old gods??? Probably she’s going to want to find the AI behind the curtain (someone tell her that there are no AI here).
✷ More practically, establishing some kind of monster hunting group (both for the safety of the primary settlement and also so she can travel further beyond it, you know, as like, a bonus). She can make cool things out of monster parts! She wants a bow!!
✷ idk man she’s super new I want anything and everything give it to me.

ABOUT YOU:
Hello I'm nick and I am a lover of horror first and foremost, and bugs. I love bugs. I'm a commission artist who works the night shift which means my hours are odd as heck and unreliable, but if it's helpful at all I'm in EST in NY! My plurk is mostly RP, art, and video games, very rarely about my IRL unless it's important.

IC INFORMATION

CHARACTER NAME: Thane Krios
CANON: Mass Effect
SIGN: Death
FACTION: Solvunn

CHARACTER INFORMATION: Thane is a (former) assassin who spent the remainder of his life with a terminally ill disease, which made him reflect on his life of killing people for money and also his relationship (or lack thereof) with his son. By the time we meet him in the second game, he's all in for going on a suicide mission so that he can do some good to make up for the bad. He also reunites with his son and things are kind of...okay again. Despite his profession, he's a very spiritual and religious man and is way too polite for a guy who could kill a man with a paperclip.

He also has an eidetic memory and sometimes randomly slips into a memory he recalls, reciting it in vivid detail.

AND...he can't make much physical contact with humans on account of his people's skin emitting toxins that give humans rashes. ~~And hallucinations if ingested?? Yeah.~~

CR YOU WANT: Thane is very much still not used to being around people, so friendly types are great. Or like, any type that would befriend him. Please give him friends. Sparring partners also are excellent. He's still recovering from being hospitalized for months and he's gotta keep in shape! Fellow snipers are great too. ALSO Thane is very spiritual and religious so anyone to have those kinds of discussions with would be super fun. Basically just...give me all of it.

CR YOU DON'T WANT: Pffft.

PLOTS/THREADS/THEMES YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I will just repeat what I wrote on the last CR meme since it's still relevant—

So, theme and plot wise, Thane is going to end up being serious about helping to keep the world from dying, while also trying to look deeper into the world and lore and why they're here. He'll focus heavily on helping out in Solvunn as well. He'll be in this weird space where while he died with zero regrets, he'll question if maybe he still has more to give back to the universe. That's going to be his driving force in the game.

ANYTHING ELSE?:

IC INFORMATION

CHARACTER NAME: Jayce Talis
CANON: Arcane
SIGN: The Magician
FACTION: Free Cities

CHARACTER INFORMATION: All his Abraxas info is here. Jayce is the perfect middle ground of the prep/nerd/jock venn diagram. He is the nerdiest person you will ever meet (collects rocks, is obsessed with magic, makes all your techy stuff, loves putting his hand up first in class), also preppy (he stood in the line at the Abraxas version of the DMV for hours so he could let his opinion be known, he dresses like he's about to go to a business meeting), and jock (girl look at that body). He's a golden retriever in human form and is part of the HIGH INT LOW WIS gang. He will make you anything (he gives Summoned percentage off on his blacksmithing) and just be super nice about it.

He recently fell from grace in his world by doing a few murders so he's very sorry about it and trying to go back to being a nerd. He is a former politician as well and very much is staying out of that, thanks, that road led down murder lane. But Jayce is actually a super celebrity in his home of Piltover, his face is on blimps, he was head of the council, it was all fun and games until he had to go and make a giant magic hammer. His best friend and life companion Viktor is dying and it's made him become a white mage in progress here. They share a Horizon because co-dependent is their thing.

CR YOU WANT: Come give him things to make! He is currently getting a name for himself making cool multi-tools that are more pragmatic than anything else. He has a few next projects anyone can use, he's good at tools and also making swords. He is also always at the university and learning medicine. So if you're a medical person, healer, or academic, come at him, or if you want something sharp, he is a very pretty option to buy from! But seriously Jayce is sweet but he is a lot so he loves meeting new people but he's high energy.

CR YOU DON'T WANT: I can't think of any!

PLOTS/THREADS/THEMES YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: If anything compels you about above, I'm into it!

IC INFORMATION

CHARACTER NAME: ~~Gerry~~ Geralt of Rivia
CANON: The Witcher (Netflix)
SIGN: The Hanged Man
FACTION: Free Cities

CHARACTER INFORMATION: Geralt is gruff and rough around the edges, and soft on the inside. He's surprisingly easy to get along with if you're able to overlook his brusque nature, as long as you're not the type to play games and or try to bullshit him. Harder to get to know him well past the surface, though. Very much a Dad. Will encourage you to learn how to stab things and take care of yourself. He's pretty good at killing monsters, handy with a blade, and prefers his solitude but also likes the company of people he's comfortable with. Can be solicited with free drinks or food. Will kill for you as a love language. More info.

CR YOU WANT:
+ Cheerful and persistent types to force him into friendship or anyone patient enough to get him to open up
+ People who will bully him or give him shit for being a grouch OR people he can (affectionately) bully in return because they have intense "I'm a little shit and I know it" vibes
+ Actual monsters he can befriend and fellow outcasts, people he can play big brother to or dad at
+ Characters with similarly orphaned/fucked up childhood backstories, especially those exposed to/committed violence at an early age or on the other hand, characters who have a wildly different upbringing than him
+ Other monster hunters, especially those with the rough and tumble vibe who'll remind him of his fellow Witcher brothers back home. He's already kind of adopted a couple and will continue to collect more.
+ Negative CR is fine, too! Geralt doesn't go out of his way to upset people, but he tends not to mince his words and if you hit the wrong buttons, he'll let you know quickly you're trying his patience. Also am 100% fine with people who'll be wary of him or don't like his, you know. Habit of slicing people open as an answer to certain problems.

CR YOU DON'T WANT:
+ Traditional ship partner/romance things. It's not gonna happen, his love life is too complicated and he's not the type.
+ Negative CR that becomes a genuine threat to people he cares about. I don't mind it if we talk it out and have a solid resolution to move towards, but otherwise anything that endangers the people he considers his family, he won't back down until you're dead or he is.
+ Negative CR that's just stirring the pot or antagonizing him. I also don't mind this, per se, but Geralt is simply not the type to take the bait and he'll just walk away from this sort of attitude so it's unlikely things will go anywhere if that's the only basis for their interactions.

PLOTS/THREADS/THEMES YOU'RE INTERESTED IN:
+ Investigating the true nature of the Singularity, and exactly what it is possible to use it for, as well as how much the factions know about its potential. He's doing this through a couple of people in Thorne. At the moment he believes the Singularity's immense power is inadvertently serving to protect Ciri from the Wild Hunt, and as such—among other reasons—is against people fucking with it.

+ Has real Single Dad, Newly Divorced vibes so maybe there's something there, if you, too, have an adopted child or two and a complicated love life.

+ Geralt hunts often out in the desert, so if you want your character to be rescued and/or get in the way, let me know, I'm always open to his day getting disrupted. He's investigating a weird cave full of skeletal remains this month, and we'll see where that goes!

+ He's made the decision that he will remain in Abraxas for various personal reasons (a lot to do with Ciri), so his investment in this world and the people in it runs a lot deeper. If your character is also the sort that's starting to settle down/no longer attempt to go home, I'd love to have that come up since he only knows a very small handful for whom this is true.

+ Geralt was peripherally involved with Dean Winchester for getting a hunter hangout spot going in the Horizon, which is currently the Roadhouse (Dean's domain.) You can find Geralt there from time to time, and if you can prove your mettle and/or he vibes with you, he'll talk shop, throw some knives with you, and show you a few monsters and such.

+ He has recently been introduced to a motorcycle so if you want to see a medieval fantasy man learning how to ride etc. That is also an option. Please continue to show him modern things, he's already learned quite a bit.

IC INFORMATION

CHARACTER NAME: Claude von Riegan
CANON: Fire Emblem: Three Houses
SIGN: The Wheel of Fortune
FACTION: Free Cities

CHARACTER INFORMATION:
Claude is a 24 year old former duke who successfully led his second home, a nation called the Leicester Alliance on a continent called Fodlan, to win a war before getting ready to leave to tackle some Other Life Goals. He comes from the Verdant Wind route of FE3H where he was the lone leader to survive. Who he actually is is also not what he generally presents it to be: he's actually from a neighboring country and a member of their royal family. To condense a lot of backstory, he moved to Fodlan to become his grandfather's heir and planned to use that position to prove himself and to work on opening borders and changing minds. The latter is basically his main goal in life since he believes pretty firmly in everyone working together, righting any wrongs, and anything that falls in between.

Thanks to things he lived through, Claude also learned to keep literally everyone at arm's length and never let anyone close or to ever trust them, and uses friendliness both as a shield and a way to get what he wants which is almost always information. Being overly casual and irreverent is his way of making himself not be taken seriously so no one looks at what he might be up to in the background too closely. Despite all this, he does genuinely care about people individually and as a whole, and anyone he's even remotely fond of can count on his loyalty to them in whatever way they need at any time. It takes him a while to let his guard down and now it's time to start over!

CR YOU WANT:
Where to start!!

▶ Would you like someone to annoy your generally closed-off character into friendship? Hi hello, here's Claude to do that. He might not like talking about himself beyond surface detail, but he loves listening to someone else do it. Yes, he's totally doing it to learn what makes someone do the things they do or what they think/what's important to them/etc, but it still counts, right? He's lonely but good at hiding it so he needs to make some friends even if it takes a while to Become Friends.
▶ Sort of along the same lines, Claude could really use a mentor/someone to lean on. In his timeline this was his former professor so he's gonna be lost without them around. If your character would be the surrogate parent type then he could definitely use their help. Found family is something he'll be missing terribly from home and I'd also love to force Claude to do some more character growth through it too. Also, if your character is younger and needs the same thing, he'll happily be a surrogate big brother to them!
▶ Claude isn't shy and likes to talk. If you cross his path, he will talk to and/or at you. This is sort of tied to the point below but I'm gonna put it here too: he loves hearing about things outside of his world/experiences so, what's life like where you're from? Up for comparing physical or emotional scars? Wanna do some bonding over depressing backstories once you're closer? Yes please.
▶ He's pretty insatiable when it comes to learning things he knows nothing about, so even if whatever's going on is over his head he'd like to be right there as a sponge absorbing it or suggesting things that don't help at all but might be a cool experiment. I'm thinking right now this applies most to any kind of technology since he comes from what's basically medieval fantasy, so seeing more modern anything is gonna BLOW HIS MIND.
▶ Feel free to use these as a starting point for something else - I'm happy to build on them in greater detail, plot and/or hand-wave to get the basics down and start further in past the usual intro stage, combine a few, or whatever works!

CR YOU DON'T WANT:
At this point, nothing tbh. I want it all, or at least for Claude to experience it all, so bring it on!

PLOTS/THREADS/THEMES YOU'RE INTERESTED IN:
Claude is big into researching everything he can get his hands on (or overhear, observe, etc.) so teaming up with others or working on projects where he can be of use would be excellent. Fodlan was full of politics and maneuvering or straight up manipulating them so he won't bat an eye at everything going on and will have some Thoughts. He's a talented archer and fairly savvy with swords and axes, so any kind of guard missions, running errands for someone, hunting, quests, etc. where he could help (or "help" because I'm all for him getting in over his head, causing more problems than helping, and so on) would be great. He also knows how to craft a variety of poisons and their antidotes and will have to relearn that here, so he'd be happy to shadow anyone who works with/knows plants. Or if he poisons himself through that learning process, because he probably will, someone to cure him would be top notch.

CHARACTER NAME: Alucard
CANON: Castlevania
SIGN: The Hierophant
FACTION: Free Cities

CHARACTER INFORMATION: Sad dhampir does a patricide due to father's attempt to take his grief out on all of 1400s Wallachia. Then he nearly gets murdered. Since being imprisoned by Thorne, Alucard has found a niche for himself in the Free Cities doing historic preservation - first on a graveyard, and currently on Old Public Hall. He's working on trust issues too
CR YOU WANT: Challenges to how he carries and deals with his anger, deepening what friendships he has, more explicitly Not Human friends who occupy human spaces to discuss the challenges that it entails
CR YOU DON'T WANT: Antagonism right off the bat as that's not something I'm interested in playing at the moment
PLOTS/THREADS/THEMES YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Continuing to work on Old Public Hall means he'll always have open ways for folks to talk to him. Otherwise

Hopefully going exploring once the map opens up to new areas. (Nocwich has his attention)

Desert exploration

Fun magic you can use for building preservation!

Weird blood stuff. For various reasons. That absolutely don't involve helping Viktor. Or just trying to see what happens with blood from other worlds.

He's still feeling pretty cruddy, so he'll be growing a depression beard this month. It'll mostly be peach fuzz. We can't all have Dracula's magnificent facial hair.

He's slowly working on relationship building with Sypha again, please help us root for this disaster to kiss her more than once in game

He has the guns. IDK, whatever you like. Note: Jesper is often in the Horizon when he has free time and he wanders aimlessly so if you want him to pop by your Horizon, lmk!

CHARACTER NAME: matt murdock
CANON: marvel television and now mcu
SIGN: tower
FACTION: free cities

CHARACTER INFORMATION: matt's a blind lawyer who moonlights as the vigilante, daredevil! because of his blindness, his other senses have been enhanced so sometimes it's hard to even tell that he is blind because of what he can pick up. he can be a butthead and he's very stubborn but deep down, he really does just want to help people even if he doesn't go about it in the best ways and make horrible decisions. he's always getting beaten up because the show liked to have charlie cox take his shirt off.
CR YOU WANT: right now, anything and everything! matt's gonna be a little closed off at first because this is very much not what he's used to but he'll definitely want to help so he'll want to get involved even if it's on his own terms (at first). people that might know him (even tangentially), fighty people since that's definitely his thing, other vigilantes (even if he's not one to talk about that just yet), and really again, just everything.
CR YOU DON'T WANT: no, it's all good for right now.
PLOTS/THREADS/THEMES YOU'RE INTERESTED IN:

at first, it's just going to be getting settled and figuring this place out. he's very much used to one place and protected it with his life so he'll be shake by this.

then, he's going to want to dig into things that he might be able to do. he's an educated lawyer so helping those that need a voice and can't stand up for themselves/fear reprisal/that kind of thing is something he'd wanna do.

HELLO welcome! I am Dee, I play Jesper Fahey here from Grishaverse and Jayce Talis from Arcane

hextechhead. Jesper is a former gunslinger in a gang and has done some shady stuff and generally is a trouble maker. A very fun and light-hearted one, all things considered. He actually has a pair of guns on him which took him months, if Cole would notice and be curious how he got them! He knows a lot of stuff and has a lot of friends so is a good point person.

Jayce is a very warm and friendly person himself and he is a blacksmith who makes a lot of stuff around here. He isn't currently willing to make guns but he knows people who do. He can make you a lot of other stuff though! He'd be DELIGHTED to look at the arm, how cool. He's a tech genius. ANYWAY WELCOME

ABOUT YOU: Hello! I come from Brighton in the UK, currently live in rural Nova Scotia, and am a self-employed ceramicist/studio owner/operator. Please feel free to add me if you like memes, popcorning over IC drama, or if you want to see my pottery, parrots, and occasionally very stupid fanart of our characters...

IC INFORMATION

CHARACTER NAME: Kylo Ren
CANON: Star Wars (pulled from between episodes VIII and IX)
SIGN: The Tower
FACTION: Thorne

CHARACTER INFORMATION:
Angsty heir apparent to the Skywalker legacy who'd much rather be cool and evil like his grampa Vader, despite the fact he's not actually all that great at casual sadism (not that it stops him from trying). You can read about what he smells like (yes!) on his info page here, and tell me what kinda stuff he can pick up about your character with his fancy psychic abilities here.

CR YOU WANT:

Kylo's looking to find allies and strengthen his position in Thorne by making himself indispensable, and beyond his creepy vibes he actually has a fair amount to offer. If you want someone to spar with in the courtyard, need someone to help you set up in the Horizon or get comfortable with your new magic powers, Kylo is your ominous oversized man who's been here since the very first set of summonings.

As for me, I'll happily receive any and all CR of course but my heart beats fastest for fractious frenemies!
I love forced/unexpected/unwelcome team-ups, and honestly if anyone feels like giving me the lost in the wilderness/behind enemy lines with the person I like least CR of my dreams I will be thrilled beyond measure. I also enjoy all flavours of interaction where characters share an end goal but have wildly different ideas about the ethics of the situation, and relationships that develop through the discovery of unexpected commonalities.

While he's quite comfortable in his relationship, you may flirt with Kylo! It will be exceptionally awkward, which is great— Kylo's only just worked out that some people actually find him pretty attractive when he isn't busy committing various war crimes, and while he's no longer the canonical permavirgin he was on arrival in Abraxas he's still exceptionally weak to genuine compliments and has no idea how to handle attention of a positive nature. Destroy him.

CR YOU DON'T WANT:
I can't think of much I actively don't want, and even the tropes and setups I don't tend to go for can be lots of fun with the right set-up! I do struggle with small-talky type threads and vastly prefer it if there's a Reason for our characters to be interacting, but otherwise? Please just throw it at me.

PLOTS/THREADS/THEMES YOU'RE INTERESTED IN:

Investigation:: What are Cadens and Solvunn planning on doing with their Summoned? What can be done to fortify and strengthen the Singularity? Who are Oliver Abbot and Elizabeth Francis and what are their motivations? While he remains aligned with Thorne, Kylo's willing to work with like-minded characters from any faction to unpick these mysteries and more— albeit in a shadowy, ominously illuminati-like fashion rather than some kind of arms around the world rally.
Politik:: Kylo's moving up in the world, with his actions so far having gained him a position of relative authority in Thorne— namely, a task force of four Thornean mages under his command, as well as a title (The Venerable Kylo Ren, thank you!) earned with his actions during the Dimming event. I'd love to play with other characters in Thorne pushing for position and power, as well as with anyone looking for a big strong to hide behind or hitch their proverbial wagon to. Kylo is currently working most closely with Jolene, Ambrose's highest ranking apprentice (who is secretly more loyal to the Duchess of Hayle, Ambrose's sister), and they've learned that the Queen of Thorne herself was behind some pretty sketchy stuff. If your character is into political intrigue, Kylo may be a good way to get teeth into that whole scene.
Study and experiments:: Kylo's been working with Thornean natives to test the feasibility of bridging and blending Abraxan magic with the skills and abilities the Summoned brought with them from their home worlds, mostly to empower himself. He is surprisingly willing to help others learn magic, and will share the use of a magically protected room in Castle Thorne for the purpose. He's also open to introducing characters to the Horizon for the first time: he's very comfortable with meditation and metaphysical nonsense and will gladly theorise with fellow nerds for days given the slightest opportunity.

ANYTHING ELSE?:

gasp

I would like them to get close enough so that Geralt will be able to tell him about the big onyx-like magic rocks that apparently exist on every world (in his canon) and possibly ask him a little about this.

Also if Jayce ever wants to bring his hammer into the desert.

don't worry jayce viktor will be home soon

what a totally cool and normal thing to chant

Absolutely normal, not weird or suspect or concerning at all

Hello! He would totally want the insider info about where to find guns here! Your characters both sound like people Cassidy would want to meet so I will def look for opportunities. Thanks for the welcome!
