OOC INTRO & CR MEME #12

OOC Intro and CR Meme

Welcome to our OOC intro and CR meme. We encourage you all to get out there, plot, and introduce yourself!

There is no formal introduction log for characters joining the game. Players are free to introduce their characters however they like.

◎ For April, the market in Oleuni Square is CLOSED. In May, Nocwich will return to its usual schedule of opening every first weekend of each month. Characters can get some cross-faction CR here! Beyond those 3 days (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) and outside of game events, characters from opposing nations will only be able to see each other in the Horizon.

◎ We will have Quests again in May and Plot Engagement will open up April 17th. We ask that new characters wait 1 month before requesting a Plot Engagement.

◎ The OOC Plotting is scheduled for the 14th of this month, while the IC Event Log is scheduled for the 16th. This month's event will be a Mini-Event consisting of a gala and feast-style mingle in each of the factions.

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 pretty mad about it, 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. You can read more about her on her application here!

CR YOU WANT:

✷ 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
✷ new solvunn people come over here.

CR YOU DON'T WANT:
I want everything lay it on me

PLOTS/THREADS/THEMES YOU'RE INTERESTED IN:

✷ TBD on this but I think she will be (slightly unwillingly) nominated to the Conclave. If people vote for her, she’ll begrudgingly accept. Maybe she can chat with other reps, you know, and be less of a disaster
✷ 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. She's so mad about everything that just happened in the Pit. Post Pit-times she's mostly slinking off to her woods fort but happy to play out any event fallout from the last 2 months!
✷ Investigating??? Old gods??? Probably she’s going to want to find the AI behind the curtain, because there is always one.
✷ 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!
✷ boot camp. if you need to know how to shoot a bow or survive in the woods or eat squirrels she is your girl and I want her to teach all of the solvunn children how to skin a deer.

ANYTHING ELSE?:

it was her birthday on April 4 everyone wish her happy birthday

[earthborn]

aries gingers unite, shep's birthday is april 11 lmao

[lightkeeping]

omg perfect. too bad neither of them celebrate their birthday probably

[earthborn]

Shepard definitely does not, but unfortunately she has a boyfriend who might Make A Thing Of It if no one stops him. Might be funny, might be nothing.

[familysucks]

Signing on for the mind realm robot dinosaur hunt PLEASE. Also maybe some bow practice, Michael's area is all hand to hand combat.

[lightkeeping]

oh yeah we're gonna do it. she's also totally down to teach him whatever he likes, and if he's looking for a sparring partner??? maybe??? they can throw down

[familysucks]

oooh yes to that too! horizon is good but I think Michael's ridiculous durability would make in-person sparring especially hilarious.

[carmesi]

can wanda visit her fort in the woods and be amazed at how it has evolved

[lightkeeping]

oh yeah she's got a whole homestead out there by now

[carmesi]

wanda will bring her some pie/bread that she was forced to bake with michael. homestead warming and all that... and congrats on being a representative LOL

[assembles]

it doesn't really need to be anything immediate, but steve has a lot of trust/respect for aloy after the pit and it'd be fun for both of them to get to know each other a bit better at some point!

[lightkeeping]

PIT BUDDIES....I want to show steve the robot dinos

[assembles]

OH MAN, he'll be pretty interested. he's seen a lot of weird stuff including aliens and robots but not really... robot dinos before? squints.
