OOC INTRO & CR MEME #12

[abraxasmods]

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.

Marlowe | Lenore | Castlevania

[beloyaltome]

OOC INFORMATION

---

NAME: Marlowe
CONTACT: marlovingian | Marlowe#2340
ABOUT YOU: I read constantly, major fandoms are The Untamed (and other Asian dramas, mostly China & Korea), Castlevania, Locked Tomb. Love horror, history, fantasy in general, especially when combined. Eternally trying to write a novel that's better than the last novels I wrote.

IC INFORMATION

---

CHARACTER NAME: Lenore
CANON: Castlevania (Netflix)
SIGN: The Lovers
FACTION: Thorne

CHARACTER INFORMATION: Lenore is a vampire diplomat who believes in negotiation and commerce and wants to build a better world. Her canonpoint is, uh, fairly tragic, so she's dealing with an enormous amount of grief and loss but she's also kind of excited about all the new opportunities and freedom she has here in Abraxas. Castlevania is a great show but it's brutal, basically the worst period of the European dark ages plus vampires and hellbeasts, so Lenore's got layers upon layers of trauma. Though she is genuinely sweet and wants the best for everyone, she has a very wide manipulative streak and leaves herself plenty of room for interpretation in how she fulfills her part of any bargain.
CR YOU WANT: Lenore is still pretty new, having just arrived last round, so she is still settling in and trying to establish some more friends and allies. She's been brought in to Thorne and is very inclined to stay there, at least for the foreseeable future. Since she's a diplomat, she's very interested in making friends and allies in other factions and learning more about those factions towards a general goal of helping to foster peace between the factions.
CR YOU DON'T WANT: I'm always hesitant of negative CR. I'm fine with CR that starts tentative or even hostile but with a goal of working toward a better understanding, but Lenore's will do her best to make nice with anyone she meets.
PLOTS/THREADS/THEMES YOU'RE INTERESTED IN:
Politics between factions - Lenore wants to know big picture stuff but she's also very interested in the personal details, and she'll be asking most new acquaintances why they have chosen whatever faction they're in.
Thorne Intrigue - Lenore is right at home in a fantasy medieval-esque royal court, so she's very interested in scoping out the cliques and lines of power within Thorne, especially the castle, and figuring out how to build her own influence and status.
Magic / History / Research - Lenore's intrigued by the local magic system which is definitely a lot easier of a learning curve than her world has, so she's looking to pick up skills in that. She's also interested in the underlying why of Abraxas, so she's going to be digging in as far as she can to the history and natural philosophy, though her interest is more philosophical (who built this system, what were their motivations) rather than academic (how does it work, what can be done with it).
Fashion - She's dying here without her wardrobe and jewelry, so she's actively on the lookout for a job, money, and picking up levels in the magic that creates and modifies outfits.

ANYTHING ELSE?:
Hobbies include putting pretty men on leashes:

[widows_kiss]

I would definitely love for them to poke at more intrigue things together >.>

[beloyaltome]

Yesssss intrigue friends. I noticed you wanting to do more spying stuff, did you know that lenore can become mist or bats so she's great at spying.

[widows_kiss]

natasha will think that's a very handy trick ;) a little weird, but very handy.

[beloyaltome]

Is there anything in particular we're looking to snoop on?

[magicalarchaeologist]

He'd be happy to teach her magic! :D since they talked about it.

[beloyaltome]

Yesss! She's hyperfixated on learning how to make and modify clothes though, so unless he can help with that she might come back to him later once she's got it down.

[magicalarchaeologist]

No not his thing! But when she wants to do other things he's happy to help. He made that sun ring too, lol.

[ushiri]

THIRD TIME'S A CHARM? They ended up on different teams for event part 2, but I will 100% throw him at her for the conclave/mini event if you're still down? They have a lot of similar investigation interests, and in general he's down to share most of what he's gathered so far about Thorne/Abraxas!

[beloyaltome]

Yes! Let's get chatty. Mini-event meetup sounds like a good plan.

[frontlinetitties]

They need a reunion once Gideon is less out of it. Maybe in the Horizon? Although she'll be back to Nocwich as soon as it's open and she's feeling better!

[beloyaltome]

That sounds nice! Let's do something in the Horizon. Gideon can come check out Lenore's pretty castle and help test the beds.

[frontlinetitties]

Excellent. I have an open post for her this month but could also put up something specifically for Lenore if you prefer!

[theidlemaiden]

it's time for fashion no more bad things ever!!!

on a more serious note maybe we can work towards them hosting a little pop-up shop in Oleuni Square in May? how fast can these girls work askdf

[beloyaltome]

May might be too soon... Lenore's working on learning fabric magic but I don't think she's possibly ready for conjuring the high-fashion gowns she would want to be producing.

[theidlemaiden]

ASdashk you're right sorry I got carried away with time because what is time anymore. More collaboration and planning sessions maybe?

[cryptsleeper]

I can't lie, I want these two to go down the fashion nerds route. Because Lenore should get to play around with men's garment too and lord knows he has his Baroque Era.

[beloyaltome]

Yessssssssss let her dress you kitten fangs

[cryptsleeper]

it isn't quite a leash but it might scratch the same itch????

Re: Marlowe | Lenore | Castlevania

[blackeyedprince]

Hi there!
I play Kell Maresh, Rhy's adopted brother. I'd love him to have CR with Lenore.
Please bully Kell on his nonexistent fashion sense.

[beloyaltome]

hello!
she will bully him into letting her dress him come be a customer for her new fashion empire

[blackeyedprince]

yesssss....
incidentally, Kell is one of the few people with a paying job in Thorne. Not exactly riches of babylon, but he gets by. he might really become her customer at some point.

[carmesi]

can wanda be... her solvunn friend... making connections, an all that! and especially if she's on friendly terms with nat, that's already a vouch for wanda.

[beloyaltome]

yes!! I actually had wanda's cr meme open in a tab to reach out to you. lenore heard this talk about wanda's old god since they were both in the negotiation team, and she is very curious, wants to know more and to help out on team research, so lenore would certainly reach out to establish more of an acquaintance with her

[carmesi]

definitely something that can be arranged! is this something you think would happen on the horizon, or staked out in nocwich next month (we can forward date if needed)?
