OOC INTRO & CR MEME #18

[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.

Since the upcoming event is fairly large, we've provided an EVENT BRAINSTORM section for new arrivals to receive offers from existing players, who can invite them into their AU histories and help establish potential connections.

Only new characters may fill out the form for this section, but anyone can reply with suggestions. We encourage current players to reply with ways new characters can be incorporated into the event!

To participate in the standard CR meme, fill out the form below and post it as a comment:

Important Notices

This month contains some important in-game occurrences. Be sure to review the details below!

IC Items

◎ Beginning APRIL 6, shortly after the new arrivals, the storm worsens. Lightning now strikes the ground, and heavy rains have led to flooding - including in the normally dry and arid Free Cities. Conditions have grown from troublesome to outright dangerous. While the major cities are better protected, the effects can still be felt. There will be a mounting death toll (moderate), and water damage to homes and businesses.

◎ Portals between cities are CLOSED in every territory. Because of the instabilities, portal travel has been shut down. Characters can still travel via horse or wagon, but authorities suggest limiting any long journeys due to dangerous weather conditions.

◎ Nocwich is CLOSED this month. Characters from opposing territories will only be able to see each other in the Horizon, which continue to undergo some disturbances.

OOC Items

◎ The upcoming event requires players to sign up for an assignment. Please read this post for more details. New players are encouraged to participate! Signing up only requires putting down your character's name.

◎ We recognize the next event has a lot of elements to consider, especially for new players. We encourage you to contact us if you're feeling a little lost! The goal for our events is to let players be as creative as possible. If you have an idea but are unsure of how to implement it or what the limits are, we're happy to guide you.

A Look Ahead

The OOC Plotting is scheduled for the 12th of this month, while the IC Event Log is scheduled for the 17th. The event will involve a glimpse into the future and will go until May 10.

We have some climatic plots planned into summer due to the domino effect that began with Event #17. However, to make sure characters (and players) have some room to breathe, May will be a quiet month with pieces moving in the background before things pick up once more in June.

OOC INFORMATION

---

NAME: Nri
CONTACT: Journal PM, Nennui, or find me on the game server and hit my Discord DMs.
ABOUT YOU: I am as a little wet frog peering at you from a pond. My plurk is mostly RP, fandom, and gaming (primarily Warframe and Minecraft these days) with the occasional gripe about work or the weather. I also like miniatures! Add me so we can do each other's plurk memes.

IC INFORMATION

---

CHARACTER NAME: Michael
CANON: Supernatural
SIGN: The Emperor
TERRITORY: Solvunn

CHARACTER INFORMATION: Eldest of the Supernatural archangels. Created by his father, God, to fight and serve His will and later killed by the very same. The rest of the family isn't much better and neither is Michael's relationship to them. There's a failed Apocalypse in there somewhere, too.

Michael retains the ego and arrogance typical of his canon's archangels, but his time in Hell and unique friendship with his former vessel Adam have mellowed him out. He has an interest in humanity and a certain amount of respect for them as individuals these days. He's still got a quick temper, but it's hard to set him off unless you know exactly which nerves to grind your heel into. Most of the time he's a stone-faced stick in the mud, but one that's usually polite and willing to work. He has a dry sense of humor that only shows itself when there are no witnesses.

CR YOU WANT: Friends, adoptive family, reluctant allies, debate partners, characters with complicated or volatile family situations to commiserate with, human/inhuman/not-entirely-human types to swap perspectives with, bring me what you got.
CR YOU DON'T WANT: Not keen on negative CR for the sake of negative CR. It's gotta be complex or have room to grow.
PLOTS/THREADS/THEMES YOU'RE INTERESTED IN:
— Michael has joined Aloy's Solvunn hired goon squad seeker group/hunting party, so if you'd like to kill monsters together or just use a patrol as an excuse for interacting hit me up.
— Gabriel's departure has left him with full ownership of a bed and breakfast in the Tertiary Settlement that's not quite ready to open, given the recent weather conditions. Nonetheless! I would love to plan some stays for the future, when it's accepting guests.
— Deepening CR ties in Solvunn in general, and building routines with other Summoned in the commune.
— He could use more contacts in the other territories, too!
— Knowledge/skill/hobby exchanges.
— I have him signed up for the upcoming event; you can find info on his future AU self here. Happy to use unexpected future connections for post-event CR building.
— That Thing you secretly want to do that Michael would be perfect for that I forgot to list here.

ANYTHING ELSE?:

[beautifullies]

Spider plants.

[familysucks]

yes. definitely something they get up to in their first hundred years or so, and that are then just roaming the forest 800 years down the line. possibly they grow to improbable size...

(but also a thing we must do post-event, too.)

[areou]

how would u feel about clarisse mistaking michael for and old foe from her canon and having a lot of complicated feelings about it bc they look unnervingly similar 👀 (she's still got some unresolved anger/resentment/bitterness to work out despite luke sacrificing himself and all that)

idk how this would happen with them in diff territories rn but!! it could be fun to play with at some point

[familysucks]

lmaooo. I admit I'm totally canonblind, but I did hear the actor played someone in one of the pjo movies! I'm here for it. it'll probably be obvious quick enough from attitude and vocal tone that he's a different guy but there is still room for complicated feelings about the eerie resemblance.

there's always the horizon? though we could also do something post-event when Nocwich opens again if that ends up being better timing.

[ordinar]

it's been a hot minute and I'd love to throw them together again!

maybe something with the upcoming event? Wilhelm, having few memories of home, will basically think of Lucifer as his dad. so hi uncle.

[familysucks]

yesss it's been ages since they ran into each other, it is Time. Michael's not going to remember who Lucifer is in relation to him during the event, but on the other hand he will probably just let Wilhelm call him uncle if it pleases him. strange kid, seems friendly.

pre- or post-event they've also got Kelson as a common point, tone of that discussion to be seen.

[ordinar]

he had the realization that Michael is to Kelson what Lucifer is to him, so...he guesses you're okay... but god he'd be mortified if he knew to what extent Kelson has told him about their relationship.

[familysucks]

lmao sorry Wilhelm, their discussions are very frank. at least those details are unlikely to come up in conversation...

so how we feeling about Michael saving Wilhelm from a creature or other situation out of his control sometime in the early godhood years, then dropping him off home?

[ordinar]

please never talk to him about his sex life.

ooh yeah, I'm into this lore. bring him as a peace offering to Lucifer haha.

[familysucks]

he may never speak of it, but he knows. he knows.

less peace offering since he won't remember much about Lucifer, more returning a lost item from the lost and found bin. clearly someone forgot to warn Wilhelm about Solvunn's forests.
