Heya! :D What area is Marinette usually patrolling around in? I know the low crime rate probably makes things pretty boring, but Tim is also looking for patrols and friends. Gotta rebuild his hero network. :'D Plus, they've got a similar color scheme.

Fashion design and superheroing might also be interesting to work with if she starts taking suit/uniform commissions. :)

he's back to fighting with Karamatsu again, even though they made up already. HMM so competitive. otherwise, he's training with Ivar to learn better self-defense skills. he's making friends, but could always use more... i'm looking at you LA casts.

● name: Timmy
● contact: captainkink | quixotically#8692 on discord
● threading preferences: I prefer brackets! But I will reply to prose, but my style is brackets only. Sorry!
● threading habits: I am on GMT+8, which means depending on my work/rl schedule, it usually takes me a day to respond. However, I am usually very prompt when I get the time and I’m a fast tagger. I can boomerang easily and I have no problem with getting back tags.
● about you: I live in Singapore and I work in a school! I mostly plurk about rp, comics, games and movies and the occasional moment of “daww those wacky kids”. I’m not a constant plurker and I’m usually pretty quiet otherwise! I swear I read plurks often though even if I don’t reply.

loki (mcu)

[dothelokimotion]

character
● name: Loki
● age: something something old
● occupation: Advisor/Researcher at the Gramarye Institute
● residence: A private apartment with his not-sister Angela
● about: Loki is currently undergoing a personal metamorphosis. He's less inclined to murdery + taking over the world kind of stuff and more finding his niche as a chaotic neutral character. He's also trying to figure out who he wants to be and finally building his self-esteem up as a real boy. It's big! He's still tetchy and more likely to snark you out, but Loki is definitely more approachable, even if he's prone to mischief and teasing.
● what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: Character development and CR building! Loki has come a long way and he has a pretty decent CR base right now, but I want that to keep going so that Loki can icly look back and recognize that he’s capable of forming connections instead of it being a one-off thing.
● what plans you have for this character: I'm thinking of doing a Gramarye mingle for all the people working there to meet up! Also maybe some kind of magical event. Help me out RV-kenobi.
● shipping/smut preferences: Right now, Loki is sweet on 616!Steve Rogers
● what your character wants: Figuring out his place in the world + finally liking himself as a person.

Hullo! Missions would be cool, is Tony looking for anything in particular out there? I was also wondering if there's currently anything happening on the community programs front?

● threading preferences: I tend towards brackets/action and briefer tags, and have no preference between network and in person.
● threading habits: I live in Australia and work 9-5! So I tag in the evenings after work. Ideally I try to tag everything back at least once every 1 or 2 days. I am sometimes around for boomeranging on weekends.

● occupation: Field Researcher at Gramarye Magic Research
● residence: Floor 8 of communal housing
● about: Princess. Descended from a goddess. Key player in an ominous fate. Living embodiment of "Stand back, I'm going to try SCIENCE."

Zelda's a reserved kid who really, really gets enthusiastic about learning new things and doing research into technology and the like. She is very polite and friendly but may also insist you try eating frogs to see what happens. Has a lot of sadness in her life, but doing her best regardless.

● what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: I'm fresh to the game so alllll of it. For Zelda, she will be most into exploring Riverview and learning as much about it as she can. She's also interested in meeting new people! She hasn't met anyone in a... very long time.
● what plans you have for this character: Making friends! Research! Exploring!
● shipping/smut preferences: tbh I don't often think about shipping, I tend to go with the flow. No smut, sorry!

Garshil | Ronan Lynch

[somnioergosum]

player
● name: Garshil
● contact: PM me, subtextequals and I’m on discord but I’d like a head’s up there before being contacted.
● threading preferences: I prefer prose but can do brackets. ICly, Ronan rarely touches his phone so if you want to do a network post in particular, give me a nudge.
● threading habits: I try to tag at least once a day but work hasn’t be great lately so if slow paced threads aren’t your thing, it might be best to wait until later for plotting.
● about you: At least half of the things I say are jokes, less than half of those are good.
character
● name: Ronan Lynch
● age: 19
● occupation: Farmhand at Buttercup Farms
● residence: A house with his boyfriend Adam
● about: He’s a jerk. He has PTSD because that tends to happen when you find your parents’ mutilated bodies. He can bring things back from his dreams, which lead to some nightmare creatures almost killing him recently. He’s very paranoid about people learning about his powers.
He’s also a gay Catholic with codependency problems. His favorite means of showing affection is insulting people and anonymously giving gifts he’s dreamed. He’ll pretend he hasn’t done the latter but he won’t lie about it. He hates liars. He’s quite a judgmental guy.
● what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: Seeing him try and fail to interact with people
● what plans you have for this character: I’m thinking of getting him more magic dream powers because he needs to get over his power related hang ups. He’s currently in a feud with former friend Ivar. I’m just waiting to see where it all takes me.
● shipping/smut preferences: Gay, painfully monogamous, and living with Adam Parrish.
● what your character wants: To not have his leg broken again
● what your character needs: Socializing, working out his feelings, a punching bag, and maybe someone to take away his car keys.
● any open post/ic inbox links: Festival of light including Ronan in a tux speedo.

● threading preferences: Brackets and prose are all good! But I like to keep things within the current month when possible.

● about you: I'm pretty excited to leave a big city behind for the country ngl.

Dany

[jelmazmo]

character
● name: Daenerys Stormborn of the House Targaryen, First of Her Name, the Unburnt, Queen of the Andals and the First Men, Khaleesi of the Great Grass Sea, Breaker of Chains, and Mother of Dragons.
● age: 22
● occupation: Community Ambassador
● residence: Community housing floor #3, apt 2
● about: A Queen who wants to change the world (even this one), Dany was dealt a shitty hand and made the most of it, going from a meek girl to a proud and oftentimes overconfident woman. She's got a nasty temper, but she's not quick to resort to violence unless innocents have been harmed.

● what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: The political scene possibly but also EXPLORATION for reasons I'll detail below.
● what plans you have for this character: Getting her more involved in things and also potentially starting a business. Also to save up ACP to get her her remaining two dragons.
● shipping/smut preferences: Sorry lords and ladies, she's taken.

● what your character wants: TO EXPAND THE PERIMETER (or go beyond it) and acquire some serious political power.
● what your character needs: To chill.

[ragnarsson]

player
● name: Shade
● contact: PM or Light_shade
● threading preferences: I'll do both brackets and prose.
● threading habits: Random and all over the place thanks to an unpredictable work schedule. Some days, I can boomerang for a couple hours. Some days, I can only get to the inbox once a day.
● about you:

character
● name: Ivar "The Boneless" Ragnarsson
● age: 16
● occupation: Perimeter Guard member and medieval weapons tutor
● residence: Marco's home for wayward teens
● about: Teenage Viking warrior prince who is eternally bitter, angry, and snarky over the fact he can't walk. Very clever and very good with weapons. Will likely try to kill you in your sleep. If you make friends with him, he will still try to kill you in your sleep, he just will also be a tiny bit nicer to you. Recently gained the morphing power from the Animorphs world, so you all can never trust any cute animals in the city ever again. Less grumpy now that he has some family in the city. Also, he has a daughter named Winter from a previous relationship. I know kid plots are not everyone's cup of tea, so if you ever want to opt-out, just let me know!

● what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: Always looking for more action threads with him. I love negative CR for him since I feel like he doesn't get enough for being such an abrasive character.
● what plans you have for this character: He's going back through the portal for a canon update either at the end of this month or the beginning of next month and will be gone for about a week Riverview time while around two years pass in his own world. I'll decide the exact canon point after the midseason finale. Regardless of what happens, he'll come back still very angry, bitter, and a lot more cynical over the fact he's now in a civil war with his family. Also missing the priest he made his slave, because isn't that the option everyone picks to do when they capture a hot warrior bishop?
● shipping/smut preferences: He's bisexual and has made more than a few crushes in Riverview. Currently taking things slow with Marco, though they have yet to put a label on anything. Also, his baby mama Letha came back, and he has no idea how to feel about that. He'll still show interest in your character if it's there. Prefer fade to black as opposed to doing any full on smut if things head in that direction.

● what your character wants: To go back through the portal and finish the various wars he's involved in.
● what your character needs: Someone to get him to stop picking fights with people and self-control.

● any open post/ic inbox links: Festival of Light thread and monthly log.

● anything else: So full of salt. I might add the one he's tossing the drink on is his own brother.

[storradr]

for the love of god pls don't tell him about the civil war. PLEASEIVAR. don't kill him on the inside any more than he already is.

[personifications]

player
● name: mars
● contact: mustafar; ask for discord.
● threading preferences: i tend to default to brackets, but it's not a deal-breaker otherwise.
● threading habits: evenings and weekends pst, typically.
● about you: idk i'm a game newb with a ton of fandom interests and a ridiculous over-investment in ancient mediterranean history/mythology. i'm a professional writer with an english/history degree under my belt and like five concurrent novel projects. i am also not remotely cool, whoops.

character
● name: eames / inception
● age: 31
● occupation: actor :)
● residence: community housing, private #404
● about: he's a dream thief without access to the dream machine. meaning: a schoomzy gangster with a gambling/drinking problem. his specialty is imitating people (thus or inspired by the acting ability); he's the kind of guy who reads a room without much trouble, and who would make a wonderful govt. spy if he cared about authority. he likes networking and dogs and has an interesting taste in suits.

● what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: i'm new, i'm honestly up for anything. but i love exploration aspects and relationships (romantic or otherwise); long-term development is my #jam.
● what plans you have for this character: we're still working this out. just getting him somewhat integrated at this point is good for me.
● shipping/smut preferences: i tend to play eames as bi, so m/m and m/f is fine with me with some cr establishment in that direction. he's currently unattached with an awkward/upset ex hanging around, so excessive making out is ♥. smut-wise, i'm fine to play it out as long as we discuss the general of it ahead of time.

● what your character wants: friends, booze, idk sex is "yes"? work contacts, etc., etc.

Kiki | Katsura

[unos]

player
● name: Kiki
● contact: begleiter
● threading preferences: Logs, prose or brackets! I love everything, tho.
● threading habits: I'm on EST and tend to tag in the late afternoon to mid-evening! Backtagging is frequent.
● about you: I have a lot of cats! I work a desk job, but mostly you'll catch me plurking about fictional idols, Fate, Grandblue Fantasy, My Hero Academia, and apparently now CLAMP (thanks for the CCS revival)

character
● name: Katsura Kotarou
● age: Late 20s (if you need a hard number, I headcanon 28)
● occupation: Perimeter Guard (Orientation Support)
● residence: Floor 9, room 1
● about: Katsura is a samurai, war veteran, and anti-government rebel that loves to squish the paws of various animals and can frequently be found in a variety of weird disguises. He can kick a lot of ass when he needs to, but for the most part he's just an idiot. That said, he's personable, calm, and friendly enough most of the time, so he plays easily off a huge variety of different character types.

● what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: Missions and exploration!
● what plans you have for this character: For now, just getting him settled in. He'll also be putting out feelers to figure out what folks in charge are really like and, if necessary, starting his own little anti-government cell here as well... but I don't expect him to find much in terms of corruption.
● shipping/smut preferences: Yes to both, for M/F and M/M! That said, Katsura is not a one-night-stands kind of guy so don't expect much actual smut outside established relationships.

Hmm, anti-government cell, you say?

Heya! I'm Vel with Tim Drake, who is currently technically working for the government as community youth ambassador-- and also may have taken the job to see if it'll get him a backdoor into the systems. :'D That being said, everything's aboveboard as far as he can tell. Does Katsura have a personal reason to be anti-government or is it more of general paranoia?

● occupation: Investigative Reporter
● residence: Shared Housing; Floor 13, Room 5
● about:

● what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: Expanding Alex's horizons, including with magic and other things in her world that would be impossible. Also the exploration and Alex sticking her nose where it doesn't belong.
● what plans you have for this character: Pretty open at the moment!

● threading preferences: i like brackets over prose but i'm willing to do both! i'm trying to strike my balance between long and short... i love both a lot and tend to tl;dr with introspection THERE'S NEVER PRESSURE TO MATCH I'M JUST BAD AT CONCISENESS.
● threading habits: i'm in EST and tend to do my most potent tagging on weekend time! i'll backtag forever and i always accept late tag-ins, as long as it's not something that would have been gamechanging or require retconning other stuff i've already established.

character
● name: finn
● age: 23
● occupation: perimeter guard (no specializations)
● residence: like floor 11 shared housing.
● about: finn was raised to be a soldier for space fascists from very early childhood, an organization he defected from like asap when he got to the real world and saw that they were bad. he's got a strong moral compass, is team-oriented and kind at heart, and has a tendency to get ride-or-die attached to people pretty damn fast. he's also argumentative, high-strung, still working out being a person in general after a lifetime with no name and no individuality, and is in the ongoing process of actively repressing his life traumas. TL;DR: a good person who is insanely bad at relaxing and often a disaster.

● what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: honestly, i'm interested in all aspects with him. i'm always down to put him on some missions where his skills can come in handy, and i've been loving the SOL, CR-building stuff a lot too!
● what plans you have for this character: mostly more CR-building. he'll be part of the paintball war, though! and at some point possibly will get a canon update to the last jedi! nothing with super specific dates attached yet tho, there's wiggle room.
● shipping/smut preferences: i'm not against shipping or smut with finn if development trends that way and someone wants to discuss it or w/e, but it's not something i'm actively seeking out to do for him. it isn't really something he's looking for icly either tbh. he's kind of got a lot of issues he's dealing with, and i can't say that he's generally in a good place for actual relationships atm.

● what your character wants: to personally pick up all the people he cares about and catch grenades for them, to keep people safe, to punch kylo ren in the face, to feel like he deserves any of the nice shit that happens to him, to get the heck back home asap. and to argue all the time forever while ignoring his complex emotions.
● what your character needs: FRIENDS, FOUND FAMILY, AND SUPPORT, AND TO RELAX FOR REAL EVEN JUST ONE TIME IN HIS LIFE?? he needs to acknowledge and/or start to address some of his bigger emotional issues probably tbh. it's just that getting him there icly is a long haul i've committed to.

● threading habits: I try to get to all my tags in 1-2 days. Sometimes it's more quickly if I have some time off in a row. Late night CST usually
● about you: Literature major with a minor in classical history (Greco Roman). Or, that's what I went to school for anyway. Now, I'm a merchandising manager at a bookstore, and when I'm not there, I'm usually flitting between reading something, playing a video game, tagging, and looking at random cute things on the internet. I love horror movies, horror games, MMORPGs (WoW at the moment), urban fantasy, high fantasy (like LOTR), murder mysteries, horror fiction, and things that are cute.

character
● name: Dorian Pavus
● age: 33
● occupation: Magic Researcher at Gramarye Magic Research
● residence: Communal Housing, Floor 10, Bed 3
● about: A flamboyant and arrogant (at least about his looks and magical ability) mage with a heart of gold. He's also charismatic and charming, witty, and open-minded. Oh, and gay. Really gay. He comes across as someone who is never bothered, worried, uncertain, insecure, or troubled by his past and the lack of love his father gave him on account of being gay, and that's just where he wants you.

● what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: Friendships! A healthy romantic relationship! Also exploring, slice of life. You know, just about all of them.
● what plans you have for this character: Currently, Dorian is "talking to someone" in a romantic sense. Other than that, I just want him to make more friends right now.
● shipping/smut preferences: We should talk about things :)

character
● name: Wally West
● age: Early 20's
● occupation: Member of the Search and Rescue unit of the Perimeter Guard

● about:

Wally was the first sidekick of the Flash, appropriately named Kid Flash, who one day got tossed into the time-stream by a crazy techno-wizard from the future. While lost outside of time and reality, he gained some memories of the universe that was (Pre-Flashpoint) before someone manipulated the timeline. Then when he got anchored back to reality after several years, he took up the Flash name alongside his mentor Barry Allen.

● what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: building CR, exploration, and missions
● what plans you have for this character: Nothing concrete at the moment. His best friend just left so he'll be down about that.

● shipping/smut preferences: Wally has only been shown to be romantically interested in women in canon and I tend to stick with that. I think he's more open to something now than he was when he first arrived if anyone actually wants a piece of this mess.

● what your character wants: To explore this place, help while he's here, and find a way home.
● what your character needs: A social life.

● contact: weeyotch or weeyotch#8200 on Discord
● threading preferences: I tend to default to brackets, but I'm flexible
● threading habits: EST and more available in mornings/afternoons; generally slow tagging, if I'm tagging at all, in the evenings. Thanks to constantly having company or traveling or preparing to have company/travel since... sometime in December, my threading is currently very disorganized. I'm kind of hitting tags at semi-random intervals until I get a handle on my inbox. Normally I try to respond promptly??
● about you: I haven't been able to properly tag since sometime in December. But my holiday hiatuses will finally be over with in a few days, SO I'M HOPING TO EASE BACK IN WITH SOME NEW PLOTTING.

Chase Collins

[bastardofipswich]

character
● name: Chase Collins
● age: 18
● occupation: Research assistant at the magic place, plus high school student.
● residence: Communal, flooor.... 2?
● about: Maladjusted teen witch, occasionally murderous, addicted to magic, pretty obnoxious, kind of trying to sort of make friends or something.

● what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: More slice of life and long-term character growth stuff, but he can also get in on action things, too.
● what plans you have for this character: Mostly winging it. I think the next thing he's going to do is try to seek out other types of magic that he can pick up/master. Just to add to his repertoire. (YES I'M JUST COPYING AND PASTING FROM THE LAST CR MEME. I haven't been able to move forward with anything due to the holidays, so)
● shipping/smut preferences: Chase is gay, so dudes who are 18 +/- 2 years are a safe bet. He's got it bad for Caleb Danvers, though, so any shipping between Chase and non-Calebs would be quick flings or casual dating at most.

● what your character wants: MORE POWER. Which is to say more magical power. He doesn't care about social/political power. Also he wants to establish some kind of life here, since he's got nothing back home.
● what your character needs: Friends/found family! And to overcome his addiction to magic. And to learn how to be a functional human. Also guidance/mentorship, probably. His life's really been lacking in positive role models.

Lauren Strucker - Mutant Teenager with Attitude

[igotusout]

character
● name: Lauren Strucker
● age: 17
● occupation: Peremiter Guard: Search and Rescue
● residence: She has a Single on Floor 4.
● about: Lauren is a mutant with the power to condense matter into shields. She's also a teenager with a lot of guilt, paranoia, and issues because her Earth has a crapton of issues and they are not okay. She has a chip on her shoulder about humans and will probably be far more trusting of non-human folks in town because of it. She also needs hugs, and parental supervision, and hugs.

Maybe a little paranoid and might need friends who can make her less paranoid, or friends that make her more paranoid, either or.

● what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: All of them, not picky, adventuring a bit more than slice of life for her though.
● what plans you have for this character: None, planning is for chumps.
● shipping/smut preferences: No smut because age, shipping wise she'll be cold and guarded but less so around people that are not completely human. I'm not against it she's just a hard mode.

● what your character wants: Her family, answers, to get back to her world.
● what your character needs: Friends, support, hugs.

● what your character needs: prrrobably to grow up a little

● any open post/ic inbox links: here's his inbox!

[tevinteraltus]

Okay. So. 2 things:
1) Magnus should totally invite him to do something Dorian has probably never done before. Like video games. He's still finding the uses of all the emoticons on his phone.

2) OMG. If Dorian found out that Magnus actually isn't interested in other dudes or girls, or whatever, he wouldn't know what to do with himself. Mostly because he'd be confused. Granted, boy's confused anyway, because, in every other situation, they would have already had sex, and Magnus would be done with him. 'Cause that's what happens.

● threading habits: I'm CST and work + am starting up school again this week. I can boomerang at random hours (usually late at night my time) especially if it's important for CR. On the other extreme, there can be gaps in my tags when my schedule is insanely busy. But I try to hit things up at least once a day.
● about you: I'm starting up grad school to get my phd next week so that's a thing I'm excited about.

character
● name: Eleven
● age: 12
● occupation: Student at Middle School
● residence: Communal housing on floor 10, bed 10
● about: Extremely awkward kid that's been locked up in a lab because of her psychic mojo powers is let loose in the world for the first time is a good cliff's notes for what interacting with her is like.

● what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: Exploring and missions, but just general stuff like meeting people and learning how to socialize are great too.
● what plans you have for this character: I have no big plans for Eleven right now, but I'd love for her to meet any other kids that are around so she can make friends! I signed her up for the paintball tournament that's coming up, so anything that can come from that would be great too. She's just going to be settling in since she just arrived.
● shipping/smut preferences: I'd prefer no shipping with her, please!

● what your character wants: Waffles and friends. In that exact order.
● what your character needs: See above. She also needs adults she can learn to trust and rely on, and maybe someone who can help her reign in and use her powers in ways that aren't self-destructive and unstable. People she can imitate and learn some social skills from would be good too. Both bad and good influences are welcome.

● any open post/ic inbox links: I don't have any open posts right now, but I'm working on tossing her around the monthly mingle. I'm also planning on tossing up an open log in the next week or so that will enable Eleven to be approached by people.

● anything else:

[ragnarsson]

If you're looking for a bad influence on how to people, I have a teenage Viking warrior who is literally a psychopath. He's angry all the time and wears his emotions on his sleeve, so I'm sure nothing but good will come from influencing a girl with psychic powers.

Jamie | Ava Orlova, Red-haired Marvel Trashfire

[krasnaya_vdova]

player
● name: Jamie
● contact: natalia_vdova#0150 @ Discord is the best; also natalia_vdova
● threading preferences: I'm trash for texting threads, usually prefer brackets, but I'm not prose-adverse.
● threading habits: I'm EST, I love boomeranging stuff, and if you poke me I will hit things asap. I'm usually around on the weekends, and a night owl so I usually post after 10pm. Recently, my uncle's had pretty dire health issues and the holiday crash kicked my ass, but I'm trying to find my groove again.
● about you: #MarvelForLife #TeamCap Still reading comics no matter how much they disappoint me, enjoy the MCU but basically a salt pillar re: my girls. Chronic migraines/headaches, shippertrash, forever a flag-waver for BuckyNat. Ava's canon is terrible and I'll never seriously recommend reading it.

character
● name: Ava Anatalya Orlova
● age: Physically 20, if I ever canon update her it'll be more like 23, but due to shenanigans she's mentally/emotionally older than she looks. Has an additional 70 years of experiences / muscle memory / emotions / etc. Sort of like a vampire, except with Weird Science instead of immortality.
● occupation: She sort of contracts with the Perimeter Guard, mostly works out in the abandoned city, and occasionally sells sketches. She's real good.
● residence: She lives with 616 Steve & Bucky
● about: Redheaded, Russian experiment with notable HYDRA touches, briefly a SHIELD trainee, lots of trauma, tries not to talk about it and wants to make a life for herself. Not particularly good with people, but she tries. Has powers, and is working on not setting things on fire. Punches things, can be pushy if she likes you. Soft on the inside, but frequently prickly.

● what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: Character relations, relationship building, shippy nonsense, missions and expansion... just about everything, really. But girl could definitely use someone to kiss someday.
● what plans you have for this character: Nothing too particular? I'd really love to have the issues with her canon love-interest come up so she could deal with basically being brainwashed into loving someone. She's going to keep working on the abandoned city, seeing what she can do to expand and solidify transportation, so I'm totally here for missions. I also kind of want her to talk through superhero identity issues, and if keeping the Red Widow monicker makes sense in a place where no one understands and no one really connects it to her. Although, her other codename was Winter Storm so whether or not that's better or worse is a point I'd definitely love to leave open to IC discussion. I'd really like her to at least crush on someone for a bit, but that'd probably involve her talking to someone about Alexei first.
● shipping/smut preferences: Defaults to M/F based on previous history. But, I think her hangups are more about trust and understanding and intimacy than particular gender expression. I do generally avoid actual-literal-teens with her, just because of the fore-mentioned age weirdness. Traumatized people, or people familiar with people that have been heavily traumatized are the most likely. Superheroes, soldiers, spies, or really just anyone that can understand ridiculous comics-type drama. Totally here for smut, but it'd probably take a bit for her to get there because trust is important and complicated.

● what your character wants: Friends, family, respect, affection, her cat.
● what your character needs: A nap, some chill, a shoulder to lean on, ladyfriends, affection, things she enjoys, to talk about her problems.

● any open post/ic inbox links: Inbox (seriously throw whatever at me) and her Glow Ball

● anything else:


The art in the second comic is pretty much complete and total garbage, but I do love the invention where Ava and Alexei meet with a sexually-charged fencing match..

[brightline]

I've been really wanting some CR with Ava, and I think Marco might be a good fit? He's recently 20 and spent his formative teen years in a brutal sci-fi body-horror guerilla war where he was almost killed more times than he can count, so while he laughs a lot and pretends not to be serious, he definitely gets PTSD and highly improbable sci-fi drama.

I'd be open to gen stuff for sure, but also shippy nonsense too, or at least shippy prompts (I tend to be one of those "if it works it works" people re: shippiness and he has a few things going on rn).

● about you: been doing this for too long, but returning to games in the last few months. new here with clary and trying to give her some depth etc. idk. mostly i live in the mcu.

character
● name: clary fray/clary fairchild
● age: 18
● occupation: animator/artist
● residence: communal housing floor 5
● about: fresh from watching her father murder jace (who is in the city, but from a time he thinks she's his sister still). she's a shadowhunter/fighter of monsters. she's pretty much a walking ray of sunshine filled with angel blood that's keen to make the most of her new life here. she's been training to fight. she's covered in runes that would normally activate and enhance her abilities. here she's just trying to get back to being the artist she was training to be before life changed.

● what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: extending her emotionally and adding depth through cr and exploring different aspects of her personality.
● what plans you have for this character: just give me all of the cross-canon. all of the gen interactions. give me awkward crushes and dates. give me action. give me parental types that can look out for her. give me more robinfam for her to run into.
● shipping/smut preferences: i'm pretty open if the chemistry is there, but have a preference for f/m.

● what your character wants: ways to work through the emotional mess she has found herself in. ways to "move on" (wink, wink).

Almost forgot to say that I'd really like to get her out of communal housing if anyone wants to talk housemate/roommate shenanigans.

● what your character needs: guidance, friends, people to joke with.

● any open post/ic inbox links: clary's friendr | inbox | glow ball top level

[krasnaya_vdova]

Okay so this might be dumb, but: Katherine McNamara is my live-action PB for Ava here. I don't play that as "looks exactly like Clary" but more in the "vaguely similar, could be mistaken from a distance" sort of way.

And Ava is also an artist. And trying to move on from her boyfriend that got murdered. So if you're interested, they could be interesting. And also terrible, probably. Two strong-willed redheads in close proximity, who knows what will happen?

● occupation: Community Youth Ambassador/ Costumed Vigilante
● residence: Communal Housing Floor 12, Bed 3 || Open to relocating in the future
● about: Info here!
● what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character:
I think either setting up base and organizing things/heroes or exploring and reclaiming the abandoned part of the city?
CR-wise, I think it'd be great to get more friendship; mentorship; being a nosy brother, etc.

● what plans you have for this character: Plotting Ideas Sheet
Basically mostly looking at adventure, building/engineering, team or crime fighting and networking plots atm, but open to anything. Tim's the kind who finds a need and fixes it.
I'd also kind of lowkey love to have an undercover thing for him to rekindle his love for disguises and identities.

● shipping/smut preferences: Not looking atm, prefer to build the right CR before anything happens. Tim's kind of a disaster on the dating scene. Light stuff like hugging/flirting is still cool. o7

● what your character wants: A place with some privacy to do his work; friends who won't die in the near future, maybe expand his skillset and knowledge on magic and dimensions.

● what your character needs: Fulfillment. A place to be and hopefully people to be with him; doing worthwhile things and being the nexus for change.

would love some nosy brother cr and superhero cr! probably the latter leading into the former? lorna here is the latest incarnation of polaris/magneto's daughter, but she is currently on the side of heroing and probably dying for something to do in this place.
