The All-Purpose CR/Plotting Meme



The meme is open to, as per always, making arrangements with and between:
- Current characters in game.
AND
- Potential characters - any characters you may be planning on apping or reapping (there is a special header for this under the main post).
If you have an app in that has not been processed, please, don't be shy about commenting around for prospective CR and plans on entry - though, of course, remember that plans will be tentative!

For ideas, please consult the plot digests and/or the locations/soft facts page.

For characters of either status, toss up a comment with your character's reincarnated name, pre-incarnated name, canon, and occupation in the subject line. E.x. "Cinderella | Rarity | My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic | Family Pet" In the body, of course, place any information you see fit; go on ahead and use this form if you'd like a place to start or take it however you feel!

<b>Reincarnation:</b> Name <b>Pre-Incarnation:</b> Name/Canon <b>Location(s):</b> Where can your character be encountered? <b>A blurb about them:</b> (Feel free to write them up a blurb here - especially encouraged if they're a character you're considering rather than one established in-game! Alternatively omit.) <b>Open/Wanted CR:</b> (Have you any certain types of CR/dynamics you hope to bring into development?) <b>Hooks:</b> (Places where one might meet them, hobbies/activities through which one might know them, things in others that would make the character get into contact, whatever would bring your character and others together!) <b>Plans/ongoing character plots:</b> (Anything a person ought to know - any plans for them or things you've wanted to write them doing?

Thom Knight | Takato Matsuda | Digimon Tamers | Student

[dreamtamer]

Reincarnation: Thom Knight. Very tentatively. I'm still tossing names around.
Pre-Incarnation: Takato Matsuda/Digimon Tamers
Location(s): local primary school, around Moss Manor
A blurb about them: Just a really nice kid. With a digital firebreathing baby dinosaur dragon thing as a partner, which he sort of created. Also the two of them sort of saved their world from a rogue program that decided it was going to delete sadness from the world by deleting everything.

That's going to be fun to echo back.

Open/Wanted CR: Still trying to work out the details on his reincarnation. But he'd probably going to need family members, neighbors, teachers, friends...

Hooks: Primary school, art things, geeky things.... Also thinking of having him be a volunteer at local animal shelters.

Plans/ongoing character plots: I'm planning on doing a combo app, and bringing in his partner Guilmon as his pet dog. Who will quickly be a talking pet dog. Tentatively, he'll be a big friendly labradoodle named Gizmo.

Re: Thom Knight | Takato Matsuda | Digimon Tamers | Student

[iamnotgod]

Geeky things! Or: another of those younglings that Walter's inadvertantly become friends with due to knowledge of his computer skills spreading around.

Alas, he's never really owned pets (likes them, but hasn't personally been responsible for one's care; same for his sister), so he'll have no idea what to make of Guilmon once more of his Digimon nature starts coming through...

Re: Thom Knight | Takato Matsuda | Digimon Tamers | Student

[untailed]

Pending the okay of the other family members, but... There's three slots left in Mary Ann's biological children group. One child who is younger than Nel, and two who are older. The only things that are set in stone for those kids is that they are Mary Ann and her wife Janice's biological children, that they live with the family in Moss Manor, and well, the family members. The family is middle class and has American roots, the kids have been born and raised in England and... that's pretty much it?

Would you be interested in that? Then I could ask the rest of the family.

Rini Schorel | Fai D. Flourite | Tsubasa Chronicle | Storybook Writer/Mask Crafter

[faimommy]

Reincarnation: Rini Schorel
Pre-Incarnation: Fai D. Flourite/Tsubasa Chronicle

Location(s): Parks; Candy shops; his mask shop; any place that sells faerie anything.

A blurb about them: Rini loves faeries and wishes with all of his heart that he could be one. So, he collects faerie paraphernalia and dresses vibrantly to match it. He also writes storybooks for children and is well-published. When he's not writing stories, he makes masquerade masks for his little nook of a store. Rini loves children and will try to teach them to make flower rings and faerie houses if given the chance. Overall he's sweet and full of smiles for everyone. If you recognize him as a writer, he'll probably gush about faerie tales at you.

He will have moved to Mossgate from the Netherlands, as he's looking for specific family members. I'm toying with the idea of either his parents who gave him up at birth, or a long-lost brother with a single parent situation. I'll say he's been here about half a year or so.

Open/Wanted CR:
-Family members; brother, parents, additional siblings/cousins if he's not an orphan.
-FRIENDS! Please give him some!
-Boyfriend? Previous boyfriends? He's 35 but still looks 20.
-I'm also open to any suggestions; if you have an idea, bring it to me!

Hooks:
-Parks are inevitable. He gets inspiration for stories from flowers and watching children play, and may even be showing people how to make Faerie Houses, or reading to them.
-His little mask shop. He runs it for a few hours a day, but he's there to spread joy and accepts commissions.
-Candy shops. He apparently has a sweet tooth from Hell. And yes, you can expect him to share.
-Any place that sells faerie anything. He's obsessed with them, so yea.
-It's not unusual to see him wear faerie wings while he plays in the flowers, either.
-He has a white cat named Mocha, that will follow him around. Good kitty~ Feel free to approach it.

Plans/ongoing character plots: If he likes you, he'll probably drag you to his house at some point for tea and sweets, and you'll get to see all of the faerie hoarding in his abode. Expect potential questions about possible family members, if he happens to find any leads on them.

Gideon Jewell | Ghirahim | Zelda: Skyward Sword | Beauty Youtuber

[glamnivorous]

Reincarnation: Gideon Jewell
Pre-Incarnation: Ghirahim | LoZ: Skyward Sword
Location(s): Mossgate, mostly, pretty much anywhere in there aside from the REALLY lower class stores. He's a big frequent of anywhere that sells beauty products, and there's probably a specific salon he goes to a lot tbh he's always getting his hair dyed.
A blurb about them: In his previous life? Ghirahim was a ruthless weapon for the Demon King, Demise. (Yes, you read that right.) Literally, a sword given a personality. He was flamboyant and powerful in his own right, even without his Master by his side. He had a bad tendency of being flirtatious and highly enjoyed combat and bloodshed, tending to become more violent when angered. He had a strong dislike of pretty much anything relating to the Goddesses, particularly Hylia. Partially out of jealously. He wins the honorary Zelda award of "only villain to succeed in his plan". He had a lot of tenacity, but he was also very vain.

Gideon is much more down to earth. He still has a temper, but he tends to take that out on video games, and he's deeply entrenched in internet culture. He's a very snarky sort of person and he loves innuendo. He takes his job as a youtuber only semi-seriously, because it's fun first for him. HE LOVES ALL HIS SUBS SO MUCH OK.

Open/Wanted CR: Well, I obviously want him to have a relationship with his sister, but I would love for him to have relationships with potential fans or just people in the same circles as he is. Also he is a big gay, so a boyfriend is also not off the table. And I just want people to find out about his channel or meet him bc of it because my god, the kind of shit he would do. It would go from makeup tutorials that were only sometimes serious to stuff like "I painted myself green to blend in with my green screen for me time" and "I made a hideous pants chair with staples, because the comments told me about it on twitter or something and I couldn't NOT do it".

Hooks: - Big online presence? IDK if it counts as a hook, but the tentative plan is that Gideon is whatever the equivalent of a Youtuber would be in this environment. He's been doing this for the better part of a few years now, pretty much since he got out of school.
- He goes out into Mossgate to just vlog pretty much daily, so he's always trying new things and checking places out. It's easy to catch him pretty much anywhere, honestly.
- Pet store
- Anywhere beauty products are sold for sure.
- There's probably a specific salon he frequents. He likes his hair one style and he likes to dye it a lot.
- Coffee shop bc you know hes got to get the sugariest coffee ever
- Video game store(s) / places where they're sold, he's into those
- Could get to know you through his sister, too, potentially

Plans/ongoing character plots: The current plan is to app him and his sister, Fiona, together (my wife will play her). Fiona being Fi, of course. Both the swords. Honestly he's a really accommodating guy, and he's pretty personable, if you don't mind how much he clearly loves to ramble, so it'd be very likely he'd be happy to just talk to people wherever/whenever. He's about mid-twenties, so I think anyone who could've gone to school with him or people he was close to back then (old boyfriends for example) might be great CR.

Anything Else?: I am not sure how him recording things would work wrt numbered stuff, especially since he only would have recently become one, so he would have had an online presence before that started, but generally his channel is aimed at the unsuspecting masses, so there's really nothing weirder than the Hideous Jeans Chair in there. pls be gentle this is my first ever one of these things... i have like no clue what im doing, i hope this is ok ajsakjf

Fiona "Fi" Jewell || Fi || Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword || University Student

[fisiognomy]

Reincarnation: Fiona "Fi" Jewell
Pre-Incarnation: Fi/The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
Location(s): Mostly around Mossgate and Mossgate University--she's not as picky as her brother and probably even does charity work.
A blurb about them: In her original incarnation, Fi is the spirit of the Master Sword. She starts off unable to emote (and still doesn't really by the end of the game) and very computerish. She's sassy despite that and tries to be helpful. She has a range of abilities and eventually basically trapped the Big Bad within her own body to degrade him while her own consciousness is to degrade (tho Breath of the Wild implies she's still in there some tens of thousands of years later SO).

In her new life, she's the younger sister of Gideon Jewell and she's currently studying at Mossgate University to follow her parents into the software building track of life. She's a very smart girl, and a very sweet girl, but she has sass, and is the straight man to her brother's ridiculousness. Someone's behind the camera often, after all, and she probably knows how to edit better than him. Basically she's the tech power behind his charismatic rise on YouTube. Also she's asexual with biromantic leanings. She does operate her own, much smaller channel, but it's all just song covers she does in her spare time and for fun. It's probably not super big if it's really got many fans at all.

Open/Wanted CR: MAN I AM OPEN FOR A LOT. There's her brother (above), but also like. Friends and such. Maybe even classmates or such. She's into watching ballet, and does do some on-the-side not-super-serious dancing, so anyone who might have noticed and might try to recruit her to amateur ballet performances (or drama performances in general) could be fun. She's more artsy than she seems, and she is a good singer. No dating yet, she's far too focused on schooling (and honestly flirting with her might go right over her head).

Hooks: - She is a university student
- Ballet stuff she attends local drama performances often period
- She has her own YT channel with song covers of all kinds, so it's possible she's covered some Obscure Artist you know
- She likely does charity work when she can
- Friends from growing up

Plans/ongoing character plots: Eventually she's going to turn into metal and lose the ability to use her hands, because as a Sword Spirit she has none and just sleeves. She'll have to echo back her telekinesis she uses in canon to do that. Otherwise, she's going to live a normal life and try to be the foil to her brother's ridiculousness.

Anything Else?: Bring her out of her shell pls she's going to be snarky and kinda meh at everything because that's how she is. But when she lights up, she lights up.

Ilari Puera | Kusuriuri | Mononoke | Part-timer and Beauty Therapist

[ibringagift]

Reincarnation: Ilari Puera
Pre-Incarnation: Kusuriuri/Mononoke
Location(s): Up for debate, but see the 'Hooks' section for more.

A blurb about them:
In his canon, Kusuriuri travels as a medicine merchant. He is, however, a type of Mononoke hunter. He goes to the places where they will show up to bring an end to them as needed. However, in order to be able to eliminate them, he needs to know the form of the Mononoke, the truth that brought them here, and the regret they have. Kusuriuri has an amused dissonance for dealing with these beings and the people involved in the danger around them.

I don't have much set in stone for him yet, but so far I would definitely like for him to be the sole caretaker for either a younger sibling or cousin as their parents died. He's going to be a doting type of person, too. Which means he'll go out of his way to help with homework and make sure there's treats involved. Being Finnish, he will have broken English, but enough to carry a conversation. He'll be moving to Mossgate after a bad breakup with a former partner, and trying to start a new life. So there will be some struggling in there as he leaves an old career behind in an attempt to move on from this person. I'm looking at him maybe having been a former teacher? Something flexible that would allow him to dedicate time to the kiddo.

Open/Wanted CR: Younger sibling/cousin adopted by them. People that might potentially "adopt" him and his younger sibling/cousin (Helps out when they're in a pinch; dotes on them; etc.). Honestly, anything else is awesome, too. Come friend him or hate him.

Hooks: Thinking Mossgate or Folkton for living quarters. As far as careers for him in his new place, something with flexible hours will still be required. So maybe working a few part-time jobs such as in a café and maybe running as a beauty therapist inside his home. Still juggling ideas in that, but would still be along those lines. Beauty therapist is almost guaranteed, though. Might even do tutoring on the side. When kiddo is at school, he can probably be found in various cafes himself, or even book and supply stores to make sure everything is well-tended to at home. He can also probably found in the park eating a box lunch as he reads various recipes and help-tips to raising kids. His focus is the kid in his care, so don't be too surprised if you see him running himself a little ragged.

When he isn't being frantic and is actually taking time for himself, he can be found ice skating, bird and butterfly watching, whittling wood, various do-it-yourself projects - sometimes in an open area such as a park or in a class, or sometimes out at night trying to study the stars. He's trying a lot of various hobbies to try and shake off the last heartbreak he had, so he's probably open to just about anything else that someone might try to get him involved in, as long as he can work it around his dependent.

Plans/ongoing character plots: Eventually, I would like him to recover from his heartbreak, be it via friends or even a potentially new love interest. He deserves to have it good. And, of course, breakdowns are inevitable. I would love for some people to be willing to pick him up, even when he's trying to be so strong for his dependent. I'd even be up for anyone who would be willing to be his dependent to even see through the cracks and see that Ilari is struggling, but trying his best.

Anything Else?: Some of the things from his past life are a bit dark, so he might have some meltdowns with memories and things. But anything that's warning worthy will appear in my Permissions later. And I always ask first, anyway. Don't know if that needed that warning, but there you go.

Lucas Jones | Lucifer Morningstar | Lucifer | TV producer

[mockeryofthedivine]

Reincarnation: Lucas Jones (born Sacred Light Jones, because having a religious celebrity parent can suuuck)
Pre-Incarnation: Lucifer Morningstar
Location(s): Pinewood Studios mostly, since that's where he works. Also the Hive, along with any other clubs and bars that might be in Mossgate.
A blurb about them: Lucifer is Literally Satan, except he decided to retire from ruling Hell to move to LA. Where he opened a club and decided to help the LAPD solve crimes, as you do.

Lucas, his reincarnation, is one of the many adopted children of legendary musician Bob Jones, who who front-lined the massively successful classic rock band Copilot. Lucas came to resent his dad quite a bit as he got older, and gained quite a bit of notoriety in the tabloids as a teenager and young adult as Bob Jones's unruly, rebellious, out-of-control son. He left home at 18 and after a few years of generally being a mess, managed to start getting work in television behind the scenes as a writer. He eventually moved into producing, and has been working as a producer on various TV productions ever since.

He's a new resident to Mossgate, having moved there around 4 months ago to work on a specific production which will be figured out at a later date. He also decided to work on this particular production in this place in part because his sister Rae happens to live in Mossgate.

Open/Wanted CR: Since Lucas is new to Mossgate, most of the people he'll know will be new acquaintances. Good candidates for that would be anyone involved the work at the film studios, or who have met him at various clubs and bars. I'm pretty up for all sorts of things though!

Hooks:
- Lucas's Dad was Uber Famous, so knowing anyone who might have been a fan could also know about Bob Jones's children
- TV work: aside from those already involved, it is totally possible for Lucas to pull in locals to have small parts or be extras in the show he's working on
- If you are an attractive adult of either gender, it is totally possible for Lucas to have had a one night stand with you
- He also likes drugs and has no doubt made contact with some local drug dealers, sooo...that's a thing

Plans/ongoing character plots: I've got a friend who is also planning to app Lucifer's sister Azrael, and the two of them would also be siblings in their reincarnations as well.

[deathrae]

Reincarnation: Ray Jones (born Celestial Ray Jones because yaaaaaay celebrity parents)
Pre-Incarnation: Azrael, angel of death (from the Lucifer Netflix series)
Location(s): Mossgate University
A blurb about them: Azrael is the angel of death, an anxious angel who takes the dead to heaven and has a blade that can literally remove their soul from existence.

Celestial Ray, also known as Just Ray to literally everyone she introduced herself to, is one of the many adopted children of legendary musician Bob Jones, who who front-lined the massively successful classic rock band Copilot. Her favourite older brother, Lucas, broke out of the family and moved out when he was 18, and Ray was only 12, and his running away was a very defining moment in how he viewed her family from that point. She and Lucas remained in touch through letters and, later, emails, but Ray made very active attempts to stay out of the limelight and let their other siblings take the stage. She didn't break away from the family until she was in her twenties. It wasn't as much of a big dramatic I'M LEAVING FOREVER thing as much as her wanting to step into her own path in life; and so she came to Mossgate, because the university had a really good marine biology course she wanted to pursue. Gurl loves fish.

Open/Wanted CR: Fellow students, present or previous! She's just started finished studying her Masters in Marine Sciences, and was previously studying a Bachelor of Marine Biology. Also general friends, as she's a quiet but generally likable person.

Hooks: Ray has been living in Mossgate for the last six and a half years studying her Masters in Marine Science, so she's a relatively known presence, particularly in cafes and restaurants in the immediate area around Mossgate University; she's also a frequent sight around the pier, beach, cliffs and general seaside areas, especially when she's in the middle of a study crunch - she finds them relaxing.

She is also currently looking for a job! She outright bought an apartment near the high street of Mossgate so she's never far from anything, but she currently is unemployed and wanting to find a job that works with her masters.

Her father is also an Uber Famous Rockstar, so it's not hard for those meeting her for the first time to recognise her as one of Bob Jones's children, though she will adamantly deny it with a plethora of unreasonable and/or stupid excuses.

Plans/ongoing character plots: I'm apping alongside a friend who's submitting Lucifer to the game, so they'll be siblings both before and after their memories start returning!

Torin Byrd | Torin | Zyuden Senti Kyoryuger | Professor/Dinosaur TV Guy

[radiantchicken]

Reincarnation: Torin Byrd
Pre-Incarnation: Torin / Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger
Location(s): Mossgate University, museums
A blurb about them: So in canon, he's an ancient birdman who founds a super sentai team and fights evil with the power of bravery and dinosaurs. Here, think Bill Nye but with dinosaurs instead of general science. He's had a number of dinosaur-related projects over the years, including books and a beloved kids' show on public television that's been shown in several countries. He's super enthusiastic about paleontology and education, and he wants to share this enthusiasm with everyone.

Open/Wanted CR: He's a potential Cool Dinosaur Uncle...and his (estranged) family is a group of superrich crooked real estate developers, so there are a few angles there. He's got contacts in odd places, even if some might be more positive than others. I'm up for just about anything at this point.

Hooks: Right now, he'll be a professor of paleontology and researcher at Mossgate University, and he's also got that dinosaur show in the past and generally loves his fans.

Plans/ongoing character plots: He's eventually going to turn into a giant bird-thing and I don't plan on hitting him with that right away, but it'll be a thing! He's also his canon's living incarnation of bravery, and that will be another thing to work towards, too.

Anything Else?: In summary: dinosaurs.

Hildred Deering | Ultimo | Karakuri Dōji Ultimo | Beauty Therapist

[ultimate_angel]

Reincarnation: Hildred Deering
Pre-Incarnation: Ultimo | Karakuri Dōji Ultimo

Location(s): Lives in Tarwich. He runs a small beauty parlor inside his home for personal clients, and works for a professional one as well in Mossgate.

A blurb about them: Ultimo (nickname Uru or Ulti) is a mechanical boy from the future implanted into 12th Century Japan to prove what is stronger - Ultimate Good or Ultimate Evil. Ultimo embodies the Ultimate Good, and over the centuries, he chooses his master Yamato, even after his master's reincarnation. Ultimo is very sweet and naive and is friendly as long as Yamato isn't threatened or he senses good in someone. He just wants to be a good boy and make Yamato happy.

Reincarnated as Hildred (nicknamed Hild), he grew up as a middle child in a larger family of seven children and so feels the pressures of that Middle Child Syndrome. Growing up in Mossgate, he thrived in his studies to garner additional attention, but of course always felt like it fell short compared to other family members. He can be manipulative, sarcastic, and sassy. Sews and wears fashionably noticeable clothing. Thanks to an older sister's influence, he enjoys crossdressing and he became a beauty therapist as he got older. He's 20 now.

Open/Wanted CR: Siblings and extended family are exceptionally welcome! People that buy into his crap as well, as he can be quite the manipulator to try and get extra attention. People who call him out on these antics, etc. Customers, potential partners, flatmates. Honestly, this is just a small sampling and I'm down for just about anything.

Hooks: Makeup, sewing, and fashion shops; the Leisure Centre and Lido in Mossgate. Pet stores are a favourite, because he loves tiny animals. Creates bake sales and makeover events for charity, as well as accepts sewing commissions.

Plans/ongoing character plots: So, his bratty personality is mostly temporary. When he gains back his SpiritSphere, he's going to have to become the Ultimate Doji of Good again, and so some personality traits will recede at that point. I'm definitely here for people to notice Hild being "off" and people to call him out on it; maybe even for some people he manipulates to be like, "yea, I'm not buying it." And for someone for him to cling to when he needs the Master/Page relationship; friendship-wise or romantically are both acceptable.

Anything Else?: Tiny mechanical boy just wants to love you.

Leith Ivers | Kei (Cristo) | Cristo: Jougan no Messiah | Teacher's Assistant?

[amonsterbyanyothername]

Reincarnation: Leith Ivers
Pre-Incarnation: Kei/Cristo: Jougan no Messiah
Location(s): Up for debate

A blurb about them:
Kei is a laidback, retired Sweeper. A Sweeper chases monsters called Adys and eliminates them. He was once the legendary Orange-Eyed Messiah called Cristo. But he retired the name with his Sweeper status, as he hated killing anything living, even if it was something bad. But when he discovers that an Adys named Kamuro is still alive, he rises again to the challenge to take him down. He generally gives off a naive-but-confident air, and cheerfully supports others.

Leith is born into the cult from Walter's childhood and left around 2005ish. Due to an accident in his childhood, Leith is mute. He knows BSL, and loves stargazing. He makes intricately designed star charts in his free time. I haven't decided on his career yet; maybe have him be a Teacher's Assistant for deaf and mute students. He is terribly afraid of water, due to the incident in his childhood. As far as personality differences, he'll be a bit of an airhead; doing things on a whim or forgetting things. He's a bit of a dreamer. However, he can and will lash out angrily if he feels he is wronged; this can be as little as accidentally knocking over his drink, and being angry is worsened by not being able to speak. However, he will also come around and apologise if he's the one in the wrong. He hates being teased.

Open/Wanted CR: Someone to get him away from his parents so that he can become more of an individual would be great. Other than that, anything and everything. I know it's broad, but I'm open to anything with him. Especially since I've still got a lot up for debate with him. If you want it, I can probably make it happen.

Hooks: Stargazing is his favourite. Maybe volunteering at places like a library to do sign language with stories. His mother's homeopathy shop; garden shopping in general.

Plans/ongoing character plots: Hooboy, remembering his past is going to be a problem for this child. He may regain his voice later on, but right now I don't see it happening. Remembering he's the very thing he kills, though - an Adys - is just going to trip him out. Be prepared for some ultimate breakdowns from this poor kid. Or when he gets his eyepatch echoed back, he's going to be asking who played a joke on him. I got lots for this test tube baby to do.

Anything Else?: As always, when in doubt, ask! I'm happy to ask questions, either here or you can pm me at Tseil

Sam Stone | Stone of Indigo Cloud | Books of the Raksura | Retired American Airforce/pilot instructo

[scarsolderthanyou]

Reincarnation: Sam Stone
Pre-Incarnation: Stone of Indigo Cloud/Books of the Raksura
Location(s): Just about anywhere? He's retired, and he likes to wander, especially at odd hours
A blurb about them: A grumpy old American airforce pilot who occasionally teaches piloting in his bitty airplane. He granddads aggressively at people, and has a small hoard of grandchildren, plus his daughter in town. He's also fairly recently turned gray all over, which requires he wear make-up all the time when in public, to his great annoyance. In his original life, he was a dragon-shifter alien, though still a grumpy old man.

Open/Wanted CR: Really he just kind of wants to adopt everyone. And boss them around.

Hooks: He reads some, he babysits the grandkids (the ones who still need babysitting, anyway), he is going to try and volunteer at the police station to keep an eye on things, he likes going out by the beach when it's warm and sunny, and he does go to the graveyards regularly to visit various graves, including that of his wife. He can really be found just about anywhere, though, following various scents around the town.

Plans/ongoing character plots: There's the police station thing, and also he will be involved in tracking important stuff around town come the next mingle-event thingy, per the last plot digest.

Anything Else?: Nah :) Come meet the grumpy old man

[catted]

When Sam starts with the neighbourhood watch, his daughter will very much encourage him, because yay for dad getting out and socialising that really is a thing he's qualified for with his background, isn't he, and it's very useful for the Numbered =D

Jimmy Dupin | Shinichi Kudo | Detective Conan | American Exchange Student

[lovedramamoron]

Reincarnation: Jimmy Dupin
Pre-Incarnation: Shinichi Kudo
Location(s): Bookstores, libraries, high school places, various places around Mossgate
A blurb about them: High school exchange student from New York, who is also an aspiring mystery writer. In his previous life he was a famous high school detective, and he's slowly starting to get interested in solving mysteries for himself.

Open/Wanted CR: Anything, but especially fellow teens to hang out with and friendly adults to mentor him. People to argue with, too. Jimmy is starting to get involved in the investigation plots too, so people to do investigation things with would also be great.

Hooks: Tourism type places and new experiences, since this is Jimmy's first time outside of New York. Libraries, bookstores and coffee shops. High school events.

Plans/ongoing character plots: Long term, goal is to make him a detective again. In the sort term, hes getting more and more interested in investigating all the strange things going on, even though he doesn't really have the skill or experience to do anything yet. Other plans... to accidentally publish a short story based on some of the memories he's echoing back. Oops. Also to expand his CR.

Russell Scordato | Papyrus | Undertale | Customer serice / theatre tech

[spaghettimonster]

Reincarnation: Russell Scordato
Pre-Incarnation: Papyrus / Undertale
Location(s): On the network, at his job, at the theatre, sometimes accompanying Chad on walks around Mossgate, and sometime just anywhere that he can stare meaningfully at scenery
A blurb about them: Russell's an aspiring actor who used to balance a couple of part-time jobs, but finally decided to go full-time and put some funds aside in anticipation of looking too skeletal for a job. It's put him out of some of his hobbies and out of the loop of some of the network things, and he's cranky about it.

Open/Wanted CR: I would love for some of Russell's more ordinary friends, from theatre or uni or just knowing them around town, suddenly got involved in all this

Hooks: Russell posts videos to the Network sometimes, so there's a good chance of other numbered folks recognizing his face. He's related to Ben and friends with Sadie and Walter, meaning he's on the edge of a lot of plotty things as those three do investigating into everything going on, and meets various numbered people through them... He's still involved in the theatre troupe in Mossgate, people of a similar age from Moss Manor might remember him from school, people who went to uni in London several years ago might know of him or Walter.

Plans/ongoing character plots: He's slowly gaining memories of a militarized monster underground and basically nothing of an alternate childhood, and he's turning into a lich or skeleton or something. So he's pretty sure necromancy was involved??? That's not great.

Anything Else?: If me posting a week late isn't an indication, I'm good with backtagging

Rune Vollan | Fai D. Flourite | Tsubasa Chronicle | Troupe Manager

[faimommy]

Okay, round 2! Sorry about that. Due to extenuating life circumstances, I withdrew the former Rini Schorel app for Fai, and have recently re-written him a bit. Former CRs with Rini can primarily remain the same with Rune, just let me know if that's what you want! Otherwise, new things are always available. :3

Reincarnation: Rune Vollan
Pre-Incarnation: Fai D. Flourite/Tsubasa Chronicle
Location(s): Libraries, bookstores, coffee shops. Primarily settled in Mossgate, but travels between cities regularly.

A blurb about them: Rune is from Norway and still a faerie-loving nerd, but this time has come back as the manager of a traveling troupe that he inherited from his former troupe manager. Rune is skilled in gymnastics, ballet, as well as costume-making, and enjoys all things storytelling. Rune can often be found trying to do research into folklores for his plays on his days off. He also seeks out information on his long-lost brother.

Rune loves to tease and may attempt to push your character's buttons, though he usually doesn't try to take it too far, and will quickly apologise if he does. He also has a bit of a temper and has a zero tolerance policy on namecalling and bullying, intervening whenever he sees it. Rune doesn't necessarily like to, but can definitely be stern as the situation calls for it. Rune boasts confidence and a carefree attitude overall, though, and loves to have a good time with people, rarely declining invitations to hang out with others.

Rune speaks Norwegian, English, and French. Though his inflections in his accents can make him a little hard to understand. Think like gentle Scottish, and you've almost got the Norwegian accent.

Open/Wanted CR: Long-lost bro; troupe members; friends; potentially extended family members? He has a whole side from his father's family he hasn't gotten to know; Negative CR is welcome too, if anyone wants that.

Hooks: Libraries, bookstores, records of persons he can get his hands on, coffee shops, sewing stores, practice arenas for gymnastics and ballet. Loves social gatherings, and may just casually invite himself if he sees a party in a bar or restaurant. His options are open; let me know if you have a specific setting in mind, and chances are he can show up there somehow.

Plans/ongoing character plots: Auditions for new troupe members would be fun! Otherwise, anything social. He wants more friends, even if he already might have a bunch.

Anything Else?: Hit me up! I'm excited to be here!

Re: Rune Vollan | Fai D. Flourite | Tsubasa Chronicle | Troupe Manager

[iamnotgod]

Accident-turned-friendship with these two is still a-go, I take it~?

Also have probably met up more than a few times at the same bookstores, if not necessarily over the same books!

And of course, if Rini is maintaining a website for his troupe, Walter would be a great help in that...
