Welcome to the Circle ( # 8 )







IC/OOC CR MEME
Hello everyone, and welcome to Acatalepsy's 8th OOC Intro/CR meme!

We're going to be scheduling these a bit differently, now that we have perma-open apps! But we have a few new players, and it's been awhile since we've had one... so have at it! :)

Tag around, make some friends and some cr. Remember- TDM threads are counted as canon! If you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask.

PS: Join the game discord server here!
Feel free to post around, but we have a player-run open log here for the month of August!
NAME: what do you like to go by!
CONTACT: plurk, discord, etc - whichever would be best to contact you outside of PM’s
TIMEZONE: self explanatory

INTRODUCTION: give a short or long or whatever kind of intro you’d like to give! Talk about the character you app’d! What you like in general! A funny joke you heard! Anything you want to put here at all!!!

CR MEME
CHARACTER NAME: self explanatory!
CHARACTER CANON: also self explanatory!
PERSONALITY: this should be brief! not everyone needs to read up on your entire personality sections- just a couple of sentences of how they come across to others would work.
POWER/ABILITY: feel free to give us a short description on your character's Astoria-granted ability!
INTERESTED CR: something you're looking for specifically? something you just generally love to play out as a player?
ANYTHING ELSE:

hurtcomfort: (huh what?)

Yo! I'm Kates ([plurk.com profile] allikateor) and I decided to app this bundle of confusion & good intentions, Cole from Dragon Age. more info shall come when I fill out a CR meme form but it's lovely to be in a game with y'all!
pileofspirits: (crowded in here)

[personal profile] pileofspirits 2019-08-07 03:57 pm (UTC)(link)
HELLO hi I am also new. I'm Red ([plurk.com profile] redpyre) and I love getting to know other people, so please don't hesitate to friend me on plurk. I don't use discord, so plurk is also the only way to get a hold of me outside of PMing a journal.

I have brought in a ghosty mess of an OC (who I will do a proper CR meme post for) and we're very excited to be here!

Vee | Ilde

[personal profile] invasif 2019-08-07 12:18 am (UTC)(link)
NAME: Vee
CONTACT: itsabee#1072 / [plurk.com profile] itsabee / PM
TIMEZONE: PST

INTRODUCTION: Hi I am Vee!! I am 29 and live in Seattle with my two cats Titania and Oberon. I work as a technical writer. I'm the Acata list mod. I have fibromyalgia and do some writing projects on the topic of chronic illness. I love... Soulsborne, Berserk, Hunter x Hunter, DMC, Yokai Watch, Bee & Puppycat, magical girls, cats, pastels, monsters, and I am no small lover of horror movies/horror media.

CR MEME
CHARACTER NAME: (Lady) Ilde
CHARACTER CANON: Original Character
PERSONALITY: Ilde is a very troubled woman. Most of the time you'll encounter her, she's feminine and soft-spoken, if obviously a miserable person. She wears black all the time 'in mourning', and she is the (sainted) keeper of a dead king's ashes. How she became queen after the king died is... sure a question. While she looks mostly ladylike, she's batshit fucking insane and can be vicious. She's lying and manipulative and there are only a couple of people around that she'll show that face to. Will definitely be providing all kinds of suggestions and ideas to make things that are her idea sound like your idea.
POWER/ABILITY:
INSPIRATION
Glittery glitter lights that inspire people to push past their boundaries and try their hardest! Works best by uniting people into the same goal. No persuasion component.

INTERESTED CR: So something I have been terrible at is actually getting other characters names and learning more about them. That's most what I'm in to right now!! I am canon blind so go ham on any narrative/personal issues you want, I'm here to indulge. eta COME CHITCHAT.

INTRODUCTION: Hello! I'm Megan! I'm 29 and a Librarian in Canada. Hobbies and fandoms for me include RoosterTeeth and their various properties, Video games (usually of the JRPG variety), anime, writing, and podcasts.

CR MEME
CHARACTER NAME: Agent North Dakota
CHARACTER CANON: Red vs Blue
PERSONALITY: North is a rather nurturing character, kind of like the older brother you didn't know you wanted but have now, in both the best and worst ways.

POWER/ABILITY: Reinforcement - can make objects 2-3 times stronger.
INTERESTED CR: All types. Friends, people he can be overbearing at.
ANYTHING ELSE: n/a

I've really enjoyed their convos and would love to keep building their friendship if you are also interested!
brodakota: (Default)

[personal profile] brodakota 2019-08-08 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, very much so! I've enjoyed their CR so far!
hackedhistory: (34)

[personal profile] hackedhistory 2019-08-09 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
Excellent! I'm planning on getting a top level up for her soonish, so hopefully they can have another good convo soon!
brodakota: (Default)

[personal profile] brodakota 2019-08-12 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
Sounds good! I'll keep an eye out for it. North also has one to, but either way I'm looking forward to it.
hackedhistory: (32)

[personal profile] hackedhistory 2019-08-19 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
Belatedly, because work has been eating me: Oh he does! I will go track down his top level and hit him up tonight. =D
hurtcomfort: (Default)

[personal profile] hurtcomfort 2019-08-07 01:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Heeeey, librarian buddy!

Cole is also the sort of character to look out for other's well beings so maybe these two could get trapped in a mutual loop of looking out for & worrying about each other.
brodakota: (Default)

[personal profile] brodakota 2019-08-08 02:53 am (UTC)(link)
o/ always good to meet another!

And yes, I am very much down for this CR. Mutual worrying is always fun.
hurtcomfort: (huh what?)

[personal profile] hurtcomfort 2019-08-09 03:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Awesome! I've got a thread on the tdm or we can wait until an event log gets posted to do some threading: whatever works for you!
brodakota: (Default)

[personal profile] brodakota 2019-08-12 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
If an event log doesn't pop up I can hit up your test drive. Or North has a top level on Roy's open log if you want to tag me.

I guess whoever gets there first?

emily | zari tomaz

[personal profile] hackedhistory 2019-08-07 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
NAME: Emily
CONTACT: [plurk.com profile] iluvroadrunner6, iluvroadrunner6#1178
TIMEZONE: EST

INTRODUCTION: I am a big ol' nerd who watches too much television and that's a majority of what my plurk is when it's not RP things. I also just recently started a new job, so I might be a little slower than usual, but I'm hoping to try and keep on top of things.

CR MEME
CHARACTER NAME: Zari Tomaz
CHARACTER CANON: DCTV's Legends of Tomorrow
PERSONALITY:
Cranky hacker from a dystopian future who thinks the world is a garbage place but sometimes the people who are in it are pretty cool. Also a devout Muslim and a lover of foods of all kinds. Rewards are so much better when you can eat them. Spent a day as a cat because two of her teammates messed with the timeline.

POWER/ABILITY: Her Astoria power is that she can always find Mecca, no matter where she is, but she also got her magic air totem back so she's essentially an air bender.
INTERESTED CR:
All kinds! Zari is currently wanting to dig into the mysteries of a) Where did Astoria and Alcina go? and b) Who is responsible for all of this if it wasn't Alcina? I'm going to have a top level set up for her on the log, hopefully tonight, so if anyone wants to go with her to check out the caverns or share information, she is here to get chatting! She's also been in the circle for over a year, so if anyone has questions about previous missions from Struxta onwards, she can provide that information!

hackedhistory: (62)

[personal profile] hackedhistory 2019-08-07 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
LMAO I'm good with handwaving that stuff since they were on the Alcina quest together, unless it would be more IC for Ilde to not know and not care.
invasif: (pic#12868685)

[personal profile] invasif 2019-08-07 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
Oh no, she's the type to catalog everyone's names even if they have some other nickname and address them very directly laughs. I just forgot to do it 8V

Let's definitely handwave the basic name but I'll probably have her actually ask about some of the other stuff.

[personal profile] hackedhistory 2019-08-07 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
/thumbs up They can poke at each other as they investigate things.

Kates | Cole

[personal profile] hurtcomfort 2019-08-07 01:48 pm (UTC)(link)
NAME: Kates
CONTACT: either allikateor @ plurk or Kates#4814 @ discord
TIMEZONE: CST

INTRODUCTION: yo! I'm Kates and I'm a librarian who lives in the US South. My plurk is mostly me posting about canons of dubious quality (I am here for the CATS reboot, y'all) but I also talk about pets & tabletop role-playing games.

CR MEME
CHARACTER NAME: Cole
CHARACTER CANON: Dragon Age
PERSONALITY: beautiful cinnamon roll, too good too pure. Cole's a spirit of compassion, which means that his driving motivation is that he really wants to help people. Generally good dude, very good at stabbing things, normally has really creepy infomoddy powers but they're nerfed here and he doesn't know what to think about that.
POWER/ABILITY: Cole can find things! If something needs to be found and it's within five miles of him, he'll innately know where that thing is.
INTERESTED CR: anything and everything, tbh. He's new. Cole is the type of person to try and solve others problems, so if you've got a character with a problem, I'd be interesting in threading those things. Likewise, Cole will need some help in how to human. Going from a weird pseudospirit thing to an actual spirit to a spirit hit by a power nerf means that Cole doesn't know things like 'not getting in people's space' and 'wearing actual clothes that fit you and aren't patchwork monstrosities'. Any help with that would be appreciated.
ANYTHING ELSE: his icons don't do justice for how fucking huge his stupid hat is

Red | Phalanx

[personal profile] pileofspirits 2019-08-07 04:36 pm (UTC)(link)
NAME: Red
CONTACT: [plurk.com profile] redpyre (feel free to friend me!)
TIMEZONE: PST

INTRODUCTION: Hello new friends! I'm an artist living with my girlfriend and dog (maybe ugly cat?) in Seattle, I'm a big ol' nerd, and I love meeting people despite the fact that I'm a diehard introvert. Other things I love include: video games, horror (I co-host a spooky-stuff podcast that is currently on hiatus), monsters, animals, dinosaurs, tabletop rp, weird dolls, and science. My plurk is mostly full of me randomly yelling about one of these things.

CR MEME
CHARACTER NAME: Phalanx
CHARACTER CANON: Original! But the closest approximation to the world that Phalanx comes from is probably FMA's magic-and-technology setting.
PERSONALITY: More spirits! Phalanx is technically an undead, necromantic construct, a complete abomination of nature, but they're really not that bothered by it! They're basically a pile of ghosts trying to live in one human shell like kids stacked up in a trenchcoat trying to pretend to be an adult. They're scattered and confused and have a very hard time succeeding at meat-body things sometimes, but they get better at it when they spend more time interacting with other people, and they very much enjoy the journey along the way. They're really just happy to be here, even if they're bad at everything and don't remember why they exist.
POWER/ABILITY: Phalanx's new ability is: scrying! They can zone out while staring into a surface that is deep or reflective or is a field of repeating patterns, and come back with an answer about something. So, if anyone ever wants a question answered or wants something discovered about one of their characters, hit me up on Phalanx's permission post and we can have a fun ghosty time.
INTERESTED CR: Everything! Phalanx is good for all sorts of interaction because they find everything at least a little bit fascinating, will try to socialize even though they are not good at it, are easy to bully but are both physically and emotionally durable (since they drift back to their neutral state even after getting very upset), and they can relate to most people because they are made up of so many different pieces. I'm really just excited to get them into as many situations and throw them at as many people as possible.
ANYTHING ELSE:
hurtcomfort: (huh what?)

[personal profile] hurtcomfort 2019-08-08 01:19 pm (UTC)(link)
GHOST FRIENDS.

I'm adoring Phalanx and Cole already and would love to keep threading with them/have Cole worry about this poor dude.
pileofspirits: (shedding)

[personal profile] pileofspirits 2019-08-08 02:46 pm (UTC)(link)
YAY oh I'm so glad. I've been having SO much fun with these guys.

I've never played DA, but knew about Cole through friends and rp, and had always thought it might be fun to play Phalanx against him. I was very right! I'm loving it.

They'll figure out this whole being-a-person thing someday!
hurtcomfort: (Default)

[personal profile] hurtcomfort 2019-08-09 03:05 pm (UTC)(link)
And Cole will gladly help in that being-a-person quest! Been there, done that, survived that identity crisis.
