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

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. Additionally, check out the TDM for the current Sickness Plot going on in-game. c:

PS: Join the game discord server here!
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?

NAME: Taphy
CONTACT: Taphy#7670
TIMEZONE: EST

INTRODUCTION: Hi! I’m Taphy. I’m terrible at introductions and I’m trying to do this on my phone. Haha! Regardless, I’m super excited to be here. I work as a Patient Advocate, so I’m one of the healthcare people. My hours are pretty set, but I tend to be more active in the morning rather at night. I love manga, comedy shows like Brooklyn 99 and Parks and Rec, and I’m quite fond of the MCU too. Uh. I love YGO and bad jokes.

CR MEME
CHARACTER NAME: Atem
CHARACTER CANON: Yu-Gi-Oh!
PERSONALITY: NOW WITH LESS PHONE AND MORE COMPUTER: Atem is a nerd with a savior complex, very strict moral compass, and difficulty admitting he’s wrong. He’s got jokes though!

He's also an Ancient Egyptian King who is awkward around strangers.

POWER/ABILITY: He has a tiny Osiris. Osiris is a two mouth serpentine dragon that is pretty useless but dang it’s cute.
INTERESTED CR: Please make friends with him. He's ornery. So positive CR is awesome! I'm also down for negative CR since he's post-DSOD, so he won't bat an eyelash at assisting Astoria. Saving the universe from encroaching darkness is just part of his job description as a Pharaoh.

He's going to be dealing with the fact he has two very different sets of memories in his head, one being his own and the other being an entirely other character's but still his, too. It's complicated and involves possession.

Uh, he can probably teach your character to write or speak Middle Egyptian, and it's my dream for him to get annoyed enough with someone to teach them how to write "I mount butts" as a secret troll maneuver.

At first he may be seen more often at the fighting arena, getting used to the weaponry Astoria has provided and trying to "tame" Osiris. So any fun CR that spawns from that practice would be fantastic. This is actually one of the things I'm most interested in working on at first, since Atem is a military leader (and knows quite a bit about swordsmanship), but he's also very fond of actually utilizing games instead to solve his problems. A nice little inner conflict.

If Atem needs weapons training, Wash is good at weapons training!

He's also good at sarcasm and putting up with ornery people, so this should be fun. :Db

I’m down for that! He’s lacking in about 3,000 years of difference with military tactics. Except he knows how to rig an explosive... we... we don’t wonder how a card game nerd knows how to do that.

So, modern fighting styles would be good! Especially help with bulkier swords since his sense of reference would be curved blades very similar to battle-axes and archery.
unrecovered: (Well...)

[personal profile] unrecovered 2018-09-07 07:05 pm (UTC)(link)
What, you didn't learn explosives as part of your deck building strategy?

Wash is best at firearms (which, for the most part, aren't here, so he's none too happy about that), but he's also Good At Knives, should Atem like to learn how to shank someone with a short blade.

Pfft, he knows how to use a knife. This is how you do it.

...

yeah he'll need to learn how to use a knife properly but at least he knows how to use a sword
unrecovered: (Well...)

[personal profile] unrecovered 2018-09-07 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
...so the conversation about knife safety needs to come before the conversation about knife usage. Good to know.

I have an open log for Wash if you'd like to hop in!

First off I'm so excited to see YGO this was my jam so much

Second: please teach Cayde how to say 'I mount butts', he'd find it hilarious

(and apropos of nothing, there's a very famous osiris in his world so finding out that Atem's dragon is named that is going to tickle him pink)
metagame: (You solved my impossible puzzle!)

[personal profile] metagame 2018-09-08 12:25 am (UTC)(link)
aww, thanks. i'm playing from the manga version so, uh, atem is... yeah.

he will teach people that secretly, but not so secretly if they want. it's not like anyone could rightfully tell the difference, the word that means man has an actual drawn dick in it. puns and dick jokes for days!

i know a little about destiny because jeff, our jonouchi player and a friend of mine, is a big fan, so i actually kind of knew about destiny!osiris! not... too much, but enough to know that there is an osiris in destiny. egyptian mythos, man, can't escape 'em

[personal profile] metagame 2018-09-08 09:15 am (UTC)(link)
HOW LONG UNTIL HE FIGURES OUT ATEM IS YUGI... probably soon because the dumbass mentioned it with Jonouchi.
hauhra: (and that's everything) (one jump ahead of the slowpokes)

[personal profile] hauhra 2018-09-08 05:56 pm (UTC)(link)
i mean tbf bakura only got away with as much as he did because the nerd herd either won't call him out or they're just plain gullible

just bein ic
