> OOC MINGLE AND WELCOME

Howdy howdy! This was a decently sized app around between both new and older players, so we wanted to use the good ol' mingle post! This is a space for our new players to introduce themselves, as well as our older players to announce their new characters.

Please feel free to have at it! Our CR meme will go up on Friday, so keep an eye out for it! There will be more plot-related tidbits to chatter about there. Also feel free to join the Discord channel if you're up for it.

Pictures of pets are also considered acceptable introductions.

kas 💥 agent maine

[bloodbathing]

Hello everyone! I'm Kas, I'm new, and I'm bringing you Maine from Red vs. Blue.


Maine is a 7-foot-tall muscle-bound wall of rage and loyalty. He's extremely taciturn with a violent temper, but he'll throw himself in front of bullets to protect people. Dedicated, bullheaded, heavily influenced by the people around him, and secretly a bit of a dork. Great as an ally, terrifying as an enemy! He has a Complicated Relationship with A.I., and he'll be sssssuper displeased by the stance this world has taken.

Maine's coming in with about 1.5 years of CRAU experience under his belt, so he's relaxed a fair bit and learned a lot about himself. He was previously in a smut game set on a ~sexy space station~. I've opted to fuzz his memories a bit: he won't recall specific partners unless players are 100% on board. (This is unlikely to come up much since he won't recognize mmmmmost of the taken list, but!! Just putting it out there.)

Maine's power is called Feral Mind. It's essentially a berserker power that gives him a boost to speed/reaction time. It also causes him to focus solely on the source of his anger/stress with no regard for the people around him. :') You can read more about it (and about Maine in general) on his info/permissions page. Looking forward to playing with y'all!

KAS!!!!! I'M SO GLAD WE'RE IN A GAME TOGETHER AGAIN!!!

I'm so looking forward to these two giant balls of anger and their anger motivating powers. What could possibly go wrong? Nothing, that's what!

[monomachy]

hello, kas! i'm iola, and i play diana prince a.k.a. wonder woman from the dceu and nill from the manga DOGS: BULLETS & CARNAGE (also a crau!) here in meadowlark. i'm so excited to see more rvb characters this round c: maine's power sounds really cool, and i'm excited to see how you utilize it. welcome to the game!

[requiemshark]

i'm super excited to be in a game with you again! This is going to be fun :D

I have absolutely no idea how these two are going to end up but I'm READY for it.

[championofsnark]

HI KAS IT IS DEE WELCOME. I have Hawke over here too but she has no CRAU, but she's been friendly with Carolina and likes fellow soldiers in general so! She's in the fighting rings a lot kicking butt if he decides to go there.

I also have Quentin Coldwater filloryfanatic from The Magicians, he is a very nice idealistic type of guy, former magic user, very shy and friendly at the same time. Glad to have you here!

[nonscriptum]

YESSSSSS GLAD TO BE IN A GAME WITH YOU AGAIN, MY DUDE!!!!!!

preemptively sorry for the awkwardness that will transpire from Nate knowing (a different) Maine

[unlucky7]

Hi there! I'm Cata and I play Ginia! Welcome to the game! I'm still largely canonblind to RvB, but Ginia has gotten herself deeply involved with the RvB cast in that she was close friends with Ephemera and then he killed her when she tried to stop him from murdering the rest of the cast.

Ginia is also a nanotech modded child operative that can give the SPARTAN project a run for its money in nightmare fuel. She's got a lot of anger and problems to work out.

I'm enjoying their TDM and was wondering if you want to make it canon?

[evocation]

KASSSS I'M SO EXCITED!!! i'm playing kyna, bellamy blake, and kate bishop so you have OPTIONS

[evasives]

SEVEN FEET TALL

hello i am tomato and i don't know anything about red vs blue except they all have state names but welcome to the game!! i play cassian andor ala rogue one and helena ala orphan black. feral mind sounds so cool what a nifty way to power up!!

[leaderboards]

hello tallest friend, carolina has missed you terribly! (and probably won't ever be able to articulate that, because she has absolutely forgotten how to demand maine hugs and what the fuck are feelings)

i'm so excited to have you joining the game and what a mess the rvb cast already is. i can't wait to play with you properly!

[personalwar]

hi kas, welcome to the game! i remain canonblind to rvb despite the fact that i'm into other parts of rooster teeth, though i've read enough apps and played off of enough characters to have a basic idea!

i'm court and along with soldier: 76 (jack morrison) here, i also play sora from kingdom hearts and i'm one of the mods. i think that jack and maine would get along... if communicating via clipped sentences and grunts counts, anyway!

hope you have a fun time here o7

[itsjiaheng]

hi hello! welcome to the game!!

i'm min and like.. canonblind to 99% of what's on the taken list but your VERY TOL FRIEND sounds super interesting! i only have my oc jongdae in the game right now who is basically kinda dumb and loud and lives in complete denial about his own anger so at the very least i'm confident he could manage to irritate ya boi here if given the chance heheh.

looking forward to seeing you around!!

[preseance]

KASSSS


hello chum i'm glad to see you again in a game!! i'm excited to tag maine too c:

Jen | Sypha Belnades

[servenoevil]

Hey y'all! I'm Jen, a brand new player who thanks to plenty of enabling from ana is bringing in Sypha Belnades from Castlevania!

Sypha is a magician from a world that's got a biiiit of a vampire problem. Just a small one. She comes from a clan called the Speakers, a group of nomadic scholars who maintain an oral tradition and maybe have prophecies from the future? She comes from ye olde europe so all this technology shit is going to be absolutely wild for her. Especially since vampires are usually the ones with the fancy stuff.



Look at that face, isn't she just cute as a button? Don't be fooled, she's a bit of a gremlin who's more than a little impulsive. I'm taking her from the end of season 2 so she's all ready for some fresh adventure.



Sypha's losing all her elemental magic from canon, much to her displeasure, and instead is getting hooked up with Gravity Manipulation in its stead. I'm really looking forward to playing with y'all in the future!

[monomachy]

hi, jen! i'm iola, and i play diana prince/wonder woman from the dceu and nill from the manga DOGS: BULLETS & CARNAGE. i'm super excited to have sypha in game, castlevania is such a good show. i haven't yet seen s3 but it's definitely on my list for the next couple of weeks. welcome to the game!

[evocation]

Jen!! I'm so excited. I hear Sypha is AMAZING and if you want someone for her to mourn her magic with, Kyna's totally got that down. I've also got Kate Bishop and Bellamy Blake running around!

[bloodbathing]

JEEEEEN holy crap we share a game again, IT'S BEEN SO LONG ♥

i just started watching castlevania last night and have no idea who sypha is (yet!), but she sounds fantastic! and what a neat power 👀 i'm gonna catch up quick so i can be ready to thread with her!!

[evasives]

hello!! i have not seen castlevania but gravity manipulation is! such a neat power! i am tomato and i play cassian andor (rogue one) and helena (orphan black), welcome to the game!!

[personalwar]

hi, jen, and welcome!! i'm excited that our castlevania cast is growing. i'm behind on watching it (just started s2 yesterday) but i love sypha already based on what i've seen so far. c:

my name is court and i play soldier: 76/jack morrison (this journal) as well as sora from kingdom hearts (lighthearted) here! i'm also one of the mods. hope you enjoy your stay!

emma ♙ stabigail hobbs

[ex_defenestratings377]

hello pals, emma here bringing you dead brunette number three, abigail hobbs from nbc's hannibal.


this little darling is a sad sack orphan with buckets of trauma and if you don't know anything about hannibal -- hannibal rhymes with cannibal :D (i have an OPT OUT if anyone wants to avoid the whole soylent green is people thing.) luckily, she isn't exactly going to announce this! the other notable thing is that she is missing her left ear and also has a six inch scar on the left side of her throat. interesting.

if you want to chit chat or plot, find me at baleinette#3692 @ discord (preferable) or baleinette @ plurk.

two brunettes with the same dads mikkelsen

jenna ✨ annabeth chase (riordan mythos)

[intellects]

howdy..... pals..... in the neverending saga of 'jenna plays too many mouthy young women with Opinions', here's annabeth chase from the percy jackson series, aka the riordan mythos!


she's a daughter of athena and one of those Girls Who Save The World, so she'll be rip-rarin' to get started... you know, saving the world and stuff. or maybe just going on a global food tour with her boyfriend percival. who knows, honestly. i sure don't.

her power is aerial manipulation which is going to seed as the ml equivalent of bubble boy! she'll be able to seize the air around her, a little bit at a time; with practice, one day, she'll be able to grasp the entire sphere at once. maybe one day she'll also roll down a very steep cliff. it's all up in the air. (ha ha.)

full disclosure, i'm lowkey on hiatus this month so april will Really Be It for me, but i'm still hype! i make terrible choices, y'all know this. you can hit me up on plurk (semicolons) or on discord (quake#2740) whenever!!! ♥

[championofsnark]

just fyi annabeth is my fave character from that series so like A++++

Jessi 💣 John Murphy (The 100)

[feralist]

HI! I'm Jessi, this is Murphy.




He started out as the main antagonist (unless you count Earth and "grounders" aka EaRthLINgs. Then somehow he became everyone's favorite punching bag. Murphy has a dry sense of humor and says things when it's wildly inappropriate. I'm taking him from the end of season 4 begin of 5, because six was just the worst. IDK maybe I'll update him if I actually finish the last two episodes.

As for me, I'm in EST, my plurk is gnomeskull if you wanna add me to plot and see shit that I do, and Uhhhh I'm looking forward to playing with you all!

[championofsnark]

HEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

mina 🗡️ kitty jones

[tombstruck]

hi buddies, it's mina and i'm bringing you kitty jones from the bartimaeus sequence. she'll be joining the ranks as my second character (i'm already here as melisandre from asoiaf).



anyway!! kitty's from a version of early 2000s london currently ruled by asshole magicians, and all this tech is going to blow her mind just a little bit. she's a very angry sixteen year old, and her main problems in life are fighting the government, having very recently watched the rest of the resistance group get murdered, and finding out that her parents were going to turn her over to the law (where treason isn't a super survivable offence). so it's been a rough few days.

c: she would 100% die for you, she's very loyal, and she's gonna have a bit of a time adjusting to a life where she's not constantly agitating the police (... that's not a promise that she'll keep it that way). she's good with a dagger and even better at pickpocketing, and she could use a friend or five. her power is 'materialised guardian' (aka she has a patronus) – she can summon a lil creature that will take one hit for her or a friend of her choosing. side note: if you're a magician, maybe don't tell her immediately.

as always, feel free to add me at nehelenia!

[magicalglowstick]

I NEED THIS CR MINA!!!!

kat ━ percy jackson

[ripstides]

hey meadowlark! i'm kat, returning a second time with percy jackson from approx 490363804958290 books in the riordan mythos. you can reach me via pms or over at talldarkandgay


he's a demigod (son of poseidon) who sustains himself with sarcasm and carbs. he has done all the damn world-saving he can stomach so catch him napping or minding his business while buildings are on fire. ( he wishes! ) he's actually not that bitter. he will jump into shenanigans with only mild grumbling. not having his hydrokinetic powers and the plethora of others that come with it are going to put him in a Mood. i've given him terrakinesis here as a tie to one aspect of poseidon's domain of power and he's basically going to start off being able to move dust. he's so stoked. housekeeping anyone??? no?

i don't imagine him sitting on his hands for long because boredom and bad impulse control.

[intellects]

mind ya dang business percival

Buttercup | Cassandra Pentaghast

[stabsbooks]

Hello! My name is Buttercup and I'm bringing in Cassandra Pentaghast from Dragon Age Inquisition! Cassandra loves stabbing things, punching trees, and reading terrible romance novels. She's a warrior and was the Right Hand of the Divine (basically assistant to Pope of the Chantry in her world) before Everything Went Wrong (TM). She's passionate about truth and justice and is from one of those Medieval Canons so she's gonna have to get used to the whole technofuture thing.

Her power is Faith Inspiration and will require cooperation with other players to be usable at all, so please hit up her permissions page to read about it, ask any questions, and opt in!

[bivariant]

slides over and steeples my fingers

hello buttercup, i'm pax and i heard you say "faith inspiration", which i will be OPTING THE HECK INTO ASAP.

i play wei wuxian from that popular chinese novel and, arguably more impt, ajewen cheris from the machineries of empire series which ( i don't know how familiar you are with it ) has an entire empire/society built around CONSENSUS REALITY, where the basis premise is "what everyone believes in, is reality"...... which means being really really interested in cassandra's faith inspiration in the long term for moi. count me into supporting any long term goals you've got with her WOW!
