Character name: John (aka Homelander, but he doesn't go by that in this particular AU) AU role: Cardinal Character History
Plotting ideas:
• Party buddies! People to enjoy good food with, get wasted with, watch the arena with, or generally just be awful with! Mostly other people in Parliament but can be anyone if you're cool enough.
• Political relationships among Parliament, business relationships among the Congregation.
• If anyone actually wants to be in his totally-not-cult-like-at-all fanclub I'm down.
• Current/previous lovers (casual sex for the most part, especially if you're willing to dominate him)
• People who have seen his darker side, either because they also like to commit atrocities alongside him or because they had the misfortune of being his target. I want to lean into his villain side, so let's play some dark shit! (Some random ideas for this: staging secret 'mini-arena' fights to the death between two randos just as a fun little bet with someone else from Parliament, torture for information or fun, general abuse of power over the regular population, some mind manipulation shenanigans with his power...anything really, those are just some ideas).
• People he can use and manipulate...and on the flipside, people who want to use and manipulate him. If you're Carrion or higher and can convince him that you like him even a little bit he will be putty in your hands because he is so desperate to be liked, have fun.
• A rival among the Congregation or the Kestrels! I'm a sucker for a good rivalry okay. Just someone who is immune to his charms and completely hates his guts. Would love to get him a little roughed up too.
• Anything really! Any established CR is loved so if you have an idea come at me.
