JUNE CR MEME

> JUNE CR MEME

Surprise, it's June! We've got some new players coming in and we're nearing cap, so it's a great time to kickstart some new CR or work on something you've already got in the works.

So, here we go!

◉ We just had a pretty involved event, so make sure that you check out the Aftermath post if you haven't yet!

◉ Here's the June calendar, which provides a quick rundown of the month.

◉ The Arrival Log is up over here, though it provides prompts and opportunities for all of the Displaced, as Morningstar is hard at work. Go take a look!

◉ Check out our Setting Page for any ideas you might need about the world at large!

◉ We also recommend that you look over our JOBS PAGE and LOCATION PAGE to get the brain moving. As a quick note: everyone can add and create new locations for New Amsterdam (and develop other megacities)! We'll always review them and reach out to you if any changes need to be made.

Now, the form!

> PLAYER

NAME & PRONOUNS: din (they/them)
CONTACT: morning star#3715 on discord and famigerato
AREAS OF INTEREST: Uh! I work for a nonprofit in a profession people generally don't get without an in-depth explanation, so let's just say I am a fancy therapist who focuses on behavior. Anyway, as you can guess, I am super into behavior and psychology. If you guessed that my favorite is abnormal psychology, you're not wrong! I listen to a lot of podcasts and know way too much about Mesopotamia. I read Old English at parties. I like to guide people through museums in my spare time (fun fact: I was in a volunteer docent). Pretty big into art history generally and can sort of read/listen to French semi-fluently. Sort of. I play a lot of Animal Crossing, Zelda, and Pokemon. I am openly out at work, so I get to function as an advocate in ways I didn't think I would be able to also. Uhhhh. I have been known to talk about Persona 3, Evangelion, Devilman (the og is my fave), and MXTX canons (particularly the one my boy is from). Really enthusiastic and difficult to make anything not chill. I am extremely dry or lean into horrible puns. Love me a ton of horror movies and sci-fi. If you like to chat a lot, I can usually keep up no problem. Have been described as: "intense, but in a good way."

> CHARACTER

NAME: (Courtesy name:) Lan Wangji (birth name: Lan Zhan, title: Hanguang-Jun).
CANON: Mo Dao Zu Shi or The Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation.
JOURNAL: wangxian
POWER: Truth Compulsion or Veracity! This is (hopefully) going to take another branch soon as well.
JOB: He is a part-time art teacher online and a part-time receptionist at a local gallery in New Amsterdam. He also plays live music at Red Wings on Monday nights with Wei Wuxian. He also is secretly Meadowlark's equivalent to Banksy at the moment.
SUMMARY OF LAST MONTH: Lan Wangji participated in the media revolt against the UNA by producing temporary murals and graffiti. He also probably was out there at the facility fighting monsters. Please feel free to recognize him in either one of these positions as you please.
PLANS FOR THE NEXT MONTH: To continue with his media revolt, largely. I want to see if I can't trigger his power update somehow or another as well. I plan on playing a lot of catch-up overall, kind of like how Lan Wangji intends to catch-up with his organization of the apartment in New Amsterdam due to the sudden increase in greenery.
AREAS OF INTEREST: Lan Wangji is super interested in the art movement and plans on trying to continue encouraging public dissent of the UNA. Lan Wangji is also super interested in the shrines and anything related to assisting others. So, no task is too small for him! No chaos is too insignificant to draw his attention.
HANDWAVED CR OPPORTUNITIES: Feel free to bump into him throughout New Amsterdam and New Beijing in general. He works out of New Amsterdam at the gallery and also has classes online that he runs, so maybe he's their professor! Who knows. He likes to visit green bars and is more-or-less a vegetarian too. He plays at Red Wings, as mentioned, so you can see him playing music there on Monday nights. He likes to walk over taking public transport too. Depending on where they are, they might be able to catch him practicing forms/meditating/etc. on the roof of his apartment or playing his guqin.
OVERALL GOALS: Get him recognized as a political activist through his art and extend his powers. Also have him help out folks in need more often and encourage the growth of his partners' investments. RIP.
ANYTHING ELSE:

[realists]

i did a little shout out to his banksy art HERE, silena is very charmed by street art as a new yorker raised in an artsy district

she definitely chinhands at the bar while he plays at red wings

[reillumination]

OMG.... hi it is still me i have to click on that in a sec but i am apologies for my slow but gestures very tiredly at life in the last two weeks haha. i am playing catch-up, so i plan to hit your tag to his log shortly!!

but please feel free to bully him, the grumpy and soft man that he is underneath all that.

[wangxian]

i adore silena, thank you so much for this gift. i will cherish it. but, that sounds like a fantastic start to a hunt and meet, if that's something silena is into. lan wangji is an incredibly honest man and can't lie (as much as he can just refuse to answer lmfao), so. :9

[chocolateries]

she and wwx were talking about dream stuff too bc silena is used to weird dreams lmao so i think there is a lot of ways to hurl them at each other; red wings, art, dreams, etc etc

[wangxian]

OH TRUE, i keep forgetting to insert dream training in here. but, yes, there's so many good and delicious ways to do so and i plan on doing some kind of open log (probably) with lwj this week in order to get the ball rolling on a few more things. wwx is the chattiest of his partners, so i mean... rip he's a quiet, seemingly impassive man. he's secretly a softie, though.

👀

[reillumination]

hello this is din i'm just too lazy to log out now that i've logged in

also yes lwj needs to finally meet him... when you smack up your tls, i'll see what i can't touch or wildcard you?

[kill7]

for sure!!!!!

[evasives]

so mr meadowlark banksy cassian is apparently helping organize counter propaganda against the una this seems like a good team up post simulation

[wangxian]

oh hell yes i agree entirely he can be your graphic designer for the movement basically but also he may or may not have some good thoughts on how people interact with each other politically and a very strong moral compass - an added bonus!! i was just mentioning i'll probably throw a log up somewhere at some point this week to get the ball rolling/help facilitate a bunch of things since all lwj's lil feelers are so varied that it feels silly to try to put them on a tl.

[evasives]

yes pls brainstorm!!! this is 100% the job for a team. i will keep an eye out for the log!! but also!! can i still tag your painting log from the event?? if it is too late no worries we will just shuffle along to the next propaganda venture too
