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!

riku (kingdom hearts)

[inherited]

> CHARACTER

NAME: Riku
CANON: Kingdom Hearts
JOURNAL: inherited
POWER: Shadow transmutation (upgrades: turn shadow water into a potion, create shadow clones that can go out, seek information, and collapse into an element, sending the information back to him).
JOB: Riku is a trainee in the police force! I definitely want CR here, especially since there are plotting opportunities that I can't take on (since I'm a mod).
SUMMARY OF LAST MONTH: He got canon updated! He went bye bye.
PLANS FOR THE NEXT MONTH:

♥ I did a post with him here! It involves some homework stuff and a linked Arrival Guide. He's trying to recruit people to the Welcome Committee.
♥ I'd like some fresh CR with him, too! I'm going to use the Welcome Committee to work on this where I can.

AREAS OF INTEREST:

♥ Getting his fellow kids to go to school without actually Going to School. I plan on doing a post for this in the near future!

♥ His personal goal is to find out what's Wrong with this world. He's interested in a lot of dream business and figuring out what's going on there, and thus finding the keyhole and (nonsense Kingdom Hearts business).

♥ He's joined the police force! His goal is to find a way to protect people and be a good dude.

♥ Find a way to get everyone home (who wants to go)!

♥ He sympathizes with El (because El did some Bad Shit in the past) and is his number one fan. El probably didn't agree to this. I have not had him join Morningstar yet.

♥ Riku is extremely evenhanded and good at seeing multiple points of view. I'm really interested in more opportunities where he can butt up against someone else's point of view and then work to understand it.

♥ He's also good for talking through redemption arcs or understanding where someone's coming from. Or seeing how someone could be redeemed if someone else doesn't understand.

♥ He's also just Chill, but in a way where it's forcibly so. He's mastered it in a lot of ways, but his mind is constantly threatening to undermine his chill and find a way to eat at it. Want to learn … positive … and productive reframing and rethinking tools? Kingdom Hearts made an entire game to ensure Riku learned those great CBT strategies. I wish I was kidding (not that it's phrased that way).

HANDWAVED CR OPPORTUNITIES:

♥ Sparring!

♥ Keeping active!

♥ The homework club is probably not fun to RP out, but we can make it happen!

♥ Find Riku alongside the river. He likes water a lot.

OVERALL GOALS: More friendships and more about Riku being more comfortable in his skin while challenging who he was before and who he is now. Riku is, generally, in a very good place mentally, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have flaws or blindspots, especially when it comes to his friends. Sometimes his chill is forced, too. That said, I'm planning on canon updating him in the near future to when he's spent a year depressing some pretty bad feelings.
ANYTHING ELSE:
