JULY CR MEME

> JULY CR MEME

Surprise, it's July! 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!

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

◉ The OOC planning post for our July event will be going up on Monday, so keep an eye out for it!

◉ The Arrival Log is up over here, covering the worldwide response to the earthquake that happens at the end of our event prelude log.

◉ For a rundown of everything that's happened so far in game, check out our The Story So Far page. This guy is your big ctrl+f friend.

◉ 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!

kaye / nathan lowell

> PLAYER


NAME & PRONOUNS: kaye (she/her)
CONTACT: PM! or [plurk.com profile] virginiawoolf
AREAS OF INTEREST: i tend to plurk a lot about, uh, i mean i complain a lot about my job! i'm usually pretty quiet on there, but i plurk a lot about music and ocs and general nonsense.


> CHARACTER

NAME: nathan lowell
CANON: original character
JOURNAL: [personal profile] acheless
POWER: enhanced senses! right now he's fucking mr miyagi (accelerated perception) but he's not gonna be enthused about trying to work on that. sorry, mom.
JOB: HE NEEDS A JOB, jesus christ, i'm a brand spanking newbie and i have no idea what i should do for his job.
PLANS FOR THE NEXT MONTH: mostly to get him settled in! CR first, big game cause later, since nathan is coming out of spending two years in sort-of a magical prison being relatively immortal and not saying more than ten words to a normal human being. he's gonna be safehoused until he's allowed to let go, and then, uhhhh. the world's a mystery!
AREAS OF INTEREST: he's good with a Cause, but if your character literally knows anything about magic, i'm going to need to chase some cr!
HANDWAVED CR OPPORTUNITIES: are you around the safehouse? were you one of the Displaced were around red wings? you were probably scowled at by some guy who did not give a fuck about his shitty clothes, what an asshole.
OVERALL GOALS: not much at present! just getting him situated.
ANYTHING ELSE:

he hates everythiiiing.

did I hear you say Magic

additionally red wings will hire literally anyone so if he needs even just a temporary gig while he gets himself on his feet, gestures our way

is there a slot open for MAN WHO DOES NOTHING BUT STARE THREATENINGLY AT VARIOUS PEOPLE, because.

also, yes, magic, because ultimately i'm thinking nathan is going to want to form some sort of hodge-podge a team while he goes around and throws a tantrum to ask things like hey is your magic broken too and on a scale of one to 100, how much do you miss it?

no, nathan, work isn't a place for indulging in your hobbies

hahahah ideal, jump to stephen smiling knowingly, having nostalgic flashbacks to chestburning himself to collapse back in the days when trying to access your original powers hurt a lot, watching the next generation pick up the flame.

I could not be more pleased for another magical over 35, I'll be on my way to grab some cr asap!!

brave of you to imply his hobby isn't jerking off sadly to the memory of old playboys, dr strange

(also i'm begging you to please include that story icly at some stage to just cut nathan off at the pass like "well what the fuck do i do if it isn't some dramatic show of self-hatred through extreme exhaustion and committment to the bit"?)

i look forward to it! c: let's get some bonding going on. they can talk about

butterscotch candies.

nailed it.

as u are well aware i exist on ur dick at all times because i have no restraint

however

it occurs to me that they are both self loathing assholes with a love of porno mags, and also dean has done el recreational magic because spells etc so it could Come Up along with all those magical creatures he regularly shoots to death

gestures vaguely at the abundance of dudes i am just assaulting you with

i hate everything about the way you worded this, fyi

but yeah! belatedly realizing their areas of overlap might make them aggressively good friends in an very american-man sort of way, i.e. emotional security does not exist here. also lol at the idea that dean is like I SHOOT MAGICAL CREATURES and nathan is like what the fuck i didn't even know that was an option i had to babysit mine. anyway, i'm on board!

now i have to go google "70's playboy magazine covers" :/

I do not apologize take me for the way I am motherfucker

but yeah I was like wAIT A SECOND when I thought about it, they could def get along famously at first and then maybe shit get real and they can talk about tragic terrible something something past bullshit, whatever.

Anyway yeah shoot 'em bro so much easier

i hate everything about who you choose to be!!

but yeah, i think it tracks, there's an opportunity for bro-heavy friendship here for sure. blah blah blah father-son problems, which mildly homicidal guy whose entire life is swept up in magical creatures doesn't have 'em.

Kass probably scowled back, tbh, if you're interested in trying to be an asshole with someone who doesn't really give a fuck anymore.

mutual scowldom, the breakfast of champions. people who don't give a fuck are his people! in so much that he has people. would put her on his radar, at least, especially if they're safehoused together?

also i'm a little canon-blind, but on a scale of one to ten, how down is kass for punching strangers in the face?

She's pretty down for it, in general.

i have to workshop my idea a little after i familiarize myself with the exact activation of powers in-game, but nathan's a glutton for punishment, and i feel like he would be the exact kind of dude to ask a total stranger who he's shared like, two whole glares with to punch him in the face! (i may wildcard this later if you're down for the sheer tragedy here.)

omg please do this.

She'd just make sure this wasn't something sexual. Just in case, she's met men like that before.
