| > CR MEME |
Hi Larkers! Welcome to the first Meadowlark CR meme. We know things are very fledgling right now, but hopefully everyone's settled enough in our starting setting to begin considering future plans and character interactions they'd still like to seek out. We've tried to formulate the meme to support this, but feel free to adapt it however works best for you! |

TIMEZONE & TAGGING HABITS: EST, usually at least once a day, barring RL circumstances
INTERESTS: video games, crocheting, cooking, gardening, html coding, dogs
ANYTHING ELSE:
CANON: Overwatch
CANON POINT: a nebulous period after the events of Rise and Shine, when she's traveled to Nepal to test her field equipment (as stated in her journal).
POWER: Thermal manipulation. Mei can heat things up to the point of burning, or freeze things solid, with any temperature in between.
CHARACTER SUMMARY: A genius climatologist with a tragic story of being abandoned and forgotten in Antarctica and her whole team dying from malfunctioning cryostasis. Despite this, Mei is a bubbly, positive person who is still trying to go on alone to collect old Overwatch climate data from abandoned Ecopoints.
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE: Whether or not she can hold on to her positivity, her genius mind coming up with cool stuff (though please allow me some handwaving and vagueness because Mei's a genius and I'm not), her dealing with the tragedy she's faced.
GOALS IN GAME: In addition to the aspects above, getting the hang of her new power and making friends.
CURRENT HABITS: She probably wakes up at the same time every day, showers, dresses, brushes teeth, and has a cup of tea if that's available. If not, then whatever they do for breakfast there. Beyond that, I think she just tries to understand their network system and all that.
DESIRED CR: Anything?
UNDESIRED CR: Not interested in making her into a punching bag or doormat for any other character.

TIMEZONE & TAGGING HABITS: GMT+13, sporadic!!
INTERESTS: Comics, rp, Les Mis, Star Wars, HP, I have a lot. My plurk is generally rp mixed with whatever I'm watching/reading at the time.
CANON: Marvel Comics
CANON POINT: So Norman Osborne runs the Avengers and Asgard is a floating city above earth and Osborne wants to start some trouble and Thor has literally just seen Asgard crash down in flames and he's sad about it.
POWER: weather control: storms
CHARACTER SUMMARY: He's a tall, often grumpy, norse god. Except that all the god part has been turned off so he's tall, grumpy and norse.
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE: 1. Finding his limitations as a non-god ie: injury, needing to do all the human things like sleep and eat boo, boring.
2. Figure out how he can help people as he is.
3. Esp. in the safehouse: dealing poorly with his anger and trying to figure out how to manage that better.
GOALS IN GAME: 1. Open a gym. 2. Feed himself and other people. 3. Take revenge on whoever did this to them.
CURRENT HABITS: Early morning snacks. Late morning snacks. Afternoon snacks. Dinner snacks. Midnight snacks. He's just always eating stuff okay. Also: someone please remind him that towels are compulsory in the showers. When he's not doing the above he's working out somewhere doing pressups and lifting things and exercising away his feelings.
DESIRED CR: People who don't believe in helping others, because you're wrong. People who do believe in helping others, let's team up. People who want to get buff like Thor, he will help. Sexy times???? He's a mess but who says no to that.
UNDESIRED CR: Loki. No Loki CR. Get out. No one talk to that loser.

POWER: emotional healing -- info + permissions
CHARACTER SUMMARY: a victorian witch who has been hunted by lucifer and dracula throughout her life. a good person, an incredibly kind friend and fiercely loyal
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE: accepting her new found life, learning new things (skills/knowledge update), accidentally working with her power + empathy bond

TIMEZONE & TAGGING HABITS: PST, and my tagging habits in about a week are going to be early morning, evening, and mostly on weekends.
INTERESTS: I’m really into JRPGs, my favorites include Tales of Berseria, the Alchemists of Arland Atelier triology, Odin Sphere, Valkyria Chronicles, Trails/Kiseki. I’m also a fan of Detroit: Become Human and dabble into Overwatch at times. And reading mystery novels. And math. A lot of math.
CANON: Zero Escape
CANON POINT: 9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors – true end
POWER: Item Mending and Restoring
CHARACTER SUMMARY: A sweet girl who got into unfortunate circumstances. She acts like the ideal woman, but in reality she’s really not. That said, she does want to be friends with everyone, but she also has plans for her own future she’d like to meet and will do anything to meet her goals. She also has a thing for this one guy in her canon and is pretty much obsessed with him.
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE:
1. How she handles being in meadowlark in general as a slice of life thing bordering trying to figure out how to help and how that will help her get back home, if possible.
2. Talking about her love life (lol)
3. Working out this newfound power of hers that’s definitely not science fiction/in the realm of quantum physics? And if it is that is totally fucking cool
GOALS IN GAME: Right now it’s just to make some friends to confide it (and potentially manipulate) and have her get used to her powers. She’s also really insecure because she lost her ‘informant’ since she can’t access the Morphogenetic Field. As a result, she’s really lost about what to do other than “I need to get home”.
CURRENT HABITS: She mostly keeps to herself, but she’s probably friendly with everyone and tries to check up on them with a smile. 😊 Eats three meals a day, probably offers to cook once in a while. Trying to show off her ideal woman façade.
DESIRED CR: Lmfao anyone. Akane is a very dominant personality that she hides behind a demure mask, so anyone that could potentially lure that side of her out. Also anyone to talk quantum physics and aliens and alternate timelines and all that shit. And the Titanic.
Also people she can make innuendos at and pretend she was making a purely innocent remark.
UNDESIRED CR: I want all the CR, really. I’m pretty flexible and I’m willing to do a lot of things if just asked. The only thing I don’t want is her to be manipulated to the point she's under the control of another character, which would be difficult to do anyway.
ANYTHING ELSE:

I think there's a lot of room for CR between these two because from what I can tell, a lot of the metaphysical stuff within ZE kind of lines up with SnK...somehow. Which I find hilarious since they're such largely different series otherwise. It's mostly due to how there's something that connects everyone that transcends space and time - basically, because his experiences are so niche, he never had anyone to confide in about this within his own canon, but I feel Akane would be a good way to open that can of worms.

TIMEZONE & TAGGING HABITS: EST, I always tag back within 24 hours, usually earlier than that depending on what's going on. I might occasionally have things that interrupt this, but for the most part it's gonna be within those constraints.
INTERESTS: cyberpunk, industrial music, cute things. a lot of things.
CANON: WATCH_DOGS 2
CANON POINT: The game's over, the main bad guy's been beaten, lots of wacky adventures were had, but there's always still so many things left to hack!
POWER: unnoticeability
CHARACTER SUMMARY: Wrench is a hacker/anarchist/engineer/demolitions guy who's usually pretty fun to be around. He might also be kind of terrifying to be around. Right now, he's not super fun to be around, because he kiiinda needs the mask to be all outgoing and stuff.
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE: 1. SMASH THE STATE. I definitely want him getting involved in whatever weird underground stuff he can.
2. BUILDING SHIT. It's the future what future tech can he fuck around with???
3. DISCOVERING THAT WEIRD MAGIC SHIT. Who's he gonna make not see him first? How will he best fuck around with it?
GOALS IN GAME: So far, get the hell out of here. He'll figure out more along the way.
CURRENT HABITS: Mainly, he's doing the best he can to hide his face and avoid other people. It's not necessarily going so well.
DESIRED CR: Maybe some fellow hacker type buddies. Or anarchists. Or anyone who wants to maybe loudly get the fuck out of here. Or anyone!
UNDESIRED CR: Bring it all on, man.

INTERESTS: Baseball, cats, Voltron, cooking, The 100, Star Wars, Kingdom Hearts, Overwatch, Marvel Comics, etc.
CANON: Voltron: Legendary Defender
CANON POINT: End of season 6, just as the paladins are preparing to return home to Earth.
POWER: Reactive adaptation
CHARACTER SUMMARY: Keith is an orphaned "emo" loner who was always looking for a place to belong, and Shiro initially gave that to him when he was recruited to the Galaxy Garrison to be a pilot. He's gone through a lot of losses and has ended up not developing the best social skills in the process, but he wants nothing more than to do right and be a hero (though he wouldn't articulate it that way). The thing is, he's prickly, bad at people, and sometimes quick to anger. He's also kind of a badass space ninja half-alien guy. He's recently taken up the helm of leading Team Voltron.
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE: Leadership, getting to know people better/connecting with people outside of his situation, playing hero.
GOALS IN GAME: I want to get Keith onto some kind of fighting force, but I haven't decided where yet. It might be Morningstar if they're accepting recruits. I do want him to go off into space and get a feel for how things are out there.
CURRENT HABITS: Working out regularly, waking up early every morning, keeping his area tidy.
DESIRED CR: People who will push him out of his comfort zone. Also, I'm a big fan of rivals to friends, or prickly people to buddies, at least with Keith. It's a lot of fun.
UNDESIRED CR: This is less "undesired" and more "Keith isn't good for it"—he's not really a sketchy kind of guy, so he won't be getting into any sketchy schemes. I'm also not looking for a ship for him right now.
ANYTHING ELSE:
CANON: The 100
CANON POINT: 5x1, right before she hears Madi.
POWER: Life steal.
CHARACTER SUMMARY: Clarke is deceptive in how she comes across. She's stiff and uptight, albeit someone who's willing to do what good she has to do and help people with medical concerns. However, she's unlike her mother (an actual trained doctor); Clarke is capable of some very destructive things and is very willing to commit some really atrocious acts for what she perceives to be the greater good. She believes she has to carry the burden of these actions so the people she cares about don't have to, but sometimes that means she's a touch too ruthless. Or very ruthless. Really, Clarke is like a blunt force that's willing to knock down anything along the way.
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE: Her ruthlessness, developing some big scheme for some great purpose that likely fucks up a lot of shit, dealing with what it means to not constantly be at war or having to kill people (or falling back into those habits because she thinks that's the only answer).
GOALS IN GAME: Clarke will see herself as some kind of leader or organizer of the current group, which ………. I am down for that being met with some "What the fuck?" It's a side effect of her situation back home, plus her control issues. Playing with that is my initial goal. She doesn't know how to live in any kind of normal world, so that'll be her other focus.
CURRENT HABITS: Checking on people's wounds, being uncomfortable, wishing paper still existed.
DESIRED CR: People to look after, people to butt heads with over how to go about stuff.
UNDESIRED CR: Nothing comes to mind just yet!

INTERESTS: marvel, star wars, noveling, teaching, pokemon go
ANYTHING ELSE:
CANON: star wars
CANON POINT: the end of the last jedi
POWER: gravity manipulation (think minor levitation/anchoring)
CHARACTER SUMMARY: rey is an orphan turned scavenger turned jedi. despite having close to the worst life you can possibly imagine and having every reason to have turned out to be an asshole, she is still idealistic and full of hope and compassion for others. she's very forgiving, but also very blunt and stubborn and action-oriented, so she can come across and brusque, sarcastic, and short-tempered because she's used to not having to cooperate with others.
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE: (1) rey dealing with the loss of the connection to the Force could be a big downer for her, (2) rey learning how to navigate lasting social relationships after a lifetime alone, (3) learning to focus on the good she can do here instead of feeling bad about the fact that she can't do any good for the resistance right now while she feels they're counting on her
GOALS IN GAME: fun !! gravity !! powers !!
CURRENT HABITS: rey's presently injured so she's trying to recover and take it easy, but she's restless so she's probably annoyingly persistent in trying to do things herself and crawling up people's asses.
DESIRED CR: anything, but especially fellow powered people who think they've "lost" their powers and haven't noticed their new ones to bond with that experience over. people who need some optimism in their lives. cynics who might be right because this world sucks so she can ... have that optimism tested. i'm open to things like corruptive influences too.

INTERESTS: Overwatch, books (sci fi/fantasy)
CANON: Terra Ignota
CANON POINT: Sniper just headshot a god and started World War IV! Been a crazy month.
POWER: Charm
CHARACTER SUMMARY: Sniper is a highly trained assassin from a very different near-Utopian version of future Earth with bans on both gender and public discussion religion. Their family has been responsible for keeping world peace through calculated assassinations for generations. They'e idealistic but very cunning, used to maneuvering high-level world politics. Very energetic, outgoing, and will be actively curious about people—Mostly so they can get a feel for everyone's talents and capacities. They're coming out of some chaotic, world-changing events and is accordingly kind of high strung right now.
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE: 1) Their ability to relate and build relationships with new people 2) Their identity away from their own world which has totally defined them up to this point. 3) How far they're willing to go to secure a way home.
GOALS IN GAME: I have no goals of my own right now; Sniper will be focused on getting money and influence and figuring out how the gang got here. They will probably be going into sex work to build up capitol.
CURRENT HABITS: They work out like clockwork despite the brken wrist and help out in the kitchen a lot.
DESIRED CR:
MURDER FRIENDS!!!But no, Sniper is drawn to people who will do anything for their principals. They're also drawn to people with the capacity for violence. They'll want a line on someone good with tech.UNDESIRED CR: Can't think of anything right now.

TIMEZONE & TAGGING HABITS: i try to get to tags at least once a day.
INTERESTS: vidya games! bioshock, fate, witcher, nier, overwatch, fortnite, metal gear solid, etc.
CANON: witcher
CANON POINT: witcher ending of witcher 3!
POWER: her powerset is blood magic!
here's what i planned to have that include:
1. Healing Blood
2. Portal Creation through her own blood (range decided by mods)
3. Blood Sword creation — using her own blood to summon a sword
-- right now, for growth purposes, she only has access to healing blood.
CHARACTER SUMMARY: she's a disaster bi who finds herself being pursued for her ~powerful blood~ in her canon. She's pretty smart mouthed, willing to dive into things, and most importantly, awkwardly make friends. :/
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE: her flightiness, her thirst, and her lone wolf nature.
GOALS IN GAME: to learn more about the world and why her powers don't work, to find someone she can trust, to keep on the move (old habits die hard)
CURRENT HABITS: pacing, people watching, awkwardly conversing with people, and falling asleep sitting up.
DESIRED CR: i'll not bore you with "everyone" but that's the truth. here's some eventual cr!
° people who can do dirty jobs with her
° people all about using morningstar to their advantage
° people who can hold their liquor
° eventual... one night stands....
° people to baby her when she's being a headstrong idiot
° people who can call her out on her selfishness / flighty nature
° people from fantasy worlds that can bond over all the new tech, even if ciri has some experience in it
° girlfriends she can protect
° girls who don't take shit
° girls to crush on
° also dumb boys to crush on too why not
UNDESIRED CR: what the fuck is that?

TIMEZONE & TAGGING HABITS: ast, usually one or two steady rounds a day when my life isn't hectic.
INTERESTS: video games, space, art, uhhhhh comics, 80s synthwave, laughing at myself, et cetera.
CANON: detroit: become human.
CANON POINT: post-game, good end.
POWER: compartmentalization. briefest example: if he's experiencing pain, he can store it away and deal with it later. works with all sorts of things, like emotions. which is going to come in handy for him, considering the fact that he's just been turned human.
CHARACTER SUMMARY: he's an awkward loser of an investigative prototype android, now given a meat-sack body. he tries to do the best he can in any given scenario while going violently overboard most of the time, takes crazy risks for profit, and has a penchant for getting really annoying. on the plus side, he's polite when his conversational partner is, he's punctual, and is really very amicable. if you think of him as a police dog who's trained to be serious and persistent but just enjoys pleasing others for validation, you're doing it right.
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE: his new autonomy as a deviant/"human" and becoming his own man, his life outside of duty and exploring his inability to let things go, the distrust he has in himself and his self-esteem.
GOALS IN GAME: he needs friends so badly and he's on the path to a few, but mostly i just want to settle him in and build some strong cr. right now he's coping with his new human body and really could use all the help he could get. people he can rely on for help in those areas would be amazing. police work would be hilarious but him ending up a fugitive of the law would be a great turn of events. accidentally winding up an sjw for androids and trying to defend them is probable. other than that, he'll have no idea what to do with himself and will probably end up a hobo. thank you for giving him morals, hank and markus.
CURRENT HABITS: dealing with hunger by trying different foods in small quantities, walking around... a lot..., keeping up good hygiene because human bodies are insanely weird and ooze various chemicals, asking embarrassing questions that everyone'll be exposed to, being a general nuisance, being roped into the children's games because he's a pushover, studying the place they've ended up in... nerd stuff.
DESIRED CR: anyone and everyone right now. a cop-out answer, i know, but we've only just begun!
UNDESIRED CR: nada.

CONTACT:
TIMEZONE & TAGGING HABITS: EST. Been trying to reply immediately to every tag I get, but if it's not immediate it should be done within a day.
INTERESTS: This is my weakest section. I guess I like video games. The Witcher 3's been consuming me, as have its books. I tend to like monster stories.
ANYTHING ELSE:
CANON: Attack on Titan.
CANON POINT: Right after what's been called the Marley arc. Just got home from the start of a world war and was thrown into prison almost immediately. As of his canon point, he's still in there, brooding.
POWER: Regeneration. He heals super quick. I'm not very imaginative. The crux is that even though it works regardless of what he does, he can make it even faster if he expends blood. I was a little inspired by Bloodborne here.
CHARACTER SUMMARY: You know those kinds of villains that show up out of nowhere, threaten the entire world, and it's up to the good heroes from every nation across the planet to band together in order to show him justice? That's Eren. In his series he's basically holding the button that could obliterate the face of the earth and everyone wants him dead. Though I assure you, he's good company.
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE: His ability to handle pressure and keep his composure even in the most dire of situations (because God knows he didn't have that before). His willingness to do great evils for the sake of friends, and seeing if that still exists in a world without them. Mostly, though, how he's going to handle being torn from his home after having done irredeemable deeds in order to protect said home (note: he's fucking pissed).
GOALS IN GAME: Get better acquainted with modern weaponry. Learning how to fight more effectively will be his number one priority. Whatever comes after that will probably be a result of the situations he's put in.
CURRENT HABITS: Sitting on his bed and brooding. Just about 24/7. Whatever else there is is only what's necessary: eating, cleaning, etc.
DESIRED CR: I'll take what I can get, I generally just like having CR in general. But for Eren particularly...
-People who have had comparatively normal lives. He'll be interested and, depending, jealous. A normal life free of his history is something he's always wanted, but he knows he'll never get.
-People who he can scare. He can be incredibly imposing at times and doesn't mind excessive use of force - hell, he even prefers it - I'd like someone to witness that and just be, understandably, bothered. Maybe have an argument or two. Or three.
-People who he can see the good in. This is probably very cliche, but he's old and grumpy, he's seen enough violence for several lifetimes, and easily forgets that there's good in the world. Knowing that there's decent folk even here would make life a little easier. Though he'll probably end up using them. Like always.
UNDESIRED CR: Not interested in having him be anyone's subordinate, or anything in that vein. Besides that, I'm up for anything.
ANYTHING ELSE: I don't have any decent SnK .gifs. Take this accurate representation of his mental state instead.
no subject
iii didn't put up a toplevel on the log though, so unless you did i gotta figure something out. lemme know if there's somewhere you'd like to have this heartwarming reunion! admittedly i've been dealing with some health shit this week so i haven't gotten very far in general, so i'm open to pretty much whatever!

INTERESTS: cats
CANON: Attack on Titan
CANON POINT: End of the uprising arc, which means they just successfully overthrew the government and crowned a teenage girl the new queen. It'll be fine.
POWER: Ghost physiology, which I definitely did not get from hitting random a bunch of times on the superpowers wiki
CHARACTER SUMMARY: Tiny neurotic asshole who is actually Not a Bad Dude, I Swear. Notorious for being extremely good at killing things and having zero tolerance for dirt. Not a people person at all but values human life greatly. Says a lot of bad words.
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE: Life outside the military, adapting to huge technological advances, having friends who aren't dead (for now)
GOALS IN GAME: Maybe settling into a lifestyle that doesn't involve murder
CURRENT HABITS: Probably not really talking to people, sleeping like three hours a night, showering on the regular (of course), being crabbier than usual because what the fuck is happening, generally being a hermit to the extent that that's possible in a safehouse
DESIRED CR: People who are aggressively positive or happy because he's grouchy, people who are also grouchy that he can be grouchy with, and really anything in between tbh
UNDESIRED CR: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

TIMEZONE & TAGGING HABITS: kst (gmt+9), i try to empty my inbox at least once a day.
INTERESTS: star wars, gaming, novelling/the writing craft, whatever book i'm reading at the time (i have a soft spot for fairy tale retellings, recently), true crime and recently got into voltron (so rip me, i guess). in general my timeline is a mix of rp stuff and gaming and/or whatever book or show i'm into at the time. or adam driver's face.
ANYTHING ELSE:
CANON: star wars
CANON POINT: post-tlj
POWER: pyrokinesis; currently it's manifesting as the worst case of sweaty palms imaginable i.e when he gets stressed his temperature elevates, and anything he's handling at the time gets mildly scalded.
CHARACTER SUMMARY: fucked off child of legacy that decided to run away and join the dark side. kylo "it's not a phase mom, honest" ren has recently killed his master and seized control of the military junta he'd been acting as an enforcer for, and we're all eagerly waiting to see just how his management style works out, since his big thing right now is being just like his grandfather but better.
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE: 1. the loss of the force, which is going to hit him hard since it's essentially like the loss of a sense or a limb; 2. his ability to adapt to the new setting and status quo and figure out just who he is independent of the power that seems to have defined him since infancy, and 3. learning how to deal with people in general since they're all in the same boat.
GOALS IN GAME: figuring out just where and when they are, why his powers don't work and how to reverse that, figuring out who took them and why
and hurting them very badly, getting home, learning how to control this fun new power and not set the curtains on fire every time he has a bad hair day. he's also pretty damned curious about morningstar and just what their deal is.CURRENT HABITS: taking it as easy as he'll allow himself (which is to say, not very) so there's probably a lot of pacing and wandering the safe-house, doing his best to map out the layout. midnight kitchen raids and figuring out how to look after his ear, since hearing loss on top of everything else would kind of suck. trying to figure out just what the hell this implant is and how to use it.
DESIRED CR: since the game's just opened, i'm really open to everything. though, hey, someone that can teach him how to use the weapons that seem to be prevalent right now would be great until he could find something more to his taste. what even is the technology here.
UNDESIRED CR: nothing really comes to mind.

TIMEZONE & TAGGING HABITS: i'm in utc+1/+2 depending on summer/wintertime (i forget which is which) and work full time, but sometimes flexible hours depending whether it's a teaching period or not. sometimes i'm a bit slow on log tags AND RIGHT NOW I'M GENERALLY SLOW because i'm traipsing through brittany in france on vacation eyyyy i sure timed that great didn't i
INTERESTS: sci fi, fantasy, (legal) philosophy, shippiness
ANYTHING ELSE:
CANON: the expanse
CANON POINT: earth and mars are at war, first contact with an alien... protomolecule has occured, no one knows what the shit is going on but james holden, patron saint of lost causes and captain of the spaceship rocinante has contact with the alien protomolecule which takes the form of a dead guy bc why not make him doubt if he's going crazy?? and he's in a "slow zone" where anything that moves faster than a certain speed limit gets violently stopped and dragged to the middle of the core, he's just seen the end of everything after sticking his hand into an alien space station he didn't understand bc the dead guy who's not actually a dead guy told him so... THINGS ARE GREAT and not at all confusing (i swear this canon is great, i'm just bad at summaries)
POWER: motion manipulation
CHARACTER SUMMARY: patron saint of lost causes, guy who was raised to fight impossible fights, only child of a genetic collective of eight (!) people, hero complex times a million, has to save everyone, GIVES A SHIT, not perfect by any stretch of imagination, loves coffee a LOT, the human equivalent of the "you tried" star
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE: his refusal to take sides ("there should be no sides", boy wants to do what's right by everyone not just by those he considers 'his' people), his struggle to figure out what's right and do it, his softer side
GOALS IN GAME: first of all, figure out his powers or that he even has any. second, figure out what's going on. he'll be good for explaining sci fi stuff to other characters less used to that stuff? also the blue glow reminds him of the protomolecule so here's freaking out about that, fun
CURRENT HABITS: DRINKING ALL THE COFFEE........ uh yeah that and also talking to people, seeing where he can help, if at all, pacing a lot
DESIRED CR: anything and everything!! super specific, i know. he's missing his crew, so people for him to adopt as new crew in the long run would be a+, but that'd have to develop organically ig? other big damn hero types.
UNDESIRED CR: i'm not super great with negative cr without ooc communication bc i'm a wimp
ANYTHING ELSE:
CANON: agents of shield/mcu
CANON POINT: captain america dragged hydra and shield into the light and took them down, coulson is running the new shield, bobbi and some others are actually agents of another new shield that they believe to be the legitimate shield. she's a spy and doesn't know where she fits in, precisely. she's loyal to the idea of protecting people above all else and that'll translate to this place, too.
POWER: emotional manipulation - she excels at this without power, too, and at the beginning she won't even quite realise that there's more to it, but your characters might feel a slight inclination to do what she says or might find they feel what she seems to think they feel IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED IN EXPLORING THIS PLEASE LMK also lmk if you'd rather not
CHARACTER SUMMARY: spy who swore an oath to protect people. flawless except for her terrible taste in men. PRETENDING TO BE A BIOLOGIST BY THE NAME OF KATELIN PHILIPS nothing to see here
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE: how she's pretending to be someone else and how that will impact the relationships she builds, how much bobbi can use genuine emotion as a tool or even weapon to manipulate others, how her new powers will tie into that
GOALS IN GAME: figure out what's going on, keep everyone safe, find a way home. not necessarily in that order.
CURRENT HABITS: work out, ask questions, poke her head places, she'll probably hang out at medical as well, trying to find stuff to test
DESIRED CR: fellow spies, people to protect, women to bond with bc bobbi is great at female friendship!
UNDESIRED CR: shrug emoji

TIMEZONE & TAGGING HABITS: BST/GMT, slow to medium pace, aim for tags once a day and boomerang when I’m around.
INTERESTS: spies, SPACE, superheros
CANON: Agents of SHIELD / MCU
CANON POINT: 5x05 Rewind: Fresh outta prison and fresh into cryofreeze
POWER: Portal-based teleportation, yet to be discovered. It starts with wee openings, so he’ll figure it out while doing something stupid.
CHARACTER SUMMARY: Fitz is an engineer / spy (ish) who had a no good very bad five years. he's still mostly a scruffy nerd and grumpy grandpa type but he has also lived two lives! In one, he was an empathetic dork who joined SHIELD to help people and learned how to be brave on the job. In the other, he was a HYDRA scientist who performed fatal experiments on powered individuals to help his robot girlfriend… His default is to lean towards the former, but he’s still reconciling his memories and behaviour in the alternate timeline with his kinder impulses.
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE:
1. Theorising and fake sci-fi sciencing
2. Puzzling out who he is vs who he needs to be in this great big multiverse
3. Exploring his newfound moral ambiguity and ruthlessness
GOALS IN GAME: regrow full beard, find a cyberpunk cardigan, maybe collect data on all the newbies — but that’d be better if other characters wanted to form a squad of analysts to look for patterns together!! i really dig action threads, if anyone wants to ADVENTURE in future
CURRENT HABITS: pacing, snacking 24 hours a day (yes, even on the bugs), whinging, doing two (2) pressups before giving up bc his arm hurts
DESIRED CR: anything!! Fitz hates to be alone, so he’s desperate for connection, but especially:
- Optimistic Heroes to serve as a good example
- Fellow ruthless/sketchy types to get into shenanigans with
- Tech folks who want to build shit
- People who need help exploring their powers and want to test them on someone (seriously, he’d love to be a guinea pig…)
- People who won’t take his know-it-all shite or will call him on his dodgy knowledge of cybernetics/powered people
UNDESIRED CR: I’M GOOD WITH IT ALL. Fitz can be rude/grumpy/judgy/dodgy so negative stuff is super welcome. He’s unavailable for romancing because of his undying love for ♥ JEMMA ♥

CANON: MCU
CANON POINT: IW, pre-crash land, before everything goes entirely 100% to shit
POWER: Neural programming. ~MIND POWERS~
CHARACTER SUMMARY: A retired asshole who just can't quit. Which is to say he's still an asshole, but is also a Good Person. Embarrassing dadman, will go out of his way to talk to you almost exclusively only when he wants to say something Deep or when he wants to make a bad joke that isn't funny but he finds to be both hilarious and delivered with a natural subtlety and flare few others can fully appreciate. Currently incredibly stressed and equally likely to be kind or the worst depending on the situation and the current position of the moon.
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE: coming to terms with his power loss & the subsequent re-amplified experience of who he is as a person and his hands being..... not a thing, finding and appreciating his worth without magic & medicine, this funky new power
GOALS IN GAME: Making friends???? He doesn't do this thing as a general rule so that'll be fun, good luck to him and to you. Getting overly invested in the conspiracy theory of getting the fuck outtie but ALSO learning how to just... exist? And also how to do that outside of the privilege he's lived with his whole life yike-o.
CURRENT HABITS: Stephen spends a lot of time sitting in the dark in the disused part of the safehouse surrounded by rubble. it's depressing. but he's trying to Think, and also Avoid Thinking, both important pastimes.
DESIRED CR: honestly everything. throws the undesired cr option to the wind.

CANON: Westworld
CANON POINT: Post s1: she just gave up a chance at escaping Cowboy Robot Hell for good to go find her once-daughter. ):
POWER: Mechanical intuition - she knows how stuff works just on instinct!
CHARACTER SUMMARY:
Rogue robutt who figured out her world was screwed up cowboy Disneyland And Would Not Fucking Have It, so now she’s taking matters into her own hands. Independent, manipulative and charming, stubborn as hell, probably the baddest bitch who ever lived.
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE:
1. developing normal bonds of trust with people and addressing the ways she uses others, ftlog
2. her character arc in s2, except learning empathy outside of people in direct relation to herself and SADLY without rinko kikuchi’s blessed presence
3. dealing with the implications of being a ~real girl, fucking superb you funky little posthuman
GOALS IN GAME: FUCK IT UP. BURN SHIT DOWN. OWN THIS PLACE.
CURRENT HABITS: Eavesdropping and being a busybody, she’s probably helping NPCs get stuff organized around the safehouse where she can. by force. also, babysitting the children sometimes :""""")
DESIRED CR: minions, co-conspirators, snark pals, EVERY ROBOT, people she’ll try to fight sorry, down for most everything else
UNDESIRED CR: I wanna build up CR in general rather than doing a ship rn! also she won’t make that good of a mom friend yet. wait for somebody to soften her up tbqh
ANYTHING ELSE: maeve + a Mood
CANON: The Silver Case (please play the silver case)
CANON POINT: post-Case 4.5 Face: he’s been in jail for a few months, arrested for destroying the Yukimura Group’s assets and building and killing all its execs with the help of ~the squad~.
POWER:
Shadow Clone JutsuReplication: yeah it’s just shadow clone jutsu tbhCHARACTER SUMMARY: Former no-nonsense detective by day, depression boi who formed his identity around a 20 yr vengeance bid by uhhh also day, now that he did it and got arrested for it. Deaf and low-key about it. Too serious, very private, and can be easily irritated into being too blunt, but rly just wants to do good. Weak to bad girls™️ it’s a problem rip
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE:
1. dealing with his identity issues/current depressiveness by somehow finding a way to reconcile his current purposeless self with his pre-revenge detective self, thx plot things for shaking him out of a rut
2. opening himself up to trust and telling people about himself because uh apart from his two dead co-conspirator friends he currently fully trusts one whole person who isn’t even here
3. getting up to Detective Stuff, of course
GOALS IN GAME: Actually emotionally open up!!! Metaplot shit!!! Stick his nose where it doesn’t belong and be a sad cyberpunk detective!! 👀
CURRENT HABITS: Nosing around like Maeve but like, more quietly. Honestly if it werent playercest they would have bickered about how to organize canned food or something by now. He’s probably doing some more direct interviews/brainstorming with NPCs ....maybe even with your characters?!?!
DESIRED CR: fellow lawtypes and criminal types cause sometimes u gotta bend some rules to do good stuff, drinking buddies, other busybodies, other rude people because he’s comfortable with those types, mean girls to boss him around, whatever else I’m flexible B)
UNDESIRED CR: trying to put CR roots down with him before the potential of a Real ship too but das it.
ANYTHING ELSE: I have one whole gif of Sumio and it’s a flashback to when he was like 20, rip mostly static visual novel canon, but at least it’s what his hair looks like now.

TIMEZONE & TAGGING HABITS: CST; I do a lot of my tagging on the weekends, and occasionally after work if my job doesn't destroy me depending on my project load. If I'm around I like to boomerang cuz I love it.
INTERESTS: Comics (mostly Marvel and lbh, mostly Thor), MCU, TV stuff depending on what I'm watching, Star Wars, A Song of Ice & Fire, tiny houses, bullet journals, cats cats cats cats cats, tarot spreads/cards, cats, paranormal stuff, cryptids, cats cats, DIY, RP & memes and just an eclectic mix of anything that comes to mind.
ANYTHING ELSE:
CANON: Marvel Comics, pre-SW
CANON POINT: Post-Original Sin: found his estranged sister, stomped all over an angelic army, and headed back to Asgard. He has a history reality warping, inter-dimensional traveling, Doctor Doom carrying out questionable experiments on gods and timeline shenanigans. So this is just kind of a gay ass day for him.
POWER: Shapeshifting
CHARACTER SUMMARY: Tricksy, thieving, manipulative good-for-nothing who likes to troll just for the lulz. Loki is a bag of issues with a sensitive inner core that he likes to pretend isn’t there. He’s bad at having friends, bad at being a friend, and great at getting carried away with being so into his schemes that even if they turn out he fucked up. He’s a very sexy failure.
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE: (1) Getting him accustomed to working around his sorcery using his more dangerous qualities for some good ol’ espionage; (2) get over some of his own existential trauma and guilt that’s come from literally destroying another incarnation of himself, whoops; (3) do questionable things for people that he ends up caring about.
GOALS IN GAME: Subject to change: gain his freedom back, maybe check out the underworld???, give whomever did this the big middle finger in the fashion that would be appropriate for the circumstances in his mind.
CURRENT HABITS: Probably eavesdropping and being a sneak; he’s probably mapped out the safehouse in his mind by now. Even with limited resources, he keeps himself well-groomed. Despite all this bullshit he’s probably in the kitchen trying to figure out exactly how to cook up bugs so they taste like bacon because he did not sign up for this.

THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE:GOALS IN GAME: expand his social circle, find ways to help folks, someone outfit him in nifty cyberpunk gear.

Kind of baby crazy lbr. Lots of survivor's guilt p much all the time. Talks nonstop, often over other people. Occasionally lets people get a word in edgewise.
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE: 1) how tony functions without his suit in this kind of environment (before he makes a new one inevitably) 2) his ability to make spectacularly bad decisions sometimes and 3) his continued attempts to do the right thing and be a Hero

ANYTHING ELSE:
CANON: critical role.
CANON POINT: part way through episode 85; a bard's lament. the group just went through something of a fracture with their bard, scanlan, blowing up on them all after his resurrection and promptly left. still trying to work through the aftermath, the rest of vox machina prepared to travel to marquet to tie up some loose threads. it is during keyleth's transport via plants spell that vex doesn't end up in marquet but instead wakes up here.
POWER: light manipulation! currently only able to emit light from her body.
CHARACTER SUMMARY: less messy half-elf ranger. vex'ahlia is apart of an adventuring group called vox machina, twin sister to vax'ildan and proud mother of a brown bear named trinket. she is charming, pretty, and seems to be better at emotions than vax but who is really to say? she isn't good at stabbing things but give her a bow and she can shoot like no other.
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE:GOALS IN GAME: learning how technology works?? found family stuff, possibly inciting prank wars, making sure those close to her survive all this. recovering??? all her shit. she wants her god damn bow back, and her locket, and just everything.

INTERESTS: Science, fish, video games, various TV shows, CATS
ANYTHING ELSE: I've been having some health problems so sorry about speed but I'm getting back into the swing. Here's some turtles:
CANON: Marvel Comics
CANON POINT: The baby!X-Men recently learned they'll have to go back to the past and live their shitty lives, Scott then accidentally got his not!girlfriend killed while trying to rescue his father in space, but then she got better. Also there was a wedding and he had to talk down his daughter from the future from attacking everyone under the influence of an evil telepath.
POWER: Powered vision
CHARACTER SUMMARY: Relentlessly do-gooding superhero with a notoriously shitty life, dragged to the future to confront his broken, traumatized older self and be racked with fears over his darker nature. Used to being a walking talking tactical nuke who can't ever lose control for fear of hurting other people. Uptight and awkward dork.
THREE ASPECTS OF YOUR CHARACTER YOU'D MOST LIKE TO EXPLORE: WHAT IS LIFE LIKE WHEN YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT DESTROYING EVERYTHING YOU SEE? Not so much identity loss but identity conflict: without his powers, he can have something of the life he wanted/not so many doors are closed to him but it can't last and also he possibly doesn't need to be obsessed with control as much anymore? Who on Earth is Scott Summers without the X-Men/with anonymity/without expectations for what being Scott Summers means?
GOALS IN GAME: 1. Get a back-up pair of glasses ASAP (just in case)
2. Adjust to living like a normal person?? While he can.
3. Find out who did all this and undo it
CURRENT HABITS: Scott's having some short-term vision problems and migraines adjusting to not having to wear his ruby-quartz shades anymore. Long-term habit means he's avoiding eye contact and looking directly at people. Otherwise, fanatically sticking to routine- up at 5:30 every day, eat breakfast/lunch/dinner at the same time each day. He will gradually start training again when the migraines die down/when he starts easing into the idea that he doesn't have to suspect 90% of the people around him or hold all his cards clasped with a death grip to his chest.
DESIRED CR: Holy shit somebody help this boy learn how to *live*. He does not know how to be normal or how to have normal friends or what you do when you are not being a superhero 24/7. Also, people who understand how much it sucks to be a leader / people with whom to butt heads over being leader-ly.
UNDESIRED CR: ...none.
