NAME & PRONOUNS: Gee, they/she
CONTACT: [plurk.com profile] miscreates, sculpts#6553
AREAS OF INTEREST: Theatre, TV & film, slowly dipping my toes into videogames and when I say slowly I mean very slowly. I trained as an actor and am in the slow (slower than my slow toe-dip into videogames) process of setting up a little theatre company. Also I'm English and live in London having recently moved here from The Countryside so occasionally you'll get plurks about me trying to figure out how to life.


> CHARACTER

NAME: Stephen Strange
CANON: MCU
JOURNAL: [personal profile] rehandle
POWER: Neural Programming - currently he can read & speak into minds, identify individual minds by their unique ~neural signature~, and manage basic mind control on an action-by-action basis.
JOB: Stephen is the co-owner of the Displaced-owned and staffed sports bar Red Wings! Any displaced who asks for a job will get hired so if you want a quick and easy CR route hop on over. (He also occasionally performs as a Mentalist as a side hustle, almost exclusively to keep his cooltalk following alive and well.)
SUMMARY OF LAST MONTH: Stephen's been:

- surviving business ownership in the temporary absence of the majority of his workforce
- researching his power in the empty safehouse under the bar where he lives alone
- attending the both recent charity events, also alone
- getting real mad about one specific rich person

PLANS FOR THE NEXT MONTH: More of the same. The bulk of his life is Red Wings now and he's going to start making the most of it to pay more attention to existing CR and building new relationships with newer displaced. Which is to say I'm very open to anything! He also has plans to start getting back involved with interrogating the mystery of how and why they're here, the chest glow, etc.

AREAS OF INTEREST:
1. MAGIC he needs to chat magic with more people, including in the context of all the in-game symbolism.

2. Overall he's incredibly invested in the collective wellbeing of the displaced and will start to make more of an effort to be accessible to the group at large going forward.

3. He's also Morningstar and does care quite a bit about their outreach work, though he doesn't have much time to go out in the field. But he'll start paying more attention to ways people are trying to help the locals to see if there's anything he can do to contribute soon!

HANDWAVED CR OPPORTUNITIES:

- he's been around since day one so is willing and able to answer questions and fill in details of their collective experience here. he always makes himself available to new arrivals during their 4 day out of action phase for this purpose.

- it's not as frequent as it once was but Stephen makes an effort to visit the safehouse once a week or so, usually to stand in the kitchen brewing tea which he then transports to the medical room and hangs out in there for a couple of hours in case anybody needs any medical advice or wants to learn some basic first aid.

- the bar! he's here 90% of his life, chances are good you've seen him if you've visited (and you've definitely had to put up with him if you work there)

- if he stumbles across a displaced cooltalk he follows it, so cooltalk interactions and people witnessing his Business Website (Dr. Stephen Strange: Mentalist, available for children's parties) and the thirst comments left on some of his posts (primarily by parents) is free game.

OVERALL GOALS: To be a valuable resource to the displaced (and to Gaby, and by extension Morningstar and this universe in general), to get to the bottom of All Of This at some point and help them all to regain their agency while ensuring no horrible tears are ripped in the fabric of the multiverse.
ANYTHING ELSE: pov: you work at the bar. you're having fun. you turn around.
