QUESTION FOR A QUESTION MEME

We all like hearing about each other's characters! We all like talking about our own characters! With this groundbreaking new meme, now you can finally do both, for the very first time in DWRP history!

The Guidelines:

• Post a toplevel listing the characters you play! If you have any boundaries you want to set re: questions you might receive (e.g. "No NSFW questions for this character"), do that here too.
  
• Tag other people asking them questions about their characters. What kinds of questions? Up to you! Canon questions, headcanon questions, meta questions, some random thing you've wondered since that thread you had two months ago, it's all fair game.
  
• Need ideas? I was passed this excellent gallery of various questions memes, so feel free to crib from these or just use them as inspiration.
  
• Answer the questions you receive, and, once you've done that, hit the person back with a question of your own about their character(s) too!
  
• You can end it there, or continue to go back and forth asking questions until you're out.
  

Now get to askin'!

ITS BEEN SO MA NY YEARS since i played suikoden, and i know he was a 'big bad boy.' Like THE boy. a good character, that said. I remember him talking about no one taking the end of the world seriously. Did not read too much on the log - but what did he hope to come out of talking out like that? Did he want to make people mad? Make people ware? Stir the pot? Does he have plans in avalon to do anything :3?

Yuber actually was being genuine in his annoyance that nobody seemed to be working towards a solution to the Calamity (in his own mind at least, he doesn't actually spend much time on AOL). He wants to see the multiverse saved.

The death of one world or two doesn't bother him but all existence getting wiped out does. If the multiverse is wiped out then the Forces of Chaos are wiped out with it, including him. If the stasis continues and he dies in Avalon he's worried his soul will withdraw into the World of Emptiness and become still. The whole situation bothers him a lot since he's a creature who is very motivated by his own survival.

The plan he has is based around him moving time around himself so he can go past the barrier and take back Excalibur but he really doesn't have any ideas for how to do that especially without his powers. It's also not much of a plan but he's never been good at coming up with plans.

More immediate ideas of his are less focused on resolving the Calamity and more focused on spreading disorder. Some of these might actually pan out into player plots depending on in game events!

OHH but this is really neat. He does have a plan which is more then most people I think can say within Avalon. Which is interesting, do you have plans for him to talk to the npcs in the future about opting to help more? Make a plot out of it?

How does he see disorder work in avalon?

[eightfoldfiend]

How he speaks to NPCs will depend on whether he ends up speaking to them on his own if he gets dragged to them against his will.

As for disorder he sees it as violence, confusion, bloodshed, mass hysteria etc etc. He thrives on chaos and is used to it being the main force that fuels him (this human food/drink/shelter/sleep nonsense is really messing with him). He gets lethargic and bored if he goes without for too long and believes he will fade away if he can't cause any destruction... hence why he sometimes slinks out at night to commit murders. It's something, but it barely satisfies compared to the wars and battlefields he's used to.

Nodnod, makes sense. Im new to dreamwidth rp a bit, so npc involvement in how things have been in games. are very new to me! I was curious what you would want to do with npcs, or if you had plans to engage with them ( or a want ).

Do you think its habitual now? TO want to start chaos or is it that his body, despite completely made human by avalon rules. Has the need for chaos? Is he going to fade away still now? If he doesnt? etc

[eightfoldfiend]

Yuber's chaos needs in Avalon are purely psychosomatic. He's used to sustaining himself with it but human needs are what sustains him now! He will NOT fade away if he stops wrecking shit but he feels like he will.

That kinda is sad.... Is that something you would like to see him reconcile with? Be different? Or do you think he cant change and is just - who he is ultimately?

[eightfoldfiend]

He can never not be chaos. In the Suikoden universe he was chaos personified. He can change a bit, chaos is always shifting, in order to realign himself to adapt to new situations but not to the point that he will ever be okay with being still and peaceful for extended periods of time.

If he is ever still it's because he's trying to be patient and wait for an opportunity to stir things up at a point where it causes maximum disorder.
