Monthly CR & Plotting Meme

It's the 4th! That means that it's time now for our current players to plot for the month ahead, get some new CR and chat together about things to come. Go ahead and copy/paste the form below. Or don't. We aren't your parents, we can only make really good suggestions. (Unless...? Nah.)

Put your name/handle in the subject line!

Reminder: Please submit any wishes your character may have, no matter how ridiculous, unrealistic, or gamebreaking they may seem. Both new and old characters may submit!

Character Name: Tamaki Amajiki
Canon: My Hero Academia

Info: Pro Hero in training in a world where most of the population has a superpower called a Quirk. 18 years old. High School 3rd year. Japanese. Timid, anxious, somewhat negative but tries very hard. Well-meaning, determined, and sincere. Will help people without a doubt when he's asked, despite the doubts he has in himself and his ability. Hates being the center of attention. Will absolutely self deprecate, wants to go home.

Magic & Familiar: Animal Magic, Phoenix Familiar

Desired CR:

☀️ Friendships - deepening the ones he has started or beginning new ones, !!emphasis on crosscanon!!

☀️ Magical/General Mentorships - Tamaki is still struggling to feel as comfortable with his animal magic as he was with his quirk. A magical based mentor would be great

☀️ Task Partners - Tamaki will do any task he feels he can accomplish but will be easily egged into doing just about anything

☀️ Shipping(?) - I am always open to shipping but this will be an extremely slowburn and will require a lot of patience from the other party ICly.

☀️ Negative CR - I am 100% fine with negative CR, though it is not my primary goal. Not everyone will get along with someone like Tamaki and I understand that!

Known Plans: Depending on upcoming apps, Tamaki is going to be dealing with having 3/4ths of class 1-A showing up in one fell swoop, plus Tomura Shigaraki. As one of the Big Three at UA, he's going to feel an obligation to the students of 1-A, to guide and help them out which, putting icly is "too much pressure". I'm still looking for him to make cross canon friends and to find a place in a friends group of people his age. He's made progress and there are a handful of people in Avalon he is starting to feel like he can talk to, but he is always slow going. Other than that I really fly by the seat of my pants month to month, but I think I'm going to focus on having him working on his magic training and doing quests.

Other:

Note: Due to shitty RL circumstances I have not gotten back to January event things in a little over a week and I am sorry. I am hitting those tonight, though if that is too long of a wait for anyone, I understand, no need to tag back! I apologize for making people wait on those tags for so long, but will be more active with threads going forward now that RL has settled.

Character Name: Darin Altway
Canon: Original Character
Info: Darin is a blacksmith from your stereotypical fantasy/RPG world. As your standard JRPG style protagonist, the fate of his world rested on his shoulders, as his body housed the soul of an incredibly powerful demon lord. Since he's been de-powered in Avalon, he has no idea if the being inside him is gone or not. Protip: it's now embodying his familiar! But he obviously has no idea. Darin is incredibly outgoing and pretty easily goaded into most, if not all things and despite saying he doesn't want to be a hero, he'll always try and do the right thing. But that doesn't mean he can't be manipulated into doing something wrong!
Magic & Familiar: Magic: Healing | Familiar: A giant antlion
Desired CR: I'm literally up for anything and everything. I love friendship CR but I would love for him to have people antagonize him or outright manipulate him. Good negative/villainous CR is always welcome and I am down for all kinds of plotting. Anyone who wants to get into his head and learn why he doesn't want to go home to his own world is welcome. I'm also up for team-ups, partying and questing, and crafting since he is a master blacksmith!
Known Plans: As of now, he's just trying to adjust to having magic. He only knows one spell, which is healing, and I'd like to have him progress slowly/as plots both player-made and game-wide. Once he's able, I'll have him purchase a shop permit so he can open up his own Forge to anyone in the game. If people want to come work with him/apprentice with him/I'd totally love that! Around that time I'll probably have him move to his own place so I wouldn't mind a roommate or two either!
Other: Feel free to friend me on plurk since I tend to do almost all of my plotting on there. No need to ask for permission if you don't want to, but feel free to introduce yourself if you friend me!

mariscorner, Mariposa21 #4257
Character Name: Harry Potter
Canon: Harry Potter
Info: Hapless angsty teenager with magic, PTSD & depression, and bad luck, a walking trouble magnet, has the people saving thing and chronic hero syndrome, he is genuinely kind and loyal unless you dare to tick him off. Also, a nosy little sneak.
Magic & Familiar: Kinetic, Rose the pink Pygmy Puff
Desired CR: Friends, Parent figures, Frenemies! People who would try to stop him from being a reckless idiot. I'm cool with romance as long as it doesn't involve huge age gaps, plus he is currently hung up with whatever little feelings he has for Ginny left in the mean time. He will also defend kids and teens younger than him like a big brother.
Known Plans: Currently, Harry is dealing with A Quest for the Pure of Heart with Takao and the Selkie rescue quest with Samatoki, although I am also open to doing other quests in the tags. Other than that, he will be super busy at the cafe he works at because of the increased demand for cafe breve with melted honey and trying to resolve his feelings for Ginny.
Other: N/A at the moment

Character Name: Saber (Artoria Pendragon)

Canon: Fate/Stay Night

Info: The Now and Forever King of Knights herself, Artoria Pendragon. History tells us that King Arthur was, obviously, a man... but in Fate, King Arthur was actually a woman disguised as a man. Her tale ended a long time ago, but in Fate, she's summoned into the Holy Grail War as a Saber-class Servant (and actually sits as one of the higher-tier servants). She's strong-willed and speaks truthfully, but she's willing to lie if necessary. She insists that she is a knight and king above all, and that her gender is of little importance to her and her role. She is resolute in following her own morals, regardless of the more viable, yet underhand, tactics being available. Artoria prefers direct, fair confrontations based upon codes of chivalry. Not even her hunger for the Holy Grail can make her abandon her code of honor.

She appears cold, but is usually suppressing her emotions to focus on her goals. For the most part, Artoria is a serious person who fully devotes herself whatever task she's given. This can especially true when it comes to competition, since she's a sore loser, though truthfully her soreness is directed at her own weakness. Normally overly sensitive to others' feelings, Artoria can become obstinate at her worst. She can spend hours on a single task until she's satisfied.

Underneath her serious exterior that she feels forced to hold, Artoria shows herself to be a kind-hearted and gentle person who wishes to protect those she cares about. She is perceptive when it comes to the others' feelings and their troubles, almost dangerously so when combined with her low self-worth and habit to overthink. She is shown to have a voracious appetite, finishing large servings of rice within one minute. Although she can normally eat anything, Shirou's food education in her canon is what awoke her gourmet spirit.

Magic & Familiar: Elemental Magic

Desired CR: Up for anything! Friends, enemies, romantic tension, you name it! I will say though that Rin has already essentially called dibs on the romantic relationship part, so...

Known Plans: I'm finally a bit further out of my funk, so I'll be hoping to have Saber do some quests and finally start turning things in for rewards! Hopefully I'll have a catch-all for normal nice interactions with her, as well as quest threads. Contact me if you want something specific with her so that we can start a CR or develop a current one!

Other:

Hi Ant!! I'm Ryn. We were in MoM together for a little bit, but I never got the chance to sling the character I had there at Darin, so I'd like the chance to do that here!! I'm definitely interested in these two forming a friendship and being task partners in game maybe, if you're down!

I'll sling a plurk add to you shortly!

isanghae / isanghae#8071
Character Name: Kate Galloway
Canon: Original

Info: Grumpy former military from a world where science has made it possible for people to get powers via the ingestion of a pill, which was immediately snapped up by governments and bootlegged by drug dealers. She is cynical, stand-offish and despite it all, extroverted — just lost in bad habits formed after the murders of her parents. Basically thinks keeping her (adoptive) brother safe and provided for is the only thing she's good for any more. Restless, loves exercising and anything that can distract her from her own thoughts for a little while.
info post for all the deets

Magic & Familiar: Kinetic / Bean Nighe

Desired CR: Oh, loads of stuff!
— She definitely deserves to have CR with people who won't tolerate her bs, because there is a l o t of it. So, I'm definitely here for all shades of negative / argumentative CR with her.
— On the other hand, nerds who remind her of her brother would be A+ for getting her to soften up, as well as laid-back, positive personalities who can just shrug off her negativity. I really enjoy opposites attract sort of CR with her, so anything along those lines.
— Drinking buddies! Just. Yeah. She is often in bars, please join her.
— Comrades in arms. If your character is doing the combat-focused quests — wanna team up?
— Also if anyone wants to help her practice her magic or get along with her familiar better, because at the minute she still thinks her familiar is a weirdo, those would be appreciated!
And honestly, a lot more besides. I am greedy and love nothing more than making the most random CR happen.

Known Plans: I already have a log up for her for the month, with most of my plans there! But I am also high-key interested in having her hit by Cupid's Arrow for that quest if anyone wants to do some shenanigans with that. But mostly she's, uh, "dealing with" the fact that the Brave of Soul quest last month hit her harder than she expected. ...By dealing, I mean drinking. She's drinking.

Hey Ryn! Yeah! I would love that! I loved the MHA cast in MoM and I love to see the cast blowing up here! I am definitely down with with having Darin work and get to know Tamaki!

I should be putting up a quest log by the weekend! I'm looking forward to playing with you!

rosemotifs
Character Name: Ken Amada
Canon: Persona 4 Arena Ultimax
Info: Your typical 13 year old whose got a magical fighting ghost whom he can summon by using questionable means. Used to fight a clone of himself. Knows how amazing the power of friendship is and has a pet dog with him.

Ken’s generally a heroic kid who always wants to do the best thing. He’s a pretty level headed kid who usually doesn’t rush into things and likes to think things through. However, he’s still overly polite and mature for his age. He also has a thing about justice and the idea of getting revenge too.

Magic & Familiar: Animal magic, Jack Frost
Desired CR: Not really? I’m good with almost anything but I am more interested to see if there will be mentors around for Ken to help him train more. He needs to learn how to fight better now that he’s a normal 13 year old here!

And more people who would be willing to talk to him about being a kid too! He really needs people to help him realize it’s okay to be a 13 year old here!
Known Plans: Right now, Ken is kind of struggling with accepting his new role as a 13 year old. He wants to act and be a normal kid but at the same time? He’s not used to being just one yet!

Other than that, he’s just gonna hug around a bunch of random people and do a few quests!
Other: It’s 4:30am, why am I up? Ahaha

(Throws Harry for the people to give random hugs list)

I am also down for the two of them to do some good ole questing too.

Ryn!! I want all the CR with you and this girl (Rin) is canonly kind of like a magical mentor, ask her anything about magic anytime. And/or then I also have Usagi with animal magic, we can make either or both happen.

She might be willing to help train him, eventually. Also /gives chamomile tea GO BACK TO BED.

GOD. Rin and Usagi are both SO MUCH.... at least from what I know of Rin. I KNOW Usagi is A Lot. I'm fine with getting cr with either, whoever you would have the most fun with playing off of Tamaki!

... laid-back and positive, you say.

He also does not tolerate BS, but he will be a cheerful ray of sunshine while doing so.

inthetatras
Character Name: Noiz
Canon: DRAMAtical Murder
Info: Wiki time. In short, he's a hacker and video gamer who's into body mods and has a lot of mental hangups he's very slowly working on recovering from. Finds most people annoying at best. Very transactional. Good at the obnoxious composure and deadpan thing. Enjoys saying or doing things to provoke reactions in others. He spent fifteen months in

prismatica and somehow (???) came away with a girlfriend, an unresolved crush on a castmate, and restored senses of pain and touch.
Magic & Familiar: Healing + Milk Rabbit
Desired CR: I'm pretty open as long as you're not looking for romance.
Known Plans: Interested in having Noiz take out that dude who stole the selkie's skin. Otherwise no particular plans that aren't with his gf.

Jaydeis | Jaydeis#8153
Character Name: Princess Allura
Canon: Voltron: Legendary Defender

Info: A warrior princess and a dispenser of deus ex space magics. Her father, King Alfor the Great, created the giant robot Voltron as a weapon to protect the universe. However, her planet was destroyed, the pieces of Voltron were scattered across the stars, and after being kept in stasis sleep for 10,000 years, she awoke to a universe completely dominated by the same empire which destroyed her people. Having lost almost everything, she decided the only sensible thing to do was start sacrificing everything else she could scrounge up to fight back. ... oh, and start fighting back with a ragtag group of rebels, I guess.

She's been raised to believe that a leader's purpose is to do everything for their people — and as a result, she's highly mission-oriented and not adverse to taking risks or making big sacrifices. While she can be a little hot-tempered and hold grudges, more often than not she's a sweet person who likes hugging people and has a soft spot for sparkly things. She also enjoys milkshakes, but can't bring herself to drink them after learning where the milk comes from.

Magic & Familiar: Cognitive Magic, and a Balmera which is essentially a living planet. This one is about the size of a melon, and it looks like a rock that sometimes rolls around after her.

Desired CR: IC, she'll be looking for friends and allies! Allies for obvious reasons, but having personal friends is still a bit of a novelty, since she's more used to formal interactions. Enemies are always welcome, especially because it helps show some more extreme sides to her personalities. What else... oh, I'd love to have her start meeting up with all the other royals in the game. Let's start a Princess Squad or something!

Known Plans: Nothing too concrete, so far the focus is on doing quests and gathering rewards! I have some plotting started for this month's quests, but I'm down to discuss any of them. If nothing else, maybe we can do some group quests — I'm working to save up 40 points to regain all four of Allura's pet space mice, so the more people to thread with, the merrier!

(I'm also interested in discussing some housing ideas — I'd eventually like to have her live with castmates, but I've been wondering if there's a more interesting way to spin it than simply having a cast house. Maybe a mini-community, idk. If anyone is more creative than I am, let's discuss?)

Other:

let's GET THIS GOLD

You're NOT wrong about that even when Rin has her facade to pretend like she's not much... But heeeeey, Usagi can try to be both instant friendship and magical mentor-ish type while Rin may be in denial about friends, so have fun dealing with Usagi!!

moonsilver / moonsilver#4734
Character Name: Nero
Canon: Devil May Cry
Info: Devil hunter and Dante's dead weight nephew. Nero is sassy, sarcastic, and has a hair-trigger temper, but he's also essentially a kind person who is devoted to the people he cares about. He just hides it under many, many layers of being a cocky asshole to everyone else.

Much like in canon, apparently he keeps adopting kids! He's looking out for Ken and Alice right now, so feel free to yell at him if you think he's being a bad notparent.
Magic & Familiar: Kinetic & Geryon
Desired CR: He tends to make enemies and frenemies based on first impressions, so if you like negative CR (or just friendly-but-argumentative CR), he's your dude. Aside from that, I'm down for anything.
Known Plans: Here's Nero's February catch-all! He was hit with a cupid arrow by Archer, and because I just want to see him suffer, he's falling in love with anyone he lays eyes on. (Or just platonically giving free hugs, your call!) If you too would like to suffer the same fate, toss your characters in and try not to cringe at how much of a sap Nero is. He's the worst waifu.

Aside from that, talking with King Arthur has given him a lot to think about, and he's been pestering NPCs for information on how to get to Elphame. He's also been training and practising his magic a lot, too.
Other: idk here's two idiots riding rockets like surfboards

Contact: PM / Discord @ ArchangelAmy#4540

Character Name: Caster (Medea) @

colchismagecraft
Canon: Fate/Stay Night
Info: Volatile, manipulative sorceress from Ancient Greece summoned as a Caster-Class Servant to fight in a magical war between Magi in the present day. Known as the witch of betrayal, and makes herself look the part with her suspicious looking dark cloak and secretive manner, she has the capability to resort to underhanded and outright evil tactics to get her happiness. She just wants to go home to her partner and have a happy ending as his wife, but the world is conspiring against her.
Magic & Familiar: Dark / Skeletal Dragon

Desired CR:
*looks at quest post* So this is the month she’s going to burn all her bridges with CR who thought she wasn’t a nasty person got you. Honestly this month I would love for it to start to come out exactly what she's capable of - considering the Morganna quest and the Selkie quest in particular - and how her friends and allies deal with that.

Connectedly, I’d love her to get some new negative CR too, or at least bicker with people who’s sense of morality clashes with her’s. People she can manipulate are also good.

Other CR is always welcome of course. She’s making friends! Much to her confusion. She enjoys debating with people and having allies she can vent with, and just generally people who can get her out of her shell, even if she's not the best at smalltalk. She’s having fun mentoring a handful of people in magic, when she's in the mood for it.

Only thing I’m not interested in is romance, as she’s still loyal to her partner, so the closest it will probably get outside of Cupid's Arrow shenanigans is “Yes I’m fond of you but I have someone waiting at home”.

Known Plans:
As mentioned she’ll be involved in the Selkie quest - but warning that her approach to said Selkie’s husband will involve her torturing him by causing pain with her magic until he gives the pelt up. Then probably killing him. The whole thing reminds her far too much of how her ex-husband Jason treated her, so she's taking it personally.

Caster'll also get involved in the crystal collecting quest (and handing a black one over to Morganna at the end) and at some point will get hit by a cupid's arrow and become best doting waifu - she will react very poorly to anyone who hits her once it all wears off, and very grateful to anyone who doesn't take advantage of the situation.

Experimenting with Dark Rituals from Morganna's request is a thing, but she'll struggle a bit with the opening up part. She'll try her best!

Other:

Character Name: Mukuro Ikusaba
Canon: Danganronpa
Info: Here be spoilers. A student at Hope's Peak Academy, a school that collects all of the most talented high schoolers from across the country and beyond, assigning them 'Ultimate' titles based on what they are the best-of-the-best at. Mukuro here is the Ultimate Soldier, having worked as part of an elite Mercenary group called Fenrir when she was a young teenager - but she returned to Japan to attend Hope's Peak and help her younger sister (and Ultimate Fashionista) Junko end the world with the power of despair. Oops.

As part of her sister's plans, she was posing as her in the killing game she set up in their school. Only problem is, her acting is atrocious, knows nothing about fashion and can't help but nerd out about military stuff. She's a loyal, devoted bodyguard with a basically non-existent self worth thanks to her sister's abuse.
Magic & Familiar: Animal / Hellhound

Desired CR:
She's already making some good positive relationships with people, which is grand. Honestly, I'm enjoying having her find a mix of people who she's trying to fit in with by pretending to be a good Fashionista and watching her struggle to not get outed as a fake - and I'm also enjoying her accidentally stumbling into people who appreciate her more military aligned side and can bring out her actual self a little more.

The last thing she remembers from canon was being betrayed and killed, so people who can help her deal with that are also much appreciated.

I'm generally up for anything though! Positive CR/Negative CR/romance, ideas are all good.

Known Plans:
She'll be hitting the Quests again this month, in particular I'm interested in the library quest, but she's all for being dragged into other ones too. Otherwise, she's still very much finding her feet. She's never used magic before, and it's safe to say she had no idea what she's doing, so training buddies are appreciated.

Also, given how many idol-y sorts are around, I'd love for someone to discover that she's actually got a good singing voice and encourage her. She will be massively embarrassed, of course, but it'd be good for her.

Other:

I've really been enjoying our thread with Mukuro and Darin! Once Darin gets his forge up and running, he still wants to have her come by and help promote the place! I'm also down with them going on quests together if you'd like and even explore talk about their past traumas!

It was certainly an unexpected surprise, lmao.

I'll make sure to look out for your post, this will be fun!! :)

ch1ps0h0y (PMs preferred unless we get some good CR going; please ask before adding)
Character Name: Emet-Selch
Canon: Final Fantasy XIV

Info: Main villain of the Shadowbringers storyline (5.0), he's a tired old - ancient! - man stuck in a younger body. He's difficult to get along with and can often be caught napping in pleasant outdoor spaces such as parks and such. Used to be meaner but got cured of it in his previous game and is trying to work through ages-old grief, depression, and other unpleasant things.

Magic & Familiar: Alchemy, Shadow Gwiber

Desired CR:
- Friendship? Or not really friendship so much as 'people who don't annoy him'.
- Quest partners; he can't be bringing his castmates along all the time! Especially since they're into heroics. Ew.
- Rivals; or people not afraid to butt heads with him on topics.

Known Plans: I'll be putting up a Feb log at some point. Just trying to work through tourney threads for now. If there are threads you responded to but I haven't yet answered and it's been well over three days please let me know. Emails still get eaten on occasion.

Quests and prompts I intend to hit up are:
- Libyrinth
- Pure of Heart
- Save a Beast, Kill a Man
- Synchronic magic shenanigans

Edited 2021-02-05 01:53 (UTC)

I'm enjoying Mukuro a lot, though Emet still has no idea about who she really is. I wouldn't mind tagging along for a quest!

Allura smash!!

But no seriously, I've been meaning to tag you at some point! Not too sure how she would handle an overly mature tweenager but he can show her how to make friends!

Even if he's kind of slowly adapting to it.

Sounds good to me! You mentioned you were up for the library quest right?

I should do a catch all post later this week so you can keep your eyes open for that!

Sweet because he wants to learn how to play catch up with you all! I wonder if we can lead into that with the current thread we have.

And I did! But alas, I need to get up anyway.
