CR & Plotting Meme!
Monthly CR & Plotting Meme

It's that time again already! It's time 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!

Schmittchen
Character Name: Toshirou Hijikata
Canon: Gintama
Info: Hijikata is the vice-commander of the Shinsengumi, the shogunate's special police in Edo, in a world that recently got conquered by aliens (Amanto). He's a good guy at the core, but has bad manners, a shitty temper, and horrible priorities. He spent 10 months on Prismatica before coming here, though, so I'd like to say he became a bit more sensitive and sociable!
Magics & Familiar: Elemental (still just fire so far... he really doesn't bother, does he?) & Death | Crow Tengu (Arashi)
Desired CR: Anything and everything!! I'm enjoying the mix of people he likes and trusts, people he keeps butting heads with, and people who just confuse the hell out of him! He hasn't made any actual enemies so far, but I'm up for that too.
Known Plans: I'm really excited again for this month! I was a little late to tagging out on the April event, but if anyone would still like to do something with Hijikata there, do let me know and I'll gladly toss him at your top-level. As far as TDM prompts go Hijikata isn't jumping for anything this time (he already knows his position on the political situation, and candy, insects and crystals don't entice him much... and the minotaur situation is so unfortunate, he may just lie low on that one, ffff), but if anyone would like him to go with them or needs help or such he will (and I'll happily tag your post)!
Regarding the quests he'll go for No Buccaing Out because he's not about to let those poor eel naga people get eaten alive by nudibranchs, and he'll try to prevent the Polite Pyro and Incubabes quests. The former will be hard to prevent since any building in Camelot could be targeted, so I think I may put him to work as a firefighter/rescuer once it's happened instead, but for the latter Hijikata will actually take it upon himself to protect the head chef at the castle (since unlike her wizard half-brother her whereabouts are known), so he'll be available to fight any would-be murderers (and I'm totally down for him losing and the murder happening!).
Otherwise he finally has his magic back to normal (many thanks to everyone who helped force him to stay out of the sun!), so he'll revisit Loch Manor to familiarise himself with the ghosts there and try to help them now that he can understand what they say (huge kudos to everyone who helped him, gently or reproachfully, get over his fear of ghosts to a degree where he at least understands that they're not invariably evil!). I'll put up a prompt for that along with the above quests at some point this week.
Other: With Okita as a subordinate you need no enemies.
