GROUP INTRO POST


GROUP INTRO POST

Welcome to the game, wild things!

Since we have an influx of a few new people at once, here's a group intro post for everyone that's new this app cycle to say hi!

If you're new, feel free to introduce yourself and your character in the comments below!


NOTES

You can feel free to use this post for setting up starting CR. The game's player plotting/cr meme will also be posted on 4/7/18. So keep an eye out!

Much like many games, the game rotates between periods of plot and downtime. Unlike other games, the periods of downtime are set in temporary camp locations instead of the same game setting. The game is currently in a camp cycle at Melai Temple. Your IC intro posts should take place in that setting and you're free to tag any other posts set there. Please see the Melai Temple post for timelines on when the plot will move forward. ICly, your characters can be handwaved as having arrived only a day or so after camp started.

Please take a look at the Crossroads Post that's up and start thinking about the potential choices. When the camp cycle is over, characters will ICly have a chance to discuss which way to go and have a vote.

Feel free to post on the network! So far, everyone's been working on their first logs but the network is open as well.

The game has a setup where if a player has more than one character, they can only have one character on the main quest (but can swap them at any time). Currently, all characters in game are on the main quest. On 4/6/18 there will be a plot where players with more than one character will have their secondary characters sent to the Brugh for the first time. These characters will then explore the Brugh and broadcast their exploration over the network for other characters on the main quest to participate in.

Waver Velvet

[personal profile] teratias 2018-04-03 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
So uh, hey. I'm Thea, and I'm bringing in Waver Velvet from Fate/zero. Waver's a very weedy 19 year old, who does a lot of yelling and sometimes magecraft.

He's following along the alchemist archetype in game, and...that's about all I've got. I'm looking forward to being able to build on his canonical character development in game. He's a bit of a brat, so I do apologize in advance for his terrible reactions to most things.

:>

Hi Thea! Welcome to the game, Waver looks like he's going to be a lot of fun. There's always room for yelling in this game. :)

I'm Lisa, I play Dixon from Three Billboards, another character with a lot of loyalty but some serious temper issues, and since he has some triggery subject matter feel free to opt-out of anything you like.

Looking forward to playing with you! Just so I know, what's your preferred method of OOC contact?

[personal profile] teratias 2018-04-03 12:27 pm (UTC)(link)
He yells so very much.

I'll look at the opt outs tonight when I'm home at work - I appreciate you putting a link for 'em! But loyalty and temper issues are always fun.

PMs! I reply asap if I'm available to do so/not at work.

Yaaay welcome aboard.

Arturia is going to appoint herself Waver's protector bc he is small and weedy and look at him he clearly needs all the help he can get.

[personal profile] teratias 2018-04-03 12:25 pm (UTC)(link)
He really, really does.

Waver's gonna just begrudgingly accept this after a few minutes of complaining. Too bad he doesn't come with Shirou perks like being able to cook to offset his bratty behavior.

how do you do, fellow wizard.

Seriously though, Alacruun would love to pick his brain about magical theory.
teratias: (Default)

[personal profile] teratias 2018-04-03 12:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Sup

Please yes. Waver enjoys talking about magical theory a lot so this will probably be the fastest way for him to chill out for five seconds before getting riled up about something else.

Alacruun also loves it. He might actually see a bit of himself in Waver, but... we'll see how that goes.

Hi, Thea!

I can't wait to see Waver in action, especially if he's going to have terrible reactions to a bunch of stuff.

[personal profile] teratias 2018-04-03 12:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey :>

He's just...tiny. And yells. And fails. I am very sorry.

Hellooo! I'm Korel, the head mod, and I play Brainiac 5 here, and Superboy, both from DC Comics.

Brainy's also an Alchemist mage type so he'll probably be grabbing Waver so they can knock heads together and figure out this magic nonsense.

He was a scientist back home and while magic in his universe forced him to acknowledge its existence (he's from the DC universe 1000 years past the time of Superman and Batman and so on), he HATES magic so that should get funny since Waver comes from a universe where magic is a little more common.

Hidey-ho.

Given that Nasu-verse magic tries to have a ~scientific~ element with all of it's rules (which tbh makes them a bigger pain in the ass to parse most of the time), Waver might be able to help translate magic into science a bit too. :>

Waver definitely needs a big burly man in his life to drag him along on bad ideas.

Hello! I'm Marie, and I've got two puppets here at WL. This one is Robbie Baldwin from Marvel Comics, and I've also got Tim Drake from DC comics. They sort of bookend Waver in age (Tim's 17, Robbie's about 23) but we can see what they make of each other!

Housekeeping: Robbie does have a small content warning for self harm, so I'm advising everyone to go here if they want to make a blanket statement of "don't ever mention it" or give permission.

given that waver acts like a 12 year old most days i don't sense anything positive for a while....

Thank you for the heads up on that, much appreciated!

Tim is used to dealing with immature teenagers? It could be worse. Anyway, we'll see how it shakes out.

No problem, I figured it's better to get in the habit of directing people to it while the game is young.

Hi! I'm Sam, I play the token kid (Sothe from Fire Emblem), and I...never made it into Fate/ past Stay Night so I know Waver only vaguely, by osmosis, but he looks fun. :D

It's a big franchise anyway. :> Can't wait.

Hi Thea! I'm Juliet, playing Sariatu, the angriest, sassiest monkey. Strong possibility of Team Mom-ing from her, especially if Waver directs any brattiness her direction. Welcome to the game!

Gosh I loved Kubo so this is extremely exciting to me! (He will probably be bratty in her general direction lbr.)

I will never be done crying about it. SEND ALL THE BRATS TO MONKEY MOM.

Hey, I'm Carolyn. I'm an app/plot mod and I just have Revan from Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic. Welcome to the game!
