CR Meme: November

— PLOT & CR WITH ME —

Welcome to Empatheias' plotting and CR meme! Please fill out the form below with all of the necessary information. Then go forth and reply to others, plot, make friends, have shenanigans!

The Plot and CR meme will be posted bi-monthly alongside character and player intros, usually around the sixth of each month. We highly encourage everyone to check the post from time to time, even if a week has passed. You never know what kind of opportunities you could be missing!

Feel free to use this post for plotting out current happenings in the game.

INSTRUCTIONS

• Feel free to use the "Open Mingling Announcements" and "Task Board Recruitment" top levels for better focused organisation. Note: Any large scale group plots should still be posted to the OOC community proper.

• For more general plotting and to talk about CR you wish to build, create your own top level following the format below. Put your character's name in the subject line, or your name in the subject line if you have more than one character.

• Fill out the form and comment away! The top level relating to the task board has a different form, catered specifically to task board related things, as well.

• Tip! If mentioning tasks, include both the task ID and a brief two-word blurb to easily identify (eg., ST0602 Giant Fish).

• Here is the link to the Task Board for easy access!

Character Name:
Canon:
Brief Personality: (this doesn't have to be long, list some of the more interesting character personality traits that set them apart from the crowd!)
Appearance: (Is there anything striking about their appearance? Strange limbs, features or other such things that would stick out? Even fashion choice! Please don't use images here, though you can link to them in your description)

Slice of Life or ADVENTURE: (Empatheias is a good mix of both, and it's not always an either or thing. What kinds of thing are you interested in doing with this character? Are they the type to be happy developing a life in Empatheias or has the wanderlust set in? Are they more likely to be involved in the overarching plot and exploration? Do they want to go exploring?)
Current Activities/Developments: (What's your character going through right now? What's gone on in recent past? What are they doing in their day to day life? Are they looking for a job or are they currently in the middle of planning an expedition? A link to a recent post or a top-level can also go here!)
Future Developments: (Where are you wanting to take your character going forward? This could be serious character development, or general slice of life developments! Are they going to pack up and become a nomadic wanderer and explore the world or maybe you want to get them more involved in something else. Talk about the kind of emotions you want your character to work through, as well! Good or bad, or if they're focusing on Dunamis. All future plans go here!)
Shipping/Romance: (let's face it, ship happens. in a general sense are your characters interested in romance? something permanent, or a fling or two maybe? Even unrequited love is something that can be fun to play out!)

Seeking: (What kind of CR are you looking for? For anything related to the task board, see the Task Board Recruitment top level.)
Offering: (What kind of CR can you offer? Is your character the doting uncle type, or are they the kind of character who will bring trouble to anybody nearby? Or could they possibly be the best friend of everyone ever?)
Not Interested In/Avoiding: (If there's anything you're looking to avoid, list it here! Negative CR, violence, anything too slice of life, etc. the more information you give, the better!)

Anything Else: (gifs are fine too.)

Post away and have fun!

Character Name: Ritsuka Fujimaru
Canon: Fate/Grand Order
Brief Personality: Friendly, snarky, nerdy, and probably too forgiving for her own good. Also has a slight tendency to put others' needs/interests before her own. Somehow doesn't see herself as a hero despite everything she's done.
Appearance: This! Though she's definitely gotten some alternative normal clothes (well, normal by local fashion standards, she thinks the steampunk aesthetic is pretty cool and so doesn't go out of her way to find 'normal' things by her world's standards) that she wears fairly often. But if she expects to be needing to do things with the Servants for any reason or needs a little extra protection, she'll have the uniform! Also, of note are those markings on the back of her right hand: they're always visible and look like this, and they probably ping as pretty highly magical to anyone who can sense such things, too!

Slice of Life or ADVENTURE: ALL THE THINGS. Ritsuka is ICly interested in working on trying to save the world and all, but I'm definitely up for shenanigans and fluff and what have you, too!
Current Activities/Developments: WELL she recently came back from being crystalized for the better part of a month, so she's had some catching up to do. Prior to that though she'd recently started dating Trey, so there's that. Otherwise currently just doing the usual working, training, and trying to keep an eye out for clues on how to fix this world.
Future Developments: Nothing major really. She'll be getting a canon update in, oh, about a month or two from now, so that'll be fun and bring in some more traumatic memories for her, but that'll be dealt with when it happens. :) Other than that I have nothing specific in mind just now!
Shipping/Romance: She's now actually dating Trey ~~as opposed to spending so much time together it all but LOOKED like dating~~ so she's definitely not in the market right now. But I mean, if your character doesn't care about that sort of thing don't let that stop you, making Ritsuka's life more awkward is always A++ by me.

Seeking: Pretty much anything! Ritsuka will try to befriend everyone up into and including former (occasionally even current) enemies, so there's that. I'm definitely fine with attempts to deliberately mess with her too, just keep in mind the general warning that the Chaldea Servants will probably react poorly to someone causing their Master harm. But if you're fine with that have at. More friends are always a plus, especially since a fair number of the people she's befriended in-game have left over the past several months.
Offering: A snarky, nerdy teenager who constantly chooses to give the benefit of the doubt and see the best in people, and who will forgive you and give you a second chance as many times as necessary for you to prove yourself. Alternatively, a teenage girl who's recently spent a good year and a half being a vital part of a difficult and desperate fight to save humanity from an impossibly powerful foe and who definitely has scars from the experience under her cheerful exterior.
Not Interested In/Avoiding: Nothing in particular! Just giving the obligatory "ICly castmates may retaliate if she's harmed" warning, but if you're cool with that then so am I. |Db

Anything Else: I have no silly pictures this month so have 30 minutes of the best EMIYA arrangement yet

-------------------

Character Name: Chaz
Canon: Dinotopia
Brief Personality: A cynic and a pessimist who has no qualms about making his opinion known if he disapproves of something. Still, Chaz is a true Dinotopian, and will unhesitatingly help those in need and stand by his friends. Talks like he's a scaredy-cat but doesn't hesitate to take risks or rush into danger to assist a friend.
Appearance: He is a Protoceratops! Chaz basically looks like this, but more rust-red than pink, and a more prominent ridge to his nose.

Slice of Life or ADVENTURE: I'm down for whatever! Chaz hates adventures, so clearly he should be roped into them anyway. :3 But day to day stuff is great too!
Current Activities/Developments: He's.... mooooostly getting over his culture shock. Still trying to find a place to stay where the doors don't give him so much trouble, and work that he can actually meaningfully do. So basically he's very tired and frustrated and cranky with everything right now.
Future Developments: I'd love for him to get talked into exploration stuff! Also I have tentative plans for him to start trying to actually learn the natives' language instead of just relying on the amulets to auto-translate. He just needs to find a way to deal with pesky books and their need to have their pages turned...
Shipping/Romance: Chaz is not interested in interspecies romance. But I guess if you have a thing for small dinosaurs feel free to crush??

Seeking: Man I'm down for anything. Positive, negative, vitriolic best buds... ~~Someone please use his fear of heights to prank him~~
Offering: A small, cranky dinosaur who will tell you quite eloquently just how much of a stupid idea your plan is and complain the entire way of helping you with it.
Not Interested In/Avoiding: I'd rather not Chaz get killed because let's not traumatize the poor thing too much ~~yet~~.

Anything Else: Have a shameless plug for awesome Ceratopsian action figures!

Character Name: Junko Enoshima
Canon: Dangan Ronpa
Brief Personality: Junko's despair garbage. On the surface she can be a totally normal teenage girl. But internally her brain is pretty much all despair all the time. How can she create despair? How can she spread despair? How can she make herself despair more? That kind of thing.
Appearance: Basically the same as her icons? She's been here a few years, but doesn't change her style too much in case people from home show up. It's more fun for her if she's recognizable.

Slice of Life or ADVENTURE: Both! Like I mentioned earlier, Junko's all about despair and both are a great way to create that feeling. Building CR through SoL activities only to do something horrible down the road, or going out on adventures and putting herself or others in danger, or doing these activities and not really doing either, it's all a great way to generate despair!
Current Activities/Developments: DESPAIR. Okay, in more specific, she's looking into Kylo's task because she sees lots of potential for awful there. She's definitely looking for more despair opportunities after getting involved in last month's fun since the urge to do something is definitely there, it's just a matter of her putting things together to do something Junkolike. She's also seeing someone now, so that's despair inducing in an entirely different way.
Future Developments: DESPAIR. Okay, once again, to be more specific, she'll follow Kylo's task wherever that ends up. I'll definitely be throwing her into the intro stuff because she'd definitely go check out the new arrivals showing up somewhere weird, and if nobody's continuing Future Beginnings, I'll probably have her take that over. I'm sure she could find a lot of uses for an old building that used to belong to people she knew.
Shipping/Romance: She's somehow off the market for now. Despair over that or something.

Seeking: Everything for the most part? Junko does well with positive CR, negative CR, positive that becomes negative, negative that becomes positive, friends, enemies, frenemies, whatever. There's a way to make it work!
Offering: A lot. Junko can be a friend, an enemy, a model, an evil mastermind, a brilliant analyst, the list goes on and on. Whatever dynamic you're looking for, she can probably slot into it somehow.
Not Interested In/Avoiding: N/A

Anything Else: this graph sums up Junko's life goals:

Character Name: Roxas
Canon: Kingdom Hearts
Brief Personality: While he initially seems kind of grumpy, that facade is easily gone once you get to know him. He's kind-hearted and likes to help people, befriending easily (even if trust might not be 100% there). He's active, competitive and likes having fun
Appearance: Kind of on the short side with blond hair that defies gravity. Has a penchant for checkerboard patterns

Slice of Life or ADVENTURE:Always open for both, but definitely leaning towards the exploring side right now.
Current Activities/Developments: Roxas has been here for over 5 years now and he's just been living his life. He's got a couple jobs, flies wyverns, and is currently learning carpentry. Most recently, he came off of a month where he was gaining the overflow of Sora's memories, which has made him a bit more avoidant of things. He doesn't take well to memory shenanigans.

Future Developments: So, this month is mostly recovering from memory shenanigans and trying to deal with that. He'll be kind of grumpy because of that. He'll probably be looking for ways to distract himself since he was also sleeping a lot.

Shipping/Romance: Definitely interested. Roxas is pretty single and it might be a slow burn and a half, but I'd be open to it. (Roxas is about 20/21 now age-wise)

Seeking: All types! Friends, family, mentors, task buddies!
Offering: He's the loyal friend, the task buddy, the guy who holds you back

Anything Else: nope

Character Name: Kor Meteor
Canon: Tales of Hearts R
Brief Personality: kor is a cheerful, outgoing sort who's quick to trust others and just as quick to endear himself to them. He's energetic and inquisitive, but none too bright, and his naivete and cluelessness can be downright frustrating for others to deal with, but he's an earnest and loyal friend who always gives his all for the sake of others.
Appearance: i mean honestly just take a look at him. He stands out pretty strongly in Verens thanks to his high JRPG fashion. Besides his unique sense of fashion of course, there's also the red device strapped to his arm, known as his Soma, a unique weapon that lets him form a sword out of his emotions.

Slice of Life or ADVENTURE: Kor does pretty well in either, but he's an adventurer through and through!
Current Activities/Developments: Kor recently played a role in helping to undo the effects Xion had on Sora's memories. Meanwhile, he's also continuing his training with the keyblade under his teacher, Ventus
Future Developments: With the plot focusing back on the Arehtei again, I definitely intend for Kor to get more actively involved there. i'm also planning on strengthening his bonds with his housemate/adoptive brother Steven Universe after the latter undergoes a canon update.
Shipping/Romance:

Now now, I don't ship and tell.

Seeking: More friends for him, basically! His CR pool's shrunken over the years so I'd really like to get that growing again.
Offering: Kor's friendly and easy to get along with, and will try to befrend even the crankiest of folks, so he's great if you have an antisocial character who needs someone to drag them out of their shell. He's also a strong and talented swordsman with years of experience under his belt, so if you want a good sparring partner or someone to tackle challenging tasks or adventures with, he's your guy. Also he's one of the more skilled users of dunamis in Empatheias and can serve as a great teacher as long as you can put up with his energy and enthusiasm.

He also has a special power called Spiria Linking that lets him dive into the hearts of others to help them with mental and emotional issues of a wide array. I make a lot of plots with people using this ability to further his bonds with them and inspire character development in both them and himself I'm always open to creating more plot opportunities for this.
Not Interested In/Avoiding: I'm not super interested in negative CR for him unless there's a development route of some sort for it, but otherwise I'm game for almost anything.

Anything Else:

Get your game on.

Character Name: Dave Strider
Canon: Homestuck
Brief Personality: Dave's a big softy underneath a "cool guy" exterior who's stoic around others, unless you really happen to get under his skin. He likes to think himself as "hip with the kids," although most of his jokes and memes tend to fall short, especially around a crowd of those who don't know about modern humor. He means good and is willing to lend a helping hand (so long as you don't call him a hero).
Appearance: Lanky, average height, and blond, he's pretty much an average dude. The only thing is, he almost always wears shades, day or night, indoors or out. When they're off, he has stark red eyes.

Slice of Life or ADVENTURE: Really either or is good! Depending on who he comes across will definitely influence what lifestyle he ends up living - he tends to go with the flow.
Current Activities/Developments: Dave is one of the new arrivals, so he's going to be jumpy as all get-out. Seeing all the unfamiliar faces, he's worried his brother might be here, and he's away from his anchoring friends. He doesn't really like the whole "telepathy" thing, but he'll get used to that pretty fast. Mainly wandering around and getting to know everyone, he'll be seeking some sort of friendship soon!
Future Developments: I'd really like to see him become more open and free of his worries, leaning more towards the bravery side of his Thras alignment. Learning Dunamis and performancy are something I'd be interested in for him as well! Other than that, I'm happy with going wherever the wind takes him.
Shipping/Romance: I'm open to all kinds of ships - long-term, fling, unrequited, you name it! It'd be interesting to see Dave fumble around the romance field. (He's 21!)

Seeking: Any kind of CR is good with me! Positive, negative, neutral, I just want to get him out there into the social field. Maybe someone can urge him to write a book!
Offering: Dave is most definitely going to be an awkward friend at first, but he's open to helping people out, especially emotionally. His way of helping usually involves rapping, but hey, it's the thought that counts, right? He has potential to be your, yes YOUR, number one best pal.

Anything Else:

It is RIDICULOUS what kind of air this thing is getting. Dude come get the ruler check this out.

Character Name: Jasper
Canon: Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age

Brief Personality: A wise and determined knight who feels kinship with monsters more than man. Driven by pride and resentment, he says love means nothing; but he was a man who valued friendship. Now he's a scheming snake who's easy to annoy. But at least he's well-spoken?

Appearance: He's short with long blond hair and noticably wears perfume.

Slice of Life or ADVENTURE: Both! What Jasper wanted back home was a vacation; now he's getting that stress relief and finding the forgotten parts of himself. He enjoys sipping tea and shooting the breeze. But being intellectually curious, he might involve himself in adventures and exploration simply out of boredom.

Current Activities/Developments: Living a good life. Going on holidays. Trying to hide the fact he's a powerful demon while acting notably sympathetic to the local monster population.

Future Developments: Back from hiatus. XI on the Switch has some new developments but I don't think I'll be canon updating, yet.

Shipping/Romance: Not seeking it but open to organic developments. Jasper's too preoccupied with an old companion from home to form anything resembling a real relationship. Characters can flirt but he'll likely shut them down. He's also 36 years old so I'm not interested in age differences, etc.

Seeking: Now that he's made friends I'd like to get his demonic nature out in the open so if anyone would like to discover that...

Offering: Jasper has a temper but follows a twisted code that values honesty and brotherhood. He'll bring honesty and equal respect to the table. Friends could realize this event is a good way to branch into discussing his past. Is also a gigantic nerd.

Not Interested In/Avoiding: Hit me up and we can talk!
