— PLOT AND 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 on the first of each month, and will be posted once the intro posts have been posted, and again during the mid-month announcement. 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!

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!

FORM

SUBJECT LINE: CHARACTER NAME

Your Name: 
Preferred Contact:

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: Guzma
Canon: Pokèmon Sun&Moon
Brief Personality: Guzma acts like a typical street thug, he's aggressive, abrasive, and looks for fights even if there's not one to be found. He's also a bit of clown, but he's got a lot of anger and is easy to provoke. He likes smack-talking as much as he likes smacking people around, and believes very deeply in social Darwinism. He's antagonistic, to put it simply, but that isn't to say he can't be befriended, just... it's not entirely the easiest feat, either.
Appearance: YA BOI GUZMA

Slice of Life or ADVENTURE: Both, really!! Guzma could use some more SoL kinda shit in general, getting himself more acclimated to dealing with the NORMIES and what not. But also, drag his ass out on some adventure too, he's a very powerful Pokèmon trainer, and is literally fearless. He'd be a pretty good companion for it, except that he might totally leave your ass if the feeling strikes him. Look, the guy cares about himself, and not much else, especially here.

Current Activities/Developments: So he's recently went through the transition of being a forest hobo thugsquatch, to hanging out at Jill Valentine's. He's also causing trouble still, pilfering from places, and just unabashedly picking fights with people and all sorts of crap. He's not ashamed of it at all, and even less so sorry. Look, he's the leader of a gang full of a bunch of pseudo anarchists, alright? He does not give a single fuck about law and order, and is very much so of the opinion he can DO WHAT HE WANTS.

Future Developments: Honestly this is very open, I wouldn't mind at all if Guzma spiraled worse and worse, or if he found people that could help him go onto a better path. Either option holds a lot of interest for me, and as of right now he's kinda teetering between the two. He does have some positive influences, but if he could meet up with some fellow bad dudes to help him embrace his more chaotic and shitty side, well. I certainly wouldn't complain. I really like to just see where things go based on CR, instead of super planning things out.

Shipping/Romance: I'm actually fine with something developing, male or female. Though, Guzma seems to have a soft spot for women, but hey, nothing says romance can't be a rough and tumble sorta thing either (irt guys). But ultimately, it'll be hard to actually get Guzma to settle down and pursue anything, he has a lot of issues in general, let alone opening up about vulnerable shit.

However, I am also down for casual stuff if someone wanted, I feel like there's not enough casual stuff in rp sometimes. Don't get me wrong, I love me some slow burn shipping! But let's be honest, sometimes a crap ton of thought and emotions isn't put into a hook up or short term dating either. So, in other words, I am totally down for the shallow and the deep when it comes to shipping.

But then again, I pity anyone who wants to be with Guzma to begin with, I mean, dude's a right mess.

Seeking: I hate to say anything, but really it's just true. I love negative CR, I tend to always pick characters who usher in a lot of it, but that does not mean I don't want positive CR. I think it'd be fun and interesting to see Guzma dealing with all types of people, and so if you want someone to antagonize your Good Guy character, Guzma's your man. If you want a baddie bro, Guzma is here for it. If you wanna try to win Guzma over to being the good dude that's under that shouty and angry outter shell, well... He won't like it, but I'm here for it.

Offering: Guzma is antagonism in human form. He likes conflict, he loves scaring people, and making them fear him. He loves fighting and beating people down. He also has very cute Pokèmon. If you wanna be friends with his Pokèmon, that is very much possible!! It's more easy to win their affection, than his. If you want a complicated and caustic CR, Guzma is great for it. He's a very complicated man, who seems very simple at first, but there's a lot more to him than meets the eye.

Not Interested In/Avoiding: Nothing, really.

Anything Else:

Gonna spear him and put him into an armbar until he promises to be a Respectable Young Man and get a job like she does

when she feels like it

See he's totally fine with getting money through smashing monsters, but he'll also steal shit if he feels like it. W/e!!

But I am totally down with her literally strong arming him into being a decent dude.

Just pay for it you're a grown ass man and they overpay for task board stuff unless ur getting like paid in songs or something weird!!!!!

Just sits on him and tells him he can leave if he can do 50 push-ups with her there, 50's easy
