NAME
Aziraphale

DAILY LIFE
Currently, Aziraphale has been spending most of his time at the woods with Stone trying to cut down wood to rebuild the docks/boats. Previously, he had been spending a lot of his time rebuilding the church.

Before that, he spent most of his time at the library and around town trying to talk to the spirits. He is looking to find time to return to this project.

The other thing he can be doing is trying to gather seeds and tend to Misty's garden.

He can occasionally be seen puzzled over things at the general or grocery store. If you ask him how to put on any article of clothing you might find, he'll have a definitive answer.

Since the sinking of the ferry, he's been spending a lot more time directly between home and the docks, without doing too much going out to socialize, except for at the costumes pile.

LANTERN
It looks like this

APPEARANCE/STYLE
He has kept his hairstyle for over six thousand years so is unlikely to change it. And he really likes his current ensemble and is unlikely to change it up, considering that even though historical outfits are available at the general store, none of them are up to his standards.

Ever since the ferry sinking, he can occasionally be seen flying around town with fluffy white wings. They look like this (that's also his daily outfit. He has tartan-patterned socks.)

He has a tartan sling for his broken arm, and will continue wearing it until November.

LIVING ARRANGEMENTS
He lives in one of the A-frames with Crowley and Bucky. It looks like this albeit with more houseplants and stacks and stacks of books. It's located at Miner's Castle #3 in the Village.

IN SEARCH OF
I think he's full-up on projects at the moment but does anyone else want to help the rebuild efforts for the dock? Current plans are to wait to see what we're doing with the newbs and supplies in November, and then go from there.

Also, does anyone know what the status of the church is?

OTHER
He's the voice of the welcome recording, so newbs feel free to recognize him talking anywhere.

And, if you ever find Aziraphale and Crowley around town together, Crowley usually calls him "angel," so feel free to have overheard this.

NAME

peter parker, also answers to pete, petey, petey-boy, parker, P A R K E R!!! and assorted other variations.
DAILY LIFE

fuck i suck at these so much BUT despite living in the invincible, peter doesn't spend a whole lot of time there beyond the absolute necessities. he has a habit of totally going off and exploring by himself (ill-advised obvs), so he's not always around.

this is in spite of the fact that he's generally quite affable and really fucking nosy so, like, he'll oscillate between being! involved! with people! and then just doing his own thing — because 1. it's a hard habit to break and 2. spider-sense in general means there's A Lot Going On There.

his diet pre-ferry disaster (THANKS) was pretty garbage, btw. who needs a balanced diet when you've got spider-metabolism?

as a note, despite living in the invincible, peter doesn't drink alcohol so feel free to have any invincible regulars notice that fact ig.
LANTERN

something like this tbh
APPEARANCE/STYLE

U H so honestly, peter's sense of style is basically just " layers ". t-shirts with other shirts over the top, weird pink cardigans, rucksacks!, actual shirts just layered over his costume...

—which basically just means no, his style hasn't changed. sorry, beacon. pete's never been the height of fashion. he's just a basic white dude who's going to stay a basic white dude.

fwiw his hair is probably more this than this at this point, because who's got time to faff around with styling??

but honestly if peter doesn't end up like this by the time he's done with itn, i have failed everyone.

he has the black suit in game, by the way. it's definitely been patched up a couple of times. he is A+ at sewing, so if anyone needs a hand PETE IS UR MAN.
LIVING ARRANGEMENTS

so, peter's in the invincible (room #208) and has been since the start of the game... his room is actually probably a bit sad in that it's not particularly personalised as far as these things go, mostly because he doesn't actually spend that much time there.
IN SEARCH OF

people! to go on explorations and expeditions! but other than that idk tbh.
OTHER

tangentially related AND IF ANYONE'S CURIOUS, as an FYI i default to josh keaton for peter's voice. lmao please ignore the game footage....

otherwise, yes: he has an accent.

Edited (GOTTA! ADD! MORE! LINKS! i'm sorry. i have so many things saved for moments like this....) 2019-10-20 22:33 (UTC)

NAME Bucky (currently going by Soldat)
DAILY LIFE Multiple patrols around the explored/inhabited parts of Beacon (does not include the armory, but does include everything else), visits to people he's determined are handlers or techs to ask after things to do, and helping Misty with the garden stuff. When the dock rebuilding is going on, he's also helping with that. Twice a week he's at the gym with Javert to teach people how not to die if they get cornered, and/or how to work with knives if they actually have some skill.
LANTERN An antique WW2 military lantern, looks something like this only with metal shutters fixed onto it so he can shut out all the light if he wants to. He often does this.
APPEARANCE/STYLE When on an exploration or doing work, he wears his tactical gear, but often with a hoodie kind of thing over it because it's getting colder and also the arm might freak people out. When just doing a standard patrol or anything else, he likes lots of layers (minus the hat, he can't handle shit on his head at this point). He has still not discovered hair ties, so his hair is p much always loose. Easier to hide in it that way.
LIVING ARRANGEMENTS Currently sleeping on Crowley and Aziraphale's couch, but has if-needed rights to the spare room at Misty's house too, which he will be exercising sometimes once the angel-demon pair rediscovers sex. They're all in Miner's Castle #3.
IN SEARCH OF Additional daily tasks, more cooking lessons, more students who need to learn the basics of falling/escaping holds/very basic self-defense so he can feel good about helping people stay alive and practice actually giving instructions and being looked at.
OTHER He has recently (re)discovered coffee and loves it a lot. Language waffles between English and Russian, occasionally sounds old-fashioned-Brooklyn-y in English, but if it's obvious someone is speaking another language he knows, he'll use that (i.e. French with Javert). It's only polite.

Edited 2019-10-20 22:17 (UTC)

NAME Stone
DAILY LIFE He spends most of his time hanging around the Invincible munching on whatever food he can get his hands on, or climbing things (said Invincible, trees, other people's houses, whatever), or prowling around exploring and trying to meet people. He's a social old man, okay. Every few days he takes his winged form and goes for a flight around the village and a little ways out over the bay, and takes a bracing swim before heading back ashore for some sitting by the bonfire to warm up again.
LANTERN Purple-blue glass in the shape of a closed flower. Looks kinda like the glowy bud-building in the background.
APPEARANCE/STYLE Stone is taller than most humans (but nowhere near the size of somebody like Rosinante) and very gangly and delicate-looking, with long limbs and digits, a slightly elongated face. He passes for human unless you know to look for the signs of a non-human. And, you know, the fact that his skin has absolutely no color to it-- he's not just peach-white, he is parchment-white, with his veins clearly visible in many places. His hair is also pure white and shaggy, light to the point of whispy. The only color to him are his eyes, bright blue, though one is clouded and obviously blind. His clothing is serviceable and gray, good material but kind of old and well-used. He's picked up a knee-length coat from the general store, which is light blue with lots of buttons, and which he wears outside when it gets particularly chilly. His feet are always bare.
LIVING ARRANGEMENTS Currently at the Invincible. If my lovely canonmate apps next round, he will not be looking for roomies, but if that doesn't happen, I absolutely want roommates. He's going to be living there for the foreseeable future, because he needs to hear/smell plenty of people around him to sleep comfortably.
IN SEARCH OF Potentially roommates. Friends. People to make food for him to mooch off of. People who want to get flown around, because that's fun, right?
OTHER Stone is probably the only person in Beacon who died of natural causes. I find that worth noting :D

NAME
Jason Grace
DAILY LIFE
Mornings are for himself. He'll climb on the roof to work on his ocarina skills or do his own workout routine in the gym. Following that, he usually tries to work on the various projects he has agreed to help with: repairing the church, constructing boats, or building spaces for the gardening to occur. The evenings are set aside for training others, since he agreed to help Javert teach anyone interested or for exploring if he can find someone to join him (you don't go on quests by yourself). He usually spends any "free time" either walking around the Village or hanging out in the Invincible's tavern and likes to try striking up a conversation with anyone who might pass by. You might even catch him drawing occasionally, and he tends to do this most by the Bonfire -- perhaps his next most popular hangout. He likes to watch the flames because the bonfire reminds him of home.
LANTERN
Sort of like this in style -- it's a dark gold, with little lightning bolts engraved around the base and top. Someone paying attention would likely notice it looks a lot like the gold of his glasses.
APPEARANCE/STYLE
Jason's clothes are standard teenager: jeans, shirt, jacket. And yet he's gotten the approval of Aphrodite herself on how fashionable or maybe just good looking he is. Jason keeps things fairly simple and functional and yet makes them look pretty stylish. Natural talent perhaps?

My icons don't reflect this, but Jason has a pair of gold-rimmed glasses that he wears and also a scar on his lip (from when he was a baby and tried to eat a stapler). Also, it's really only come up with Eleven, but by this point a few people have probably caught him with his sleeves rolled up and seen his tattoo.

This is typically what you get.

LIVING ARRANGEMENTS
Jason picked the highest floor of The Invincible and picked the first room he came across, 301. He keeps his bed close to the window and you may or may not catch him climbing/flying out of it on occasion to chill on the roof instead. Boy likes his heights.

If you live in the Invincible it is very likely that he has personally stopped by your room to say hello and introduce himself. He has been a leader at two different camps now and that sort of 'welcome, let me help you adjust' mentality is hard to shake.
IN SEARCH OF
After several acts of destruction it wouldn't surprise me if Jason eventually suggests some kind of guard duty/patrolling of key areas.

However, for the time being he's mainly helping where he can and so he's constantly listening for requests of assistance or help. It's why he involved himself in the church, the gardens, and fighter training.

Basically if you need extra muscle or something he's likely to lend a hand.
OTHER
Spent nearly the first month not eating for fear that this would effect his chances of getting to the proper underworld. Has since started to eat, since getting any sleep has gotten more difficult with hallucinations, though you may notice he avoids anything with seeds. Very odd quirk...can't imagine why he's doing that.

NAME
Crowley
DAILY LIFE
Crowley is generally sulking and being pissed off that his plan to hijack the ferry didn't work.

He's also planning alternate ways to escape Beacon at any cost, which he's slowly trying to get the few people left who like him to be part of these plans. This involves flying over the forest, creating a boat, and flying out over the water. Not a lot of people are behind him on these plans, considering how badly the last ones went.

He's also slowly healing his broken leg and meeting daily with Lunafreya to try to get it to heal faster.
LANTERN
Classic antique lantern with a snake motif.
APPEARANCE/STYLE
Crowley still dresses in his androgynous style with tight skinny jeans, blazer, waistcoat, and accoutrements. Since arriving in beacon, he has also acquired a splint over his jeans to protect his broken leg, but he's doing his level best to pretend that he's about to go back to Earth at any given moment so he's not changing thankyouverymuch.
LIVING ARRANGEMENTS
Crowley lives in Miner's Castle #3 with his best friend, Aziraphale, and with the human soldier person he's adopted (and will die to protect though he'll never admit it), Bucky. His place has lots of books and plants.
IN SEARCH OF
Desperately in search of more things for Crowley to do in town. He's got the broken leg and his personality means he'll be against helping out, but he needs to grow up a bit and be part of the town more. Maybe someone who has a negative CR towards him can force him to be more proactive with helping out? He can always use a good punch in the face to get his act together. I am 100% okay with your characters being rude, nasty, or downright violent to Crowley---if he deserves it, please consider this a blanket permissions to do it.

Crowley's acerbic personality means he'll be tough to crack, but once he likes you, he'll always hang around.
OTHER
Here, have a meme.

Edited 2019-10-20 23:55 (UTC)

NAME Rosinante Donquixote, though he usually just introduces himself by his first name.
DAILY LIFE Much of his free time is spent working on boat-building. By now he's actually got a pretty good 3-person dinghy mostly built and is working out how to rig up a sail.

When he's not laboring away and injuring himself in the process, he's often seen by the shore taking photos of the stars (when they're visible, anyway), or sitting in the library or at a table at The Invincible working on charting them. He also spends a ton of time just reading the network and not saying much at all on it.

He's almost always got a cigarette in his mouth, though he's slowed down lately in case the ferry destruction means he'll never get any more and is trying - poorly - to ration them. This does make him fairly easy to find though, just follow the smell of cigarette smoke to wherever he's at.

He eats pretty simply, but does know how to cook basic foods, he just ends up burning or cutting himself sometimes in the process. He also likes to stay in shape and will occasionally just go for a jog or make use of the gym despite its state of disrepair. Fixing that place up a bit may become a future project if he finds he needs more to do.
LANTERN A simple but heavy-duty (and quite heavy) ship's lantern with a few scuffs and dents already from being repeatedly dropped. The Marines logo is imprinted into the base, though it looks fairly worn.
APPEARANCE/STYLE Rosinante is 9'7" tall. This means he towers over most people here. He doesn't particularly enjoy making people feel uncomfortable, and occasionally will sit even when others are standing just so he's easier to look at without causing a bunch of sore necks. He also tends to walk with a slouch.

The other very noticeable thing about him is that he usually wears makeup, but not the pattern seen in his icons. In Beacon he typically goes around with this look, but will change up colors and patterns some days on a whim.

He only has a few shirts and pants that fit him (poorly) and they keep getting destroyed or bloodstained so he's raiding the costume box for ideas lately. He likes warm colors and pastels but can't be picky given his limited options here. He still does often wear his red hat with the hearts at the tails of the earflaps, and much of the time is also in a massive oversized black feather coat, though the poor thing is looking awfully ragged by now.

His left arm is temporarily in a sling made from a torn-up light blue sweater, his hair is kind of a shaggy mess, but he is always clean-shaven. And he looks like he could probably bench press a car. He's covered in scars of varying ages and sizes and you've probably at least seen the ones on his arms or one of the large ones on his right shoulder, where it cuts toward his collarbone.

He's armed but tends to conceal his pistol inside his coat. However, if heading out to the outskirts of town, such as to the museum, he'll sling Winters' shotgun over one shoulder.
LIVING ARRANGEMENTS Room 310 at The Invincible. Top floor, end of the hallway. The door has some very small and at least one very large red painted handprints on it. He's roommates with Mary, who he adores and perpetually worries about but tries not to hover because he doesn't want her to be attached to him because he has problems.
IN SEARCH OF A tailor! Someone help this boy fix his clothes! They're always getting damaged and even the ones in good shape just never fit right because he is TOO TALL.
OTHER Very much a lurker both on the network but also in person. He's easy enough to get along with but sometimes he needs a push to be social. Most who just know him from seeing him around town would probably get the sense that he's pleasant enough but not particularly outgoing and keeps to himself a lot. He's helpful though so for small odd jobs he's often one who's happy to lend a hand if he's around.

He's also extremely clumsy. Competent for sure, just more prone to accidentally hammering his finger instead of the nail, falling completely over for no obvious reason, bumping into things, knocking things over. Feel free to have any character have noticed this and be generally aware of it even if they haven't spoken.

NAME
Javert

DAILY LIFE
He's got himself on a pretty strict schedule. Every morning he gets up early, washes, trims his beard, dresses, and grabs something to eat down at the Invincible's bar. After that, he patrols the town for several hours, keeping mostly to Bonfire Square and the area surrounding it. Sometimes, he'll take a break at the Invincible, or the church, but he mostly keeps to himself. He keeps tabs on people, what they do, and who they might be seen in public with. In the evenings, he will either patrol the outskirts of Beacon, going out to the museum or the armory, or he will be conducting his combat training and first aid classes at the village gym. After that, he goes back to his room to to spend the rest of the night reading or talking to his roommate.

Even if they haven't spoken to each, it's very likely everyone has seen Javert around. He's always patrolling, like I said, so you can definitely assume your character has seen him around, lurking in the shadows like he's spying.

LANTERN
It looks exactly like the lanterns that he would use back home. Utilitarian, early 19th century.

APPEARANCE/STYLE
He dresses similarly to this, only with a thicker greatcoat. He wears a hat and gloves only when he's outdoors, and will dress down to a waistcoat when he's inside. You can tell he puts a lot of time into his appearance. He keeps his clothes pristine and well-tailored, trims his beard/whiskers, and has his hair cut short.

A lot of the time, when he's out on patrols, he will have his hat pulled low over his eyes and his greatcoat collar popped up to cover his face. He also carries his cudgel around with him, and holds it either in his hand or under his arm.

LIVING ARRANGEMENTS
He lives in the Invincible, room #201 with Rosalind Lutece. It's unlikely that he will invite anyone inside, given that he's a private person and prefers to keep to himself. He keeps a chainsaw and a trunk full of swords out in the open, and doesn't have much else for personal effects. For the first few months in Beacon, he had been sleeping on a mattress on the floor of the living room. Now, though, he's built a room divider for the bedroom, a bed frame for his mattress, and he and Rosalind share the space together.

IN SEARCH OF
People to accompany him on explorations or expeditions. Maybe even another hobby. He reads, but only because he wants to educate himself, not because he likes it. He runs the weekly combat training sessions and first aid lessons at the gym, and he's always looking for more people to participate in that.

OTHER
He speaks French, if anyone is astute enough to notice. He also talks to himself a lot, usually just thinking to himself out loud. Sometimes, he can be caught daydreaming outside or in the Invincible. When he's in that state, he's usually not paying attention to what's going on around him, and it's kind of cute?

NAME Cao Pi, styled Zihuan. So far none of you are worthy of being allowed to simply call him Zihuan.
DAILY LIFE Strolling around the town, keeping a vague eye on things, making notes, writing poetry, and having at least one glass of wine with dinner. He doesn't go far, even traveling over the bridge to the village on the other side of the river is more like an extra haul that he'll take a special day to accomplish.
LANTERN god I literally never considered it at all but...it's probably vaguely Chinese.
APPEARANCE/STYLE Cao Pi haaaaates the clothing offerings in the shop so far so he's still more or less wearing what he died in, with a few small repairs to it. Which is this although some days he doesn't wear the shoulder armor and bracers. He has a handful of warmer clothing he's slowly gathering against the coming winter but it has to be plain because he's already forming a desperate hatred against plaid.

He's about six foot give or take, lightly muscled especially in the arms and chest, with velvety black hair always tied back in a queue. His hair actually reaches about his waist. His eyes are a very pale ice-blue color. His aesthetic, if he can ever explore it, would be entirely shades of indigo-blue and a fenghuang motif, and he'd probably be down with fine tailored suits if they had any around here. That said, his icons are a mix of his appearance in games 5-9 though technically his "skin" from the moment he died would have been game 7, which is really hard to convey in icons, sorry.
LIVING ARRANGEMENTS still living blissfully alone in the Invincible, apparently! He doesn't have a lot, he lives spartan because there isn't anything fancy to be had let alone want. There is absolutely a slow-growing collection of paper and pens in his room, though, on whatever passes for a desk. So long as no one needs a room he'll stay that way.
IN SEARCH OF nothing really, although once he goes public about his Go board and his poetry he might be actually searching for people to play with or listen to his poetry.
OTHER
he has a very cautious and refined manner of speech, both in text and in person. Will's new apps allow him to basically draw on his pad with his finger in his own language and have it auto-translated so his texting translations now have much better punctuation and grammar than they used to.

NAME

Kettara Bloodthirst. She will be sparing about who she shares the "Bloodthirst" title with, though. She generally does introduce herself as a member of the Earthen Ring, though.

DAILY LIFE

Kettara is still getting her footing in Beacon and spends most of her time training or meditating. Most of that meditation has either been in front of the bonfire or on the beach. She's been living a very solitary existence and largely avoids other people. Your character might have noticed her sitting on the roof of the Invincible and giving everyone very judging looks. She's new to technology and thus far hasn't used the network much. That being said, she does go to the public training sessions religiously and will bug other characters into sparring with her and, if possible, to teach her new things.

LANTERN

Nothing too exciting.

APPEARANCE/STYLE

Kettara has stayed with her regular armor 110% of the time, including when she sleeps. However, her chestplate was badly damaged when she came in and is currently unwearable. She's six feet tall, green, with a large facial tattoo, tusks, and lots of red hair. She's also wearing a surprising amount of jewelry. Of note, her size and the way she carries herself tends to make people think she's several years older than she actually is.

LIVING ARRANGEMENTS

Currently living in Bridalveil Falls #5, but has made exactly zero personal touches and only goes there to sleep.

IN SEARCH OF

Anything and everything! Kettara's stuck in a weird "humans SUCK!" and "but these specific humans maybe don't?" mindset, in addition to feeling very lonely and sad about ending up in Beacon. Sparring partners and folks who want to discuss magical theory will have an easier time engaging with her.

OTHER

Kettara is currently pretty paranoid and antisocial, but that will ease as she gets used to the situation.

NAME
Riku
DAILY LIFE
Exercises daily. Tries to fit in about half an hour a day of practicing "phrases" with the ocarina while getting a little bonfire time. Gotta get your light intake somehow. Calls the Lighthouse Keeper, Robin, fairly regularly because that duty is a very lonely one.

Sneaks into rooms he thinks are unoccupied at the Invincible to use the showers. He cleans up after himself and has managed to not get caught in the months he's been here.

Contributes to the newbie orientation app on the tablets as well as the logbooks around town. Sifts through the garbage at the Invincible's kitchen to procure compost material for Misty's garden. He also salvaged usable lumber from the wreckage of the Boathouse this month for the greenhouse. Put together first aid training to occur along with Javert's weapons/combat training classes.

He does a lot around Beacon, occasionally goes on explorations in groups. Not because he's uninterested (he's very keen on exploring), there's just a lot to do around town.
LANTERN
Like so, there's a ring in the top that Riku hooks to his belt loop so it's often hanging from his hip.
APPEARANCE/STYLE
So, his hair. Started out with the shorter hairstyle on the right, it's grown out in the past months to resemble the images on the left.

May also wear blue jeans and a white t-shirt. Around halfway through the Bury A Friend event wears his bracers regardless of outfit.
LIVING ARRANGEMENTS
As the boathouse was mysteriously flattened during the thunderstorm this month (but not because of it), he is homeless and currently sleeping on a couch in the Invincible. This lasts until close to the end of the Bury A Friend event, where he's conspicuously absent around town.
IN SEARCH OF
Warmer clothes? A coat? Have mercy on this islander with zero fashion sense who is not used to winter and will be devastated by lake effect snow.

Maybe get this boy to relax???? ~~jk jk there's too much to get done, how can he relax and not feel guilty about it~~
OTHER

NAME Misty Day!

DAILY LIFE Currently rather unexciting. Time is spent fixing up her house, tending the garden(s) that are being built or starting out pretty much everywhere inhabited, browsing idly around the store, skirting the woods/beach, etc. Occasional special trips are made to the church and library, and once in awhile she'll pull up a seat at the Invincible - she's not a drinker and only talks to a handful of people, so she's just nursing a soda and...people watching? Trying to befriend the Rat King, wherever he may be. Lots of cooking, gardening, reading, ocarina practice, so on. (Sword and bow lessons might be added to the mix, in which case she'll be diving into them with gusto.)

LANTERN I'm having an issue digging up the one I actually picked, but along the lines of this, a little ornate, multiple panes, all different colors. Worn looped through her belt, so it just hangs off her hip and keeps you all dramatically under-lit.

APPEARANCE/STYLE Shamelessly lifting from her permissions here: 5"8', but nearly always wearing boots that boost her to at least 6"0'. Large, wavy, light blonde hair that reaches mid-back. Blue-green eyes, shockingly pale for a lady so in love with the outdoors. Willowy, fit build. Manner of dress can be gleaned pretty quickly by just pulling up an image search of Stevie Nicks and safely assuming any garment seen more than once is fair game; very boho, very witchy. Dresses, skirts, heeled boots, crop tops, shawls, layered necklaces and bracelets, seven rings on at basically all times, the occasional bauble in her hair, scarves, ornate / vintage belts, top hat, so on and so forth, with basically all colors / fabrics / textures on the table. Lady loves layers. Unless she's only just been working on something, she keeps thoroughly well groomed. Standards, dead or no.

LIVING ARRANGEMENTS Bridalveil Falls #3, a two-bedroom a-frame with a porch swing and a little greenhouse shaping up around back. Sports a very, very charming set of wind chimes. Living alone.

IN SEARCH OF More people, good god. She's wary (and for good reason), but the sooner people force her to form attachments and eventually, wow, Deal With Things, the better. Bother her, ask for help with things, any flimsy excuse is great. She's keeping very hushed about being a witch, so magic/empowered people are fun in a 'boy were I only inclined to tell you' kind of way - and there's valuable cr seeds there. Roommate, down the line...? People to listen to music and/or be productive with, people to eat her food, inspire passionate hate, eventually hold a hand - sky's the limit, honestly? I want all of the things. She's personable as hell under all the hard-earned isolation and baggage and terrible at pretending she isn't.

OTHER Like the one person still eating and sleeping like a normal person when she can, rationalizing it as still ultimately beneficial. Cajun accent (that I cannot link to because it's kind of an informed attribute in the show for explainable-but-boring reasons; I don't write phonetic accents anyway so like just follow your heart and at least remember she's Southern). Surprisingly competent across a tidy handful of fields for someone who doesn't present in a particularly In Charge way - partially on purpose, mind. This is like her fifth death and she kind of wonders sometimes if she's still in hell and this is some elaborate torture shot in the arm but it's cool she's fine none of it's killing her inside at all she is definitely not sitting on a mountain of unresolved bullshit and exhaustion.

NAME
Bruce Wayne

DAILY LIFE
Training quite rigorously in the morning- going on runs, weights, martial arts forms, etc where he can't be seen.

Washing up at the lake and raiding the Invincible for food that he can take away with him.

He keeps to himself a lot! Bruce tries not to go into town square if he can avoid it and is very rarely spotted near the bonfire. He combs through the backlog on the network and gathers information about which username belongs to which person- who they talk to, what they've said- and all of that goes into a series of files he's keeping. He goes to the post office, town hall, and the library. Local ghost basically! He never sleeps. You probably thought you saw a shadow out of the corner of your eye and dismissed it, but it was just Bruce wandering around in the dark like a goblin.

LANTERN
Looks like this! He makes a habit of carrying it while out and about in town, which happens almost never. But when he decides to dress like he's going to rob a bank Bruce's habit is to keep his lantern tied to his waist and covered in dark fabrics to blot out the light.

If you've interacted in person you sure can bet he's looked at your lantern and learned to identify you by it. Sorry.... he's badly socialized.

APPEARANCE/STYLE
You can take the billionaire out of the city but- I don't know where I was going with this. When he doesn't look like he belongs in a billiard room talking to your uncle about finances he spends a lot of time just wearing black.

It's too formal. Why does he look like he's going on a yacht you ask? He doesn't. He looks like he owns the yacht. He looks like he owns every country club in a 4 state radius. He's wearing the same cable knit turtleneck as the jcrew model on the billboard, why? He just feels like being cozy. Everyone likes to slum it on the weekends. How are his shoes still shiny? Who irons his clothes? What are you the cops? Why are you asking

LIVING ARRANGEMENTS
He lives alone in the museum because it's probably the furthest you can get from people while being the closest thing to a mansion

IN SEARCH OF
Yes!! SO! Bruce is going to start looking for people to train with, and because he's so damn secretive he'll want to spread this out and not go to fight club that's going on. He'll be lowkey looking for people with martial arts training, people who weapons training, and people who box, all of which he's familiar with but specifically people who don't have qualms with punching him in the face with feeling.

He's also keeping tabs on people in general. Bruce has always been eager to broaden his knowledge and learn new skills, so he's on the lookout for scientists, theorists, programmers, etc to help him grow. He really values people that are frank and honest without being unkind, and he knows he needs the influence of people that will make him stop and reconsider his actions before he leaps into them.

Also!! Orphans.
Opens arms.

OTHER

you thought i was joking about that last part didn't you

NAME
Vanitas

DAILY LIFE
Vanitas has an apartment in the Invincible which he doesn't always leave. The last month he has spent maybe 60% of his time actually laying in bed and not getting up or going anywhere or doing anything.

In fact one of the days he did, he destroyed the boat house. Oops.

He will make semi-regular trips to the Church when nobody else is in there and goes to sit on the trap door there. Sometimes he falls asleep on it. He'll leave quickly if anyone else turns up.

Otherwise if he gets up and goes anywhere, it's to hunt the general store for any sweet things. He'll also pillage from pretty much anywhere so if you left anything like that out and lying around it may have gone missing. He'll also pratice with his Keyblade in any open space that's not occupied, often down on the Beach, since it has the most open space and the sand provides added difficulty.

You're more likely to see his Unversed. They're actually all over the town so people can feel free to interact with them how they like. Think of them like wild animals that are just as likely to attack as avoid anyone that gets close. Yes you can kill them.

LANTERN
It looks like this, but the flame inside is black. It also casts less light than anyone else's in Beacon. He often has a Flood following him around carrying it.

APPEARANCE/STYLE
Black. Everything black. He's usually wearing his armor, but when he isn't in that he's wearing turtlenecks and black jeans and anything that covers him up completely but he can move around easily in.

LIVING ARRANGEMENTS
He lives alone in the Invincible, room 205. His Unversed guard it and will attack anyone who tries to enter when he isn't around.

IN SEARCH OF
More people for Vanitas to antagonize the shit out of. Literally if you need a character to fight with or to encourage yours to do something stupid, if you want to do any kind of murder/death plot, Vanitas is your guy. He literally thrives off of strife and because KH Lore he gets stronger when people feel negative emotions. He WILL call your character a dumbass and try to instigate them into giving in to their baser instincts.

That said, he could also use some positive influences? I like exploring the fact that he has no idea how to exist when he isn't doing the Villain Schtick (tm) but he's resistant to the idea that he could be a "Good Guy". He's not at all invested in the people in Beacon... boy needs some fuckin friends but he's too busy trying to piss everyone off for that to happen LMFAO

TL;DR Vanitas is in a really malleable place right now, he can go full villain or confused and poorly socialized kid depending on the situation. I'm open to either trajectory.

NAME
Jim Gordon

DAILY LIFE
Gets up, has a modest breakfast, and starts the rounds. Which mostly at this point consist of getting to know the town. He can frequently be found just pacing around, exploring the found areas like the village and the museum, etc. He'll stick his head in at the fight club but so far hasn't really participated.

His current project is working on getting rations going. There was talk about doing some kind of communal eating/soup kitchen thing going so that's on the list.

Mostly, he's watching what others are doing and trying to figure out what gaps need to be filled.

LANTERN
He has one of these bad boys and has fashioned it so that he can hang it off his belt.

APPEARANCE/STYLE
He still dresses like he's going to work... button downs and his trench coat, especially with the weather getting colder. He still always carries his gun around, but most often it's concealed under his jacket.

LIVING ARRANGEMENTS
He lives in room 304 of the Invincible.

IN SEARCH OF
If you need a surrogate father figure and aren't an orphan that's been adopted by Bruce Wayne then this guy has two thumbs and big dad energy!!!

I'm not really keen on him taking on a "leadership" role as it were, but if your character needs advice or direction he's pretty good at the whole Rousing Speeches thing. Also here to play support for other people's projects! And absolutely definitely Not Know About Vigilante Justice.

OTHER

Please continue to confuse the hell out of Jim by bringing him your wizards/witches/vampires/etc. He is literally the most normal dude and it's hilarious to me for him to be the one regular guy in the room.

NAME
Daylight vis Lornlit, the Sunsung. Kindled of Radiance vis Noxolarium, the Sundered Star and Kindled from Lorem Laurel. Usually goes by Daylight vis Lornlit or, simply, Daylight.

DAILY LIFE
Daylight spends most of his day in the village and at Beacon. Usually found at the very edges of the forests, sketching and drawing either the floral and fauna he comes across or hanging out under a particular tree, sketching and drawing up a storm in his sketchbooks. Usually found beside Coraline, doing friend things, or tagging along like a baby duck to his close CR (Rosinante (

callda), Riku (

equinoctials), etc) if they're cool with that!

Otherwise, when alone, Day can also be found staring wistfully at the stars when alone or just... moving aimlessly about to blow off some steam. Recently, he's learned about the armoury and travels, now and then, up there to keep his aiming skills fresh by using his Arc Gun on the targets. People who use the armoury, please feel free to note the very large burn marks on some of the targets.

Finally! Once a week: Daylight dedicates an entire day in hanging out with the forest spirits! He can be found in the forests, the post office, and the church doing the following: Leaving a paper flower to a forest spirit he met a few months back, having a duet with another spirit he met during scavenger hunt, and hanging out with Postmaster General, and checking to see how the Friend Under the Trapdoor is.

LANTERN
His lantern! The fire is suspended mid-air, just like the jewels, and the flames happen to glow a vivid purple. Appropriately sized so its, like, the size of an adult's torso.

APPEARANCE/STYLE
Daylight is a giant humanoid who happens to look robotic in appearance thanks to his father being a Galateion but not too robotic since he, well, looks human enough. His armour and plating comes in the colours red and gold, obnoxiously so. Due to being a hybrid with his mother being a human/technorganic, this does mean he looks more 'human' in appearance compared to the more fantastical looking designs that a Galateion could sport like, say, extra arms or a laser cannon mounted on his back. The little things.

In his avatar holoform (also known as avaform for the sake of abbreviation), Daylight takes the appearance of a young man with dark hair and darker eyes. In this form, he prefers wearing travel-ready clothes since it reflects his need for exploration and excitement. Things like bomber jackets, fingerless gloves, hiking boots - The works. He prefers the clothes to be dark in colour, often in the colour of the earth or the ground in order to blend into the crowd more easily. ( avaform link! )

LIVING ARRANGEMENTS
He's roommates with his best friend, Coraline (

primordialerebus), in Miner's Castle, #5! It's a two bedroom cabin that has a cute little sign that says 'Welcome'! sign hanging outside, with little doodle versions of the pair drawn underneath the word. They, um, had to steal a bed from one of the nearby houses to make an approaperitlye sized bed for Daylight.

IN SEARCH OF
Things that are lierally his size please help him.

OTHER
Mandatory 'Daylight is ten feet, five inches' notice for new people.

Daylight cannot see the colour yellow after his first death so if your character is blond/e or wears lots of yellow or has anything important in yellow - Please let me know so I can have Daylight note the absence in his tag! It's a fun thing for me to play around with during interactions.

Daylight is a big believer of being friends/allies with the forest spirits! Catch him always suggesting they try to reach out to the spirits for help in terms of information or things.

He's been getting notably antsy, lately, thanks to the events happening as of late + his wanderlust getting the better of him now since he has a routine. He would like to travel and scout around soon but is trying to figure out what to do exactly besides just... run into the wilderness.

Big projects I'm planning to have Daylight do in the following months: A memorial flower garden to collectively represent those who have been lost or are now gone + An attempt to broaden the knowledge of forest spirit language.

NAME
Kol Mikaelson.

DAILY LIFE
tbh Kol spends his days either in the Library trying to find books to read (whether they're story books or history books, it depends on the day), trying to learn more about magic (and how he can be a witch again—in the previous afterlife he was stuck in, he could tap into some magic I think???), swinging a baseball bat around at the baseball park, and studying the spirits.

When he's not busy being a nerd, he's also trying to train to keep his mind off of his blood cravings (hello, vampire!), whether it be by himself somewhere in the woods (or baseball field) or at the gym during Javert's training sessions. He's got a very aggressive style which relies heavily on hand-to-hand and using very basic weapons.

He's also slowly doing maintenance on the Auditorium (interior over exterior for now) to help with his blood cravings. He broke a window (still unfixed) when he first arrived. A note about the Auditorium is that it's spelled to keep people out, so finding Kol here would be next to impossible.

LANTERN
This thing. If I don't mention where it is in a tag, just assume it's hanging off his belt. If his life source wasn't dependent on it, he would've thrown it at someone by now.

APPEARANCE/STYLE
The running joke with me is that Kol's shirts are always getting ruined or are oversized! Otherwise, he dresses pretty snazzy. Think comfortable jeans, tight shirt, sometimes a stylish jacket, and boots. His clothes are often pretty functional, have pockets (yay), and are clothing pieces he's never afraid to get dirty.

Noticeably, his fingers are bare—he doesn't have his Daylight Ring (not that he needs it here). Kol's entire body is without any scars—his skin is perfect (because of his super healing). That said, he's going to get some bruises very soon that hopefully people will be able to notice! He's incredibly fit and well-toned, which is probably important to note since I want to try and have him shirtless just for the fun of it.

He has thick cropped brown hair (goodbye horrible haircut of season 4 I will not link) that he usually doesn't style. Brown eyes, what's meant to be an English accent, and stands at 6'0". Kol holds himself with confidence—it's very clear he's very comfortable with himself. He's flirtatious, warm, and sociable.

LIVING ARRANGEMENTS
He lives in the Auditorium with Davina Claire. It's lined with salt and spelled to basically keep people out iirc so finding Kol here is going to be a Challenge™.

IN SEARCH OF
tbh people to go on explorations and expeditions with—ultimately people who he trusts. Kol usually is the first one to take care of himself and screw everyone else over, but that's something I really want to work on as a character piece and have him put himself on the line for people he's come to care about!

Games! Kol's someone who is always super bored and acts out on that boredom with violence. He carries a baseball bat around, so he's interested in that… also playing dominos, playing capture the flag (thanks Jason!), and interacting with anything else that's actually Fun.

Kol's not really a big source of helping other people out, but I'm hoping to actually get him training people soon. Yelling at people and making them feel better about themselves will be something he eventually enjoys. Tutoring people?? Mentoring people?? He's a little brother in his family but he's a really good teacher when given the chance!

Kol's craving friendship and has quite enjoyed a lot of his conversations/interactions with people, even if he is guarded. It'll take a lot of time for him to even speak about his issues, but Kol's deeply insecure and doesn't believe he's worth much thanks to his family always betraying him and neutralising him (aka putting him in a coffin where they kept him for decades). :c

OTHER
Kol is over 1,000 years old and is one of the first vampires to ever exist in his canon. He was also a witch—a proud and incredibly strong one, right before his magic was stripped away by his vampirism. He knows A Lot of Shit about magic and spells, and is someone who created quite a lot of objects that were designed to harm invulnerable creatures like himself. Ultimately, if I ever can, he wants to be a witch again. Kol flaunts his witchiness in Beacon, but keeps his vampire side a secret due to the ill reception his kind (and his family) have received in New Orleans, and the realm in which he found himself in post-second death.

He's a character with a really brutal and violent backstory, so if murder and the like isn't your thing, let me know and I can keep the details out of my tags.

That said, he's also coming in with a cursed soul (he was hexed by the dead witches of the afterlife he resided in before coming to Beacon), which I'm hoping to trigger sometime soon once he has some concrete CR. This means he'll be aggressive and violent, and quite murderous at times. Right now, he keeps his aggression under lock and key—although his frustration is quite palpable at times!

Kol keeps his cards close to the chest and doesn't trust easily, but he is a social butterfly, socially manipulative, and can make people feel really comfortable in his presence. He's also not a bad person. All Kol wants is to be loved. D'aw. ♥

NAME
hermione granger

DAILY LIFE
for the most part, just getting settled. establishing a pattern of reinforcing wards (especially during the spooky hallucinations event), walking the space around her cabin, poring over her books. she's slowly getting acquainted with the town, focusing mostly on the library and the museum, and every so often venturing to the water's edge to peer curiously at the water. reveal your secrets, water!

LANTERN
it's a copper lantern, one very similar to the lanterns used at hogwarts. it looks like this.

APPEARANCE/STYLE
she's living out of her bag, so it's very much a collection of denim and earth-toned blouses & jackets. exhibit a, exhibit b, exhibit c, exhibit d

LIVING ARRANGEMENTS
she's living in the village in a one-bedroom a-frame. icly, she doesn't want roommates. oocly, i like making her suffer. she does have the expandable wizarding tent which i'll have her pitch in her backyard at some point which can sleep... a stupid number of people, i'm happy to have her host a witch's bed and breakfast for plot reasons.

IN SEARCH OF
icly: a way home. a nap. a nice bath. for things to not be Disastrous all the time??
oocly: i just want people to make her think. challenge her opinions, tell her she's wrong! she's very easy to wind up (as ambrose got to find out in her intro) and especially stubborn & opinionated — but equally eager to help and especially compassionate. come find whatever side of the coin you like.

OTHER
i'm on unofficial hiatus through the end of the month so i won't be able to start any new plot things until november, but i very much want to! do all the things!

NAME
Xayah

DAILY LIFE
She doesn't do much. Or rather, as much as she used to when she was alive. She got a thick diary that she'll write in what happened here because she doesn't trust the network. If they get reset, Keeper will probably delete everything they've come by- for the sake of others "having fun exploring". Fuck that. She's writing all that shit down and is going to make sure that Forest spirits don't find it so easily.

She goes back and forth between the Village and the Beacon daily, and goes to inspect situation around Museum every other day. She spends a lot of time either in forest or on top of buildings just watching things and thinking. She got injured recently from the Ferry crash so there has been a little less of building climbing and more of drinking.

She *sometimes* spends time at the Invincible, but she's not good at making friends with people (she has bad history with humans), but she doesn't antagonize them either (like she used to). She just drinks. And thinks of the past. And she just doesn't wanna miss a bar fight if it happens.

LANTERN
Her lantern- I picked that because it represents her to a t- wild on outside, flower on inside.

APPEARANCE/STYLE
She wears all shades of purple and magenta, has tall ears, thin feet, claws, a feather cloak, leather leggings and yellow eyes.
For more specific reference: full body and few fan arts: without her cowl; just being pretty; just being dangerous

LIVING ARRANGEMENTS
She lives by herself in the village, Chapel Rock, #3, (the rooms look kinda like this, this and this). She doesn't spend much time there, but after being injured when Forest spirits went mad, she figured it's good to have a place to recover (especially when you're on your lonesome). She lives there alone.

IN SEARCH OF

Drinking buddies

Humans that aren't assholes

More frenemies

General compaionship?
She does really well by herself, but that makes her cold and apathetic whenever something big and bad happens to others.

OTHER
So brief summary (and explanation for that last line in "in search of") of her backstory is that human ninjas and shadow priests corrupted her lands, forests, and jungles and they ended up killing her. So her mindset is a bit of a "you humans are assholes and I don't really care what happens to you". So I kinda want to get her to have people she DOES care about. Because her only goal now is to get out of here so she can meet up with Rakan in the PROPER afterlife.

She says she trusts Keeper, and will never act out against her or speak ill of her- in public. But she thinks that both Robin and Will have WAY too many secrets that they are not coming clean with.

Oh! She can teach you how to aim and shoot. She pondered going to that armory place to train but- too many humans.

Her inbox, if anyone wants to hit her up about anything~

And you wanna know anything else about her, hit me up

WindsongWitch

NAME
Ignis Scientia

DAILY LIFE
He spends most of the day at in the Library or researching back in his house- mostly reading, making notes and using Will's map (he replicated it on piece of paper so he can write down on it).

When he's not doing what he considers 'work', he spends time baking, reading, visiting the Bonfire. He sometimes goes on a walk near the forest and he was involved in the expedition that found the armory. He doesn't hide his distrusts in Keeper and has gotten in a fight with her before (their back and forth is on her first Network post). Everything she says he takes with a lot of suspicion and has a feeling that every explanation she offers has layers of "BUT". He will not, however, rally against her because he doesn't want to be reset. ~~He has shit to do~~.

Other than that, if asked for help, he will gladly offer it. Places you can find him at most often are: house (with others), Library (reading) and Bonfire (he checks on Rastus from time to time).

P.S. Crashing the Ferry was both stupid and smart. He can't tell which one dominates though and it's kind of annoying. He hates grey areas.

LANTERN
His lantern is simple (although a bit way smaller in size than it is in picture). Hangs on his bet.

APPEARANCE/STYLE
Raised and trained to be Royal advisor, Ignis always strives to look presentable. His shirts, pants, and jackets are pressed (as much as they can be here), always clean; hair styled up, with a notebook on his persona. From accessories, he wears glasses, gloves and a necklace with a skull around his neck.

Reference pictures: one, two, three, four

LIVING ARRANGEMENTS
He currently resides with Noctis, Prompto, Nyx, and Luna in the Village. He has no complaints that he's sharing the living quarters with the others and actually prefers that they are all together in one place instead of being strewn around.

IN SEARCH OF
He just wants to meet and know people, help them if he can. While he is distrustful of Keeper, he doesn't want others to suffer, which is why is he keeping his act and temper in check around Robin. He wants to explore further into the forest, even though winter is around the corner and it's going to be near impossible but he wants to do it. He wants to make plans in the long run about World Eaters, to discuss what they are, throw some theories around about how they came to be and all of that.
Also, he just wants to find more coffee people to hang out with. He will even serve you the drink in his new very handy set :D

OTHER
Nothing that comes to my mind. You can read up on some info about him here and send him messages here. He's always aviable for chat.

NAME
Mollymauk Tealeaf
DAILY LIFE
Molly spends most of his days running around Beacon, unable to stand still or be in one place for very long. He likes to insert himself into people's business and has been known to set up Tarot readings in random places for people to stumble upon him because it's funny. He keeps tabs on all of his close CR and will often wrangle them into shenanigans if any present themselves- shenanigans being anything that's random and fun like idk drinking games or exploring or anything silly and random.
LANTERN

It's fancy.
APPEARANCE/STYLE

Molly is 5'11 worth of ostentatious lavender tiefling. He dresses in a ornate magenta coat covered in various symbols and designs, knee-high boots, diamond-patterned pants, and a white shirt that's usually always open. He is covered in various scars along his arms and chest and has one very long, very recent and jagged scar from the center of his chest to just below his ribcage. He has a peacock tattoo on his neck that extends across his cheek and his right arm has two snake tattoos curling around his arm and terminating into two red eyes on the top of his hand and his palm. He has another red eye on his neck that's visible and worked into the peacock tattoo.

His horns are heavily pierced and baubled up and he has a long tail with a spade at the end.

He speaks in a really questionable Irish accent.
LIVING ARRANGEMENTS
Molly lives in a room at the Invincible alone, but would love roommates. Being alone is bad.
IN SEARCH OF

Friends! Shenanigans! Anything to stave off boredom. Molly works best when he's active and wrangling screw-ups and since he can't wrangle the whole lot of you fuckers, he'll settle for doing this on an individual level. He has a tendency to try and knock haughty people down a peg so if you're grumpy or generally unpleasant in his direction, he'll make it his life's goal to humble you.
OTHER

He's a giant lovey, overly affectionate cat. Be prepared to have your personal space violated constantly.

He also has two years worth of memories and lies A LOT about his past because he doesn't want anyone to know about his Dark Secret.

Edited 2019-10-21 20:51 (UTC)

NAME
Eleven

DAILY LIFE
Eleven is used to having a bit of a strict curfew, with a network of places she wasn't supposed to go to (Life can be dangerous when you're a secret government experiment that's supposed to not be around anymore). Given that there is no day-night cycle, she sadly can't even push the limits of curfew like a rebellious little teen.

Surprisingly, one of the fixtures of her routine are her studies. Eleven is having lessons at the library with Peter. She's been nearly non-verbal up until two years ago, and relishes in learning the basics that children her age would have long since learned in school. They go for ice cream after. It's super cute.

Eleven can also regularly be found training in weapon use with Kettara. Currently, there's a lot of quarterstaff-ing going on, and Eleven isn't very good at it yet. Mainly, this is so she will have a way to defend herself should her powers fail. She once tried some hand to hand self defense with the Soldier, but that backfired spectacularly, and she hasn't really dared try again.

Other than that, she can be regularly found just wandering the known and safe areas of Beacon. It doesn't appear that she needs constant company or attention, though is always happy to come across someone in her quiet wanderings. She'll be a bit wary of people she doesn't know yet.

She looks sadder if she doesn't think someone is watching her.

LANTERN
Eleven's lantern is blue, and if you're paying attention you might notice it's the same blue as the hairtie she wears on her left wrist. Notably, the lantern has some signs of wear and tear - a few dents and scratches, some rust, some chipped of paint. It's been through things. Most of the time, Eleven seems to be wearing it on her waist, tied there with a length of rope. Sometimes, the lantern is floating though, with Eleven holding on to the roap as if the lantern were a balloon.

APPEARANCE/STYLE
Left to her own devises, Eleven will favour baggy, slightly oversized and practical clothes, though it also seems she really likes flannel quite a bit, as well as some colour and patterns.

Her hair is a pretty simple brown bob that can look a little choppy. Almost as if it was kept shorn short for years, and she's now growing it out but her adoptive Dad wouldn't know what a hairdresser was if you spelled it out to him.

Other features include a tattoo on the inside of her left wrist that reads 011, a blue hair tie she always wears on that same wrist and never seems to take off (or wear as an actual hair tie), big brown eyes and such a cute smile if you can coax it out her.

In Beacon, Eleven has also gained a small beak-like cone worn over the nose and mouth like a miniature plague doctor mask. She's got it from Misty during the Corpse Flower Fun Time to help with the stink (the cone can be filled with herbs for the scent), and Eleven has taken a bit of a shine to it. She will be wearing this and then quietly appear behind people like the creepy little murder child she is.

LIVING ARRANGEMENTS
Eleven lives at Miner's Castle #2 with Nancy Wheeler and Steve Harrington. She calls it "Castle Miners" - like Castle Byers, her friend Will's hideaway from back home. It doesn't seem that Eleven spends that much time there, though.

For fun I'll tell you it's because she feels guilty about taking up space in what Nancy and Steve clearly expected to be a two-person-living situation in a two-bedroom cabin. That, however, isn't something she'll share with people. Consequently, she's not really been personalizing her livingspace quite yet.

IN SEARCH OF
Eleven really likes to learn and help, so if anyone is willing to show her things, she'll be happy to patiently hang out and listen. Careful though - if she likes you or thinks you know what you're talking about, she might parrot you a bit and take what you tell her at full face value for better or worse. She's impressionable.

I'd also love for her to find some people who teach her a little more about just being a kid even in this dark, bleak place.

And people who encourage the use of her powers, always.

I also really want her to gain the confidence again to willingly go into the Void (needed: A blindfold and some form of static noise, like from a radio, the humming of an open fridge, steadily rushing water), for which she'd need someone to try and find through the Void, as well as someone to be with her and communicate with in the physical world.

OTHER

NAME
matthew michael murdock, though he's mostly just told people his name is matt, and he has yet to tell ANYONE his last name is murdock. was referred to as "the devil of hell's kitchen" in a few newspaper articles but he has similarly not told anyone about that either.
DAILY LIFE
matt has a general routine, and lots of places to fit in some easy hand-waved cr. he goes to the church daily and spends about a half hour there. he spends most of his time there praying but nothing interesting to over hear, it's just a bunch of hail marys and our fathers. then he hits the invincible for some sort of meal and will invite others to eat with him if they're around.

he keeps up with his training in secret with Elektra, something daily or close to it. he takes the tree baby on a walk fairly regularly, and will linger at the treeline long enough for the mandrake to get some exercise. he likes to wander and explore and can show up some pretty odd places for a blind guy. you should do the right thing shepherd him back to town! poor thing, must be lost.

also he likes to bartend at the invincible. most of the time he hands out ridiculous drinks nobody would want. he won't give alcohol to the teenagers but he will turn a blind eye to them grabbing something. if someone seems to especially need it, he'll grab food or drink for them.
LANTERN
i dunno it looks like a lantern lol
APPEARANCE/STYLE
matt has sadly found the store lacking in snazzy lawyer suits so matt is a little "dressed down" for his usual tastes. that said he still looks overdressed — nice slacks, plain button ups, a tie and some sweaters now that it's getting cold. shockingly none of these are in bizarre colors or prints...

bc he accosts random strangers at the store about the color of items he likes. if you want to handwave him doing just that, lemme know!! pretty much all of the time, he has sunglasses on. if there is any time he is not wearing them, i will mention it, so just assume he's wearing them!

also he has a random collection of head-to-toe black that he keeps stowed at home. huh, wonder why he needs that. :0)
LIVING ARRANGEMENTS
matt stays in a one bedroom a frame in the village. there used to be a flowerpot on the porch, but it's since moved inside since it's starting to get cold. he keeps the curtains drawn and it's pretty dark in there because he has no need to light it. if you want to hang, you might need to bring your own torch. notably the entire bathroom set is salmon pink. matt is currently not aware of this. there's also very squeaky boards in the porch and the stairs!
IN SEARCH OF
& anyone that can make him come out of his shell a little. matt gets along with most people in beacon but he doesn't have that many friends and it's 100% his fault but i'd still like him to have some stronger connections!!!
& any wayward children that bruce &/or gordon haven't adopted yet. he connects with children more easily than he does adults
& people to go on explorations/expeditions with! it's a pretty good opportunity to get a bead on there's more to this blind guy than he's letting on and matt wants to do his part to help!!
OTHER
matt can speak english, spanish, french, (and he knows latin but that's not really helpful). he's happy to use any of those languages if it's the primary language for another character. also, he has a really soft speaking voice most of the time.

NAME

M.K. (We'll never know what it stands for, THE MYSTERY LIVES ON.)

DAILY LIFE

M.K. enjoys exactly three things: arguing about absolutely everything, charging off into the forest alone to test his luck, and avoiding his feelings by doing everything other than actually feeling them. You can spot him at the Invincible drinking more than he probably should, keeping up his training regimen in the rec center or on the beach, getting bullied by Riku, and overhear him playing around with the text-to-voice function on his tablet. He mostly only participates in community projects if someone asks him to (ask him!! get that cr!!).

He's more curious about this world and modern Earth than he lets on. Though he doesn't know how to read (reasons he prefers face-to-ace over a heavy network presence), he likes to poke at technology and books in the library, and ask people random questions about what it's like growing up in a non-feudalistic hellhole.

LANTERN

Something like this.

APPEARANCE/STYLE

~~Don't worry, fellow ItB fans, he's not wearing the fluffy pauldrons anymore, REJOICE.~~ He has set of leather armor and a fair bit of weaponry to go with it thanks to discovering the Armory that he'll suit up in when he thinks there might be a need for it, but otherwise he goes pretty casual, i.e. jeans and a sweater, or sweats when he's working out. This is a guy who stole clothes off a dead body once. He's not picky.

The longer sections of his hair used to have dreads, but most of it's come out now, and he'll usually tie it back most of the time. If he's feeling really fancy, he might color sections of it red if he ever stumbles into some good dye. *__*

LIVING ARRANGEMENTS

He used to stay in the Invincible, and now he shares a cabin in the village with another post-apocalyptic kid, Clarke Griffin! He'll stay over in either place depending on which side of town he has business in that day. Thanks to the Oct event, he's been sticking closer to the bonfire and the bar, but overall he more often sleeps in the village.

IN SEARCH OF

The meaning of life. A meaning. Any kind of meaning, really. Or is it better to be dead? He's kind of a sad person, it's a thing. Deep down he'd like a better life for himself but doesn't think he has anything left worth fighting for after he bit the big one. Change his mind?

On a less sad sack note, sparring partners! Explorer buddies! People with weird powers of their own! People who think his powers are weird? Fellow shit disturbers!!! OOCly, I'm down for CR building of all kinds. :3 Ngl, he wouldn't complain if a one-night stand came his way, either. If you seem promising, feel free to assume he's 100% checked you out at some point. Look, he's a healthy young man, can you blame him.

OTHER

You can find his character info here. He has a pretty deliberate pattern of scarring if you happen to catch him in short sleeves.

NAME
Prompto Argentum

DAILY LIFE
Were he not living in perpetual darkness, Prompto might be taking photos of everything. As it is, there don't seem to be anything resembling battery chargers anywhere and there's the issue of a lack of daytime, so he's only occasionally photographing stuff, and mostly near the bonfire or torches.

Other than that, he's just been poking around the village and getting a feel for what it's like, but he's going to start looking for projects to help out on so he has something to do with himself.

LANTERN
This, only with a leather strap instead of a metal loop on top.

APPEARANCE/STYLE
His preferred style is punkish, and he prefers tighter-fitting clothing and especially likes sleeveless shirts, as he enjoys showing off his arms. And whatever's going on with these pants. Closer view.

His hair is messily styled into something of a fauxhawk. It looks kinda like this down.

He has a fairly large barcode tattoo on his right wrist, but he usually always wears a wristband or five to cover it up because he really doesn't like it.

LIVING ARRANGEMENTS
Currently, he lives with Nyx, Luna, Noctis, and Ignis, and he's pretty happy with that arrangement.

IN SEARCH OF
Distractions, interesting things to photograph, people for him to be friends with because he can count the number of Actual Friends he's made in his whole life on one hand. Please love him.

OTHER
Speaking of friends, Prompto is usually a very friendly and upbeat--if very dorky--person. This month's got him down due to the hallucinations, the fact that he's died, and some stuff that happened recently back home, so he's been acting a little more reclusive than he normally does. He'll bounce (mostly) back soon enough.
