۵ NAME: Amy
۵ CONTACT:
۵ TAGGING STYLE: EST; slow-to-medium most days with boomerangs when I can manage them; brackets or prose, I tend to match my partner.
۵ ABOUT: I work for a major university in Indiana, so my life basically revolves around university life and the wonderful college town I'm lucky to live in. I have a cat who is a delightful pain in the ass, an adoration-bordering-obsession for fountain pens and bullet journaling, and have recently swan-dived into the world of tabletop gaming via Call of Cthulhu. My major fandoms are Star Wars and Marvel, so those frequently come up in conversation, and I like to play a lot of board games.
BUFFY
۵ NAME: Buffy Summers
۵ CANON: Buffy the Vampire Slayer
۵ SUMMARY: Who is Buffy Summers? She's a California Girl turned Vampire Slayer who died and saved the world a lot. She has a Chosen One complex and is used to having the weight of the world on her shoulders... so being in Beacon is actually kind of like a vacation. Minus the fun in the sun.
۵ INBOX: Here
۵ LINKS: Permissions — please check out both Abilities and Fourth Wall!
۵ DESIRED CR:
— Scooby Gang 2.0: The Slayer might walk alone but Buffy is nothing without her friends. She needs them to have her back, to see her as more than just a tool to fight back the darkness, and to give her a reason to keep fighting.
— Hey I Died Twice: Anyone else want to talk about the whole We Died thing? Because she's on her 4th Death and she's got a lot of perspective on things. She was even pulled out of her final rest in Heaven and went through some bad depression afterward, so she has things to say about their present situation.
— Bad Decision Pals: Who wants to venture into the forest and poke a sleeping monster? Try to wade the river? Go exploring again and again despite that whole death issue? They're not going to get answers if they don't break a few Beacon Bits.
— Training Partners: Sparring partners (any superstrong folks, yes please), people to put her through her paces, etc.
۵ UNDESIRED CR: Super antagonist/negative CR is the only thing I'm not into right now, but we can absolutely do more mild levels and work up to the big stuff.
۵ PLANS: Buffy is presently settling in after having arrived this month with her trusty scythe. Some stuff I'd love to explore with her:
— Investigating Beacon: Buffy's used to getting her investigation on and Beacon is more of the usual weirdness for her, just less Hellmouthy, more Interdimensional Afterlifey. Especially after being part of the Dream Team at the Lighthouse, she's going to be very interested in what the heck is going on here. Who else is getting their research on? Scoobies 2.0, assemble!
— Exploring: There are monsters in the woods? Cool, let's go find them, and find all the other hidden parts of Beacon. Who else wants to be dumb and get killed a lot?
۵ ANYTHING ELSE?

And that childhood was spent being trained in monster fighting so the monsters didn't eat him -- so if you want someone going off into the woods to combat monsters or try and play peace maker with the not-so-bad spirits then Jason is on board for that too. It's sort of his canon's entire thing. He's also been helping with the sparring/weapons training classes that Javert organized and is DEFINITELY more durable than most of the formal mortals. I hope we can continue to thread with them and grow their CR. :)
Maes: This is TECHNICALLY Maes's second death since he died before I app'd him into the LAST game, and then I brought him here with that CRAU established. So he had to die in the last game to come here. It took him about a year to come to terms with the fact that he was dead, though he still tended to deny that there wasn't a way to somehow make it back to his family. He also met with some cross canon CR that helped him process some of that and be more comfortable talking about it -- so he's always been kind of interested to learn how others deal with their own death.
He's also new and I am game for having him explore crazy places. He's especially good at investigations, clues, and solving puzzles so definitely a good addition to a fighty team that might overlook things like that.

there are a few things that peter tends not to talk about unless ... super prompted, but HONESTLY i kind of want peter and buffy to bond at some point about ~responsibility and ~saving people. I DON'T KNOW how that would come about, but i want it. and just bond in general tbh.
...and also bad decision pals.
idk just give me buffy is what i'm saying
no subject
This is also his fourth death! YAAAY bonding. ANd they need more heaven talk
BAD DECISION PALS you know what, he is so GOOD at bad decisions, and he's gonna be so HERE for all your exploration needs. Cas wants to figure this place out and if that means he's gotta fling himself at more death and danger, he's WAY too happy to do that.
Also sparring. He's good with a blade (pls don't stab him with it, he WILL die), and he's super strong, so he can definitely help out there.
Basically can I hog all your time all the time please and thank you.
Re: BUFFY
ELENA
۵ NAME: Elena Gilbert
۵ CANON: The Vampire Diaries
۵ SUMMARY: The cutest sad vampire you'll ever meet? Elena was a normal teenage girl until her parents died and she discovered that vampires existed. Fast forward three years and she's lost most of her family, numerous friends, and the love of her life, become a vampire against her will, and been killed too many times to count. Yet despite her crappy life, she's still full of compassion for others and loyal to a fault — she's died to save the people she loved, and that's just the start of her Bad Decision history.
۵ INBOX: Here
۵ LINKS: Permissions post — please review for vampire things!
۵ DESIRED CR: Friends! Enemies!
Lovers!To be specific:— Shoulder to Cry On: Elena has been through a lot of shit recently and hasn't properly processed her grief. She could really use someone to force her to face these things and/or help her on the journey toward healing.
— Someone to Take Care Of: What it says on the tin. Elena does best when she has someone else to worry about and look after. Friends, people who can't stand up for themselves, even just allies, they'll keep her from focusing too much on her own misery.
— Magical Types: Do you need any magical blood for spells? She has it in spades. Use it for anything except hurting people and she'll gladly donate to the cause, especially if it helps understand this weird place they've found themselves in.
— Blood Donors: A girl has got to eat, after all. Well, technically she doesn't here, but a hangry vampire is not something anyone wants to deal with, okay?
— Drinking Buddies: Alcohol helps curb the blood cravings and it's just not as fun drinking alone.
۵ UNDESIRED CR: Honestly, I'm game for anything except extreme negative/antagonistic CR. I might be up for that later on, but I'd like to avoid that particular brand of relationship for right now. We can definitely start laying groundwork for it if that's something you're interested in longterm, though.
۵ PLANS:
— Sad Girl Things: Elena's current daily life consists of helping around Beacon and pretending that Everything is Fine. She's become a professional at hiding her pain and grief, and while the lantern ceremony helped ease that ache a little, there's still quite a lot to bury under layers of other things.
— Holiday Festivities: I'd love for someone to get Elena involved with doing something for Christmas in Beacon. She's already going to be showing Jon what the winter holidays are like, so someone just needs to give her a little nudge to get her spreading the cheer to the whole town.
۵ ANYTHING ELSE?
no subject
She needs to work on her grief too, so it might be fun for them to process some stuff together. She's at least a little further along than Elena, but mutual orphans is always something to bond over.
Just gotta get past the awkward lol

Also I would love for Cas to be a blood donor, but they need to establish some good CR first. He wouldn't just give extremely potent celestial blood to just *anyone* y'know.
