CR MEME #2
Hello everyone, and welcome to The Next Night's CR Meme! This is a great opportunity for all players, new or old, to reach out to each other and find some fun connections or opportunities for threads, explores, and relationships of all sorts.
The process is simple: just fill out and post the form provided below, and tag around with your thoughts and ideas. Have fun!
PLAYER INFORMATION
۵ NAME:
۵ CONTACT:
۵ TAGGING STYLE: Your timezone, your tagging speed, your general activity and tagging preferences.
۵ ABOUT: Tell everyone a little bit about yourself!CHARACTER INFORMATION
۵ NAME:
۵ CANON:
۵ SUMMARY: An overview of your character!
۵ INBOX: A link to your character's inbox.
۵ LINKS: Any open toplevels, event starters, or anything else you'd like to include, like any relevant permissions or opt-out posts.
۵ DESIRED CR: What you're looking for.
۵ UNDESIRED CR: What you aren't looking for.
۵ PLANS: What is your character currently up to? What would you like to get them up to?
۵ ANYTHING ELSE? (it's the meme spot)
NPCs
CLARA
۵ NAME: CLaRA v4 but just call her Clara, really.
۵ SUMMARY: A persistently-upbeat robot and former lab assistant of Dr. Solis. She keeps the torch inventory, is fascinated by you people and your lanterns, and really wants to help everyone because you're all her friends whether you like it or not.
۵ INBOX: here!
۵ LINKS: Clara's inbox is always available, but she also has an open toplevel at the intro log for this month.
۵ DESIRED CR: Every single one of you. Seriously, she's a good resource for all sorts of things, especially relating to what's in Solis' lab - and boy, there is a lot in there that nobody's really tried to poke through yet. Not sure what there is to find? Just want to strike up a conversation at random? She's there for all of it.
۵ PLANS: Being friends, checking on all of you whenever she can, making sure you're safe and healthy. Learning about people and animals and what actual organic life is all about.
۵ ANYTHING ELSE?
no subject
۵ NAME: Lauren
۵ CONTACT:
۵ TAGGING STYLE: I'm in US Pacific time, and I reply to tags at least once a day, often quicker. That said, right now I'm mostly limited to evenings because my internet suffers and cuts out at random during all daylight hours. They say they're fixing it this week. We'll see.
۵ ABOUT: Avian ecologist and scientific illustrator, I also love plants and gardening, cooking, Dungeons and Dragons, and science fiction. Currently enjoying Lovecraft Country, obsessed with Kingdom 24/7. Don't ask how many hours I've put into Mount & Blade 2: Bannerlord because the game isn't even full released yet and nobody has any need to play an early access game this much.
۵ NAME: Rosinante Donquixote
۵ CANON: One Piece
۵ SUMMARY: At over 9.5 feet tall, he's hard to miss around town, so even if you've never tagged feel free to assume your character has at least seen him. Smokes like a chimney, always falling over and terribly clumsy, tends to hang back and listen more than he talks. But he's been in Beacon since the first day after the last reset, and makes it his personal goal to help out in any way he can.
Pretty much completely inseparable with Law so if you've seen one you've also seen the other. When he's not immediately next to Law he's probably with Mary or Will. For someone who's spent most of his life alone, he's pretty much never alone now.
۵ INBOX: Here!
۵ LINKS: I'll have a toplevel at the upcoming event but nothing recent otherwise. That said, I'm happy to backtag to eternity and if anyone still wants in on the carnival event I'm all for it. Otherwise, HMD/permissions/warnings can be found here.
۵ DESIRED CR: As someone with a pretty deep knowledge of the history of the current incarnation of the town, as well as a pretty solid gauge on what's known so far, he's a good one to go to if you need some direction or ideas, or just want to talk about how to handle the long-term World Eater problem. He's been pretty invested in all that from the start. He's also a big help in exploring if anyone wants to go check out the remaining hidden areas in the forest and needs a tall tank of a dude with lots of ammo on him.
I'll also add here that if you want to befriend him, patience and persistence are key. He's nice by default, but he doesn't open up without actual literal months of earning his trust, so anyone willing to put up with that, please come to him.
۵ UNDESIRED CR: Nothing really! I'm open to everything.
۵ PLANS: He's just gotten back from an explore where they discovered a train station while looking for signs of what might have happened to the Wild Hunt. I'll be putting up a network post to discuss this later today. But in that, I definitely also welcome anyone who wants to talk about future explore directions, or even what else should be done long-term about some of the things that have been found recently.
He also definitely wants to get back down to the Helix Station asap because there's useful stuff in there, and he wants to make sure Weaver has what she needs since her robot-making skills are one hell of an asset. They also had the skills and the tech to get specific items from people's home worlds, and he'd really like access to that. Anyone science-minded who wants to come along would be a big asset because while he's pretty bright, he tends to accumulate a ton of information and then not know what all to do with it if it gets technical.
۵ ANYTHING ELSE?
ok but he was actually smol once
no subject
Soldat also has promised to go back down to the Helix station and try to negotiate with the last big spirit down there... and maybe kill more mimic spirits. They can do that together maybe? He's not exactly a science guy but he knows a fair bit amount the tech, at least.

۵ NAME: Gemini
۵ CONTACT: PM me at this journal so I get notifs
۵ TAGGING STYLE: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. okay no really I can at least promise that I will tag back unless it's been a month and I've forgotten what the tag was from.
۵ ABOUT: Tell everyone a little bit about yourself! I'm old, I'm tired, I'm a transdude (they or him is ok). I'm a wfh small business owner with cats and a garden. My primary fandom is One Piece and secondary is Koei games and...that's about that.
۵ NAME: Cao Pi, style name Zihuan
۵ CANON: Warriors Orochi (3)
۵ SUMMARY: 3rd century Chinese emperor who took a left turn into a demon dimension, where he was killed by an 8 headed hydra snake monster. Loves wine and poetry, fluent in sarcasm, super big into scheming and planning and srategizing. Great at using his words, not so great at technology.
۵ INBOX: dink
۵ LINKS: I have nothing at the moment.
۵ DESIRED CR: I mean everyone literally but...it's always fun to see who he clicks with and who he rubs the wrong way. I like both.
۵ UNDESIRED CR: ships
۵ PLANS: Existing? He's going to post to the network soon to drum up a mission down to Helix Station, which he got one person onboard for and then I fell off the face of the earth for a month. He really does need to make sure they have ideas for how to move forward after realizing how screwed they would be vs a real World Eater and it's safe to assume he's been doing a lot of sitting around thinking and writing.
Let's generate some ideas! If there's an idea to float past him, if there's a question someone wants to ask him (since he's been here since day 1 and witnessed everything at the station portal from a safe distance), if him writing poetry in Chinese with a pen is interesting, or hey let's not forget the bottomless bottle of wine. That can always be a great springboard for just hanging around in the Invincible talking. I also need to do something with his hilarious clothing acquisitions from the portal, I read the log and laughed and then failed to act on it, I can still do so.

۵ NAME: RC
۵ CONTACT: Journal PM or
۵ TAGGING STYLE: Timezone is EST or EST/UTC−05:00 or maybe that's -4:00 until Daylight Savings Time is over? I'm not a speedy tagger but sometimes I'll manage a few a day. I work 8-12hr shifts 5 days a week so sometimes I miss a day or 2.
۵ ABOUT: I'm not really good at talking about myself so I apologize in advance. Hmm, let's see... I work a pretty stressful job in emergency communications/public safety. I actually went through the police academy but decided I had enough of getting shot at when I was in the Army so switched to a more behind the scenes role. I'm part of the Crisis Negotiations Team (CNT) as well as the Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) so sometimes it's not the usual daily task but a major incident. I have a 4 legged
dependentpup (Rusty) who keeps me motivated the days I don't want to get out of bed and deal with the world because it can be a lot sometimes.That said, I should come with a NSFW warning re: language if you do friend me on Plurk. I suck at warnings but I'm trying to do better. With what I've seen in rl, there really isn't anything in written word that triggers me though I abhor nonconsensual stuff while I do understand it might be a traumatic part of a character's past. I don't read as much as I should but I do watch more tv and movies than I probably should. Films/tv tend to provide a distraction as much as rp provides an outlet. Don't let my work history scare you; I'm low key and easy going, really. Yet I won't hesitate to say if something bothers me either. ...ok, I think that's a good stopping point?
۵ NAME: Shadow Moon
۵ CANON: American Gods
۵ SUMMARY: At first glance, Shadow might appear formidable given his stature (6'4" and muscular aka a human wall) and he doesn't constantly smile. Yet he is a good listener and does return smiles. He also likes to read and will probably be seen with a nose in a book aside from regularly working out. That all said, regardless of his stature, he might actually be dismissed or looked over but woe that person if they offend anyone he cares about. Really that's the only way to get under his skin.
۵ INBOX: Here.
۵ LINKS: Permissions / HMD / Application (includes housing and a pic of his lantern)
۵ DESIRED CR: Friends, enemies, frenemies.
۵ UNDESIRED CR: CR that doesn't go anywhere but I don't see that being a thing here. :)
۵ PLANS: Shadow is brand new so he's getting acquainted and will do something other than the TDM soon, I promise! I have him residing at The Invincible because The Landmark Inn is too upscale for him and The Village would be too close to his life with his once wife.
He also arrived with (CRAU) Jessica Jones so it's easier to keep an eye on her when she comes to the tavern.Also from the looks of it, he's got a quiet corner to himself with no neighbors at The Invincible.۵ ANYTHING ELSE?
no subject
Or meet the local dragon, that might also be fun.
I am friending you on plurk now ^^

۵ NAME: Gail
۵ CONTACT: cacopheny @ plurk
۵ TAGGING STYLE: PST, and I manage a round for Bucky/Soldat pretty much every day. Stone is more like once or twice a week, but I'm gonna try to be better with him. I tag throughout the day, as working from home has been kind to me in that way.
۵ ABOUT: Late 30s accountant sharing a condo in SoCal with three cats. I rewatch Marvel movies a lot and spend a lot of time playing with pixel animals.
۵ NAME: Bucky Barnes, going in this game as Soldat because real names are hard
۵ CANON: Marvel Cinematic Universe
۵ SUMMARY: A formerly brainwashed assassin who is still kind of piecing himself together after having his memories and personhood taken away by a secret government organization. He ICly uses "they" pronouns for himself (though very few people know this, and he doesn't really correct people), as a step up from "it" that he was using when he got here, and he's disassociated all to hell, but he's a good guy under the trauma. Beacon has been surprisingly good for him, he's a staple of the place these days.
۵ INBOX: Over here.
۵ LINKS: Top-level on the intro mingle. Lessons in spirit language and fighting from last month that I am still happy to take tags on if people want! His daily routine
۵ DESIRED CR: I'm pretty open. He needs people to look after, in particular, he's very much a mother hen about people in general but he needs special ones to pour more love into. People to challenge his warped self-image would be good. I'm not averse to negative CR, too, he could use people to be grouchy and irritable and suspicious at, if just to prove to himself he can be those things without automatically trying to kill them.
۵ UNDESIRED CR: No romance please, he is not in a position to handle that. (Also, he has touch issues.) Not super interested in anyone trying to set themselves up as an authority over him unless there's a ton of trust-building CR first. He finally stopped having handlers, I'd rather not go backwards in his development :P
۵ PLANS: He's going to be pretty active in the next event, he's aiming for continuing and improving their good relationship with the spirits, and I have like 3 explores I wanna do with him, I just haven't gotten to them yet :|
۵ NAME: Stone of Indigo Cloud
۵ CANON: Books of the Raksura
۵ SUMMARY: A grumpy but kind old man who is actually an alien dragon shapeshifter. He's completely colorless except for his eyes and he's liberal with the hugs and casual touches.
۵ INBOX: Over here.
۵ LINKS: Top-level at last month's carnival. He'll have something on the new event.
۵ DESIRED CR: Stone needs people to care for less because he needs help figuring himself out and more because otherwise he doesn't care. He's old and tired and needs motivation in the form of actual people. Right now he's kind of down to like one and a half, which isn't nearly enough to keep him focused on doing anything. Come let him granddad at you.
۵ UNDESIRED CR: Nada. I am open to all things.
۵ PLANS: I don't really have a ton of plans with him. Possibly some romance-type thing with Ashford. He'll be around in the next event and ready to help defend people from spirits if necessary, but he's only vaguely interested in what they're trying to do at this point.
۵ ANYTHING ELSE? I never have memes, but I always have this image to show people what his winged form looks like. This is not to scale. He is in fact bigger than this.

۵ NAME: carlee
۵ CONTACT: PM me, or
۵ TAGGING STYLE: EST, i try to get at least a few tags in a day but depending on how work or other factors are going i can get a bit slow sometimes.
۵ ABOUT: i work (currently from home) in expense payable for college bookstores, when i'm not doing that i like watching fairly niche shows or very popular shows (usually ones that were prematurely canceled) and talking endlessly about my opinions on them, listening to music, dancing (i've been trying to practice ballet/barre at home). i live alone with no pets (i've considered adopting a kitten but i haven't had a pet in at least 15 years and i'm worried i've forgotten how to take care of one).
no subject
۵ NAME: elektra natchios
۵ CANON: mcu netflix's daredevil
۵ SUMMARY: born and raised assassin who ended up dying to prevent the love of her life from getting killed instead (also to prevent the assassins who wanted to use her as their ultimate weapon from being able to do so, this ultimately didn't end up working out in canon but she's here now!). she's since found herself becoming more attached to the people here and trying to keep them alive (via working on lantern repair) and wondering how she became so damn responsible.
۵ INBOX: here!
۵ LINKS: i don't have anything current but i was definitely planning to top level with her on the event!
۵ DESIRED CR: anything! i'd like for her to get to know the people she doesn't know that well a bit better, especially those who have been there around the same amount of time she has. she's also been trying to be friendly/welcoming to new arrivals, which is a process that's going...well, it's going.
۵ UNDESIRED CR: n/a, gimme more.mp3
۵ PLANS: she and rosi had discussed trying to create a record/keep track of the post-revival effects people have suffered and i mentioned posting an event top level; that aside, nothing solid!
۵ ANYTHING ELSE? for your consideration: mr and mrs beacon:

۵ NAME: megara
۵ CANON: disney's hercules
۵ SUMMARY: sold her soul to save her ex's life, he turned out to be a two-timing ahole, she swore off love until she met the guy her boss was trying to kill so he could overthrow his dad, she ended up saving his life and dying as a result, now she's here trying to acclimate to the modern world and death.
۵ INBOX: here!
۵ LINKS: n/a at the moment but she'll either tag around or top level at the event/maybe also the intro log!
۵ DESIRED CR: anything, she's mostly kept to herself since dying.
۵ UNDESIRED CR: nada
۵ PLANS: nothing! let's change that.

۵ UNDESIRED CR: nah man hit me up whatever it is
۵ PLANS: he was recently involved in the train station discovery, and he's currently working on turning one of the empty rooms in the invincible into an infirmary/doctor's office with the meager supplies he got from the hospital. he's also interested in going back to helix to help weaver out.

۵ NAME: Keri
۵ CONTACT: keriseda @ plurk, feel free to friend.
۵ TAGGING STYLE: Oh good Christ it's been non-existent recently; I am working to resolve this but see below. IN GENERAL I am pretty slow, with sudden bursts of getting a million things done, and I am totally open to prodding so yes.
۵ ABOUT: I am a forty year old cis lady living with her best friend and her mom. I work in education technology so you can understand the kind of stress I'm under currently. I consume minimal media so assume anything I know about your canon is via osmosis. I have cats and a dog and this summer raised a bunch of monarch butterflies, it was a good time.
۵ NAME: Fitz Kreiner
۵ CANON: Doctor Who (expanded universe; the Eighth Doctor Adventures novels)
۵ SUMMARY: Fitz is half-German and from the 1960s, he plays guitar and sings, due to his canon being bonkers he's a clone, he tends bar at the Invincible, and he died in a Siberian ice cave in 1894 after throwing a grenade at a dinosaur.

۵ UNDESIRED CR: I'm open for anything, hmu.
۵ PLANS: I need to get myself back in the game, the start of the school year has messed me up good but I want to play with y'all and get Fitz going here. ICly I still want him to explore the water/sinkhole in the museum so let's get on that ASAP.
۵ ANYTHING ELSE? This is it, this is him:
