CHARACTER PLOTTING


CHARACTER PLOTTING

Welcome to Viva La's Character Plotting post! This is a permanent post that will be re-linked at the beginning of the month where players can workshop character concepts and plan CR or plots.

Players are encouraged to look through and comment on past and current entries made by others. While this is not required, we recommend having a frozen comment reply on your top-level to use for noting potential connections or plans.

OU CHARACTERS
OU (Original Universe) characters are apped to the game unchanged from their original source material. Original Characters (OCs) who are pulled from their respective, original setting are included in this group. OU Characters reach Esthere through the Empire’s use of the Servant’s Gate, a powerful portal that draws people from other worlds into this one. The Empire has set the gate in an enclosed room where they will immediately subdue the target, strip them of all their gear, and press them into servitude. But, the gate doesn’t always work as intended, so characters may arrive somewhere outside of the room and manage to escape before being enslaved by the Empire. Either way, the characters will come in either as established Crimson Corsairs who are just stepping into the spotlight having been found or liberated prior, or newly-found or liberated members who are joining the Crimson Corsairs. OU characters can use this post to seek potential CR or preestablished CR if they’re coming in as more experienced members.

AU CHARACTERS
AU (Alternate Universe) characters are characters from established canons (including original settings for OCs) whose backstory has been adapted to fit within the game setting. For AU characters, they may resemble their canon counterparts quite a bit, but they were born in the world of Esthere and have always lived there. AU characters are encouraged to use this post to develop who they are and what their place is in the world, which could include things like familial connections to other AU characters and achievements prior to the start of the game. AU characters will either be established members of the Crimson Corsairs who are just now stepping into the spotlight, or they can be green recruits who just joined up.

Indeed he is! He also has some mystic ability! ...in which he makes technical gadgetry (largely weapons, let's be real) out of mystical energy/hard light. Fun stuff!

The Empire's done him dirty so he's paranoid about people taking interest in his work, particularly because he doesn't want someone taking his ideas and worse, using it to make things that will hurt them later- but he really does like talking about technological things with people if they're genuinely interested! And he'd probably warm up easier to Rezo when he realizes the guy really is new to these sorts of things.

He's canonically done research into bombs and guns (for... some reason) so that and whatever he's heard about in Esthere will be the upper limit of his knowledge... But I don't think the Empire would have let him dick around with engines and things much. So yeah, a lot to learn!

Donnie's largely self-taught and very intuitive. Rezo will definitely get bonus points for being an adult who's eager to listen to him ramble about stuff. *_*
