July 2022 Story of Us

Story of Us: July
Announcements and Feedback
Hello Folkies! This is our monthly Story of Us post where we get together to make game announcements, ask for any feedback or suggestions, partake in character relationship memes and open up our invites for the upcoming application cycle!

Check out the bottom of this post for important dates to keep an eye on!

Announcements Per Camp Camelot


FOR DAMSELS:

For people who are interested in signing their character up to be a Damsel In Distress for the month of August you will have until August 13th to sign your character up. Signing your character up means you are agreeing to have them put into a situation of peril at mod choice. We will always be sensitive to your hard-nos and make sure to keep your character away from anything that may veer towards that.

If you signed up your character for July and still wish to have them be a damsel in August: you do not need to do anything. However, if you don't want your character to be a damsel again in August - please comment on the Damsel page to let us know so we can remove their name from the list!

FOR CABINS:

We apologize for the slight delay on adding newer characters! Our Camper/Counselor page is currently up to date! If you want to remove/add anyone, you will have until August 13th for all finalized roommate situations. This includes adding any characters as counselors or campers.

PER AUGUST EVENT:

All event prompts from July carry over to August - including for new players accepted in this upcoming August cycle. To read up on those prompts, check out our plotting page here.

August will have its own unique set of trials so stay tuned!

As a general reminder, Camp Camelot will be dismantled on September 1st. These cabins will vanish into poofs of golden dust. So hopefully your characters are out of them in time or else they might wind up eating shit in the dirt.

From August 1st to August 12th, characters throughout Folkmore will be gifted a fox beret with a matching orange Camp Camelot shirt, a pair of orange shorts, an optional clip-on orange fox tail, and some nifty knee-high white socks with orange bands at the top. You will be provided with a set of orange hiking boots that, instead of ridges on the feet, have paw prints. These outfits will appear in a neat pile somewhere in your character's home and will be custom fit to their exact measurements and body types!

Feel Free to Comment

If you have any questions about anything going on in the game or need an update on a question that might have gotten lost between the cracks please use this space to ask down below!

Always remember to follow us on Plurk for game updates at [plurk.com profile] folkie!


Character Relationship Meme
It's that time of month to organize your thoughts and compile some plans with each other! This is an optional meme for players to get to know each other and draft up some ideas and keep up to speed on what everyone else is doing!

Copy and paste the following form and reply to the appropriate section down below. Have fun!


Invitations
Our game is invite-only which means in order to make a reserve or apply, you must have an invite from a current player in-game! Players are not required to give invites. Invites are open between the 22nd of every month and close on the 5th of the following month when applications open. All invites expire after that application cycle ends.

Players are limited to one invite per round unless they have purchased an additional invite slot through Spoons. If using an additional invite slot, please make sure to link to your purchase in your invite form.

Invites allow new players to reserve/apply to the game. Invites do not guarantee that new players will get in. Some invites may not be accepted and we will message players on a case-by-case basis if necessary.

Players only require an invite for their first application. Once they are a player in the game, they can apply as more characters at a later date. If a player drops completely from the game, they will require a new invite to get back in.

IF YOU DO NOT KNOW A PLAYER IN OUR GAME BUT ARE INTERESTED, PLEASE SEND OUR MOD JOURNAL A PM WITH YOUR HANDLE AND CONTACT INFORMATION FOR A REQUEST TO AN INVITE.

Ken Kaneki / Tokyo Ghoul / Familiar

[personal profile] anthropophagite 2022-07-22 01:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: juu
Player Pronouns: she/her
Player Contact: [plurk.com profile] vilani or pm
Preferred Tag Style: Action/Prose, both work but I usually do action.
Monthly Pacing: My usual pace is always all over the place! my tagging speed varies a lot, and I do not apologize for slowness and late tags. I work full time, I do art, there is always some RL stress - RP is for fun and to relax, and not the opposite. I may spend some days without tagging because of it. Naturally, if you prefer a faster tagger, it's totes fine!
OOC Limitations/Disinterests: No shipping/sex, Kaneki is taken.
Permissions: Permissions. Kaneki comes with content warnings himself, please read here.


Character Name: Ken Kaneki
Character Age: 18
Characer Species: Half-ghoul.
Character Details: Eyepatch on the left eye. For first impressions, check here.

Character Summary: "Rather than a person who hurts others, become the person getting hurt. A kind person finds happiness in just that". This is what kaneki learned from his mother, and he follows this. he is incredibly kind, gentle, he is shy and also awkward, very quiet and doesn't speak his mind. Tends to be selfless, doesn't have much confidence in himself and sees himself as weak, but even so he is trying hard to become stronger in order to protect the ones he loves. AND THEN HE WAS TURNED INTO A GHOUL who are cannibal people basically (no. They are not undead nor spirits) and... that... sucks a lot. Kaneki hates that ghoul part, but above all, he is SCARED of the ghoul part. He has to balance the fact that he is now forced to do something terrible, and the fact that ghouls aren't all monsters. Kaneki's life is full of suffering.

Character Role: Familiar.
Character Role Deets: Kaneki can turn into a centipede. He has a half-form that allows him to turn into a huge centipede-boy and also a full centipede form anywhere between 12 and 40cm. Kaneki hates his familiar form so I'm always up to have people interact with it more so he doesn't feel so grossed out. More details about the familiar form check here.
Character Living Quarters: uhhh he has been spending most of his time at Dirk's ranch but he has an apartment where he keeps all his food
Character Schools: Kuma Lisa, mostly taking literature classes. He also takes some classes over Agrona to learn how to fight better.
Day to Day Life: Kaneki spends a lot of time over Dirk's ranch, however he goes to school every day and likes to spend time at the library there as well. Because he cooks for Dirk, he also spends a lot of time looking up recipes and getting ingredients. And given he is scared of his ghoul side and his familiar form as well, sometimes Kaneki just goes out into the woods or secluded areas to train or transform when he is alone.
Current Mindset/Health: Surprisingly okay! Very happy too. He has a boyfriend (who is his Myth a d his soul mate) and it has been a really healthy relationship for him. Sadly Kaneki always ends up falling back into doubt and fear, so that kind of plagues him all the time - he is afraid of not being real since in their world, a version of them was left there; he is afraid this is all a made up lie by the Fox and he is afraid there is something nefarious going on. Kaneki also tends to starve himself, which will eventually lead to bad things.
Recent Developments: Boyfriend and soulmate and myth, so that part has been going very well. Natsume also found out Kaneki is a ghoul and... Só Kaneki has been terrified he will tell others or is like. Planning on killing him.
Goals For Your Character: To eventually bite someone because of course.
Problems With Your Character: State above in mindset section.

Wanted CR: I really want to get him settled with CR Kaneki can trust enough to open up more. He is introvert, has a very hard time getting close to people despite being nice to everyone and so I want him to meet others he can talk to, feel close to and be with. because Kaneki without people to rely on is like someone spiraling down he is terrible at being alone; kaneki has a lot of trauma going on and he is a sad boy who tries his hardest to be kind and gentle towards e v e r y o n e. He is very VERY lonely too, and while he has a hard time connecting to other people, he just wants to be loved.

- Non humans: Non humans, monsters, and alike. Negative or positive, it's all good.
- Monster hunters or people who'd not like to know there is a cannibal around GUESS WHAT MY ARMS ARE OPEN (kaneki's not so much )= )
- Mentors, parental figures, FAMILY. oh boy do you know how desperate kaneki is for those please adopt him
- Friends because FRIENDSHIP IS MAGIC even when your friend eats people so basically be his friend pls
- Big brother. Kaneki likes children and is willing to adopt younger kids and take care of them!
- Manipulation~ basically Kaneki is way too fucking nice and while that's!! great!! it also means there is a big chance here to manipulate this boy. Kaneki is easily manipulated and makes some bad choices in life; I'm 100% okay with someone making use of that.
- Training, because kaneki really wants to get stronger and get a hold of his powers better
- Extroverts! Someone to get him out of his shell. Look, I admit, it will be hard, he is a wallflower, but that of course means he needs someone to push him around and get him to do silly stuff
- BOOK CLUB. Kaneki loves books, if you mention them, get ready for him to nerd at you nonstop
- PHILOSOPHY TIME? Philosophy time. If anyone wants to have a more deeper conversation about nature and what makes someone a "person" he is your guy too. He has been transformed into a ghoul and then into a squid and then back into a ghoul THERE ARE A LOT OF FEELINGS HERE. Kaneki is also the epitome of loneliness and trauma, and he just... really is desperate for a connection, but tends to be quite nice towards those who feel the same as he do.
- Trauma train! Kaneki has SHIT LOADS of trauma, from parental trauma to dating trauma (last pretty girl he went on a day with tried to eat him), to loneliness, abuse, torture, etc, etc etc. Kaneki does not think he is traumatized but holy hell he is a mess. If anyone wants to try touching that - or even call out Kaneki on his denial - absolutely up for it!

Unwanted CR: none!
Open/Closed to New CR: Always open!

Steve Rogers | MCU | Legend

[personal profile] pursuitofcappiness 2022-07-22 02:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Xy
Player Pronouns: she/her
Player Contact: [plurk.com profile] assemble or other
Preferred Tag Style: N/A will probably start prose but match, though I do prefer to write in present-tense (and won't match because I'll inevitably mess up past)
Monthly Pacing: About usual! Might have a bit of a dip in the middle of the month for an on-call rotation.
OOC Limitations/Disinterests: Flirting is ok, but Steve is still actively trying not to catch feelings
Permissions: Link & this also has my permanent plot with me form.

Character Name: Steve Rogers
Character Age: 33? 34? But he also just turned 100
Characer Species: Human (enhanced)
Character Details: His impressions are here! But tl;dr 6' 2" bearded blond with lots of muscles and only buys shirts that are too small for him, smells like "a sturdy oak desk and duty."
Character Summary: History here

Character Role: Legend
Character Role Deets: Bright white wings, single ring of gold halo. Very classic angel look.
Character Living Quarters: Lapine - burrows. He is currently living with Tony (MCU) while Tony helps Steve dig out his foundation so he can stand upright in it.
Character Schools: Currently teaches at the camp for August (weekends) but I'm thinking that I want to put him in some cooking classes and enroll him in finishing his art degree somehow.
Day to Day Life: He just got his motorcycle so you might see him around exploring. He's also going to be at the hardware and home improvement stores a lot. He can also be found at camp on weekends, at a bookstore or library in his free time, or out running errands like getting groceries. If there's a gym, you could probably see him there also.

Current Mindset/Health: He's doing great!
Recent Developments: n/a
Goals For Your Character: I do want him to get to do a lot of retired relaxing things. It will be really nice for him to also be in part of like, a neighborly community? I guess that's what camp's for. He's been volunteering to do stuff lately so if you need help with something feel free to rope Steve into it.
Problems With Your Character: Nope he's doing great this month!

Wanted CR: Friends are always good! Also please I really want this sad cooking class to make dinner for a bunch of people and almost accidentally poison them lol. I am pretty open otherwise, hit me with anything!
Unwanted CR: Antagonists are fine but maybe enemies are a bit much right now.
Open/Closed to New CR: Good with anything/both!

sunny 🔪 omori (familiar)

[personal profile] oversleep 2022-07-22 02:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: ashu.
Player Pronouns: she/they.
Player Contact: [plurk.com profile] justaways, feel free to add me!
Preferred Tag Style: action.
Monthly Pacing: my schedule is unhinged but also, in my own world, i am a god of phonetagging.. so you will never know when you get me..
OOC Limitations/Disinterests: i am interested in everything, specifically darker, tragic and gruesome content...
Permissions: sunny's canon deals with a lot difficult issues, so i have an opt out page that i encourage you to look at since i want everyone to have fun and not be uncomfortable. sunny also has a permission/info post that is spoiler friendly. highlight any spoilers if you're curious to know more about him.

Character Name: sunny.
Character Age: 16, though he recently had his calendar birthday so i'm debating about making him 17.
Character Species: run of the mill ole human.
Character Details: ya boy has the most overactive imagination you can fathom.
Character Summary: at first, he seems like a shy and timid guy, which isn't wrong. sunny is extremely introverted, but when you actually start talking to him (and he talks back) you'll find he's a cynical teenager with a bleak outlook on life and a fascination for morbid things. he has a plethora of fears which he's just now realizing maybe he should try and overcome, but so far, it's not going so great. sunny loves videogames, shitposting on the internet, arts & crafts, reading, cats and comic books. his canon takes place in 2003. for more information, read his info/permissions.
Character Role: familiar (black cat). half form here, full cat mode here.
Character Role Deets: omori is a fussy little game where your choices will heavily impact what sunny does + the ending. i'm interested to simply just see how his cr effects him since he very easily could overcome all of his fears + trauma with the right cr build and influence... or he absolutely won't depending on how other characters influence him.. so let's play it out and see what happens.
Character Living Quarters: a treehouse in leshy by himself... he has not shared with anyone where he lives, but i fully embrace people just finding out where he's at if they'd like to harass him.
Character Schools: school is for the weak. that said, i'm all for someone bothering him to go to school again.
Day to Day Life: he's currently still in his hikikomori phase, so he rarely leaves his treehouse.. so he sleeps, he dreams.. when he's conscious, he draws, eats sometimes and avoids cleaning at all costs.

Current Mindset/Health: physically, he's doing alright, just needs to put on some weight. mentally, sunny has anxiety/depression, fears (agoraphobia, thalassophobia, acrophobia, arachnophobia and anything attached to his main trauma.) regularly, he day dreams and dissociates and sees/hears things that aren't real.
- he has a 12 year old version of himself named omori who never exactly "takes over" sunny (as in a split personality) but he's generally a stoic and not nice figment of sunny's imagination that is responsible for influencing his actions / giving him intrusive thoughts. omori's main role is to protect sunny be repressing harmful memories of his past, but (spoiler) should sunny ever confront the crux of his past and try to overcome omori's influence, omori's main goal will be to end his life.
- sunny also has a shadowy entity that represents his fears called something. it's hard to know if it's something of just his imagination or something real since it can interact with sunny by taunting him and even being physically felt by him. nobody else can see or hear it besides him, however. it's main purpose is to antagonize and taunt him.

Recent Developments:
- left his house, went to camp
- nearly drowned
- revisited bad memories in the fire
- decided camp sucks and is reclusing in his house once again
- almost made junpei cry over the internet
- wants kaneki to be his big bro but is too embarrassed about it

Goals For Your Character: What are things YOU as a player want to accomplish for your character? What storylines are you hoping to achieve?
Problems With Your Character: see above. kid is on the struggle bus.

Wanted CR:
- familial figures, which i don't think he will have a hard time having.. he's just extremely difficult to warm up to people
- is there a therapist in the house
- legend/myth he can link with, but i know that's going to be a long, long, long, long time coming
- give him a cute crush that he won't know what to do with
- adults that he can criticize
- anyone that will help him along the way (but be patient, he's stubborn as hell)
- some neg cr; people who can influence him negatively and make his situation worse

Unwanted CR: i am unstoppable
Open/Closed to New CR: i want everything all of the time.... an unsatisfied beast

Player Name: Wizera
Player Pronouns: she/her
Player Contact: [plurk.com profile] wizera or PM
Preferred Tag Style: Prose (but I'll do action, I'll just mess it up a lot)
Monthly Pacing: Should be at my usual pace this month.  As a practice, I strive to never leave a tag hanging longer than 24 hours.
OOC Limitations/Disinterests: While I love romance, I don't actually write smut.  I'll just do foreplay and aftercare, with a fade-to-black in the middle.
Permissions: Permissions meme here.

Character Name: Ariadne
Character Age: Nineteen
Character Species: Alastrian (Feel free to read my essay on Alastrian biology here.)
Character Details: She has knee-length hair, usually braided.  And if it's at all applicable to you...she looks like Natalie Portman, with gray eyes.
Character Summary: Link to her application here.  Basically, she's what would happen if Ariel from The Little Mermaid, Kes from Star Trek: Voyager and Trance Gemini from Andromeda had a child together.  Sweet and curious, but with a dangerous side.  Super eager to pass for Human and be part of your woooooorld!  She comes from a fantasy-medieval kingdom, so she's going to be doing a lot of curtsying until she learns better.

Character Role: Legend
Character Role Deets: Ariadne glows when she's happy.  And she's also slowly learning that she can manifest wings, but she hasn't quite figured that out yet.
Character Living Quarters: She's got a house in Leshy.  Details are here.
Character Schools: She's a part-time music teacher at Kuma Lisa.  And will probably start taking classes when she figures out how that works.
Day to Day Life: Ariadne's such a new arrival that most of her day-to-day is still being spent exploring.

Current Mindset/Health: Her health is good!  Her mindset is mostly confusion and wonderment.  She's excited to meet new people and learn new things, but she still hasn't figured out how everything works yet, especially as a new arrival from a fantasy-medieval setting.
Recent Developments: She's officially open for business at Kuma Lisa and taking on music students. She's also volunteering as a weekend camp counselor, again teaching music, as well as foraging and flying, for those with unexpected wings.
Goals For Your Character: My ultimate goal is always to get the character to a place where she knows for sure that she doesn't need to go back to her own world.  This could mean wanting to stay in the game setting forever, or eventually going home with someone she grows close with.  That's a very long-term goal.  In the short term, I want to just get a lot of CR for her, gradually making her more comfortable with telling people that she isn't Human.  And, of course, romance is always a definite desire!
Problems With Your Character: Ariadne's still trying to figure out how people feel about non-Humans here.

Wanted CR: ROMANCE (F/M), found family, especially father or mother figures, non-Human friends, people who need to learn that non-Humans are all right.
Unwanted CR: No negative CR for the sake of negative CR.  Happy to have someone hate her, there just needs to be a good and interesting reason.  Not just...coz.
Open/Closed to New CR: Permanently open, I suspect!

Still need some flying lessons. But also, Ariadne has never seen a motorcycle. So that sounds entertaining.
ebonheart: (dark veil)

gemmaline | the elder scrolls online | legend

[personal profile] ebonheart 2022-07-22 03:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Gemmaline
Character Age: 80ish
Character Species: Dark Elf
Character Details: She has gray skin, purple eyes with large irises, and pointed ears. She stands at 5'7" and is pretty slight framed as a result of malnutrition in her early years. There are various scars visible depending on what she's wearing due to years of combat.

Permissions: here

Character Summary: Gemmaline is genuinely good at heart and wants to make the right choices that keep people around her safe and happy. She hopes for a good solution to problems that arise, but recognizes that in truth not everything can turn out well and is mainly a realist; understanding that the world is cruel but at least trying to push things in the right direction. She has little patience for whiners, slackers, or the pompous. Her background is that of an orphan who grew up in a society that heavily values claiming lineage to one of the Great Houses, so being classified as a nobody has turned her against the rich, titled, and powerful — especially if they abuse that power. She was a bit more wild in her youth, being a member of the Thieves' Guild and stealing from those she felt deserved it, but now she only does sneaky things if it's to uncover a villain's plot and is more likely to want to help those in need. She's been thrust into the role of savior for her world like any good little MMORPG protagonist, but again, she's more of a realist about it than anything else.

Character Role: Legend
Character Role Deets: She can manifest both silvery wings and a silver halo glow around her head, but at the moment she's having trouble controlling it and they're put away more than they're out.
Character Living Quarters: Tiny Home #3 in Talaria
Character Schools: She's eventually going to start teaching jewelry making somewhere, but I want to hold back as if it's taking her a little time to get the supplies/space together for that. Perhaps next month.
Day to Day Life: She wanders, she pokes her nose into things, and right now she's spending time at camp as a counselor.

Current Mindset/Health: I purposefully kept Gemmaline away from rescuing people this month and just had her hear about it so she can feel some guilt that she didn't pitch in because she wasn't around to know about the damsels.
Recent Developments: She's starting to make friends and would like a bunch more since she's left a network of friends and acquaintances behind at home.
Goals For Your Character: I'd like for there to be a mixture of events where she helps people and where she fails because she's heavily depended on in her world and she needs both a break and to realize that trying to do it all isn't feasible.
Problems With Your Character: Nothing too big at the moment. Just missing friends and feeling guilty at not being around to help people in need.

Wanted CR: All of the above! She was an orphan and gathering found family is important. She's always down for learning something new or teaching others in turn. And I would be down for romance if things steered that way (M/F 18+). The only real caveat she has is that she has a negative kneejerk reaction to her own people, so likely wouldn't consider another Dark Elf.
Unwanted CR: Nothing negative.
Open/Closed to New CR: Open to both new and current.

varen avegos | original | familiar

[personal profile] unvocalized 2022-07-22 03:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Varen Avegos
Character Age: 36
Characer Species: Werewolf
Character Details: Brown hair, blue eyes that shift to yellow during the full moon because he's a werewolf. His senses are stronger, he can shift outside of full moon times, and he's pretty athletic. Catch him doing parkour sometimes.
Character Summary: Varen is a loyal and dedicated individual who has settled himself into a life of service as a bodyguard to the royal family in his native land. He's quiet, thoughtful, and is trying to lay low after the recent heartache of losing his love (the princess he was guarding) to a political marriage in a foreign land. Ordinarily he tries for a stoic, calm demeanor but werewolves are emotional creatures and right before the full moon is when that's the most intense. He's protective, cautious, and a little bit of a buzzkill because of it, though experience has proven that someone with enough charm can convince him to do nearly anything.

Permissions: here

Character Role: Familiar
Character Role Deets: It will mainly be a wolf for simplicity's sake, but he'll also have a bird form for scouting things out overhead and a horse form in case he needs to rush anyone to safety.
Character Living Quarters: a cottage in Gram
Character Schools: N/A
Day to Day Life: A lot of exploring so far. He's not quite settled yet. Currently he's a camp counselor on the weekends.

Current Mindset/Health: He's pretty quiet and thoughtful. He knows a version of him was left at home but dying and coming back a bunch of times seems to have kickstarted his brain into wondering if he'll merge with his other self when he gets back or how it'll go. Obviously he's meant to learn something here to take back with him so this version of himself can't cease to be on achieving what he needs to do, right?
Recent Developments: He's been helping out at camp, though mostly keeping to himself and talking to counselors. I'll try to change that going into August and have him do more stuff with campers.
Goals For Your Character: I'm still playing it by ear, but it'd be nice for him to heal from his heartbreak and learn better emotional control.
Problems With Your Character: He's a bit depressed losing his love since werewolves go hard on the mate for life deal. So he's trying not to think of her and yet everything is reminding him of her! He's also missing the support of his pack but that's what being here and forming a new one is all about!

Wanted CR: Friendship and family dynamics for now. Flirting is fine, but he's really in no place to reciprocate.
Unwanted CR: Negative CR. Let's keep it friendly.
Open/Closed to New CR: Open to both new and current.

Character Name: Mary Bennet
Character Age: 20
Characer Species: Human
Character Details: Mary is short, plain faced, and has brown hair and brown eyes. She attempts to dress conservatively, with a dress or skirt to her ankles and long sleeves during the day. She always tries to pin her hair up with face framing curls.
Character Summary: Mary thinks herself to be very intelligent, logical, and practical. Unfortunately she has little sense or natural wit, is vain, and is also completely oblivious to those things. She has tried to stand out among her prettier sisters by being well read and talented at playing the pianoforte, but she has no taste and plays for the attention it gives her instead of love of the instrument. Her canon point is after the novel ends because it's implied that with her sisters gone from the house, she no longer gets unfavorably compared to them and feels a little happier as a result. This is a good jumping off point to have her grow as a person.

Character Role: Myth
Character Role Deets: She has black horns coming out from her head and that has really messed with her mentally. She's still struggling with the belief that she may be in Hell and is a damned soul marked with horns so she needs to come to believe otherwise.
Character Living Quarters: Burrow #20 in Lapine
Character Schools: She's attending Kuma Lisa Academy for a general education.
Day to Day Life: She's really been hiding out in the Burrow and only came out to the camp to check it out for a day, where she got kidnapped by a monster and rescued. Now she's back in the Burrow, scared to step foot outside her house besides attending her classes.

Current Mindset/Health: Just... a mess. She's scared, feeling alone, and out of place with her manners and societal expectations of others.
Recent Developments: Being a damsel in distress has made her turn inward and she's still finding it very hard to cope.
Goals For Your Character: I want her to learn so much here about other people and their worlds. I want her to slowly grow more thoughtful and wise and be someone others would like to be around instead of merely tolerated. And she needs to learn not to compare herself to others and think she's in competition with them for attention.
Problems With Your Character: Pretty much everything I already outlined above: scared, alone, feeling damned and out of place, struggling for attention from others, being a pain in the butt.

Wanted CR: Anything, really. She's had so few people around that actually wanted to be around her or valued her.
Unwanted CR: Negative CR.
Open/Closed to New CR: Open to both new and current.

Hayan Park | Unholy Blood | Legend

[personal profile] thorncrown 2022-07-22 04:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Hayan Park
Character Age: 20
Character Species: Pureblood Vampire. She was born a vampire, not turned.
Character Details: Hayan is 5'3" with bright blue eyes and slitted pupils, white hair, dark black claws for fingernails and red lips. The red is very natural, all part of the pureblood vampire thing. In the past she had a human guise as well but she got so angry at one point it broke and she can't go back now.
Also she can't eat regular food, it makes her violently ill because of how vampire blood circulates. She can drink anything though (alcohol doesn't get her drunk whatsoever) and she can eat anything made with blood, particularly seonji (coagulated chunks of ox blood made for a soup in Korea).

Character Summary: Info for all of her powers. In short summary she can run real fast, is very strong, can recover from nearly anything that doesn't destroy vital organs and has terrific hearing and smell.

Hayan is a girl with a cheerful personality that's only now coming back to shine after a good half year of being constantly mad and killing other vampires. Her emotions do turn on a dime sometimes and she's quite capable of turning chillingly serious or filled with rage. For the most part though all Hayan has ever wanted was to live a normal life loving the people in her family, whether they're found or not. She's very kind, doesn't believe in taking human blood and really just wants to help.

Character Role: Legend
Character Role Deets: She has eyes that sometimes change to reflect her moods -- a brilliant glowing red when she's angry, soft pink when she's flushed or embarrassed. More will crop up eventually. She also has silvery white wings to match her hair that tend to pop out along with her white crown of thorns halo when she gets excited, haha.

Character Living Quarters: A cottage in Gram.
Character Schools: Nowhere at the moment but I'm keen on sending her to either Agrona for fighting, Baba Yaga for abilities or Amrita for survival.
Day to Day Life: So before she got here Hayan was involved in a near six month campaign to stomp out all of the Angels of Death, the defacto leaders of all the vampires in Korea. She'd also discovered the identity of the one they called 'God', an imperfect pureblood who is bent on making everyone in Korea a vampire.
She has stuff to do at home, sure, but for now she's just chilling and resting. Give her until next month or after camp ends to really start trying to have some semblance of a normal life here.

Current Mindset/Health: Hayan is torn. She had things she needs to accomplish at home but she realizes fretting over them here isn't going to change things. Hayan has the mindset of "if something is going to happen anyway, me feeling a certain way about it isn't going to change it" and so she keeps on keeping on.

Recent Developments: She beat up an eagle with a boot, does that count? Also she talked about how it might be good to be here with Sunny and that actually did help her decide she wasn't exactly a bad person for trying to just ... live while here.

Goals For Your Character: FOUND FAMILY. Eventually I want Hayan to make a boatload of friends and maybe take a couple of them under her wing as their big sis. I wouldn't shrink from anything romantic/sexual either (18+ F/M of course) though by this point in canon she's starting to have an inkling of feelings for one Detective Euntae Hwang.

Problems With Your Character: She doesn't want to gross anyone out by seeing her eat blood, haha.

Wanted CR: Give me dat found family, those awkward attractions or outright romances. Basically I'll take any CR you have.
Unwanted CR: I have no limits. I am a free spirit.
Open/Closed to New CR: Will make stupid jokes for CR. Did I tell you Hayan references The Great Gatsby and the Terminator through the course of the webtoon?

G'raha Tia/the Crystal Exarch | FFXIV

[personal profile] mysteljournal 2022-07-22 04:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: AF
Player Pronouns: she/her
Player Contact: [plurk.com profile] hotandcoldaf
Preferred Tag Style: I default to action but I'm fine with prose
Monthly Pacing: I've been on informal hiatus during July to focus on artfight, but I'll be back to my usual pace of trying to clear my inbox at least once a day next month
OOC Limitations/Disinterests: I'm open to most anything, it's more a question of whether certain things will work out ICly or not
Permissions: Here!

Character Name: G'raha Tia/the Crystal Exarch
Character Age: Physically 24, mentally about 124, chronologically about 324, It's Complicated
Characer Species: Miqo'te/Mystel, i.e. he is natively a cat person
Character Details:
-The big one is that he's partially made out of blue crystal: his entire right arm, most of his neck, a little bit on his face, a canon-unspecified amount of his chest, crossing all the way over to his left shoulder.
-He's got bright, pure red eyes that have Plot Significance in his canon, so while he won't comment on it, he'll definitely Take Notice of it when other characters also have red eyes.
-He's 5'3". We stan a short king exarch.
Character Summary: I will try to tl;dr his history as much as possible here. He was a history expert helping investigate the Crystal Tower left behind by an ancient powerful civilization that naturally turned out to be Up To Some Shit and it also turned out that he had the bloodline of said civilization's royal family in him due to Shenanigans. Since the tower was so dangerous and he was the only one who could control it, he decided to seal it off and put himself in stasis inside it until the outside world could figure out how to use its power for good. 200 years passed and an apocalypse happened, and a group of folks cracked the tower open to rope G'raha into their wild plan to undo the apocalypse. So they sent him and the tower back in time and to a parallel dimension/planet/it's complicated, so he could help undo the light-based apocalypse that happened there that caused the apocalypse back home. That was 100 years ago and in the meantime he has helped found a city and rules it and adopted a granddaughter who's now an adult. He's had a busy life.

Character Role: Familiar
Character Role Deets: He's already a catboy, so nothing changed, he can just shapeshift into some FFXIV beasts. I'm thinking Myth might suit him better, to represent his canon role of opposing Light, but I haven't thought through yet if I want to commit to a change or how to implement it. :|a
Character Living Quarters: Leshy #2
Character Schools: G'raha is by habit a self-directed learner, so while he doesn't formally attend any of the schools, he can often be found in their libraries.
Day to Day Life: G'raha spends most of his time wandering around Folkmore, seeing what there is to see, visiting the school libraries, chatting people up. He is attending Camp Camelot this month and next.

Current Mindset/Health: He's vibing like usual. Not thrilled about being a designated damsel or the other weird shit happening at camp, but he classified the Fox as fae from basically the jump, so, like. Getting mad won't help, he just needs to roll with it and be prepared to defend himself and others if necessary.
Recent Developments: Nothing super major, or at least nothing people are likely to notice. A couple of things have come up that he is slowly, quietly rotating in his head.
Goals For Your Character: This is an inherently long term goal, but I'll be real with y'all: I want to get this cat laid. Which in practice means getting over the like three distinct mental humps he has between himself and thinking he is in any way attractive or desirable.
Problems With Your Character: /points at above, not that he thinks that's a problem, which is part of the problem.

Wanted CR: I wish to gather everyone to his crystalline bosom.
Unwanted CR: Nothing in particular comes to mind!
Open/Closed to New CR: Always open to new CR

Mai | ATLA | Familiar (dragon, panther)

[personal profile] maipokerface 2022-07-22 05:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Mai
Character Age: 19 (aged up from 17 at the end of Smoke and Shadow)
Character Species: Knife Human
Character Details: Mai stands 5'6" with golden eyes, waistlength black hair she usually keeps up in buns + pigtails. She's kind of surprisingly muscular? Not ripped but if someone can jump like she can she's got to have some killer thighs, I'm just saying.

Character Summary: Info. Mai is known for being the apathetic goth girl of the series but she's grown up a good bit since then. She still has her blank faced expression as her resting bitch face but she has an easier time of showing emotions too -- subtly, of course. She has a sharp wit, a dry delivery and wears a quirked smirk of a grin more often than a genuinely big smile. If you manage to dig through those layers you'll find a person who is very dedicated to those she believes in and one who craves love and intimacy after having a taste of it with her ex.

Character Role: Familiar.
Character Role Deets: Mai has fairly sharp black claws she can retract at will. Now and then she'll also have a pair of black horns and a slim black-scaled tail with a fluffy tip like this that she's actually sort of embarrassed about when it does crop up, haha. She keeps it hidden under her bija (the long overcoat vest thing) when she can.

Character Living Quarters: A treehouse in Leshy.
Character Schools: None at the moment but I'm down for the fighting school.
Day to Day Life: So Mai got here, had a night or three in her treehouse drinking wine and just decompressing from the boredom of helping run a flower shop, then ended up at camp. Eventually she'll probably go to school though.

Current Mindset/Health: Mai is in good health and with two years of helping at her aunt's flowershop she is bored. Let's go on some adventures! Let's drink wine and gossip! You wanna make out? We can do that too!

Recent Developments: So Mai and Yor have become bros and Mai is pretty sure she looks up to Yor as a motherly figure after the woman pretty much beat a monster into a pulp with the power of yoga training and then acted all concerned about her. The latter part really hit her because she still very much remembers the "doesn't need any protection" line and her own mother's not very good attempts at protecting.
Also she did body painting with Eren and realized that maybe she's ready for intimacy with someone else again. With the body painting it was non-sexual intimacy and she definitely does want that but ... maybe the sexual wouldn't hurt either? She's never been romantically involved with anyone besides Zuko and Kei Lo and Kei Lo was ... a difficult point in her life.

Goals For Your Character: Letting others into her life, her circle of caring and all that. Maybe romance eventually? I've never really had a ship with Mai in a game because her attachment to Zuko has been that strong but aged up some maybe it could work.

Problems With Your Character: Could you tell Flynn to knock off the morning thing?

Wanted CR: Anything and everything.
Unwanted CR: I have no limits. I am a free spirit.
Open/Closed to New CR: Will make stupid jokes for CR.
