✵ CR MEME: JULY 2022 ✵

Welcome to Songerein's CR Meme! A place where players can dump info on their characters and try to plot with others to continue existing or create new CR. We have a handy dandy form so go forth, tell us about yourself and your characters, and start plotting! You can refer to the Mod Announcement for plotting ideas for the month and beyond! Continuing or using things from the recent TDM.

If you have multiple characters, make an individual toplevel for yourself with your player info and comment to it with each character separately.
Player:
Contact: Preferred means of contact

Character: Character | Journal
Canon: Include canon point

About: Briefly talk about the character. Can include background info or just stick with personality traits—whatever will be most useful to help other players learn about them!

Abilities: Include both canon and whatever kind of abilities you're thinking about developing with them, especially when dreamwalking!
Dreamwalker Form: Does the character have a cool, unique form when dreamwalking or do they look like themselves? Do you change it up depending on the dream?

Plans: Any ideas or plans you'd like to do with your character? This could be short term, such as what items from the Dream Board or TDM, or long term.

CR Dreams: What kind of CR do you wish to have? Include what you can offer with your character as well.

Etc.: Anything else or, you know, the usual memes.

IF YOU HAVE MULTIPLE CHARACTERS, create your own toplevel and comment with each character separately to it. Include your name in the subject line. Although not specifically included, you are more than welcome to write up a greeting message along with the form!

Asura | Onmyoji

[abyssbound]

Player: hsumi
Contact: hsumi, hsumi#6070 on Discord

Character: Asura | Onmyoji
Canon: Post-Celestial Realm arc (may be canon-updating soon)

About: Former Hero of the Celestial people turned King of Hell. Asura has a terrifying (and well-earned) reputation as Lord Mara of the Abyss, and as a ruthless God of Destruction, but this is partially an intentionally-cultivated persona. In truth, Asura is Chaotic Good incarnate, and is a genuinely good guy with a strong sense of justice and a penchant for mentoring others. That being said, he's also pragmatic, strongly prescribes to 'an eye for an eye', is really good at killing things, has berserker tendencies, and tends to go overboard when he loses himself in bloodlust. He's a good person at heart, but he's not necessarily nice, believing in Tough Love, and is outright hostile to those who he perceives as irredeemable. He's got beef with nobles and politicians, and can't stand hypocrisy (the irony being that he himself is a bit of a hypocrite), but his biggest trigger is people in positions of power abusing their positions to benefit themselves while trampling on those below them.

He's much nicer to children, and though he isn't a father, he's definitely a Dad. His fondest wish is to live a peaceful, boring life with the person he loves, and he enjoys farming, fishing, martial arts, musical theater, and extreme sports.

He's got some serious trauma and baggage but you'll have to reach Friendship Level 100 to unlock his Tragic Backstory, so don't expect him to share any of it.

Abilities: His main ability is spawning up to six enormous spinelike tentacles from his back, which are very sharp and very good at reducing things to chunky salsa form, but they're also dexterous enough that he can use them as multitools and sculpt fine details with them. These limbs are usually hidden away inside his back.

He's also got the accelerated healing typical of his race, and has some limited pyrokinesis, but he uses this sparingly and mostly as a tool rather than an offensive weapon.

As for Dreamotion powers, he hasn't really experimented much with it, but he does have an uncontrollable passive Dreamotion effect of every flower he touches transforming into a lotus.

Dreamwalker Form: Typically keeps the same appearance while Dreamwalking, but this is subject to change depending on the dream. Sometimes he'll appear only as a vaguely-humanoid shadow with glowing red eyes.

Plans: Still largely playing it by ear, but there's a good chance Asura is going to go through a canon-update in the near-future. This won't change much about him as a character and will have minimal effect on his interactions in Songerein, but some pretty major developments have happened recently in his canon that would be prudent for him to be aware of.

As for Song-related things, he's going to get involved in assisting with shipbuilding and will probably be a regular visitor to the beach so he can do some ocean fishing.

CR Dreams: The cop-out answer is "everything" of course.
For more specific types of CR, he gets along well with kids, military types, and hot-blooded individuals, but I would also love for him to get some more negative CR. People who disagree with his worldview and particular form of justice, nobles (especially those who don't fit his biased prejudice), etc.
