Poor, dying, and only wanting good food and to touch a tiddy. They both look similar, too, when Kenny's hood is down, so that's bonus points.

He will stick with you Denji....they can meet up soon. New older brother....

[mansbestend]

Considering how much Fujimoto likes western media, I would not be remotely shocked of even an ounce of inspiration. Power was apparently inspired by Cartman??

Rob | The Amazing World of Gumball

[nulland]

Player: Kaito
Contact: kaitodoushi, Kaito#0721

Character: Rob | nulland
Canon: The Amazing World of Gumball, after vanishing in "The Future"

About: Rob was just a background student until he was removed from his world for being a mistake. Then he broke back in when the protags showed up to save another character and ignored him. He didn't have a role anymore and was literally a nobody, so he got stuck with the only opening: the villain.

He is a very angry teen with a victim complex and who expects to be hated. He only knows how to approach things from the evil perspective, but he honestly hates the role and wants to be able to pick his own. It's been taking him a while to accept that here (and he also screwed up right after arriving, long story) but hopefully he's getting there? Or maybe not, depends on his influences. [Points at all of you, points at "Reply to this" link.]

Abilities: They're not abilities, but you should know some things about Rob's body and his canon. As for powers here, he will be getting more electricity-based dreamotion powers once he bothers to work on them some more. He's stumbled upon another power of summoning ridiculous "weapons" even if he doesn't realize that's what it is yet. His dreamwalking form is his old non-destroyed body.

PLANS
General: I was a slow ball of fail all fall, I just got back into RP last year and forgot how my Seasonal Affective crap throws me off during this time of year, I'm sorry! But I am going to work on doing better and catch up where my brain will cooperate.

ANYWAY I've been wanting to do an interactive dream in the Void at some point if people are interested? Basically it's an endless realm of static full of "mistakes", like unused or removed elements from canons, extinct creatures, annoying things pop culture complains about, etc. Might be fun for topleveling even. Let me know what you think!

Event: I may toplevel in a few days. Gingerbread Revolt sounds up the alley of his canon since several of his former classmates are food items that can be and are occasionally eaten. Oven Malfunction also sounds like something he'd suffer the worst of because his life and temperament. I'm also willing to tagout and plot stuff!

CR Dreams: FRIENDS. ADOPTED FAMILY. VILLAIN BROS/NOT BROS. PEOPLE IN RECOVERY FROM BEING VILLAINS. OTHER NOBODIES although I'm trying to avoid KH3 spoilers until I can play it, I'm on my BbS replay. NEMESES. I basically dream of everything for him. Well, everything that's okay for a 13 year old.

Etc.:

Ira | Kingdom Hearts

[iracorn]

Player: Megan
Contact: urbaninja or PM

Character: Ira | iracorn
Canon: Kingdom Hearts, Post KH3

About: Coming from the earliest known point on the KH Timeline (KHUX), Ira is the leader of one of the 5 Unions, specifically Unicornis Union. And was kind of involved with a turning point event known as the Keyblade War. And by kind of involved, I mean he started it basically. He feels real bad about that one. And now he has been brought back for reasons as yet unknown until KH4 or whatever comes out and decides to address that plot point.
He's a pretty serious guy and can be imposing, but it's easy enough to yank him into shenanigans. He's happy to help with Dreamotion-related inquiries and can offer training. He's also kind of a giant nerd who likes reading and is easily flustered.

Abilities: Ira is a Keyblade Master and thus has the ability to wield a keyblade and magic.
His Dreamwalker form is a Unicorn, which can either be a majestic creature of legend or My Little Iracorn, depending on how I'm feeling.

PLANS
General: In general, Ira has been having a lot of doubts lately, mostly brought on by the dream he had about the Keyblade War. It's led to a lot of questions he kind of has to sit on, and that's probably going to result in some sort of Darknes building up. Guy needs a hug. Or at least a reminder that it's not all bad.


Dream Board:
Clean out the Well
Frosty the Snowman

A lot of cleaning anyway. But I'm open to anything as well.

Event: Top Level Here!
Featuring the aforementioned Frosty, Gingerbread Warfare, and a slightly different Goldilocks. Please save him from the Gingerbread People.

CR Dreams:
Ira is always open for new friends and fellow nerds. People who can bring him out of his shell or people who want to join him. He likes reading and drinking tea.
I'd love for him to find a mentor or a role model of some kind. His last Master was Okay? but Ira's not so sure anymore.

He can offer dreamotion training, being the Responsible Adult, and otherwise being a friend.

Etc.: <3

Leo Valdez | Percy Jackson and the Olympians

[morsecodes]

Player: Kat
Contact: crystallium or @ crystallium #8185 on discord!

Character: Leo Valdez | morsecodes
Canon: End of Blood of Olympus
About: Leo is the demigod son of Hephaestus. He's hella ADHD, loud, thinks he's hilarious, and also insanely smart when it comes to working with machines. He's quite the prankster, so beware.

Abilities: He inherited his talents from his dad, so not only is he amazing with machines, but he also has control over fire.

PLANS
General: NOT SURE YET, he's brand new, so for now, just be chaotic and get the feel for the place?
Event: I will probably toplevel tomorrow! definitely will have Leo fighting off gingerbread men and ovens, but ESPECIALLY the ovens. He can understand machines so he'll probably be yelling at everyone to thank them and calm a lot himself

CR Dreams: gimme all the CR

Etc.:

Demyx | Kingdom Hearts

[melodiouspacifist]

Player: Nat
Contact: Ammeschan, Discord: Ammeschan#5385

Character: Demyx | melodiouspacifist
Canon: Kingdom Hearts - end of Kingdom Hearts III

About: Demyx had some past life he has little awareness of prior to his first sojourn in Organization XIII. He got to play the bad guy for awhile until a teenager with an oversized key put an end to that. He got back up for round two but Xehanort was kind of a jerk to him so he betrayed them and from the shadows helped burn the Organization to the ground. Metaphorically. Fire is more Axel's thing.

Laid-back, relaxed and cheerful, Demyx often gives the impression that he's open and friendly when in fact he's not very good at letting his guard down. He makes a great show of being stupid, lazy and useless with the goal of subverting expectations at a later date when it's required. He wants people to underestimate him and find him incredibly unassuming, if not dismiss him outright. Behind his eyes he's incredibly calculating and while he's not book-smart, he's clever, can read situations mostly well and he doesn't take very many risks. It's this cautiousness that keeps him alive, long beyond some of his co-workers. He's also incredibly observant.

Abilities: Demyx's unsung abilities from canon are his skill with subterfuge, espionage and reconnaissance. He uses his attitude and perceived ineptitude to help people forget he's always watching them from the wings. He has a huge sitar that lives in hammerspace and aside from being a talented musician, he can use it to summon and manipulate water. He can also pass through dark corridors to teleport around in a somewhat reckless manner.

I'd like him to adapt and change through dreammotion, but I'm not sure where that is going to go yet. I'd like to see where his arc takes him.

PLANS
General: In general, Demyx is kind of a lost soul. He doesn't have any solid attachments or connections to people, partly through his own design and partly due to circumstance but he also longs to make friends. There isn't anyone, save perhaps Ienzo, who might see past Demyx's façade, and he certainly could use some kind of positive relationships. He also doesn't have anywhere to belong in canon.

Event: I will probably toplevel and tag out, I usually do - I haven't decided what yet though.

CR Dreams: Demyx would really like to know someone who understands his love of music. He also desperately needs friends, and ultimately someday someone who can call him on his bullshit because this mask he wears is not great for him.

[grandduchess_anya]

Pokes in for all friendly CR with Leo with both of my girls.

zelda | legend of zelda: breath of the wild

[multidisciplinary]

Player: Jen
Contact: knighted / triforce#1960

Character: Zelda | multidisciplinary
Canon: Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild | ~40 years post-Calamity

About: Princess of the fantasy kingdom of Hyrule, Zelda grew up burdened with the knowledge that it was her duty to awaken her dormant magic powers to protect her kingdom from destruction. Despite years of training and prayer, she failed. =(

Zelda is an aspiring scholar and scientist, whose passions include archeology, technology, and natural sciences. In Songerein, she's been particularly involved in studying plants and botany! She's pretty friendly and curious, so she easily gravitates towards people or places that spark her interest. She also has a bad habit of getting herself into trouble.

On the negative side, Zelda can be stubborn, aloof, and defensive. She has a lot of anxiety, depression, and guilt that are always bubbling just below the surface. She can also kind of be a snobby know it all at times.

Abilities: Zelda can use her sealing powers from canon to an extent, but it's super vague and not really reliable. She also can use dreamotion, which comes out as generic Light magic when she's in a good mood or Malice when she's upset. Zelda fucking hates magic and dreamotion and using them is like pulling teeth for her.

PLANS
General: Not a lot at the moment! Zelda just turned 19 and her birthday is also the anniversary of the Great Calamity that destroyed her kingdom, so she's kinda down about that right now. I probably ought to have her make an appearance at the Harvest, since she made such a fuss at Susato about needing to celebrate its one year anniversary.

But in general, she's just vibing and living her best life here. She's been in Song for a long time so she's settled into a routine that involves lots of time studying weird plants in the Wildlands, hanging out in the Archives like the huge nerd she is, and socializing with her beautiful wonderful beloved CR pool.

Dream Board: I'm quite interested in the World Tree and Dark Crystals, but I don't have any solid plans atm.

CR Dreams: What I want:
- New CR! I'm open to both positive and negative CR. A few ideas that always land well with Zelda: fellow nerds/science buddies, volunteers to be experimented on, dreamotion practice buddies.
- Characters who need help from someone with sealing magic! Zelda has used her sealing magic to help a couple of folks in Song so far.
- Deepening existing CR!

What I'm offering:
- Science nerd with anxiety disorder. She likes to do research (both in the field and with books), develop potions/medicine, and catalog her findings. Her favorite disciplines are technology, archeology, and botany.
- Chosen One who tried really hard but failed to save the world.
- Actual Princess who is kinda haughty sometimes.
- Daddy issues.
- Sucks at magic/dreamotion but is constantly trying to improve.
- Exploration/outdoors junkie. She loves going places and being outside.

Etc.:

[grandduchess_anya]

Anya has lots of experience with ice magic on hand. She could try to help Percy out in that department.

[grandduchess_anya]

Maybe Isabela can join Zelda in examining the World Tree because plants and the great outdoors.

Mari | Anastasia and Isabela

[grandduchess_anya]

Player: Mari
Contact: mariscorner, Mariposa21 #4257

Anastasia Romanova | Anastasia (1997)

[grandduchess_anya]

Character: Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna ‘Anya’ Romanova of Russia | grandduchess_anya
Canon: Anastasia (1997), Near the end of the film plus Forgotten Tales CRAU
About: Anya is a very fictionalized version of Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna, the youngest daughter of Tsar Nicholas II of Russia, who managed to survive a family tragedy with amnesia and goes on a quest to find her identity with two guys and her dog, while avoiding being attacked by a vengeful Rasputin and his green minions. She can be snarky AF, but she is also kind, loyal, determined, and creative in her art and thinking skills.

It is also worth noting that Anya comes in from the end of Forgotten Tales where she was among the Aspects fighting off the Story Eater who arrived to Songerein when it tried to flee from them during the last battle.

Abilities: Anya is mostly a normal lady who can sing, dance, sew, paint, draw, and attack baddies with brooms and feather dusters. Currently, her dreamotion abilities consist of ice, light and fire magic, emotional singing and elemental infusion. I hope to have her gain limited weather control and glamouring within the coming days, just need to decide on which one though.

PLANS
General: Anya is going to be taking a low key break after all that gingerbread town madness before the event begins. She is also working to be more open about her past and her family’s horrific demise since confessing it to Alastor during the Gingerbread Town event. Still reluctant but she is going to find it to be very cathartic in the long run. In addition, she will be working hard as a seamstress at Madame Blackbird and training on her dreamotion skills.
Dream Board: Very interested in doing Frosty the Snowman but she can tag along with you for anything.
Event: Will consider having a TL for her and tagging around. She will be getting to do Gingerbread Revolt (she is probably not looking at anything gingerbread in the same light after last month) and participate heavily in Goldilocks and The Three Pigs.

Etc.: Anya probably after defeating the rebellious gingerbread cookies.:

Isabela Madrigal | Encanto

[senorita_perfecta]

Character: Isabela Madrigal | senorita_perfecta
Canon: Encanto, Post Film
About: Isabela is the eldest of the Madrigal grandchildren and a former golden child who had to hide her own dreams and identity in a façade of perfection from years of having to live by people’s expectations. Until her baby sister Mirabel accidentally turned a marriage proposal dinner upside down, giving her an epiphany to let her true rebellious self out there and go nuts with her gift’s potential.

Abilities: Isabela’s most notable ability has to be the ability to grow plants at will. Currently, she can only grow small to medium size plants so no giant mutant cacti for the time being. She is also really skilled with vine swinging and acrobatics. She does have animal communication, wind magic (which she is currently working), and some weapon transformation as known discovered dreamotion abilities. She might get Earth Magic next, she does have the plant growing skills to a T. It is also possible she might get healing and other elemental magic (fire, water, lightning, etc.) as well, we shall see.

PLANS
General: Isabela is running her own flower shop and she is hiring some more employees to help her out. There is so much one lady can do as a shopkeeper. Also she may or may not be slowly becoming romantically involved with a certain love chef thanks to the Paopu Fruit…
Dream Board: None at the moment but Isabela can tag along with you
Event: Tagging out with Isa in the second row. She will be heavily involved strengthening the story in Humpty Dumpty and Goldilocks and also do Candy Forest.

Etc.: Yes there is a good chance that Isa might be a total menace underneath all that beauty. **cough, cough**Cacti**cough, cough**

Moxxie | Helluva Boss

[imp_resario]

Player: Prof
Contact: Metafive or M5#1554

Character: Moxxie | Imp-resario
Canon: Helluva Boss, post-Season 2 Episode 1

About: Moxxie is a diminutive and demonic hitman-for-hire who loves the fine arts, weaponry, and the sort of coffee drink orders that would give weaker-willed baristas aneurysms on the spot, and who's utterly dedicated and doting toward his lovely wife Millie. But don't be fooled; despite being a native denizen of Hell's wrath ring, he's patient, restrained, and actually quite friendly and- dare I say it- well-adjusted... his insufferable and highly opinionated tastes in the arts notwithstanding.

Abilities: Moxxie is exceptionally skilled and well-versed in both theory and practiced application of weapons, particularly ranged weapons, and being a native denizen of hell he's also immune to mundane forms of fire. Unfortunately, as far as dreamotion goes, he's too much of a thinker to be an effective feeler, and other than the occasional bit of precise manipulation of fine-scale mechanical parts he's shown little aptitude for dreamotion. Though the environment around him does tend to spontaneously heat up when he starts feeling furious...

PLANS
General: While December was a bit of a slow-motion crumbling wreck on this side of the screen, I'm looking to head into January with a fresh start, and with these rumored prospects of radios soon being on the horizon Moxxie might need to get his foot in the door of that somehow and make sure that Reverein will have some halfway decent music to listen to. Or at least to manufacture a crude phonograph.

CR Dreams: Right now? I'd like to bless poor Moxxie with something he's been sorely needing for a very long period of time: some friends outside of work. Unfortunately, his bosses' open-arms hiring policy has made that a little bit difficult. Have you lived a storied life? Can you carry on a topic of conversation that doesn't involve murder, sex, or horses in any way? Frankly even if the answer is 'no' to both, let's talk.

Etc.: And you wonder why Moxxie sets a relationship goal for several of his friends.

[your_best_friend]

Flowey would be interested in talking to people from hell since he knows someone from a different version. Plus he's not a coworker! And can carry on a conversation without mention of sex, murder, or horses!

[your_best_friend]

>like unused or removed elements from canons

So things will get darker yet darker?

Hayley | Hythlodaeus and Angela

[nomoresharks]

Player: Hayley
Contact: ShadetoShade, Hayley#0847 @ Discord

[nulland]

They sure can~ Up to you. And/or the canon. I only know Undertale from seeing people talk about it.

Or people can have fun with dinosaurs, whatever.

Hythlodaeus | Final Fantasy XIV

[nomoresharks]

Character: Hythlodaeus | nomoresharks
Canon: Final Fantasy XIV, post-87 dungeon

About: Hythlodaeus is a member of an ancient race capable of creation magicks--essentially the ability to weave magic and make just about anything they had the mind to. While Hythlodaeus himself is terrible at the weaving of aether to work creation magick, he is incredible at seeing the intricacies of how it's woven and the flow of magic in the world as well as being able to see souls and discern their individual colors. This talent lead to him being the Chief of the Bureau of the Architect, essentially the DMV/patent office of Ancient society.

He is also a complete and total gremlin of a man just as likely to tease the everloving hell out of you as he is to be your biggest supporter.

Abilities: Hyth has gotten the hang of dreamotion over the months he's been in Reverein, to the point he has a much easier time of manipulating it than he does the aether of his home world (a fact he quite enjoys). As mentioned above, he is able to see souls and the weave of aether/magic in the world, which translates to dreamotion in Song. He's still figuring out the nuances of dreamotion/nightmare energy vs aether, but he's getting better at it, and should be able to help "sniff out" anything that needs finding, as well as provide advice here and there on how to go about making things.

PLANS
General: With Emet gone, Hyth is going to be a bit down in the dumps, but doing his best to hide it, keeping busy with whatever he can. He doesn't want to worry anyone with his own problems, so feel free to call him out on it. Beyond that, I'm not entirely sure where I want his character development to go, but one thing I would like to do is to explore the rather... utilitarian view on creation (both of objects and creatures alike) that his people have, as well as having him face more and more of the reality that death isn't always as peaceful and beautiful for other people as it is for his own.

That said, after getting bowled over by the holidays in the latter half of December, I'm getting back into things now so if you haven't gotten a tag back from me yet, you should get one soon! And if you don't and still want to continue a thing, please let me know! This goes for Angela too.

Dream Board: I'm kind of tempted to have him look into the dark crystals, but don't have anything set in stone.

CR Dreams: While I'm open to most everything, as mentioned above I'd love to have someone who's willing to call out his people's way of living to make him think about both it and his place in the world a little more.

[your_best_friend]

Ooh, you might be surprised what I have in mind. ✞︎☜︎☼︎✡︎ 💧︎🕆︎☼︎🏱︎☼︎✋︎💧︎☜︎👎︎📬︎

Angela | Library of Ruina

[post_script]

Character: Angela | Library of Ruina (and Lobotomy Corporation)
Canon: Post-True end of LoR

About: Angela is an AI from a dystopian future capitalist nightmare of a city that's part cyberpunk, part SCP Foundation, and part Shin Megami Tensei/Persona. Originally created to supervise her creator, Ayin's, "script" that would lead to the creation and spread of the Light of Humanity, meant to give the disillusioned, apathetic masses the ability to dream and hope for the future, at the script's end she instead decided to take the remaining Light for herself and forge a new life for herself where she was free to make her own decisions and live her own life.

And then Library of Ruina (and lots of character development) happened.

From her time as the director of the Library, Angela has regained much of the empathy that she lost working as a secretary in Lobotomy Corp, giving up her dream of being human to instead focus on cutting of the City's "Head," a group of three mega-corporations that essentially act as the City's government.

Abilities: Angela is capable of summoning parts of Abnormalities from the grimoire that she keeps on her at all times, using them to attack enemies and defend herself as necessary. She also currently has three books on her that are capable of granting whoever makes use of them weapons and armor that anyone is capable of using, regardless of their abilities. The only downside of said armor is that if their feelings/beliefs/emotions resonate too strongly with the Abnormalities that are associated with the equipment, the wielders risk being overcome by the Abnormalities' will.

PLANS
General: I'd really like to get Angela out there more, especially when it comes to the E.G.O. books she has--mostly just to get them better known in case anyone wants to use them for a plot or character development for their own characters. I plan to have her get more over time, but I'm not really sure what the best way to get her to say to people that she has them at all and would love some help for that.

As for Angela herself, I'm kind of flying by the seat of my pants at the moment to see what direction she ends up going in here or there.

Dream Board: The dark crystals are definitely going to pique her curiosity. Beyond that, she is ABSOLUTELY going to be interested in the World Tree, especially as more and more people talk about it and a greater picture of what it looks like starts to unfold.

CR Dreams: I love that people are introducing her to things that are nice and normal and aren't murder or horror related. Also enjoying any conversation that pokes at her more cynical takes on the world/remind her of her BFF Roland.

Etc.: LAMENTA! LAMENTA! LAMENTA!

Soldier: 76 | Overwatch

[steadypulse]

Player: Leo
Contact: PM, catch me in the game's Discord, or Leicon.

Character: Soldier: 76 | steadypulse
Canon: Overwatch, post-Valkyrie, and CRAU from Forgotten Tales

About: 76 is an enhanced super soldier, turned golden-boy-head of an international government funded peace keeping organization, turned bitter and jaded vigilante.

He's a rough and gruff old man these days, seeking out the truth and his new personal kind of justice. He's a very hands on type of guy from Indiana who was raised on a farm and basically forced to be the Golden Boy American Dream for a majority of his life. Thins got turned upside-down after a life of pressure and personal sacrifices and basically he is going one man army on his hunt for those responsible.

Sometimes you gotta break a few eggs, and beat some gang member's head with a smoldering piñata.

Abilities: Man has enhanced strength, speed, agility, senses, endurance, stamina- Super Soldier Shit™, basically. Under his belt is also military training to go with that, along with a natural charisma he buries and the fact he will run head-on in to danger at the drop of a hat even still. More about this is of course in his app.

I'm going with a shadow based and also electrical based dreamotion type deal, the first leaning a little on to something he had in Forgotten Tales. Things will be added on, little extra pieces as he learns and grows with it(like having shadow armor and gauntlets, the oddly warm and velvety fluid-ish feel to his shadows, and weird little shadow portals that he's learned to move through{bit of shadow walking!}). Has figured out how to conjure wolves from a mix of light and shadow dreamotion, they're pretty neat. Has learned he can shapeshift into a wolf, still practicing and getting better shifting back and fourth.

There's also something of an ice and fire thing going on with his dreamotion, stemming off from the shadow and electrical a bit. After his time of turning Full Noctare, 76 discovered an ability to grow and manipulate plants of various sorts; flowers, constricting vines— getting better with time.

PLANS
General: Currently working at the Wild Harvest as a cook, and helping out the local farmers(He's working a lot on the farmlands, helping a few of the farmers tending to whatever animals and mending that needs to be done. An old had at helping around a farm given he was raised on one.). 76 is keeping up to the usual business of late night patrols in town, and some moonlit patrols. There are a few plans just going along in the background, and I'm up to adding any fun ideas with others to things.

There is an ongoing player plot I've been running for a few months in the background, involving a Noctaere repulsing flower discovered by Kazuma and 76 called Glowing Dawns. ICly it was decided to keep the secrets of the cave and what dwells within it at the end of a hidden tunnel and deep underground out of public knowledge outside of a few characters, to protect the creatures and the Lunarbore that call it their home. That being said? I'm very willing to work out ways to get others involved if they want their character in on this knowledge, and there's a wide web of opportunity in getting involved with the Glowing Dawn flowers themselves outside of that.

If anyone is curious about this ongoing background character plot I'm happy to answer questions about that, too. Along with the possibility of finding other places the flowers grow outside of underground caves and all.

As I'm sort of going easy on things this month, I'm mostly back-tagging things, but I'm open to picking up a few new threads with old CR- and starting up new CR with those interested in an old soldier.

CR Dreams: I honestly enjoy pulling this man right out of his comfort zone, and getting him people he can be friendly with; easy mode is of course military folks, or anything similar there. People he can get comfortable around, talk shit with while having a good laugh about it, and eventually give an actual name possibly- maybe go maskless around in more proof of that comfort whether he realizes it or not. He's already gotten some of that, but I welcome more.

76 is also pretty good at training those who are less inclined to fighting. Wanna learn to toss someone twice your size over your back? Grumpy old man can be one of those guys. He's also skilled with his own dreamotion abilities, and a few more sensible things that could come in handy with living in a place like this(he has volunteered to help people practice in learning sign-language, just as an example).

Despite never having kids of his own? The man at times has Big Dad Vibes when he's not being cautious in that stand-offish and "grumpy" way of his. Usually in some subtle ways, and not even just towards younger characters- trying to make sure someone's fed or well rested during a trip, or dreamscape, that takes some time to get through. Despite his own thoughts and opinions on any matter concerning himself, he's pretty descent at it, and also an example of what not to do with your life. So if you're interested in that type of CR? There's this old grump for you.

Doji | Norimune (Touken Ranbu)

[kikuichi]

Player: Doji
Contact: Sonica, PMs, Dojizerker#3325

Character: Ichimonji Norimune | kikuichi
Canon: Touken Ranbu, Post-Great Invasion

About: Self-proclaimed retired old man and sword spirit. Norimune is one of the handful of Touken Danshi from the time government until his reassignment. Not like he'll talk about it (it's Boring and also no one's here is his master). When he's not working, he likes to chill with tea, snacks and popcorn.gif at the kids and anything fun to watch! He does have a bit of an issue with "Okita Souji owned a Kiku-Ichimonji", but he'll eventually address in the future.

Abilities: As Touken Danshi, he's a skilled swordsman who is stronger than an average human being. Along with having some spiritual senses, in a "hm, this feels a bit bad" way.

As far as dreamotion goes, I'm thinking of something elemental like wind or water. Because giving those to Norimune is a good idea.

PLANS
General: I'm going on a family trip in latter half of January, so I'll be tagging out this month if I can. I do like to play out Norimune learning to use Dreamotion!
Dream Board: No specific plans right now.
Event: N/A due to RL plans.

CR Dreams: I offer one (1) old man to be young (or have the young vibes) people's doting (?) grandpa, awful enabler and actually decent mentor if he stop joking around. For adults/older characters/have the vibes, he'd love to hang out for chatting and drinking tea/alcohol with. Regardless of which group, people who want to deal an eventually learn about his non-human nature in the future.

For more everyone, he can offer to spar with people IF he finds out they're a warrior and/or they interested him (read: "don't be boring" to him). It's not that hard to get his interest tbh, we can wing it.

Etc.:

Happy New Year!

Oh awesome!! I'll take you up on that offer to help him out haha

Azula | Avatar: The Last Airbender

[itstillhurt]

Player: Yon Fellow
Contact: PM, the Songerein discord, or YonFellow

Character: Azula | itstillhurt
Canon: After The Search (Plus brief Jigoku CRAU)

About: Crazy smart, crazy talented, crazy perceptive, crazy antisocial, crazy.

Abilities: Firebending, aforementioned "smart/talented/perceptive" qualities.

PLANS
General: Short term she's wide open, she's just going to continue being the worst as usual. Long term, my general goal with Azula is her to develop some chill and not be quite as 'the worst' anymore, of course.
Dream Board: Look you can't offer me "Anger-causing, anger-triggered fireworks that cause anger feedback loops" and not expect me to inflict that on Azula, okay. Also likely: Shenanigans with a "helpful" snowman. You might have to save the snowman from her, frankly. Other stuff is a possibility but I have no specific plans

CR Dreams: I'm open to anything. Azula, err, naturally cultivates negative CR, on account of being Azula, and I'm totally down for more of that, but. I would never say no to positive CR that can happen despite her best (worst) efforts, either.

Etc.:

Got no memes today, sorry.
