Character: Ira | iracorn Canon: Kingdom Hearts; KH3 About: An ancient Keyblade Master from the earliest days of the KH canon. Probably too serious for his own good but damn if he isn't trying
PLANS General: Ira has lost a bunch of CR recently, so I would like to try to re-bolster that a bit. So I'll be trying to tag out more.
Event: Ira will probably have a top level where he will be attempting to act as a conduit to save his world(s). There's a good chance that he will fall into a coma or become a monstrous unicorn Noctaere. So, if anyone wants to help him out with that, I'd be down. Either with the coma, or the giant monster.
About: Typical stoic, aloof, silent elite agent soldier lone wolf type with the biggest soft spot for all things dog. His ideal is to live a life filled with peace and quiet, and so he fights to protect not only his peace but others as well. Eustace can be a bit rough around the edges, but he's softened up and can be amiable with those he's grown to trust and care for. Often compared to as a "guard dog" he is fiercely loyal to those close to him. He is skilled with guns, short blades, and grenades with his favored weapon being Flamek, a special rifle that can unleash lightning.
For some other random tidbits, that hairstyle isn't just for looks—his right eye is sensitive to light. Normally it's not a problem, but when there are sudden bright flashes that he can't prepare for, he can be temporarily blinded on that side. He does have an eyepatch he can wear though it's only for certain combat situations. As an Erune, the dog-like ears on his head are very real, but he does not have a tail. Also as an Erune, the fashion choice of open sides and backs is the norm— More detailed info can be found here!
PLANS General: It has been a bit, but Eustace got a nice dump of nostilium after his fun trek in the caves with the Rosfield brothers and now there's this event so ho ho ho. I'll put my focus on that.
Event: I was already planning on Eustace having a Nocstace 2.0 happening around this time SO YOU KNOW THIS MIGHT BE A GOOD TIME FOR IT. I'm not sure if he'll change during the event or if I'll hold off until July, but I think during may work better. There will be a lot of Society elements for his world fragment, which will feature robots and mech things so that will be fun. Eustace himself will definitely try to act as a container even if he knows this is a bad idea, BUT LIKE HE WOULD RISK LYRIA FOR THIS. RIP. Anyway, fun times, fun times.
Character: Cid Highwind Canon: Final Fantasy VII (Advent Children Complete version)
About: A pilot with a hot mouth and hot temper to match it, Cid can be a grump, but he's a good guy with a good heart. He's an engineering genius, capable of modify, repair, and build things from scratch if needed, though his expertise is with vehicles and aviation. In terms of combat, he's classified as a "dragoon." Able to wield a spear and jump high for powerful striking hits (and even call...a dragon; somehow). But he also knows his way around explosives. Since he is from the ACC timeline, he is not Rebirth compliant and thus doesn't know anything about all that mess they're going through. Also means no chance of spoilers from me!
PLANS General: So far Cid is just trying to adapt being in this world and is still kind of...averse to the whole dreamotion thing. He'll get over it, but he still prefers his science and technology which this place sorely lacks so he's going to change that. If anything he likes the Orikilans and may want to move over there— No big plans yet, though he may consider building a plane or other transportation vehicles because why hasn't this been done yet—
Event: Boy howdy if he didn't think this place was crazy enough. Will have to talk with cast about things, but for Cid himself he'll try to help. Maybe focus on the tapirs.
If he's gonna be doing some engineering, I'd love to get Zelda in on it. Cid doesn't even have to be nice to her. She'll just make herself his problem. It's her way.
Character: Naoya | crouching_sin Canon: Devil Survivor, Amane Route Day 7 About: Literally Cain, a grumpy old man who's reincarnated over and over and over again and is very angry about it. Wants to kill God over it and will use anyone and everyone to get at his goal. He still has feelings, but barely. Please handle with care, contents may be fragile.
PLANS General: He needs more friends, particularly friends he can Sass with. Or friends he can technology with, he needs people he can build something big and stupid with. Event: He's probably going to be around with his demons trying to take care of some of the nightmare creatures. He's likely to overextend himself with sealing his world fragment and either knock himself silly with a severe migraine episode or knock himself into a coma, I haven't decided yet.
Character: Ryu | amnesiadragon Canon: Breath of Fire IV, End of Chapter III About: Half of a dragon who is very innocent and loves nearly everyone. He wants to help as many people he can with the time he has available to him. He's aware that he's running on limited time outside of Reverein, so he's made it his mission to be as helpful as possible.
PLANS General: Just learning more about the world (not necessarily this particular world but 'the wider world' in general) is my main goal for him. He's trying to do his best to keep up the happy act though there's some sad if you scratch the surface. Event: Ryu is familiar with nightmare worlds, and part of the world of dreams from his world may well pop up! I'll have to decide. It could also be somewhere important to him, either positive or negative, I'll have to think it over. He's likely to go all out fighting the nightmare creatures, attacking some of the most dangerous ones with his most powerful forms... which may scare any passers-by.
Etc.: Ryu has a birthday log up now! You don't have to know him to join in.
Character: Tobias | notachickenhawk Canon: Animorphs, End of book 43 About: A bird who used to be a teenager who got dragged into a war with alien parasites. Has seen way too much and is horribly scarred over it. He's dealing with it the best he can and he's settled down a little bit in Reverein but he's working through a lot.
PLANS General: Well he just got told Rachel's dead so he's trying to process that. He also got told his mother's alive so he's trying to process that at the same time. He's working on it but it's um. Not going well. He might need to reach out for some help but he's not sure how to reach out for help. He may do so anonymously on the journals but he's not quite sure how to do so without outing himself. Event: I'll have to check with Yon as to plans for the event but uh there's a bunch of alien creatures that could be twisted for this kind of thing. A bunch of places that could bring back bad memories too for either of them...
Character: Gabriel Agreste (AKA Betterfly) | papillion_de_resistance Canon: Miraculous Ladybug-A few weeks before his intro in the "Miraculous World: Paris" special About: A fashion designer from Paris on a version of Earth ruled by an evil being known as the Supreme who's secretly also a superhero named Betterfly. His powers include sensing the strong emotions of others and turning others into temporary superheroes themselves. More info on the process can be found in the abilities section of his app and a handy permissions form if you want to have your character turned into a superhero (or to opt out of such) can be found here.
PLANS General: In civilian form, Gabriel has been working to establish himself as a designer in Reverin and to bond with the main Miraculous universe's version of his son, Adrien but given the events that are due to happen this month, his superhero identity, Betterfly, will finally be seeing some action as well. And given his power set, he'll likely try to recruit others to help deal with the chaos by granting them temporary superpowers as well. Event: Will definitely be participating in the event with Gabriel/Betterfly, most likely with a TL. May do some tagging out too, as he runs around trying to help however he can. Being a superhero, his focus will likely be on helping contain and deal with Nightmare creatures and corrupted tapirs, but he'd be open to helping out wherever he's needed.
Character: Hermes | not_42 Canon: Final Fantasy XIV, the day before the Warrior of Light (AKA the player) arrives in Elpis About: Chief overseer of the research facility Elpis. Kind-hearted and empathetic but generally depressed in a world that hasn't invented therapy.
PLANS General: He's been looking into researching the wildlife around Reverin and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future, so any and all biology, science, and/or magic nerds would be welcome CR. As are other people from FF XIV and just... more people who can help him see he's not alone in his suffering. Event: Will definitely be participating on the event. Probly will have a TL for him and possibly tagging out. Hermes, with his massive magical capacity will likely be focusing on helping with sealing, which could lead to a distinct possibility of him becoming a Mega Noctaere. He'd feel horrible about it afterwards if so, but could lead to some interesting CR.
About: Yato is first and foremost a goofball. He gets himself into trouble constantly, sticking his foot in his mouth (quite deliberately often times) and earning the ire of those around him. But he can also be serious when the situation calls for it and is willing to put himself in harm's way to protect others. He's also a god - not that you'd know it when most of his godly abilities revolve around cutting things, be it people or ties.
As a god Yato has the ability to possess people he forms a connection with, borrowing their body for a time. I have a permission post here in case anyone wants to try that at some point! He's slowly learning to heal people with dreamotion, among other things.
PLANS General: Yato just got back from a small canon update after nearly croaking to blight, so he's glad to be 'home' and will just be making a general nuisance of himself, as per usual. Especially since at the end of the month it's Hiyori's birthday!! Expect a grand, over-the-top celebration in which everyone will be invited to meet his best girl, if they haven't already.
Dream Board:Tickled Pink: Let him paint on you! He's actually a pretty good artist, believe it or not.
Event: With three Noragami people here, you can expect to see a fair number of neon-coloredayakashi cropping up in their portion of Tokyo that manifests, so he'll be working overtime to keep their numbers down.
Character: Iris Wilson | herlockian Canon: The Great Ace Attorney, after game 2 About: A super intelligent 10 going on 11-year-old who likes inventing and making new tea blends amongst a ton of other things she excels at. She's very nice, but she's also very mischievous. Raised by the great detective Herlock Sholmes.
PLANS General: Her birthday is on the 16th and I was gonna do a party, but now I'm not sure if that works? Dream Board: I could see her maybe doing the Puppet Pals request! Event: I can certainly think of a nightmare that I can also relate to her birthday, so maybe I'll do something? Depends on how mean I want to be.
Character: Martel Yggdrasill | untwisted Canon: Tales of Symphonia, right after Mithos starts severing Derris-Kharlan from the worlds. About: The most compassionate, idealistic person ever who has been through a lot of suffering. She had to spend the last 4000 years watching the little brother she raised go complete sociopath while she couldn't do anything about it. But she's fine here! Really!
PLANS General: I'd like to build her current relationships some more. Did not have a good mental health spring, sorry. Otherwise she keeps busy at the clinic. Event: I've been wanting to noctaere her for a while and this looks like my chance! Or maybe next month if this one doesn't work. So yes, please help her with that.
Player: Jamie Contact:jamizoid, please feel free to friend me, especially if we have cr!
Character: Sheik | sagesurvivor Canon: Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, between Link's completion of the Shadow and Spirit Temples About: Mysterious androgynous ninja minstrel that serves as a guide to the Hero of Time on his quest to defeat the Demon King. Actually the princess that went missing seven years ago in disguise.
PLANS General: While I was on hiatus, Sheik spent the majority of last month Stressed and Sad as basically all of his canonmates either disappeared or fell into a sleep coma. Thankfully, he is well versed in the ancient art of Compartmentalizing That Shit, though he's definitely reaching the end of his rope on that front and the upcoming events will probably not help. I'm not quite ready for him to go full noctaere yet but it might be on the horizon, stay tuned.
Event: Likely topleveling and tagging out as life allows! Hyrule has already bled into Songerein once before in recent memory, and this is basically everything Sheik was fearing would happen during that. He is going to be Very Invested in making sure the nostilium is contained and doesn't infect Hyrule, which couldn't possibly go wrong in any way. It's not like he already has a metric fuckton of guilt about not being able to protect his country already that could affect his judgement on how much nightmare energy he can safely contain. Hey, what's that shiny golden triangle symbol suddenly glowing on his handβ
Oooh, you really are in a good position for Sheik to go full noctaere pretty soon! He sure has had a bad time being the last one standing (again). And you know, a noctaere fight could be a great avenue for the Big Reveal!
/waves hands in "not useful plotting ideas for right now"
Anyways, are you thinking of having some OOT Hyrule bleed in? Like yeah there was a Hyrule canon bleed last year, BUT WE CAN ALWAYS HAVE MORE HYRULE.
Fggjlhdhdy that meme for Iris... But yes, it's still very possible for birthday things to happen for Iris, especially if Gina has anything to say with it! Also down for potential awful event things!
Listen, I've been sitting on ideas for a noctaere plot that doubles as the big reveal moment basically since I apped into the game. I'm kind of screaming to myself now that it feels like it might soon be The Time.
But yes I definitely want to have some OOT Hyrule bleed in, it'll make Sheik lose his mind. Maybe the Shadow Temple or Kakariko? Frozen Zora's Domain? Lon Lon Ranch for that extra twist of the knife? There are so many possibilities...
aaaaah, I'm so glad, because I've been really enjoying them too! Gina's so good and sweet, I love her. And thank you for your patience in tagging with me! I'm hoping I'll be able to be a little more consistent for a while now that I'm not as consumed with end of school year stuff.
We should absolutely do something with them for the event, I agree! Gina is going to help the little princess whether she's aware of it or not. o9!
