REI / PERSONA Q

[personal profile] flowerclips 2021-05-18 09:39 am (UTC)(link)

CHARACTER INFO

    Name: Rei
    Canon: Persona Q

    Blurb: i'm a one-trick pony and i'm just going to c/p the exact same blurb that i wrote in my past two games' interest checks so a super bubbly girl who absolutely loves eating. She will eat absolutely anything that she can get her hands on, including paper, Mysterious Food X, smelt ice cream, mysterious shrinking potions, and so on. She also has a depressing past, but shhh, it's fine, it's fine. She's not going to come into this world and reverse her canon development. It's fineeeeeee.

    But I may (aka most likely) play her as an AU so depressing past + no character development = fun :)

    Plans: make friends, eat stuff, make stuff, eat friends??

AU INFO

    AU Name: Niko

    AU Blurb: Niko is who Rei was before the whole 'help i'm dead and trapped in limbo because death cried, also i have a new name???' scenario. Unlike Rei, who is a ball of sunshine and has fun character development, Niko is bitter as fuuuuuuuuuuuck. She got the sick girl anime trope so she lived in a hospital for the majority of her life. She is gloomy, way more shy, and will need a lot more prodding to get her to smile goddamn it niko

    AU Plans:
    • Niko was born to a French mother and a Japanese father. It is rumoured that her mother only came to Vitae to have Niko and ditch at the first opportunity that arose while it's unknown who her father is
    • Shortly after Niko turned four, she became sick and her mother dropped her off at the hospital before immediately disappearing. She does not have any other family members
    • Niko suffered from an unknown disease that prevented her from leaving the hospital, forcing her to undergo many different types of tests and medications to potentially find what was wrong and what could help. She was unable to attend school as a result of being contained in her room and did not have any friends for many long years.
    • ??????????
    • IT'S SWEET SIXTEEN AND SHE'S OUT OF THE HOSPITAL SEE YOU LATER ASSHOLES
    • what is normal living. oh sure stranger i'll follow you into your white van. i want to try out candy
    • yeah that's it. i just c/p'ed what i previously had and. yeah. i don't really have any strict plans except i want to play niko recently leaving the hospital so she goes ???? at everything around her. i just want to play dumb sheltered girls who get into trouble ok
    Pre-established CR: I would love to have any positive CR with Niko post-discharge! She's going to work at the flower shop because ofc she would and live in a tiny and old apartment that's falling apart - or maybe assisted housing idk. Anyway! Yes, give her friends. I wouldn't mind negative CR as well, but I may have to turn it down because Niko is already depressed enough. She needs to be happy........

    And as of now, I have to decline any pre-established pre-discharge CR and definitely no for family CR. Sorry! But you can try to tempt me :0

    Anything else: i will play rei until the day i die

JUDAI YUKI / YU-GI-OH! GX

[personal profile] ehero 2021-05-21 05:18 am (UTC)(link)

CHARACTER INFO

    Name: Judai Yuki
    Canon: Yu-Gi-Oh! GX

    Blurb: i'm weak and here is my good ygo boy. he's fun, he's dumb, and all he wants to do is duel. like he literally just wants to play this children's card game but then genocide starting happening?? because he couldn't find his boyfriend in another dimension?? then he got really depressed afterwards because, you know, he killed a bunch of people?? BUT IT'S FINE NOW he's now back to being super happy and a complete dumbass who doesn't question how card games can enable time travel. he just goes cool!! okay let's duel

    Plans: i got nothing. i just want to play dumbass judai. am i going to give him an au? who knows. maybe not because he'd be that feral child who'd live out on the streets and be perfectly happy about it. he'd also be aghast that you can't solve problems in this world with game cards >:(

[personal profile] armsel 2021-05-21 04:17 pm (UTC)(link)
It was like 5 am when I first read this post. Then I got more sleep , woke up, realized Gx was wild, and I wasn't crazy.

Leon is a sensible person but even he might be like ??????????? excuse me. Slow down.



In regards to card game murders, he'll take it seriously if only bc judai is serious about it. He won't laugh at the idea that card games are dangerous.

He can have an older adult figure to confide in if you need!

LEON S KENNEDY / RESIDENT EVIL

[personal profile] armsel 2021-05-18 10:12 am (UTC)(link)

CHARACTER INFO

    Name: Leon S Kennedy
    Canon: Resident Evil

    Blurb: Leon's a bright young man with a strong sense of justice. He's a cop!!! A rookie!!! He happens to be skilled with firearms and combat. However, he lacks experience and often does reckless things. This is resident evil so there's always an absurd amount of zombies everywhere....he's come to despise them over time. His main goal is to secure the G virus so that zombies will stop multiplying and he can catch a break for once.


    Plans: he's willing to be someone's bodyguard or a security guard. He's an upstanding citizen so i think it'd be pretty funny to get him caught up in some crimes.

OTHER INFO

    Enable me: I'M GOOD

    Anything else: This is leon from resident evil 2 so he's about 21 years old.

NIER / NIER REPLICANT

[personal profile] silentends 2021-05-18 10:18 am (UTC)(link)

CHARACTER INFO

    Name: Nier
    Canon: Nier Replicant ver. √1.5 you can't make me type out that string of numbers attached to the game's title.

    Blurb: Nier lives in a small village with his sister Yonah who's sick. They don't have parents so Nier is forced to take 34649 jobs to pay for everything. He's living the rough life. His talents include hunting and fishing. Tools of the trade.

    Nier really likes the ocean and music that occasionally comes from the tavern. It's a shame his artistic skill is somewhat questionable at best. He's kind of an odd guy in general but he's friendly when he wants to be.

    Plus, he's got an obsession with this thing called revenge and it's what ends up becoming his main driving force.



    Plans: please let him eat proper food and show him what it's like to have a good time.

PLAYER INFO


CHARACTER INFO

    Name: Noah Ebalon
    Canon: Elsword

    Blurb: Second heir to one of the six elemental priest families from a fantasy world. He had an older brother Harque who cared for him a lot. The Ebalon family had hereditary talent in moon magic (healing power) and darkness magic (offensive magic). Harque inherited the former, while Noah inherited the latter. However, being an El Master requires one person to be able to master both, and neither of the siblings were able to use both types of magic. In the end Harque was able to overcome this problem by learning time magic, which gave him enough qualifications to be appointed for the role. Unfortunately he was then murdered by some cultists and Noah himself was subjected to experimentation before being put into a deep sleep in some time ruins. He woke up 500 years later, having lost his brother and all that is familiar to him, and tries to carry on his brother's legacy in wielding moon magic even at great cost to his lifespan.

    Also time loops are involved. All his friends are dead. Yeah Elsword is fucked up.

    Plans: I WANT TO GIVE NOAH FRIENDS... and some semblance of a normal life because this boy's canon life is too horrible.

AU INFO

    AU Name: Noah Ebalon

    AU Blurb: Noah would be a lot more functional if he had a proper upbringing instead of being trapped in his family manor while his parents plotted how to use their children to advance their societal prestige. He's still mild-mannered and polite like his canon counterpart, but with much less trauma and more snark. He will actually go to school this time, have normal interests, attend clubs, etc.

    AU Plans:
    ➛ Second heir to the Ebalon family, a prestigious and suspiciously rich group of merchants. That means Noah is a bocchan.
    ➛ Unfortunately... his brother Harque went missing on an overseas business trip. While Noah still believes that Harque is alive, his parents have accepted that he has demised and have begun training Noah to be successor in place of his brother.
    ➛ He will be aged up a bit so he's now 18 years old and starting university.
    ➛ Noah inherited a genetic disease from his elitist family, which makes him physically weak and gives him silver/white hair.
    ➛ He also wears glasses/contacts due to reading too much books.
    ➛ It would be cute if he had admirers... or that he has a nerd crush on someone idk???? an NPC?????
    ➛ I want him to regain his healing powers, which will once again be cast from HP like canon.

    Pre-established CR: FRIENDS... adults to mentor him I guess. Or fellow kids to drag him into fun stuff otherwise he's gonna be studying all day. Hit me with anything and I'll roll with it tbh.

    Anything else: Noah's current canon point in a nutshell:

OTHER INFO


    Anything else: I am not a fast tagger (as in I tag back once every 1-2 days) so if the game ends up being faster than that I may have to bow out. It's been a problem in some games I apped to before, so I'm just putting it out here

    Name: Haki

CHARACTER INFO

    Name: Rom
    Canon: Original

    Blurb: Rom is an AI that was built to terrorize people. He's clingy with his twin brother, Rem, and is very childish and bent on revenge tenfold whenever someone wrongs him. The twins led a bonafide cult of real people as time passed. They had power and it spiraled out of control. All he wanted was for his creator to love him and his brother, so there was this unhealthy stuff going on. Fun.

    Plans: See belooooow.

→ AU INFO

    AU Name: Connor Walker

    AU Blurb: 18-year old gremlin boy fresh out of high school. Loves anything that has a definite answer, which makes him great at math and some areas of science in school, and with computers. Has artistic creativity levels of a dying worm. He's going to university on a scholarship, despite him being a troublemaker. Likes video games (games in general) and scary stories. More used to people being harsh with him rather than nice. Has a vulgar mouth. Delinquent with good grades. Will do anything for his family. You harm any of them in any way and he'll make you regret it. He's also blacklisted from the Amazon-equivalent in this place.

    AU Plans: I just want him to start remembering his life as an AI and have an existential crisis because his AU life is much more better... or at least it was--happiness in ignorance. It'll be a fun perspective/development that I never tried out with him before.
    Pre-established CR: Not looking for anything specific, but people who went to high school with him would have known him as That Guy who even the disciplinary committee couldn't get their hands on. If you also play online games, they could know each other that way too. Someone he pranked... He could prank anyone, whether you're a child or an adult. He has no limits on that.

    Anything else: idk

OTHER INFO

    Enable me: n/a

    Anything else: I am always a phone tagger, which means there could be double words in a row due to autocorrect, or weird words not meant to be there because of autocorrect too. Sometimes I press A instead of caps lock and... you get the point. My availability is also ??? because I am basically my family's secretary on-call 24/7.

CHARACTER INFO

    Name: Yuya Sakaki
    Canon: Yugioh Arc-V

    Blurb: Do I have to

    OKAY Yuya is a bubbly teenager who lives in a world where Card Games Are Life. His dream is to be the best entertainment duelist like his mysteriously missing dad. He's caring, melodramaticemotional, loyal to his friends, also he was a world destroying villain driven by his own selfish rage but like he is BETTER now. Still selfish but he won't like, go on another genocidal bent. Probably.

    Plans: See the AU section:
hippocarnival: (Default)

DO NOT REPLY - subject to changes and edits

[personal profile] hippocarnival 2021-05-19 06:23 am (UTC)(link)

AU INFO

    AU Name: Yuya Sakaki

    AU Blurb: The Sakakis have been a fairly established family in Vitae since Yuya's great-grandmother immigrated. She carved a place for herself among the other Japanese immigrants as an entertainer and socialite, and opened a teahouse (name forthcoming) that quickly gained popularity with tourists and locals alike for the drink, decor, and hosting. It's less of a daily hangout and more of a special occasion kind of place, and almost exclusively serves the teas made at the ryokan.

    It's been the pride of the family and kept exclusively within them, not even hiring staff from outside the family. "Charming" and "beautiful" are synonymous with all the Sakakis... to anyone who knows them only as the dedicated hosts of the teahouse.

    The locals that know them on a more personal level all agree something about them is... off. Details don't add up, and despite how long they've lived in the city somehow they've only fallen for, and wed, people from elsewhere who seemingly show up suddenly one day. Plenty of rumors, some more conspiratorial than others, surround them I.E. that they dabble in the occult, that the people who marry in are purchased, or they're connected to underground crime. The reality is just that they're a mess from generational trauma stemming from his great-grandmother.


    Yuya was the second-youngest of the family, in training like everyone before him in music, tea making, hosting, everything entirely for running the teahouse. Was, until a year ago when a fire engulfed the Sakaki residence by the border of the forest overnight. The tragedy claimed the lives of everyone except Yuya, who had come out completely unscatched.

    It didn't take long for a rumor to circulate that he was the one that did it.

    By game start he's 16 and dropped out of school to work full time at the teahouse. He didn't have a lot (if any) friends beforehand, often sequestered to the house or the tearoom for training, and the weird rumors have just make him more distant. But he'll put on a cheerful and friendly face to anyone. It's what he was raised to do.

    AU Plans: Yuya's here to be a normal if troubled teenager who's life is going to get very, very weird soon. Other than that I'm winging it. He's a complete AU so there's going to be no regains or weird memories here.

    The teahouse will be an accessible spot with 1 new recent hire NPC because Yuya can't do this alone and also so people can be there without Yuya needing to.

    Pre-established CR: Bruh throw anything at me I want all the pre-CR. There's still a lot of holes in this backstory since he's a full AU.

cw: drug mentions

PLAYER INFO

    Name: Achsah
    Contact: PM

CHARACTER INFO

    Name: Akira
    Canon: Togainu no Chi

    Blurb:
    Akira comes from a future dystopian post-war setting where he was raised in a military run orphanage, was experimented on as a child, and years later was wrongfully convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison. He makes a deal to get out, then there's a lot of fighting, drugs, and romance~. At the end of the route I'm going with for canon point, he's a photographer traveling the world with his journalist boyfriend.

    He's very emotionally distant and disengaged, to the point where he doesn't recognize the tiny amount of feelings he does experience and can't understand why people get excited over anything at all. It took him five years to learn how to smile. He's hard to hold a conversation with and doesn't talk a lot. Generally stoic and asocial, he's impolite and snappy sometimes, and kind of quietly recalcitrant. He can be frigid initially, and there won't be much of a quick thaw; a negative cr magnet as far as first impressions go.

    Plans: None. Winging it like always.

AU INFO

    AU Name: Michael Yamashita
    (RNGed from a list of common Japanese surnames and picked the top American boys' name for the AU birth year. This is what I got.)

    AU Blurb:
    "Mike" was born in Vitae to lower-class parents. His mother just up and left when he was four years old, and he grew up with only his father around. Said father, we will call him Brian, worked long shifts at the convenience store and supplemented his income selling marijuana in the parking lot, which he grew at home in plastic buckets. His illegal activities progressed and resulted in several arrests. He was in and out of jail, and during those times, Mike stayed in the assisted living apartments, which irritated him greatly. Thus, he got emancipated at 16 and dropped out of school shortly after. He had a string of odd jobs and very temporary employment where he'd quit the majority of attempts at work once socialising became too much.

    He's currently 24, lives in a shitty apartment by the occult shop, and works for a janitorial company. He cleans floors at night for several buildings like the supermarket, business center, the bank, and various stores in the mall. He's rarely seen during the day, usually sleeping or loitering around the downtown area; hangs out in the convenience store parking lot to smoke (cigarettes) sometimes and go through a few scratch offs. He carries around a 35mm camera and takes weird "artistic" photos of shit like sad weeds growing out of the sidewalk, and develops them in his tiny bathroom and never shows them to anyone.

    His personality's basically the same, and I guess his hair is brown and not grey now. That's about it.

    AU Plans: Shrug emoji. I'm open to all sorts of things!
    Pre-established CR: Idek. Hit me with ideas if you want.
