Nikki / Light Yagami

[andeatit]

NAME: Nikki
CHARACTERS: Light Yagami
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Light is a charismatic, charming young man that works very hard to put out a good face and is very good at it. While he has a strong sense of justice and a new ability toward literal empathy, he still finds himself unable to connect to most people.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Liewen lab things. Vandare things. Things things. He will be purchasing a major power.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: God things! I want him to convert someone. Please and thanks. Other than that, I'd love new and old CR alike.

ANYTHING ELSE: You can add me on plurk at makewayforroze.

[peccatore]

We haven't threaded in a while! In the mean time, Marco has grown to find L really obnoxious and intrusive. BONDING TIME??

(Seriously though I'd love to do something.)

[showyouthesight]

NAME: Kitty
CHARACTERS: Rin Matsuoka
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: He's a swimboy harpy who loves his friends and loves competition but HATES THE GODS. He's also very dismissive toward followers for this reason, especially Fourth Followers. He's very emotional on both sides of the spectrum, but he also likes propping people up and helping them find their own awesome.
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Rin is currently in charge of the Bavan general store and also works part time as a guard/bouncer for the Silver Moon Bar. He is very focused on fucking with Elias in whatever way he can and has been since the dreams event. When not working or hating gods, Rin is typically training at Rainbow Pool. I may be working toward getting him much more actively involved in god resistance. I plan on having him apply to work at the God Division of Liewan Labs. Uh he's also toying with the idea of joining Fog just to fuck with Elias because yeah.
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Lol see above. Also I enjoy negative CR. But really, a lot of Rin's CR has recently left so any opportunities for him to make new friends is a good thing.
ANYTHING ELSE: I can be brutally slow if it's not the weekend. Sorry. I don't drop though.

[soft_focus]

Considering she is my only Forever Neutral for sure, would the bird like to meet a certain troll cat?

On a serious note Espurr is damn crafty so she'd probably be all over this Neutral Grouping deal. Not as a leader of course-she has no interest in that as it is-but deeeeefinitely as something to at least get her toes into.

[titularly]

NAME: Blake
CHARACTERS: Osomatsu Matsuno
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Osomatsu is the eldest of the identical sextuplets we've all grown to equally hate as much as we love. He's hotheaded, stubborn, selfish, childish -- but surprisingly a good listener and gives good advice when you really need it. He's friendly and outgoing, always looking for people to hang out with and drinking buddies to party with.. did I mention he's an alcoholic?

All and all, Osomatsu's just looking to have a good time! Just don't insult his brothers around him or you'll get a nice fist to your face.
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Osomatsu's turning from a manticore to a mer and he's having a grand old time getting used to being human again for the first few weeks. He's also going to be throwing a birthday party on the 24th of this month for him and his brothers that will probably have a small memorial for the youngest who was recently dropped... rip Totty... little satan-chan.....
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: FRIENDS he needs more friends please be his friend he only has his brothers
ANYTHING ELSE: I'm a little bit on the slow side when it comes to tagging, and my sleeping schedule is never the same whoops.... but other than that I am here for new CR of all shapes and sizes!

[peccatore]

HI I'M ALWAYS EXCITED FOR MER CR even though... Marco is not going to be a mer for the next few months... so the timing could be better BUT STILL

[karappo]

NAME: Chi
CHARACTERS: Karamatsu Matsuno
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Karamatsu is the second born of a set of sextuplets (five of which are here, including himself) and considers himself to be the most charming and charismatic ladies man on the planet. In fact, he is just super painful and embarrassing but he means well...the fact that he's a neon blue faerie doesn't help, either.
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Karamatsu's birthday is near the end of May so he'll be having a party with his brothers (and there's a planned temp change to come in the futureish) but he's pretty free for things otherwise! He's just getting over the affects of the last event and trying to Chill Out a bit but I'm always up for new CR and things c:
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I'd really love some negative CR for Karamatsu, actually! He's had a lot more trouble than I thought actually generating it, and though I adore the friends and CR he has it would be fun to have someone he didn't get along so well with. Otherwise though I am game for anything and everything please come at me with your ideas.
ANYTHING ELSE: NOTHING THAT I CAN THINK OF, feel free to add me over at winterbolt on plurk if you want to plot there, though! I am also planning on bringing in a second character with this next app cycle so, very exciting.

[expectional]

NAME: katar
CHARACTERS: Nagisa Shingetsu
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Nagisa is a ten year old bookworm and child prodigy. He acts very mature for have age, but that is one of the very last things he wants to be told. He has an extreme mistrust of adults because he was heavily abused by his parents and mistreated by his teachers and basically all adults he ever had contact with. Most of the time he's very calm and chill, but he has a very explosive temper and can be hard to calm down once he's riled. In ryslig, he is a nymph and a fog follower! So haha to all you neutrals who believed him in the event, he was lying about a lot.of things the whole time.
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: He'll be finishing up his changes this month. I have a network post planned for him once I'm back from vacation and he'll be getting all his roots and bark and fun tree bits later this month as well. He's gonna try and do some converting, as well, so if you've always wanted to align with foggy and your character would be swayed by a logical-yet-insane child, lemme know and maybe we can work something out.
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I'd like for him to get to know some more foggies, if possible! He's really big on teamwork and unity so he's kind of appalled by the lack of it over in camp fog. This event was an eye opener for him in lots of ways. I'd also love for him to get to know some more nymphs! Especially since I'd like to start working him towards being kind of okayish with adults. And plant adults would be a good start. Adults who were abused as children are also proving to connect with him a little easier too. Also adults who are just. Crazy. In some way or another. He works better with the morally grey and the bad influences, sad though that is. Also: any neutrals who want to find out he was a lying spy during the event OR and neutrals who want to continue to be duped by him would be welcome. He's not going to be overly vocal about his alliance, even now. I'M DOWN FOR ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING, COME AT ME BROS.
ANYTHING ELSE: I'm still on vacation till Wednesday but dammit I had to mobile tag for this since it's been a million years since our last one. I'm on the us central time zone and I'm​ mostly available for tagging on evenings and weekends. And the occasion morning/afternoon tags depending on how busy I am at work. My plurk is robokatar, feel free to add me for plotting and chatting.

As far as triggers go, I have none HOWEVER...given Nagisa's backstory, it's pretty much impossible to avoid the subject of child abuse. So I have an opt out up on his journal (sorry, can't link cuz mobile but it's right at the top of his navigation post) if there are certain topics you'd like me to avoid or if you just don't want to tag with me at all. Please let me know, I don't want to make anyone uncomfortable with my horrible murder child.

SPEAKING OF, THESE GUYS TOTALLY NEED TO MEET IN PERSON

Lucas Baker | Resident Evil

[1019]

NAME: Inigo
CHARACTERS: Lucas Baker

TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Lucas is the twenty-something-year-old former black sheep of a son in a quote-unquote Zombie Redneck Torture Family of 4-7 (depending on who you count!) - and up to arriving in Ryslig, he'd been using the past few years of being able to get away with it to turn a since-childhood fondness for and prodigious level of ability in tinkering into a hobby in morbid engineering, from needlessly lavish locking mechanisms to homebrew weapons to deadly traps. When his parents aren't around to put a muzzle on their puppy, he's generally high-spirited, chatty, inquisitive (if selectively), and playful - but he also has the attitude of an obnoxious, bratty preteen when on his best behavior; and on his worst, he's a sadist who loves feeling he's got the upper hand on others - and gets, well, pissy if he's rightfully put in his place.

He's also a vampire, and is stoked to have his changes coming in!

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: In general, he's been having a grand time thus far living parents-free in a place where morbidity and violence seem to be a part of everyday life; and interests/habits-wise, he's been bumming around with whatever cash he can find or swipe (he's still not yet thought about getting a damn job, you swine, though that might change if something strikes him as actively interesting), and regularly scavenging appropriate spots in Vandare and Bavan (spending the meat of his time and having a home base in the latter) for scrap and electrical equipment to use in projects - and now that he's got bloodthirstiness and the fangs to match it, he's going to happily start getting back on the trapmaking horse.

In terms of plottier things, he is interested in how the gods "work", and has expressed that especially re: the fog and what exactly it has to do with transformation - though he vehemently intends to stay neutral.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I'm thoroughly interested in potential partners-in-crime and antagonistic CR, the latter absolutely including characters who he might be able to interact with in a rival sort of sense or who'd be up to try keeping him in line! That isn't all I like the idea of, however - seriously, if you've got anything in mind, I'll be willing to go for it!

ANYTHING ELSE: Three things about Lucas! He is, one, from a canon installment that's fairly new and spoil-able; two, a bit over-the-top and potentially grating; and three, an addition to Ryslig's resident... evil residents, as a canonical serial killer who pulls out all the stops to terrorize and then slaughter targets. If you'd rather avoid any subjects in interactions with him or him altogether, on those or any other fronts, please, feel free to comment onto his opt-out post!

For more general purposes, I can be contacted over on Plurk at schmendricks, as usual! In addition, re: tagging speed, I run on PST, and I try to knock out at least one round of tags/sit down for one deficated session of tags a night, though personal obligations may cause me to need to skip one or two days a week.

[thischaos]

I love Lucas so much that I'm rushing through the game so I can play with you without spoilers. When I come back, I would love to see what type of CR Lucas and Mello develop based on their mutual vampism and uncouth demeanor. I dunno if he'd be a good partner in crime because he's very "Just do what I say," but I think they can raise some hell together!

[chocolaterazor]

NAME: Drag
CHARACTERS: Sora Shiunin, Touya

TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Touya's a cinnamon roll clinging onto his ideals for always doing the right thing despite how cruel Ryslig is to people.

Sora's a little teenage brat that adores sweets and is a former card-game-duelist child soldier (there's no murder in YGO), but he's still cool with playing card games for fun and in a more entertainer type of role... even if his FNAF 4-like fusion monsters don't really lend themselves to being child-friendly.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Sora's gonna be dealing with turning into a robot, Touya will just be around for... things.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: The candy devil needs more friends. But otherwise I'm really up for anything, anytime.

ANYTHING ELSE: Might be a bit slow in tagging since I'm radically changing gears for my main muse vs backburner muse roles. But if you need a boomeranger, I'm someone you can call.

[soft_focus]

Honestly as much as we just mix and match our CR freaking everywhere-

Espurr and Sora REALLY NEED TO MEET

[thischaos]

NAME: Carrie

CHARACTERS: Mello

TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Tempted to just link my app. BUT. Mello is a former honor roll student who went awry. There was leather and terrorism and in the end, he died in an anti-climactic scene which embitters him to this day. Failed successor of the greatest detective in the world, ex-mafia, current Nester, vamp, and generally not beat for interactions that don't benefit him in some way.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: I DON'T KNOW. I just re-rolled his monster then went on hiatus (lol) so as of right now, he's hanging around the nesters and enjoying not having a tail. As far as future goals, I don't think he's going to put up with the gods' crap for every long and will want to do something incredibly stupid that sounds like a good idea at the time. Oh, and he also wants to own all of Vandare, but that's a long way off.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I LOVE CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT. Any scenario that is like slice of life that ends in some new awakening/realization is bomb. Quests, adventures involving killing the gods, nefarious dealings, back-door blood sales: hit me.

ANYTHING ELSE: Well I'm hiatused right now but I'm around on plurk so if anyone wants to plan a thing, we can plan things. I'm going to cut down on my tl;dr prose tags when I get back because as beautiful/fun they are, they're energy sucking and I'm tagging like 2 things per night when I could be hitting 20. So I'm really, really looking for action logs.

[lastsonofgilead]

NAME: Mary
CHARACTERS: Roland Deschain
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Newly changed were-bear, Gunslinger (knight with a gun), sworn to the White and against the Red. And at this point, he's pretty sure the Fog God is aligned with the Red.
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Roland (and Bert) go hunting, sell the meat, cure and sell the leathers. They're going to start doing like hunting 'trips' for money with npcs in Bavan. Go hunting with monsters. I don't think he'll be taking sides with the gods, but he still wants to learn more about them, at least the Fourth God and the Night god.
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Ahhh, learning about the Fourth and Night gods, new CR (both pos and neg). Meeting new people. He tends to be around Bavan and the Delgado ranch, so people around there could be prone to seeing him.
ANYTHING ELSE: I can be slow sometimes, but I try to get back within 24 hours. I don't drop - I like to see threads played out to a nice stopping place.

Also once I can get nice enough caps, he'll be having a PB change. I'm just going to handy-wave that he's always been Idris Elba and isn't having a sudden race change.



Also, I'm on plurk as gyhldeptis

[showyouthesight]

I just want to play with Roland~. Rin hates gods so there's that?

[nanaharu]

NAME: Gee
CHARACTERS: Haruka Nanase
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Swimboy nymph who is quiet and eccentric and has become ever more reclusive since more god conflict stuff has affected him. He's feeling like trying to stay out of it has not helped at all, so he's at a crossroads now.
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: You know the Typhon Theater, the seedy burlesque? Well, since he was employed there for a long time and I hadn't seen anyone else use it in a while, I decided (with permission) to have the NPC owner get eaten in the last change log and make Haruka the new owner of the place. He's not very suited to the role or even the place (he just did shows so he could buy an electric grill for his unlimited mackerel) but he has an incentive to try which makes it more fun.
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: He'll soon be advertising the Typhon Theater now under new ownership, and he'll be looking especially for newbies and neutrals to employ in various jobs, performer or not. Anyone is welcome to spend their money there, even if he dislikes god followers... but I'm toying with ideas of how the place can be useful for Intrigue reasons. We'll see how the setting up goes first! Other than that, he's usually at the Rainbow Pool or around Lake Dala.
ANYTHING ELSE: Now that I have more direction in what I think I'm going to do, I'll... do better in keeping up threads and tagging out, sob. But I'm excited to try to make this theater thing work, which will generally include a number of mingles.

Aya | Kira Yoshikage/Yuuko Ichihara

[witchofwishes]

NAME: Aya
CHARACTERS: Kira Yoshikage and Yuuko Ichihara
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Kira is from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. And he's Morioh-cho's local serial killer and hand fetishist. I recently put up an opt-out post for him as he's definitely a bad dude and can make people wicked uncomfortable.

Yuuko is a powerful wish granting witch from xxxHolic, one of CLAMP's many series. She's a completely different cup of tea who is happily taking in all of Ryslig and is being super upbeat and positive about it. Cause this beats the heck out of being dead.
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Kira is currently on the downlow after all that conduit business. Because of the 4th God's victory he no longer feels hunger. So, this loser will no longer be eating which results in him dying at the end of every month. (slow clap it out for Kira.) That's something I'm interested in playing with eventually.

Yuuko is probably going to end up being very fog involved but while she's not doing that I was intending to have her teaching human "magic" to people. Crystals, herbs, sigils. Just because you lost your magic here doesn't mean you still can't be magical. I think that'll be a lot of fun and I already have a few people interested in that!
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Dealing with Kira's eating issues and moving up that 4th ladder are 2 big goals of mine.
And getting Yuuko on the fog's side for her. I'm hoping to eventually have enough coins to get her shop back. And guys!!! I got ideas for that. Also her just being the mom to all you poor sweet monster children.
ANYTHING ELSE: I'm super down for any plots you throw my way, most of the time, so if you have plans that'd involve me just throw me a line! I'm usually very flexible about what you can do to my characters. Like I said, Kira has an opt out post if you need it and Yuuko is a good bean so she doesn't need one. Never hesitate to contact me about ideas you have.

[expectional]

I can offer Nagisa to help nudge Yuuko along the fog alignment path if you want! He liked her well enough from their Network chat, and he'll like her more once he learns she's a nymph, AND he's always down to talk about how wonderful the fog god is. Especially with people who don't immediately start calling her evil.

also please be his plant mom.

Gale

[abysmalactor]

NAME: Gale
CHARACTERS: Shingo Sawatari
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: The most obnoxious card game nerd. Is still convinced he's the protagonist. The fact that he keeps inadvertently copying said protagonist both in canon and in game doesn't help his case. Has somehow actually managed to get some character development to the point where he actually does want to help his friends out but still has no problem with double-talking out of his ass. Seriously, it's unreal just how many times he'll change positions when trying to defend his stance. He's still very dramatic, though. Is actually pretty competent, but between his attitude and his status as resident comic relief, said competence goes unacknowledged.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: we're not entirely sure how he became the most mentally stable kid in the Arc-T but he is absolutely the most mentally stable kid in the Arc-T and he's not entirely sure what to do with this newfound position. between yuzu gunning even deeper into fourth god warfare and yuya going through more changes and even others in his CR either getting close to changing alignments or monsters, it seems like being such a bastion of steadiness is going to be vital. But...a guy like him doing that...this is going to lead to disaster for sure...

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I'm trying to expand Shingo's CR pool a little bit more, so I've been trying to tag out with him more. Shingo's also been kinda sorta learning how to Friend Good these past few months, so anything that can help him (or hinder him, hindering is funny) grow a bit more in that department would be great!

ANYTHING ELSE: I live in EST and tend to have a busy day schedule. Depending on what school I'm substituting at, I may or may not have a wifi signal to tag with during the day. If I don't, you'll only see me tagging in the evenings, so heads up for that!




he would do this and it's fucking disgusting

[soft_focus]

so shingo ur other best mate might be about to turn away from the fourth

bad news it might end up going 180 degrees instead of just true neutral

[adandyinspace]

NAME: Chinchilla
CHARACTERS: Dandy
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: An in-depth look at Dandy as a character.
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Hopefully a lot! Dandy's still kinda new, but he already has a few goals. The main one is opening up his own BooBies restaurant, which he won't be getting until he has enough coins anyway. So until then, he'll probably just talk about it a lot, scoping out for people who could make this horrible magic happen. The other one is trying to score with the Fog God. I never said these were smart goals.
But until then, he also needs to find somewhere to live so he can stop mooching off people. If he gets the right kind of motivation, he could get a job and just swallow his pride and rent an apartment, or I might save up some coins to get him a place. If anyone's interested in housing him until then for Interesting CR Experiences™, hit me up!
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN:
-MER STUFF! Dandy's going to really dig being a horrible fish person, so it'd be really nice to explore that new aspect of him. He totally counts his tail as part of his ass.
-Idk, just more CR in general! People who tolerate him, people who start off hating him but learn he isn't as bad as he pretends to be, people who just hate him, it's all good.
-Dogs? Just let him pet all the dogs? Doggo werewolves totally count.
ANYTHING ELSE:

[maskinglayer]

i mean i'm loving their interactions and stuff already and wanted that to continue anyway BUT jataro is also a mer who absolutely loves it!! so if you wanted to do anything with that!

[nomorekings]

NAME: Bennu
CHARACTERS: Katsuie Shibata
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: In his own world, Katsuie was the vanguard of the army of Nobunaga Oda, the Demon King. He screwed that up in a truly spectacular fashion, felt really, really sorry for himself, and was about to maybe fix things before he ended up in Ryslig. And how he's been in Ryslig for almost two and a half years, most of which have been spent continuing to screw up his life in a spectacular fashion. Or just living in the basement of a bar and writing and illustrating creepypasta and weird monster erotica.

And now he has cats. So he's somehow gone from "samurai displaced in time" to "everyone on the internet."

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: He's currently VERY CONFUSED about being human (as far as he can tell) and will get EVEN MORE CONFUSED when the actual physical changes that are part of being a Nephilim start happening. This upheaval is going to lead him to turn away from the Fog God, who he's kind of been a half-assed follower of to begin with, so who knows what stupid thing he's going to replace that with. I'm open to suggestions.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: GET HIM OUT OF THE HOUSE. MAKE HIM DO THINGS. At this point, he may be South Vandare's only permanent monster resident and he really has no IC reason to change that, much to my frustration. He needs people to enable his weird hobbies or at least try to kick his ass into gear. Or just kick his ass. Just kicking his ass works, too.

At some point, he's going to have to have a yard sale. He's been cured of his hoarding instinct and he has so much crap.

ANYTHING ELSE: I may be a little scarce until mid-June. I'm still not 100% sure of that yet. I have a substitute job in a first grade class until the end of the year that's now starting a week early, but I have no idea yet what the actual classroom situation is like or what my workload is going to be day to day.

[showyouthesight]

I need to play with human Katsuie. Rin wants to bitch about Mitsuhide being crazy again.

[pomaded]

NAME: Rachel
CHARACTERS: Josuke Higashikata
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Single Goblin, likes looking fierce, #bizarreadventures, punching people who are assholes and long walks on the beach. Josuke's a good kid but he's got a delinquent streak that Ryslig brings out in full force and a super short temper when it comes to people talking shit about his hair.
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Most of the month he'll be running his deliveries but he's also doing a little some exploring with Rohan. Otherwise, the usual. He died last month so he's a little quieter and less confrontational than normal and just looking to chill out while having a breakdown over the fact he'll be 18 in june.
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: NEW CR. Josuke needs to make friends with people who aren't psychopaths. We could arrange something around his job (if your character runs a business, he could easily be dropping something off, etc) or they could just naturally meet each other looking for monster-appropriate clothes or records or whatever. I super want this boy to go check out some of the clubs and go dancing though so that might be fun to mess with too!! who wants to learn to lindy-hop with this loser
ANYTHING ELSE:

[peccatore]

This only just occurred to me but I'm Feeling It: when Marco chills a little more I'd love for him to get more... dadly towards Josuke.

Josuke wanting a fish dad or not is absolutely not a requirement (I mean, you being down for this is v much a requirement BUT YOU GET ME).

[dominateartimus]

NAME: Joc
CHARACTERS: Sandrath aka Xander
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: A former arch-angel who was abandoned by his prior species and returned the favor by betraying them. He was enjoying his new life as a fallen arch-angel until his old mentor showed up. The reunion didn't go well. Not long after that, he ends up at Ryslig as a human before turning in to a shade.

He currently works as a carpenter (mostly working in Sanctuary & doing repairs in Vandare), a part of the Task Force (although the leader of that is currently MIA) and a bouncer/enforcer/occasional overseer at the Devil's Nest (which is in the middle of changing locations). San was aligned with the 4th god back in April 2015, which lasted for several months before he broke ties after an event involving a friend from home. He's currently neutral and not interested in joining either side despite having a rune from the mountain god. He can usually be found at Brasskettle manor in Vandare or Sanctuary.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Working, making up for lost time, not going to be pleased with the gods for turning people in to angels/Nephilim.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I'm usually game for positive or negative type scenarios. Interactions or confrontations from 4th God followers or others who have a rune from the mountain god or have become angels/Nephilim. Possibly bonding with any other supernatural beings (previously or currently adjusting to their new changes), but that might go awry depending on his mood at the time.

ANYTHING ELSE: I have an Opt-Out Post for him, if you're not comfortable with him discussing morbid or sexual things. As for my tagging schedule, I try to get to them as soon as I can (afternoons to late night, central timezone/CST) but I've been slower due to working from my tablet while my computer is being repaired. I can be reached through plurk: joccatpaw or PMs on DW.

[showyouthesight]

Rin might be interested in potentially recruiting Xander for resistance help since Xander has been around a long time...

Kit | Heather Mason

[foolishwren]

NAME: Kit

CHARACTERS: Heather Mason

TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: In Ryslig, Heather is a small fierce bundle of scruffy feathers, sharp teeth, and ANGER. In canon, she's... well, she doesn't have the feathers or fangs, but she was pretty angry there, too. Having been in Ryslig for several years, Heather's now a traumatized young twenty-something rather than the traumatized teenager she started as. Her loyalties are fierce but not particularly widespread, and getting on her good side is a little like trying to flip a hedgehog over. She's in perpetual survival-mode and has a particular, personal loathing for both gods (ESPECIALLY AFTER WHAT HAPPENED TO THE DEVIL'S NEST...).
That said, under all the bristling, she's still pretty much a kid who had to grow up too fast, and most of her good role models keep dropping like flies. Which makes it awfully easy to teeter on the moral scale... but hey, that's what happens when you get absorbed into a small club of very dramatic open criminals.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: WELL Heather is currently on the road with the other displaced members of the Devil's Nest, cruising around and looking for a new home. Her apartment in Bavan is occasionally visited, but mostly left barren. Busking for cash and PLOTTING THE DEMISE OF THE GODS looking out for what few pals she has is her life now.
BUT, THERE IS A CERTAIN CITY LOOMING ON THE HORIZON...

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: As useless as it is, I'm very open to just about anything! Positive CR is great, Heather's a tough nut to crack but deep down she knows how far she's slipping and how much she could use a firm setting-straight and a shoulder to cry on.
NEGATIVE CR IS ALSO GREAT, and boy is she good at getting that, as confrontational and snippy as she is. She's managed to get away with a LOT during her time here, and while this is 1. Fairly likely to keep happening because she's like a tenacious flea you just can't keep down, and 2. Hilarious, I'm more than open to having her face the consequences for being an outspoken god-hater and all-around brat.
SO COME AT ME Y'ALL!

ANYTHING ELSE: Silent Hill is a very triggery canon! The series deals with very upsetting themes such as child abuse, cults and brainwashing, sexual assault, forced pregnancy, and plenty else. I generally try to avoid getting too detailed about ANY of these subjects unless it's directly relevant to the thread at hand, but always feel free to let me know if there's something I should avoid mentioning entirely while threading with you!
As for tagging speed, I am definitely on the slower side, but will happily backtag as long as anyone wants!

YO!

Haa, I'm not necessarily expecting any CR between our two to ultimately go well, since even after living the Ryslig life, your madam's still probably much more scrupulous than my guy, but I'll still look to tag her again, if that's all right with you! And also he would kind of still have it in mind to make good on filling her in on what he's turned out to be.

[tsunderoid]

NAME: Lirance
CHARACTERS: A2 from NieR: Automata
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: A2 is a horrible shitgoblin murder robot. She enjoys include killing machines, being crabby, and long walks on the beach.
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: A2 is turning into a gargoyle! She's already got the wings, claws, and scales, and I'm thinking about giving her the hunger later this month after things calm down. Currently she's rooming with 9S and continuing to adjust to life as an organic being. I'm going to be putting up a network post later this week asking for help about some of that stuff. It sure is hard to be made out of meat!

Later, I'm interested in pushing her towards the Fog God, but this is something that will take some development and time, especially given her current intense distrust for both sides.
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Positive CR! Chill bros to hang out with! A2 is crabby, but she does tend to respond well to people who are calm and friendly to her, or will put up with her being a blunt jackass at times.

Negative CR! I have noticed I've been "softening" her a little in an effort to get some early CR, and I've love to play her as the awful, foul-mouthed jerk she can be in canon. If there's anyone who wants to dish out some antagonism to her and are okay with receiving some in turn, I'm super down for that!

ANYTHING ELSE:

[atjourneysend]

I don't how our current thread will play out, but I'm enjoying it and definitely want more. Raynie's also a gargoyle, so maybe that can be a starting point once they stop hitting each other.

Revi | Raynie

[atjourneysend]

NAME: Revi

CHARACTERS: Raynie

TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: A cheerful young woman without much tact, fiercely loyal to the ones she trusts. She used to be a mercenary and has been fighting her entire life, which she's sick of. She just wants to live normal, peaceful life for a change – and of course will get none of that in Ryslig. She's turning into a gargoyle.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Right now I have no solid plans other than changes: learning to fly and use fire magic, getting the hunger. Her opinion of the gods is very low right now, but I'm considering having her join the fog god eventually. I never played a god aligned character and Raynie has a history of working for questionable people. Haven't decided if I go through with that, though!

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Friends! Raynie doesn't always think things through, so I'd love her find people to do stupid reckless thing with. Also more responsible people to tell her NOT to do the stupid thing. ~Adventures~ of any sort are always fun.

ANYTHING ELSE: My plurk is sillysymphony. I'm on a European time zone and usually busy on weekends. I try to tag back at least once a day but sometimes it's longer.

[keeponstrolling]

I can volunteer Johnny as a responsible one! But at the same time if she's persuasive enough, accompany her to do the stupid reckless thing so he can at least keep an eye on things and make sure nobody gets set on fire 8-I

Tommy's also up for just straight up idiot shenanigans though. He's uh. very thankful for her help. and appreciates it greatly.

Kain Highwind | FFIV

[bound_skyward]

NAME: Vorpal
CHARACTERS: Kain Highwind
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Kain is a dragoon, a type of knight, from a fantasy-style kingdom who has a lot of brooding and loner type tendencies. He was mind controlled due to his messed up feelings (which are due to unrequited love), and forced to betray his friends back home. He still holds a lot of guilt from this and tends to blame himself for more than he needs to. He tends to push people away and such, making him come off as very aloof. Despite that, he's an honorable and loyal sort of person and tries hard to be better and to atone for his mistakes. He's been in Ryslig for a little over a year now, and has spent most of that time in his main form as a werebear. A werebear with wings, because of course he needs to fly (it's the one thing that makes him happy here!) Ryslig has done a lot of awful things to him, making him somewhat more distrustful overall. While he tries hard to cling to his humanity, he finds himself often embracing his more animalistic side sometimes.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Kain is laying low after experiencing a very gruesome death that was shared over the network. He's definitely having his share of nightmares and paranoia right now. Soon enough, he'll be dealing with realizing he's lost a memory. He lives in Bavan in a top level apartment, and works as a guard at Liewen Labs.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: God stuff is always cool! It's gotten more complicated for Kain lately... he feels somewhat forsaken by the Fourth because of how he suffered in that last plot. (Though he has to question things a little, is he devout enough? Did he bring this on himself?) Someday, I want him to switch gods, as side switching is kind of his thing. I also have plans starting in June to make him temporarily a Lich for four months. Playing with that form is something I'd love to do! I'm always eager to throw him into horrible things and negative CR... Poking at his issues and at what happened are always great. I also enjoy letting him make new friends, he's the sort who always needs more of those. He's going to need a lot of help to get over his latest ordeal.

ANYTHING ELSE: Go ahead and add me on plurk at vorpal! I'm always up for plotting!

[expectional]

I would be down for doing more with Kain and Nagisa if you want! They had a decent conversation on the network that one time and he is all about showing fourthies the glorious light of the fog god. So if you want to build up to a side switch, he could possibly help with that. Assuming they don't manage negative cr instead of positive...I never can tell how things will go with this kid until they are actually going....

[wrenchinald]

NAME: AgentKaz
CHARACTERS: Liquid Snake, Wrench
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Liquid Snake is one of the clone sons of Big Boss, and the one who's probably angriest about it. This is because he thinks he got the bad genes. The recessive genes. Don't ask. Here in Ryslig, he's a fish monster and he's surprisingly settled down a bit. Although he still hates the fog god for all her bullshit.

Wrench is a hacker, an engineer, an anarchist, and a guy who knows how to make shit explode. He hides his face with a mask he made and programmed himself, both to fool face and voice recognition software, and to hide his insecurities. Shhh, don't tell anyone. He's got his mask fixed too, to the best he can manage around here. He's on his way to becoming a wendigo and he doesn't give a shit about either god because NO GODS NO MASTERS.
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Liquid is STILL recovering from the whole Stocke killing him thing. I also intend to have him discover his water magic abilities relatively soon!

Wrench is still settling down, squatting in a pretty nice abandoned place, and trying to crack open the secrets of the shitty computers, as well as looking for shit to build. He's been dealing with his new claws and fangs and horns and also being dead.
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Liquid:
Nothing really specific, except maybe training with water magic or something. I don't do enough underwater type stuff either. But he is open for a lot of stuff. Maybe something fun so he stops sulking. Not that he'd admit to sulking.

Wrench: anything with trying to work with Ryslig technology. He finds it very annoying, what with being from modern times at all, but that just makes the challenge that much better. Help him hack an ASCII dick into RSDOS.

or just going around and fucking shit up, he is always about that.
ANYTHING ELSE: i generally try to reply within 24 hours, usually earlier.

[godofthemachine]

Oh oh oh, can we have hacking buddies? AM would enjoy hacking ASCII dicks into RSDOS.

[maskinglayer]

NAME: Ki or Kinam!
CHARACTERS: Jataro Kemuri
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Jataro is a scatter-brained, kind of slow 10 year old with severe self esteem issues. He hates adults due to the neglect and mistreatment he suffered from his mom, teachers and every other adult he interacted with. Despite his somewhat sadistic interests and enjoyment of murdering said adults, he's a very polite and well mannered kid who's pretty sweet in the end. You just...have to look past his everything else. He's from Danganronpa so naturally he has a talent just like those teens, and his is in arts and crafts, meaning he's a child prodigy at anything that's covered by those two terms. Seriously, he could put his stuff in a museum. He's definitely your typical 10 year old boy who enjoys bugs, gross things and teasing his friends, though he's convinced everyone does or should hate him, even the adults that he hates. In Ryslig he's a growing rock lobster based mer and he's on Team Fog!

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Along with the usual Ryslig rigamarole of changes, cannibalism and other fun stuff, he'll be exploring and generally harassing people on the network. He's also going to be doing some art projects and, coming up in the next few months, will be working on the fun activity of murdering humans for a gift for Fog Mom. So that will be fun for everyone. Eventually he's going to be getting that mask of his off too!

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I know "anything" is discouraged but anything really. I'd love for more people gently help him in the direction of "you're not trash and it's okay to not be hated" just by being nice to him and tolerating him. Likewise, I'd enjoy negative CR as well, considering he's 100% okay with senseless murder, mugging adults and robbing stores, and is just generally kind of irritating/creepy all around (or, you know. People who will enjoy and encourage that side of him too are fun.) Getting to know some other foggies is always a plus too, and if there are any more kids (like 14 and under) out there that I'm missing CR with hmu!! Or if there's anything that YOU'RE interested in that Jataro can fill, hmu for that as well!

ANYTHING ELSE: I have no personal triggers myself, but Danganronpa Another Episode is a particularly dark game in the series, dealing with a lot of heavy topics especially child abuse of all kinds, as well as suicide. Because of that, I've got a handy dandy opt out post! That explains exactly what's covered and what you can expect tagging with Jataro and if you'd like me to avoid specific subjects or would like to avoid tagging him all together, please let me know! I don't want to make anyone uncomfortable, and no hard feelings if he's not your cup of tea!

You can also hit me up on knittybitty for plotting, chatting, etc as well. Feel free to add me if you'd like!

[goryteller]

KAT IS SUCH A BIG FAN OF JATARO.

[goryteller]

NAME: Nigh
CHARACTERS: Katurian Katurian and Clarence
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Katurian is an horror writer who also killed both of his parents in a cold rage. He spends his time writing needlessly violent fairy tales and being twitchy as hell. I'd say that "sorrow" is his middle name, but his middle name is also Katurian. Katurian is a shade.

Clarence is the living embodiment of a virus that renders people disoriented, paranoid, and homicidal, and he's about as pleasant as that makes him sound. He likes playing deadly pranks, laughing alone with a murder salad, and eating gummy worms by the handful. Clarence is a former member of an alien hivemind and also a faerie.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Katurian is adapting to his new life as a shade, and finding that he... kind of likes it, despite his initial terror, re: his transformation. He's also leaning towards aligning with the Fog God because he believes she might be able to save his brother. He works at Pandemonium Books.

Clarence is a newly pledged Fourthie, since the Fourth God promised him he'd never be alone again if he aligned. He doesn't have a job and makes his money by mugging people and robbing convenience stores. He's going to be spending a lot of time in the Arcade, because video games are amazing.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: For Katurian, I'd like him to eventually join with the Fog God in the Worst Alignment Decision Ever. In the meantime, I'm interested in alllllll kinds of CR. Want to beat him up? Sure! Want to give him a hug and a cup of hot cocoa? Definitely! I'd also like him to start murdering abusive adults once he develops his hunger, although that'll be a little while from now.

For Clarence, I'm totally interested in PVP scenarios. He spends a lot of times starting fights on the network, and I'd love for that to bite him in the ass eventually. I'd also love it if he had the chance to murder someone, because he looooves murder but hasn't had a chance to kill any of his monster brethren just yet.

ANYTHING ELSE: Katurian's canon is very dark and contains mentions of abuse, child murder, mental illness, and suicide. These topics will inevitably surface in some of his posts. Because of this, he has an opt-out post. Clarence also has an opt-out post, but more because he's a dick. And an insect.

For plotting needs, you can reach me on plurk at dendrite! C:

[expectional]

Umm i think you mean BEST alignment choice ever.

[icefallen]

NAME: Qu-ko
CHARACTERS: Rio Kamishiro (icefallen)

TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Rio has been in Ryslig for about a year and a half now, and it shows. She's turned sixteen, fallen in love, lost that love, lost a whole bunch of other people and things, and overcome a lot of miscellaneous hardship all in that time frame. She remains very strong-willed and fiercely independent, and pretty damn good at just about everything she tries her hand at, but with an empathetic side and -- secretly -- a sense of self-worth that has been decimated gradually over time. She worries about living on borrowed time, since she is from a canon point after she has died, but I think eventually she'll pick herself up and find something to cling to.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Having just lost all of her castmates in one night, including her brother, Rio is... depressed. She'll be turning into a demon in the next few months, but for now, she's human, and feeling worthless about it. I plan to start her first changes in next month's wave. For the most part, I think she'll be trying to make herself useful or find some purpose in being here as long as she has; throwing things at the wall and seeing what sticks, basically.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: She could really use friendship and a pick-me-up at the moment, but I also wouldn't say no to people kicking her ass for it, as that may very well be what she needs to some extent, too. Potentially finding out she is not, in fact, turning into a gargoyle again would be a fun thing to explore, too, particularly when she regains the interest in coming out during the daytime.

Because of being a demon now, too, I'm thinking the first precursor to physical changes is that she's going to become a bit more ruthless than usual, more willing to sacrifice others and cause collateral damage than she's previously been known to support in others. I'd love to have others react to that when they notice she's kind of... taken a turn for the dark and edgy? I dunno.

I might also consider aligning her with a god, though I'm not 100% decided on either one yet. Hit me up if you want to discuss this more, and want your character to sell her on one!

ANYTHING ELSE: You can hit me up on Plurk at quko! Especially if we've threaded together previously, since I love hashing out continued CR.

Gen | Johnny Alpha | Tommy Monaghan

[strontiumdog]

NAME: Gen
CHARACTERS: Johnny Alpha and Tommy Monaghan!
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS:
Tommy is a hitman who dresses like an edgy 90s comicbook mess, but is actually a real sweetie on the inside. He's an all-american labrador who has a habit of putting his foot in his mouth sometimes, but he's a very cheerful, earnest individual who sees the silver lining to a lot of things. That said, he is somebody who kills people for money and rationalizes it by only accepting jobs on 'bad' people.

Johnny on the other hand, is kind of an angry mutant criminal mess but keeps it together through sheer willpower and frowning at things a lot. He grew up as a child soldier, then became a bounty hunter for most of his life and as a result, can't really sleep at night. He's kind of emotionally distant until somebody needs his help, then he's there in a jiffy. He has a soft heart in there somewhere, and to be honest you don't need to dig very deep to find it. Extraordinarily self-sacrificing in the right circumstances. Has a very soft spot for kids. Absolutely ruthless when he feels its necessary. Thinks about justice a lot.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING:
Johnny will be throwing himself fully into God business, now that he's aligned with the Fourth and latched onto the cause. He's mildly surprised and dismayed to find out that not everyone is armed at all times, and not everyone knows how to fight properly. So he will probably be doing something about that. He will also be going rampaging minotaur sometime soon, because somebody hasn't been eating right. He's also been involved in some vaguely shady business, but has mostly been doing investigative work because that's what he does best.

Tommy will be hanging around Bavan, looking for jobs and dealing with changes at the same time.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Both positive and negative CR!
Lots of options for Tommy! Want a feud settled between monsters without ever putting yourself in the firing line? Want someone kneecapped? How about just an intimidating message? Monaghan's your man! He's already advertised his services on the network before, and he's thinking about branching into security too. He's a naturally outgoing guy too, who likes making friends. So if you ever need somebody to drag your character out for dumb shenanigans or rope you into helping out with a hit, he's your man. In terms of dealing with changes, he's having a bit of a crisis about how to shoot guns with big ol talon hands, and will want to figure out how. So, engineers and builders are welcome to try and find a solution together with him for this problem?

But for Johnny in particular, I think some positive CR in the way of friends would be nice. It would be good to push him out of his comfort zone of holding people at arms length a bit. and for someone to drag him out of his obsessions when he gets unhealthily fixated on things. Or depending on the kind of person they are, encourage it. I really don't mind which direction it takes him. Basically anyone around Johnny's age. He has a rather bad impression of Fog followers at this point, and maybe meeting some more reasonable ones would help with reminding him that he doesn't have to treat things and people like he's still in an outright war?

ANYTHING ELSE: Johnny's canon involves child abuse, military use of children, and discrimination against mutants which is a pretty obvious sci-fi parallel to nazism. He's also expressed suicidal sentiment, and may do so again. Let me know if that's an issue! My plurk is at betcher

[soft_focus]

Yknow when you run only kids in a game 'soft spot for children' is like a sirens call-

Nah but while I've had fun with Johnny on the network I'd honestly love to throw...pretty much any of my kids at either of these two. Reira would be neat, since aside from being a fourth follower herself, the kiddo has her own unfortunate war related background. Noa, on the other hand is himself a 'sane foggy' main drawback being that as much as he is mentally near 20 he's...obviously Very 12, whoops.

I HAVE NO IDEA WHO I WANNA THROW AT TOMMY THOUGH might go with Espurr when the window comes, who knows...Espurr is weird, what with literally being a former pokemon ahaha.
