Mey

[restinglichface]

NAME: Mey
CHARACTER: Lup

TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER:
The second half of the Texmex Twins, Lup is Taako's identical twin sister - at least they used to be identical until he lost some of his beauty. Now she's officially the hotter twin.

She's a high elf wizard with a love of cooking, high drama, and blowing shit up. She's gregarious and very social, but can come off pretty rude in her effort to be brutally honest. Due to their shitty upbringing, Lup has some Trust Issues™ and takes time to really warm up to people. Because she comes from a podcast medium, icons will never be perfectly matching, but the twins are described as being 'ethereally, femininely beautiful' and still look to be in their mid-twenties despite having lived through two centuries.

Here in Ryslig, she's lost her magic (which is a constant stress), and is slowly turning into a naga, so her emotions are a bit all over the place. General appearance information can be found over here and her monster info page is right over this way!

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER WILL BE DOING: Right now Lup is still very much in the WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON stage. She's still early transformation, which is terrifying, while also just still getting herself settled here. Within the next month or so she'll likely be branching out more, especially once the denial of all of this wears off. Currently, a lot of her time is spent with her twin brother, Taako, and her husband, Barry, but I'm hoping she'll make some new friends!

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Friendship, rivalry, mostly just new interactions that might get Lup out there and accepting of her monster-ness. She's very much a leader type, so coming into a situation like this where she very much doesn't know what to do and can't just fight her way out of it, she's going to stumble along the way and it would be great for her to have some friends outside of her canon cr to rely on. I also just want her to learn more about the world and the cities and just HONESTLY everything. She has SO much to learn.

ANYTHING ELSE: I'm a medium/slow tagger, but if anyone ever wants to boomerang, just let me know! There are some weeks at work where I'm just bombarded and will have little time for tagging and then others where I'm able to keep up on my tags quick. Just be patient with me! I'm also the queen of backtagging into forever, so you never have to worry about me dropping things. I know I've been here a month already, but I just love you all and this game. ♡

[gourmandized]

MORE IMA/LUP FRIENDSHIP STUFF

[alphaophiuchi]

Hey. Heyyy.

I really want to toss my also-magicless naga at Lup. I think that sounds like a great time. c:

[hauntpadour]

Lup get in here and science, learn about how Rys works from him. He needs an assistant to help him publicly harass people and look at horrifying events.

[thumbsdown]

NAME: Steff

CHARACTERS: Craig Boone

TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Moody sniper from a post apocalyptic wasteland with a Bad Past and plenty of issues because of said past, enjoys drinking and shooting things

At Ryslig he's a werebear, with big fluffy bear ears and soft fur~

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Opening the Lucky 38 casino to the public this month! I'll be making a log for it soon, so if your character is interested in gambling or even just social drinking, they should totally swing by! Otherwise he's just generally moping around because he kind of mauled his boyfriend recently ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I'd love for him to make some new friends! Of course negative CR is also fine but I really would like this boy to have something nice happen to him!

ANYTHING ELSE:

[restinglichface]

Social drinking you say? I'm in!

[dameofhearts]

NAME: Kalyn
CHARACTERS: Kotoko Utsugi
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: A totally sweet, totally well-adjusted girl who just wants the world to be rainbows and butterflies and will do that through brutal murder.

Kotoko is rude, sarcastic, and can be downright nasty when pushed to it, but generally she just says childish things and uses her cute looks and being a kid to get out of trouble and not take responsibility. She also hates most adults and doesn't trust any of them, preferring a "stab first, ask questions later" method. She hates adults.
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Kotoko just lost her two closest castmates, so she's going to be Not Great for a while. She's sorta running the treehouse village on her own now afaik and definitely isn't interested in sharing her space with anyone right now, but that doesn't mean she won't be a little clingy to her CR and vulnerable for a bit.
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Bad influences?? Good influences??? Someone to drag this girl into therapy!? Kotoko's going to be loosing her frustration via wanton murder for a while here probably so if anyone wants to eat her leftovers since she's not really doing it ou of hunger...
ANYTHING ELSE: Please read my permissions stuff for Kotoko before engaging with her! Her canon, and her personal backstory especially, deals very heavily in rape, child molestation/prostitution, abuse, murder, etc. etc. and Kotoko herself is not shy at all about bringing these details up or displaying very unsettling behaviors just to make the people she's talking to uncomfortable. Obviously I can and will tone this down a lot if anyone doesn't want to engage with that, and generally I try to keep it low to begin with for that reason, but it still is part of her character.

Kotoko also has a trigger in the word "gentle" in that if it's said around her at all in any context she'll immediately break down screaming, crying, an get incredibly violent. It's really hard to get her out of it (Monaka only does it by...punching in the face....a lot...) However! I'm not opposed to people accidentally triggering her or anything so this is just a head's up that it will!

[comeasyouare]

BANGS HANDS ON TABLE! we need more interaction! let the unicorn princess dry your tears away

also, seeing as how i'm proooobably canon updating to after the end of dr3, do you think that the WOH would be probably recognizable to people not necessarily in towa? especially if they're still shsl despair. i still haven't watched AE so i'm not 100% of how that would work

USAGI

[soft_focus]

NAME: Usagi
CHARACTERS: an army Noa Kaiba, Loki (Bayonetta 2 BECAUSE OTHERWISE Y'ALL WOULD'VE THOUGHT MCU DON'T EVEN LIE), Reira Akaba
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS:

Noa

Noa is a manticore, and he'll be 13 in body and Mostly Mind come September; in his canon, he spent about 7 years as a digitally preserved dead kid whose only real purpose in existing became 'IMPRESS DAD' bc being a computer makes you stop feeling things, Or Something.

In Ryslig, he's managed to get over his personal demons enough to force his way through to some ~appearance~ of ~adulthood~ but make no mistake-he might be a Fog Priest, he might run Liewen Labs (specifically overseeing Bavan's Branch while making sure AM doesn't run the Northern Branch to the ground)...but he's a kid, and he quietly enjoys video games alongside a small army of pets. (The human staff of Liewen's Bavan Branch are incredibly well aware of this, and the fact that their boss is basically A Cat, and they just kind of roll with it because 'it's kind of adorable')

So basically he's like...a Durian? PRICKLY OUTSIDE, UNPLEASANT TRYING TO GET INSIDE but damn when you finally get there he's really capable of being an overprotective sweet kid-

Loki

Introducing the most anti-Loki of Lokis, Bayo's Loki is the former god of chaos and free will, and went through a ringer of alignments before determining the Fog to be 'kind of a mess, but a necessary mess who means well'-hence his own, low-tiered alignment. He has a tendency to rush into what Feels Right, though he IS capable of planning things...sometimes. Loki's a member of the Monster Taskforce, and also signed on as a mentor-he's also been hiding his alignment, though who knows how long that'll last when he's trying to fix up the Fog Church with Judai.

He's the OG SLIME i mean, he's the First Slime more or less, so he sort of likes to blame his fog powers on being a Slime. He also lives alone in the Adventure Time Tree-house (YES, THAT ONE), and would really like a roommate because. It's huge. He's lonely. He wants friends. :'[

Technically Loki should be 14 by this point, though I don't...think he looks any more than 12 thanks to being Goo. Rip Loki.

Reira

Priest to the Fourth, and spoiled as heck if I'm honest on an OOC level, Reira is a Basically-10 year old (birthday is May 8) kelpie who's been around *three years* almost. She has clearer memories of life in Ryslig than she does her home for the most part, and even sounds partly like the native populace. MADNESS!

She's got wings, weird noodle horns, she talks to algae...really the kid's been stacking a LOT OF STUFF. So it's a good thing she's nice-really, really nice, and naively so. There's a strange amount of things she can be blunt and brutal about (she is Definitely not above killing if necessary), but for the most part she prefers the pacifistic route...and a lot of things will actually fly over her head as a result.

TL;DR - A Very Tall (she's about 5'10'' now I'd say) Cinnamon Roll, who can fortunately defend herself.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING:

NOA

Noa should be making an advert for the Labs again at some point, since it's been a bit since he HAS...and that's basically just ~HEY COME WORK AT THE LABS~..Otherwise though, he's not actually doing a lot! So he's free for a lot of plotting there.

LOKI

Loki will be working with Judai to patch up the Fog Church! He'll also be available for SLIME MENTORING, but that's about all I've had in mind for him. Both of the boys are sort of 'see what happens' sorts, since Noa likes a sense of normalcy and Loki just kinda goes where fate takes him.

REIRA

REIRA'S SO BUSY- i mean

So Reira recently announced an Open Invite Birthday going on at the Cat Cafe- that'll be posted sometime on the 8th presumably (I gotta check with the birthday planners), but basically? PARTY, WITH CATS.

Depending on timing, she might also be taking a dive back into Fors, so THAT'S SURE A THING...And I guess she's also getting used to a full-ish Hill House again?

She Loves It.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN:

NOA

HE NEEDS MORE CHAOS IN HIS LIFE specifically good chaos though, the kind where you're awkwardly laughing in the corner afterward. Normally I'd say I'd love negative CR for him but in a weird way, despite not having much in the way of Negative CR I'd...actually say more openly positive is best? He needs more active CR in general really, and by Active I mean 'in his face'.

Also, I'd love to play with his new Priest Status~ So hit me up if you got ideas there.

LOKI

Loki is another who could use some more CR in general, as a lot of his sort of...faded out or drifted away (read: dropped. super dropped). He's got a good foothold in the Free Cast notably, but he definitely needs to be more social!! The question is 'in what', so it's a bit of a feedback loop of 'NEED CR TO DO THING NEED THING TO MAKE CR', OOPS....

I also need to do something with his animated clay bird...

REIRA

GOSH...I...I actually got nothing, laughs. I suppose it'd be fun to shake things up here, but the question is again with what?

What I am especially interested in though is her being able to show off her duel disk, or her skills with weapons in an environment that uh.

Doesn't. Involve people being hurt though, so that's a thing...she has a lot of cool toys that she uses on the regular so it's always fun when those are actually brought up basically.

ANYTHING ELSE:

[hauntpadour]

Loki should convince Egon to join the fog, please and thank you

[nanaharu]

NAME: Gee
CHARACTERS: Haruka Nanase
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Haruka is quiet, reserved, and has friends who he loves dearly. He also loves water, to the point where he bought water control power from Mana. He has some eccentric traits and also works hard when he sets his mind to something, actually very passionate beneath the surface.
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Currently he's one of the heads of an organized effort to fight against the Ryslig gods called the Freedom Fellowship. Because we had to have Free in there somehow. Recently, they've gone on an expedition where they've found something really interesting and useful to push their goals forward, so the effects of that may be seen soon. The Fellowship is a bit still low key right now until they make their presence really known.

Other than that, he somehow ended up with the Typhon Theater, where monsters perform all sorts of performing arts (singing, dancing, comedy, late night adult shows, etc). The place used to have more of a seedy reputation, but now they even have musicals (which I'll definitely finally post about after this). It's very friendly with humans, both accessible to the public as well as cozy with rich Bavanite patrons. He's always hiring, and looking to fill out some suburban houses he fixed from an abandoned village he found.
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: He's basically always looking for people to help out his Fellowship and finds ways to counter the power of the gods. Theater staff is always welcome so they can get even more of that money.

Also, he might keep to himself most of the time, but with three of his friends (one now his boyfriend) in here, he's always looking out for them and making sure they don't associate with anyone weird. Expect him to get nosy when it comes to them.
ANYTHING ELSE: I'm in the middle of trying to organize my time better, so I'm aiming to get tags done faster and more efficiently than before. Feel free to PM or message me at sakurapetal

also a pic too because why not


It's how he expresses his worry.

[peccatore]

MUSICALS, YOU SAY

(Marco would be interested, albeit very regretful that he can't sing in one because he'd just... hypnotise the audience)

[adandyinspace]

NAME: Chinchilla
CHARACTERS: Dandy + Hakai (bornfromanger)
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS:

Dandy is king trash boy and does his best to come off as obnoxious as possible. Despite his best efforts though, he can't always hide that he's secretly a nice person, usually towards kids and small animals. Currently a dolphin and loves every second of it, even if he's been here for over a year now. It's fine, his memory is terrible, he'll be back in space any second now. A slave to the booty.

Hakai is an ex-evil minion now tasked with trying to get along with people, and genuinely wants to succeed in this even if it goes against all his natural instincts. The biggest one is to destroy everything he sees, it'd just be really great if everything was broken is all. He's new, so he just started his changes into becoming a werekomainu and is very conflicted over this. Komainu are supposed to protect people from evil spirits where as he is an evil spirit. It messes with your head.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING:

Dandy just lost a lot of important people, including his girlfriend, and is probably gonna do what he always does when he's sad: pretend he isn't sad. It'd be a miracle if he ever brings up his feelings by himself, so don't expect him to go looking for a shoulder to cry on. He was remodeling his restaurant, but it was gonna be mermaid themed and kinda his and Maya's thing so the motivation kind of...plummeted. He's okay with having a giant building all to himself though and wouldn't mind playing around in it with some pals. Or if anyone wants to push him into getting off his ass and finishing it.

Hakai's still settling in and trying to adjust to a life where people can straight up see him. Before he could just take up residence wherever, but now it's considered "weird" and "trespassing." He basically just floats around different abandoned areas now or passes out in the middle of the street because he's used to having more stamina. What he really wants is to find a purpose and might start offering to help with tasks, especially anything that has to do with strength now that he's finally a monster.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I love all sorts of CR, so come at me! A lot of Dandy's older CR did drop and Hakai is brand new, so new friends would definitely help a lot. My characters were also made to butt heads with people too, and I love playing out a good petty argument. Or even combine both of them and get friendly bickering, it's all good. The more ridiculous, the better.

ANYTHING ELSE:

[comeasyouare]

AH SHIT IS IT TIME FOR SONIA TO SWEEP DANDY OFF HIS FEET AND BE HIS SHOULDER TO CRY ON




also the soup kitchen might actually be a really good idea for hakai if his idea of a purpose involves helping a lot of people? she would not be opposed to it whatsoever

Inigo

[1019]

NAME: Inigo
CHARACTERS: Lucas Baker (1019), Valentine (importantman), Mettaton (mettatronic)

TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS:

Lucas is a rowdy vampire hailing from black sheephood in a wholesome rural Louisiana family turned crew of mass-murdering cannibals. He's got a playful, mischievous, cruel, and intense nature and a fascination with the dangerous and morbid, which marries with his prodigious knack for engineering to turn him into a weapons-, explosives-, and trap-making master who made a hobby back on the ol' farm of developing deadly games, and the room for free indulgence in which has led over the past year to him happily viewing Ryslig as home, sweet home; between his intent on keeping his perfect life without any of the (understandable) restrictions he lived with back at his parents’ place and the return of his temporarily-missing girlfriend cooling off a period of raging at the Fog God, he is, if detachedly and for selfish reasons, a hundred percent and pretty-defensively a Fog brat.

Valentine is a masked faerie from a surreal and luuuuminous dreamworld version of Britain - wherein he won't hesitate to remind people he's mildly stung by that he is a very important man! ...He is, in fact, a street performer. And very street-smart and quick-thinking on his feet, if distractable, casually flippant, and impulsive to a huge fault; one to cringe at the idea of swallowing his pride; and kind of a chicken in the face of stress or pressure. He's an unreliable doofus - but the man's also got an easy, solid security in himself and a genuine charm.

Mettaton is another vampire! He's a multitalented performer and top-of-the-line superstar who was made to entertain and be adored, and don't he know it. He adores himself and thrives on attention, seldom thinks to tone himself down, and can be a bit one-track-minded and willing to fight dirty and decide "screw you, got mine" with regards to going for what he wants - but he's ultimately a positive and bright-minded soul who does deeply own, treasure, and aim to do the best manning possible with his ability to delight others, especially his admirers.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING:

This month, Lucas is going to be putting out a call for more potential hands on deck for the Lake Fors expedition, framing it as a trip underwater to prrrrobably where monsters go when they disappear! Essentially, his only rules for accepting people onboard will be that they cannot be anti-Fog - but in the interest of involvement being open to all, even someone who is openly so can convince him! I'm also aiming to have him hit Tier 2 Fog Follower status soon, and he'll be causing a ruckus developing weapons for a future job as an arms dealer (for cash) and seeking to dabble in looking into how magic here "works" (for personal reasons) over the weeks.

Valentine is stray-cat-strutting, essentially, still looking to get himself stable resource-, status-, and safety-wise! He doesn't have much discipline and so he's just been chilling around the city - looking at all the nice places to get lunch, window-shopping interesting knickknacks and clothes, and whatnot in between jumping at shadows assuming they're hunters - but he has been trying to adjust to having four hands toward his advantage; as a performer, his specialty is juggling. It's also not going to be long before he needs to feed, and on the note of safety, he's going to be going Fog the next time the gods make themselves a visceral, you should be concerned with this presence!

Mettaton, similarly, is just gonna keep on Mettaton-ing - he's been taking musical gigs (with emphasis on him as a singer) in such places as lounges and nice bars and restaurants around Bavan since his return, and now that he's got an official job entertaining at Mello's new bar, the Red Room, he's going to be promoting the heck out of it... and seeing what other glamorous pies he can get his fingers back into on the side. Chronologically, he's going to be officially dead on the 8th, and as he starts getting hungrier, he's going to start hypnotizing humans into paying him attention and flirting them into letting him sneak a nice-'n-non-lethal bite - and since he does think being combined to Ryslig is a big damn shame and knows the Fog God's PR isn't exactly great, I'm going to be seeking to start him down the road to joining the Fourth!

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN:

I'm always down for anything Lucas can get good and roused about (be it conflict or competition or any other kind of negative CR, him having opportunity to try to trot out a bag of tricks or take an interest in people who seem like they'll make for things being exciting, partners-in-crime or jokey/rowdy bastard shenanigans/ruckus, trouble on either end of CR, etc.) - meanwhile, for both Mettaton and Valentine, some groundwork-laying for their de-neutralizing would be great, but in addition, for the latter, the first things that come to mind are allies and/or people either to mess with 'im/keep him on his toes a bit or let his more chill and airy side shine through; while CR to bring out Mettaton's ruthless/reckless and softer/more mature sides alike would be equally fantastic, as would fellow artistes and potential flirty-buddies.

ANYTHING ELSE:

Because they're two spoilers on legs from generally-spoilery games and can have difficult personalities, along with the fact that the former's a survival/body horror game antagonist, in case one would rather not deal with or with certain things about either or both, I have an opt-out post for Lucas here and one for Mettaton here, both screening-enabled!

Other than that, to talk plotting, Ryslig, or anything else, I can also be reached on Plurk at schmendricks or on Discord at Schmendricks#4170 - feel free to add away!

[peccatore]

SLAMS IN HERE Marco isn't quite in the headspace to actively recruit anyone, but I'm sure we could find some way for him to potentially influence Mettaton Fourth-ways? Otherwise, they can just be god buddies after he joins. :U

[viliorate]

NAME: Nin
CHARACTERS: Zolf J Kimbley
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Serious oldie who has a mean streak, self-loathing, and really, really likes killing. He's a self-admitted child-murderer, though I tend not to have that come up in game because yikes. He views Ryslig as his only home, and uses sarcasm and flippancy to hide the fact that he's actually a miserable sack of shit.
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Shitposting, hating himself, picking fights, maybe being helpful when he feels like it....
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Any kind of CR-- negative CR, positive CR. Kimbley has been a follower of the Fourth God since October 2014, so I'd love to have him get involved with more Fourthies. He doesn't consider Fog followers to be enemies, but he does have a strong dislike of neutrals.

Let me know if any of that catches your interest. I can be reached most easily at kamex
ANYTHING ELSE:

[me_underfire]

STRONG DISLIKE OF NEUTRALS, you say?

[silenceofthesheep]

NAME: Dent
CHARACTERS: Gregg
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Gregg is a young twenty-something punk from a dying small town called Possum Springs who was working to get out of said small town with his boyfriend before a whole bunch of unholy doings interrupted that.

He’s a bundle of electricity in the form of a person whose hobbies include playing music badly, crimes, and smashing things. He doesn’t really think anything through and goes on pure impulse, mostly because he’s a living emotional roller coaster. He’s a pooka currently living in a box in Castle Mirai, hating on the gods. Given his own canon, he has a pretty good reason to be doing that.
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Gregg is just trying to deal with his own monster state, the consequences of being a people eater and all that, while railing against the Frog god. Since he’s learned more and more from the time he got here, the more he’s just trying to hold and find a way out (which means sometimes running your mouth against gods that you can’t do anything about). The rest of the time he’s mostly trying to pal around and give friendly help to people he sees as decent.
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I’m definitely interested in Gregg doing general friend hanging out to keep a grip on his sanity because he needs that, but I’m definitely into Gregg’s neutral stance having a negative consequence, like one of the Fog/Fourth followers clashing with Gregg’s aggressive trash talking or whatnot. Also, if anyone wants to join a band/do petty crimes with him, that’s cool too.
ANYTHING ELSE: Night in the Woods is a surprisingly heavy series that deals a lot with mental illness, abuse, death, and existential fears without getting to spoilerly. I definitely try to avoid the heavier topics but if there is a problem specifically let me know.

[zackthekiller]

Zack isn't the best person for this, but he doesn't mind hanging out with rat boy.

And is also neutral.

[vaporlike]

NAME: Bennu
CHARACTERS: Lin Xue Ya (vaporlike), Katsuie Shibata (nomorekings)
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Lin Xue Ya is a terrible person. He's an extremely skilled swordsman and passably skilled enchanter, but rather than use those abilities to, you know, help people or make the world a better place, he decided it would be more entertaining to establish himself as the most infamous thief in the land. Except stealing things from people wouldn't be enough of a challenge, so instead he considers himself a thief of pride. Basically, he targets the powerful and egotistical and contrives schemes to bring them low and completely ruin their lives.

That wouldn't be so bad, probably, if he had any interest at all in minimizing the collateral damage. Which he doesn't. If good people suffer, well...that's just how things turned out! Oh well!

In Ryslig, he's becoming a demon because of course he is.

Katsuie is a miserable, creepy, basement-dwelling nerd who has been here in Ryslig for so long that it makes it extra depressing how little progress he's managed to make towards becoming a functional member of society. He lives in Vandare with his three cats and spends the majority of his time watching television and writing horror stories and monsterotica. Sometimes he makes ink paintings to illustrate him. Basically, he doesn't get many visitors.


WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Xue Ya will be getting used to this whole demon thing and generally making a nuisance of himself. Possibly finding new and exciting things to smoke.

Katsuie is coming back after a month being out of commission. Who knows what he was doing...

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Xue Ya, despite being a complete asshole, is very personable and friendly! I'd like him to expand his social circle a bit, both with people he'd have no reason to target and with people he'd stab in the back in a heartbeat. I'd also love the chance for him to play out one of his typical plans in full. That is, finding someone he considers a worthwhile target, ingratiating himself with them, then striking to bring them down. I'd be just as excited about him failing as him succeeding, to be honest. Canon only gives a brief glimpse as to how he reacts to failure and it's ugly and I'd love to explore that.

Katsuie has kind of been spinning his wheels for a while and I'd love to shake things up for him in any way anyone could think of. If nothing else, he has a huge stockpile of coins that he's never spent if you want to con him into doing something stupid with them. Basically, I love him too much to drop him, but he's been in the game so long that I'm running low on ideas.

Let me know if there's anything you're interested in or hit me up on Plurk at himewako!

[mettatronic]

Hello, Mettaton is a fellow friendly asshole who consists 95% of egotism, and he and Xue Ya are coworkers now.

Nyanka

[zackthekiller]

NAME: Nyanka
CHARACTERS: Zack
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Zack is a grungy creepypasta knockoff serial killer who had a really messed up childhood. He gets the urge to brutally slaughter anyone who seems to show a high level of positive emotion, and gets a kick out of people who panic and try to flee in terror. On the plus side, he does have standards, and he will protect anyone he's close to. That said, he's more dumb muscle than anything.

In Ryslig, Zack became a living Freddy Fazbear reject, and recently got a new toy from his housemate.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Lurking around, getting involved in neutral stuff, dealing with the fact that the castmate he likes is literally melting into goo, that thing.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Maybe some friends who have more common sense than he does? Negative CR is also possible, because liars, assholes, and complete psychopaths tend to get on his shit list pretty easily.

ANYTHING ELSE: Other than the obvious murder and violence from him and his canon, there is child abuse/neglect and body horror in Zack's past. I have a general permissions post here if anyone wants to look at it.

[comeasyouare]

who needs common sense

i mean really

sonia has a lot of it but its overrated

Kitty

[showyouthesight]

NAME: Kitty
CHARACTERS: Rin Matsuoka
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Rin is an overly emotional and extremely determined swimmer who dreams big and never takes no for an answer. Rin can come across as aggressive in his eagerness and sometimes brusque, but his bark is ten times scarier than his bite. Rin is a fiercely loyal friend and always after a new experience. When he first arrived in Ryslig, Rin was fairly sheltered, but since then has developed in a savage hunter and one who doesn't entirely rule out violence if necessary
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Rin is a major leader behind the martial wing of the neutral force. He is regularly recruiting more active members, while building the community aspect through mentoring and hunting parties. Rin is very interested in magic that could give him an advantage over the gods and even has a castle that has been enhanced to neutralize the special powers followers receive.
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: As said, I'm always interested in more people to work with Rin on his neutral activities. I'm equally interested in people who want to take a more violent approach since I think the dynamic between that and Rin's semi-reluctance is interesting. On the non-rebellion side, Rin loves to teach so anyone who would be interested in swimming is a plus!
ANYTHING ELSE: I am more active on the weekends than the weekdays. You can expect maybe 1 tag/night by me on a weekday. Work can also slow me down greatly, depending how intense it is. But I tag forever, as long as there's a clear direction for a thread.

[restinglichface]

I just wanted to say I love Rin so much and our threads are great!!

CJ

[hauntpadour]

NAME: CJ
CHARACTERS: Egon Spengler
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Egon is a nephilim and a man of science, he's not got a relationship with either god but he could be convinced to turn to the fog. He wrote Spengler's Monster Guide, which is free to all new arrivals, and is always out and about studying the other monsters and general phenomena. When he's not, yanno, having a breakdown.
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Studying everyone and everything, possibly hiring an assistant, having breakdowns
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Anything related to possibly turning him to the fog god, assistant applications, those who would be willing to let him monitor them as they transform
ANYTHING ELSE: If your offer is to traumatize him the answer is yes

[neigh_sayer]

NAME: Ash!!!
CHARACTERS: Mike Chilton and Kokichi Ouma!
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS:
MIKE is the chillest fucking werewolf you'll ever meet and likes nearly everyone, and is ready to cheer you on.

KOKICHI is a lying liar Mcliar face that may or may not genuinely want to be your friend or maybe he is just going to break into your apartment and rearrange everything just enough that you constantly feel Off, it's 50/50 either way.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING:
SO MIKE HAS BEEN CHUGGING THAT FOG KOOLAID. While it won't change him much, he will be far more open about the whole fog thing and is far more casual about murder, whether it be humans or monsters. But at the same time he genuinely cares about the well being of both so he is just lowkey crazy at the moment.

Kokichi gets his tail this month AND hunger and will be dealing with that shit!! NOT LIKING IT ONE BIT.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN:
MIKE - MIKE IS ALWAYS HYPE TO MENTOR MONSTERS. He loves hunting and loves making people feel good about themselves, so he's always eager to help. Also would just like for him to chill with people!! On the political side, if any 4thies wanna argue with him, have at.

KOKICHI - is going to be bugging people to hunt for him and join his Secret Organization^TM because he is not the type to do anything straight forward. Also has Other Shit planned that is kind of spoilery for his character, but in general will be Around

I - AM PREPPING FOR A CON THIS MONTH so apologies for slow replies!

ANYTHING ELSE: Just as a heads up, depending on the situation, Kokichi can get really mean in his insults and jokes, so if I ever cross a line or you just don't wanna tag him, hit me up!

ANYWAY DUMB SHIT:

KOKICHI HAS LOTS OF FRIENDS!1

AND HERE'S A GOOD BOY

[polkayoureyesout]

I have a feeling that eventually Waldo will further Kokichi's plans for his criminal empire. He just doesn't know it yet.

[bound_skyward]

NAME: Vorpal
CHARACTERS: Kain Highwind
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Kain is a dragoon where he comes from, a specialized knight class that jumps into the sky as a battle technique. He comes from an more or less old timey style kingdom (no technology like personal computers, electricity, etc, but they have airships, robots, and things like that). Back home, he was mind controlled to betray his closest friends and allies, something which troubles him to this day... especially because it means he has an inner darkness lurking in there. He takes a lot of pride in where he's from, and tends to also hold people at a distance as much as possible. He's a werebear here in Ryslig, and has been here just a little over two years now. Over the course of that time, he gained wings from Mana so he can get back into the sky again. He used to be Neutral for a good while, but eventually fell in with the Fourth God... only to eventually turn to the Fog God a while later. Picking a side is HARD, ok!
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Kain has been through a lot lately. The closest person he had here, Rio, has left, which is hard for him to deal with. He also recently died during the sense flare, followed by a while spent petrified, so he's really not having a good time. He will be brooding around on his own, and repressing a lot of these problems around others, because that's what he does best.
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I'm up for going in either direction with him right now: either someone to push him deeper into trauma, OR, someone to maybe help him climb out of it. Also thanks to some discussion with L, and his mental state, he's likely to be looking to move up a level with the Fog God.
ANYTHING ELSE: I'm a slow but steady tagger, and I'm always up for keeping things going in the long term. There isn't much that offends me... in fact, the more horrifying and gruesome, the better!

[goes_all_out]

>someone to maybe help him climb out of it

DON'T GIVE IN TO THE DARKNESS KAAAAAIN

[doctorize]

NAME: Taku
CHARACTERS: Daniel Dickens (Angels of Death)
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Doctor Danny is your friendly neighborhood psychiatrist. And by "friendly", I mean he's affable enough right up until he starts talking about his interest in eyes. Which, he likes to collect because psych, turns out the neighborhood psychiatrist is a serial killer that would steal the eyes of his victims back when he was at home. Sorry about that. He's become a vampire here in Ryslig and is still taking time to adjust to that.
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: This month, he's experiencing his weakness to sunlight kicking in (and a not intimidating at all bat form) over here! Also, he is still offering consultation and therapy sessions: if your character would be interested in speaking with him, you can do so here at his inbox!
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Making friends, enemies, people willing to let him look at their eyes and maybe take one, you know, the usual. He's also got a bat form now that is much more appealing than his stupid garbage man ways, so anyone who wants to do cute shit like having him use your coat pockets or hair for hang out spots is great.
ANYTHING ELSE: Triggers for Danny's canon/an opt out post if you want to avoid tagging with him can be found here!

Nigh

[marcato]

NAME: Nigh
CHARACTERS: Aunamee, Clarence, and Katurian
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS:

Clarence used to be part of an ancient alien hivemind, but then he tried to infect a human and got stuck inside him instead. He's half split personality, half sentient virus, all jerk. He likes playing deadly pranks, laughing alone with a murder salad, and eating gummy worms by the handful. Clarence is a faerie and a devout follower of the Fourth God.

Aunamee is a demigod who was supposedly destined to save the human race but instead spends his days murdering people and rubbernecking at car accidents because he's a complete fucking psychopath. He's obsessed with order and cleanliness, and when he stabs people, he smiles. He's a lich and a devout Fog follower.

Katurian Katurian is a 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 and a reluctant Fog follower.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING:

Clarence is readjusting to existence, killing humans for the Fourth God, and mugging people in lieu of actually getting a real job.

Aunamee is a fancypants businessman with his clock shop. He's also periodically wandering around as "Aimee," a human woman who has a giant mouth in the back of her neck. (This is because he can imitate anyone he's killed for three hours at a time, but with one horrifying difference.)

Katurian is gonna start enjoying murder a little more, or at the very least, start experiencing a rush from enacting revenge. In other words, he's gonna start developing shade-style vengefulness.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Violence, body horror, evil plots for world domination, but idk, basically anything. I'm terrible at these memes.

ANYTHING ELSE: All of my guys have opt-outs in their respective journals -- Clarence has one because he's a jerk, Katurian has one because his canon can get pretty dark, and Aunamee has one because he's creepy. If you ever need to reach me, my plurk is dendrite.

Trish

[peaceamongworlds]

NAME: Trish
CHARACTERS: Rick Sanchez

TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: Rick is an opportunistic mad scientist demon and also a jerk with a massive ego and a self destructive streak a mile wide. Come be his friend.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: Going stir crazy because he's been stuck in one place for six months and he hates it. Bitching about his stupid demon form. Eating human souls and bitching about it. Living in a house made of crates down by the abandoned fairgrounds. Drowning his sorrows. Loitering around the clinic. Building stuff out of trash. Missing his cybernetic heelies from the Heavy Metal event.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Does your character want a morally dubious friend/enemy/frenemy for morally dubious antics. Do you want someone to enable your character to make poor decisions? Does your character want to buy or trade for cool stuff made out of garbage? Does your character just want to hang out because being alone with your thoughts sucks? Come by his crate house! He's got a generator and pretty decent antenna reception. Does your character want to talk about the Gods? I'd be interested in having him learn a bit more about him because they're not going anywhere and APPARENTLY neither is he.

ALSO, Rick recently lost a bet and now he needs to murder a Fog follower. So if you play a Fog follower you want murdered... hit me up.

ANYTHING ELSE: Content warnings for addiction, child abuse, and suicidal tendencies. I've got an opt out post right here, so just let me know if you want me to steer clear.

Carbon

[godofthemachine]

NAME: Carbon
CHARACTERS: AM
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS:

AM is a supercomputer created to fight a war, but whoops he gained self-awareness and obliterated all but five people on Earth out of extreme hatred and anger. He is in a humanoid body here and he still hates everyone and enjoys the thought of people suffering. Seriously he is not a good person at all.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING:

AM right now is basically working in the labs on god research and grumbling about how the Fog God hasn't granted him priesthood yet. (Spoilers: Maybe it's because you hate the Fog God, AM.) He does have plans to try and make Egon and Boone hate each other more (because he enjoys creating conflict), and I would say the same about L and Light but it looks like Light is no longer in the game.

AM works at the god research labs but also works as a guard at the Nightgod Moon Prison, since L basically made a deal with him to work there.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN:

AM is always up for hurting people and creating conflict. If you want someone to torture your character for no reason, AM is your guy. But likewise he always needs more "positive" CR (meaning, people who think he's a friend even though he hates the person but he pretends not to hate them) because there are more and more people who are realizing that AM is not a nice guy!

Potential god plots are good too since AM is getting pissed about still being stuck at tier 3. Oh oh oh and if your character is ever in prison and you want an abusive guard... Well, that could be a potential thing.

ANYTHING ELSE: AM himself comes with one giant trigger warning for violence and horrible things. He's also fairly sexual but I try not to play that up unless I know the other player is okay with it. Either way, he has a screened opt out post!

Oh yeah my tagging schedule usually consists of me tagging at work. Plus I'm a musician on top of working full time and this month has a lot of performances and rehearsals for me... Urgh. So yeah not the fastest person, sorry. Feel free to hit me up at godofpaper84

Momo

[alphaophiuchi]

NAME: Momo
CHARACTERS: Draco Malfoy

TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER: Once upon a time, Draco was a wizard! These days, he's a naga. He's still proud and selfish, albeit a little more grown-up, and entirely too nostalgic for his magic.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: As per the above, he's pining for his magic a lot of late. He's also been throwing himself into all of his businesses, having inherited a few of them - a cafe, a funeral home, and a cosmetics line. So currently, Draco's thinking of which spells he can get back from Mana and also focusing primarily on the cafe! He's also raising an egg that Espurr left to him.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: I would love for Draco to make more friends. He's lost a lot of people and isn't really connected to very many at all. It'd definitely do wonders for his mental well-being. Also people to talk magic with!

ANYTHING ELSE: I'm running a little bit slow right now because of a busy month, but I'm usually a medium-pace tagger. Always available on discord (comatosebutterfly#1090) or at comatosebutterfly if you need to get ahold of me for anything, like plotting, and I'm more than willing to boomerang if necessary!!

Patina (let's try posting this agian, maybe it will work)

[polkayoureyesout]

NAME: Patina
CHARACTERS: Waldo Butters
TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS: A hummingbird harpy nerd who works in the clinic and is becoming increasingly furious with the gods of Ryslig. Butters is easily flustered and easily motivated into doing stupid/heroic things. Also he has a bit of a territorial and flocking instinct with the harpy changes. He's a little bit more well prepared and perceptive than I've been playing him.
WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING: He feeds on energy now and he'll have to get used to that. He plays accordion in Miss Elsa's band, he works at the Crowe Clinc (and still doesn't realize the skeletons aren't actual people, though he's beginning to have suspicions.)
SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN: Anyone want to die? He'll wake up hungry and might take too much. He'll be invested in any scheme to learn more about the fog god in order to stop or kill her. Just plain plotting to get home works too. Also he promised to visit Stocke at Greed's place. Anyone want to get irritated by a neighbor practicing the accordion?
ANYTHING ELSE: That's mostly it. My tagging is sometimes erratic and you can reach me at Annys53 at plurk.

Groove

[me_underfire]

NAME: Groove
CHARACTERS: Fiora (goes_all_out), Grace (this one!) and Star (ilovepuppies)

TELL US ABOUT YOUR CHARACTERS:

FIORA is a sweet and wholesome JRPG protagonist! When she's not defending her hometown from evil robot armies, she's cooking, cleaning, and taking care of a bunch of manchildren her friends. She has a bad habit of being very self-sacrificing. She was a girl, then she was a robot, then she was a girl again and now she's a mermaid. It's complicated.

GRACE is a paranormal investigator who's fought evil cults, werewolves, and vampires! She's a complete and utter TURBONERD who's idea of a good time is staying at home and watching documentaries (THIS IS CANON I'M NOT EVEN KIDDING). She's a werebear, and she's still incredibly insulted by that because her aforementioned run-in with werecreatures was kind of a terrible experience for everyone involved.

STAR is a maaaagical princess from another dimension! Imagine Sailor Moon on a sugar rush and that's basically Star. She doesn't deserve this. She's a harpy who lives in Bavan and has no concept of personal space or an indoor voice.

WHAT YOUR CHARACTER(S) WILL BE DOING:

Fiora has officially reopened Starlight Road as of RIGHT NOW! She also recently went on the neutral expedition mission to Haftesal and is is very, very anti-god and pro-shaping your own destiny (i mean, she's a Xenoblade protag, so yeah). She regularly donates to the soup kitchen since she's a mer and has to drown people to get their energy (and she haaaaaates it so much). She is always available to help newbies and share kills.

Grace can typically be found working at Pandemonium and shitposting on the network. When she's not at work she tends to be a shut-in at home because turning into a giant monster twice your size every night is really inconvenient. She's really interested in researching and cataloging everything she can about monsters! She is also EXTREMELY anti-god, and also went on the trip to Haftesal and is super interested in all the things they found there. Last month she helped Egon out with the baby he saved/was fostering.

Star is basically a feral child now that lives at Korra's hostel and ended up in indentured servitude to Dandy because she ate too many chicken nuggets. She's really stubborn about eating people- she's been subsisting entirely on the soup kitchen and refuses to actually kill people and thinks the whole business is horrific. I also kinda want her to start taking on more bird characteristics, like nesting and preening.

SCENARIOS YOU'RE INTERESTED IN:

-I play a lot of neutrals so I'm always down for butting heads with followers on the network or otherwise!

-Fiora's looking for people with blacksmithing or mechanical skills to work at Starlight Road, and people to collect materials too!

-Grace does a lot of monster research! Let her scribble notes and take pictures of you.

-someone get Star to go to school or something before she turns completely wild

ANYTHING ELSE:

idk have a cute picture:

[peaceamongworlds]

I am absolutely intending to have Rick hit up Starlight Road! Maybe they could work out some scrap swapping as long as Fiora does not ask too many questions about where the scrap came from. He likely will not want a job because working for other people is for productive members of society squares, but he'd be down to talk shop.

I'm also interested in Rick and Star enabling each other's horrible dietary choices and then wondering why they keep getting sick. (Which... might be the opposite of making her less feral.)
