CR WORKSHIP: MAY 2024

Our CR Meme CR Workship is where players can drop all the cool info for their characters and try to plot with others to continue existing or create new CR. Be sure to look over the MANTA Board as well as current events if you'd like to include them in your post.

We also include a designated toplevel for Crew Recruitment where players can make OOC ad posts for others to either join or request to join or make a crew. This is all for OOC coordination, so you'll have to figure out how it works ICly.

If you have multiple characters, make an individual toplevel for yourself with your player info and comment to it with each character separately.

IF YOU HAVE MULTIPLE CHARACTERS, create your own toplevel and comment with each character separately to it. Include your name in the subject line. Although not specifically included, you are more than welcome to write up a greeting message along with the form!

Miriam | Bloodstained: RotN | Paladin

[crystalrepose]

PLAYER INFO

Player: Blueraven
Contact: blueraven

CHARACTER INFO

Character: Miriam
Canon: Bloodstained: RotN, post-game
Armada: Paladin

About: Application!
Miriam's a young woman who's seen and been through some shit, but hasn't lost her kindness or sense of justice. Sure, she might be full of demonic rocks, but she's using that power to do good things. She wants to be helpful and prove that she's still human, let her be helpful!!

Those roses and petals on her aren't tattoos; they're part of a cursed crystal that lets Miriam use said phenomenal demonic power, but will eventually turn her into a crystal statue and kill her, or corrupt her mind and delete her sense of self and free will. Either or. The curse's spread is currently halted, but using her power too much or absorbing too many Shards (fragments of a demon's power) at once could cause it to start advancing again. So Miriam's in a constant balancing act of needing to use her powers to best help others but not so much that she crystalizes. No pressure.

Abilities: For canon ones, she's got all the ridiculously OP abilities of an endgame Castlevania protagonist—which she's usually fairly mindful about using, with such severe consequences for their overuse. She can do so much shit, though.

PLANS

General: Though she's still on rather chilly terms with the Paladins' leadership, Miriam's helpful nature tends to lead her to volunteering herself everywhere, which would be an easy way for her to meet people. Someone to help remind her to take a break occasionally would also be welcome.

Miriam has also joined the Avalanche crew recently! She'd like to get to know the others better.

MANTA Board: As always, Miriam's available to protect squishier or noncombatant characters if they need to go someone dangerous. She has magic and a Cool Sword.

Event: I'll be putting a TL up on the Garuda event post, and tagging out on the open log.

For the former, while fighting off an Egis she'll likely absorb a Shard (tl;dr a fragment of power), which is an, uh, dramatic process where a giant crystal spike stabs her in the chest. But it's fine, It Definitely Doesn't Hurt. I'll be keeping that in a separate prompt or bringing it up in other threads by request, since it's not for everyone and probably going to raise some questions.

For the event log, Miriam will mostly be helping repair and recovery and thus could still plausibly end up anywhere, including the Mermaid AU Pearlhaven. She'll be a fancy crystal shark.

CR Dreams: Yes.

Actual answer: I'd love for her to make deep enough connections with people she can actually address the all the issues she's left unaddressed, from the deaths of her friends to her curse and the existential humanity questions it reflects.

For less serious matters, Miriam also hasn't used her tattoo magic much, so anyone who can offer tutelage there would be someone she'd like to talk to.

Re: Miriam | Bloodstained: RotN | Paladin

what kind of tattoo did Miriam pick?

[crystalrepose]

It's some flying birds! Something about symbolism and being able to choose things herself for once. I'd intended for her to learn shielding or some sort of protection magic with it, since Miriam has plenty of offensive magic of her own already.

[yuezun]

very cool!

I'm not top leveling in the event either but I do have a top level on the gaurda event, if you're up for something?

[crystalrepose]

Sure thing! I'll hit that up soon hopefully.
