ENABLE ME TIMBERS: OCTOBER 2023

YO HO HO EVERYONE! This is an ATP/EMP post where players can make cast requests for people to app into, or make ads for characters they are considering bringing into the game. It works like any other ATP/EMP, but we do have a few things to note down:

» Invitations are required to reserve and apply! But you can go ahead and post to the ATP/EMP post with a note you need an invite. You can either rely on a current player for help, or you can directly request an invite from the mods.

» We have a 50 player cap, but since this is only our second round and allow the public to request for an invite, we have temporarily upped it to 65 to give more breathing room.

» Players can only app 2 characters at once with a max limit of 3 in game. But since this is an ATP/EMP, feel free to put more if you're having trouble deciding!

» Our Game Info should cover everything you need, from basic premise summary to the nitty gritty details of the game mechanics. If you have any questions, post them there.

» Just want to make it clear that this is not a claims page. While we give priority to whoever is on the Reserve list, we do allow app challenges, and there is no rule against multiple players TDMing the same character. Of course we don't want there to be too much conflict, so everyone please be polite no matter who it is.

» TDM is Friday, October 13th. This TDM will double as our Halloween event, but we will include a traditional "starter prompt" for TDM specific characters. Everything will be carried over as canon!

» Reservations open Wednesday, October 25th.

» Applications open Wednesday, November1st.

» Use the following codes to write up your character or cast ad!

AERITH GAINSBOROUGH

FINAL FANTASY VII

Player: Agatha | hagclub
Invited by: Lae
Preferred Armada: I'm leaning towards Paladins, but Corsairs for her is extremely tempting since I can see her preferring something less structured like... a company... you may say LOL

Most of Aerith's life has been spent beneath some kind of steel ceiling; from captivity in a laboratory to the oppressive expanse of the plate hanging over the Midgar slums, she's never really seen the endless blue sky. You wouldn't guess it after meeting her, though! Aerith is vivacious, spunky, and street-smart, having grown up in the slums. She's a nature-loving free spirit with a rebellious streak that she eagerly indulges in. Her unique experiences have lead her to have strong personal morals that she's unwilling to compromise with, and Aerith always chooses to do right by her and the people she cares about, even at the cost of her own safety. Despite this, she's got a biting sense of humor— she's also not afraid to remind you that she doesn't need to be coddled.

In canon, she makes a living selling flowers she grows herself; some are tended to in a garden at her home, others are from a flowerbed in an abandoned church. Holiness is something of a theme with her, though you may get the impression it's entirely foisted on her. Regardless, Aerith is the party healer who is not afraid to use her magical scepter like a baseball bat. Her close ties to healing, religion, and magic are born from her heritage as the last remaining Cetra in Gaia— she's part magical alien, which makes her of keen interest to a specific power enterprise back home.

In Escordvi, Aerith would be entirely independent for the first time in her life! She'd be able to see the blue sky for real! After the immediate shock, she'd probably struggle getting her sea legs, but as a headstrong nuisance, Aerith would likely get herself in everyone's business anyway. I'd love for other people to affect her and cause her to grow into herself; being sheltered by Shinra all her life in different ways has meant that while she's wildly capable and independent, there's still a lot out in the world she hasn't gotten to do. I'd also love for her to eventually start selling flowers she grows on her own again— who wants to help make a new flowercart...?

Midadol Telamon

Final Fantasy XVI

Player: Ryn | kermitkin
Invited by: Laena
Preferred Armada: Corsair

Midadol, or Mid if you ask her for her preference, is an energetic, enthusiastic and cheery teenager who just so happens to be Cid's adoptive daughter. Just as gifted when it comes to creating, Mid is a student of engineering and is forward thinking in a creative way. She's not interested in her creations being used for war, instead wanting them to improve the lives of others without magic. A little bit of a dreamer, shes not about to let practicalities get in her way, very content to barrel through to see her tasks and dreams to fruition.

Shes one of those energetic social butterflies I'm so prone to playing, so good luck god speed to anyone trying to keep up with her.

In other words, she is going to be a little menace and everyone should watch out. Laena has been relentlessly after my ass so here I am with a little blonde goblin ready to party.

FINAL FANTASY XVI

Can I interest you in apping a Final Fantasy XVI with the best boy? Yes? Fantastic! Because boy, do I have news for you. The cast is full of dramatics and their drama, and who wouldn't want to get in on some of that action? We've got ship stealing, love, betrayal, how the hell do phones work, Dion's permanent headache (someone save this man from the rest of them), fighting because we're bored, TORGAL, and bets on when Clive and Jill will finally hold hands in public. And some good old Eikonic action. It is very serious all the time.

Currently have: Barnabas, Benedikta, Cid, Clive, Jill, Joshua (all Corsairs), and Dion on the Paladin side.
Looking for: Anyone! Everyone! More specifically, we'd love to see Gav, Mid, Jote, Byron, Hugo (do any even exist on dwrp?), Sleipnir, anyone from the hideaway crew...

We've only got 3 slots left in the cast, so get in while it's hot!

If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

MONKEY D. LUFFY

ONE PIECE (LIVE ACTION)

Player: Hibiki | PM
Invited by: Mod Team.
Preferred Armada: Corsair. It would be criminal to not have the self-proclaimed soon to be King of the pirates as a corsair.

Luffy is a young pirate captain who has the energy of a positive, optimistic, dream chasing feral gremlin. Ever since he was a child he knew he wanted to be a pirate, would hang out with pirates and never wavered in that. He's on his quest to get to the Grand Line in order to find the One Piece, a treasure that will help him become King of the Pirates. He's enthusiastic about everything, will always encourage people to chase their dreams and thinks being a pirate is the best thing in the world. On paper he's a terrible pirate if the standard definition is anything to go by, but don't tell him that.

His own world is full of pirates, so the concept of ships and looking for treasure isn't something new. Luffy may be a little put out by the fact his crew and friends aren't here but there's a lot going on so he'll be able to manage. Luffy is capable of looking after himself, somehow managing to get through things by sheer fluke or dumb luck. He's also decent at fighting due to his unique physiology where he's made out of rubber thanks to him eating a devil fruit. The downside is salt water renders him immobile and weak, not great when out on the ocean.

Luffy is the kind to be urging everyone on to do their best, to find their treasures, and will probably be up in a lot of people's business too. But he means well and will fight to the death for anyone who is considered good by him. Oh also has a thing for meat, so if he does arrive a warning will need to go out letting the world know of an approaching famine on legs.

FINAL FANTASY X(-2)

Once upon a time, a land had a great shadow of death cast over it. Everyone's lives were touched by grief and loss, and hope only existed in fleeting moments. Then a brave young woman with a touch of naivete, a quirky athlete way out of his depth, a jaded yet cool dude on a mission, and the people who loved the young woman the most banded together to change all that.

Two years later, the world was much better. But people are still people, dealing with the trials and tribulations of a brand new day. There are mysteries to solve, there's life to celebrate, and...well, the old wounds still linger. But they'll figure it out!

The current cast is just Rikku and she's trying her best with the Corsairs! Most of her old allies would probably make better Paladins, so that could be a fun conflict...basically she just misses teasing the people she loves.

GRANBLUE FANTASY

The giant mobage game that's about to "re-release" it's fighting game and an upcoming RPG, Re:Link—

It's only Eustace right now as a Corsair, but I would love to see anyone else from the game, especially Society members: Ilsa, Beatrix, Zeta, Vaseraga, Cassius, Isaac. Gran or Djeeta would also be fun (I think we can manage both given canon alternate universes??), and Lyria would be adorable as well! Vyrn, too. But as much as I'm hard pitching for fellow Society members, really anyone to play off cross-game interactions would be fun!

This setting would be really fun for GBF characters since it's similar to their world—just with actual water instead of ships in the air. All the fun grand adventuring, getting into trouble, dealing with trouble— Just a lot of opportunities especially for cross-cr!

YUFFIE KISARAGI

FINAL FANTASY VII: INTERGRADE

Player: Xae | Tsukeru
Invited by: I live here (but Lae)
Preferred Armada: Paladin

Yuffie is a young ninja who enjoys her materia a little too much. She will be coming in not knowing the rest of her cast yet, except for Zack - that one guy whom she trolled. Only recognize Tifa as being part of the splinter Avalanche cell. Grew up in a war-torn Wutai, doesn't like to talk about her dad, fresh off Sonon's death and the fall of Plate 7. Seeking out treasure is something she likes to do, so yes, she will be signing up for that as fast as possible.

In Escordvi, I'm planning on having her bring in one of the very first chocobos! Time to introduce them to the world and all its people. She is also bringing in Ramuh summon materia, so she can harass an old man (Lae enabled me). Also, some other materia that should be fun to play with and switch around with the rest of the cast, please throw her around with Ninja Cannonball. Please feel free to play with OG game and Kingdom Hearts knowledge about Yuffie, I love confusion and shenanigans.

[activatingcombatmode]

I would LOVE to see more Final Fantasy X - Yuna in particular so she can summon the FFXVI cast by accident-! Or Wakka, Tidus, Lulu, Auron! Anyone!

[inventuring]

Please excuse the lack of fun icons mine are in a document back home and I am stuck at work but


YESSSSS don't mind me reading any logs i can get my grubby hands on

[activatingcombatmode]

THE GIRL

punch zack in the guts and run

[inventuring]

Is Clive still gonna be her errand boy in game it's only fair.

[materiahunting]

Luffy! I have not seen or watched the animanga, but I loved the live action and am excited to see him. He's a great choice for the game, and please harass all of my girls - even if two of them will be on the Paladin side.

My Corsair is... well, she's not easy to get along with, but I want this to happen anyway.

[inventuring]

Okay listen I am here to be enabled myself but I cannot get over the idea of Luffy and Mid CR because it would be a thing of absolute beauty. The energy of it makes me laugh already.

[heyfoxylady]

THE BAD GUY!

Listen, listen...










She will.
