CR WORKSHIP: NOVEMBER 2023

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.

Maria Renard | Castlevania: Nocturne | Corsair

[summonbeasts]

PLAYER INFO

Player: Starfighter
Contact: goodluckstarfighter

CHARACTER INFO

Character: Maria Renard
Canon: Post Season One
Armada: Corsair

About:
Basic Info + this Wiki.

Maria is the sixteen year old daughter of former Speaker Tera and the Abbot of the church in Machecoul, Emmanuel. Emmanuel also turns out to be a Forgemaster (though of a different kind than Isaac and Hector in the original series).

Growing up in France during the very beginnings of the French Revolution Maria wholeheartedly embraces the revolution itself. She's seen the harsh effects the greed and lavish lifestyles of both the aristocracy and the Church have had upon the peasantry. She holds no love for the Church so don't be surprised if you hear her talking very disparagingly about it. She believes in personal freedom above everything else and is extremely headstrong and passionate about it.

Abilities:
* Swordsmanship Skills. Maria is pretty good with a rapier as well as a dagger! She shows little hesitance in putting her blade through vampire's hands or even faces.
* Summoning. Maria is a witch whose abilities are still developing. At present in canon she can typically summons three of the four Celestial Guardians of the Chinese Zodiac -- Byakko (the white tiger), Suzaku (the vermillion bird) and Genbu (the black tortoise). Here in Escordvi her summoned familiar will be different aside from the birds she can create with magical energy. She typically summons these familiars via portals.

* Escordvi Abilities. I sort of wanted to pay homage to her mother Tera by giving her either Fire or Ice abilities. Think somewhere along the lines of what Sypha had in the first series since Maria's mother was also a Speaker. Naturally Maria's won't be quite as powerful but it's a good starting point. I'm leaning towards Fire if only because it suits Maria's own fiery temperament, haha.

PLANS

General:
I sort of want Maria to get the chance to do normal teenager stuff. She's been leading secretive revolutionary meetings and fighting vampires, she hasn't had time for downtime things really. Maybe see her try to lead something here as well? Oh and learning from other magic users!

MANTA Board: FIRST OFF, Claws & Companions is a yes from me. Pretty much everything in General (Spellbound Circuitry, Thinking with Portals, Leap of Faith), in particular A Healing Mixup as well. I'm also keenly interested in Gallow's Gambit.
Event: I'm definitely topleveling to the open log. No real plans just yet, open to them!

CR Dreams: Oh gosh ... people who will help her process her mother's "death", people who will learn their Escordvi magic as well as other magic alongside her. Vampires to teach her not all vampires are bad? Friends her own age! Maybe crushes, idk? I'm just looking forward to how she grows!

Etc.:

[minorinpain]

I've already put down Nappa for a cat myself in Claws & Companions myself, perhaps they could end up training their cats together? I really enjoyed their TDM thread (also up for continuing that if you want to) and Maria made a good showing so that Nappa will remember her.

[summonbeasts]

Oooh, then come by and help her train her cat! I'll probably be winding down my TDM tags so I can focus on game tags for the month so feel free to tag my catchall or drop a link to your toplevel or whatnot here!

Nappa is just a grumpier version of Richter tbqh. (Okay maybe not.)

[minorinpain]

Excellent! Will hit you up momentarily.

Definitely not. He's a grumpier and sexier version of Richter


Ladies.

[subigito]

Wouldn't it be delightful if a vampire and a vampire hunter had to help each other out for gallows gambit because I think so

[summonbeasts]

I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING, haha. You expect her to go around trusting a vampire to get her out of a pickle like this?

I've thrown up a catchall log with a gallows prompt so feel free to hit it up. If that doesn't work I'd be happy to tag anything you're putting up.

[vermilloci]

hey there!! I’m Jade and I play Rem here. I just got done watching Nocture and Maria is legit the best. Would be absolutely rad if these two could meet and/or do a manta thing together. Was eyeing spellbound circuitry in particular!

I’m drinksteapots on plurk. Okay to friend you?

[summonbeasts]

Yes! Please, she needs to meet more people and make friends.

You're definitely welcome to add me! And feel free to tag my catchall log if I don't get to yours first. <3

[vermilloci]

omigosh when i read the cat prompt, my brain immediately went to



lol will tag soon!

[summonbeasts]

I'm not saying that's instantly where my mind went to when Whiteclaw was the last white cat left but ... that's exactly where it went.

[afflatusexarch]

can i continue to offer catte?

[summonbeasts]

Please continue to offer catte. He was nice and calm and Maria liked that, haha. I have a catchall log you're welcome to hit up or feel free to link me to anything you've got to tag into!

[afflatusexarch]

i CAN DO THAT OR i ALSO happen to have a log for the month dsfasdfasd

Maria and Raha will get along, I think. :/a Well hopefully Grandpa cat does like spirited children

[desirestruth]

Hello I have here this dhampir who also has picked up a cat for claws and companions and wants to relearn her healing magic, would Maria like this grandma-shaped friend.

[summonbeasts]

True story, when I noticed your app I was determined to come bug you if we both got in, haha. They introduced Alucard right at the end of season one so she has zero experience with dhampirs just yet.

[desirestruth]

So fun facts Naeva's original dnd character version was in fact riffing off alucard so we have, in fact, come full circle.

What I'm saying is I'm very excited. :D

[crystalrepose]

late with Starbucks meme

Hi there! I'm Blueraven and I've been enjoying Miriam and Maria on the TDM, and would like to continue it if you do! I feel like they had a lot in common, even if Bloodstained wasn't literally just a Castlevania game with one serial number filed off haha

[summonbeasts]

I'm down for continuing that or going onto something new on her catchall.

[crystalrepose]

Would you be okay with handwaving the TDM thread? Maybe others helped them break the tombstone relic and they exchanged names after the constant zombie horde event ended, haha.

I'll hit up your catchall soon, as well!

[summonbeasts]

That sounds like the perfect way to end it. At some point maybe the inscription on it will come up again, who knows.
