<< cr workship: march 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.

Roxas | Kingdom Hearts | Paladin
Contact:
CHARACTER INFO
Canon: Kingdom Hearts; Post KH3
Armada: Paladin
About: Roxas is the Nobody of series protagonist Sora. Or former Nobody, it gets a bit weird. Regardless, he's recently gained a body of his own and was all set to start living his life properly as a normal kid and ended up here instead. He's a little less than thrilled at having his plans messed with but you do what you gotta, even if that means dealing with seasickness and the big scary ocean.
Roxas himself is a pretty easy going kid. He's very much a teenager and doesn't trust super easily. He's fairly cautious, unless you manage to rile his temper up. But it's also pretty easy to break through that veneer and reveal the good kid underneath.
Abilities: Roxas can wield two keyblades and has access to your classic FF/KH magic set, with fire, ice, wind, thunder and cure. He tends to rely on those rather than any tattoo granted abilities.
PLANS
-He's part of a crew now and is still figuring that out. It's the first time he's really chosen something like this and it is. Very new to him.
-Really just looking to expand his horizons and give him the chance to really start living a life. He hasn't had much of a chance up until now.
Event: There might be a small top-level but beyond that I'm not going to be doing too much. Roxas is definitely going to be more honest during the month so if you have any questions you want to ask, now would be the time!
He does have a Top Level at the Plus Ultra Crew log and that's probably the best place to find him for the month.
CR Dreams: Friends, pals, mentors! Really all sorts of CR is welcome with Roxas!
Etc.: I am on a low-key hiatus this month so I'm trying not to do too much, and will also be kind of slow throughout the month. But Roxas will be around! Thank you for your patience.
Darin Altway | Original Character | Corsair
Contact:
CHARACTER INFO
Canon: Original Character | Post meeting his brother again
Armada: Corsair
About: Darin is a big, loud, excitable, somewhat over-zealous, muscly blacksmith with a heart of gold despite his reluctance to be more than just a blacksmith. He's got abilities that he tries his best to hide; specifically super strength and resilience. He will likely be failing at this a lot and it is encouraged to needle him about it if you're interested in unlocking his tragic backstory. He's with the corsairs and, while he hates pirates, may or may not try and sabotage any efforts made by said pirates right under their nose if it means people could get hurt.
Abilities: Darin has super strength and resilience thanks to his demonic bloodline that he honestly hates. He's spent his life hiding these abilities because of being branded 'cursed' and 'a monster' by pretty much everyone he met. He also has transmutation magic but he doesn't even know about it yet and likely won't for a very long time. He's definitely interested in getting a tattoo that would allow him to work with metal, but he might need some convincing.
PLANS
CR Dreams: I'm good for all kinds of CR so long as both parties get something out of it. I'd love a villain to be a big damn hero against but I'm also here for Darin to be put through his physical and emotional paces. To me, the only bad CR is CR that both players don't enjoy.
Etc.: Nah man let me at this game I'm ready.
Crowley | Good Omens (tv) | Corsair
Contact:
CHARACTER INFO
Canon: Post pandemic depression-nap, pre-S2 and all that entails
Armada: Corsair
About: Crowley was a cheery little angel once, who happily made stars and nebulae. Then he fell in with a bad crowd, and fell further into Hell on account of his tendency to incessantly ask questions and be really fucking annoying.
He's still very much the latter, just marginally more Evil about it.
Abilities: Demonic miracles, blessings, bizarre and metaphysical anatomy, a weakness to holy/sacred things etc. Since there's so much variety in what angels and demons are capable of, refer to the app for more detail and his permission post for any opt-ins.
I'd love to have his multitude of weaknesses exploited, and for his powers to come in handy in tight corners while Crowley plays it off as mere luck, because he's a little shit like that.
PLANS
He misses his car and Aziraphale's bookshop, but damn if he isn't delighted to be free from the influences of Heaven and Hell.
MANTA Board: oh god, are you kidding me, he's going to so be making and selling bootleg Dragon Heat, it will be terrible. He will also def be doing 2 truths and a lie and
threateninggrowing undersea pineapples. They will be the, juiciest, most luscious, sweetest pineapples that ever grew if they know what's good for them.Event: Crowley is very curious so of course he's going to investigate the island, and become insufferably optimistic about everything. I'm so sorry.
CR Dreams: /Grabby hands all of it please. Friends, enemies, frienemies, I love any and all CR. Crowley is very easy to bounce around, but he's also capable of being very grating so it's not hard for him to get negative CR (+ the whole demon thing).

AZIRAPHALE | GOOD OMENS | PALADIN
Contact: DM or
CHARACTER INFO
Canon: Good Omens (TV w/ supplemental knowledge from book), post season 1.
Armada: Paladin
About:
Old, old, old. Aziraphale was created millions of years before the Earth and happened to be the very first angel stationed on it. He was the original guardian the Eden, the angel who armed Adam and Eve with his holy sword after they'd been kicked from the garden. The original voice of goodness and holiness!
. . . Except he's kind of trash at being an angel.
Aziraphale has, by all accounts, gone native and grown to appreciate life on Earth far more than he ever did life in Heaven. He likes humans, likes human things (especially the food), and spending his days enjoying those human things with his best friend: Crowley.
Generally, he's fairly polite and pleasant. Easy to get along with.
Abilities: loose overview & sensing permission post — please fill it out if there is anything to sense about your character!
( due to his age, aziraphale tends to often forget he has about 80% of his abilities until something is inconveniencing him. )
PLANS
CR Dreams: Everything, everything, everything. I would love for Aziraphale to make some friends, find some people to butt heads with, and maybe even be a little maternal to someone. He'd especially be interested in making friends and/or chatting with other supernatural beings or otherwise long-lived beings.
Etc.:
the bentley is their child. i'm not taking questions about it.

Lloyd Irving | Tales of Symphonia | Paladin
Contact:
CHARACTER INFO
Canon: Tales of Symphonia, right after Yuan wakes him up in Altessa's house but before he gets outside for the giant reveal scene
Armada: Paladin
About: An unwavering idealist. Lloyd wants a world where everyone can live full lives in peace without discrimination or sacrifice. He's a great dual swordsman and battle tactician. He's also a terrible student and complete idiot with the attention span of a puppy. On that note, he's also got his "dog" Noishe here. Lloyd says he's a dog, at least.
Abilities: At this point, just his techs for swordfighting. Not sure what else I may or may not do.
PLANS
MANTA Board: Eyeing Two Truths and Lie, Pineapples, and/or Shark Bait.
Event: I have a general interest at the moment but I think I'm still too new to be sure of what I'd actually do fff...
CR Dreams: Friends, and Lloyd is a very good one to have. Rivals and/or frenemies. Crewmates/Teammates, which he's decent at, hope you don't mind him complaining sometimes. He may look into building his own boat and therefore crew at some point down the line. Not going to push that too much as he gets started though.
Etc.:
DEHYA | GENSHIN IMPACT | CORSAIR
Contact:
CHARACTER INFO
Canon: Dehya (after seeing the Traveler off in the ACT 4 prologue)
Armada: Corsair
About: I am copying from her app: Dehya wouldn't call herself a hero like the stories her father told, but her personality embodies the righteous bravery and kindness that makes them. Bold, brave, noble, sharp-minded. Dehya's a good natured and good humored woman who balances hard work with hard play. She doesn't let hardship or obstacles get her down, but she's conscientious of their existence and the inequality layered in them. Her sense of justice is strong and she believes in doing the right thing by her life. She doesn't seek to lord her sense of righteousness over others, just stand strong in her own convictions.
Abilities: Her abilities are basically Playing With Fire. No immediate plans for powerups but if you need someone who can punch with a literal flaming fist, she's your girl.
PLANS
MANTA Board: I think having her get involved in Belle Of The Brawl completely unintentionally because she thinks someone's in trouble in a real barfight would be hilarious. Otherwise, she can team up for some bounties!
Event: Dehya will probably be going through a very disorienting alternation between both air effects after deciding to check out the new island because that went okay the first time, dragon kidnapping's aside. Might be important, might need help, might be... a bunch of crabs?
Anyway, I'm particularly interested in the series of challenges, relic hunting, and she's a bit new to have anything besides temporary friendly competition with any paladins but that can always change.
CR Dreams: Oh god I just got here I'm new I'll take anything.

Sherlock Holmes | Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened (2023) | Paladin
Contact:
CHARACTER INFO
Canon: post game
Armada: Paladin
About: Sherlock is a 23 year old Victorian still very much learning how to be a consulting detective. He's more emotional than the average Holmes and is. trying. his. best. He hasn't gone on any of the cases he's known for yet. His first adventure with John Watson is chasing a Cthulhu cult across the world. He also got genre shifted from a detective mystery game to a detective horror game. It's rough. He has trouble sleeping because he has nightmares of drowning in the Abyss and Cthulhu because he saw things no human can understand. He also has trouble knowing what is reality because of said horrors and from a childhood with an imaginary friend/tupla named Jon(athan, not John Watson) from age 6 to 21 as a mental/emotional trauma defense.
Sherlock's application: cw: for child abuse, medical malpractice, and mental illness topics
Abilities:
- Normal Human
- Marksmanship with a pistol
- Consulting Detective: but with shaken confidence
- Violin
- Acting and disguise
- Sketching
- Weakened mental fortitude: Sherlock is more susceptible to mental/emotional based powers or suggestion due previous detachments from reality and now from Cthulhu influences which have revealed to him glimpses beyond what humans normally perceive. While that could be a liability, it's also a chance for outside entities to possess or speak through him for a short bit and cause his eyes to go eerily pale and clouded. (Note for potential RP shenanigans more than it being an actual power/ability Sherlock can consciously use.)
No tattoo yet - he has too much cultist trauma to even think about it
PLANS
Long term goals: get this boy some self confidence, self worth, and finding himself again, put him on the path to becoming his own version of Sherlock Holmes rather than someone who feels like he's failing at every turn
MANTA Board:
- Two Truths and a Lie
- Paladin: Supply Side Logic (maybe, not 100% sure)
- Paladin: Stroking the Haft
Event: Will probably top level and tag around regardless of what the event it
CR Dreams:
- Friends who like him not because he's Sherlock Holmes consulting detective but Sherlock Holmes the young man
- People with who he can learn how to live instead of survive
- Musicians, scientists
- He can be a target to tease or help because as smart as he is, he is naive in other areas
Pinning over a close someone is a Holmes Family Trait- Has your character ever looked at someone, saw a mess, and went for the adoption papers? Adopt him
- Anyone with mental/emotional powers can have some fun with Sherlock, and I'm happy to provide information for shenanigans
Etc.: In Sherlock's world there are: Sherlock Holmes, Jon, John Watson, Watkinson, Holman, and mention of the older Frogwares Holmes counterpart. His canon touches the 4th Wall a lot. There are references from the various adaptations everywhere, and I think it accounts for some of Sherlock's madness and feeling like he never fits. Things are out of order, referenced by other people, and so on.
I have no problem with characters knowing or being fans of Sherlock Holmes in general, just not that he's the specific fictional video game character. People will definitely get the sense that he's the young man who is supposed to grow to be the famous detective... but things happened.
Also Cordona is a made up island by Frogwares. Sherlock will speak of the island, but it won't be on any map unless someone is from his canon. Even more confusion for him.

cyrus douglas | mycroft holmes | paladin
Contact:
CHARACTER INFO
Canon: the Mycroft Holmes series by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (yea THAT kareem) and Anna Waterhouse; he comes from the beginning of book 3, Mycroft and Sherlock: The Empty Birdcage
Armada: Paladin
About: Tl;dr - Douglas is the Watson analogue to the elder Holmes brother! He's 43, originally from Trinidad, and a former sailor turned owner of a tobacco shop AND boys shelter. He's an unfailingly kind and modest man, much preferring to let others take the spotlight while he fades into the background, but he's actually very smart and capable in his own right. He's a big literature nerd, a decent fighter (ask him about the capoeira!), and a steadfast and mature friend to have around. Also he actually knows how boats work, he's got your back on all the sailing stuff guys. :|b You will probably see him hovering around Mycroft Holmes because they're insufferable.
app & additional info; please also check out his permissions, although i'll never bring anything up unprompted his canon does touch some sensitive subject matter.
Abilities: He can kick his leg real high in the air and if you're in trouble he can do a killer Dad Voice. That's it, he doesn't trust magic enough yet to even think about using it himself.
PLANS
Mostly just looking to hammer out some CR and make some more friends (or enemies if you're nasty?!) He's settled into the crew of the Raiders of the Lost Arc and is taking it easy while he's here, so I really want him to continue making connections. I also have a long-term goal of him finding a magical cure to the injury to his heart: he has some bullet fragments in there that are too close and dangerous to remove, maybe even by modern medicine. I would love to spend the next few months warming him up to it as a possibility and finally doing it, so if anyone wants in on that!!!
Also there's an alternate universe version of his best friend's baby brother here now, what is up with that... please hold on how that castmate-not-castmate drama is going to affect him
MANTA Board: He is on 2 truths and a lie! Other than that, I don't have plans, but I am potentially open to all of them, local man can and will be dragged into your nonsense.
Event: I'm playing FAST AND LOOSE with crabs island so I'm probably gonna tag out and see what happens??? But I could be convinced into writing custom starters.
CR Dreams:
- CR that is a bunch of old guys drinking and complaining ("old" and "guy" need not necessarily apply as long as you've got the spirit)
- other Victorians, this is crazy to you guys too right?!?!
- characters from hysterically mismatched canons to weird out the Victorian, come bewilder him with far future scifi and magic and stuff
- Weirdoes to drag him around doing freak shit. Don't worry he loves shenanigans but like secretly.
- That but with weirdo young people, I love the 'ace attorney normal guy and weirdgirl sidekick' dynamic and he's such a straight man that he is PRIME for it
- Nerds who will talk to him about literature/philosophy/other things I will be forced to look up for threads lmaooo
- ik it's a copout but honestly anything while i try to get him more settled!
Etc.: I love book canons but i never have relevant canon memes to share cries. instead i offer you crab. also im sorry if any of this is not legible i just took a melatonin,,,

Alhaitham | Genshin Impact | Paladin
Contact: Just message me here or hit me up in the discords
CHARACTER INFO
Canon: Genshin Impact | Patch 3.8 (Kaveh's Hangout on the ending The First Ideal)
Armada: Paladin
About: Kaveh's infamous roommate. Loves reading, long walks on the beach, and aggravating Kaveh in all the ways. Will most likely not entertain you unless you have something that has his interest or happen to be an earnest teenager
who Kaveh has most likely adopted.Abilities: Including his standard canon abilities, he now also has... more teleport, basically lmao. He can now carry things/people when he teleports and also use it two times before recharging. All very useful stuff.
PLANS
MANTA Board: Nothing too much this month (at least publicly). The only one I'm really eyeing is Like A Fish Out Of Water, so if anyone wants to help him out with that and get him those fish slippers hit me up.
Event: Will most likely just be tagging out as I'll be busy next week onwards with a new job, so again if people want to have threads with me just let me know! Otherwise I'll just hit up whatever calls to me.
CR Dreams: More nerds he can nerd with b/c that's the only way he'll speak with people at the moment for the most part lmaooo. Other than that I am always up for him being annoying or getting annoyed in turn (though he will most likely walk away if so lmfao).

Goro Akechi | Persona 5 | Paladin
Contact:
CHARACTER INFO
Canon: Persona 5 (Final boss in P5 Royal)
Armada: Paladin
About: A detective and assassin, Goro Akechi is an angry young man who's very, very good at pretending that he's actually a pleasant and mild-mannered young man. Technically speaking he doesn't work well with others, but he's also very good at forcing himself to work well with others. He's a big mess of contradictions, and though he's pretty prickly and hard to get along with he understands the value of at least seeming friendly and approachable.
Abilities: He can summon a manifestation of his personality to cast magic (mostly dark type magic) and hit things really hard, and he can also hit things very hard by himself.
As for setting powers, I haven't decided which element to have him focus on, but I am leaning towards air or ice!
PLANS
Longer term I would love for him to eventually join a player-lead crew! Akechi is not someone that forms connections easily, so I'd be fine with this being part of a slow burn CR arc, or something that starts off as strictly transactional at first.
MANTA Board: Supply Side Logic: As mentioned above, Akechi is a detective, but he also has a lot of experience sneaking around and dealing with thieves and other shady individuals. I think it would be an interesting way for him to start making a name for himself in the Paladins, so if you're looking for a partner for it let me know!
While I don't have concrete plans, I'd also be happy to have Akechi join in for Spring Sprung Slugs, Who Lives in a Pineapple, Stroking the Haft, or either of the bounties.
CR Dreams:
Seeking: Other detective types, frienemies, people disillusioned with existing power structures, Paladins that think murder is okay sometimes (or are at least willing to step outside the law to get things done)
Offering: If you're looking for negative CR, Akechi is great for it! He's also good for acrimonious friendships. If your character is the sort that can't help but dig at emotionally closed off people to get them to open up then Akechi can be a challenge for them. He is also surprisingly good with shy, unconfident, or inexperienced characters, so long as they're still making a genuine effort and can handle someone that's a bit of a jerk about it.

Faris Scherwiz | Final Fantasy V | Corsair
Contact:
CHARACTER INFO
Canon: Postgame
Armada: Corsair
About:
Faris was born Princess Sarisa to the most absurdly altruistic, will-fall-on-a-sword-immediately (esp for dragons) family of possibly anywhere. Then she was lost at sea age 5 and rescued by pirates.
So now Faris is living with the fact that he was raised to be a selfish marauder, and is really good at it, and is proud of how good he as at it, while also being proud of his heritage and wanting to understand it better. Also pirates teach you how to do many things but "form a healthy relationship with your own emotions and identity" is not one of them. It's a bit of a mess.
He helped save the world with 3 other goofballs with the help of a bunch of consecutively shattered crystals that they were trying to protect, so at least he has developed a genuine sense of altruism and responsibility for the world around him--one that extends to this world, even though it isn't his own.
Abilities:
Faris is from one of those "save the world through dress-up" Final Fantasies. She's mastered the Dragoon job (jump high, land hard, plus a lil dragon-flavored magic), Thief (general sneakiness and sneaky skills), and Cannoneer (summoning a tiny cannon out of hammerspace and opening fire using various magic powder & ammo). Outside of that, Faris has been at sea man and boy and is also a dab hand with pretty much anything that's got a blade on the end of it.
I also need to count up the points Faris has earned and see if she's got enough to get the Syldra summon back.
PLANS
MANTA Board:
Barfights: Faris will be sorely tempted by this but has an aversion to actually getting legless drunk. So if you want to catch him participating without actually getting his blood to 190 proof...
Slugs and wolves: Faris will be helping clear out the slugs and will be willing to fight the wolfy fish because those are both threats to the local ecology and threats to people's lives. Join him!
If you're interested in one of the things not listed here, hmu! (Whether it's by help or hindrance.)
Event: I will probably be doing both topleveling and tagging around. Faris will probably be swinging between being overly truthful and telling tall tales. Because it's how FFV's party rolls, she will be affected in whatever way is least useful to the situation at hand.
She will only get help with this from the pinching crabs.
CR Dreams: Faris is a person who despises talking about feelings unless those feelings are directly related to being a pirate. He's got a soft spot for goofballs, the overly earnest, and cantankerous old coots. So he's liable to get along with those sorts, even if he won't admit it out loud. It's also easier to get your foot in the door with him if you're doing some kind of dangerous thing together, since he's much more comfortable there than doing uhhh most normal human activities. If you impress him with your nerve / earnestness / skill, then he'll probably seek you out in future.
Or you could just drive each other up the wall by being stubborn idiots. That is fun and hilarious and I'm for it.
Also, Faris has some Gender Issues that have a lot to do with being raised in a setting without a very advanced understanding of gender issues. Princess Sarisa was shipwrecked age 5 and found by pirates who raised her as a boy because Only Men Can Be Pirates, and now Faris is best summed up as "genderfluid but doesn't know that word exists". Faris has since learned that pronouns are a thing you can decide for yourself without having to get in a fight about it (???????) and in true Faris fashion has sort of buried that, but his complicated feelings are sort of bubbling around there. I'd like it if he could start figuring that out a bit more! (If you don't enjoy that sort of subject while doing fun pirate RP times, you can lmk here or here

Armada:Corsair | The Raiders of the Lost Arts crew
Crew Recruitment | Crew Info Page
About: App | Series and Character Reference | Permissions
A 38,000+ god, in-canon equivalent of the King of Hell, and literally the most powerful being in his universe, he's got an ego that is well earned but not to the benefit of society. Daqiang has spent the majority of his life devoid of emotions and through in-canon shenanigans has started to regain them. Leaving him to currently have something of a hot and cold personality wrapped around a highly intelligent scholar who is curious about the world and slowly, very slowly, learning to be a person instead of the tool and weapon of his people that he has thought of himself as for so long.
PLANS
OOCly: I'm taking it easy this month as I'm an accountant working tax season and it's starting to get to the really busy part in addition to a lot of RL obligations I need to see to. I'm planning on doing casual tag outs for the event and any manta board stuff that looks interesting, but will be looking to wrap up a fair number of threads from January and February.
MANTA Board:
2 Truths and a Lie | Daqiang has a Top Level Here
Lots of interest in others, but not committing to anything right now.
Event: Tagging out only, but my inbox is open if you want to tag Daqiang with something specific.
CR Dreams: open to whatever is funny. there is a bodyswap going on and it should be taken full advantage of.

About:
Heizou is a cheerful, energetic, smart ass genius detective from
Genshin JapanInazuma who'll tease and flirt with you just to see how you react. He looks like a kid but he's in his early 20s so DON'T BE FOOLED BY HIS BABY FACE!! As a detective he loves solving puzzles and mysteries, and he's incredibly observant so if you've got secrets to keep, hold them real close to your chest. But beware, the more of a mystery he thinks you are, the more he's going to want to pry~Abilities:
Canonly he's a trained martial artist all by himself, but with the aid of his Vision he can use the wind to buff up his punches and kicks (by like. a lot. seriously, his punches hit like a truck)! He also kind of unconsciously uses it to help him run a little faster and not get tired too quickly.
He did get a tattoo, but mostly only to cover for when he doesn't have access to his Vision. So at the moment there are no plans to develop anything special through his tattoo.
PLANS
CR Dreams: Looking for anything, really! Since Heizou is such a brat, he doesn't actually... have a lot of people he'd call friends, so even that would be a nice change of pace for him. He'll need people who can either keep up with his brain or properly put him in his place when he gets annoying!
Etc.: FALCON...

Denji | Chainsaw Man | Corsair
Contact: Plurk is best at
CHARACTER INFO
Canon: Chapter 80; After Aki's death and the subsequent inheritance of his will but before Denji's run-in with Makima on the park bench and going back to her place to meet her dogs.
Armada: Corsair
About: A teenage boy who lived a life of misery after his deadbeat father passed away and incurred his dad's debt to the Yakuza, Denji initially makes a pact with a devil named Pochita to survive together in this cruel world. The pair survived by whatever means necessary selling his body parts, being a lumberjack most profitably hunting devils for the mob. Unfortunately the boy is fooled by the head of the Yakuza who was also the zombie devil, killing the boy and his pet devil Pochita along with him. However his little friend bestows upon its heart to give Denji another chance at life, promising to live out his dreams to the fullest as he became something more than human, a hybrid who was capable of transforming into the fearsome Chainsaw Man. He was then picked up by one Miss Makima of Public Safety and given the life he always wanted eating good food and a chance at achieving his once unfathomable dreams all while serving under her as a loyal dog killing devils aplenty.
Abilities: A list of his canon abilities can be found over here on his application!
PLANS
MANTA Board: You can find his Two Truths and a Lie post here! I would love to do the Who Lives in a Pineapple as Denji would find exploring the ocean really cool since he could not swim until just recently! I totally would be game for him getting into some tavern brawls at the Belle of the Brawl since he loves a good scrap as well!
Event: Denji will explore around his newfound surroundings to the best of his ability and want to venture out with newfound accomplices and perhaps even make some friends along the way! I'll plot out more with people about this once we get the full event details so please feel free to reach out to me if you would like to do anything with Denji! I'll definitely be doing a top level for the event!
CR Dreams: FRIENDS ALL OF THE FRIENDS!! Also I am totally down to get some frenemies CR too because lets be honest he cannot be friends with everyone and tends to mouth off on occasion...especially to other men as he usually has a soft spot for women, sorry boys it's just in his terrible nature. ><
Etc.: Beware this boy is unhinged and chaotic. Also this is Denji when he sees a pretty girl and gets flustered.

Alfyn | Octopath Traveler | Paladins
Contact:
CHARACTER INFO
Canon: Octopath Traveler; all of the protagonists' journeys have been completed but no Big Steps toward the
secretfinal boss have happened afterward!Armada: Paladins
About: A kind, genuine young man who is always willing to help those in need, expecting nothing in return. Alfyn believes every life is worth saving, that it isn't up to him to decide who is worthy of help; in the face of a harsh world, he struggles to hold on to these ideals. He helps others because he should, often asking for little or no payment. At a young age he suffered a terrible illness, and took up the path of the apothecary to follow in the footsteps of the man who saved his life. (I fully copied this from the profile I made for him a few months ago...)
Alfyn loves a good conversation and expects a real answer when he asks how you're doing; his primary out of combat action is just chatting someone up for information! His default state is cheerful and welcoming. He'll do whatever it takes to help someone if they're in front of him (metaphorically) and in need and he has some way to give it!
Abilities: He's trained in making medicine (and other useful things - in canon, as an example, he makes conditioner his party members use on their hair) in addition to all of his other practical medical skills. He also knows a convenient ice spell, and a little bit of healing magic. At the moment I haven't thought in detail about what else he might want or need via tattoo, but that could be explored or come about through enough threads for him to spot a hole he could fill, I think.
PLANS
CR Dreams: People Alfyn can drink with and share a good story! He really does thrive on his own helpfulness and good cheer, though, and it would be fun if he also had someone to "talk shop" with! Either about plants or about being an apothecary or, heck, about growing up in a little backwoods town.
Etc.: PLAY OCTOPATH TRAVELER experience Alfyn and all of his friends and come scream at me about them. Yes I know it's like a six year old game. Shh.

Sidestep | Fallen Hero | Corsair
Contact:
CHARACTER INFO
Canon: Fallen hero, near end of Retribution, right before the car crashes.
Armada: Corsair
About: Sidestep is a deeply traumatized, slightly unhinged android with absolutely ridiculous telepathic powers, the permissions for which can be found here. They're skittish and distrusting and at times edgy to the point of cringe, but they're not all that evil (despite the whole supervillain thing), at least not on the canon path I took them from. Instead they're just a shit and an asshole.
I don't have a visual reference yet (waiting on a commission), but they're kind of underwhelming in appearance: about 5'7" or so in height with a wiry frame and shabby clothing that's a mix of casual wear and what appears to be military surplus/tactical gear. Gender and race are indeterminate, and they have light brown skin, dark brown hair, and gray eyes.
Abilities: I think their canon telepathic abilities are enough for now.
PLANS
For more long term plans I know I wanna avoid reveals of their secrets for a while, but I'm not sure beyond that.
MANTA Board: They're tagging other people on the two truths and a lie thing but beyond that I'm not sure.
Event: They might be more trusting for a bit, since it'll make it easier to get them to interact with people, but they'll be seeking a way to fix that once they realize something is wrong.
CR Dreams: At this point? Anything! They can offer both positive and negative CR, though they are an edgelord asshole, so...
Emet-Selch | Final Fantasy XIV | Paladin
Contact: DM, plurk available upon request
CHARACTER INFO
Canon: Post-Shadowbringers (5.0) and early on into Endwalker (6.0)
Armada: Paladin
About: Short of the actual gods, Emet-Selch is one of the most powerful adversaries the Warrior of Light faces in FF14. To the average mortal/human, he WOULD be considered one - however, he considers himself a regular man and he lives and dies the same way (even if said life is practically indefinite). Amongst his own people, he was known as a powerful and competent mage with particularly sharp Soulsight: the ability to perceive things at the aetherial level.
As an individual, he's rather solitary and standoffish and doesn't make friends easily. But he cares more than he lets on.
Abilities: As Emet-Selch doesn't have access to Creation magicks here in Escordvi, he's simply just a powerful mage. This ranges from the typical elemental spells to healing spells to more esoteric things like aether-imbued weapon arts. He can also transform into a
boss formsecond form, but here it's restricted by intense emotion.PLANS
MANTA Board:
- "My Lovely Wife": of course I gotta give Emet something to store a soul in. :') This is a chance to get some angsty backstory if you're so inclined, or to develop CR in general while he fetches things for the spell.
- Underwater pineapples: Emet can create something of a temporary air bubble to travel into the depths with so if you're so inclined to help him harvest while he maintains that then...!
- Two Truths One Lie
Event: I've not yet decided on what Emet will try to do, if anything, but the man distrusts mortals to a certain degree and so it wouldn't be hard for that to be preyed upon. Alternatively, if you want something silly, he could swing too far the other way and trust anything you say (but I wouldn't recommend it unless you want him to be angry at you later if taken too far).
CR Dreams: I do desire more bonding with his crew and other characters. Due to my work I often don't get time to look through everything past the first week so if there's something you want to make happen then let's make it happen. I'm open to other prompts from MANTA or the event log if you can think of a way to get Emet involved.
fyodor dostoevsky / bungo stray dogs / paladin
Contact: PM is the best way to catch me, I do have a discord but I log onto it every four months so.
CHARACTER INFO
Canon: manga chapter 112 / end of season 5
Armada: Paladin
About: Fyodor is from a canon which uses RL authors as characters and gives them abilities/powers based around their literary works. Sometimes the results are hilarious, case in point: Fyodor. He is one of the main antagonists in the series, usually appearing like fucking Batman on some rooftop and letting the wind sway his cloak. Aside from a plethora of crimes (and this man has done so. much. crime.) he enjoys religion, music and seeking for a book that allows the user to rewrite reality.
Fyodor is, at first glance, polite and seemingly harmless though he is not. He is constantly paying attention and trying to find out the ways to manipulate people around him.
Abilities: Great question--canon hasn't told us the inns and outs of Fyodor's power, for now it seems to be a touch that causes death but he has a measure of control over it. Of course, with that tattoo he's only regained a fraction of that, so if you touch him and he wants you to let go, you'll probably feel a stabbing pain.
This said, I will never use this ability without permission, which works out well because canonically Fyodor rarely has been shown to use his ability.
PLANS
Another long term wish is getting him his own spy network here because he needs to sit on a pile of secrets or else he gets bored.
Event: Probably tagging out because I am very slow to write top levels, if you want me to hit yours with a specific prompt I am more than happy to do so.
CR Dreams: Anything! Which is vague, but I would really enjoy him having to work together with people he just can't stand because it is the only way to survive and seeing how that slowly develops. Any big brain characters to throw philosophy and questions about religion with. Anyone who wants to be manipulated (nicely) into working for him!
Etc.: There has been some major reveals in the last manga chapter this month, please let me know if you want me to steer clear of any spoilers while interacting with him. Otherwise, if you don't mind, let me know and we can do further planning!
Thank you and looking forward to throwing this garbage at y'all!
