OOC INTRO: SEPTEMBER
welcome to in the night.
We're so glad to have you! Feel free to use this post to introduce yourselves to the rest of the game.
Not sure where to begin? Letting other players know your name, pronouns, who you play, and how to contact you is a good starting point. And, of course, shitposting with gifs and memes is always good too. Welcome aboard!

Allie Pressman || The Society
/immediately apps a new character.
Chill is overrated anyway.
Hey all, Brooke here (mun of Scarlett Harker) finally making good on that
threatpromise to bring in a second character.Allie (Pressman) is from the new(ish) Netflix series: The Society. It's a show about a bunch of young adults that find themselves completely cut off from the world and all the people in it, and are forced to try and create a functional society when they're well and truly in over their heads.
I wanna say it's Lost meets Season 1 of The 100?
Anyway! Allie comes in from the end of season 1 and it's really hard for me to tell you a lot about her without a million spoilers. What I can say is that Beacon isn't going to be that strange for her, because she's been living a life a lot like this back home.
If you don't have me on plurk you should fix that;

we will have to do something with these two, bc clarke will undoubtedly want to hear how successful her group was while they were alive! functional society is super-challenging, man.

Him rn:
* Soon to be wife.
Kol's an Original Vampire, meaning that in his canon he is one of the strongest and oldest vampires in existence. With this comes a multitude of abilities that can affect characters! Because he's pissed off a few dead witchy people and is with a girl who has pissed off a few dead witchy people, he's coming in hexed. Basically his soul is corrupted and his already amplified emotions are heightened even more so. I'm working towards Kol losing his shit. :(
On the other side of the coin, Kol's actually fun, cheeky and can be quite arrogant and impulsive. If the above isn't your cup of tea, he's someone who is going to be preoccupying himself with tasks, causing mayhem, locating a bat and researching the place. (Nerds are hot!)
Because of his abilities and the fact that he has shit bloodlust control and is a vampire, I have a permissions post that details vampire-related opportunities for CR. Feel free to fill that stuff out if it's of interest to you!
For plotting and all that, you can reach me at
Kol has also come in naked so be prepared for him walking around shirtless until he finds the Right Shirt™.

but besides that!! he is a student and very polite, but gets meaner the more he likes you, which is always a treat. he has a magic soul summon called a Stand and it's a bunch of gooey green tentacles curled up in a boy shape. it shoots rocks.
he likes video games and cherries and that's like, it. one time a vampire holepunched his entire torso and now he's here, woooo....

I will be playing this hunk of demonic angst:
Hobbies include:
-Misplacing the antichrist
-Opining to God because he's so sad all the time
-Yelling at plants
-Drinking a lot of wine
-Being generally lazy and bad at his job
Very excited to be here. I'm very, very bad at technology, so please excuse me while I get used to discord (rude_not_ginger #0214) and I'm still getting used to my plurk(
Please hit me up with any ideas you have for plotting---Crowley isn't the brightest bulb in the universe, but he's certainly up for most shenanigans. If your character dislikes demons, it might also be good to get them acquainted quickly.

Bucky kinda doesn't think of himself as a person right now, and is in complete denial about that whole thing where Steve told him his name, but he'll be getting more personhood and memories back with time. Right now he's not super chatty or really sociable, but I will be making an effort to give enough hooks for people to reply to, and get enough CR for him to start caring about, cuz he has a protective streak a mile wide that I absolutely want to play with.
On that note, if anybody wants to get some instant (if potentially annoying for your character) CR, there's a bunch of faceless Hydra mooks in his past both as field handlers and techs, and also targets, if anybody wants to have their character look a lot like someone from his past for him to latch onto.

She's both the beauty and the beast.
Elena is a nineteen-year-old baby vampire who was turned less than two years ago, so she's nowhere near as strong as her also just arrived canonmate, Kol. She is still considerably stronger than a normal human though, and she has some nifty supernatural abilities (permissions here) that she'll be open about in game since she's decided to say fuck it and tell everyone she's a vampire.
One major thing to note about Elena: She is not in a great place emotionally when arriving in Beacon. It's only been a few weeks since she lost her soulmate to a permanent death and, as a result, she will probably be more than a little reckless as she dives headfirst into everything in Beacon. (In canon, she was soon to resort to ancient psychotropic drugs to continue "seeing" him, so caution isn't really the name of her game right now.) She's had lots of practice at hiding her pain and grief, though, so there will be plenty of friendly neighborhood vampire moments for all.
Anyway, I am super excited to be here even if Elena is not. If you want to chat game things (or just things in general), you can reach me at

matt will find the concept of vampirism outside of an anne rice novel wild, but since she's a baby his big dumb heart will hurt for her and prob try and look out for her.

I know it's a more obscure series, so I'll try to give the lowdown as best I can. Eliot is someone who presents as a much more flamboyant, party-animal edition of Regina George (he's a dandy) but is 1000% faking it, because as much as he loves other people, they are 1000% not to be trusted either. He's quite jaded and has several cw worthy topics in his canon, he himself being someone that suffers from substance abuse and alcoholism, but I'll be setting up an opt-out for his various things hopefully tomorrow to make sure I'm not stepping on any toes for anyone. On the surface, he comes across as extremely shallow and uncaring, but typically his Mean GIrls behavior is to deter people from getting too close to keep himself being hurt by other people.
Generally speaking, he bonds quite easily and forges solid acquaintanceships, reserving friendships for those who are closer but since he's an extrovert, people that are acquaintances also fall in the realm of "friendly" unless he deems otherwise. While he's deffo a bitch a times, he's a soft boy deep down that just wants to be appreciated. That's why he's kind of the dad friend of his friend group, but really anyone he thinks could use a little guidance, he'd probably offer some advice to simply because he doesn't really enjoy watching others suffer. Beyond that, he's a highly skilled magician who's had his magic reasonably depowered and his specialty (fire) being nuked to light-less so that's something fun I'd really like to play with if anyone's interested. Fire, electricity, and kinetic force are things that don't take a lot of effort for him to use, but obviously the electricity part is especially ganked in terms of light, so he'll definitely be very frustrated about how the shit he's good at somehow being kind of useless outside of direct impact. Aside from that he's pan and extremely sex positive, but I always try to tone him down a bit so he's not too overbearing in a game setting.

Fun stuff about her:
- Witch! Witch. Highest-key witch. Who won't be telling people anything about it or using any abilities when she has cause to believe someone might notice, because literally every time it comes up, she gets murdered.
- On that note! She's died four times! Every single one was fun and traumatic in its own way, and she's doing Super Fine, thanks for asking! Totally not at the end of her rope!
- Will be FIRMLY convinced Beacon isn't a legitimate afterlife and therefore escapable; of particular note to her since her biggest-deal magical ability was undoing precisely these kinds of Final Deaths
- Maddeningly lonely, extrovert who has never had friends and a new reluctance to trust anyone that's actually completely justified by her life
- Gardens, cooks, Likes Classic Rock More Than You, deeply kind, quietly and persistently miserable, all of her magic was self-taught and she was on equal footing with people born and raised around magic in under a year, resourceful, actively not here to be fucked with, cinnamon roll that is a cinnamon roll but will still kill you, Cajun, weird religious feelings on a back burner, sharp dresser, Survival Skills
- Undying dedication to platform boots boost her from 5"8 to 6"0, who is she looming over, c'mon, check in
- Probably gonna get REAL INTO THE FOREST SPIRITS
- please ........... pleasant company??? It'll take a lot for her to trust that any given person wouldn't literally murder her the minute they had any possible incentive to, but that's kind of. Why. It's Necessary.
She doesn't have much by way of memes but she does canonically raid kitchens when given the opportunity.

My name is Erica (she/her pronouns). I work as a high school English teacher, I live with my dog named Cooper, and I read ALL THE THINGS. I also enjoy the occasional D&D game, binge-ing the latest Netflix craze, and just generally doing whatever it is we nerdy 30-somethings do when we aren't playing fictional characters online. You can friend me on Plurk @
I am joining this lovely game with Jason Grace from the Rick Riordan YA series about demigods and the shit the gods put them through, collectively referred to as Camp Half-Blood Chronicles since it is technically three separate series now. Many of you may recognize the original starter of the series: Percy Jackson. Jason hails originally from the sequel series, Heroes of Olympus, but is more recently from the more recent leg of the series: The Trials of Apollo. I haven't even summed up Jason and as you can already see this is a long story. The short of it is Jason Grace is the demigod child of Jupiter (Zeus' Roman Form) and has spent most of his life in a camp for fellow descendants from gods on the California coast. In the past year or so he lost his memory, got abducted by a goddess to be a part of a Greek Camp for Demigods on the east coast, saved the world from multiple Titans, stopped the personification of Earth from revolting against human-kind, and just generally trying to keep himself and his friends from being murdered.
Only to get murdered in the NEXT series while helping Apollo.
So, you know, it's been pretty eventful lately and this just makes the next in a long series of quests/adventures he gets to be apart of with a ragtag bunch of fellows who will likely become his new best friends. There is no rest for a demigod, even in death.
Personality wise, Jason is pretty friendly and helpful. He always strives to do his best and is always his own hardest critic. He looks like a blonde Superman (two characters have made this comparison) while also being a semi-closeted nerd. I have more about that in his permission post: if you are worried about fourth-walling of any kind.

Melly | Daylight vis Lornlit & Aislin Abendroth | Original
DAYLIGHT VIS LORNLIT |
Daylight is from a sci-fi setting set in the 2100s, where the extraordinary is both the norm and the exception depending which part of the stars you're in. One of the key events of this universe is an intergalactic civil war that spanned for centuries and planets. He has strong ties to the war thanks to his parents and Lots of Plot Stuff going down in his background, but he's just trying his best to be a good person and help those he can along the way because somebody has to do it...!
Daylight is friendly, bubbly, and bright. Well- He's trying to be. After his death at the party and the realisation he lost the ability to see a colour, Daylight is feeling down but doing his best to hide that with good old gumption and cheer. It also helps there are a lot of new people here for him to help so he can focus less on his own issues. He'll be participating in the For Everything a Reason and Gather Up events but opt-out for the meteor shower since that'll only remind him of home and haha... he can't right now.

AISLIN ETTA ABENDROTH |
Aislin is from a world that can be best described as Lovecraft country: Great Old Ones knocking at the doors of a fragile world that's steeped in ignorance. Cults and survivors fighting over scraps of power/knowledge and against their very fates. Lots and lots of misery if you're in the wrong place and time. The latter happened to Aislin when she found herself unwillingly imbued with a connection to Xa'ligha, an Outer God who specialises in dissonant melodies and sounds.
She's quiet, secretive, and pretty much internally screaming. She somehow managed to survive last month's wild events so she's pretty happy with that...! She'll be participating in the For Everything a Reason event and have a little minilog during the meteor shower, but she'll be not fully participating in the Gather Up event. And! If you guys can take the time to fill in a quick list of questions regarding her powers, that'll be great. A link for the power permissions post can be found below!

Quentin Coldwater | The Magicians
Quentin has clinical depression to the point of being in the hospital several times, he's bad at socializing and he is, at heart, at huge nerd. He's been fixated on a fictional books series for kids called Fillory and Further (think same storyline as Narnia, only with a clock instead of a wardrobe) for years, and on the show, they show him coming to terms with growing meaning that not only do you outgrow childish things, growing up means being disillusioned and heartbroken. Over the course of the show, we see Quentin lose - a lot. He's still a nerd, hugely, and loves to read. He's the sort of person, who knows his favorite books by heart, knows all the fan theories and ran the messageboard about it. He's the sort of person who hides at the back of the party with his book and his one cup of something alcoholic and sweet.
He's awkward as all hell and really, this is Quentin:
Short run down-
- likes books
- introvert
- passive-aggressive
- has a wooden arm, but it looks real. Can't feel anything
- loves magic, even when it fucks them all over again and again
- really, really good at muggle magic (card tricks, coin tricks)
- tends to look like a kicked puppy
- HUGE nerd, come be a nerd with him about the whole lore about this place! Quentin is going to be all over that.
- died and his body disintegrated in a shower of sparks in a Mirror World, he gave his life to save his friends and the world-
- is completely sure this is just his crappy afterlife, because why would the afterlife be any different than his regular one.
I'm in central Europe, which means I'm probably out of sync with most of you? So PM-ing this journal is the best way to get a hold of me.

Hi Ireth, I'm Brooke and I play Scarlett here from the little known series Van Helsing, as well as Allie Pressman from The Society. I have somehow, never managed to watch The Magicians despite being told I need to, but you tube, tumblr and RP have all shown me that I need Quentin CR :D

henlo, is it me you're looking for?
i'm comin' atcha with Jim Hopper of Netflix's Stranger Things fame. the show's three glorious seasons of 80s sci-fi/horror/coming-of-age film remixed with all the character dynamics you could ever ask for. i try and mimic the tone of the series in my writing so i endeavor to incorporate humor and levity where i can!
for the uninitiated, Hopper's chief of police in a small town in Indiana when sci-fi shenanigans go down. he's gone from a hardened, traumatized Indiana Jones type to a cranky, traumatized Indiana Jones type with an adopted telekenetic murder daughter, he's really grown! because, you see, now the disaster is on the outside and not just the inside.
• irritable and sarcastic grouch who has a tenuous grasp on his emotions lately
• a cop, 100% used to being an authority figure
• a Dad, but not to everyone, oh god, why are there so many smartass kids here?? make it stop? (reinforce his paternal side, i beg of you, b-blease... he will hate it [at first])
• kinda a rude dick bc deep down under all the hurt he does care a lot, i swear
• grappling with all kinds of cw-ish stuff like ptsd, substance abuse, nightmares, etc, so please don't hesitate to opt-out or gimme a heads up if you wanna avoid anything in particular
hmu if any of this sounds interesting or fun, and i look forward to playing with you all! ♥
yes yes it is
Hi! I'm Brooke and I play one of those smartass kids?? (Allie Pressman from The Society). Granted my more childish one is the 33 year old Van Helsing so, go figure. (Scarlett Harker from Van Helsing).
Scar is also kind of a rude dick and Allie will call Hopper on his shit so clearly I need to throw both of them his way.

A guide to your new Molly:
+ Loud mouth for expressing opinions and believing he knows best about everything.
+ Gender fluidity for confusing people on purpose and also aesthetic.
+ Hedonism for fun and profit.
+ Plenty of lies to infuriate you or delight you.
+ All the Hufflepuff traits to balance out the wankiness.
+ A secret identity crisis he will not be talking about.
He's basically that fine line between a good person and an awful person and believes fully in making the world a better place in small deeds and also making sure people who suck get punished in some manner to knock them down a peg. He's great.
He's also technically two years old because he has amnesia and lived a whole other life as what is probably a cult leader that he will not be acknowledging or talking about because fuck that, this is his.

steve harrington and the sorcerer's stone
as for steve, he's arriving freshly dead from the midst of the last episode of season 3, so there may be some spoilers on my end. if you're dead-set against spoilers, just let me know and we can work something out! otherwise, get ready for an onslaught of dumb antics and great hair! steve is kind of known for it, btw, his hair is his best feature. but more seriously, he's actually a really good dude, a little cranky sometimes, but he's a good person to have on your side in a tough spot.
hit me up if you'd like to plot something out! i'm honestly so excited to get started and gather up all the cr. i've been out of games for about 9 months now, so i'm a wee bit rusty, but i'm here and i'm ready to party. i operate on pst (west coast lyfe!) and i do work a full-time gig, so i'm not the quickest tagger in the world but i do try to clear my inbox every few days. you can find me over on plurk at

nancy wheeler and the chamber of secrets
hellohello! i'm chrissy and i'm brandy new and i'll be playing nancy wheeler from stranger things! she was given the nickname "nancy drew" by her misogynistic coworkers, but it's pretty dang accurate. she's a real tough cookie with a long history of breaking little hearts like the one in
steveme.i'm so bad at intros, i'm so sorry.
anyway, she's an aspiring journalist and investigator, but she'll never mention that she's a novice at both because she thinks she's pretty dang good at it. she gives a shit about the truth and helping people on a molecular level, and has a very low tolerance for bullshit. just the lowest. she also is an alarmingly good shot with both rifles and pistols. she shot a can off a tree stump in an episode of season one and by the end of the season she was a frickin' sharp shooter. and now at her current canon point that was 2-3 years ago, so she's even better. i have no explanation for this besides tv magic, but i'm okay with it. she died with a gun in her hand, so she just needs some bullets. going to totally shoot darkness in the face. who needs lanterns when you have.. guns. ( idk i really don't know what's happening to this intro at this point )
as for me! it's easiest to get a hold of me on plurk @
