HELLO HELLO EVERYONE my name is Val (she/her) and I'm bringing you a kitty with an attitude... or should we say cattitude, ahem.

Anyway, it's Catra from She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, that gay reboot of a cheesy 80s cartoon. She's a Villain With A Tragic Backstory and walks around with a giant chip on her shoulder. Also, she has hands with knives. Approach at own risk. :3;

She'll be coming in from the end of season 3, so spoiler alert for those who haven't watched so far! If you want, you can tell me if you're cool with spoilers on my permissions post.

You're welcome to add me on my plurk at honeyfoot!

[donttalktome]

I have already very much enjoyed your energy in the discord, and I know like nothing about your canon (it's on my watch list but I'm laaaaazy) but I need this disaster lesbian in my life.

... This is Leu btw LMAO. Welcome to the game!!!

[featherknives]

Hello!! I'm Helena and I play Ignis from ffxv ( reigniter ) and Xayah (this lady) from League. I look forward to tagging you, especially with Xayah because knives. Knives are cool.

I'll happily add you on plurk if that's okay with you :D!

[notthatjason]

Welcome officially Val! So excited to have some She-Ra characters in the game, especially Catra <3 There will probably be lots of clashing with Mr. Golden Boy (real name Jason Grace) here since he's very much hero-type do-gooder.

So, should be fun.

I also play Maes Hughes o7 he's a CRAU so there are a few bonus things for him besides what you get in FMA canon.

8D And I will take you up on your offer to add on plurk.

[worthallthis]

Catra is the best part of that show :D I approve.

Anyway, welcome! I'm Gail, I play this former-brainwashed-assassin dude here (we're still working on his identity issues...) and also Stone from the Books of the Raksura, who is a grumpy old alien who shapeshifts into what people are basically calling a dragon. Wings, tail, scales, tall as the inn, the whole shebang. I'm looking forward to tossing 'em at miss cranky-pants :D

[afoolshope]

Hello! I'm Amanda, bringing in Minato Arisato from that Persona game where they shoot themselves in the head. Also, the color blue.

Okay, for real, he's from Persona 3, but he really does use a (fake) gun to shoot himself in the head to summon his Persona. Or he would, alas his canon death was on the rooftop in the arms of toaster robot named Aigis and wouldn't you know it, no guns on school property! Well, darn.

Anyway, he looks emo, but he's actually very nice and likes music a lot and eats way too much. he a Protag. He's gonna be a little weird. Please say hi to him. :3

Edit: Also forgot to add, you can contact me via this journal or on plurk at mossflowered!

[legalcy]

rooty tooty persona shooty

Welcome to the game Amanda! I already have Duster and am bringing in a Transformer this month. Please don't use guns incorrectly!

[legalcy]

Hi everyone! This is Nara, Duster's player, with my second character Minimus Ambus from the first comic run by IDW! The Autobot-Decepticon war is over by the time he got here, and he's no longer the Fearsome and Respected Ultra Magnus but the local No Fun Allowed guy that puts you in time-out for tracking dirt indoors. He's ready to organize this place and scold people for misbehaving.

Right, you might notice he has two different appearances in his icons and that's because he wore a massive suit for most of his life known as Ultra Magnus. It's a bit of a Dread Pirate Roberts situation where the title is passed on to someone else when they die, but thankfully he arrives as himself so there's less confusion there. He's also 9 feet tall in Beacon, which is even shorter than his usual size.

I can't wait to play with all you new people! I'm also on plurk at mutanthairything for plotting!

[sunborne]

//SLAMS IN HERE IN GREAT EXCITEMENT

I can't wait for Day and Minimus Ambus to meet each other in the game. I'll be hitting up your toplevel on the intro log soon!!

/sticks out leggy

[endlessflask]

Hey fam~

I’m Lausanne (like Los Angeles but without the “geles” if you have no idea how to say it). Feel free to call me Laus, Hey You, That Ho, etc. I’m she/her, Canadian, and I’m slamming in here thanks to Chase mostly tbh.

I’m bringing y’all Eliot Waugh of The Magicians. Any former CR of the previous iteration is welcome but obviously this Eliot has no idea who they are. He’s from season three so his character growth is just beginning to blossom and I’m very excited to be here.

Feel free to add me on plurk blackspire, just let me know or have something in your profile saying you’re in game!

[notthatjason]

Jason will be a little confused (he and Eliot hunt out a bit -- I need to go back and look but I think Eliot was the first winner of the capture-the-flag games that Jason put on back when it wasn't winter), but will probably just roll with it eventually.

I also play Maes Hughes, but I don't think he really interacted with Eliot \o/

And I'm Erica, btw, so it's nice to meet you and welcome to the game <3

[punctually]

hi guys, i'm ame and i'm an old-newbie bringing in Peter Maximoff from XMCU! he is slightly different from his MCU counterpart and now that i'm taking him from mid-Dark Phoenix, he's chilled out some and less of a pain in the ass. sort of. depends on who you ask.

anyway, he's a reformed social recluse who used to steal shit for kicks, and then found his purpose and became a superhero as you do. he still has his super speed! but it's less super now: he's been reduced to going at the speed of sound, ~767mph rather than going the superhuman rate he was in canon. he'll be really salty about that, and also the fact that someone already took "quicksilver" on the network. check out his app here for more info!

but yes! feel free to PM me if you have any questions, or hit me up on plurk @ wooloos. it's good to be back again and i look forward to playing with everyone!

[techtype]

In Prompto's defense, he didn't know someone would show up and want that handle as well.

[reek]

Hello chums! I'm Hannah. I'm bringing you Theon Greyjoy from A Song of Ice and Fire, so he's of the book variety for all of you familiar with his show counterpart. Ask me about the differences sometime if you want an essay but tl;dr, book!Theon is even more miserable of a person than show!Theon.

Theon is an angry would-be prince with poor decision making skills and a penchant for laughing to hide his pain. He disappears for several books so I'm taking him from weird in middle point somewhere between A Clash of Kings and A Dance with Dragons, while he's at the Dreadfort but before he becomes Reek. If you want more info on that or on him, it's on his app. His particular story arc also discusses things people might not want to hear about, so if you want to opt out in full or in part, I have an opt out post here.

Add me on plurk if you like at muttonchops. I'll be throwing up a top level tonight on the intro!

[endlessflask]

this all sounds fake

[casts]

howdy folks, my name is anya and i was here once upon a time at the beginning of the game before dropping but now i've decided stick myself back into the fun. with me, i'm bringing one eddie kaspbrak from the 2017 reboot of the it franchise. he's a thirteen-year-old hypochondriac germaphobe who talks at a speed of 127 words a minute and tends to blow shit out of proportion because of a shitty home situation. :))) he's a loyal kid though and loves his friends but he's none to happy about dying in gray water while fighting a trifling ass sewer clown.

happy to be here and looking forward to throwing this melon at folks! feel free to add me on plurk at kaldwin if you'd like.

[legalcy]

Fighting in sewers is the worst....Poor Eddie, Minimus feels that.

Welcome back to the game Anya! I joined in December and I have my second character here.

[dolorem]

Hey hey everyone! My name is Melodie, I'm a brand new player who was dragged here against my will screaming and kicking by Nara just joined the game!

I'm bringing Edelgard from Fire Emblem Three Houses. Local Emperor of the local Empire, with a grudge against gods and a gift for trying to conquer the world— All in the name of bringing down religious oppression and breaking the rule of the nobles over common folks. So she's really doing good things... .... .... Even if it requires throwing an entire continent in the flames of war

Whether she's a villain or a hero is debatable, the fandom's not fixed on it yet. What's sure is that she has good intentions, but not necessarily the good ways to go about it.

Anyway, I'm not very good at intro, but looking forward to playing with you all! Feel free to add me, my plurk is lorulean

[legalcy]

You will never be free of me.

Welcome to the game, though! Please don't conquer the setting.

[tadaishi]

Hi!

This is Daimon, Prompto (and briefly Data Riku)'s player, bringing in a more human and less Squenix nerd, Tadashi Hamada from Big Hero 6.

For those who don't watch Disney movies or haven't seen this particular one, he's the big brother of the main character of the movie and basically is a super nice nerd boy who just wants to build robots and help people. He also likes sports, especially baseball and surfing, and he'll be sad he can't do the latter here in Beacon.

As for me, I'm on plurk at dropitlikeitshod and discord @ daimon#1067!

[legalcy]

Oh good a robot surgeon.

[uplifters]

hi, i'm lance and this is clark! he's a Regular Dude who is shy, awkward, and clumsy as hell, but he got the spirit and he's trying his best. he is not, in any way, an alien from a distant planet that exploded thousands of years ago, and does not at all have superpowers, what are you talking about. clark kent was on queer eye once and won

anyway, i'm taking mr. kent from the superman anthology-- the old chris reeve films from the 70's and 80's, INCLUDING the shitty III and IV, wahoo-- and dctv's crisis on infinite earths. COIE has incorporated the (super depressing) kingdom come comics into his history, so clark has both lost his wife and his friends about a decade or so ago, and lost a few superpowered friends as well fairly recently. character-wise, though, the anthology emphasises that clark kent is a literal human fucking disaster and is significantly different in character, mannerisms, etc. from his secret alter-ego, superman. i'll effectively be playing two characters, as clark does in his everyday life, with two different lives. maybe three as well if you count the Real clark kent and not the clark kent that can barely open a bottle of pop, but considering no-one knows him well enough for that yet, y'know!

clark's main goal in game is to help people, easy as that, even if he's been nerfed without a sun to help him photosynthesise. he's restless because of failure to save the multiverse before he was dematerialised in an antimatter wave, and his last words were "please fix it" in reference to saving the multiverse even without him. his first priority is always other people, to help in what they can't do on their own and serve as a kind of beacon of hope in the darkness. he'll always believe in the good of others, even total strangers, so if ever you need a pep talk or a pick me up, clark's your guy!

not sure what else to say, but i'm excited to be part of a game! feel free to add me on plurk at howletts if you'd like; otherwise, you can totally PM me here or ask for my discord. also, for anyone who threaded with me on the tdm, i'm down to make things game canon if you are. :)

[legalcy]

Oh boy here are two men with alter-egos (?) who just want to help and failed at it.

Hi Lance! I loved our thread and I can't wait for these two to actually meet in person. Do you think you want to keep our TDM thread canon?

[redtwin]

Hi all! My name's PG. I was here for a couple months at the start of the game, and am just now wandering back with a new character.

I'm bringing in Alisaie Leveilleur from Final Fantasy XIV. She's one of the companions of the PC for the last two expansions, which means she's accustomed to finding herself in the middle of all kinds of trouble, and thinks 'rest' is a four letter word. She tends to prefer to tackle problems head-on, both literally and metaphorically, and will probably get invested in the whole fixing the world thing pretty easily, in no small part because some of this is uncannily familiar. Also it's a distraction, and she misses her brother and her friends.

Feel free to add me at quantumvelvet.

[sunborne]

PG!!! It's Melly and I missed you so much. ; o ;

I'm super excited to have CR with a character of yours again...! I loved Annie and Day's CR so I'm stoked to see what could happen with Day and Alisaie.

[fjorgedinfire]

Hi hello everyone! I'm Maniette aka Rika (she/her? i don't actually care) and I'm bringing another taste of D&D madness into this hellhole 8D

Let's give a big round of applause to Fjord from Critical Role, a long-running YouTube series where a bunch of nerdy-ass voice actors sit around playing Dungeons and Dragons. Fjord is one of the players characters, created by Travis Willingham, and he's coming in from episode 47, which for the sake of the game he died during, before the episode halfway mark.

Feel free to add me on Plurk at maniette! I'm so excited aaaaaa

[notthatjason]

Hello Rika! I'm Erica and we have chatted in Discord a bit now. I am so excited for Fjord <3

I play Maes Hughes (who he threaded with -- human with magical teleportation powers he got from the previous game he was in) and Jason Grace (demigod son of Jupiter, lots of storm-based powers). I look forward to all interactions we can come up with :D

walks in late with starbucks

[nekrosmanteia]

HELLO FRIENDS this is leu, back at it again with a second OC! yeah, I can't be stopped. this one's way less of an asshole, though? that's probably a plus.

anyway this is Gregor Nothisrealname Allaine, who is a super old witch/necromancer from NYC. in his universe magic is totally a thing but most people don't know, and that's partially because he does his fuckin' job. unlike Will he is 98% chill, and he actually? likes? people? he finds everyone fascinating, basically, and is very hard to rile up.

as much as I enjoy being a shitlord with Will, I thought Gregor would be a nice contrast to mostly-negative cr LMAO. since he's an OC and you can't exactly be canon familiar with him, I have an info page for all your snoopin' needs. it has broken links, I'll fix them, I'm just tired jfdlsfj his permissions post is over here.

[sunborne]

//excitedly bangs my hands on your toplevel like a menance

OC CR! OC CR! OC CR! OC CR! OC CR!!!!!!!!

I want Day and Gregor to go COOL!! at one another because if Day found out about Gregor's abilities and stuff, he would find him so cool!!

[cained]

howdy y'all!! i'm miyou (she/her), a brand new beacon bit rolling into town with DEAN WINCHESTER from the hit show SUPERNATURAL because i finally decided to accept my true form which is a classic rock loving hunter/pie connoisseur who really wants to call bullshit on this place and get back to more important things like getting an archangel out of his head. he's seen it all folks, this ain't his first afterlife rodeo. in fact, he's pretty much dead set on figuring out what the hell this place is and how to get out of it, because that's kind of his job. there's a mystery afoot and it sure feels like another thursday night special.

that said, he's coming from 14x13 after being choked to death by a timewarped version of his best friend, but the archangel michael (who was possessing him at the time) is not actually in his head anymore ... except dean sure does think he is! we love playing with psychological trauma in this house. we also love to see the winchesters accidentally adopting children so like. everyone under 18? dean's your dad now i don't make the rules.

this is also my first game after taking a pretty long break from rp, so i'm super excited to be getting back into it with a good ole fashioned horror game. and, of course, you're all welcome to hit me up on plurk @ poohsticks or on discord @ miyou#1092 for plotting or general shenanigans if you so choose!

[notthatjason]

/sets one 16 year old monster fighting demigod child in your care/

Have fun o/

But seriously, I'm excited to have the Winchesters in this game now and I think it will be a blast. Jason doesn't get a lot of older influence in his life, so it's always fun seeing how the grownups treat him 8D especially since he usually sees himself as the big brother/responsible type.

I also have Maes Hughes. He's got a cabin full of notes and maps and things. Make friends with him and maybe he'll show you.

[piglatins]

we love a textpost meme

hi hello hola et cetera! i'm chris & very new to the game and i'm bringing in robin from stranger things season 3! for the unfamiliar she's more or less your average 80s themed seventeen year old, albeit one that's recently had to deal with secret russian torture subplots and also a sudden initiation into the 'monsters are real' club -- it's been an eventful couple of days for her. for the canon-familiar: robin's canon point is from 3x08 during the final battle at starcourt mall. very sad. she's going to be wigging out hardcore about Literally All Of This but in the mean time i'm very excited to start gathering up some cr for her.

i'm super excited to get my teeth sunk in around here so feel free to add me on plurk if i haven't already hit you up yet! it's sharknado, and i'm also over at discord at sharknado#3914 if that's more your speed.

[notthatjason]

While I haven't exactly been the best at it, it is still my big goal to have Jason establish CR with the teenagers of Beacon and especially getting in with the Stranger Things cast <3

So, expect pretty boy here to make that attempt and hopefully not further break Robin's brain with the reveal that he is a demigod who can fly and shit.

[ghostmagnet]

Hello! I'm Emily and I'm bringing in a character from a book that I love dearly - this is Cassie Palmer from the Cassandra Palmer series. Her app is here and I'm excited to throw her in here thinking she's dead. She will very much be the type to try and figure out what's going on and I'm excited to throw her into things. She's got some powers, though considering the magnitude since her job is to literally protect the timeline, a loooooooot of them have been nerfed :D

She will absolutely be exploring and pushing the limits of her powers and without the people she's used to having around to keep her from doing really stupid shit sometimes, she'll probably get herself in trouble in the first two months. On the upside, with the memshare, JUMP IN EVERYBODY, WE'RE GOING TO KING ARTHUR'S COURT TO FIGHT ARES. There will also be Vampires, Fey, or a Warmage she's really good at annoying who's actually Merlin featured in the memories.

Feel free to add me on plurk @ hoopskirts or hit me up on discord @ hoopskirts#3420

[lunchbreaks]

EMILY HELLO this is Xy/Steve at Deer I'm just going to casually collect all CR with you ok? OK

[knifecollecting]

Hellooooo, I'm Dee (she/her is fine) and I play Jo here (since the beginning). I'm on plurk at floodplain and discord as starshine#3348

Jo's a Hunter in her mid-20s who died trying to keep Lucifer from resurrecting the Four Horseman and starting the Apocalypse. (It ...might not have worked???? Who knows) She's seen some shit both back home and in Beacon, but she tries to help!

I work full-time trying to obtain paperwork for car insurance companies and on Saturdays at a testing center. I got way behind in January because STRESS but I'm getting caught up! Be gentle with me!

[sonoftenebrae]

Howdy all! I'm Liisa (she/her), bringing in Ravus from FFXV. My plurk is demonrubberducky and my discord is Lisa#9166.

Ravus is a lone wolf in recovery, but he's willing to do whatever it takes to help make this world better for his sister Luna. He's coming in with one arm missing, so he'll need a hand, literally, getting himself settled in.

[legalcy]

well howdy, look who we have here

/Enters late with Starbucks

[really_sketchy]

Hello everyone. I am a newbie and was sadly busy this weekend, so I am getting to everything now! My name is Ami and I have brought in Naminé from Kingdom Hearts. She is very sweet and I am excited for her to meet everyone. I can't wait to see how it goes :D

I seriously want her to meet everyone.

Feel free to friend me on plurk mizuyoko, I am also on Discord @ PhantomStar#1289. Naminés permissions are Here and I would love if people took the time to fill it out. I sort of rambled on because a lot of her powers are unclear in canon.

Hopefully I get everything sorted and jump on the intro post! I am excited!!!

[arsarcanum]

screams very very quietly and holds naminé's precious hands

Hi! I'm Mawi, your Sora. Welcome to the game! I think you already have the gist of his deal, so let me just double down on this welcome and reassure you that he might be a little weird but he's going to make sure that Naminé is protected and loved! Things just might be a little bumpy while he tries to get the rest of his memories out of the cosmos and figure out how old he is mentally 8u8

I'll hit up her permissions right away! Also, do you want to make our tdm canon? Sora intends to walk her very responsibly to Riku's cabin so they can get some chill time in 👀 If that doesn't work, please lmk so we can plan when to put them next to each other >)b

oh god

[forcer]

Life got in the way of me posting sooner, so here i am late to the party. I'm Kelly and this is my favorite star war, Kylo Ren. He'll be coming from the end of The Force Awakens fresh after getting his ass kicked, so he's angry and feeling like a failure. He needs a friend. Badly.

It's been a minute since i've been in a game, but I'M EXCITED!

Add me on plurk at drummingmagpie or on Discord at Kelly#3575. You can also find me on twitter at drummingmagpie, but that's mostly just me RTing memes and is in no way related to RP.

You can find my permissions post here. Please let me know if you have any questions!

/just rolled into the shop

[starless_sky]

Hey there. Do you like dorky guys? Do you also like for those dorks to be princes? How about if he's a socially awkward layabout who will choose a cat over you any day? Have I got the fantasy protagonist for you!

Hi, I am new, my name is Poshu and I am bringing the second Noctis to this game coming in after broplaints. He's a prince from Final Fantasy XV and he is coming from Zegnautus, the enemy warship from late game, he was alone when he perished and he will need to be told he is dead. He doesn't realize it.

Please, if you had CR with the other Noct you are more than welcome to come up to him expectantly and put him in an awkward position of not remembering you.

I can be reached at this journal, feel free to PM me. I am also on discord at Indolent Prince#9467.

Here is his permissions page and IC inbox.
