Heya! I'm RC (she/her but I'm not particular re: pronouns tbh) and I play the above Shadow Moon from the Starz tv series American Gods, both of us are new around here. Feel free to contact me via a journal PM or [plurk.com profile] rhematic1

Shadow is arriving in Beacon with CRAU from Deerington after the end of season 2. So in a series of events, he escaped getting captured by police then ends up avoiding death repeatedly in another world only to end up dying and showing up in the afterlife. His life hasn't been easy but he manages to find the good and beauty in things. Thanks to the trip to Deerington, he's not as hung up on his unfaithful ex... much to the dismay of Jessica Jones who he arrived to Deerington with and has subsequently kept an eye on her like a lost puppy.

That said, Shadow is an easy going and patient type. He's a good listener who likes to help others but he isn't a saint and has been a thief, conman and convict. He isn't afraid to fight should the occasion call for it. Yet violence isn't what he resorts to. Shadow has to be pushed whether a cutting mark about someone he cares about or physically attacked first. He does stay fit but also likes to read. He's not exactly an extravert yet can easily start up a conversation with others.

Alright, I suck at these things so feel free to poke through his journal and ask me any questions. I don't know a lot of canons here but some of the best CR that I've had have been crosscanon. Love the theme to the game and look forward to torturing Shadow here with the others.

Hiya, welcome! I am... halfway familiar with Shadow :D I read the book but never saw the show. He's gonna be fun to have around!

I'm Gail! I play this dude here, a former brainwashed assassin who is slowly getting better, and also a very old shapeshifting dragon alien named Stone. Happy to throw either one at your boy :3
curious_spirit: (wide smile)

[personal profile] curious_spirit 2020-09-01 04:53 am (UTC)(link)
Hi, Gail! I really need to read the book. I've got friends who have and the comparisons are sometimes hilarious. Please be warned, Shadow tv series tends to use language a LOT more than what I hear the book did/does...



/cue Steve Rogers warning 'Language' here

I am familiar with MCU and have a lot of love for your dude kind of like this. xD

Also, love me some dragons so that sound is me squeeing over here!

Oh trust me, my boy cusses a lot XD (And my headcanon was "language" was a joke because of just how much ALL the Howlies swore... I mean it was WW2 and they were in the army :B )

Also that was hilarious thank you for sharing that, I love it XD

For reference, Stone is the big dude in this picture. Only that is not to scale. He is in fact bigger. Enjoy having a dragon flying around Beacon :D

I actually had a Gabe for a little while but grandson Trip for a LONG time and completely agree with your headcanon. ♥

Aww he's like a grown up, grumpy Toothless lol! Forgive me, Stone! xD

Shadow will be in awe...and hope he doesn't get eaten or set on fire.

Hey there, welcome! I'm so excited to have Shadow (and you!) joining us. I read the book ages ago, forgot most of it, but then have loved what I've seen of the show so far, which is most of season one. Need to get back on that, haha.

I'm Lauren, I'm on the mod team, and I play Rosinante here from One Piece as well as Clara the NPC torch inventory bot. Rosi is a seasoned veteran of Beacon having turned up on day 1, and Clara is... well, she's less useful than she looks like she should be but she loves to try to help, so feel free to have Shadow bother either one of them!
curious_spirit: (chipper with beer)

[personal profile] curious_spirit 2020-09-02 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
Hi, Lauren! Thanks for the warm welcome! ♥

Sadly, I'm mostly canon blind to Rosi. I say mostly because I've got 2 good friends who are very into One Piece. So I'll probably pay a little closer attention now when they go on about the series, lol

Shadow is a bit reserved but impartial on who he talks to. I look forward to him crossing paths with your two!

Hey hi hello. I'm Pink (she/her), a kind of not really returning player seeing as I never IC intro'd the last time I was here. This time will be different! But no sweat if you'd rather wait for me to come to you. With that out of the way, I'm bringing in Jessica Jones (Netflix Marvel) as a CRAU matching up with Shadow above. Her canon point is after Defenders, right at the start of Jessica Jones season two.

In Deerington, Jess worked as hospital security and a freelance P.I. She's arriving with a camera full of dirty secrets that are now totally useless. She has super strength and a drinking problem (the problem is that there isn't a frickin' drink in her hand) and is very much the sour to Shadow's sweet, but cares about people deep diddly down.

Feel free to opt-out of interactions with her on her journal's HMD, comments screened. Permissions and content warnings are linked within the post as well. I look forward to getting off the ground here, for real this time, and playing with whoever will have me! May your day be cool beans.

[personal profile] callada 2020-09-02 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
Hey, welcome back! I'm so pleased you've decided to return and I'm really looking forward to seeing you and Jessica around. She's even one of the MCU characters I actually know! The Netflix adaptation is seriously good stuff.

I'm Lauren, since I don't think (?) I really got to say hi before. I'm on the mod team, and I've got Rosinante here who is too tall and too clumsy and a genuine sweetheart, and then Clara who is the robot who wants to make sure all of her friends have lots of torches. You exist? You're one of her friends now congratulations.

See you around!

Hi Lauren! Thank you for taking me back and especially thank you for keeping the game going as a group PSL! I love the premise and setting so much.

In Jess's other game she spends a lot of time tearing apart robots. What a twist that this one she'll want to protect with her eternal soul.

wb! I confess to not knowing...anything...ever...comics or adjacent but. Cao Pi will help her with that drinking problem. He now has a magic bottomless bottle of wine. You're welcome, Jessica.

She's extremely welcome, thank you. They'll have to work out a shared custody schedule.
