Player Plotting Post!

[shadowmarionette]

It's about time for a PPP! What is that, one might ask?

Player Plotting Posts are a good chance for people to plan meetings with other characters, to just get filled in on what's going on with other people in the game, or to figure out player-driven plots with other people.

Respond to this thread with the following information, and be sure to go through and look at other people's posts! Try to respond to one or two characters you haven't had a chance to interact with! It's a great chance for new CR. We've still got a day of CoS/ToS Cross over, so throw that in there too, if you like!

For your convenience, you can just fill in the following information:

<b>Character Name:</b> <b>Canon:</b> <b>Character’s Current Job/Responsibility:</b> <b>About the Character:</b> This can include what's happening in-game with your character right now, or any relevant information people should know (such as "my character is a cannibal and will probably try to eat yours" or anything else relevant) <b>What I'm Looking For:</b> This can be general or a good place to get the word out about plots you have in mind ("I'd like my character to make new friends" or "my character is a cannibal who is looking for people to eat, would yours be interested?" etc. this is also a place to plan for current or upcoming events.

I would also like to encourage and remind players that you can help this place stay interesting by giving us your ideas and plotting ports for the ship to come to. Let us see your world and maybe we'll all have a little fun while we're at it! If you need the FAQ, it can be found here. As always, suggestions to the Mods are welcomed.

Character Name: Dorian Carver
Canon: Vampire The Masquerade
Character’s Current Job/Responsibility: Member of the now debunk council.
About the Character: Dorian is spazz of a vampire. He loves to make people laugh and have a good time. He is also prone to HUGE fits of misery and self doubt. He is manic depressive by curse of blood with mild Schizophrenia. Again, caused by blood, Malkavians are uncurable. He's been in a relationship with Sarah Jane Smith since day 200, but will soon have to deal with her loss. He's not going to react well. Likely think she was left behind in the City of Sin
What I'm Looking For: Dorian needs to touch base with his remaining CR, some people he is avoiding just to ease the pain of them leaving and returning 'wrong' but otherwise I am open to everything new and old.

[prefers_magneto]

Character Name: Erik 'Magneto' Lehnsherr
Canon: X-Men: First Class
Character’s Current Job/Responsibility: Member of the justice council thing; self-appointed monitor of vampire-related violence; leader of a little protoBrotherhood of powered individuals; general grumpy pain in the ass.
About the Character: Can manipulate metal and has traded metalcraft for goods/services/cash in various ports and on board ship. He's in a relationship with Raven Darkholme and his closest friend on board is Charles Xavier. When things are going badly, he's looking to protect those two and the people in his little powered beings group.
What I'm Looking For: I'm open to things. Please give me some suggestions! I think I would def like to do more with the protoBrotherhood and I would like to expand his CR. I think I would also like to see him talked into using his power for something that benefits the whole group.

[master_kenobi]

Character Name: Obi-Wan Kenobi
Canon: Star Wars: Episode II
Character’s Current Job/Responsibility: Obi-Wan is part of the justice council and was part of an earlier version of the council too.
About the Character: Obi-Wan is a Jedi who has various powers such as mild telepathy, telekinesis etc. He's decidedly *not* in a relationship with Siri Tachi because those are forbidden. He lost his best friend to the walls of the ship a little while ago.
What I'm Looking For: I'm kind of rudderless with Obi-Wan so I'm looking for anything that helps him feel productive and starts regrowing his old CR and creating new CR. I've been slow overall and he's suffered the most from it.

Character Name: Joan Campbell
Canon: Covert Affairs
Character’s Current Job/Responsibility: She was helping Ben set up the court system, but now... research?
About the Character: Joan is a spy, and even though she's not at home that doesn't mean she isn't working as one. She's been gathering intelligence on the candidates, Nysgods, and anything else she can. She's also a drug addict that's only been clean for a little while. It would be very easy for her to slip back.
What I'm Looking For: I'd love to try and set up some docking even with Joan's world, but I'm guessing it might need to be a hodge-podge of someone else's too maybe because... she's a normal human. I'd really like her to get more involved in the politics with the Nysgods, but given the situation there's not much that can happen with that. Of course anything else works too!

Character Name: Martha Jones
Canon: Doctor Who
Character’s Current Job/Responsibility: None
About the Character: Unlike her previous reiteration, this Martha is not practicing medicine anymore. Her values have changed a bit from where they were before, and she doesn't remember anyone on the ship. She's married back home, and Martha actually loves the guy, so she's doing a decent job of staying faithful. At least she was until they landed in teh City of Sin.
What I'm Looking For: Well, Martha's main friend this time around was SJ. She was planning on talking about what happened in CoS and the like. So she's going to be a bit cut up about SJ disappearing. I'd also love it if someone noticed her Walk of Shame, only that someone would have to have some sort of power to sense either thoughts or scents because she's not going to broadcast it to anyone. Martha also needs to make some new friends. I've been wary of plotting and more of just throwing her into various threads to see what sticks. I'm not a huge fan of saying, "Hey our characters should be friends/lovers etc." and then forcing it to work when it otherwise might not have. But she does need friends now that SJ is gone.

Character Name: Mary Shannon
Canon: In Plain Sight
Character’s Current Job/Responsibility: Being a pain, she takes that responsibility very seriously
About the Character: Mary is a sarcastic pain in the ass on the outside... and in the middle layer. Nobody has really dug deep enough with her to realize that she is not as rock solid as she appears. She also loves food and shooting things, and since those aren't overly available on the ship she's getting a little bored out of her mind.
What I'm Looking For: ANYTHING! No, really. She lost a lot of her close CR recently and she never had much to begin with (she doesn't make friends easily even in canon). Can you deal with a bitchy friend long enough to realize she's not bitchy in truth? Want to be annoyed? Want a buddy to cause amusing havoc on the ship just for kicks and giggles? She's your girl.

Character Name: Devon Darconin
Canon: Original Character
Character’s Current Job/Responsibility: None
About the Character: Devon is a blind mage that specializes in using the elements. He loves playing with his magic and can pretty much be found doing that all of the time. Except after he returns from the CoS. He got hit by wrath and hurt people. That's going to leave a major mark on him, and he'll be hiding out in his room for a long, long time.
What I'm Looking For: Anyone who might want to get in a fight with him in CoS before the plot ends would be all kinds of loved. Once he gets over what happened, I want to have him accidentally annoy everyone on the ship with one of his experiments since he wants to create the right sound for a wolf howl. Anyone is welcomed to yell at him or kick his butt over that one. Generally anything else too.

[lookingforhope]

Character Name: Charles Xavier
Canon: X-Men: Days of Future Past
Character’s Current Job/Responsibility: None
About the Character: Charles is a telepath with the capability to read minds, astral project, cast illusions, and mentally absorb information such as languages. At current, he is working through all the challenges of regaining control of his ability, losing his legs, and getting past his fear of history repeating itself here in the game with Erik and Raven particularly. He is also trying to fix relationship things with Draco.
What I'm Looking For: I've pretty much put him through the wringer these past few months and would like to draw away from that. Looking for new CR always! But also wanting to strengthen current friendships. I'd also like to focus on having him help people however he can, while getting his Professor on, too, with doing some teaching in the various science fields he's expert in.

[ka_mai]

Bert's going to be stepping up to try and take over for Ben, if you'd like to continue with the court idea? He'd be all over that.

[ka_mai]

Bert's going to be stepping up to try and take over for Ben! He wants to continue everything Ben set up, so he'll be addressing the council thing after his talk with Pasha.

[somepartsbroken]

Just keep me informed <3

[ka_mai]

Character Name: Cuthbert 'Bert' Allgood
Canon: The Dark Tower
Character’s Current Job/Responsibility: Livestock and council
About the Character: Bert's a gunslinger from Arthurian cowboy world, a survivalist, a diplomat, etc. He's an honest and honorable man, though his code of honor is still heavily influenced by his upbringing. He's also prone to bad jokes.
What I'm Looking For: He's going to be stepping up to try and keep all the things Ben started going, after he talks with Pasha - that thread is happening now - so that's a big thing. Other than that, he's mostly just tending the animals and quietly keeping an eye on things and talking to people to see what major, addressable concerns people have. I'd love to keep up with that! Always up for new CR. He's also in a weird place where for the first time in his life, he doesn't have someone to defer to, so he's going to be latching on to people. :D

[ka_mai]

Oh yes, there shall be plenty of messages for all involved once the IC stuff starts happening! :D

[alphaophiuchi]

Character Name: Draco Malfoy
Canon: Harry Potter
Character’s Current Job/Responsibility: Member of the council; Official Greeter of Newbies; unofficial collector of metaplot information
About the Character: Draco is a wizard, and a relatively snotty one at that. Though he's worked on being slightly less callous and pompous, remarks slip out every now and then. He tends to say things without thinking about them, and also tends to sort of look down upon people for various reasons without thinking about that. He's also keeping himself busy with a notebook collecting all the information about the Nysgods that he can possibly find, and working to quietly fix his relationship with Charles Xavier. Most of his close friends are Muggles, and he tries not to think about that.
What I'm Looking For: More new CR is always welcomed! Most of his older CR is pretty well in place, but I would love to do something with Draco that ends up really messing with things somehow. Something that maybe puts him through the ringer and forces him to deal with some of his past issues. Otherwise, I'm generally open to anything and everything!

I'm also thinking about potentially having a docking event set in Diagon Alley that I've heard positive feedback about but people are welcome to tell me 'no, Momo, you have done too many of these already'.

[katerrifically]

Oh, Dorian. :(

[katerrifically]

Charles, you will walk again.

[katerrifically]

Diagon Alley would be good.

[katerrifically]

Hey~

[solus_unus]

Character Name: Caius Vitale (OC)
Canon: Highlander
Character’s Current Job/Responsibility: None.
About the Character: A 1,926 year old Immortal. Generally happy-go-lucky. Currently he is happily for now in a relationship with Devi D, and teaching Lydia some self defense. Not doing too much otherwise.
What I'm Looking For: I'd like fresh CR for him. He's a fun dude! A bit mouthy, but fun! I'd love for him to get involved in a player plot, or two.

[alphaophiuchi]

Thanks :D

[alphaophiuchi]

The moment Draco catches wind of Bert trying to keep the council up, he's going to quietly encourage him so hard.

[punch_it]

We need these two to do something. The universe is crying because we haven't done so yet.

[fivethreestrawberryblonde]

Character Name: Lydia Martin
Canon: Teen Wolf
Character’s Current Job/Responsibility: None
About the Character: Lydia is a (secret) banshee with the ability to basically burst everyone's eardrums if she really wants to. She's very much a Queen Bee type who flourishes as the centre of attention, but has recently been pulling into the background. She's very loyal, often to a fault, and most of her friends tend to describe her as having few survival instincts. She's recently been learning self-defence from a number of people, including but not limited to Caius, Erik, and Blaine. Her closest friend is Kurt Hummel, and though she was in a relationship with Scott McCall, he may be disappearing when the Egime leaves port.
What I'm Looking For: I'd love to get her out there and forming new CR. She's going to be very much in a state of uncertainty and limbo, due to losing everyone from her world, and will likely be making some bad decisions. This may involve getting involved with some things and people she'd probably be better off not getting involved with, and as long as she can't tell they're 'the bad guys', so to speak, it'd be easy to get her in there. Otherwise, I'm open to everything.

[punch_it]

Character Name: Jane Kirk
Canon: Star Trek AOS
Character’s Current Job/Responsibility: Destroying things under the guise of good intentions? Also the council
About the Character: my character is a nymphomaniac and will try to eat yours out Jane is currently suffering from home ship sickness and doesn't seem to really know what she's doing and it's making her a little...more manic than normal. She's currently in a steady if not utterly confusing emotionally relationship with Nick Rush and Gaila and this week all her friends list their significant others and she might bite your head off if you do stupid shit and try to involve them.
What I'm Looking For: Jane needs more friends and maybe some direction. She's weirdly good at taking charge but on the day to day she has no clue what she ought to be doing. AlsoifClaireandBreeareintoitaStarTrekdockingeventneedstohappen.

[katerrifically]

Character Name: Kate Cordello
Canon: Marvel Comics, pre M-Day mutant
Character’s Current Job/Responsibility: Unofficial cook, unofficial busybody, and semi-official cooking instructor.
About the Character: Kate is a mutant with a healing factor and she can also let people 'borrow' said healing factor.
What I'm Looking For: I have had the realization that Erik speaks to Kate like she thinks about everyone else. Charles is going to tell her. Then she's going to ask for confirmation and distractions from that thought. :X
