[December] CR/Plotting/Handwaving Meme

[rubycitymods]

Time for another of these! You all know what to do by now, and we all love some good CR, don't we? You can either ask for/offer CR you'd like to play out... Or you can discuss what may or may not already have happened!

INSTRUCTIONS

♥ Post with your characters, one per comment or a catch-all. If you have any CR in particular you'd like to rally, mention it here!

♣ Go around to other characters and discuss ways your characters may have interacted in handwaved settings. This could be casual meetings at the pub, patrols they may have gone on together, hikes and explorations, or just whatever strikes your fancy!

♦ Come up with some backstory for friendships that might not have gotten played out as fully as you'd have liked. These guys are trapped on a floating island together, 24/7... You know they bump into each other! New CR is highly encouraged - you never know what might happen.

♠ Have fun!

<b>PLAYER:</b> <b>CHARACTER(S):</b> <b>CURRENTLY:</b> (What are they up to? It may help others to know where your character usually hangs out or what they're spending their time doing.) <b>CR YOU'D LIKE:</b> <b>CR YOU WOULD <u>NOT</u> LIKE:</b> <b>ANYTHING ELSE?</b>

Did you say honorable woobies and magic users? How about a demon sorcerer who tends to get stuck as the buttmonkey in his canon?

[metaphorical_snakes]

How does the demon sorcerer feel about behavion dishonorably during duels, hitting below the belt, or children?

[superstylishsquid]

Hates, hates and adores. He's all about fair play/warrior's pride and can't resist looking out for kids.

[metaphorical_snakes]

I think this could be the start of a beautiful friendship.

[superstylishsquid]

How does the zombie feel about sword fights and wordplay?

[metaphorical_snakes]

He's a mage more than a swordfighter, and his weapon of choice is a quarterstaff.

But wordplay is good yes.

[superstylishsquid]

Alastor prefers swords, but he can respect other weapons too. And, of course, magic is a weapon in and of itself.

Hopefully he won't cringe too much at Alastor's bad puns.

[metaphorical_snakes]

He might applaud them! Or he might whack him on the head.

It depends on how bad.

[superstylishsquid]

...Context: the hero had just defeated a pair of pigment stealing enemies. Alastor's comment: you showed your true colors today.

[metaphorical_snakes]

Well, if nothing else I want to whack him on the head. But Duane would probably laugh.

[superstylishsquid]

Yeaaaaah, he thinks he's clever. Obviously, he doesn't often find people who agree. He'd enjoy having someone around who appreciates his jokes, though.
