[June] 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!

PLAYER: Riddle
CHARACTER(S): Aragorn II Elessar, Vanyel Ashkevron and Kikyo.
WHO ARE THEY?: Aragorn has been King of Gondor (a realm of Men in Middle Earth) for a year. He is fluent in Sindarin Elvish, knows some Dwarvish and is a skilled Healer. Through his connection with Elros (a distant, distant ancestor), he does have a little Elven blood in him, which makes him look much younger than his actual age (he is 90). (In reality, he will live for another 120 years or so and he will choose when he passes from the world.)

Vanyel is a Herald-Mage from Valdemar. He served the King there for many years and he has a turbulent past (which includes things like questions about sexuality, rape and mental abuse). However he died before arriving in RC when he faced an army of Dark Mages by himself. (To give you an idea of his power - none of them survived.)

And, lastly, Kikyo is a Miko/Priestess hailing from the Feudal Era in Japan. She existed in a sham of a body after being resurrected by an Ogress, but RC has fixed that. (Though she still recalls dying twice.) She is a master archer, a healer and she possess many spiritual powers.

CURRENTLY: Aragorn is trying to keep an eye on the Elves. He spends much of his time watching the network, wandering the forest and ensuring he is stocked with healing herbs. He has also taken up caring for the horses in the stable. Those he is around frequently usually have pointed ears, but he has grown to care greatly for many others in the city.

Vanyel is making a lute and brushing up on his musical gifts. He is frequently followed around by a pet Peacock named Ashke. Life is much, much simpler for him and he is grateful for it.

Kikyo tends to keep to herself - particularly when she is hunting monsters (mainly in the park). But she is friendly and she genuinely cares for the well-being of all.

CR YOU'D LIKE: Friends/Foes are welcome for all of them. I would like for Vanyel and Kikyo to develop comfortable (or maybe even affectionate) relationships with other people. It would do them good.

CR YOU WOULD NOT LIKE: I can't think of any. I mean if I don't like where something is headed, I'll poke you and we can figure it out. :)

ANYTHING ELSE?
