Potential CR Planning/ATP: July 2015

Potential CR Planning

Thinking of joining the Underground? Come tell us all about it. This post is for prospective players to discuss their characters' AU backgrounds with canonmates and other characters, and to establish pre-existing CR (character relations). The aim is to help you figure out what to write in the background section of your application and to give you a starting point for building CR when you join the game.

You can use this post to:

• Share your ideas on how you'd like to adapt your character's background to the game.
• Ask questions and request feedback on your AU plans.
• Discuss potential shared history with canonmates and build in cross-canon CR.

Please note that nothing discussed here is guaranteed, since not all prospective players will submit an app or be accepted into the game, while others will app without having commented to this post. After the next round of applications have been processed, there will be a follow-up CR planning post for accepted players to confirm initial plans, make changes, and look for new CR.

This post is intended to be an open discussion between current and prospective players, but I'm happy to answer any mod questions you might have too. Oh, and feel free to jump into our latest test drive meme!

For current players
Are there any characters that you'd love to see in the game? Post your requests here! I'll add them to the ATP advert, and who knows, they might inspire someone...

You'll have to show me the ways of the Plurk when I swing by your place tomorrow. I should probably go to bed as well since my brains are beyond mush.

So are the Hunters dispersed amongst different factions then? I read the factions part multiple times, and I guess I'm just confused since the rules say I must join a faction, but there's really no place for humans that is being specifically mentioned other than being a vampire's chew toy. Everything else seems reserved for meta-humans. This is where the confusion is setting in for me at the moment.

I wanted to go the hunter route, but it appears they're not even listed or explained. So who would give orders, and how would I go about this whole business?

You'll probably just tell me tomorrow when I visit you. But at least you have something to read. XD

The Hillingdon clan has the hunters. Sorry I just didn't put it all together till after sleep. There's no real leader but they help outcasts and people fleeing from supernatural problems so there's no reason they shouldn't help a rouge military guy. They're not really run by anyone but they have a mentor thing going on. Hunters are Level 2. There's NPC clan leaders that are shape shifters. As well as some unknown faction leader. So that's who would have worked with Jensen's boss to place him there. Might be interesting if the bad guy from your series made a deal with a fae to keep himself hidden.

That's kind of what I was thinking as far as set-up was concerned for Max. That way it gives Jensen a legit reason for being there. I doubt others will app this movie, but if by some chance they do then that would be awesome.

This info will help me as I'm working through the application.

Thanks hun!
