Potential CR Planning/ATP: August 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. Our next test drive is due to be posted tomorrow, Saturday 29th August, so look out for that!

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...

Oh my gosh hi more Daybreak people and BTVS! Hello reasons for waking up at 7 AM in the morning to watch the new episodes during the weekends. \ o /

I'm Melly and I'm playing warmheartedly aka Clara Seville, a friendly but ghostly security guard in the Redbright Institute, over at the game but I'm planning to also bring in this guy too in the next app around on the 1st! His name is Matthew Brown and he's a kind of grumpy but well meaning guy running a pub as he tries to raise his magical baby girl by himself.

If Giles been in London since birth, he could have either known the Brown family when Matthew's parents were still alive so he could be a welcome regular at the pub if you're interested in that sort of thing.

Hello! Regular at the pub would be spectacular, and I also look forward to having him meet Redbright people, because I haven't quite decided his involvement yet but what is Giles if not swarmed with teenagers, really.

That's cool to hear! It's a really nice and welcoming place for everyone of all types -- Even werewolves and vampires but they've learned long ago to not start a fight in the pub since it got blessed by a fae in the past to be neutral grounds meaning no use of magic or power there that isn't fae magic! Think of it as a power negated area.

Clara will be happy to meet up with him. She's all about defending the students and the faculty since she believes in the cause of helping everyone. It kind of helps her granddaughter, and only relative/anchor, was a student there and attends night classes at the moment after her graduation.
