Potential CR Planning: Pre-game

Potential CR Planning

Hello! This post is for all 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 first application round, 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 prospective players, but I'm happy to answer any mod questions you might have too. Happy planning!

Re: QUESTIONS

[torestoreorder]

Hey! Gosh I'm so excited for this game but I have some questions! 1) Would it be possible for a meta human to have a fae child, assuming their meta comes from fae blood? Can the power grow with generations? Or would it be necessary for the child to be kidnapped and come back a changeling?

Secondly, on the apps, I'm a little confused by what you mean when you say role. So for instance, this guy here is a CEO of a big company, and I'd like to throw the company into the mix here. Would that be something to write down in role? Or is it limited only to the factions and such?

Hello!

1) Yes, if the other parent was fae or part-fae, or if the child was born in the Other Realm. It's more likely that power would dilute over generations if those generations are human.

2) The role section is primarily to say which faction(s) your character might be affiliated with and how you see them fitting into those factions. But you can also include what else your character does outside of their faction! So yes, your character being a CEO would be relevant to mention. That's why the application guide asks what your character does for a living – it's about figuring out where they are within the setting as a whole.

Didn't even realize I switched in number systems half way through. That's what I get for asking on my phone. But thank you!
