OOC Intro Mingle

[luminals]

Welcome to Knowhere, everyone! This post serves two purposes - to have everyone OOCly introduce themselves to everyone else and to start plotting for the game's opening event! You won't be getting a full in-depth explanation of the plot until opening day, but what's wrong with a little taste?

PLOTTING
What we can tell you is that our opening event will be a week long and during that time the network will not be available - an action based log will be up at game's opening for the length of the event. It's primarily a combat oriented event, so if you have a character who can't defend themselves it's a great time to find someone who can and become fast friends. Don't worry though, what spirals out of this will require sharp minds instead of sharp weapons.

NPCs will not be available for questioning during the event, but one or two will pop up afterwards to handle any major questions characters might have.

INTRODUCE YOURSELVES
Exactly what it says! Tell us a bit about yourselves, how to contact you, what you're interested in, who you play, and so on and so forth. Mingle and get to know each other, work out some ideas for CR, whatever!

Here's a handy textarea of stuff to copy and paste if you need a guide! All the things are optional and you don't even have to use what we've provided if you don't want to.
<b>NAME</b>: <br> <b>CHARACTER(S) PLAYED IN GAME:</b> <br> <b>CONTACT:</b> <br> <b>FANDOMS:</b> <br> <b>INTERESTS:</b> <br> <b>BRIEF SUMMARY OF CHARACTER(S):</b> <br> <b>PLOTTING:</b> <br> <b>ANYTHING ELSE:</b> <br>

Welcome and we hope you have fun!

[badnewsboy]

HI SARAH

SURE YOU CAN ADD ME loki is very fourteen year old boy and i can't tell you enough how much he just wants to attach his tiny self to a foot of a robot when he runs from the people that he accidentally or purposely crosses.

Hello everyone! I play Clara Oswald here of the Doctor Who fame. She's a spunky school teacher who travels through time and space every Wednesday with her alien best friend! She's adventurous but also has little time for bullshit and likes to get everyone up and moving! She's got the space gem with teleportation and she will be very weirded out by this stuff.

As for me, my name is Ru and I am on plurk at bowtie. My main fandoms are Doctor Who like woah, Marvel comics, DC comics, a shit load of Image comics, Game of Thrones, Mass Effect, and I am currently crying and screaming my way through Telltale's The Walking Dead. :D I mostly yell about work and cosplay and Doctor Who filming pictures.

Feel free to add me and I am pleased to meet everyone!

Hello, I'm Marie, and I currently have a migraine so I'm going to keep this brief. I'll be playing a Marvel 616, Robbie Baldwin/Speedball, aka the idiot formally known as Penance. He likes getting in over his head, his cat, and milkshakes.

I like comic books, coffee, quirky titles that never last like Pushing Daisies, Star Trek TNG, documentaries on Helvetica and fixies, scarves, and knitting. I hate DC's new 52, the Red Wings, and calamari.

Plotting is something that I would like to do. However, my head hurts, and I can think of absolutely nothing. If anyone would like to fall into a group with a goofball whose powers look like this and who probably still needs counseling, let me know.

As a heads up to those who don't know the character, I'm putting a content warning of self harm on Robbie. I have a permission posts in regards to it here, and you can find more information about it in the personality of his app. I won't be mentioning it in the intro event.

Finally, please add me on Plurk. My username is seemarierun. It's how best to get my attention, where I babble about fandom and my characters and things I would like to do.

[walkingballpit]

The group of people that will have to sit around and swap Rich Rider stories tickles me to death.

ETA: I have been told that Robbie and Roddie would get along like a house on fire.

[walkingballpit]

There is no such thing as too much hockey. Or too much Captain Kirk.

[walkingballpit]

Damiaaaan. I used to play Tim Drake at the Games. I was thisclose to apping him here, honestly.

[walkingballpit]

Ew who invited you?

<3

I want all your plots.

HI MARIE I'M RONI AND I'M PLAYING LOKI

i'm insanely excited for robbie!! \o\ sad i'm not playing aracely here but i will definitely hit you up with this small green menace.

[walkingballpit]

Ooh a Clara. She's been one of my favorite companions of the newer Doctors! I'm excited to see one here.

[walkingballpit]

Oh my god, I will hold you upside down and shake you until Aracely falls out.

Loki will do for now though. NEGL Robbie is going to be like "Aren't you supposed to be taller?"

[huitzilin]

do you really want that nothing will be quiet ever again.

loki will be justifiably offended. WHY DO PEOPLE ALWAYS SAY THAT HE'S NOT THE SAME OK

[walkingballpit]

I have read all of Scarlet Spider. I play her in another game. Yes, I really want that. You know she would love space.

Because his name is Loki? It could be a nefarious trick.

[parallels]

Aww yay. I always am so glad when other people are fond of her! I look forward to playing with you.

I FORGOT A GIF...

[parallels]

HAVE IT HERE.

[parallels]

Aww yeah Damian.

ALSO I enjoyed playing with Bones on the test drive v. much. He and Clara were adorable.

[timeywimeyorb]

OMG CLARA! I was really excited to see her in the test drive, so I'm glad you got in :D

Also, hi Ru, I'm Erica! I play Sailor Pluto/Setsuna here who is the magical girl guardian of the gates of time/space. Soooo meetings will be interesting to say the least. She gets the Soul gem.

Anyway, I will add you on plurk because why not. :3 I look forward to playing with you.

[littlecousin]

oh let's see...

Trek (TOS, TNG, & Garak basically), Star Wars, B5, SeaQuest (SHUT UP), any number of movies but especially Blade Runner/Alien(s) and Ghost in the Shell (plus the Applesed manga), the cyberpunk and New Wave movements, Golden Age SF (though that hasn't aged all that well, alas), old-school movie and newspaper serials (Flash Gordon!), the pulps (Doc Savage!), proto-SF like Verne, Wells, and Shelley...

Basically I like spaceships and cyborgs leavened with the occasional talking dolphin or experimental novel.

Hi. mO___Om

[littlecousin]

rude

i don't give my plots to rude people

[walkingballpit]

ow

That hurts.

He's going to hang out with the giant space robots then.

[littlecousin]

yeah okay robbie that should last approximately 12 seconds

Though he and Hot Rod would probably hit it off. Rodders is basically robo-Johnny Storm.

[parallels]

Hellooo!

I enjoyed Clara and Jim's thread in the test drive. I am looking forward to playing more adorable semi-flirting.

[walkingballpit]

Hey! You could at least give him a full minute.

BRB going to comment to Hot Rod.

[littlecousin]

Okay so I don't know how much Marvel you know, but Nita here is basically a Care Bear in human form and has an RP history of hitting it off brilliantly with the biggest terrorists she can accidentally find while not realizing they're mass murderers (eg Amon from Legend of Korra.) Plus she's a Soul Gem host so they're roomies.

I think this has potential.
