OOC Intro Mingle

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.

Welcome and we hope you have fun!

HELLO KNOWHERE!!

my name is tomato, and i'm here with just annabeth chase from heroes of olympus atm! she's fresh from the end of house of hades and thus you know a survivor of tartarus, good times. she's got the reality gem with illusions! annabeth is a seventeen year old demigod daughter of athena, which makes her hella smart and kind of haughty sometimes, but she means well, really!

and she also super excellent in combat (and in possession of a sword made of bone), relevant to opening event interests?? (though side note - i'll be a little slow during the first week of the game, sigh, i'll be on vacation) but she will easily help others if needed, or team up with people to fight too! c:

pjo and orphan black are probably my biggest jams rn but i'm also a giant history nerd who wavers between modern history and ancient rome/greece (mostly rome). i read a lot of ya lit and watch a lot of tv shows with awesome ladies.

i can mostly be reached via pms, aim (TheTomatoSays) or email (il.pomodoro at yahoo) !! can't wait to begin ahhhh

I share your vacation first week of game woes. ;~; I am not canon familiar but sounds like Drift and Annabeth have swords in common! He'd also be curious about her pantheon since he's kinda into spirituality right now.

Also serious thumbs up to TV shows with awesome ladies! :D

i'll have some internet access, but lmao then i'm road tripping from colorado to new york SO IT'LL BE A BIT HARD. but oooh, she could and would easily talk about her pantheon forever (and be super biased towards her mother but you know). and her sword is actually pretty new to her, she usually carries a knife c:

give me ladies or give me death!! i always have a hard time getting into things now unless there is a strong lady presence in some capacity 8(a

I know the feeling. I'll be in the mountains with two bars of phone signal and a crowded lodge with pubic wifi as my options. I doubt that will stop me from trying though LOL!

NGL I bet Drift would be impressed with Athena. And he's is not classically trained in sword, he's more self taught, but practicing could still be a thing! He's even got a human avatar he can use. Plus his mentor Wing is here, who has LOADS of sword training.

And OH I know this feeling. I can do it if the characterizations are really good, but nothing beats great ladies. They're usually what elevates a series into the fav spot for me.

ALSO WOW HI can you tell vacation has my brain rattled? I'm Sarah by the way! XD

i'll be with friends who don't really know/do the rp thing SO YOU KNOW :'| internet stuff on the dl, which is a little harder haha

annabeth has been training for about ten years :'D she's good with most weapons, but knives are her best. she might not be so open about this right off the bat, but it could def be worked for.

yes that is mostly much me too. most of my favorite characters tend to be the ladies too B)b

LMFAO no worries!! it's nice to meet you sarah c:

Hi Tomato! As you already pointed out on plurk we are finally in a game again! I love Annabeth and I'm excited to see her here. DEMIGODS IN SPACE.

Otherwise, it should be fun/hilarious to introduce Annabeth to a magical girl named for the god of the underworld |D I bet Annabeth and Setsuna will get along well.

awww yes hello hello! DEMIGODS IN SPACE is not something i've tried before i am excited c:

but yes yes i'd love to see what happens if we threw them at each other. SAILOR PLUTO??? (whispers the greeks are better in her ear, i mean what) though she'd probably think them all awesome for what they do

It shall be arranged then. o/ Setsuna will be so fascinated in the whole Greek gods and demigods thing.

excellent!! i look forward to this c: i'm sure we'll both be around on the intro log, but there will definitely be plotting later too c:

Yes to both. After all, Setsuna will be looking for answers to all of this nonsense and I'm sure if nothing else if Annabeth does the same they'll end up crossing paths that way :D

fun fact: i was actually on my way to yell at you to intro if you hadn't already because how am i supposed to RUIN YOUR LIFE otherwise

hi
we clearly don't know each other at all

ur a butt

yeah but you love me anyway

also you still need to tell me if you're staying in my city or driving through or what

i guess so SIGH but at least you admitted it

i have not told you because i do not know if we're staying yet but i'm like 90% sure we're stopping/driving through it either way

i am 100% unable to deny any petty accusations made against my character while in this account because it feels wrong

so have a really sad icon LOOK AT HIS SAD FACE LOOK AT IT, COMRADE

s2g if you text me the day of i will strangle you when i see you

We are getting a lot of historians up in here. Nice to meet you, Tomato!

Not sure what these two have in common, but he will think the whole being demigod thing is insanely cool. Also swords. Who doesn't love swords.

AS WE SHOULD historians are the best. what's your favorite area/era?? c:

swords made of drakon bone!! giant dragon monsters, that sounds right up newt's alley tbh

Britain! And the American War for Independence. I have a weakness for modern history too, tho.

DANG RIGHT. They can bond over huge monsters and wicked sword fights.

i took some colonial america classes! but britain in the second world war is one of my favorite things too. (the spanish civil war is probably my favorite of 20th century europe related things tho)

let her tell you about all the goddamn monsters she's killed THE LIST GOES ON FOREVER MAN

hi i'm roni, i play loki and i'm pretty sure that they're roomies and I AM SO SORRY KIND OF.

ALSO SUPEREXCITED HI.

LMAO HI THERE. for a while i was like oh i guess annabeth is the only reality gem so far huh

i only know kid loki stuff via osmosis LMFAO but annabeth will not put up with any of his shit whoops. though her room is yellow 03?? i can't tell if they're actual roomies yet or not :|a but either way

HELLO HELLO ALL THE EXCITEMENT

Edited (no italics ) 2014-06-22 01:45 (UTC)

YOU'RE ABOUT TO GET SO MUCH MORE

sorry about all the shit that will probably come from his mouth, annabeth, bring that hammer down.

yeah he's yellow 13, i'm pretty sure that they're in the general vicinity from what i got from the housing page. i could be flying off base and be embarrassed later, whoops. (⊙‿⊙✿)

(being in the same vicinity is enough.)

she would not hesitate to use an actual hammer either tbh

patiently waits for housing list to go up but lmfao yesss even general vicinity is enough, esp if they're the only two in the yellow barracks as of now. it'd be hard to not run into each other

she deals with enough gods, keep dumb norse tricksters away

i was thinking if they were the only two there that it would turn into a terrible travesty.

you don't want to know the things he'll bring back. his room is like where books go to die.

sorry annabeth, you can't escape.
