Additional Info: EST who lives bizarre and inconsistent hours, medium to slow tagger depending on the workload of the day. 3 jobs and thesis writing can knock ya down but I'm backtag city so just give me a poke and I can return to finish any scene, no matter how old. I’m a very recent IJ convert so pls excuse my many faux-pas as I get used to this server (and panfans in general, oops).


CHARACTERCharacter Name: Daryl Dixon
Canon: The Walking Dead
Journal: dadyl

About Them: Daryl has just started down the road to the major character changes he goes through when he suddenly finds people relying on him and finally begins to develop positive human connections (the great thing about this is I could see his canon progress being imitated by his game development, as he will be going through ‘similar’ life changes that will coincide well with his canon updates).

Previously an angry, violently explosive, transient, racist loner, all thanks to the way he was raised, Daryl has just started to calm down and begin navigating the social role he develops when he’s part of a group. All of his outer grouchy, hardass shell is hiding a deep well of sensitivity, compassion, and the need to belong to a ‘family’ that cares about him, but he’s been under the impression for his entire life that those parts of his personality make him weak and should be reviled, so he’s not comfortable showing them. Definitely the strong silent type (except when he’s being a jerk), Daryl is a natural and instinctive protector since it’s the easiest way for him to show his compassion for others while still being actively violent and brutal. He’s adaptive and knows how to survive no matter what situation he finds himself in, and much like his older brother, “if you feed him a hammer he’d crap out nails” – unless you feed him an emotional hammer, in which case he’ll just cry a lot, sensitive bastard that he is. He has a lot of self-hate getting in his way and is a better follower than a leader, but the rest of his info can be found here if you’d like to read about this trainwreck of a man.

Daryl also suffered from extreme abuse and neglect growing up that has greatly shaped how damaged and emotionally closed-off he is, so please please let me know if this is not something you want to engage with and I’ll either do my best to write around explicit mentions of it (and no hard feelings if you want to sidestep Daryl completely! He is definitely not the easy-fun type unless killing a bunch of monsters together is your jam).

Notable CR: Brand new, although Jesse was the first interaction he's had that's stuck (from the TDM, they had a hilarious argument about whether zombies are real and Jesse settled on the conclusion that Daryl is just high as shit) and they’ll be rooming in a (hopefully ridiculous) house together. Get ready for the clash.

Current Plans: No big plans beyond settling in and braving the storm! (Well actually, the Love event promises to be very interesting for this closed-off s.o.b., so that actually might be a great time to make real connections with Daryl!) While he will have some difficulty coming to terms with the fact that he’s on an alien fucking planet with gods fucking about, he also comes from a world with a zombie apocalypse going on and believes he saw a chupacabra even before the end of the world, so he’ll be able to accept what he sees as he sees it. He’s action-based though, so if you tell him ridiculous things he’ll probably just scoff until he runs into the 12-foot monster you just told him about. Whoops.

CR you're looking for: SO MANY SPECIFIC REQUESTS! Daryl grew up without the typical, nurturing family dynamic he hasn’t realized he’s always been craving, so characters/CR that fit into the following categories are very deeply desired (extended from his permissions post, which is a must-read for playing with Daryl comfortably) —
→ an older brother-figure [Rick] someone good and lawful and inspiring to look up to in place of what Merle gave him, someone who makes him a better person by living the example.
→ a mother-figure [Carol] someone who he can work to make proud of him in a way he was never given the opportunity to as a child, but who still provides unconditional love and understanding no matter how often he tries and fails to do so.
→ a father-figure [Hershel] someone old and wise and kind, who seems to understand the world in a way Daryl can only aspire to, whom he trusts has only the best in his heart for the world and everyone in it.
→ a sister-figure [Beth] someone who can occasionally bring out the worst in him but whose goodness and gentleness he’s determined to protect and help maintain, no matter what the world throws at her.
→ a nephew/younger brother [Carl] someone whose inner bravery and hardness he notices is similar to his own at that age, which he both wants to nurture the positives of while keeping him from becoming just as broken as Daryl.

If your character fits into none of these roles, no problem! Daryl thrives as part of a group (or more accurately, he does moderately well with others and prefers to stay on the edges of it) and is desperately in need of friends, love, affection and understanding, even if he fights it.

Notes:

[dadyl]

Hello!! I'm new here, but Daryl's whole thing right now is protecting kids in apocalypses, so while she might not need his help, I'm sure their CR could be really interesting!

[thelastjoy]

Hey, welcome and hope you're enjoying the game so far! I'd love to have them meet. Girl always needs to hang out more folks familiar with the apocalypse. Come commiserate with her about how all these city folks just don't get it. Girl definitely doesn't think she needs much protecting (her crew may disagree) but she I think they'd definitely still get along. Do you have anything particular in mind for them meeting Or would you like to wing it and just have them run into each other on the island?

[soldier_blade]

When this is all over, Sonya and Jill need to do some bonding/undwinding/ mutual 'how the fuck does this usually happen' sort of complaining.

[traitory]

Yes good. Please torment him and make his life miserable.

[traitory]

Oh no I'm totally cool with more tags! So whenever you get a chance just throw your good, pure, droid at my evil one.

[thelastjoy]

We can do it when the storm ends, sure! I'll keep an eye out if you end up doing a log? Or just let me know. I agree, I think they're different takes on issues could lead to something interesting once they met. And he's from a far more "normal" world than most people she's met, so that contrast could be interesting too.

[01101110]

PLAYERYour name: Rae
Contact Info: plurk (raelet)

CHARACTERCharacter Name: Sorrow

About Them: A Null who was abandoned and presumed dead during the battle in Arc 2. They then developed emotion due to proximity with the gods and have been hiding from them ever since, while popping on the network every once in awhile to remind folks that it's still there. Cute and possibly the being that will bring death to everyone. Yay!
Current Plans: Hoping that everyone liked finding the fragments!

Contact Info: Plurk: Rschwartz501, Discord: Rschwartz501#6755

Additional Info: Timezone is EST. My job hours are mid morning to evening and as I'm in multiple games I'm not really that quick with responses. If I miss your tag by a day or two, please bear with me, but if I go a week without responding, let me know by either plurk, email or PM. Sometimes tags get lost or I'm too mentally/emotionally dead to get to many tags at once.

I still love all of you!

CHARACTERCharacter Name: Sonya Blade
Canon: Mortal Kombat
Journal: soldier_blade

About Them: Sonya is a Special Forces army officer, and one of the few warriors deemed worthy by the gods to defend Earthrealm. She's survived the death-match martial tournament, being trapped in an enemy realm, and is one of the few Chosen warriors who survived after the end of the Outworld invasion. Thanks to these experiences, she's not the easiest or warmest people to get along with, but she doesn't go entirely out of her way to push people away either; more, she's;s pragmatic and prefers to keep a professional demeanor. Having very view friends outside the force, those she does keep in contact with are almost treated like family; any loss or pain they feel, she takes it on herself and does what she can to try and offer relief-or at the very least will ask who's ass she needs to kick.

Though never outright in canon, there are hints that Sonya's developed Survivors Guilt after the Outworld invasion, taking the form of vivid nightmares, insomnia, stress headaches and the constant guilt of wondering why she was one of the few lucky ones. Years in the military will mean she rarely speaks of her traumas, seeing it as pointless, and almost a weakness.

A member of the special forces, Sonya's seen her fair share of combat (and loss), and earned a number of physical scars in the process. Her right leg is covered in old burn scars from an ambush in a raid, while her left shoulder bears both an old stab wound (once more a lucky shot) as well as what look like laser burns from those who know what to look for. Most of Sonya's clothing is in the form of pants and shirts with sleeves, so unless she's dressing up or down for something, it's unlikely they'll be in plain view.

Notable CR: Fellow Guardsmen, Margery Tyrell, Daenerys Targaryn,Eleven, Jill Valentine, Floki
Current Plans:
On a boat with Floki and the others, searching and exploring the islands. She's going to take a small 'self imposed' break once they return, and hopefully some extended CR afterwards.

CR you're looking for: Guardsmen, other military, people used to dealing with other-world forces. She needs actual friends/people to bond with..possible a near-casual relationship?

With Henry Percy gone, she needs another instructor to teach her the sword and shield. Also hobbies, Sonya at some point needs to learn it's okay to enjoy things outside of combat.

[northerndragon]

SWORD AND SHIELD!

For various reasons (mostly some factors up in the air, partly that I've been sick this week and just hiatused just in case) I didn't post this time around, but I've been keeping Sonya in mind as someone to do something with and do need to apologize for my on/off flakiness. I have a thread from last month to pick up, but after that, and once I'm doing a little more, I'd totally be up for Mr I Can Kick Three People's Asses At Once to help her with sword stuff!

[sallyfaced]

I will definitely let you know when I've got that set up! I'm a sucker for similarities in wildly different circumstances type of thing. Especially when their worlds are so different. Can't wait!

Fingon

[utulien_aure]

PLAYERYour name: Mary
Contact Info: delatour
Additional Info: EST; first weeks of grad school and moving are driving me mad at the moment, but I should be more available after this week.

CHARACTERCharacter Name: Fingon Fingolfinion
Canon: Tolkien’s Legendarium (Specifically The Silmarillion)
Journal: utulien_aure

About Them: Elven warrior-prince, adventurer, older brother, nice guy, accidentally Doomed, occasional bringer of musical instruments on supposedly secret rescue missions. Not actually sensible, but good candidate for Only Sane Dude at family reunions because the standards are so very low. Likes include archery, horses, music, and ridiculously elaborate hairstyles. Very anti-blizzards and Balrogs.
Notable CR: Fingon’s closest CR is with his cousins, Maglor and Curufin, and with the effectively adopted Sansa Stark.
Current Plans: Fingon is currently On a Boat, scheduled to return just in time for Love’s Event. As the anniversary of his marriage also falls during the event and his spouse recently disappeared, Fingon’s not going to be particularly happy with Love- so if anyone wants a partner in griping about whole business here’s your elf.
CR you're looking for: Anything and everything; he's usually a fairly friendly person and would try to be decent to anyone. With that said, Fingon's probably best for archers and other types of warriors, musicians, and people who can withstand a bit more of the Tolkein Elfyness aesthetic.

PLAYERYour name: Shade
Contact Info: plurk (Light_shade), Discord: Lightshade#4738
Additional Info: I live in PST and mostly tag at nights since I work the day shift. Usually, I'm off Sundays and Mondays, so I'm around a little bit more for tagging on those days. I get chronic migraines, so if I have one of those, I'm out of it for a day or two, so if I'm not active or tagging, that's usually why.

CHARACTERCharacter Name: Leo Flynn
Canon: Monsters of Verity
Journal: stealyoursoul

About Them: A self-righteous Sunai monster that looks human, but is anything but. In order to live, he's got to eat the souls of sinners, which he can do by playing a song with any instrument. But unlike his siblings, he seems to try and go through life by doing it in the worst way possible and pissing everyone off around him. He is actually trying to get better at empathizing with people, but it's kind of hard, since what humanity he has literally has been burnt out of his system. That being said, he's not the worst person to be around so long as you're not a sinner, and occasionally can get past being a stick in the mud, and try to have some fun.

There's a few things that don't translate well using a PB, so I'll include them here. He's got black, tattoo-like crosses on his left arm that go all the way up almost to the shoulder and a scar that goes through his left eyebrow. Some might notice it's the only scar he has on him anywhere. He's ridiculously good-looking, it's a canon thing. Sunai are pretty since they're predators and it attracts their prey more easily. If he's transformed into his true form or the character can sense or see he has a different form, it'll look like this.
Notable CR: Lives with Seth and Margo, who he considers family. Seems destined to make friends with the worst sort of people like Caedra and Starscream. (He's a very bad judge of character and a hypocrite, y'all. Save him from himself.) Just killed Abigail during the last event, but he actually was really sympathetic for her motivations to do so, and likes her better for it. Has the attention of the Taaco twins. (God help him.) Everyone else he seems to either be pissing off or they tolerate him for some weird reason. No in-between. (Did I miss anyone? I feel like I missed someone)
Current Plans: Well, he finally made his first kill in the game, so yay! Or should that be yay? Anyway, he killed Abigail, and is not going to be feeling bad about it anytime soon, since he sees it at best a righteous action and at absolute worst a mercy kill. If your character finds out and would like to call him out/ask why/high-five him, whatever, I'm down for it! Other than that, he's mainly been keeping to himself since he hates water, and of course is now surrounded by the stuff.
CR you're looking for: Friends, enemies, people he really shouldn't be hanging around, people who he might eventually kill by stealing their souls.....I'm down for anything really!

[ghostlocked]

hey i want more harlan/jo action too!!!! maybe they can cross paths during the love event? they don't know each other very well but maybe they could get to talking about jo's pent up Feelings or something?

[ghostlocked]

hey we already got them caedra/newt plans but how would you feel about more hh in your life?? i have no big specific plans but hh dealt with some of the delmar/michael scarfgate fallout and is just generally :eyes: at her so they'll have plenty to talk about LOL... they could just run into each other around town sometime? once she's back from seafaring ofc.

[ghostlocked]

so i'm super jazzed that harlan and faith met during the deserted event and i'd love to continue that cr..... in particular i'm Hype for her to maybe try sneaking him some bliss, if that's a thing she would do. mentioning it because that seemed to be where she was headed in one of the last tags in their flower crown thread. harlan tends to be really resistant to persuasion magic/magic that fucks with his head, but since bliss is a plant, well. he could be in some trouble LOL

granted that would result in incredibly negative cr once he figures out what's going on so it's cool if you'd rather not, but either way!!! more cr please!!

[ghostlocked]

are you ready for an incredibly nonspecific suggest here i go harlan and wash should touch base again sometime after they've bounced back from the deserted event!!!

also if you want negative cr, stop by the lab sometime wash.......... >.>

[whip_poor_will]

Eh, she'll deal. It's not like he joined willingly because he was all on board with the cause.

And yeah, lol, now that he's had some time to settle (or as best as he can. I mean, he's got a house and everything so it's a start, right?), it might be easier with Rey once she's back from her ocean voyage.

[completelycrazy]

LMFAO oh my god thank you for blessing me with that glorious misfire. but yes!! newt is like constantly in the lab so feel free to hit him up there!

[offloaded]

No rush! I've got plenty of intro log threads I'm pecking away at right now, and a robobro to inbox.

(Neither DiMA nor I expect him to be anyone's choice for cuddles, lmao)

[pellameno]

HELLO he sounds perfect! A helpful friendly boy, Pell can absolutely teach him to garden. I think I'll be posting with him asking for help on Monday, the storm ends tomorrow but I'm going on a little trip this weekend. I can ping you to it when I get it up!

You might also be interested in the tree-replanting initiative that's going on (paused by the storm) headed up by Julie and Rosie?
