Good morning folks and welcome to the eighteenth CR meme of Hadriel! Just in case you somehow forgot how it works, you copy the form below, fill it out with details of your character and the type of CR you're looking for, and then run around and reply to others! Make some plans, dish out some cool CR, and have fun!

Feel free to post one comment with every character, or have a separate header with your name and list characters in separate comments under that. Whatever works!

CHARACTERCharacter Name: Dr. Newton Geiszler
Canon: Pacific Rim
Journal: completelycrazy

About Them: Newt is super smart, super arrogant, and super obnoxious. He's also super enthusiastic, which usually makes him at least kind of fun to be around, but that's been tempered mildly now that he's stuck in Hadriel. He'll bounce back eventually, probably? Anyway, Newt's from a version of Earth that's being invaded by massive Godzilla-style aliens called Kaiju, and he's a biologist that studies them. THE biologist, really. He's lowkey highkey obsessed with them, so step right up if you want him to talk your ear off about how awesome and amazing the Kaiju are. There's no Kaiju in Hadriel so that's a bummer (SORT OF???) but there are a lot of crazy weird other species lurking around the islands, which is what he's currently interested in. Newt's impulsive and is incredibly dense when it comes to other people's feelings and stuff, but he means well...? Mostly? IDK MAN Newt's a hot mess and is very Extra and has a habit of infuriating everyone around him, but this is mostly due to his unwillingness to rein himself in. Gotta be all Newt all the time, dude.

Physically, he's small (5'7) and screechy and has full body tattoos of various Kaiju done in a mock Yakuza style. Feel free to make fun of him for all of these things.

Notable CR: Newt splits his time between the lab, where he's hanging with Alphys and his various LAB INTERNS (George, Cashmere, and Michael, all deserving of a better title) who help him with monster/mechanical stuff, or taking care of his budding monster menagerie at home with Hayden and his roommate Semiyon. He's got a uhhhh weird booty call thing going on with Tucker, and some budding CR with a few other folks around town.

Current Plans: Newt just publicly launched his bestiary last month! He's still constantly updating it and will probably make network posts about it from time to time, but it's also listed on the newbie guide if you want an excuse for your character to get involved. He's always looking for help around the lab, so I'm sure we could find a spot for your character somewhere. Aside from that, he's got a toplevel at September's lab mingle and a general September open post, and can almost always be found in the lab. He, uh, also has a small zoo going at his house? He keeps a few easy(ish)-to-manage monsters alive to study them. Currently, he has two salamanders, a small mimic, a rust monster, and sometimes he has a jabberjay hanging around.

CR you're looking for: MORE CLOSE CR he has some in the works but I'd like to get him some closer relationships. Other than that, I'm really down for anything? Positive and negative CR are both A++!!

Notes:

[dedikated]

i still wanna get some cr with you!! like in general but also newt bc i love him despite my canonblindness.

[completelycrazy]

omg!! YEAH LET'S MAKE THIS HAPPEN did you have anything in particular in mind??

[dedikated]

HMMM i COULD THROW HER AT THE LAB since she's probably there a lot right now nerding over the door (':

edit: UFCK I KNEW I SHOULDN'T HIT RANDOM ICON AND Y E T

[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!

[knifecollecting]

1) You're welcome for blessing you with my wit

2) They still need to be friends however that happens okay. It'll be good.

[completelycrazy]

THEY DO hmm would she be out during the storm at all? maybe she could catch him while he's dragging ogre parts to the lab LMAO

[knifecollecting]

I'm not sure, tbh. She won't realize it's time for new arrivals because the storm messes up her count she hates when this happens. She might go out towards the end? I will keep you updated.

[completelycrazy]

yaaaay sounds good!! we'll figure out a way to mash them together sooner or later, for sure. >8)

[knifecollecting]

Definitely!

CHARACTERCharacter Name: Harlan Halliday
Canon: OC
Journal: ghostlocked

About Them: Harlan is a SORCERER!!! which sounds cooler than he is. He's from a modernized DnD campaign, where he runs an adventuring guild with his pals Tucker and Kyna and spends a lot of time pulling hilarious goofs on his friends instead of actually doing his goddamn job (except he's The Boss now so he actually does his job a lot too). He's calmed down (read: grown up) a lot since landing in Hadriel (thanks in part to a canon update), so now he's like... the tired parent who spends most of his day wrangling his various Responsibilities (that usually come in the form of people). That said, he's super social and loves talking to people, so he doesn't actually mind his role as Team Dad when he's not trying to deal with his own issues. He's a pretty enthusiastic friend and loves supporting his pals, but he can also be super emotional and sometimes has a hard time reining himself in. He can read people pretty well (usually? sometimes sarcasm is lost on him) and he's very straightforward, which... can either be a pro or a con depending on your personal taste. He has zero time for bullshit, but you can trust him to be upfront and honest with you, at least.

Also, quick plug for his permissions and opt-out stuff. Harlan struggles with mental illness, self harm, suicidal thoughts, homicidal urges, and a history of mental and sexual abuse, and he can us magic that messes with people's heads. If you have a minute to let me know what your comfort level is with those things and/or if you would like to avoid tagging him altogether, I'd appreciate it!

Notable CR: HH came to Hadriel with his buddies from home, Tucker and Kyna. Other close CR includes Michael (boyfriend!!), Hayden (roommate!!), Delmar (best bud!!), and George (magic student!!). He's got a bunch of other CR around town but if I try to list I will definitely forget someone and then feel bad. >:T

Current Plans: Harlan is pretty shaken in the wake of the Deserted event, and is mostly gonna keep a low profile this month. He has an open September catch-all log that I was mostly using for post-event reunions, but it's a good place to hit him up if you'd like cr (despite the lack of prompts; I can put a starter up for you if you want!). He spends most of his time helping Del at the bakery, taking care of the weed garden, or milling around near the Silent Hill area... but really he can be found like anywhere in town because he gets bored easily. I miiight do a network post with him later in the month? WE'LL SEE BUT I'D LIKE MORE TEXTING THREADS since those are fun. Oh, and if you'd like cr with him but aren't sure where to start, he's been known to text random numbers out of the blue out of boredom.

CR you're looking for: Anything, really? I know that's a boring answer but HH has a good mix of CR at the moment and I don't have any big holes I'm looking to fill. I'm on board with both negative and positive CR though! More negative CR wouldn't hurt, actually. Too many people like him??? But for real, anything is good, and HH is a great character to help push other characters through development stuff. If you're looking for someone to help your character with x issue or get them to develop in a certain way or whatever, I'm totally down to use Harlan to help with that!!

LMAO that's a pretty hh/del gif right there

[stealyoursoul]

I love how these two hate each other. And shall continue to. And also Harlan looks like a nice soul-shaped snack. /Pours salt and cayenne on him.

[ghostlocked]

it's concerning to me that leo does not already find harlan salty and spicy enough???

for real tho i'm digging this cr so i'm glad you are too!! this latest thread is opening up some really interesting avenues for them too? like it's suddenly more complicated then them just hating each other... SUPER LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING HOW IT DEVELOPS
