Hello hello, this is Bella - I'm already here with Sarissa ([personal profile] magnitudes), but now I'm also dragged in Yasha from the second campaign of Critical Role. A navigation page and a bunch of information about her are available over here! For those who are familiar, she's coming in from episode 46, "A Storm of Memories."

— she'll be initially introducing herself as "Janet." Who knows how long that'll last.
— Hopefully working at Ring Around The Roses as a Nursery Attendant.
— She'll be residing at (1432 maybe?) Gatlin Drive. Big farmhouse, but kind of shabby and in need of repair.
— Characters with an awareness or sensitivity to angelic presences might find their spider senses tingle around her.

Yasha is tall, inclined to silence and looming. She is quite a physical presence, but doesn't like to call attention to herself. She's deeply awkward in social interactions with new people, and has a five-foot sword strapped to her or next to her at all times. The animated opening for Critical Role is over here, it's fun and a bit dramatic and ridiculous and also is sung by Ashley Johnson who plays Yasha, ayyy.

Hi there! My name's Elaine, and I am new to the game and happy to be here with Lucina from Fire Emblem: Awakening! She's a time-traveling princess from a doomed future with an incredibly strong resolve and determined outlook, but there's a lot regarding peacetime (and the level of tech that Deerington holds) that she is rather naive to. Still, she's lived her life relying on friends and allies and believing the most and best out of them, so she's an incredibly excellent friend to make. She's coming from the postgame, so everything in her world is resolved, more or less, and she won't be in an incredible hurry to leave Deerington, so she's here to help people out however she can!

SparkNotes for the game:
° She'll be living in Flatwoods Point at 70 Shepherd Road - likely on the smaller end of the houses, structurally speaking, but making it a bit more tidy and liveable will be a good project for her when things are too horror-heavy and she needs a break...
° She's going to be a student at the community college! No better way to learn about things than to go to school, right? Maybe she'll do a sport, who knows?
° Joining F.E.A.R. is something she might be interested in...if that's somewhere her CR happens to go.
° There's. A sword on her at all times? Please explain to her if this is or isn't a good idea, she. She isn't going to want to not have the sword, but it's still a sword.

If you'd like to add me on Plurk, I'm [plurk.com profile] jackabee, and I'm happy to plot things out or just chitchat about general randomness! Again, I'm happy to be here and ready to get elbow deep in horror!

Hello all! I'm Cali and I am new to the game. I bring you one Hernan "Shades" Alvarez from the MCU - specifically the Luke Cage Neflix series. He's a Puerto Rican gangster from Harlem that is prone to manipulating people and turning on his allies, but isn't a big fan of senseless violence. He generally liked to live by a kind of criminal code of ethics, at least until that kind of bit him on the ass...so we'll see which side of that he lands on here. Very likely to come off as cocky or creepy. He prefers to go by his sobriquet Shades in canon, but he may introduce himself as either depending on the situation.

~He'll be settling in at Blackwood Run. Expect to see his fancy black Cadillac cruising the streets before you meet him in person. He'll be scoping the town out heavily.
~Similarly, Shades isn't jumping into employment right away, though I have my eye on the manager position at Glass.
~However, I would like to have him get involved with the criminal ring in town eventually, via The Hair of the Dog. I'm sure it will take some time for him to suss that out, but if anyone ICly is part of the ring or knows how to get into the speakeasy, please let me know.
~Shades is quite different from his comics namesake, but I'm open to people from other Marvel iterations knowing his name if they might be familiar with him.

I can be reached here, by PM, at [plurk.com profile] calidragon or on Discord at calidragon#1605 for plotting. Looking forward to everything!

Hi everyone! I'm Lin and I play Ventus from Kingdom Hearts. However, as an important note since Ventus is from post-KH3, please let me know if you'd like to avoid any spoilers! Otherwise, he's an old Keyblade wielder and has been quite a bit. Apologies to the initial confusion for looking so much like Roxas.

He's not Roxas. He swears.

Important things:
- He'll be residing at 3250 Castle Road in a decent looking enough house. Which he'll hate being alone in at first before it'll freak him out :)
- Looking to work at the book store as a cashier
- He's pretty much a ball of sunshine with some PTSD

But I'm looking very forward to being in this game! You're free to add at [plurk.com profile] seabutterfly too if you're like to do some future plotting or whatnot.

Hello, my name is Pandora. I bring you Father Abel Nightroad from Trinity Blood. He's a priest, a clergyman, and an agent who works for the Vatican. He is a vampire that eats the other vampires in his world, but fundamentally don't feed himself regularly because he's a pacifist. He can't...feed from you or anyone else because he requires the blood of vampires from his homeworld.

He's 976 years old, so he's going to be everyone's Father figure to whom he meets and befriended. If CR and friendship with interests you, please let me know. He'll live alone, but he may like roommates or even teens/children to adopt and care for and protect as a father/parental unit in the future. For CR, I'm looking for close friends or bonds. He's very domestic, but he has a dark side.

Things for him to do:
- He'll be living on Main Street in the Brahms area
- He'll be studying in the community college to be a nurse in a hospital, but work part-time as a clergy, doing pastor/reverend work as that's his original occupation, so his home will be filled with a lot of books
- He's very scholarly, teacher, and father-like and is very scientifically minded
- As his name implies, he does have a twin brother name, Cain

Please let me know, how you feel about religion since he's Catholic and that's his occupation as an ordained priest. While he's open-minded and won't impose his beliefs, he's pretty laid back. He's totally not doing his priestly job at times but depending where he goes, he's maybe doing spiritual duties such as exorcisms as a part of his job. I am leaning for him toward medicine/medical work and get involved with the hospital as a possible route.

He's also a gunslinger meaning he will collect firearms/weapons and slay monsters for the greater good, as being a vampire, he thrives on violence and bloodlust. His dark side is that he is will to go far protecting people he cares about.

I plan for him to take it easy for now and just explore Deerington, interact, and chat with folks around here.

My plurk is [plurk.com profile] thornheart if you want to plot, you're welcome to add me, just let me know. Let me know if CR/friendship with him interests you. Abel would like acquaintances and friends to cook for and have teatime with and also have a friendly chit-chat and gossip.

Hello everyone, I'm bringing with me Lucifer Mornignstar from the television version of the DC Lucifer (and Sandman) canon. He is indeed the actual Devil, and will tell literally everyone this fact very cheerfully.

He's coming from the tail-end of s2e18, meaning he has his wings and is currently under the impression that he can't show people his true face.

-He'll be living at 402 Prospero Townhomes because of course he does.
-He'll probably try and start Lux, his club, up in town.
-He doesn't have a car. What kind of sadist knocks a man out and doesn't let him have his sportscar in a dream??
-Despite being the actual Devil, he likes people a lot, and is incredibly protective of his friends.

If you guys could take a look at his permissions for me, that would be great! Being that he's the Devil, he does go on about religion pretty often; if that bothers you for any reason, feel free to opt out of him discussing it. I also have two opt-ins for a couple of his powers I'd appreciate people filling out! Just so I have a record of who he can and can't affect.

As a bonus, with his power of desire warped, there is a chance for your character to get irrationally angry at him if they find him attractive, should you choose.

Finally, my plurk is [plurk.com profile] kamex, feel free to add me if you'd like some CR with him!

Of course I remember Airy, and I've very excited to get to know Justine. I actually...have a journal for Thomas but I've never done anything with it because it's a very intimidating canon to play from! And it's been quite a few years since I read the books at this point, lol. Either way, you might be noticing a pattern in my character choices.

Shades is at least more...personable...than my previous character. Sort of.

I didn't realize that Yasha was you! Our thread is kind of short right now (I'm super bogged down but I'm slowly slogging through!) but if you want to make it ingame canon, I am all for that.

I have enjoyed seeing Sarissa around so I look forward to Yasha too!!!

Hello hello! I'm Bella, I've only seen a few episodes of Lucifer but it was delightful so I really need to pick it up again and I was so excited to see him on the TDM. You've already met The Most Awkward Helper, Yasha, but I've got another character I'd love to throw at him as well. I'm on plurk at karmacharging so i might just.... gently add you.

OH also Yasha is a dnd character and is an aasimar, which is a race of people who are like... kind of like humans who have been touched by the divine or have a celestial/angelic connection. So that could be interesting or something we gently parkour around, whatever works best for you.

Oh nice and I get that. I usually don't run into a lot of people who know the Dresden Files so it's exciting for someone to know it. I have a write up on her journal for her just because even the wiki does a poor job of describing her history lol

Hey, I’m TJ and I’m bringing in Credence Barebone from that trashy Harry Potter prequel with the long name. I’m new here and this is the first game I’ve played in for about three years so pls be gentle to me lmao

Just click his journal for more info than you ever needed but he’s a skittish, kind of unstable magical type (technically a wizard, but that got all twisted up so he’s not really like the other wizards). He has a pet phoenix! He’s not exactly a good guy, and high levels of emotional upset may cause him to sort of burst out of his skin but that’s nbd right?

He’ll be living at 72 Shepherd Road in Flatwood Point bc I’m mean and he’s kinda creepy.

I have a content warning up here mostly for body horror and abuse if you need to opt out of dealing with those things.

I would love plurk friends! Pls add me, I’m lonely. [plurk.com profile] boywonder

Hello everyone, nice to meet you! I'm Delitan and I will be bringing in another variation of Peter Parker, this time straight out of the Marvel Comics 616 Universe.

Peter's a kind of obnoxious and embarrassing guy but overall, he's a good person who does a lot of good to help people. He's got a good sense of humor, though the quality of his jokes may be debatable, but overall he's a fun guy to be around.

Peter's gonna take residence on the David Cliff Apartments, and looking to work at Peter's Pizza because you see an opportunity, you take it, man.

That said, my plurk is [plurk.com profile] guardiandeity and my Discord is Delitan#4206, feel free to add if you'd like!

Hi everybody! I'm Izzy and I'm playing Vigil! This guy will probably look familiar to you; he was bumbling around the place last winter but had to disappear for a while due to some health issues. But things are better, and he's back!

Vigil's an OC. He was an ordinary dude with an overactive imagination who was kidnapped by fae and turned into a gargoyle. He escaped, but his name and memories of his human life are gone, at least for now. He's hoping to start a new life in Deerington, or at least as much of one as he can have in a dream.

Bullet points!

• He's living at 708 David Cliff Apartments so neighbors are welcome to stop by.
• He has the ability to shape earth and stone with his mind, a talent he uses mostly for making pretty figurines for his friends.
• He'll be working at the new art store for the moment, but eventually he'd like to open a gallery.
• He's friendly, but also incredibly naive, bordering on gullible. Hilarity will surely ensue.

Feel free to add me on Plurk at [plurk.com profile] izzyryu!

Hi there Deerington, I'm Pan and I am completely new to this game! I'll be bringing a dumb grass kid from Adventure Time. Fern here used to be Finn, then through paradoxical shenanigans he became a sword known as Finn Sword. Through further magic shenanigans he also started out as the cursed Grass Sword (which in turn may have started out as a Grass Demon?? The show isn't overly clear on that). Eventually the two swords merged in one big shenanigan to become one emotionally volatile, sometimes violent not!Finn who is made entirely of grass with two separate presences in his mind.

It's Adventure Time, so it's complicated.

The Grass Demon body gives him the Powers of Grass, the details of which are in his app and permissions. He has some big identity issues going on thanks to all this mess, and has a habit of screwing up in the worst ways. Sometimes he comes across as unnerving and other times he's downright demonic, complete with forked tongue. He's great with a sword, though!

Finally, he's taken from the end of Three Buckets, after a nasty run-in with the weed whacker mode on Finn's robot arm. He's at a pretty low point in his life, physically and mentally. Please let me know on his permissions page if you're uncomfortable with identity stuff and body horror, since his character is pretty heavy on both.

Some notes for the game:
-He'll be living in 437 Allison Road, though he will probably be spending most of his time sleeping outside in trees and grass like a hobo.
-He'll probably start out as a student at the high school. I'm still deciding on that or a part time job.

My plurk is [plurk.com profile] diremuta and I'm on discord at pan#2663. Feel free to add me! I'm open to positive and negative CR and am looking forward to having Fern be a total fuck-up as usual.

Hey, it's Giz! I currently play Clara Oswald ([profile] ohmyclara), and now I'm adding this equally overdramatic ball of lanky thirteen-year-old angst, Mike Wheeler from Stranger Things. He's the de facto leader of his 1980s nerd gang, a bastion of mostly useless D&D trivia, and a certified sassy little bitch (but really, he's pure and gentle at heart). Right now he's fresh off some horrendous trauma - watching his best friend get possessed, seeing people be torn apart by monsters, that good old stuff - so he'll be bottling that right up and lashing out at people who tell him he can't get back to Indiana. Fun times ahead!

This tall infant will be camping out at 2121 Maple Street, eating absolute garbage, and refusing adult supervision. You can find me at [plurk.com profile] gizmatico or on discord at gizelle#7798 for plotting!

Hello lovely Deerington people! I'm Chris, bringing you my first character in game: Gwendolyn (aka Gwen) Poole (aka Gwenpool, aka Ghostface No-Pants Killer, aka a general pain in everybody's ass). Gwen is a... let's say unique case in that she originally comes from a universe like ours, where superheroes only exist in movies and comic books, but then she traveled into the Marvel-616 universe and became a superhero herself. As such, she has a LOT of Fourth Wall information, about basically everybody from any popular canon from prior to 2016. Therefore, I have a permissions/opt-out post that I'd encourage everybody (especially other Marvels) to please check out and drop me a line re: what you're comfortable with Gwen knowing about your character. She tends not to run around telling people they're fictional, or shouting "Thor is secretly Jane Foster!" (anymore)... She's learned her lessons there. But I'd appreciate you checking out the permissions post anyway.

I can be reached on plurk at [plurk.com profile] objectpermanence and on discord at millennial falcon#9103.

- She'll be living at 565 David Cliff Apartments (because her home universe is TRN-565 in the Marvel numbering system... I'm clever)
- No job just yet, and she won't be going to school either because she's a high school drop out. She's just gonna freeload for a while until something comes along.
- She has a pet baby land shark named Jeff. Watch your ankles.
