[variantcover]

I know we have to fill something out if our character dies, but do we have to fill out anything if our character is going to be killing people? (NPCs or otherwise)

[inconsequence]

Character Name: Chara Dreemurr
CR Wanted: Any! Negative CR is easiest with them, but if you can get on their good side, congrats! You can do this most easily by being visibly nonhuman or being someone who's obviously had a...troubled past.
CR Not Wanted: Nothing romo, but that's it!
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: chara's not one for parties and big crowds, so the rave is a hard no they're not even touching that one.

power-swapping: chara will definitely be getting the powers that the rest of their family has - healing magic, fire magic, orange and blue attacks, the ability to summon a badass red trident, the fucking works. they're going to love it. i'm going to give them something nice for once.

heroic intentions: when the lawlessness descends, chara is going to succumb to their frequently-denied instincts of justice and compassion...and they'll be heroic instead of crimes-y, i've decided. they'll help you against the townsfolk who are getting violent. they'll get you out of harm's way. they'll use their badass dreemurr magic to save you! i delight in undermining their shitty edgelord persona every chance i get okay

Character Name: Jack Wynand
CR Wanted: Any and all. I would especially love it if people who realized how easily manipulatable he is get to using him. He will very happily and innocently be your blunt force object to swing about. He will so, so easily be used.
CR Not Wanted: Again nothing romo since he's like four
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: again parties aren't jack's thing so probably no go there

power-swapping: jack already has some pretty whackass powers, so i might just...juggle the plasmids he has a bit. give him some cyclone trap (launches you into the air), give him some enrage (makes people attack each other), give him some hypnotize (makes people do what he says and/or tricks them to be on his side if they weren't. i can even get rull wild and throw some of the cut plasmids like teleportation (unstable as heck and liable to send him somewhere he shouldn't be), or sanctuary (makes a protective bubble around him).

HIGH CRIMES: jack will slide to the opposite end of the spectrum. instead of the paragon he usually is, he's gonna be more like his "bad end" self. prone to destruction. power hungry. capable of crushing whoever's in his way. even if you're a kid. try and snap him out of it, or don't - just fucking wreck his shit! but he does have all those plasmids up his sleeve so be careful :)

[sensenfukoku]

Character Name: jiro yamada
CR Wanted: any tbh
CR Not Wanted: i don't want him to kill or be killed (yet? lol)
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

i think jiro is going to be pretty involved in this event. some ideas:

- he already has electricity powers that are difficult for him to control. this is kinda open ended; maybe he can shock someone or he'll want to see if he can charge your phone. he's like that.
- rave? oh yes homies. i wanna put him at the rave ( still no idea what his outfit is, but ... ) and he'll probably ask people to dance or maybe ask someone to get him something to quench the thirst. he's dying of it, you see.
- at the rave, he'll probably try the popsicles, blue pill, and jello shots.
- the purge, he's gonna definitely loot what he can and get into fights if he needs to.

Character Name: demyan reyes ( tasteofink )
CR Wanted: yes. all
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

- his powers stay the same tbh. he's only sort of disappointed
- rave? he'll check it out ... probably will end up getting tanked on jello shots.
- the purge is where i really want demyan. i don't think he'll end up particularly murderous but he'll be an agent of chaos and try to lasso people into Crimes.

my plurk is sleightpunk if you wanna plot. i'm also in the discord chat, so hit me up here or there or wherever.

[castle]

Character Name: frank castle (pete castiglione)
CR Wanted: kids for him to adopt, people to call out his bullshit, people to annoy him, hero types for him to be at odds with, soldiers for him to form bonds with, friends to gradually form trust with, actual assholes for him to hate, etc etc.
CR Not Wanted: he's in an exclusive relationship now so no romances.
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

WHEN THE CATS SLEEP frank is absolutely made for this event, and one of the biggest things of note is that he will finally be bringing out the punisher. basically, he will be finally donning his famous skull vest, bringing out his guns, and killing some baddies. this could pertain to mostly npc's, but i would also like him to kill threatening characters, especially those that will be trying to harm the children around town. so cr wanted is mostly people he can either save, fight, or work alongside by. also might be willing to seek out a frank death where he protects someone from being killed by another character.

Character Name: wanda maximoff
CR Wanted: friends to build trust with, magic users to relate to, friends with special abilities, slow burn romances, sibling-like bonds, etc.
CR Not Wanted: n/a
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

WHEN THE CATS SLEEP wanda will be going very violent and will be overcome by darker urges that may have her become a threat to just about anyone. she will still have her powers which can come into play for doing some major damage where it's simply construction or harming some characters. she can definitely engage in some fights, whether it's to fight her head on or simply have people trying to tame her down. she's also plenty available for causing character deaths or doing some major mental damage. she can bring out people's worst fears with her abilities so if anyone wants some mind fuckery, she's your gal. she's also available to be killed, but it'll have to be by someone particularly strong that can work against her abilities.

[earps]

Character Name: Wynonna Earp
CR Wanted: All types! Friends, found family, kids for her to secretly mom, drinking buddies, diner buddies, people for her to wait on at the (Fake) Hair of the Dog (her current place of employment), folks with supernatural/demon-type experience.
CR Not Wanted: Not super negative CR (unless there's an event-motivated reason behind it) but I'd be a-okay with her having a frenemy or someone she gently butts heads with on occasion. She's also currently spoken for in the romance department.
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

The two parts of the event I want to lean more into re: plotting are the rave (you are the dancing queen) and the town anarchy (when the cats sleep). Wynonna can be a party animal at even her best and most noble times, so there's every chance she could stumble through out of curiosity and wind up there for a couple days. In terms of treat effects, I'd be more inclined to let her experience either popsicles or candy buttons or some jello shots, since most of it won't necessarily be anything she hasn't faced before from her many years of partying.

Once the town starts going into Purge setting, ya girl is going to be full hero mode, because unfortunately, that pesky side of her that has to save people is going to take over and use her strengths to rescue those who can't protect themselves as easily. She won't be outright murdering any of the Townsfolk or fellow Sleepers, but she will aim to incapacitate/knock someone unconscious to throw them in a cell at the police station or something.

Because she lives out on the edge of town near the reservoir, away from where most of the violence might be sweeping through, she'll also be opening her farmhouse to anyone who might need a safer place to stay, so if anyone wants to do rescue or hunkering down threads I'm totally down for that.

[kidthesedays]

Character Name: Number Five
CR Wanted: Obligatory any, but negative/violent is almost guaranteed with this guy. LATE EDIT: He's also decided he's going to SINGLE-HANDEDLY CRACK THIS TOWN'S SECRETS so I'd love to make him some exploration or information-collecting buddies.
CR Not Wanted: n/a
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

• Power-swapping: Probably mostly opting out of this with Five remaining powerless until the end of the month, but if anybody wants to steal his short-range teleportation powers feel free.


• Rave: Five won't be directly participating in the rave (it's not... his thing...), but he'll be suspicious enough to investigate it and I'm interested in exploring some of the candy effects! Particularly the popsicles--he, uh, won't care for the dehydration, ha ha--and he probably wouldn't turn down the jello shots, because booze. Mostly bringing it up because he's, uh, very young-looking, which might be relevant to anybody responsible enough to care that a child seems to be dealing with major sensory overload and/or drunk.


• The Purge: This is the fun one. I'm probably not going to have Five be particularly heroic or crime-y, but he will be much less restrained in his violent tendencies than usual, and more protective of what he sees as his territory. And he has a sniper rifle. Any conflict will likely escalate to lethal consequences. Tl;dr: who wants to get murdered by a thirteen-year-old. Or be witness to that happening! He'll almost certainly be killing NPCs during the event, and I'm fully willing to have him kill other player characters as well if you're interested in that kind of thing!

[azurestar]

Can we go crazy killing NPCs? Are there any NPCs off limits, and if the killing spree racks up a big NPC body count, will there be lasting consequences with how the locals, wastes etc behave around/towards you?

[mightdoriya]

Character Name: Izuku Midoriya
CR Wanted: Any and all! New CR, interactions with old, I'm down for anything
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

Izuku died last month, but now he's back and has mostly recovered from the after-affects other than being a bit sore. This will affect his mood going into May, but he's doing his best to just try to work past it and not let it take him over.

- Imagine Me, Imagine You

Thanks to the way the pollen affected him last month, Izuku is going to be very suspicious of the fog. He'll try to stay inside to get away from it for the first couple days, only to realize that doing so is impossible since it seems to be seeping into his apartment anyway. Since it's not going anywhere, he'll try to resume his normal routine (with a sick mask to protect himself, to not really much affect at all).

Due to the fog, Izuku will lose his ability to use his Quirk entirely. He isn't going to KNOW this unless he discovers it in a thread with someone, so I definitely encourage scenarios that would prompt him to use it! Whether it's someone wanting to spar or wanting to pick a fight, I am game for anything. He will lose access to his Quirk until June. I might give him additional abilities in July since it carries over, but I'm not sure yet!

- You are the Dancing Queen

Izuku received his package but he was...a little too distracted to really do much with it until now. He received some utterly ridiculous roller blades and an outfit to match (it doesn't match). He'll be finding a shirt to wear under the vest because no...no matter how confident it makes him he is not THAT brave.

Izuku is as Izuku does though and he will end up getting influenced by the draw of the ugly clothing and wind up at the rave. He'll likely return a time or two, mostly because the rave itself is making him WANT to, but he won't over do it because I don't want to actually kill him this month haha. But that also means...he'll be partaking in some of the treats as well, namely Candy Buttons, the Blue Pill, and Jello Shots.

The Blue Pill, namely, I plan on utilizing to give him Bakugou's personality for one of the prompts. So enjoy that!

- When the Cats Sleep

By this prompt Izuku will have somehow discovered he's lost his Quirk (or at least access to it), so it's not going to sit well with him when the crime starts to kick up. He'll try his best to stay out of harm's way, but...at some point things are going to come to a head and he'll likely end up in an altercation with some townsfolk causing some kind of trouble. And unfortunately, despite being trained to fight, without his Quirk he can't take on several people alone.

I'll have two parts for this, one where people can jump in and help him fight off his attackers, and one where it's already happened and he's all bruised up and dejectedly making his way to the pharmacy...again.

Nothing is ever easy in Deerington.

ANYWAY that's all for me for now! If anybody wants to plot anything further you can hit me up or add me on plurk, winterbolt!

[pursuitofcappiness]

Character Name: Steve Rogers
CR Wanted: Well he's new so any CR is appreciated! Acquaintances, friends, allies, enemies, annoyances, coworkers, students, etc!
CR Not Wanted: Nothing I can think of at the moment.
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: Imagine Me, Imagine You
Steve is gonna keep his powers but feel free to also get super soldier serumed?? I don't think I want him to gain any additional powers, maybe something silly but I don't want to make him more of a powerhouse.
You Are the Dancing Queen
Steve will be available for rollerblading around, he is wearing this and he is going to wake up the next morning in a super strong, amazonian female body. This is going to be the second time he needs a new wardrobe this month, so that's going to be a lot of fun for him. Feel free to flirt, he might actually be rave-happy enough to flirt back!
When the Cats Sleep
Yeah... Steve's going to be outside doing the Captain America thing. Please lmk if you'd like to fight him, have your character rescued, or have your character get annoyed that Steve is trying to treat them like they're in distress (they're totally okay!!) He will be pulling punches on any of his friends who are currently evil, but he will be available for cognitive recalibration.

[sodder]

Nope! That is free game- especially with NPCs.

[pursuitofcappiness]

Oh Wanda :( I feel like he's going to want to stop her, can she leave him with a nightmare and jet off?

[variantcover]

Wonderful. It's murder-spree time!

[variantcover]

Character Name: Gwen Poole
CR Wanted: people to fight (and possibly kill)! lighthearted dancey stuff at the rave to break up from all the fighting (and possibly killing)!
CR Not Wanted: drunken/sexual rave stuff
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:copying from my plurk:

- BEGINNING OF MAY: evil future Gwen develops Quentin Quire's telekinesis/telepathy, wreaks havoc on the town and potentially murders a few people
- BY MAY 12TH: Gwen is back to her normal age, still has QQ's powers, attends the rave looking fashionable, and eats a popsicle
- END OF MAY: superpowered Gwenpool fights crime (and kills Miles Morales)

[sodder]

Yup! Even Betties can be killed during this time, though the Townsfolk will be the majority of what you find on the streets.

If your character is masked there will not be extensive circumstances since there will be far too many masked criminals at this point to keep track of who is doing what. But if your character kills in mass quantities unmasked then Townsfolk will likely avoid them like the plague in the future even Betties as well. Wastes will be much more timid as well, more than usual anyway.

[laminae]

Character Name: Fern
CR Wanted: All of it, both negative and positive! He used to be a hero and a knight, but now is a lot more morally grey and has done some pretty terrible things due to a Lovecraftian horror making up half of his core self. Due to his circumstances and young age Fern is easily influenced towards both heroism and villainy, for characters that lean in either direction, particularly if they're adults. He's also a messed up cursed grass monstrosity, for any characters that would get pinged by that.
CR Not Wanted: None!
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
Power-swapping:
Fern's grass powers will be going out of control. This will tie into the Purge part of the event, but will also mean a lot of random vegetation will be growing all over his body. If anyone is interested in gaining Fern's shitty grass powers (including having a Grass Demon all up in their headspace and the mental effects it has) let me know, I can supply information and canon for reference.

Rave:
The last time parties in Ooo involved a rave or rollerskating were really messed up, and Fern isn't exactly a party person, so he'll likely only show up if someone convinces to go or drags him along. He isn't interested in the clothing, and since he doesn't eat or drink he'd likely just hide in a corner and people-watch, if anyone would like an incredibly awkward killjoy to bounce off of!

Purge:
Since Fern already has problems with violent tendencies he is going to fall prey to this pretty quick. The Grass Demon's amplification of his violent side will be made even worse here, so he'll be mostly feral and available for fighting, causing injuries and killing people. He's susceptible to fire and can be knocked out, but is basically a grassy sponge for guns and swords, so for those he can take a huge (HUGE) beating.

[variantcover]

I love MHA and have admired your Izuku from afar since I've been in game, so I would love to throw Gwen at him for some CR! Either to fight or to party at the rave, whichever you prefer.

During the beginning of the month, Gwen will be aged up into her supervillain older self, and will be doing crimes and killing people, so if you want a fight, that's probably the best option. Otherwise, they can just roller skate and trade candy buttons or something!

[acidwashjeans]

Character Name: Steve Harrington
CR Wanted: teenagers for peer cr, kids for mom-ing cr, adults if you're cool, I guess???
CR Not Wanted: are you a demogorgon? no demogorgon cr please
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

Rolly Derby: Steve's getting SUPER into the derby, getting competitive while wearing a terrible outfit, and is getting gender swapped for maximum fun.

The purge?!: Find and save all the people is his goal. If any character associated with high school wants to do something with the more aggressive townsfolk kids and teachers I'm keen! Once things descent into chaos I'm up for Steve to come rescue people if they need it and have a safe house at his place, as well as to get super beaten up and maimed if he gets stuck in the wrong place or has a moment of heroism at the wrong time. No killing yet though so maybe someone could save him?

[mightdoriya]

Aw hey there, gosh that's so flattering to hear?? I'd love to have some CR with Gwen!

I'm thinking since this will technically be their first meeting (unless you'd like their thread from that TDM to count), it'd be better to have them run into each other at the rave! There will definitely be opportunities for them to fight each other later though, I'm sure c:

[nightroadsaint]

Character Name: Abel Nightroad
CR Wanted: Positive CR!
CR Not Wanted: No death or killing, but accidental violence is okay
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: See below
Any ideas: Feel free to hmu at thornheart or PM this journal

The following is a general plan. I may write up all prompts or some, and the plan is subject to change depending.

Imagine me, imagine you
He's a vampire already, but he now has the ability to fly around with his raven wings, increased strength, increase speed, increased durability, able to form a scythe weapon out of his blood, electrocute someone, and he can self-heal himself. Meaning, he can be quite dangerous to approach, and he'll keep it for as long the event will last. He may take his time to study the monsters while fighting them. Otherwise, pretty much a very general prompt and can help newcomers.

Come Dance the Night Away With Me
Well, he'll be at the party, and being high as a sky, seeing colors, dancing the night away, and won't remember much of himself. He's harmless and easy to approach by anybody new, but he won't be much helpful if you approach him for any assistance, especially when he's high from the food and their effects.

When the cats sleep
Abel will go on defense to secure and lock up his house. Any attempted house-invasion or looting his house and the home invader may get a beat-down or get appropriate punishment. Also, Abel is super-powered from the first prompt, so he's strong enough to kill or injure someone. Otherwise, he wavers in the grey area either trying to rescue someone, save someone, or looting/stealing food and stuff from the store due to intruding compulsions. He won't kill anyone, but he does have violent tendencies so he may punch or kick someone if provoked or out of self-defense if it's necessary.

Abel may still be helpful to others, but he will be paranoid concerning if people get on his territory or approach near his house. Get off my lawns kids, that sort of deal.

[newtralize]

I was so slammed with RL last month that I didn't really actually poke around much, but I'd really love for Wanda and Newt to get CR sometime if she wants a magic friend!

I think they could have pretty good conversations about magic and the differences in their magic, but also how people perceive them from their respective worlds!

[pyonpyon]

Character Name: nazuna nito
CR Wanted: any? i haven't been nearly as active as i'd like to be so nothing has been developed with him yet. he typically tries to adapt a big brother role but everything outside of that is also extremely welcome? anything argumentative sounds like a potential good time. he's a laid back person but he's capable of being a nag.
CR Not Wanted: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

( imagine me, imagine you ) when it comes to the beginning of may, i'm thinking to have nazuna gain some sort of... jumping ability to start with? that might be mildly useful for reaching that higher shelf at the library or something of that nature. only for it to the teeter off into more impractical and have him more like a pinball in a machine that bounces off of particular things he may come in contact with. y'know, for mild destruction. he's a boring human with no powers and there's nothing fun to swap with in terms of that, unfortunately.

( you are the dancing queen ) considering he already dances around in ridiculous outfits and declares there's he must be shameless in canon, i'm skipping out on him opening that package especially as he's doing everything he can to err on the side of caution. but he's more than likely going to be deem the rave suspicious enough to check out. admittedly, i haven't hashed out details with this but perhaps he'll give a jelloshot a try

( when the cats sleep ) nazuna is very much the "do no harm but take no shit" sort of individual and is going to do all he can to fight that mob mentality? on the other hand, he does thoughtlessly act on some occasions especially when it's protect the weak. he's attempted to murder a classmate once in canon with his own hands?

[mightdoriya]

Hey there! Since Chara is going to be succumbing to righteousness for when everyone becomes crime-happy, would you be interested in doing something with this with Izuku? Izuku is losing his abilities for the month but will still want to fight against those causing trouble, and is going to realize pretty quickly even with his wits and training it's going to be harder than he thought as a one-person job. That and he's no stranger to needing help if you'd like Chara to save his hide too because oh boy this boy gets into trouble so much...

[mightdoriya]

I need more stuff with Jiro, so-! Since Izuku's whole world is All About Powers he'd actually be pretty interested to see Jiro's electricity, if he's willing to show it off for him (especially since Izuku already has a friend back home with an electricity based Quirk, too). Or they could always run into each other at the rave since he'll be there too. I'm game for anything!

[astralera]

Character Name: Era
CR Wanted: Friendship! She's so lost lmao
CR Not Wanted: Romance
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:

Era is going to pass on the roller derby at first, since she's going to be overwhelmed enough with how advanced/different Deerington is from home, as well as trying to figure out what's up with her powers. With that said, I am super interested in characters who would be willing to help her adjust to more 'modern' conveniences.

Depending on how things go I would like for her to check out the rave later on! Though she will absolutely hate it, since she hears via vibrations through her horns so the music would be too overwhelming for her.

If anyone is interested in any power swap action she has a variety of skill sets to choose from!

She is going to be working on planting some of the seeds that came with her if anyone is interested in plants. She has some that will flower into silvery, leafy bushes that sprout elemental crystals instead of flowers. :) Super fun, pretty, and useful.

She is also up for doing 'tarot' readings with her astroglobe. No guarantees on how accurate they'll be though! Haha

For The Purge Era will be doing her best to protect and defend those in need of it, though will likely be more excessive and bloodthirsty in her retribution than usual. Feel free to think she's an easy target given her diminutive size and soft-spoken demeanor! You're also free to have your character get gutted by a protective Chocobo if you like. Or perhaps even a very unruly Carbuncle!
