CR Wanted: Any!
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: I'm definitely interested in Before the Storm aspect of things, and Take Cover and dealing with the fog and then I'm game for stuff in And All Was Quiet. She will be hiding in her house for most of the giant spider/insect stuff. Like, boarding up windows and shit. Anyone want to help her board up every window in the house? Fuck giant flying bugs.

CR Wanted: For this event? Fighting spiders, sheltering from the rain, finding the body of someone that's just full of bugs and being presented with the prospect of mercy killing them. Fushi will... probably not be able to, but I'd like to play with the moral struggle if anyone's interested. He'll be very distressed by the whole situation tbh.
CR Not Wanted: ?
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
-Getting partially burned by the fire and oily rain
-Rescuing people
-Hiding out in one of the non-occupied farmhouses and dealing with bits progressively being destroyed
-Totally trying to go to the mountain

CR Wanted:I would love to have something happen to Arya in this event and someone save her? Perhaps one of the spiders snatches her, cocoons her up, and someone manages to stop them? Also would be fun if she could have some people holed up in her home and they can do battle against the bugs trying to get in the house, everyone holding makeshift weapons. Arya's got dibs on the frying pan!
CR Not Wanted: I don't think I want her dying herself this time (eventually, but just not yet!), but that's really the only thing I'm not looking to thread out for this particular event.
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
See above. Cocooned Arya, bug battle with household appliances, snarking the entire time between Arya and whomever is with her trying to survive the various goings on in this crazy town?

CR Wanted: People to save? Fight alongside? Bicker with? idk??? anything??? F.E.A.R. CR.
CR Not Wanted: I don't wanna kill El so anything wrt that.
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
El pretty quickly found out about F.E.A.R. since he's a huge conspiracy nut and stuff like that is right in his realm. Because of his suspicion and his want to help people and be on top of things, he immediately signed up as a Soldier. So he'll be out and about helping people in cool gear, I guess. He doesn't exactly trust the place yet at all, but if it gives him cool goodies to help, then he'll help (Even if he'll mostly use his magic instead). This means if you want to experience a F.E.A.R. soldier that doesn't really know what the heck he's doing it and is basically winging it as badly as Shrek when saving Princess Fiona, he's your guy. Also he will 100% be complaining about how much he hates spiders the entire time.
Character Name: Newt
CR Wanted: Someone please save him. He's going to be running so much. His leg hurts. Please. But also, if someone needs help from Newt, he can certainly try to help.
CR Not Wanted: Don't wanna kill Newt either, sorry.
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: He'll probably be accompanying Tommy to try to see what's up with that weird Mountain because we all know Thomas can't leave well enough alone. He's also just generally going to be trying to survive... He doesn't think anybody asked for this, go away tiny evil grievers. I'm totally down for making friendships through this event for him. He doesn't really know anyone yet.
no subject
But yeah uh... if Newt wants a wolf/bear ride or alternatively if you want to kill some fog monsters, points to you points to me

CR Wanted: Everything, honestly. I'd love to have him rescue someone, because I'd love to start getting some positive CR that will become complicated later when his true nature starts to come out. My OOC intro may give a better idea for what I want in general.
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: The sense of doom and an incoming apocalypse canonically makes him feel kind of giddy even if there's immediate danger present so people can wonder why the hell this guy's so happy. He'll also be interested in collecting samples of anything to study. I'd also love if he ended up using some of his more demonic/frightening powers to help others during this event, for a good mix of 'he helped me but also he's creepy'.
I'm up for playing all parts of this event!
no subject
Elena's going to be trying to rescue people herself, but those attempts usually lead to her being the one in need of rescuing, so we could definitely go that route if you're interested.

CR Wanted: Any, all. She doesn't trust adults necessarily so other kids are gonna have better luck with being her friend. She's also more wary of girls because the girls she knows really freaking suck.
CR Not Wanted: n/a
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: Before the Storm is gonna find Bev running around town on her bike trying to stock up on things.
Take Cover Bev caught in the storm on her way home after doing a supply run would be a lot of fun. During the storm itself, she's gonna hole up in her home. Once the power goes out, expect blanket forts and candles. If anyone wants to find themselves stuck in Loser House, just know that you will be expected to participate in fort building.
The Mountain Sighs Spider vs. Slingshot. Spiders gonna lose.

Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
N.B. If you'd like to handwave shorter interactions for the purpose of establishing a jumping point for future CR, or for using her IC Inbox, just hit me up. There's a solid chance that Scarlett won't remember everyone she picks up + drops off.
Before The Storm + Take Cover
The Mountain Sighs
And All Was Quiet
Important Note On Abilities
Scarlett has Rapid Cellular Regeneration, this allows her to heal almost instantly from almost any injury. With power warping, this means that anyone within ten feet of Scarlett will get her injuries when she heals. The problem with this... Scarlett doesn't know this yet.
no subject
i also have one (1) elf to offer if she wants to rescue someone, he can be slightly helpful but he's adjusting to nerfed magic and therefore not even remotely at his A game

Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: I'll probably definitely have Chloe get some burns from the oil rain/fire. I'm gonna have her hiding out during the insect shit for the most part, but I'd be down for plotting some things with the fog for sure. Basically if you got ideas, hmu, I'm open to them.

CR Wanted: People taking shelter, people rescuing one another, finding out they're in trouble, anything goes!
CR Not Wanted: I'd rather she didn't die so soon, but I'm cool with her getting rescued, maybe risking pain or scarring from mist attacks!
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: anyone want to take shelter together, figure out food supplies, not die via fire, things of that nature? I don't have any particular ideas atm, but I'm inclined towards the first two parts of the event!
no subject
CR Wanted: Come at me
CR Not Wanted: COME AT ME
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: Ellie is goign to probably try to kill the shit out of some spiders because wow no. If that doesn't work she is going to hide it out i guess. Anyone who decides to hide out with Ellie please feel free to make her shut up because she has her joke book and she is going to use it.

CR Wanted: open to just about anything. I wouldn't mind people who need help, mutual helping or even people helping Bucky out. He's super strong and resilient, but he's also currently sporting only one arm and he's very much not used to fighting without his currently missing metal prosthetic arm, so he's at less of an advantage than he might normally be, but he's not helpless, either.
CR Not Wanted: Not looking to kill Bucky this time around, but just about anything else goes.
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
I am mostly interested in playing with the rain and other aspects of the storm, as well as the fog/insect things.

CR Wanted: If anyone finds themselves needing help at any point during the event, Jesse will be out and about (see below).
CR Not Wanted: Don't want Jesse dead yet. Other than that, nothing is off the table.
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: Jesse isn't currently a member of F.E.A.R. (he has hangups when it comes to self-policing paramilitary organizations), but he'll be out and about looking to help people. If you need someone to help you prepare for the coming storm or help you get out of a bind, Jesse is your man.
Am considering having him experience a good paranoid freakout during And All Was Quiet, so let me know if anyone would like to help talk him down from that.

CR Wanted: Someone please help this useless wizard, he's great at battles but not so much at weird creepy bugs, especially not when his magic has been warped. If anyone wants a slightly helpful damsel in distress, here's your dude
CR Not Wanted: Probs gonna avoid the nesting stuff for now but CR wise I'm open to anything!
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: I'm gonna have him stuck aside for at least a little part of the rain event and maybe some of the fog, so he'll need an assist there. He can do some fighting with his magic, it's just risky for himself and people in the vicinity. Anyone who wants to shelter in the apartment building in Brahms can run into him there too, he will make you food because it's his coping mechanism.

Justine | The Dresden Files
CR Wanted: Any & All!!! I am really excited for Justine to meet everyone.
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
Let's see, for Before the Storm & Take Cover, she's living in the David Cliff Apartments and might need help protecting her place against the storm or if someone is willing to let her follow them home to hide. She'll probably be at the Vet Clinic or on her way to her second job at the book store. With waking up in a new place, Justine's kind of thrown herself into work because that helps keep her mind busy.
Any physical pressure will have her snap and lash out violently. I'd be game for her getting hurt if anyone wants to see how messed up her thoughts are >.< It would be fun but something I'd like to do on a personal bases since Justine will be more focused on those who learn that about her.
Other than that... I'm honestly good for anything. Justine will try and help people if she thinks she can but she isn't super strong or anything so it can always backfire horribly. (Which is fun)
no subject
CR Wanted: If anyone needs rescuing during the black rain, dis kid has a car and is going to be pretty freaked by that whole deal. He's also going to wander into the forest to see the weird legy stick out real far.
CR Not Wanted: No bugs. Gansey has trauma about buzzing stinging things. the tiny version can kill him, much less the bigger one. Unless someone would like to try and talk him down from a serious panic attack, he's not doing any bug-related things. Also, no killing of the Gansey. He's died enough times.
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: Someone please drag this idiot out of the forest, where he will probably be trying to talk to the trees. Or come trip with him, that's cool too. Anyone willing to sit with him losing his mind over bugs is welcome. An intro to FEAR would be cool, although this kid is the most useless combatant in the history of hale, healthy teenaged boys. He also has a car for transportation, and will be contacting pretty much everyone he's talked to at some point during the event to check on them, more often for the kids.
no subject
alternately, i also have a witch who's fairly good with handling panic attacks and other stress/anxiety induced episodes, if you wanted to go that route with gansey.

Eddie Kaspbrak | Kieren Walker
CR Wanted: Any. All.
CR Not Wanted: Not relevant. I am fine with anything for this event if you have ideas/desires. Eddie is a trauma/horror magnet so.
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
➟ Eddie will probably be rushing around getting genuinely practical things for the storm before the storm. Like. Overly practical for what someone would anticipate from a kid......probably too practical....
➟ During the storm he'll be camping out at his house, but if anyone is interested in catching Eddie half way home when it starts to rain or something, I'm down.
➟ For the bugs, I'm very open to whatever. Eddie is a really good flex option because he can play heroics and go screaming bloody murder into killing some bugs, or on the flip side he can go screaming bloody horror away from bugs depending on how he's doing. So you can play hero or damsel with this kid, OR you can team up with him which is particularly likely. Especially with other kiddos.
➟ I'm not against him venturing towards the mountain but he would absolutely need to be convinced.
Character Name: Kieren Walker
CR Wanted: All. He has none really yet.
CR Not Wanted: He won't be out and about during the bug scenario. He's gonna be helping Gansey Through Some Stuff.
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
➟ Kieren is gonna be REALLY obviously anxious about this storm and trying to hurry up on supplies.
➟ I might have him around during the actual storm part and he will be freaking about his make up coming off and trying to get home but he's kind enough to help people if they need it.
➟ After the storm, he's going to try and help people fix up things if they seem like they need the help.
If anyone has any ideas or wants to get involved with either of the boyos, lmk here.

Seth Gecko
CR Wanted: People to banter with. Anyone in need of rescuing--even if a reluctant rescue, or a partner in crime. Someone to twist his arm into helping out.
CR Not Wanted: nothing I can think of at the moment applies
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: Given the rain is like oil, Seth wouldn't be driving around in his car too much. It'll be garage kept by the time hail begins to fall. He might be lured out if someone vulnerable needed help, otherwise he'll be staying in until the shit storm comes to an end. I don't have any issue of him dying in an attempt to help someone out, if that's something anyone wants to do.
no subject
Although I am kind of amused by the idea of Eddie being in despair often around Seth and constantly reluctant to accept his help even when he really, really obviously needs it.

CR Wanted: ... Everything. I know that's vague but it's da troof y'all. People to rescue, teamwork, F.E.A.R. things!!
CR Not Wanted: It turns out Thomas is actually pretty good at evading death despite his tendency to run head first into dangerous situations, so I'm not looking to kill him (yet). Otherwise, everything is a go, baby.
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
Character Name:

Shiro
CR Wanted: Anything!
CR Not Wanted: N/A
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
For squick reasons, I'm opting out of the second part of the event, i.e all the stuff pertaining to the bugs. BUT aside from that, I'm super available to plotting for the rest of it though -- if anyone needs pulling out of the storm or a place to hide, it's him, ya dad. I still have to shove him into an apartment, but by all means, if there's something that needs a buff dude with a metal arm, hit me up!
Eleven | Stranger Things // Richie Tozier | IT
CR Wanted: everything
CR Not Wanted: nothing
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
You know what? I'm game for anything. Save El from being spider chow, hide with her from scary fog, all that shit. She can take care of herself to an extent and really help other people if they want to attack things because she can trap them in her telepathic grip of death, or she can get overwhelmed and wind up in peril or something. If she was out and about when this all starts, she could make new CR by hiding in their houses or something. Re: giant mountain monster, it'll definitely remind her of what she knows about the Mind Flayer in Hawkins' shadow realm, so that could be something to tackle. I'd rather she not die, but she can get tossed around or poisoned a little.
Character Name: Richie Tozier
CR Wanted:
your momeverythingCR Not Wanted:
your momnothingIdeas/Wishes pertaining the event:
Same as El. He can't defend himself with telepathy, but he's got a nice bike and a nice bat, so he can attack stuff if he needs to. Maybe give someone a ride home if they're stranded and/or helpless. Team up with people and smack monsters. I'm totally game for making him suck out wound poison and saving spider food or becoming spider food. I'm not eager to have him die, but I really don't mind making him sick.
no subject
too bad there's no glow sticks or that would make this super easyRichie....hm, too bad Rei is not much of a fighter but maybe something could be figured out :|a

CR Wanted: people to rescue, people to fight bugs with, people to hang out with??
CR Not Wanted: butts
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event:
Iii am probably mostly just going to tag out in this event but if anyone would like Rey for laser sword fighting monster bugs and Force using action, hit me up! She will also be trying to help people and get them to safety so if she winds up with people holed up in her townhouse then that's just what'll happen. She's got room and a really annoying bird-creature.
no subject
CR Wanted: Someone wanna team up with this thirteen year old to fight bugs? (He's seen a lot of monster movies, alright, he knows what to do.)
CR Not Wanted: Not interested in killing him this event.
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: Basically, I need him to meet more peeps, so any idea where he has to hunker down with someone, whether that's for the storm or bugs or anything is all good to me.
Character Name: Leo Flynn
CR Wanted: Anyone want to discover that he's not human in a very gory way? He basically can't be hurt by anything, so lighting him on fire or having a bug attack him that can't actually sting him or chomp through his skin is on the table. Come be slightly traumatized by watching this happen, everyone.
CR Not Wanted: Again, no death, but I'm up for anything else!
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: Mostly interested in Take Cover and The Mountain Sighs for Leo, but I can work with any prompt!
no subject
CR Wanted: Just about anything
CR Not Wanted: Nada
Ideas/Wishes pertaining the event: To get her out of the house during the fog, someone vulnerable or important to her (ex. kids or Seth) will have to be out there, waiting for her to find them. Maaaybe this could happen. I also have this image of a basically magicless Margo beating pug-spiders with a fire poker. If you're thinking of going towards that mountain, you'd better be a damn good persuasive speaker.
