I AM SUPER BAD AT EXTENSIVE PRE-PLOTTING but here we go

Player Name: Iddy
Preferred Contact: Plurk, PMs, or a comment to the stickied info post that's in all my character journals.
Time Zone: EST
Personal Style: Sometimes I'm a fast tagger and sometimes I'm on the slower side, but either way, I'm always up for backtagging. As for prose vs. brackets, I usually default to brackets, but am equally down for either and if you switch styles on me I'm always down to go along with it.
OOC Limits: I don't really have any hard nos in terms of subjects/themes; for me, it's really more about how a thing is handled than anything else. If you want to introduce a heavy topic or a potentially squicky thing into a thread, I'll probably be down for it, but I'd prefer an OOC check-in if it's something that's going to come out of nowhere/not something that's been naturally lead up to in the thread. It makes me feel better if I'm confident that the person I'm playing off of recognizes that it's a serious topic that people might want to avoid or be warned about, even if I don't personally want to avoid it or need warnings for myself.

Andie | Wrench | Fargo TV

[wwrench]

Player Name: Andie
Preferred Contact: ampersandie#8263 on Discord (best), stickyholograms, or PM
Time Zone: CST
Personal Style: I've got a strong preference for prose, but I will match style if you want something different. Mostly I tag in the evenings after my regular 8 - 5, but once in a while I'll throw in some tags while I'm at work. If I'm tagging around in between other obligations I'll grab my fast tags first and might boomerang if things are really speedy, but otherwise it's a steady chipping away with the occasional fits and starts.

I've got a whole system*~ for Wrench's communication right now:
→ American Sign Language is indicated through italics
→ Handwritten or typed Fluid messages are written in Courier New
→ TEXT-TO-VOICE IS TREBUCHET MS AND CAPITAL LETTERS

OOC Limits: My only hardcore OOC trigger is violence centered around the throat or wrists. Somehow I didn't expect this to come up as often as it has, which is meā culpā. It's a horror game, after all. Anyhow, I'd rather not subject Wrench to injury through those means, or use them to injure anyone else. Most other things are open for discussion, though.

Character Name: Wrench, or Wes to very close CR.
Age: 39. Poor guy had his birthday aboard the Titanic back in January, which was a huge bummer. He was in the midst of recovering from amnesia and had basically isolated himself from everyone, so yeah. 39 has been awesome for him so far.
Employment in Deerington:
American Sign Language Professor at Deerington Community College (also available for private tutoring)
Manes on Main Owner and Barber

Residence in Deerington: 90% at the cabin by Lake Tomie with howlett, suchmiracles, speed_of_snark, and dividingline. 10% on the seventh floor of David Cliff Apartments.
Day to Day Activities: : You're more than welcome to assume that you can run into Wrench at Deerington Community College or at his barbershop on East Main Street any hour of any day, or wandering around town as he offers private tutoring in various locations. He also spends a good amount of time hunting, fishing, trapping, and foraging around the cabin, each with varying levels of success. He is a (hopeful) regular at B&B's Restaurant just before they open for morning service. But don't worry; he's not good enough to be cooking your eggs just yet. He also hangs out plenty at Pixie's Booze and Moves, especially when Kurt is working the bar or just after his shift, when they can practice their dance moves.

About This Character: Wrench is a former hitman who worked for -- and was largely raised up within -- the Fargo crime syndicate. Because of that, both his canon and his personal history are heavy on gun violence, general violence, murder, and kidnapping. I assume based on canon clues he was also coercively kidnapped as a child and groomed to become a hitman, so be aware. SPOILERS: He's taken from a canon point where he's five years out from the incident that killed his former partner (hey dividingline, welcome back) and completely obliterated the Fargo syndicate. The five years prior were largely spent with him on the run. Just before his introduction to Deerington, he was captured and on his way to federal prison.

Present Life: Wrench views Deerington as the best place he could possibly be right now, and is generally trying to adjust to the most "normal" life he's ever lived, in between bouts of torture and strange incidents with monsters. Still, he'd take this place over where he comes from any day of the week. (A point that I'd like to create some eventual friction for him with.) He's enjoying the company of the men in the cabin and developing some really, really strong connections (as is his canon tendency).

Right now, Wrench is in the process of figuring out for himself who he is, apart from the tool that he's been used as for most of his life. What can and what would he do if left entirely to his own devices? He's basically accepted Deerington at this point and has moved from questioning how he got here to using this place as an opportunity to try everything life has denied him.

Obviously one of the most recent major occurrences is that his former partner, Grady (Numbers) is in Deerington, and not particularly delighted to find Wrench seemingly moved on and shacked up. While Wrench has had five years to adjust to being without his partner, Grady's entry into Deerington is from a much more immediate canon point. Therefore, it's quite different for him to see Wrench acting without him. Grady's mentality is also pulling Wrench back towards some fragments of his own life that he mistakenly thought he'd overcome.

Future Ideas:
→ If there are characters actively working to find a way out of Deerington or dismantle the entire "system," I'd love to create some eventual friction between them and Wrench, as he does not want to have to go home.
→ Despite the fact that things are relatively comfortable for him right now, Wrench is a guy who suffered a lot of manipulation and grooming to make him into a person who once killed on command. I'd love to find some folks who might convince him to use those violent talents for nefarious purposes.
→ Manes on Main needs Sleepers with unique physical characteristics to continue to develop these products and treatments Wrench wants to sell. Feathers, fur, scales, shells, tails, whatever! Also people whose talents might mean they need to take extra care, like speedsters with road rash on their feet or magic users whose magic can cause repeated physical injury. Whatever. Bring him customers.
→ American Sign Language students are always welcome, either via Deerington Community College or private instruction. Wrench would love to trade knowledge and talent, so if your character has a cool skill to share and would like to learn ASL in exchange, please hit him up.
→ Wrench has become absolutely fascinated by magic, and I would love the opportunity to explore this further with other magic-users. If your character thinks they can teach Wrench how to wield magic, that would be a fun thing to explore. Even if they can't, though, he'd love to try to learn from them.
→ I'd like to develop some CR in the direction of Wrench becoming fiercely (and possibly violently) protective of some folks. He's basically his canon's avenging angel, and I want to see that side of him develop into a space where he might get up to some of his old tricks if the people he cares about are threatened.
→ I've been playing with the sin of envy over the past couple of months, and really using this to jumpstart some latent feelings that Wrench has for being one of the least powerful people in Deerington (to his mind) right now. As a perfectly average man living in a house with a bunch of mutants and surrounded by people with incredible powers from mind-bending places, he feels pretty blah about that. I'd like to explore this either as a point of friction, or as an opportunity for Wrench to work himself mad trying to compensate for it.

CR You Want: Taking all comers, honestly. Wrench has reached a point of utter fascination over the fact that there are so many people here to talk to, and so many who are willing to take the time to talk to him. He's been living in his mind for the last half-decade, and the fact that everyone here is from a different place with different experiences is overwhelming in the best way for him. Come tell him about yourself.
CR You Don't Want:What even is this, LOL.

Additional Comments/Dumb Shit:

Mazikeen | Lucifer (TV)

[bearattack]

Character Name: Mazikeen/Maze
Age: EXTREMELY OLD, as in older-than-the-Earth-itself old, though she's not very loud about that fact; she's not 100% trying to hide it the way she's trying to hide her demonness, but she's not shouting it from the rooftops either. She looks like she's maybe in her thirties, and is fine with people assuming that that's the case.
Employment in Deerington: F.E.A.R., where she's a combat specialist and an absolutely terrible ambassador. Her description of the organization has turned off at least one potential recruit. Oops???
Residence in Deerington: Prospero Townhouses
Day to Day Activities: She probably spends a decent-ish amount of time at Lucifer's bar, as well as patrolling the streets looking for things that need fighting. If you need an asshole rescuer, she is 100% your gal.

About This Character: Maze is a demon living undercover as a human (though in Deerington, where lots of different species and supernatural abilities are represented, she's okay with letting people assume she's a powered human). When the devil decided that ruling hell sucked, she hopped up to LA with him to act as his bodyguard. It took her a while to settle in, but she's pretty happy living among humanity by now, even though interacting with humans is weird and confusing and sometimes kind of sucky. She's also pretty solidly decided that she wants to get better at all the messy, vulnerable emotions that demons usually heavily suppress. She's not that great at it yet, but she's Doing Her Best.
Any Warnings: She tortured souls in hell for literal millennia, and she was very, very good at it. She's not going around doing it for fun anymore, but she's not that sorry about her past, either.

Present Life: She really misses her social circle back in LA, and is trying to create one for herself here, despite the fact that she's really not that good at making friends. The average Deerington resident is more forgiving of her being an awkward weirdo than the average LA resident is, though, so she has that going for her.
Future Ideas: I have no concrete plans for her atm, and I usually like playing things by ear!

CR You Want: Awkward friendships! Complicated frienemies! People for her to care about! People who fight, hate, and/or generally distrust demons getting close to her and then finding out about her true nature somehow, because even though she's currently about as Good Demon^TM as a demon can get she's still lying about it like an idiot! The last one in particular is 1000% my dream and I would love to play out some CR arcs like that.
CR You Don't Want: Nothing, really!

jesse | peter parker jr & the mute

[vlogged]

Player Name: Jesse
Preferred Contact: rebelled
Time Zone: GMT
Personal Style: I default to action tags, but will follow the other person's lead. Text spam is always an A+ to me. And backtagging is a way of life.
OOC Limits: I play a literal teenager, so that puts smut off the cards completely with him. Other than that, I'm here for any and all types of horror. That said, if there's anything particularly heavy happening, I'd prefer to talk it out first.

Pan | Fern | Adventure Time

[laminae]

Player Name: Pan
Preferred Contact: diremuta@plurk, pan#2663@discord
Time Zone: EST
Personal Style: I mostly tag evenings/weekends and strongly prefer brackets but am willing to match styles. I'd prefer some amount of pre-plotting (even just a 'hey here's what our thread is about') as it gives me either a goal to works towards, or some theme/concept/etc. to keep in mind when threading.
OOC Limits: No smut please.  

Character Name: Fern
Age: 16
Employment in Deerington: Weapons and combat specialist at F.E.A.R, which I think mostly translates to him loitering around the building when he's bored, needs some indoor training space, or wants to hang out with Varian while he's doing science-y things instead of actually doing work. No other job and no school, that's for nerds.
Residence in Deerington: A greenhouse-treehouse near Lake Tomie. 
Day to Day Activities: Fern can be found out in forested areas, particularly around Lake Tomie, and at F.E.A.R.'s headquarters. Since he doesn't work or attend school he generally just wanders around during the day a lot.

About This Character: Fern is the result of Adventure Time's main character, Finn, getting turned into a sentient sword and then merging with another sentient cursed sword, the Grass Sword. Physically, that means he's now made out of grass and has various plant powers. Mentally, that means he has two separate minds making up his Fern self: that of a human teenager who grew up in a post-apocalyptic Earth (and used to be a cosmic entity of change), and an eldritch horror octopus-spider who likes said human teenager but influences his darker thoughts and feelings. Fern's self esteem is essentially non-existent so he's often extremely self-loathing, and he generally thinks violence solves everything. On top of all that he has severe problems with his identity, having lost his previous one as Finn, and frequently questions his personhood. He has a lot of pent-up frustration and emotional instability, and on really bad days this can cause him to have destructive melt downs.

Any Warnings: Being made out of grass Fern comes with buckets of body horror! On top of that his self esteem is in shambles, he hates himself, and has a lot of issues with his identity. He also has very violent tendencies. Grass Demon comes with cephalopod and spider imagery.

Present Life: Fern has had a looot going on these last couple of months. He had a rough time on the Titanic due to some of his close cr getting amnesia, which kicked off his abandonment complex, and he took it all very hard. It culminated in him trying to decapitate Peter Graham, and though he failed at that he hasn't suffered any consequences (aside from some mental suffering due to hurting Luna) from the attempt. In Rapture he went through some emotional turbulence dealing with the amnesia fallout, facing down some Sodder monsters, and confusing other people's emotions with his own via blue and gold strings. Grass Demon also wound up with red strings to the Nogitsune, the Mind Flayer, and Paimon, and a demon fam was born.

This month in an attempt to better establish a sense of identity and direction in his life, Fern has decided to swear an oath of fealty to Paimon, and will be serving him as a knight. Because serving a demon king of hell is totally better than getting a job or attending school, right? He's also having something of a breakdown due to Will's death, and the Soul Eater weaponry even bringing up past trauma.

In lighter events, Grass Demon is thrilled it's spring and is happy to be able to grow all kinds of flora. His chance to communicate with other like-minded demon-creatures means he's stretching his tentacles a bit more and learning out to interact with people independently, without Finn being part of the equation. Fern is also learning the acoustic guitar - Finn was always very musical, and the Grass Demon is apparently good enough at the flute to possibly cast evocation spells, so Fern is picking the guitar up very quickly.

Future Ideas: I'm still very open to Fern having to deal with the consequences of his actions towards NPCs and other Sleepers (e.g. killing Cliff last year, trying to decapitate Peter on the Titanic)! Fern you're a shit and need to stop getting away with hurting people, geez.

Him also dedicating himself to a demon king should probably be Concerning to people, especially to people who like Peter and anyone who is already unsure about Fern's mental state. This boy really needs to be in therapy.
CR You Want:
• He does very well with morally grey cr, since he consciously compartmentalizes the bad sides of people he likes and is pretty awful himself.
• Alternately, people who might clash with his emotional volatility and violence-is-always-the-solution way of thinking.
• Gardeners/plant enthusiasts, or people who would think his grass thing is creepy/weird/interesting.
• Nonhumans in general, since humanity/a lack of it and being an object are big parts of his character. This includes anyone who might be interested in the Grass Demon!
• Grass Demon is available in the Great Sleep for cr specifically with him. Unlike Fern he's super chill most of the time.
• Anything else!
CR You Don't Want: None!

Preferred Contact: favoritings, disco:carly#5387 or PM.
Time Zone: EST.
Personal Style: Typically I default to action brackets, but I will happily adapt to whatever style the other person is more comfortable with. I’ll also backtag into oblivion, but have been known to boomerang a thread or two depending on time of day and whether or not schedules align for that sort of thing.
OOC Limits: Most subjects are quite honestly open to discussion; as long as we talk it out beforehand, chances are I’ll be fine with playing it out. The only thing I’m a hard no on is any sexual violence, but aside from that, as long as all players involved are on the same page and communicating in regards to darker plots I’m good with just about everything.

[eudaimonikos]

SO MICHAEL is a demon who tortured humans for millenia, made some human friends, and is now on the other side of that particular character arc, having learned to manage the weird emotions humans inspire at least somewhat well and generally become a Good Demon. He's making zero effort to hide any of this from anyone! These two should totally talk!

He's no longer quite so wary of other demons, things at home having settled down a lot, but all his efforts to make other demons see where he's coming from on this human stuff have been spectacular failures; he'd really enjoy having someone to relate to.

Blue | 10th Doctor | Doctor Who

[borntolove]

Player Name: Blue
Preferred Contact: weefolk or PMs
Time Zone: EST, GMT, etc.
Personal Style: Prose, action? Both Backtag haven or quick as dickens? Depends on the day
OOC Limits: Detail Gore

Character Name: The Doctor
Age: 902
Employment in Deerington: Being The Doctor
Residence in Deerington: With Mob and Sally Sparrow (currently wandering everywhere as abilities are on)
Day to Day Activities: Helping out in any way possible

About This Character: The Doctor is an alien that appears to be human. The Doctor knows a lot. Basically beyond human knowledge (aka how to travel faster than the speed of light) and is skilled in all the shops (wood, metal, electric, etc)

Has a Hero Complex.

The Doctor can MacGyver anything as long as the items are available aka being able to make a VHS tape recorder with items found in 1953

This particular face of The Doctor personally wise; usually wants to be everyone's friend and also the best face of The Doctor to listen and is to a degree a therapist.

His flaw is that he loves too much and believes deeply in forgiveness.

This face can also rage as much as he can love - if this face gives you a chance to change - take it. And don't double-cross because no second chances

Any Warnings: Genocide of The Time War and at times this face can have suicidal tendencies. Which there's an opt out post if you don't want these to come up

Present Life:Currently, Ten is trying to get over Rose being gone and like always, helping, however, he can.

Currently, focusing on Gwen, Credence, Gellert, Amara with them becoming versions of themselves and fathering Mob.

Connecting with Sally Sparrow, who this face hasn' met yet and trying to understand why Harriet called on Torchwood on Christmas

Working on his War PSTD trama with Vira; aka his hating of guns

Future Ideas: Open to all the things

CR You Want: ALL
CR You Don't Want: Unless you're Rose or Captain Jack there is no serious romance

Shea | Nancy | Oliver Twist (CRAU)

[stauncherhearted]

Player Name: Shea
Preferred Contact: Plurk! sheakespeare
Time Zone: CST
Personal Style: Any and all. I'm down for backtags, and I'm generally pretty quick to respond? My tags do come at odd hours though as I work an overnight shift more often than not. Hello boredom my old friend, there's nothing happening at 3 AM.
OOC Limits: I really don't think I have any? Eye horror freaks me out but I can deal with it.

Character Name: Nancy Bellrose if you have to ask for a last name.
Age: 22
Employment in Deerington: Future Bartender at The Deerington Public House.
Residence in Deerington: 216 David Cliff Apts
Day to Day Activities: Working, trying to make her magic work. She's seriously considering getting herself a pet. Nancy's also often found walking about, trying to get the lay of the land. She's more comfortable when she knows her way around.

About This Character: Alright so Nancy is a CRAU from everyone's favorite high school required reading Oliver Twist. You may also know her from the musical. She's CRAUed from undergrounds where she is a witch. Her magic is more ritual based and intention based, a lot less wand-waving. She's 100% your mom friend and has 0% self-preservation.
She's also an alcoholic,
Any Warnings: Woof, okay so Nancy was raised by an abusive kidsman named Fagin, who trained her to be a pickpocket and when she was thirteen had her selling her body and her blood. This was around the time she moved in with her (much older) violent werewolf boyfriend Bill Sikes. Bill is incredibly abusive seriously he murders her in canon and she loves him more than anything. To put it succinctly there's a CW on her for child abuse, sexual abuse, sex-work, blood-work, violence, alcohol abuse, and Charles Dickens.

Present Life: Nancy's on her own once again! She spent a few years without Bill before, while he was in prison, and that lead to some interesting complications. Without Fagin around to keep her under his thumb, however, or any of her brothers (the gang of pick pockets) to tie her down, she's really able to figure herself out for once. She'll be bartending, offering a bit of magic here and there, and generally trying to make the best of this new situation.
Future Ideas: open to any and all ideas

CR You Want: Everything. Seriously. There are a few characters here that Nancy knows a version of from back home, but I will avoid that if need-be. She's def down for romantic relations, too, even though she's literally done that before during a physically-separated-from-Bill time and it didn't end well.
CR You Don't Want: Not at this time.

Alfie Solomons | Peaky Blinders

[devoutish]

Character Name: Alfie Solomons
Age: Late forties
Employment in Deerington: Nowhere yet, but even with the bare necessities taken care of by the town, he's going to grudgingly see the need for it at some point. He's really supposed to be retired, so he'll probably go for something quiet and low-stakes (part-time Russian teacher at one of the schools, maybe???), but it'll also be very easy to rope him into criminal shenanigans on the side.
Residence in Deerington: Clarke Acres
Day to Day Activities: Walking his dog around town, poking his nose into things, and generally trying to get the lay of the land.

About This Character: Alfie is a retired gangster from 1920s England; for many years, he was in control of a powerful Jewish gang in London. He's not indiscriminately violent or the sort of guy who's going to start rampaging around slaughtering innocent civilians, but under the right circumstances, he's quite capable of remorseless brutality, and he's definitely someone to be careful around.
Any Warnings: See here!

Present Life: He's new, everything is confusing, and he's still not 100% sure this isn't a lengthy dream. He's decided to operate under the assumption that it isn't, though, because the consequences of not taking it seriously when he should would be a lot more severe than the consequences of taking it seriously when he shouldn't. He still hasn't really gotten his bearings yet, though, a fact that he doesn't particularly like.
Future Ideas: I have no concrete plans for him atm, and I usually like playing things by ear! I'd love to get him involved in crime in some fashion, though. He'll have no interest in being someone else's underling, and he'll also have no interest in trying to build an enterprise of his own from the ground up, but if he were acting as a free agent he could conceivably get into some shit. His work at home is pretty practical, though, and is generally focused around things like illegal bookmaking, under-the-table salesmanship, and protection racketeering; chaos for chaos's sake isn't really his bag.

CR You Want: Straight-forward friendships and enemy-ships are always welcome, but given the nature of Alfie's character, I have a special love for CR that comes with moral complications. Do you have a character who would get along well with him on a personal level, but who would really chafe against his criminality, and who might even work against him on that front? Do you have a character who would not get along with him at all, but who would be up for grudgingly working alongside him at a time when they had the same goal (ex. during an event or a similarly high-stakes situation)? BRING THEM ALL TO ME.
CR You Don't Want: Nothing, really!

laura | miguel o'hara, marvel comics

[webcape]

Player Name: laura
Preferred Contact: ruffians, phonomancer#0144 on discord
Time Zone: london, innit — so gmt currently, gmt+1 in the summer.
Personal Style: i default to action because i'm a lazy SOB, but i can do prose. i will backtag forever, partly because we're all busy and partly because i oscillate between being a speedy fucking tagger and slow as molasses.
OOC Limits: nah, fam, i'm good. but i've got a permissions/opt out post for miguel here.

Character Name: miguel o'hara.
Age: LAUGHS IN COMICS 30s, probably. he's described as "sounding" older than peter parker (circa-2014), and peter was clarified to be 28 by the end of slott's run on asm, sooo. early 30s makes sense. or as much sense as one can make of marvel's sliding fucking timeline.
Employment in Deerington: i need to figure this out, tbh! he's a geneticist by trade, although has experience in r&d as well but like... gestures at deerington. f.e.a.r could be an interesting shout though.
Residence in Deerington: david cliff apts, #731.
Day to Day Activities: UH UNSURE RIGHT NOW, this will be worked on once he's actually settled in game.

About This Character: LORD. he's the spider-man of 2099, but he's kind of like if you took peter parker and went "okay, the science stuff is cool, but what if he was a total dick?" like, admittedly, he's trying to be less of a dick than he has spent ... all... of his life ... being... but it's a very low bar. he's not like, kaine levels of asshole, but he's not a people person. (am i selling this character to you?) he's incredibly short-tempered, not exactly great at the secret identity and pretty accurately described as a hacked off cat.

oh, and he has red eyes and fangs, just as an fyi.

Any Warnings: miguel's backstory is kind of a shitshow — a lot of it's unlikely to come up in threads unprompted, but relate to alcoholism/substance abuse, domestic violence, and a general dismissiveness of mental health issues.

Present Life: he is "trying to make up for the fact that he was an uncaring jerk for most of his life". aka yes, miguel is trying to become the best version of himself, but his temperament still sucks. HONESTLY LIKE i'm still in the process of getting settled in game.
Future Ideas: honestly, i'm not 100% sure at present — this is another of those "have to wait and see how he settles in game", as well as relatively dependent on the kind of cr he end up forming. canonically speaking, he was in the middle of 1. trying to find his way back to 2099 and 2. trying to improve the timeline, the former of which (at least) isn't going to change on account of him being in deerington. it'll just be a slightly different question of "how", given the comparative lack of means.

CR You Want: with a few exceptions, i'm aware that miguel's cr will probably start off as neutral at best, antagonistic and negative at worst. miguel isn't much of a people person, but he tries his best to help (it's #complicated, alright). that said, for as much as familial relationships tend to be difficult, family is still very important to him, so anything that can (work towards) filling that gap would be fab.
CR You Don't Want: we're all good.

wynonna earp | show of the same name

[earps]

Character Name: Wynonna Earp, although she also responds to "Earp," "hey you," "the girl with the big-ass gun or the big-ass... ass," you name it
Age: 30
Employment in Deerington: Bartender at the fake Hair of the Dog, though she's definitely someone you can ask about how to get into the real one.
Residence in Deerington: 1433 Gatlin Drive, a farmhouse out in Clarke Acres, where she lives with Waverly, Frank, Cliff, Laura and Brianna, as well as a verifiable menagerie of animals.
Day to Day Activities: Wynonna, queen of non-routine and keeping things unexpected, definitely has something resembling regular habits here in Deerington (surprise, surprise) and has sort of acquired a few usual haunts. In the mornings (or early afternoons, depending how late she's been at the bar working the night before), she usually pops into Dearly Diner for breakfast (or coffee, at the very least) and some face time with that manager dude, or Jane Dough for coffee and a pastry of some kind, depending on her mood. In terms of work, she's on at the bar either in the late afternoon or the evening, and aside from that she tends to go to the movie theater to check out whatever's playing, the thrift shop to score some vintage duds, the pizza place for a good slice, or the supermarket for some questionable choices in grocery shopping. If you've seen her driving around town she's usually on her giant black motorcycle or in her blue-and-white Ford truck, though she's also made one or two appearances as a passenger in a certain GTO Pontiac.

About This Character: On the surface, Wynonna can come off as an easygoing personality laced with frequent amounts of toughness and snarking all wrapped up in fringed leather — and that's not entirely inaccurate. But the truth is that she's sort of damaged goods thanks to a super traumatic childhood that's given her a lifelong subscription of abandonment and trust issues, so the surface-level joking is basically just her way of keeping others at a distance.

She's made no secret of the fact that she's the great-great-granddaughter of Wyatt Earp (yes, that Wyatt Earp), or that she's technically the latest in a long line of Earp heirs responsible for ridding their home turf of all the resurrected outlaws Wyatt ever put a bullet in — yes, that means demons, with the magical gun that kills them to boot. So she's definitely got experience dealing with the freaky, and even if Deerington has some stuff the likes of which she's never seen, she's pretty capable of keeping her head on straight long enough to take on whatever this town throws her way.
Any Warnings: Her application sums up most of it in terms of general warnings from her canon, including violence/death, parental abuse, alcoholism, depression/mental health issues and more, but happy to avoid those subjects in any threads if needed.

Present Life: Putting it mildly? The last couple of months have been something of an emotional shitshow for Wynonna. She came off a pretty rough time in Rapture in February after two members of the farmhouse crew died, not to mention being without her memory for the entirety of the Titanic event in January, and settling back in Deerington officially gave her a false sense of security about her loved ones — because she's about to be dealing with the unexpected and very horrible death of her little sister Waverly, which is going to launch her into a grief tailspin for the latter half of March, during which she'll be pretty closed-off and withdrawn from everyone save a select group of people until Waves resurrects. After that, she's probably going to be hovering like a protective big sister bear even after the death flu passes. Folks are more than welcome to handwave that they've seen Wynonna hanging around her sister's usual haunts as her not-so-subtle way of keeping an eye on things.

Big Emotional Moments aside, she feels like she's mostly got a handle on what this place is like and what she's going to have to face, and she's more protective of her loved ones and close CR than ever because of her experience dealing with the supernatural on a regular basis back home. Slowly, she's opening up to more and more people, including the ones she lives with, and she's accepted the fact that, based on what has been revealed to them so far, she's needed here for something, even if she doesn't know what that something is yet — so she's willing to stick around and help this town with its problems before the time comes for her to go home. (Side note: If you have a particularly keen set of observational skills, you might notice that she's taken to wearing a very understated ring on her left hand, although she has started opening up and telling closer CR about her capital-e Engagement to Frank as of last month.)
Future Ideas: Moving forward, I'd really just like to focus on building and growing Wynonna's existing relationships, as well as continuing to introduce her to new people. She has a lot of great, dynamic CR that offers her lots of varying opportunities to interact with folks, from trying to mentor any kids that somehow think she's cool to hanging out with fellow hunters to having her world rocked a little by non-humans and Sleepers with powers and things of that nature. I don't have any Big Plans for her at the moment, but Wynonna will always and forever be available to help your character tackle any monster problems (mostly because I like writing fighty/action scenes for her, so any chance she has to kick ass is thoroughly welcomed). She's also forever available for serving your characters drinks at the bar and listening to their problems, and if you want an unbiased ear doling out debatably good advice, you can count on her.

CR You Want: Friends, found family, kids for her to secretly mom as a Secret Mom, drinking buddies, diner buddies, people for her to serve drinks to, folks with supernatural/demon-type experience, honestly everyone and anyone because I want her to meet all the people.
CR You Don't Want: Ideally, not super negative CR (unless there's an event-motivated reason behind it) but I'd be OK with her having someone she gently butts heads or snarks with from time to time. No romantic CR because she's very happily spoken for.

Brianna Berenson | GONE

[fayzedandconfused]

Player Name: Lor
Preferred Contact: errorchord#5438 on discord, errorchord
Time Zone: EST
Personal Style: I prefer action brackets pretty heavily to prose, and I backtag a lot. I can occasionally boomerang stuff but not super reliably.
OOC Limits: n/a

Character Name: Brianna Berenson
Age: 14
Employment in Deerington: She doesn't work or go to school lol
Residence in Deerington: The farmhouse at 1433 Gatlin Drive
Day to Day Activities: Brianna is a superhero and patrols the town regularly. She can be found hanging out around the farmhouse, playing in the arcade or at the rollerblading rink, and just generally loitering around being a teenager.

About This Character: Brianna is a spitfire, full of energy, totally confident in herself to the point of obnoxiousness most of the time. She thinks of herself as a superhero and will introduce herself that way to other people. She has super speed and likes to show off. She usually carries weapons with her #yikes. She's recently come to terms with the fact that she might !!like girls!!, and also that she died in canon before arriving in Deerington.
Any Warnings: Brianna's canon deals heavily with violence against children, child death, and generally horrible things happening to children—including starvation, plagues, fires, brainwashing, torture, etc. It's A Lot, and I totally get not wanting to engage with that.

Present Life: Like I said above, Brianna has just started coming to terms with the fact that she likes girls romantically, and she's also just started processing the fact that she's dead in canon.
Future Ideas: More coming to terms with herself, maybe making future plans like going to school/getting a job.

CR You Want: More friends her age, other dead people she can bond with, parental figures, maybe someday a Girlfriend

Time Zone: EST.
Personal Style: Generally willing to adapt. Kind of slide between quick and slow depending on my schedule.
OOC Limits: Probably no's around but I'm at least willing to discuss ideas. Just give me a shout if you're unsure.

Character Name: Ruby Rose
Age: Student
Employment in Deerington: Student/Huntress/Professional Helper Outer
Residence in Deerington: 6010 Swan Lake
Day to Day Activities: Ruby is an adorable action girl. She might be out there fighting monsters, Drinking milkshakes, Reading comic books, flailing frantically at school life, oogling any fancy weapons people have, and just being a general all around dork.

About This Character: Ruby started out as your average girl going to monster fighting school trying to be a Huntress. Then the school blew up so she's out there just trying to make a difference. She's had to go from wanting to be liked and making friends to having the weight of the world thrust on her shoulders. She takes in stride and does her very best though.

She goes from really laid back and goofy to serious when it calls for it. Easy to bounce between slice of life or more serious moments.
Any Warnings: Potential for talks about death or loss of limbs. End of the world anime kind of talk.
Present Life: Getting used to the setting. She spent her first two months in game on the Titanic and in Rapture. So she's just getting a handle on what her new day to day life is going to be like. She has a handful of people from her canon with her so she's got a mostly stable home life aside from a few hiccups here and there.

Her main goal is to get into a groove where she can hopefully do what she does best: Help people out and try to live life to it's fullest. She's attempting school at the moment but long term goal would be to have her working closer with F.E.A.R. She also has a person from home actively trying to kill her. So that's always fun.
Future Ideas: Right now rolling with the punches. She's slowly getting more interested in the meta plot and learning how things work here. She has a magic questioning answering lamp that I'm doing some real slow burn to work towards using in the game. Just waiting for the right moment to put it to use.

CR You Want: Ruby bounces pretty well off positive and negative CR. More friends are always great but getting some negative CR in there is always nice too. Giving her some mentors or people that'll actually push her to not just bottle up how stressed she can get would be good. She's kind of an emotional punching bag too if people need it.
CR You Don't Want: I didn't draw the line at murder. Let's talk and discuss.

peter parker | mcu

[vlogged]

Character Name: Peter Parker
Age: 15
Employment in Deerington: Full time superhero? He's unemployed, though may end up working at the movie theatre part time soon.
Residence in Deerington: The toy house :|b
Day to Day Activities: Right now, not much. Generally, he's building things for the toys, or taking care of all the human stuff that's needed in the house (bc he owes the toys enough already. dnw to make them run around for him!!) Nights are filled with webswinging. And there's the occasional trip to the movie theatre, or the university. Temporarily, he's also spending time in Tony's old place too.

About This Character: Kid. Spider. Superpowers. Dork. You all know the story by now, so let's leave it at that.
Any Warnings: He died during the Titanic plot, and had a friend kill his zombie aunt a few months before that. They're both still constantly on his mind, so may come up in meta text/tags.

Present Life: Right now, he's still dealing with his first death/having survivors guilt. He's also working through Tony leaving too, which is even more fun. Peter's currently living with the Toy Story crew, and they're...pretty much the only people around that he's happy to act like a kid with. So he's also focusing on doing everything he can to make life easier for the toys too. Which means a lot of designing and building equipment for them. Aaand apparently it now includes learning how to play D&D so he can set up a session for Buzz.

Future Ideas: I still want to get him to sign up for school and/or a job at the cinema. I'd also like to get him more heavily involved with the metaplot, because he still wants to find a way for everyone to get back home again. They shouldn't be stuck in Deerington gdi!!

CR You Want: Everything. But specifically, I would love to find him some more friends his age who will do dumb kid stuff with him. Or just people who'll generally help him to relax and stop worrying about things he really doesn't have any control over. Also pls give him more superheroes to idolise too. Oh, and even more mentors bc you can never have too many.
CR You Don't Want: Romantic stuff. Other than that, nothing's off-limits.

Additional Comments/Dumb Shit:

[bearattack]

Oh man, they should definitely talk, especially since her reaction to him not hiding anything would be "LITERALLY WHY, THAT JUST MAKES HUMANS HATE AND FEAR YOU". (Her reaction to the very reasonable rebuttal of "Well, doesn't lying to them make the problem even worse?" would be "NOT IF THEY NEVER FIND OUT THAT I'M LYING, DUMBASS.")

Your intro has actually been on my to-tag list for a bit, so expect a reply from her there soon! She likely won't admit to being a demon even if he does, but honestly, the way she'll react might make it easy for him to guess.

OOC Limits: I'm pretty easy going about anything, so long as plot ideas are chatted out or at least a base is touched. Godmodding is the big no-no.

Character Name: Daenerys Targaryen
Age: 17
Employment in Deerington: Currently unemployed
Residence in Deerington: 422 Prospero Townhouse
Day to Day Activities: She's been training her dragons everyday, at least attempting to. She's been taking them a safe distance away to let them hunt and fly as they grow bigger, while attempting to encourage them to follow her commands. Aside from that, her days are relatively empty. She's started to volunteer at the clinic, so she's there a bit more as well.

About This Character: Book Dany is very nurturing and sweet, she's got a large fascination for different cultures, people, etc. She likes to be out in the crowd and being a part of things, rather than being stuck in her castle. Now that she's technically not queen (not while she's here at least), she's trying to indulge in her longing for the lost childhood she never had, as well as learning how to train her dragons and ready them for when they return. She's friendly and approachable, so feel free to just walk up to her.
Any Warnings: Rough past is kind of her motivation. She was married young, abused and raped. These are things that you can opt out of, if need be. I have an opt out post on my profile. ASOIAF is just as triggering as GoT.

Present Life: Dany is getting more involved with the Vampire Diaries cast. She was nearly sacrificed during the equinox, but succumbed from an overdose of the paralyzing agent. Because she had Elena's blood in her system, she changed into a vampire. Klaus and Elena have a small tug of war over who will look after her. She's more concerned with becoming further unhinged and dangerous, like her father. Now that she's a vampire with dragons, she knows that she could be seen as an even bigger threat, so she's worried about that. She'll try and overcompensate by looking after others.
Future Ideas: At the moment, learning to be a vampire, learning to fight and having her dragons get bigger.

CR You Want: Any! Friends, frenemies, enemies, flirtations, everything.
CR You Don't Want: I'm open to anything.

dana polk | the cabin in the woods

[unvirgin]

Character Name: Dana Polk
Age: 21
Employment in Deerington: Part-time sales consultant at Paintbrush Kingdom; part-time art student at Deerington Community College.
Residence in Deerington: 13 E. Main Street with Wanda Maximoff
Day to Day Activities: Dana's trying — and mostly succeeding — at having something resembling a normal life and schedule in a town that feels equal parts quiet and all-too-familiar considering her canon. Since her own college degree was somewhat interrupted thanks to the literal end of the world back home, she's decided to enroll at the community college to continue where she left off (do college credits transfer through into the dreamscape? who knows) and has taken a part-time job at the art supply store to supplement her income/help pay for groceries and things like that. When she's not studying at the coffee shop, working or attending classes she's probably exploring the town in the company of any of her friends or sequestered somewhere with her sketchbook trying to draw something. Now that she's inconveniently become a werewolf too, she sometimes spends her days heading out to the woods and practicing her shift so that full moon transformations aren't as intense or painful as they were for her at the start.

About This Character: Dana hails from a canon wherein the plot of every formulaic slasher movie has been explained as a ritual sacrifice: a group of young adults, each member identified with a certain classic horror trope, is offered up in tribute to ancient gods in order to appease them and prevent them from rising up and ending the world to remake it themselves. Dana and her friends had the misfortune of being the latest batch plucked up for sacrifice when they left town to spend the weekend at Curt's family cabin, where they inadvertently conjured up a zombie redneck torture family and were basically manipulated into getting picked off one by one. Some of them made it in spite of the odds, navigating down through the underground Facility beneath and discovering the truth for themselves (along with the bevy of ancient and mythological monsters being held to be wielded as instruments of death in potential future rituals), but the world was literally ending as Dana was pulled into Deerington, so it's understandable that she might want to stick around here for a while.
Any Warnings: Dana's a character from a comedy-horror canon that gets pretty meta at times, but there are warnings for gore/monster and horror violence, drugging, manipulation, etc., so if there's anything you want me to steer clear of in her tags, let me know.

Present Life: SO ya girl's a werewolf. It's been a really interesting cluster of months for Dana so far, because given that she's somewhat of a more introverted type, woofing out has almost made her a bolder and more direct character in terms of expressing her intentions and making her feelings known more plainly than she would have before her transformation. But she's also very conscious of the fact that most of the people in her immediate circle are human, and given that she's stronger and prone to certain spikes of emotion, hurting someone she cares about is always sort of in the back of her mind. She isn't necessarily pushing anyone away these days, but she is trying to be more careful so she doesn't forget her own strength.

Days leading up to the full moon are harder for her in terms of her mood, but she'll be camping out in the basement room rigged up in Kai Parker and Addy Carver's house on the nights she actually has to shift, because it's been tricked out with a bunch of comforting things and being surrounded by the scent of her friends will help keep her calm. Aside from, well, dealing with her woofing problems, she's also trying to figure out how to keep being a normal student and doing semi-normal things (like dating? or having a relationship? maybe with that Sam Winchester fella? the two of them have been seen around town together preeetty frequently lately), but obviously it's not going to be as simple as that in Deerington.
Future Ideas: I still really want Dana's continued wrestling with her condition to be a cornerstone of her plotting in this game; this is a long-term plan that I'm not looking to cure for the foreseeable future. Looking ahead, she'll definitely be trying to get a handle on her new abilities, including her super-senses/strength/speed, as well as the possessiveness and territorial behavior that starts to get progressively worse the closer she gets to the full moon each month. Now that she has a little more control over her abilities and can shift outside of a full moon without trouble, I'd really be interested in doing something to throw a wrench in that, especially if it's something event-related that might affect her impulse control. I'd also potentially like to thread out her even attacking and/or maybe killing another Sleeper while she's too deep in wolf mode to realize what she's doing until she shifts back, so if that's something you'd like to participate in, let me know!

CR You Want: All types! Friends, artists or artistically-inclined types, fellow college students, fellow survivors of supernatural or spoopy events.
CR You Don't Want: Not super negative CR (unless there's an event-motivated reason behind it) but I'm game for her to have the occasional conflict with someone or that person in her life that she just can't seem to say the right things around because she can be kind of a dork.

Additional Comments/Dumb Shit:

bo peep | toy story

[shepherdesses]

Character Name: Bo Peep
Age: it is a mystery, honestly
Employment in Deerington: N/A at the moment.
Residence in Deerington: 408 Prospero Townhouse, aka the House of Toy Feelings
Day to Day Activities: Bo's just trying to find her footing in this town as a toy who is slowwwly working on outing herself to more of her fellow Sleepers. Although she realizes that many of the other toys have made themselves very well-known to others, especially on sight, she's mostly keeping her presence here on the down-low (partly out of a desire for self-preservation, but also because old habits die hard when you're used to staying under the radar where humans, children especially, are involved — and this town is full of them!). So, as of right now, chances are you might just see her zipping around town in her RC car disguised as a skunk, with the exception of the people she's chosen to reveal herself to for specific reasons (and most of those are kids, actually).

About This Character: For most of her life, Bo was confined to the boundaries of a child's bedroom, part of a gentle nightlight lamp along with her trio of equally porcelain (and actually conjoined) sheep, known as Billy, Goat and Gruff (but yes, they are ladies, thank you very much). She typically took on the role of damsel-in-distress for a majority of playtime, dangled over a threatening barrel of monkeys or a "deadly" shark trap in order for a dashing and brave Sheriff Woody to come to her rescue — and behind the scenes, she was more often than not a support system for him, offering him advice and trying to give him perspective about various toy-related existential crises. Eventually, however, her child outgrew the need for her nightlight and she was given away to another family; after that, her timeline is somewhat vague, but she later wound up in the front window display of an antique shop. It was there that she ultimately decided to ditch her lamp and become a "lost toy" of her own volition in order to see the world from beyond the perspective of a shelf, where she'd only be collecting dust anyway.

By the time she's ultimately reunited with Woody, she's been on her own for a while now — well, her and her sheep — and basically thriving. She's still got a secret soft spot for kids and playtime, but she doesn't necessarily worry about assigning worth to herself based on whether or not she belongs to anyone. In many ways, leaving Andy and Molly's house allowed her to really find a new purpose for herself (and unleash her inner badass, lbr) and she's not the toy she used to be, but she likes the one she's turned into.
Any Warnings: No warnings in her application or storyline, but I'll likely only be tagging people with her if we've already discussed any kind of plotting or threads in case anyone would prefer not to opt into interactions with her.

Present Life: A lot of Bo's current journey has been just trying to survive through whatever hells this town chooses to throw at her, but along the way she's been able to really grow and strengthen her relationships with her toy family after several years apart from them, so it's definitely been one of those situations of taking the very good with the real, real bad. (Basically, she is ride or die for her toy family and anyone who hurts them is going to have to deal with her too, even if she's in more stealth mode about it.) She finally 'fessed up to Woody about the fact that they're from diverging canon points, and now he's caught up to her in terms of being from the same place in time, and she's slowly widening her circle of new friends — mostly kids, because she has a real weakness for revealing herself to any child who might be in distress and look like they just need a toy friend to hug.
Future Ideas: No major plans for her right now; I just want to get her more settled, meeting new people, and focus on building her existing relationships, so if you have any ideas for anything you want to do with her specifically, don't hesitate to come at me with ideas!

CR You Want: All kinds! Any interactions may consist of some stealth and misleading before she becomes comfortable enough to reveal her existence, and she's definitely more inclined to do that with non-human CR first. Also kids who would be interested in playing with her or need a hug from a doll, because she's still quietly weak for that!
CR You Don't Want: No super-negative CR unless there's an event-motivated reason behind it; romance isn't really in the cards for her either (because why, but also because she's sort of given her heart away to someone already).

-Unbirth: If you have no clue, don't ask.
-Infantilism/Diaper fetishes or anything similar

the mute | pilgrimage

[themute]

Character Name: The Mute
Age: Late 30's
Employment in Deerington: Unemployed
Residence in Deerington: Diarmuid's cabin
Day to Day Activities: Outside of events, he pretty much runs on a set routine. It generally keeps him around the cabin most of the time. He...pretty much follows Diarmuid wherever he goes, though he does wander the city alone while he's in classes. That's about the only time people will really find him alone. Which is probably a good thing, considering he doesn't talk.

About This Character: He's a former Crusader, who washed up on an Irish shore and was found by a certain novice monk. The monks took him in and effectively saved his life, so now he works as a lay brother for them. Which effectively means he does anything the monks ask of him. He's a mute by choice, even though it isn't technically a religious vow, and has spoken one word in the last five years of his life. The Mute was sent alongside Diarmuid and the others when they went on their pilgrimage, and ultimately ended up giving up his life to protect them. So right now, he sees being brought to Deerington as a continuation of his orders to protect the monks. Which means Diarmuid. And boy has he fucked that one up already.
Any Warnings: Again, he's a former Crusader, so he has a very violent and bloody past. And it's also steeped in religion to boot.

Present Life: He basically lives and breathes Diarmuid right now, which really isn't healthy for him. But he believes he's in the city to protect the boy, and no one is convincing him otherwise!! He has gotten a little better about exploring on his own when he knows Diarmuid is somewhere safe. But he really hasn't gotten involved with anything beyond the cabin and general day to day stuff yet.

Future Ideas: I want him to get stuck in to whatever the next event is, so he can realise that being there isn't really going to make any difference in the long run. I'd also love love love to get him talking to someone with a religious connection. Doubly so if they can read his thoughts/understand him in some way. The guy needs to "talk" to someone who gets why he's reacting the way he is when it comes to being mute/wanting to follow others these days.

CR You Want: Literally everything. He needs friends/people who aren't just Diarmuid to hang out with. Because if he had his way, that's all he wants. So I'd love to get some CR going with people who'll be patient enough to deal with the fact he won't talk. Doubly so if they'll be persistent about trying to get him off alone too. Also, pls direct me towards any kids that need protecting bc he needs some other attachments too.
CR You Don't Want: Not looking for any negative CR at the moment really. But that's mostly because he would be pretty indifferent unless things got physical. And that'll throw any progress he makes right back to square one.
