disasterkins | The Joker

[heresmycard]

Player Name: Lindsay
Preferred Contact: disasterkins
Time Zone: CST
Personal Style: OK with prose or action. I'm a fairly slow tagger and will backtag
OOC Limits: Not much. If something bothers me, I'll drop a message.

Character Name: The Joker or just J
Age: around 30
Employment in Deerington: Still looking!
Residence in Deerington: I still haven't figured it out yet but he probably hides out in some grungy apartment somewhere. He's also drawn to abandoned buildings and warehouses. He's basically a raccoon in human form.
Day to Day Activities: Right now he's still in the "observational" and "resource gathering" stages of his time in the game. This means he'll be getting to know his surroundings by just walking around the place, watching people, checking the library and any other place that might store information. He can also be found scavenging in the junkyard for supplies or makeshift tools/weapons.

About This Character: He's a villain and he can be a pretty dangerous one when he wants to be. With no magical powers, his strengths lie in being cunning, deceptive and absolutely ruthless. This guy has no fear of anything and an incredible tolerance for pain. He has a psychopathic lack of empathy for others yet he's an expert at reading other people and their emotions. Nothing is known about his personal history (though I have my theories) and he likes to keep it that way. The Joker is known for being highly manipulative and often mixes lies and truth together to confuse people. When he's not being actively dangerous, the Joker's behavior is much more "casual" or even playful, meaning he'll behave like he's less dangerous than he really is to make people feel as if he isn't much of a threat.

Basically, he's good for cr that ranges from negative to mildly antagonistic or even kind of playful or friendly depending on who he's interacting with. No matter the case, always expect him to try toying with your character's mind or pushing them toward their darker inclinations. Also, he's a shameless schemer. Would not recommend playing against him in a game of chess.

Any Warnings: You can expect darker subjects in general when it comes to the Joker.

Additional Notes: This Joker does not kill children or animals (unless they attack him first), not for any moral reasons but because he sees nothing to gain from it.

Present Life: Still just getting situated. He's in the middle of a trial that could easily go either way. He's also been observing other characters' virtual trials and learning about their personal lives, skills and misdeeds. While he might not participate in these trials, you can bet that he's watching and studying everyone.
Future Ideas: He'll probably want to know about FEAR and what they do there/what kind of weapons they have. At this point he just wants to learn as much as he can about everything and everyone.

CR You Want: He's new so everything!

The instigator in him is attracted to characters who are in law enforcement or are hero types, especially if they pose an intellectual challenge. These are often his main targets. He gets the most fun out of rivaling them, trying to mess with their heads and their self perception. If you play this type of character, he will probably have his eye on them as a potential target.

Unstable characters. These can be anyone, even other villains, who seem like ticking time bombs. If he encounters someone who seems like they can be pushed off the deep end and into a downward spiral of destructiveness, he will happily provide the push.

Morally gray characters who are prone to engaging in criminal behaviors and are looking for leadership.

Innocent or gullible characters who can be led down a path of corruption.

Incorruptible characters who pose a tough challenge or who just want to frustrate or annoy him.

Really nice characters who will insist on seeing "the best" in him and confuse the shit out of him via simple acts of kindness. Fair warning tho, if they invite him into their home, he will take it as an open invitation to break into their home at 3 AM and root through their fridge/use their personal belongings and probably wear their bathrobe around. Please use caution.

CR You Don't Want: n/a

Re: disasterkins | The Joker

Sorry, Joker, The Doctor falls underneath the last one on the list there.

Though it's more believing and being hopeful. That those who are lost can come around if given the chance.

Looking forward to these two.

[heresmycard]

J might find this attitude initially confusing but once he discovers the Doctor isn't human, things will start to make more sense.

[lightthedarkness]

Usagi will be contacting Joker asking if he's okay after she hears about the fake trial. She's going to be so worried for him.

[heresmycard]

Oh, Usagi, you sweet summer child.

[lightthedarkness]

She does fall under the last two categories (last three but without the corruption option).

I am also somewhat slow as a tagger, but oh my gosh, seeing the Joker here is thrilling to me!! Super looking forward to throwing Blake into the fray. He will probably quietly whisper warnings to his closest CR, but otherwise will sit on his heels to start and see how things go (because it's no fun if he runs his mouth to the network, lbr).

Did you want to keep up on the test drive thread and call that game canon, or start fresh? I'm okay either way. I'm glad to give the Joker a leg up on Blake, if you want that. :D

Speaking of instigators!! Blake's deemed the Ultimate Instigator for this event, so if you want to try to get a follow-up going at some point in the next couple of weeks, I would be game for that, too. \o\

Otherwise, I also play Molly Solverson from Fargo (TV) and she is also a cop and probably will be so distressed by the Joker, but is also the kind of person that might squint to try and see the best in him.

How exciting~~~

[heresmycard]

Yes give me all the cops! Also totally cool with keeping the TDM thread as game canon because 1) I really like that thread and 2) it gives them both kind of a weird insight into each other.

Originally I planned to make an intro post where J asks what everyone's Ultimate titles are to see who has what skills and also to maybe stir up some fights between people sharing similar titles. But with everything already going on in the game, I decided against it. You're more than welcome to participate in J's trial log if you want to but it's understandable if you're already at capacity in terms of new threads.

Whatever form their next interaction takes, I look forward to it!

Oh man, I am so so sorry about my absence. I have to say I've really enjoyed reading the stuff you're doing with the Joker, ahhhh. I'm going to add you on plurk and I would love to discuss where I am with Blake and so on so I can make sure not to step on the Joker's toes while simultaneously allowing him room to step on Blake's toes and hopefully facilitate some excellent CR between these two.

I wish I wouldn't feel as if I've entirely missed the boat on the trial because the deliberations look great. I'm not opposed to having Blake there and voting, although I suspect he would have to vote innocent despite knowing the Joker is far from, just because he'd have a shadow of doubt about the timing.

Either way, I would LOVE an opportunity to talk more in-depth, so I added you on plurk (I'm blakeroo in case it wasn't obvious). I'm also on Discord or can PM if that works better for you.
