idk if you have anyone actually killing the goat but like I said on Plurk I am Here for Clem being all. Frysquints at him in being all sus on what else he is leaving out along with the 'oh yeah we were like romantically together that I recall' thing.

Also eventually actually making that a thing. Maybe after the personal horror and she isn't all sus about him though lol.

[darraig]

I mean. If he wants to learn how to kill someone with nothing but a torch (or uh. flashlight. because language differences there). Clem's there to have that training option?

But also just in general supporting each other after October for Sakura and Glitch too? October was Rough okay. Her boyfriend attacks her and then gets seriously injured, one friend lost an arm and another went on a spree attacking/killing people I mean. Talk about and actually deal with stuff. Glitch......

[darraig]

Buddy system is go? I have a top level for Clem at the event log already regarding the dinos. Or the insight stuff which is similar I guess in some ways to the ring without the now you see me now you don't thing. If you wanted to play with that?

[measuringdicks]

Player Name: Effy
Preferred Contact: robbstark
Time Zone: UTC+8. if I'm awake while everybody else is awake, it's late.
Personal Style: I generally prefer action but can switch to prose easily! backtags are grand.
OOC Limits: n/a!

Character Name: Richie Tozier
Age: 14, occasionally can turn 40 bc of CRAU
Employment in Deerington: I'm sticking him in the movie theater as an usher. he will be taking full advantage of his job to drag his friends there.
Residence in Deerington: 437 Allison Road, which is uh a shitshow atm.
Day to Day Activities: he takes his Mimikyu Venkman for a bike ride, goes to the comic book shop to buy comics, goes to the arcade to play video games, every other week or so gets groceries, drops in on his friends and acquaintances. since Richie is not going to school his routine is kinda whatever he can think of to cram into his day, which is why you might sometimes find him just staying all day at the movie theater.

About This Character: Richie is one of the seven members of the Losers’ Club of 1989, and is also known as Trashmouth. spend more than ten minutes with him and you’ll see why: if a dirty joke occurs to him, chances are he will say it immediately with no apparent thought to its impropriety. he’s somewhat cynical for a teenager, which is understandable when you consider he’s from a Stephen King novel, and likes to make fun of things. he is also fiercely loyal to his friends, having been known to swing a baseball bat at killer clowns should they harm one of them. this iteration of Richie comes with just under a year’s worth of CRAU experience in Mask or Menace, so he also brings superpowers with him: voice mimicry, age shifting (physically shapeshifting from 14 yo to 40 and back again, no he can't do any other ages, it's awful), and a Tasha’s Hideous Laughter rip-off. the last two have been warped to cause him pain if he tries to use them, but at least he can still do voices??
Any Warnings: it's Stephen King welp. here are pertinent warnings!

Present Life: Richie has, uh, not had a great October. he blew up at Eddie out of terror and internalized homophobia after seeing Eddie's memories of kissing a previous Richie, and he regretted it and the radio silence immediately and is trying to make up for it. he has no idea Eddie is currently possessed, but he is definitely more than a little worried about him, believing that Eddie is suffering some kind of weird post-October problems. also, another of his best friends just left the game so he's reeling from that and trying to not look at that, and another of his friends has just come back from the dead and is suffering from death amnesia. he's VERY ADAMANT that he won't be going anywhere near the sinkholes, and is currently just lying low. he won't be getting an event top-level bc I'm Lazy and also he doesn't wanna go near the sinkholes, but I do have plans for him to haul home monster skeletons from The Mist.
Future Ideas: WELL I am planning on having him do the age shifting more again, although it's currently pretty painful for him. he'll be planning to get it stabilized just as soon as everything calms down and people aren't dying and Eddie isn't acting weird, so watch out for a network post asking after tips re: getting powers stabilized, possibly. also, he's going to be experiencing some actual, non-superpower-related growth spurts and dealing with the embarrassment of having his voice crack in a post, probably in December or something. also, having him poke his toe out of the closet a little more.

CR You Want: is your character from a somewhat family-friendly canon? please let me throw Richie at you, it amuses me to have Richie swear at people who legally cannot swear. is your character from a horror canon? please let me throw Richie at you so he can compare and contrast his experiences with Pennywise with the wider world of horror. is your character a teenager who needs a friend? please let this sweary pubescent weirdo into your life, he is both the best and worst friend you can make under the circumstances. also if someone can gently help guide him out of the closet that would be swell. thank u. really I am not picky what kind of CR I get.
CR You Don't Want: no romance, Richie is spoken for!

Additional Comments/Dumb Shit:

[darraig]

yes good I'mma add you on Plurk. Glad you're feeling better though at least!

Clearly if he's being buddies with Lev, he at least needs proper cr with Yuu. His roommate and also darker canon and traumatized child because isn't that every now just thirteen year old here? No? Oops. But they can bond over it taking A While with admitting friendship or such. (It took Yuu four years of living with the other Hyakuya orphans before he admitted they were family......yeah. Kid also has Issues there.)

Or if he really wants to talk Death, Clementine here has seen and caused A Lot of it. That too. Comes with the territory of zombies and all.

[thefaulty]

God, if Arid catches wind that Elias is trying to bring MORE eyeballs to Deerington, she will piledrive him into the fucking pavement LMAO

[thefaulty]

One day I will add Tim to the list of TMA characters Arid has complicated, ugly CR with.... one day....

[eyeknowyou]

Come now, Arid, there's nothing wrong with a little research, is there?

[thefaulty]

Maybe Elias should research more productive subjects? Like the structural integrity of the human skull vs a cement curb :/

Player Name: Berri
Preferred Contact: Plurk @ taiyakinonaku
Time Zone: PST
Personal Style: I am happy to style match and do a lot of backtagging~!
OOC Limits: I'm good with most things. Body horror is case by case.

[eyeknowyou]

Rude, rude, rude, Arid. And he's already done research of Human Skull v. Lead Pipe. Isn't that good enough?

Atsushi Nakajima | Bungo Stray Dogs

[undermoonlight]

Character Name: Atsushi Nakajima
Age: 18
Employment in Deerington: Hart Mart as a cashier. Interested in community college, but needs a kick to actually apply.
Residence in Deerington: Lives with Usagi Tsukino and Makoto Kino in that Really Pink House.
Day to Day Activities: He died in October, so he will spend most of November being sick and useless. Atsushi is a people pleaser and lets other people dictate his daily activities. Sometimes he'll be focused on work around the house, others he will be delivering supplies to people or checking up on friends. If someone has a favor to ask, he'll drop everything to do it.

About This Character: Atsushi is a well meaning person, who is generally conflict avoidant and socially timid. He has a snarky streak, but will put a lid on it to pass in social situations. He's also a bit short tempered at times, prone to holding grudges (he's looking at you, Mother Superior,) and has an unhealthy hero complex. He's someone who can be tossed around and beaten, emotionally and physically, and will always rise up. Even if you take off his leg, stab him like a pin cushion, or destroy what very little self esteem he has left.

His 'Ability' is called Beast Beneath the Moonlight and it allows Atsushi to become part tiger and wreck shit. He can also generate from nearly any wound (he pops his severed leg back on at one point,) and has cat-like senses.
Any Warnings: Child Abuse/Neglect, both physical and psychological, as well as what might be PTSD (audio and visual hallucinations.) The orphanage he grew up in abused him horribly, including warnings like near drowning and electrocution. However, Atsushi and his prose rarely bring these up.

Present Life: Sooo death sucked. But he's really glad that it wasn't permanent. Atsushi is privately angry at himself for letting so many of his friends get hurt/killed and handling that self loathing really well. He's not. He feels like he needs to earn his revived life somehow. Looking for any way to make up for it. Also, trying to learn to bake a birthday cake for Makoto. He's been learning to rely on his friends more, but continues to screw that up too.

He still thinks that he turns into a tiger under the full moon. I've kept this misunderstanding going for five months and I'd like my sixth month card punch, please.

Lastly, Atsushi is in a depressing situation where he has now spent more time in Deerington than his new home of Yokohama. He isn't sure how to feel about some of his CR being closer to him than the people back 'home.' If he can even call Yokohama home anymore.
Future Ideas: I'd like for Atsushi to enroll at the community college! Horror-wise, I'd like to eventually have him open up about the orphanage and begin unpacking the burden of his past. I'd also like for him to lose his leg at some point.

CR You Want: FRIENDSHIP, LET'S GO. Mentors are also a plus. Atsushi benefits from having someone to praise him and give him direction. Also, a lot of his CR is girls. Which is fine, but also. Please. Male friends.
CR You Don't Want: Looks like he's taken for shipping, so yay.

Madoka Kaname | Puella Magi Madoka Magica

[protectshope]

Character Name: Madoka (Kaname) the Law of the Cycle
Age: 14 / Infinite
Employment in Deerington: Middle School (8th grade)
Residence in Deerington: With Homura Akemi!
Day to Day Activities: Madoka goes to and from school during the day, then patrols the town from sunset until late evening. She is happy to lend a hand to anyone in need and tries to establish herself as a helpful magical girl.

About This Character: Madoka here comes from the end of the Anime canon, meaning she was wiped her existence and become god. Kinda. She was once a normal fourteen year old girl, who didn't stand out much beyond the karmic destiny forced upon her (thnx, homura,) and longed to be helpful. Now, Madoka has overhauled the grimdark magical girl system of her home and become an omnipotent being.

In Deerington, Madoka is generally stuck in her 'mortal' form. She chooses optimism when she can, but is no stranger to grief and not about to force anyone to bottle up their feelings! Madoka is considered an embodiment of hope by end series, and it's an accurate comparison: She can see the bad in the world and she understands that horrible things might be reality, but that doesn't mean she won't believe in goodness!
Any Warnings: Nothing major for Madoka personally. Her canon has characters with suicidal ideation, self harm (their bodies don't necessarily feel pain,) and general dark concepts.

Present Life: Madoka joined the Deer party in October and yowzers was that ever a thing. She's quite shaken by everything that happened in October, but doing her best to settle into her new 'normal.' She is enjoying her flesh and blood existence and excited to eat food again! She's also very troubled by how heavily warped her abilities are and looking to change that.
Future Ideas: One day, W I T C H. I'd like to play just a smidge with the horror of Madoka's conceptual existence. One of her power warps causes her to disappear if she uses too much of her magic and I'd like to use that eventually.

Otherwise... She's here to be surprisingly mature for a fourteen year old girl.

CR You Want: More friends! Maybe some other omnipotent/timespace defying types that she can open up to. And of course, friends her age.
CR You Don't Want: n/a

I'd love to have Peter follow up with Dean sometime, re: demon things!

Especially since now that Lucifer's shown up..... Peter's demon king is going to be following him around, seeing him as his "master" even if it's a different version of his Lucifer... and inevitably trying to help do things for him and strengthen him with the goal to help him take over Sam. In his verse, Paimon just happens to be Lucifer's most loyal follower agjfk;f

Why not add to the stress in poor Dean's life with a possessed kid whose demon is trying to help the archangel in Dean's brother :'D

[bowliever]

Hello!

I just realized I lost the notif on our last thread and it got dropped. Really sorry about that (and I'm down to pick it back up if you are interested)! Anyway, I really enjoyed the thread that Lev had with Peter (and Rex MVP) and would love to do more. It was surprisingly gentle. I don't know how Lev would think about Paimon (not sure demon possession is a thing he's ever learned about outside of... zombies) but I think it could be interesting.

[bowliever]

More Richie and Lev please! I find them extremely amusing together.

[possessum]

Super excited to see how the whole “facing Grass Demon” thing is going to go for Fern! Also Paimon stepping up the whole ~kingly duties. We can probably handwave a lot of the quest-going but if there’s ever anything in particular you want to do there, I’m always here for it. Paimon’s just going to be glad to have him back and definitely slathered him in creepy demonic affections when he realised Fern remembered him again…

I'm also definitely here any time for some kind of follow up with Fern and Peter, and I keep thinking how good (and sad) it would be if it leads into them talking about Will and Ben.... :'D I feel like at this point, Peter would directly ask Fern why he doesn’t like him, so maybe it could lead into the whole Will thing? Peter's never really... talked about losing Ben and Will, so it'd be hella bittersweet if he actually did that with Fern.

[owllady]

Yes!! I would love that. I read your CR meme, and am not totally sure how we could interact while Bill is hiding out except if he inadvertently has a presence on the network. Eda has taken to texting random people, which could be fun. But also open to anything!

[owllady]

Yeah!! We should have them meet. Maybe that would give her business a sense of respectability!

[possessum]

Hello! I'm really enjoying Peter talking to Eleven; she's so precious and their thread already gives me so many feels.... As you could probably gather from his gloomy introspection, he comes with a lot of Dead Little Sister aches & pains, and Eleven definitely reminds him of her. Charlie was pretty offbeat and did things like build creepy little dolls out of random parts of things, and...... collect dead birds.....

Peter also happens to be possessed by a traumatised, fucked-up demon king who is kind of infused with his little sister's soul??? He doesn't know that yet, just that it "displays her weird habits" sometimes. I keep having this mental image of his demon just wanting to like, do art with Eleven and make things gjgl;f...... He would find her fascinating and familiar to Charlie??

I really love how Eleven is like, an innocent with this immense power; Paimon's a lot like that too. He doesn't know how to control himself / his powers right now, and I love the thought of him interacting with kids because he'd have a lot more chill around them?? He has a very hard time communicating, so finding other ways to do that (through art, the very "simplistic" / literal way Eleven sees things, etc.) would be.... creepily cute...

Definitely looking forward to Peter reaching out to Ruby for some help when Luna starts going downhill! And him and Ruby stressing about Luna and Varian being at odds in general. Ruby trying to help everyone get along while Peter is just shaking because confrontation makes him very nervous.....

Also all the stuff with Paimon! I'm running hella slow on backtags, but I'm still really enjoying their own thread and him getting to learn a bit more about her. At some point in the future, they should team up against some monster or something here, combine her strength and his intellect (when he's not in Feral Mode), and kick something's butt!

[clickclickbloom]

Yes to both of these!

I'm incredibly looking forward to some teen drama with all of that. Ruby's going to be so confused and stressed about two of her besties fighting like this. She is going to do her best to get to the bottom of it and figure things out but she's pretty bad when it comes to infighting among friends and I can't wait to see her and Peter just flounder over this.

Don't worry about it. I'm slow with backtags at the moment too. But I've been really intrigued with how Ruby and Paimon have interacted and I'm thrilled to get some more of that. Depending on how your load is they could try and do the team up this month or we can wait and see if december brings us something a little more substantial for them to go against.

Either way I love Peter and I love Paimon so please give me more of them.

stefan salvatore

[prescind]

Character Name: stefan salvatore
Age: 170+
Employment in Deerington: god, he doesn't have a job still
Residence in Deerington: 28 main street
Day to Day Activities: stefan's usually hanging out around his house during the day, doing some work on the various cars in the driveway or improving his house. he also heads into town to drink (he has an affinity for nice liquor) and to get blood from the hospital, though he's low key about that.

About This Character: stefan's an old ass vampire with a hero complex to match his hero hair. he keeps the vampire part of himself low key though he hasn't been careful during events. he's a nice guy unless he drinks too much blood and then he's off the rails and turns into the ripper.
Any Warnings: stefan's past contains some disturbing themes just as: torture, dubious consent, blood, mental manipulation, and murder.

Present Life: right now, stefan's comfortably in a relationship with katherine. they had a rough october so they're just going to be quiet in november, doing their own thing. stefan will probably finally get a job so he can support himself. he's going to try and be very off the grid when it comes to getting blood because he was kind of a prick last month when all that blood was everywhere.
Future Ideas: he's going to be facing his blood addiction once again and hopefully finding a way to control it once and for all.

CR You Want: friends! people who know he's a vampire! but mostly people who can be friendly with a broody guy like him.
CR You Don't Want: romance because he's taken but everything else is fine.

[obitus]

GOSH YES I would really love to do more with them!! (And I added you on Plurk!) For some reason I want them to meet somewhere painfully normal like the grocery store and be weird cryptids at each other but in full fluorescent lighting. I could get a starter up in my catchall post by tomorrow sometime if that sounds at all appealing, or I'm also open to literally anything if you've got other ideas!
