CR Planning: June 2015

CR Planning: June 2015

Welcome to the Underground! Newbies, we're very excited to have you! This post is both a CR meme and a general update about what's happening in the game, so please do read and feel free to ask any questions.

You can use this post to:

• Discuss your character's background history with other players and make changes where needed.
• Work out shared history with canonmates and build in cross-canon CR.
• Say what kind of CR you're looking for and reply to others to offer CR.
• Say hi to the members of your faction and discuss your in-game strategy.
• Think about what territories you might want to make a claim on.

Newbies, are you wondering how to get started? The plotting post for June is still live, and there's room to jump in! Here are some plots in the works that are open to join:

Vampire & hunter shenanigans
The Bloody Countess (20th June, Heiji Hattori)

Fae shenanigans
Litha Feast: aka kidnapped by the Seelie (21st June, Heiji Hattori)
Missing teens: aka who got kidnapped by the Seelie (in-progress, Pel Lavellan)

Witchy shenanigans
Forming a Circle Midnight coven (25th June, Abigail Widdowson)
Throwing a Midnight party at Geap Manor (1st July, Abigail Widdowson)

There will also be some new game information to be added this month: the Elites, a list of the most influential characters in each faction. These will be exclusively made up of level 4 or 5 ranking characters, and therefore to start off this page will be populated by NPCs. The twist? They'll be made up by you, so that you can put a name and a face to your faction leaders. Look out for an OOC post on that soon.

In the meantime, happy planning!

Balem / Unseelie Fae

[personal profile] entitles 2015-06-12 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Balem is a douchebag Unseelie fae lord who loves space and is pretty okay with other fae and pretty snobby towards anyone else. He's also really damn old (50,000) and has been in London for around 200 years, and before that places like Italy, France, Ancient Greece, and Ancient Egypt, if your character would have been in any of those places. He's arrogant as hell and enjoys art and manipulating others.

PLANS:
-Nothing set in stone for the rest of June, so feel free to suggest something!
-In July he's planning on getting the Unseelie on the map, probably going for Bexley because it's neutral and right next to Greenwich where his beloved Royal Observatory is.
-He's really angry about all the Night Council business, mostly because Circle Daybreak tries to keep fae out of their territory and he hates being told what to do, so he's going to be doing things (including any territory claims) just to stick it to them, pretty much.


DESIRED CR:
-Fae!
-Alliances with werewolves, circle midnight witches, and anyone else that feels scorned by the Night Council.
-Anyone who is also interested in space and star-related magic, he may grumpily mentor you.
-Baically anything, pre-existing or new, negative or positive, really.

Sup Balem let's hang out and talk about fae junk.

Actually, if you were interested in a log with the other fae planning strategy and whatever for Bexley/Bromley, that might be cool. Presumably after they've gotten the OK from the Elites to put their plan into action, jaw about the other factions etc etc.
