CR Planning: July 2015

CR Planning: July 2015

Welcome to the Underground! Newbies, we're very excited to have you! As mentioned in the calendar, there will be a welcome log posted on the 19th for newbies and current players alike to mingle. However, don't feel that you can't post until then, feel free to jump in right away! In the meantime, this post is a free-for-all for everyone to make new CR and figure out how to get involved with the game.

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.

The plotting post for July is still live with a couple of prompts left to claim, so please do feel free to use it!

I also want to add a quick reminder about the HMD meme that went up a couple of days ago, and in particular my request for feedback on the game. I've had a lot of great feedback already and am very happy to hear more suggestions, whether you've just joined or you've been around since the beginning. I will be starting to make the changes discussed from this weekend onwards, and more input is always welcome.

In the meantime, happy planning!

Ekko | League of Legends | Meta-human

[personal profile] chronobreak 2015-07-18 02:01 am (UTC)(link)
Ekko is a meta-human Prefect at the Redbright Institute. His power is limited to rewinding time for four minutes, for now. His father is an outcast fae, and his mother is a normal human- they're both incredibly busy so they don't keep the greatest tabs on him. That said he still loves them, but his loyalties currently lie with Redbright.

He also grew up mostly on the streets running around with a gang. He probably would have been caught doing small time crime like shoplifting, but has rewound his way out of that.

Plans:
  • Have him find a job.
  • Visit the alleys and slums of London to check in on his old gang and pay his respects to the deceased.
  • Possibly claim some territory for Redbright- Enfield
  • If he gets enough points, upping his ability to rewinding six whole minutes. Alternatively, the more useful ability to take somebody along with him.

Desired CR:
  • Friends, allies, enemies.
  • Fellow students, teachers, people at the Redbright Institute.
  • Anything would be good since he's just starting out.

I've been having fun in our thread so far! I don't know if our characters will end up friends or enemies, but I think it would be really interesting to one day find out about Ekko's dad and speaking of which did you know we have an outcast fae in-game his name is Willard

Definitely! Though Ekko has no idea about his dad, because haha teenagers and talking to their parents. I actually did not!

Just popping in to say -- the map hasn't updated yet, but Enfield has been claimed by Circle Midnight to stand against Redbright.

Which is not to discourage you from having Ekko try to claim it! Just letting you know so you know OOCly that there will be IC resistance.

Oh! Okay, he'll probably wait a bit longer before trying something then.

While I have you here, how do you feel about Ekko going in to spy on Circle Midnight?

I'd love it!

We'll have to work out with the other Midnighters and such how much he'll find out, how he'll get in and such, but I'm totally down for it.

He's pretty willing to poke around everywhere. Let me know what everybody else decides!

Also I'm totally down for him getting caught at some point down the line and getting some injuries.

I just joined too and I just posted a thing for Snake. He kind of needs to be persuaded about Redbright because he grew up isolated from ALL supernaturals and pretty much hid his nature. But as he's an adult now, he's curious about meeting different people.

Ekko has no idea his dad is a fae. But he's also ambitious, so he enrolled himself. He can definitely be a pursuader.
