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!

Re: Kenzi | Circle Midnight | Witch

well a) nancy has a book now about summoning fae. so. feel free to steal it.
b) Nancy is still anti summoning fae. SO AGAINST IT YOU IDIOT OH MY GOD KENZI.
c) so obviously she needs to get hurt during the possession.

She will also help with treasurehunts and everything. But sorry she still won't introduce Kenzi to Fagin but if she wanted to add him as a npc partner thing feel free. Nancy will also just be really furious and warn her about it, but I hope she'd have the good sense NOT to deal with this actually terrible man.

I love that we know each other's canons so we dont' even have to explain

We are unstobbable mwhahahaha

IM SORRY NANCY KENZI IS A HORRIBLE FRIEND.

also yes yes yes yes yes yes getting hurt during the possession gimmie dat angst. I have the idea that every night she'll get possessed by something new and on the last night (since Lynn and I both know the canon Abigail is based on very well) having THIS THING get in her on the last night and it'll really try to do some damage to Kenzi and errbody except Abigail. It'll also try to gtfo the house which is BAD.

You are totally allowed to yell at her after this Nancy

she'll yell but she'll love her anyway because that's what Nancy does, and she's never gonna give Kenzi up, even if she lets her down.
THAT THING is terrifying I don't like it. So yeah, whenever you want Nancy to get hurt. Do the thing.

So yeah. She'll just forgive kenzi. WAIT why is that thing not even gonna go after Abigaiiiillll. also I already know why Nancy is actually at the hous einstead of her place: to make sure kenzi is safe. yes. good. such pain.

bruh when i was watching crooked house like... once a week (because apparently i hate myself) i would always start like crying when that THING came on screen. UGH ITS SO CREEPY I GET THE JITTERS JUST THINKING ABOUT IT /whines

And the thing won't attack her because it's like.... the offspring of all the fucked up magic her ancestors did to make sure the family line wouldn't die out? IDK HOW TO EVEN EXPLAIN IT BUT BASICALLY when people were stupid about family lines needing to be continued by male heirs, this particular Widdowson wasn't having any children so he (in canon) decided to get in contact with a witch (who in the AU is the Fae who raised Abigail) who made this weird gross creature instead of a healthy baby boy.

AND THEN THEY TIME TRAVEL AND STEAL A BABY FROM THE FUTURE?? AND THEN THE WIDDOWSONS ARE OKAY??? ITS REALLY WEIRD butiloveit

>D

And all of this is canon. It's been worked into the AU. BUT THE MINI SERIES ACTUALLY DOES THAT.
