Regimes fall every day. I tend not to weep over that. I'm Russian, or I was.
Hi, all!
In case anyone was wondering who that weirdo was getting all up in your test drive, I am Saro. I'm happy to be here realizing my dream of playing Natasha Romanoff as a vampire.
For game purposes, Natasha is a vampire turned during the Cold War who's recently experienced a crisis of conscience which led her to a rather dramatic falling out with her home nest in Moscow and fleeing Eastern Europe entirely to start fresh and attempt to go straight in London. She's only been in town a few weeks and keeping a low profile, but she's just been accepted into the Redbright Institute's Outreach Group and she's starting to branch out more. For the time being, she's trying to live on animal blood, but who knows how long that will last.
I'm open to all sorts of CR, negative and positive.
I am
sarosaron on plurk, and anyone is free to add me. That's my preferred method of OOC communication, but if that doesn't work, my gmail address is also available on my app, here
Thanks for having me!

Kyle here is a former soldier who used to kill vampires (and still mostly hates them), so it would be pretty cool for him to meet a vampire that's not busy nomming on humans with a carefree lifestyle?
I'm Ange, plurk is over at

Equally I play Gilbert Norrell, local witch tyrant and member of the Night Council trying to ban everything he doesn't like.
I'm quite sure Natasha is bound to run into one of them eventually! c:
no subject
Absolutely looking forward to running into either or both of them.

without Cap in her life she needs at least one overly strong, reckless do-gooder with no sense of self preservation in her life so actually Lance fits right in
no subject
And she needs a good cop to her bad cop.
Because even Natasha trying to go straight.
Might be the kind of person who'd dangle a bad guy in front of an oncoming train to scare some answers out of him.
So yes, I absolutely want that.

I'm Teresa and I've got an interesting menagerie of characters here right now. First up is Faolan here (from the Bridei Chronicles by Juliet Marillier), who's grumpy and grumbly with a secret soft nougaty center, who happens to be Head of Hillingdon and also secretly a Night Council Guardian as well c:
Then I've got Childermass from Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, who's Norrell's under-appreciated right hand man, both a witch in Daybreak and an admin in the Night Council. Norrell may be the one who calls the shots but Childermass is the one behind the scenes who does most of the work for him.
AND LASTLY I play a trashy vampire named Jean-Claude from Laurell K Hamilton's Anita Blake series (terrible I know). He's 600+ years old, flirty and French and he owns an all-male strip club named Guilty pleasures.
ANYWAY that's my repertoire, my plurk is
no subject
We can throw some ideas/tags around and see what sticks.
no subject
Jean-Claude is another one with potential because he's a fellow vampire and the Earl of Poplar. Though of course Childermass is super involved in Night Council business because of Norrell -- tl;dr, wherever you'd like to go with her, I'd be happy to toss one of my guys at her at least c:

I do as well.

I'm Kim and I'm playing Kenzi right here who is a recently turned vampire and also James Memon who is the defacto leader of the East End Pack until someone better takes his place lol.
I really would love CR with both of my babes and Nat. I think Kenzi could use another vampire influence that isn't a tiny maladjusted murder child and Jean-Claude. That is, of course, if you're interested lol.
no subject
It makes me happy to see her face.
no subject
At least we can have CR now /sob
no subject
This will be good though. Definitely excited for this CR.

I'm Em, and I play another Russian expat, grumpy little werewolf Alex here (even though she'll swear up and down she's totally American and has never been to Russia in her life). I'd love for her to meet Nat at some point for potentially bonding over their shared Russianness or just so Alex can meet a vampire who isn't The Worst.
no subject
And Natasha is, at least, trying very hard to not be the Worst. So she has that going for her?
no subject
tbh Alex really doubts that any vampire would even try to not be the Worst but hopefully meeting Nat will show her the error of her ways.
no subject
Or, you know, not everyone.
Just most people.

I've just tagged Natasha with Joss, who is really upset about still being twelve after 650 years and is a 100% terrible person. I think he and Natasha will actually get along pretty well! He may hate everyone, but he respects power and competence and there's nobody more competent than Black Widow. I'm totally looking forward to their interactions!
I also play Simon, who is anything but competent. Poor kid.
Welcome!
no subject
I was super happy to see your tag! Nat is not going to be thrilled running into other vampires, especially older vampires, but I would love to get her CR with some of them.
Hopefully I'll do her competence justice.
