abovegrounds | 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!

Welcome, welcome.

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

thedarkfields, if you ever want to do plotting. c:

I'd be here for that, absolutely. I think there's plenty of room for interesting CR there.

Hello Saro! I'm Megan and I play Sirius Black here as a shapeshifter. I look forward to playing with you.

Hello! I'm Jack and I play Lancelot, local good guy cop and also Guardian for the Night Council!

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:

Likewise! I'm happy to be here and meeting everyone.

I am sure she will. I can see ways she'd run across either of them.

Absolutely looking forward to running into either or both of them.

Honestly LBR

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, it's true.

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.

Wonderful. I look forward to it!

Hello and welcome!!

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

lycanthropy101 if you would care to friend and/or do plotting with me, and in the meanwhile welcome aboard!! c:

Yesss, we will make this happen.

I will add you then. I'm sure between the three of those guys, we can find some fun CR. I'm not even sure what sounds best, because I can see all of them having potential.

We can throw some ideas/tags around and see what sticks.

Faolan here is my favorite so he gets the mot attention, but they all do have potential yes! He's about to find himself in a lot of trouble with the vampires actually, since he just pushed Hillingdon to stand with the fae against the vampires for a territory dispute...

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 am definitely down for Faolan if he's your main. That could be very interesting, especially depending on how things shake out between Natasha and local vampires. Spoilers: she doesn't expect well, but who knows. In that respect, Jean-Claude could also be interesting. There's just a lot of potential overall!

Hey, Saro! I'm Shea, you've been playing with my Laura on the test drive. in game, I actually play Nancy from Oliver Twist as a midnight witch (who will feed Natasha for a few pounds if need-be) and Annie Cresta from the Hunger Games as a Hillingdon hunter.

I look forward to getting to play with you!

Hi! I've really enjoyed that thread, so I'm glad you commented. I look forward to trying out some other CR with you in the future!

Me too! thanks for replying!

I do as well.

Hi there! I'm so excited to see Natasha in the game and vampire is so ace for her. Bravo, bravo.

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.

Funny story. A long time ago, round about season 2, I used to play Bo on the internet and the saddest part of that is that I never had a Kenzi to play off of. So while CR with either of them would be fabulous, I'd seriously love to play off Kenzi.

It makes me happy to see her face.

Hi and welcome to the game!

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.

I would be absolutely up to some Russian spy interactions. One of my favorite things about playing Nat, for real.

And Natasha is, at least, trying very hard to not be the Worst. So she has that going for her?

Awesome! Russian spies gotta stick together.

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.

Yesssss, I like it. I'm very much looking forward to everyone hating vampires, actually.

Or, you know, not everyone.

Just most people.

Oh man of course we meet now! I've never actually been able to play against a Bo myself.

At least we can have CR now /sob

#smallfandomprobems

This will be good though. Definitely excited for this CR.

YAY MORE VAMPIRES. YAY NATASHA. YAY IN GENERAL.

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!

THANK YOU.

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.

Regimes fall every day. I tend not to weep over that. I'm Russian, or I was.
