CR Planning: May 2015

Welcome to the Underground! As promised, this is a follow-up post for players who have been accepted into the game to discuss your characters' AU backgrounds with canonmates and other characters, and to establish pre-existing CR (character relations). Feel free to revise your character's history as appropriate to fit in with other characters in 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 begin discussing your in-game strategy.
• Start thinking about what territories you might want to make a claim on.

There will be a plotting post on the 18th where you can stake your territory claims for the opening month of the game, choose a prompt from a list of plots and start planning the events listed in the calendar.

Read the factions page to remind yourself who your allies and enemies are, then take a sneaky look at the territories map as it currently stands and have a think about your faction's goals. Do you want to make an aggressive grab for power? Sit tight and defend the territories you've already got? Play nice and build alliances with other factions? There's no right or wrong way to play: the tactics employed by your faction are completely up to you.

As before, this is a player-led discussion, but I'm happy to answer any questions. Happy planning, and I look forward to playing with everyone when the game opens!

YES HAHAHA oh man please. Stiles can have the victory crown of being the first person to annoy him straight into Emotions, it's great.

And yessss yes to all of this. Libraries will be A+ since he'll just snipe all of Stiles' research every time he's wrong because Stop Being Wrong and IT'S OKAY THEY'RE MONSTERS NOT PEOPLE NO PROBLEMS HERE

also since i'm a post creeper, he can probably learn supernatural self-defense skills off of him once we get to the positive-negative CR mobius loop, cause hey. Yu know he's a hunter. Hunters are good at that. PROFIT

HE WILL NEVER RELINQUISH THIS CROWN, IT IS HIS.

omg Will WHY MUST YOU BE SO ANNOYING AND YET COOL?? GOD.

YES PLEASE, though Stiles might be super wary of the idea of learning from a hunter. I mean, he's totally all for killing the bad guys, but as a whole he's part of a pack AND HE'S GOTTA WATCH HIS BROS' BACKS. But yes, pls teach him your ways, Will-sensei.

i hope it's a burger king crown

AND THAT'S WHAT HE DOES I feel proud because if he's equal measures annoying and cool that's means I'm doing it right yessssss

And hunters at least know what they're doing? POSITIVES. And it'll be double great 'cause eventually Stiles can pester him into being less of a racist against Everything. Everybody wins!

[mensrea]

it is absolutely a burger king crown, you need to sign it, Will

THEN YOU ARE SUPER SUCCESSFUL. HAVE NO FEAR B)

YES EXACTLY. One day Stiles will bring him home to the pack like a not-boyfriend and introduce him like "hi guys this is my pal Will, he kills people like you, but we're working on that, there's been progress."

[alethiological]

it's a burger king crown not a cast he's not signing it

oh god that'd be a great train wreck. "sup and i think i killed your brother last month his body's in the river now sry?"
Stiles get better not-boyfriends
