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!

Dandy

[affluenza]

Name: Dandy Mott
Faction: Islington Nest

CR Possibilities (shared or new):

• Fellow sadist/murderous types.


• Fellow enthusiasts of film and theater. And showtunes.


• ENEMY-WISE, werewolves, hunters, and anyone who hates spoiled brats.


• Anyone he's fed off of in the past.


• Anything really, if you can think of something else! His full app is here.

Faction Claims: Dandy himself isn't pursuing any factions right now because he's too busy bidding on old film reels on eBay and stuff like that. He'd be defensive of Bexley because that's where his mansion is and he doesn't want to move all his stuff.

I'd love some vampire vs werewolf action between Dandy and Eren. Maybe it could be a "we've known each other for a while, but can't seem to kill the other" type of thing. Or new CR works too! I've never seen American Horror Story, but Dandy's character seems like a ton of fun, so I'd be up for whatever.

[affluenza]

Awesome, yeah they can have known each other for a while. Dandy hates werewolves but he'd be careful about getting into actual physical fights with them so they can just have some anger and not-followed-up-on threats...

[stauncherhearted]

Fed off of her, mayhaps?

[affluenza]

Sure! Sorry for the late reply, got a bit sidetracked haha.

[stauncherhearted]

No worries! It happens.

'cause, yeah. she makes house calls.

[kleptofaeniac]

You want some Daylight amulets, bruh? She's also a serious popculture nerd.

[affluenza]

HE WANTS SOME BUT HE'S NOT TECHNICALLY ALLOWED TO HAVE THEM although he'll take them if she doesn't tattle...and yes popculture talk is always good!

[kleptofaeniac]

Hey she's got discretion for her clients!

Especially the ones who could murder her.

Stiles will probably strongly dislike Dandy just in terms of personality clashes, BUT it's not really like he poses a threat to Dandy...or can do anything about Dandy's MURDEROUS INCLINATIONS... I don't know how'd it go, but I've love some kind of weird negative CR that hovers on neutral maybe positive if only because Stiles is in a position where he has no other choice but to tolerate Dandy. WEAKLING HUMAN HERE.

What do you think? :|a

[affluenza]

Sure! Dandy would be grumpy that Stiles is pals with werewolves but he's not an actual werewolf so not quiiiiite as bad.
