CR Planning: May 2015

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!

Nancy

[personal profile] stauncherhearted 2015-05-16 12:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Nancy Fagin
Faction: Witch, Circle Midnight
Info: Application and Permissions

CR Ideas:
-Nancy grew up here in London, so it's likely she'd have met some characters. She was raised by your typical creepy, Fae, black-market fence, so if you wanted to get some sort of unsavory object, he was the person to go to, so that's another possibility for a run-in. Or if you had a bad experience with Fagin, that could propel some CR.

-People that would have fed off of her. She's a blood worker, so she's a meal for hire. Likewise, she is a prostitute, if your character is the type to hire one, be my guest.

-Both negative and positive cr is a++

-Mark? Has she stolen something from you? You probably didn't catch her. But.

-Nancy spends most of her time hanging at supernatural bars.

-Anyone wanna help her actually harness her powers? Or help facilitate an eventual faction change?

-I'm really up for anything and everything, tbh.

Faction Stuff: WELL Circle Midnight doesn't actually have any territories. Whoops. She's not really involved in the politics. She lives in Bexley, and spends a lot of time in Lewisham, however.

Abigail would definitely be willing to help Nancy harness her powers, since Abigail's been brought up using hers.

That'd be absolutely perfect tbh! She's had a few times where she's been practicing and has wound up completely passing out.

If Nancy ever tried to pickpocket Clint, he would definitely notice, and then he would give her some kind of dad speech and buy her some groceries tbh.
