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!

Kenzi

[personal profile] kleptofaeniac 2015-05-16 10:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Name: Kenzi Malikov
Faction: Witch, Circle Midnight
Info: Application and Permissions

CR Ideas:

- Fellow black market people Kenzi can associate with or compete with!

- Bodyguards (I have Derek Hale as an option from Eilidh on the pre-game CR meme, and I'd like to keep that)

- ex-associates, bodyguards, boyfriends. Basically people that used to work with Kenzi and have stopped for their own reasons

- Lawful good types trying to catch her. I'd love to have law enforcement tracking her down, trying to find her and coming close a la Javert. Give me your obsessives

- Fellow witches in Circle Midnight and every other species around, Kenzi is not picky about what her friends are!

- Flirting options (exclusively male unfortunately) and potential love interests?

- Anyone who wants to help her improve her magic?

- Clients!

- Any neg or pos CR.

Faction Stuff: So Kenzi herself isn't particularly motivated in politics and gaining ground, but if you are her friend and YOU are - she'll help you out no matter what. She spends a lot of time in Hounslow.

You're keeping it you're not getting a choice. He's kenzi's now, like fungus.

anyway yes please I very much want to keep him as her jack of all trades, whether it's bodyguarding or carrying her gear around like a loser. He's far more invested in it than he'll actually seem, naturally. Also, she may get the occasional flirt from him just to keep her on her toes.

ALSO I was wondering - what are the chances of homegirl hooking Derek up with a piece of moonlight jewellery? He'd be way more likely to start off looking for it from her!

I was actually going to offer just that on your top comment lol. She can totally hook him up with some moonlight jewelry!

And yes I can't wait for them to work together! She needs a good loomer to make herself look more serious - no one likes to be intimidated by the 98 lb girl in stilettos!

Kenzi also may or may not get invested in finding his sister's killer (read: actually will get invested)

Kenzi you're the only witch for him.

LMFAO I love the idea of these two losers like, using each other for what they need but it gets to a stage where it's like "...dammit" and there's nothing they can do about it.
