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!

Aww, that looks adorable. I snooped around the locations page and saw cafe's description, too. It seems like such a fun place to work!

But pffffft. Flirting with customers? Heiji might have to teach Eren some techniques.

Yes, let's do it, it clearly won't be a disaster at all and Eren will be a suave Don Juan!

does Eren like practical jokes

You have a good one planned? Eren would probably act annoyed at first, but then he'd start to get into the idea of coming up with a retaliation prank.

Possibly! But Heiji wouldn't try it if it would really bother Eren, because while he's mischievous, he's not generally an asshole.

Also retaliation pranks would be cute

Hehe, then perhaps we can save it for after they've bonded a bit. Once they're buddies, it'd be all good. Though there would still be cute retaliation pranks.
detectiveofthewest: (Heiji: there there)
