+1 Arthurian Lady for Redbright
Hi! I’m new around here and bringing you an AU version of Guinevere, who most will know from Arthurian legend. This particular version is based on the TV series Camelot, in which she was married to someone other than Arthur.
Character Summary: The daughter of a Welsh alpha, Gwen is a curse carrier and also a meta human (thanks to some fae funny business). She can be found working at the Redbright Institute as a Home Liaison Officer or volunteering at Conserve, a charity shop run by The Conserve Foundation, whose goal is to provide aid (e.g. employment assistance) to lone werewolves and shapeshifters.
My name is Thren, and I’m super thrilled to be here! If you want to contact me for plotting stuff, you can PM this account or catch me on plurk at
jukejoint. (You’re free to add me but don’t feel obligated.)
Plurk Note: It’s been a few years since I last had a plurk, and I was never a consistent user in the past. Once I remember what the hell I’m doing, I’ll be there for plotting and whatnot but probably won’t use it for anything more than basic RP stuff.

I've got three lovely ladies in this game, Annie from the Hunger Games, who works as a hunter with Hillingdon, Nancy from Oliver Twist, who is a witch currently allied with Islington, and Evie from Assassin's Creed, who is an Islington vamp. I'm very much looking forward to playing with you!

Now to get started. There are so many possibilities that look good right now!
Would it be okay to have Gwen bump into Lance on the steps in front of the Night Council building (while Elaine lurks in the shadows)? I think you meant for his post to be open for something like that, but I wanted to be sure.

While I was trying to get my application sorted, I spent a lot of time reading the board and really enjoyed following your ladies. They're quite the eclectic group. I think perhaps Gwen and Annie might get along the best out of the bunch.

Hell yeah! Annie needs more friends, anyway. Mostly she just hangs out with all these greasy guys and Finnick.

And I just remembered a question I had about Nancy. It's not super important or anything, but...
How old is she? While checking out her character info, I noticed that her birth date was 11/21/97, which would make her 18 turning 19 later this year. Yet, I've definitely seen her described in the game as already being 19.

She'll be turning 20 in November.

Gwen's mom had a soft spot for shifters, and she's the same. I'm sure she'll be happy to meet Sirius (especially once he's cleared of those trumped up murder charges)!

I'm Teresa and I'm playing three unique characters here right now! First is Jean-Claude, he's a flirty French vampire from the Anita Blake Vampire Hunter novels! Then there is Thomas Nightingale, he is on Redbright's Outreach Team, he's from the Rivers of London novels by Ben Aaronovitch. And then lastly I've got Faolan, who's a surly hunter with a lot of secret feelings who happens to be Head of Hillingdon, from Juliet Marillier's Bridei Chronicles series.
I look forward to getting to play and plot with you! C: I'm

I've never read the Rivers of London novels, but they've been on my to-do list for a while. For even longer, I've had the first 6 (I think) Anita Blake novels sitting on my shelf, waiting to be read. (As you can probably tell, I have a HUGE backlog of reading material.)
I'm sure Gwen and Thomas will bump into eachother at Redbright. If he's knows anything about crafting witch's amulets, she'll definitely want to speak with him about that. I think Jean-Claude might be too much of a flirt for her, but that will make meeting him all the more fun.
As for Faolan... I've been reading through the game and enjoying his development. I look forward to seeing where all of those secret (and not so secret) feelings of take him. ;)
Off to friend you now!

My name's Vicki, btw ... not sure if I ever mentioned it before. I have a new character coming in, Liadan from The Sevenwaters Trilogy by Juliet Marillier, who is also a meta human, we'll have to have her and Gwen meet sometime.
no subject
I saw your new character. She's got quite the backstory. They definitely need to meet, which shouldn't be too hard to arrange now that Redbright and Hillingdon are a bit closer.
