we're doing the thing


Welcome to [community profile] maskormenace's sixth
CR MEME!!


How does this work? It's easy!
    Make a thread for yourself or a comment with your character's name on it. Reply to that post with your filled out forms for organization's sake.
    Comment to other people! See if their answers fit anything you're looking for and if yours fit anything they are. Don't be intimidated, carpe diem, we like to party.
    Keep checking back! We strongly encourage you to track top-levels even, if possible. New characters may get accepted and post to this meme after today and we want to make sure everyone gets their fair shot.
    Play nice and have fun!
    ( THE BASICS )
    Name: Your character!
    Canon: Self-explanatory!!
    Character's (approximate) age: Or how old they appear.
    Character's powers: List and describe them!
    Is your character registered/will they be?: Why or why not! Maybe unsettled heroes will want to make connections with each other. Maybe registered heroes will want to team up. So on!
    Where does your character live?: What housing residence are they in? Meet your roommates if you haven't already, make plans!
    Are you looking for roommates?: If your character is currently housing alone, or planning to move out of their assigned housing. Is your character considering moving to one of our other cities? See who else might be doing the same!
    What is your character's job?: And are they sticking with it? Enjoying it? Coordinate with potential coworkers, employers, or patrons -- why not!

    ( THE DETAILS )
    RUNDOWN -- what are your character's skills, likes/dislikes, urgent needs?: What are they good at, what do they hate, what do they need (and so on) so that others know what they can offer you.
    What are your character's plans?: Either what they're doing as we speak or what you'd like to do with them!
    Does your character have a secret identity?: Since this can get confusing at times. Is your character a superhero with a public identity or do just a few people know who they are? List them, even!
    Is your character open for pairings?: Useful to know! Possibly.
    Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: If yes, how much and in what circumstances?
    Is your character interested in teams?: Registered hero teams are very well-received around these parts, as you might guess. If yes, coordinate with possible teammates and see if you can put something together!
    What kind of plots are you after?: Let the brainstorming commence. This can be as vague, specific, or "big picture" as you'd like.
    Anything else?: If you have anything else to add!

I would really like to have Asami and Death, or Asami and Jotaro, do stuff together. I think it'd be hella fun. Jotaro's dated albeit slightly less (1989) so he's figuring stuff out too.

Asami and Death could be interesting, depending! I am one of those rare people who's never read Sandman, but how much does Death have to do with ... Death? Does it come up with her?

It does! my permissions post (http://ahappyending.dreamwidth.org/685.html) and app (http://ahappyending.dreamwidth.org/275.html) explain it better, but the short of it is: Death is the literal personification of Death, one of seven embodiments of primal forces of the universe (her family, the Endless: Destiny, Death, Dream, Destruction, Desire, Despair and Delirium/Delight).

In practice, she's sort of like the grim reaper. When someone or something dies, she's there to guide them to whatever comes next. (She also, notably, is in charge of giving life as well when everyone/everything first enters the world, and takes them with her when they leave).

it's also implied that Death is the death for ALL universes, and that various death gods/spirits/avatars throughout creation are just different facets of her. Of course, some people don't want that, hence the permissions post!

There might be something to do there, especially in terms of Asami losing her father at a future point. While she's largely come to terms with her mother's death (it was a very long time ago), her father is something that will be very fresh when I update her.

Developing CR in anticipation of Asami having to cope with that in the future could be pretty cool, especially given Death's unique view on that.

Definitely! Death is... well, she's a lot kinder and more compassionate than most incarnations, largely because she realized it made her job a lot easier a couple of billion years ago. She'll gladly talk about death with Asami and help her cope.

I'm excited about this! I'm hoping to have an Asami post up within the next week, so!
