I throw my hands up in the air sometimes


Welcome to [community profile] maskormenace's first ever
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!

ruka!!

[personal profile] dragony 2014-02-14 08:50 pm (UTC)(link)
( THE BASICS )
Name: Ruka
Canon: Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's
Age: 16! 17 in four months, what the hell.
Powers: Psychometry/Haptic Empathy! Psychic Shields/Bubbles! Seeing spirits, ghosts, and other invisible shit! Comprehension and ability to communicate in "monster"/non-human languages! Glowing in the dark when she wants to! Fucking over proximity-empaths by being a pressure-cooker of bad vibes! Getting the majority of her powers from a dragon that is also a star that is also a god?? Anime!
Registered?: Not presently, but still considering it! In all honesty she is just looking for the easiest ride through life.
Residence?: #10
Roommates?: Full house! only lacking Bob Sagat. Presently she's not looking to move out.
Job?: Salon Assistant, over-qualified high school student.

( THE DETAILS )
RUNDOWN:
♦ Ruka is good at: reading people, getting along with persons of questionable anything, pretending she's too jaded for all this, and being a fount of advice. As for skill-skills, she's an artist, talented at games of mental skill, on again off again student of archery, one of the longest-term imPorts in game and thus basically a deadpan historian, and the psychometry makes her a blast at parties.
♦ Likes: fine foods and goods, quiet and calm environs, drawing, getting into disgusting cutesy reblog chains with her boyfriend on fake-tumblr (is it still Rumblr in this universe? I hope so.), being right, having people listen to her and take her advice, alcohol, unicorns, and cute clothing.
♦ Dislikes: being poor, being talked down to, ~depending on others~, being slingshot into other dimensions, cheap/low quality foods and goods, animal cruelty, people using the term "monsters" as a pejorative, being calling her out on her bullshit and bad decisions, the undead.
Plans?: Not dying, not having those two morons she cares about die. get $$$
Secret Identity?: nope
Pairings?: Not remotely open! She's been dating the same Worst Possible Option for two years now. Your character can get a crush on her (canon establishes that she is Very Attractive, thanks) but that might result in death threats.
Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: Former, ALWAYS. I'd prefer a lack of murder, and she does have shielding powers to work around (conveniently disabled in one easy step, ask 4 deets), but otherwise sure why the fuck not. Latter, she would only go out to hurt people if they hurt someone she cared about and she was literally standing right there at the time.
Interest in Teams?: Only if there's a really good incentive (money) (money is a really good incentive)

What kind of plots are you after?: right now I'm mostly working on general cr building! new characters especially she'll be interested in, though she'll be a little cagey in general wrt her personal motives and character.
Anything else?: I'm pretty slow because work+university (I literally only have federal holidays off right now), so I am not going to be boomeranging anything, sorry! but if you're okay with that, hit me up!

these two need to bitch about not having money and shitty service jobs.
dragony: (❥n - 07)

[personal profile] dragony 2014-02-14 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
oh my god yes

possibly at one of their shitty service jobs

[personal profile] iampretty 2014-02-14 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Hans accidentally wanders into the salon because let's be real here, he's not gonna remember where anything in this weird new place is, spends the next hour bitching about service jobs with Ruka when she should be working.

or vice versa. idk which.
dragony: (❥n - 12)

[personal profile] dragony 2014-02-14 10:28 pm (UTC)(link)
LMFAO yes. ruka's easy to ID as an import, what with... that hair...

they're not paying her enough to be on task the whole time anyway

alternately lunch at the HARD ROCK CAFE oh my god i still keep laughing at that
hans ignoring all his other tables, just winds up sitting at hers to bitch

[personal profile] iampretty 2014-02-15 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
both of these options are equally gold.
dragony: (❥n - 17)

[personal profile] dragony 2014-02-15 04:56 am (UTC)(link)
I'M VOTING CAFE

AND AGGRESSIVELY GESTURING WITH DINNER CUTLERY

holds face do we want to do a one-on-one log for this or file it into an open log of someone's somewhere sometime

[personal profile] iampretty 2014-02-15 05:50 am (UTC)(link)
WHATEVER YOU WANT GIRL, I AM FINE WITH ANYTHING.

the only open log of Hans I've got up right now is technically at his house, so maybe we should do a one on one log.
dragony: (❥n - 06)

[personal profile] dragony 2014-02-15 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
holds cheeks yes let's do this
so long as it's not set on valentine's day i am good with anything
(v-day is also her bf's birthday so)

[personal profile] iampretty 2014-02-15 06:20 am (UTC)(link)
we can set it a day or so after the mass intro log goes up. WELCOME TO HEROPA, HAVE A FANCY PARTY, oh no wait back to shitty service jobs.

likes: ... unicorns, and cute clothing
she and rikku may get along yet
dragony: (Default)

[personal profile] dragony 2014-02-15 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
One of the main reasons she's upset about being poor is because she can't replace her wardrobe of cute clothing :C

but Shadow and I were just now talking about the possibility of doing a group house log in the near future; DOES THIS INTEREST YOU
ecphrasis: ascendant_angel @ LJ (Default)

[personal profile] ecphrasis 2014-02-15 12:42 am (UTC)(link)

[personal profile] ecphrasis 2014-02-15 12:44 am (UTC)(link)

glowsferatu: rude, omg (pic#6499828)

Re: ruka!!

[personal profile] glowsferatu 2014-02-15 06:44 am (UTC)(link)
i feel like there should be an awkward salon encounter at some point
dragony: (❥n - 07)

[personal profile] dragony 2014-02-15 06:47 am (UTC)(link)
yes

I will admit my initial imagining of this is with Kanaya doing a Grandpa Simpson.gif on seeing Ruka

but regardless yes this should happen
glowsferatu: smug (pic#6650711)

[personal profile] glowsferatu 2014-02-15 06:51 am (UTC)(link)
i actually imagined the exact same thing

she stands outside for a minute trying to determine how far away the next salon is and if opening a portal there is worth it
reluctantly goes back in, misses living in a bigger city
dragony: (❥n - 06)

[personal profile] dragony 2014-02-15 06:55 am (UTC)(link)
I'm so glad

ruka tries to play nice but will absolutely hold a grudge for life if kanaya leaves a bad tip
glowsferatu: smile (Theres Little Need To Be Bothered)

[personal profile] glowsferatu 2014-02-15 06:59 am (UTC)(link)
she'll be tempted, but ruka kind of didn't throw them out during the apocalypse and all

and she'd have to hear karkat yell about it probably
dragony: (Default)

[personal profile] dragony 2014-02-15 07:00 am (UTC)(link)
when isn't karkat yelling more like
glowsferatu: wait, thought (Kanayashrug)

[personal profile] glowsferatu 2014-02-15 07:03 am (UTC)(link)
i almost said he'd be mad, but that just seemed redundant

it's hard to not make it sound redundant
