why are you dressed so scary?



Welcome to [community profile] maskormenace's sixteenth
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. 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!

How do you counsel someone who has no hope? Because blah blah emotional trauma there's no hope in living cause you're gonna fail to save someone anyway

EVERYONE AND THEIR TRAUMATIC PASTS.

Which is to say yes, we can totally play around with that! Are you participating in the memoryshare event? Maybe they can contrast their memories.

BLAME THE CANON NOT THE CHARACTER

But I hadn't planned to participate in the memoryshare in any great detail, tbh. I feel there's more development for Victor if he can open up about the traumatic stuff, as opposed to having it played out. How would Saint Walker's power ring react to someone that's pretty much a walking pile of despair? When it comes to making constructs, anyway. I've double checked the description in his journal and what Victor aims for in canon is immensely driven by desire more than anything else.

Hahah yes, that's fair! I just thought I'd check in case you wanted to use that as a head start.

Anyway, Walker's ring works on even people who claim to have lost all hope unless they're truly hopeless. It would dig deep into the most concealed bits of their heart to materialize what they hope for deep down. If you want to interpret him as truly hopeless, that's fine, but chances are it'll work on something in there.
