FRIENDTOPIA (our manifesto is fun - zig-a-zow!)

[maskormods]

Welcome to maskormenace's CR MEME!!

How does this work? It's easy!

⒈ 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.
⒉ 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.
⒊ Keep checking back! We strongly encourage you to track top-levels even, if possible. We want to make sure everyone gets their fair shot.
⒋ 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!

james jesse, the trickster | dc comics

[airshow]

( THE BASICS )
Name: James Jesse, aka THE TRICKSTER
Canon: DC Comics
Character's (approximate) age: mid-30s
Character's powers: endless candy pockets, spontaneous toy generation, talks to chickens
Is your character registered/will they be?: yep he loves free shit
Where does your character live?: Heropa individual housing
Are you looking for roommates?: no sir
What is your character's job?: owner and operator of The Frisky Nickel barcade

( THE DETAILS )
RUNDOWN -- what are your character's skills, likes/dislikes, urgent needs?: James is a former circus acrobat turned ex-supervillain nemesis to the Flash who later became a Hollywood special effects tech and then a con-man and subsequently beat the devil twice, and is currently dead due to taking several bullets to the face for a friend. He loves ADRENALINE, PRANKS, being THE SMARTEST PERSON IN THE ROOM, and dressing like the circus came to Margaritaville. He is interested in 1) being really, really annoying at all times and 2) figuring out how to be a decent person and avoid going to hell, which is a major source of anxiety for him.
What are your character's plans?: He's currently torn between the need to keep his head down and not get his ass killed again, and the desire to get involved with stupid dangerous theatrical nonsense, because you never really get over that urge to put on a mask and cape and start some trouble. He really wants to be a good person but is bad at being one. Eventually Mick will be hosting his reformed villain support group at James's bar, so there's that.
Does your character have a secret identity?: He has an alias but it's an open one.
Is your character open for pairings?: technically he's open for ill-advised bisexual flings but he has a terrible personality
Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: JJ is always available to get his ass beat.
Is your character interested in teams?: YES HE'S SO LONELY
What kind of plots are you after?: Shady bastard CR, accidentally adopting more weird preteens (he is good at this), larceny, heists, con jobs, double-crossing (on either side! ON BOTH SIDES?), stupid impromptu road trips, having to work alongside hero types for things. Also I would like him to eventually have to deal with the fact that he's super dead and all his hangups that go along with his morality crisis, but man he's tight-lipped about stuff.
Anything else?:

[restingstitchface]

Eventually Mick will be hosting his reformed villain support group at James's bar

no.

But seriously, I want some shady bastard CR. They both have a habit of adopting specific kinds of preteens and I feel if things get serious and they don't kill each other Crane is a good person to talk to about the fact he's super dead? Cause what if CRANE GAVE GOOD ADVICE???

[airshow]

Oh man that might be really interesting! James is SUPER ANNOYING and deliberately so, but he's also smarter than he lets on and half-decent at having intellectually stimulating conversations if he can shut off his pathological need to be obnoxious for a minute. I feel like if they actually got on the right topic, they could get past their extremely clashing personalities for long enough to have some real talks

maybe

possibly?

also James always has this kind of grudging respect combined with a whole bunch of other complicated emotions re: other supercriminal types, and though he steers FAR FAR AWAY from Gotham when he can, there aren't exactly a whole lot of people here (or anywhere) that Get It, even if they approach things really differently. Especially with Crane trying to walk the straight and narrow! GOTTA STICK TOGETHER (no)

tl;dr yes yes I'd love to pursue this further!

[restingstitchface]

Well, It'll spice up naturally once the meetings start taking place, especially if they start occuring quite soon. The fact Crane's coming might be interesting enough for his COMPLICATED EMOTIONS that he has to ask a slew of questions? Especially if that gets them talking at each other in their inboxes.

Crane's feeling quite homesick so even though James isn't one for getting involved in Gotham business, he's at least from a world where it exists. So there's a mild sense of curiosity there. Especially since he's getting to know Mick better.

[eatsnutsandkicksbutts]

Working alongside hero-types for things, you say? If you ever need someone to try preventing him from Doing Crimes while also being a good listener, I can throw Doreen at him!

(Also, she totally wants to check out his barcade sometime!)

[airshow]

YESSssss definitely! He's pretty good about not getting back on the crime wagon (so to speak) but he really misses the adrenaline rush that came along with Super Crime :'( HELP HIM HAVE FUN DOREEN! Maybe they should foil a burglary together.

I'm planning on doing an open log for the barcade soon! I'LL PING YA

[beneathbluerafters]

SWEET, I might do an open log for Doreen next month! Maybe they could go patrolling!

[accelerate]

totally volunteering barry for a prank since, lbr, this idiot deserves to be pranked. but! also offering him as a hero type for jesse to work alongside. he only knows the mark hamill version and he seems pretty sinister/anti-adding barry on facebook as a friend, so it'd be great for him to learn about this jesse! please annoy barry if you wish!!

[airshow]

YES TO BOTH! he was on pretty good terms with the last barry, so they should definitely chat - he'll probably be vague about that at best, but it's cool, he's a friendly guy. I'M SO UP FOR TEAMUPS, and I'll definitely find an excuse for james to hassle him

maybe just inbox hijacking tbh

mae borowski | night in the woods

[bassackwards]

( THE BASICS )
Name: Mae Borowski
Canon: Night in the Woods
Character's (approximate) age: 20
Character's powers: dreamwalking, can sort of communicate with rats/possums/raccoons/trash animals, and looks like a kitty person + is good at falling off roofs without taking damage
Is your character registered/will they be?: noooo eff the maaan
Where does your character live?: Maurtia Falls #4
Are you looking for roommates?: I THINK we're full up
What is your character's job?: unemployed loser

( THE DETAILS )
RUNDOWN -- what are your character's skills, likes/dislikes, urgent needs?: Mae is a socially anxious but surprisingly chatty millennial weirdo who really needs friends but is bad at people. She plays bass guitar (very badly) and has few qualms about minor property damage and/or breaking and entering. She doesn't have much of a filter so she'll gladly chat anyone up about prison gangs and cannibalism if that's where the conversation goes.
What are your character's plans?: that is not a thing mae is capable of having
Does your character have a secret identity?: no
Is your character open for pairings?: this is the worst idea but she is pansexual so feel free to try to date this mature adult furry
Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: go for it
Is your character interested in teams?: this seems ill-advised at best
What kind of plots are you after?: Two things! The easy one: youthful delinquent shenanigans. The tougher one: DREAMS. Details are at the bottom of that link - I'd love to do something with her dreamwalking/prophecy powers soon, so if anyone has something that they'd like to have vaguely and ominously foreshadowed in an unsettling dream sequence, HIT ME UP.
Anything else?:

[eloquentness]

I really enjoyed our thread so I would be down for more shenanigans!! Maybe even of the "tries to buy Iris a gift basket, wanders into her flower shop by mistake to do it" kind of variety??

(also y'know, Iris should probably meet James, so that would be a+ too)

[bassackwards]

YES TO BOTH OF THESE THINGS! That actually sounds like a super perfect setup for continuing Mae+Iris CR and I'd be happy to set up a log for that in the near future ♥

and yessssss I gotta have James stalk the Flashcast more, he's fallen off the wagon. I'm probably posting with him sooooonish so I can ping you for that for sure!

if you'd like to add me on plurk for future stuff, I'm over here!

[eloquentness]

If you could (both setting up a log, if it's not much trouble, and future pinging whenever), that would be incredible!! I've been terrible about keeping up with cast stuff myself, so it's really no big.

I've gone ahead and sent a friend request, then! ♥

[ghoulking]

I love the threads I have with Mae and that clearly means I need more. Kaneki is not a delinquent so I can't offer that (he is a nice good boy who just happens to eat ppl ok), but man, i'm id' love literally anything else. dumb stuff or not!

and the dreams, welp, kaneki has chronic insomnia, his dreams are nightmarish at best and he usually doesn't remember them )= idk if it would be interesting.

[bassackwards]

YES TO BOTH ♥ mae is down for dumb stuff or #deep stuff, often in the same conversation. I'd love them to get to know each other better!

and that sounds suuuuper interesting :O especially if there's something that you'd want him to remember from them, maybe? or just wandering around fucked up dreamscapes, that also sounds cool

[ghoulking]

both happening in the same conversation sounds like an amazing plan

he also ask to ask about the furry thing because you are a giant cat mae have you noticed that


AS FOR THE DREAM well, kaneki is dying. he doesn't know this yet, buuuut yes, his body is rotting from inside and he can at least rememeber a dream where he is dying because how nice would that be. PLUS FUCKED UP DREAMSCAPES ALSO MATCHES so that can happen : D

[bassackwards]

THE FURRY THING IS TOTALLY NORMAL WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT MAYBE YOU'RE THE WEIRD ONE HUH

ps mae is canonically cannibal-curious so she needs to learn about this and ask awkward questions of her own

THAT SOUNDS LIKE A SUPER FUN DREAM
I am all about this body horror and trauma
mae is slightly less all about that but it's really not up to her

Re: mae borowski | night in the woods

[d33tached]

I know they haven't interacted much, but I would love in the future to have Mae walk into one of D33's dreams tbh. He has a few reoccurring ones that would be interesting to play with but they're a little effed up.

Anyway, I'm open to plotting about that or whatever else if you want to! Also, Red will be your friend, Mae.

[bassackwards]

That sounds GREAT! And honestly it could be a cool way to get past goofy surface level CR, so I'd be up for it sometime for sure! Effed up is allllll good, Mae's canon is surprisingly dark for how cute it looks.

[d33tached]

Cool! Do you mind if I shoot you a PP on plurk about plotting something maybe? I've been dying for someone to take a peek into this dude's psyche

[bassackwards]

Go right ahead!

[continuousgroaning]

Tina thinks Mae is adorable and I feel like she could coerce/nudge Tina into some juvenile delinquency. IT WOULD BE FUN FOR GOODY TWO-SHOES TINA TO GET INTO SOME TROUBLE

[bassackwards]

GASP YES. I think they're next door neighbors so we gotta make it happen

mae will even try to be a good role model and make it technically not too illegal trouble, she can be an okay person sometimes!!

[continuousgroaning]

you tried, mae

IDK how familiar you are with Tina's canon but she can easily be persuaded to get on with her bad self if the idea comes from someone she wants to make friends with, so. I made a catchalll if you'd like them to bump into each other.
