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


Welcome to [community profile] maskormenace's 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!

( THE BASICS )
Name: Motoko Kusanagi
Canon: Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex
Character's (approximate) age: mid-30's
Character's powers: Cyborg body, cyber brain, thermoptic camouflage
Is your character registered/will they be?: Not at the moment.
Where does your character live?: Individual housing in Maurtia Falls.
Are you looking for roommates?: No.
What is your character's job?: She does cyber security consulting.

( THE DETAILS )
RUNDOWN -- what are your character's skills, likes/dislikes, urgent needs?: The Major is an incredibly skilled squad leader, hacker, and hand-to-hand fighter. She's one of those people that's basically good at whatever she sets out to do. She likes technology, philosophy, trench coats, ridiculous skimpy outfits, and being in charge. She dislikes people not following her orders, crime, and kids.
What are your character's plans?: Currently, she's investigating Constellation.
Does your character have a secret identity?: Nope.
Is your character open for pairings?: Sure.
Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: Sure! The Major is all about losing limbs.
Is your character interested in teams?: Maybe? She's used to being in charge, though, so make of that what you will.
What kind of plots are you after?: Anything! I like slice of life, or superhero teamups, or hard-boiled investigations. I'd love to do more with Constellation folks given that she's trying to oppose your group.

Investigating the Constellation huh? That's not something that will end well for you Major :P

Can the Major's cyber brain be hacked at all? Because I was thinking if the Constellation were to find out about her investigations they might take action to discredit or turn her (temporarily of course!) using malware?

It's possible, but it would be exceedingly difficult. The only time she's ever hacked in-canon is when she opens herself up to it by directly linking with someone else's mind. Otherwise, she has layers of defenses and her cyber-brain is exceedingly more complex than the computers of the era in-game.

One option they might have is that the Major does have a second body that she remote controls--if they capture it, they can try to remote control it themselves to impersonate her. It's basically a less capable version of her own body built with in-game technology, so it's more possible than hacking into her actual brain.

Well hacking is definitely out then, lol. What about the Major's prosthetic body, are there any gaps that Gemini could exploit to slither in?

I'm thinking this because if it ever came to a fight between Gemini or the Major, or she needed a way to discredit her by having her attack her own friends, this is what she'd do :(

You mean physically slither into her body? Well, there's the standard gaps that anyone's body has, but some art shows her prosthetic body as being slightly segmented at the limbs, so that's a possibility as well.

We haven't threaded, but Major is great and I think her and Jotaro could get some good cr? He's a stoic with the emotional range of cabbage and is a serious sort of guy.

Serious and with the emotional range of a cabbage? Sounds like they're destined to be best friends. I'm down for them meeting!
