( 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!

Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: If yes, how much and in what circumstances?

Stormtrooper Sergeant TK-622 | Star Wars

[loyal_soldier]

( THE BASICS )
Name: TK-622
Canon: Star Wars (Legends)
Character's (approximate) age: 12, but physically and mentally mid-20s (growth accelleration is super depressing, kids.)
Character's powers: Improbably good aim (har har), summon stormtrooper gear, shoot lightning like a certain omlette-faced madman
Is your character registered/will they be?: Definitely registered.
Where does your character live?: De Chima #004
Are you looking for roommates?: We're full up, apparently!
What is your character's job?: Scoutmaster at the Sooper Trooper Kids Club, serving his new Emperor in his capacity as, uh. The entirety of the local Stormtrooper Corps.

( THE DETAILS )
RUNDOWN:
Skills: Well, when he's not shooting at people who the plot needs to stay alive, he's a highly competent soldier. And like. Literally nothing else. He did really well in the pie fight, I guess??
Likes: Highly structured environments, fellow soldiers, staying fit, tasty food, not getting blown up
Dislikes: Disorder, rebels and other criminals, getting blown up
Urgent Needs: Honestly? Counseling, and environments that don't trigger his probable PTSD. Also pineapple pizza.
General rambling: 622 is--as his really on-the-nose journal name suggests--a devoted soldier of the Empire. He'll protect the innocent and fight bad guys, because he has no idea he is one of the bad guys.

He's still privately mourning his commander and only friend who was assassinated a day before his arrival on Earth, but he doesn't know how to process what he's feeling. With only a tiny handful of Imperials here, he's in a vulnerable position and is very aware of it. Any trustworthy allies, especially with military backgrounds, will be welcomed.

He's also gullible as fuck, which contributed to tragedy back home, but here he's mostly just failed to notice Poe Dameron is a thing that he's friends with.

622's entire life has been spent within the context of the Imperial military, and he only has the vaguest understanding of civilian life. He doesn't like to be around crowds or certain kinds of roadways, and he's liable to be jumpy about strange things: trash bags out for collection, fast-moving lights, the sound that wires make if you hit them with something, and on and on. He can seem perfectly fine one moment, and then completely on alert.

He has no hobbies, no pastimes, and no social life that he'll engage in unless someone else initiates it, or by literal accident. He goes for a run in the morning, goes to work, goes to the gym, gets chores done, comes back home, cleans, and then goes to bed. Every single day. He doesn't really know he's allowed to do anything else.

He might like to find out what else is out there, but not too fast: he's easily overwhelmed by this stuff.

What are your character's plans?: Continue doing his job. As said, other options are simply not understood.
Does your character have a secret identity?: Technically. Poe--I mean TIE FIGHTER PILOT CAPTAIN JOE--told him to not broadcast who he is on the network, and gave him a name to use instead: Taiko. This would be a lot more effective if he knew how to change his display name.
Is your character open for pairings?: Y E P. He's never been in a relationship, unless you count the ambiguous status between himself and his now deceased commander. He'd not be receptive to someone filling that particular role, but that's a very specific kind of relationship that's relatively unlikely to be a problem here.
Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: Both. His life was short and tragic and I am willing to add to that within reason. He's also a soldier and can and will kill or very seriously hurt people if they present a threat to Imperial officers, himself, or the civilian population, in that approximate order.
Is your character interested in teams?: Yes. He's already on a team, but he's used to being surrounded by somewhere between hundreds and literal millions of Imperial personnel. They need more to work with than what they've got, so he wants allies.
What kind of plots are you after?: 622 needs to deal with a couple of things. He hasn't fully processed the death of his commander, and he doesn't fully understand that he's a person. I'm not even kidding. He was created to be an interchangeable component of the Imperial war machine, and he's dealt with that by accepting it as fact.

This does not mean that I want him to defect from the Empire: that would not be true to his character. But things will get repetitive if he doesn't eventually branch out. Interactions that could help move him slowly towards a shift in his thinking about himself would be appreciated, in whatever form they take.
Anything else?: I'm on Plurk at PaleAntiquarian, and Discord at CellarSpider#9984.

[knaval]

big "made for war and war only" mood

[loyal_soldier]

cybertron is the most amazing trashfire about that, no matter the continuity

(I'm mostly familiar with G1, BW and TFA, I never know where to start with the comics orz)

[knaval]

FOR REAL LMAO

here's a run down on the comics issues specifically

[loyal_soldier]

man it's even more depressing than I remember it being WELL DONE IDW

[knaval]

it's almost on the same level as tk's life...

[loyal_soldier]

I mean 622 at least got 9 years before he got sent out into combat

it was just spent in nothing but training or brainwashing

yeah that's not much of a counterpoint really

This makes like, the third droid, robot, or mech he's got stuff in common with by this point. Can meatbags get honorary mech status (without being the most irritating thing in the show)?

[knaval]

he can get honourary depressed idiot status for sure :|b

[loyal_soldier]

nah he already passed his certification for that. He's got a license for it and everything

[knaval]

he can join the club then

they have tshirts and everything

[loyal_soldier]

fucken sweet he looks great in tshirts

Re: Stormtrooper Sergeant TK-622 | Star Wars

[art_of_war]

So 622 and Thrawn are, like, at the polar opposite ends of the Imperial war machine.

There needs to be CR somehow between them. Don't ask me how bc I don't know how. Thrawn is a socially awkward weirdo that has thus far been terrible at talking to people. But there does.

[loyal_soldier]

622 is actually doing check-ins with all Imperial personnel this week, due to the event. He's trying to figure out who's still here and in how many pieces. While Hux said Thrawn hasn't "proven" himself loyal and that's worrying, 622 is still earnestly trying to make sure everything stays organized.

He knows Thrawn's core name, so he could probably find him on the network for an IC contact comment, if you'd like.

[vanto]

if all else fails, you know Eli is always happy to dropname thrawn everywhere at any time.........

[stretchy_girl]

Can I throw Gemini at TK sometime for some casual flirting? Would he have any idea what was happening or how to respond?

[loyal_soldier]

You totally can and he totally won't! :D At most he knows flirting as "that thing non-clones do which confuses me terribly".

[stretchy_girl]

D'aww! If you have an open top-level sometime let me know via pm or plurk and I'll tag right in :)

[loyal_soldier]

I have an open log here, which is probably the best place for that at the moment! It's pre-event, and he might be getting into some Drama post-event that I can't predict at the moment. Betrayal by a friend and all that.

Lucien Lachance | The Elder Scrolls

[applewatcher]

( THE BASICS )
Name: Lucien Lachance
Canon: The Elder Scrolls
Character's (approximate) age: It is so goddamn hard to tell, but I guess 40s.
Character's powers: Imperial/Breton mixed heritage, Dark Brotherhood magic, Dreamwalking: Murderer Edition!
Is your character registered/will they be?: Yes. It's easier to appear law-abiding when he's not working.
Where does your character live?: Heropa #001, various little safehouses around the cities.
Are you looking for roommates?: Not really!
What is your character's job?: Radio host, aaaaand Speaker for the Dark Brotherood.

( THE DETAILS )
RUNDOWN: He kills people! I mean. That's the really obvious part. Lucien is an assassin who's spent most of his life in a cult/guild that worships an ancient chaotic deity and its bride. He grew up with this, it's defined his life, and this is what he loves doing. He really does love and care for his adoptive family.

And he needs more family members. Anyone who's committed a murder is eligible, and if they join will fall under his protection and mentorship, if they require either.

When pretending to be a normal citizen, he's friendly and approachable and likes being around people. This is no different than how he is among his family, except the creepiness factor gets dialed up by like, ten. He's always looking to talk to people and make connections.
What are your character's plans?: He's working with Finn (fireandhoney) to restart the Dark Brotherhood here. That is his one and only goal. That means recruiting murderers and getting people to hire them, through religiously acceptable means.
Does your character have a secret identity?: Uh. Yup.
Is your character open for pairings?: Yep!
Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: ahahahaha yes. Lucien's a highly trained assassin, but he's still human. That catches up with him in canon. And as for hurting people, YEAH.
Is your character interested in teams?: In civilian mode, yeah, he'll happily work with other people. His allegiance is totally to the Brotherhood, however.
What kind of plots are you after?: Friends! Family! Murder! I mean, what more could you want?
Anything else?: This is his voice. I feel it's relevant to people's decisions, and often works as a good bribery tool.
