CR MEME • OCTOBER 2019


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. 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!
    Where can your character commonly be found? Places that might enable chance meetings, or give a basis for common ground!
    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!

Zaure | Marco

[personal profile] hatestrashcans 2019-10-15 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
( THE BASICS )
Name: Marco
Canon: Animorphs
Character's (approximate) age: 17
Character's powers: Shapeshifting! Into anything alive, if he acquires it first. It's just nice and gross, so don't watch.
Is your character registered/will they be?: He's Registered, but also gives zero fucks so.
Where does your character live?: Right now he lives in a weird old mansion outside of De Chima.
Are you looking for roommates?: Marco's not against it, but he's not going to be seeking out roomies either.
What is your character's job?: Self-employed as both a party attraction (hey kids you wanna swim with a dolphin?) and doing some less than savory activities. Alibi establishing, possibly break-ins, etc. Just some light crime. NBD.

( THE DETAILS )
RUNDOWN -- what are your character's skills, likes/dislikes, urgent needs?: Skills: Being a sarcastic asshole, tactics, manipulating situations to his advantage, confusing people about whether he's a good or bad person, logistics, financial/business/common sense.
Likes: Peter Parker, some other people here, mint ice cream, flying, getting a full night's sleep, mocking others, Romcoms, Kurt Cobain.
Dislikes: People thinking he's a moron because he's 17, amphibians, any form of mind control, Quentin Beck.
Urgent Needs: He's good at the moment, actually.
What are your character's plans?: Well, right now he's on the balancing act of dating Peter Parker, hanging out with some of the 'teens' etc. and starting to work with the Joker of all people. So we'll see how long until that blows up in his face.
Does your character have a secret identity?: Nope. Not unless you count the human morphs he uses to buy booze.
Where can your character commonly be found? He lives in De Chima but honestly you can find Marco pretty much anywhere. Shoutout to the Joker's club and anywhere animal-centered since he likes to goof off in morph.
Is your character open for pairings?: Not at the moment.
Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: Yes to both.
Is your character interested in teams?: Sure. If they're the most advantageous way to accomplish something.
What kind of plots are you after?:

  • Moral clashing with either 'good' guys or 'bad' guys. Marco's fairly amoral when it comes down to it, so where he falls on a given issue often doesn't align with where he 'should' (see: Him in the Would You Rather meme not caring if he's 'better' than murderers or not.

  • On the serious side, exploring his fucked up feelings about the fact that most of his memories of his mother are from when she was a doppleganger? And how he feels about being partially raised by/having a fair amount in common with the evil doppleganger?

  • Helping people adjust to Earth/humans. He's used to that.

  • Finding something he actually likes to do or at least addressing the fact that he has no long-term plans because he needs a ridiculous amount of therapy.

  • Also, negative CR is welcome! He can be an abrasive, dismissive asshole at best and outright evil at worst.

  • People trying to reconcile the fact that he genuinely is a traumatized teenager with an abusive childhood and a child soldier past with him also being really amoral.


Anything else?:

Ngl, I kinda want interactions between these two bc Fett would not at all object to and in fact might encourage Marco's amorality :V

You say amoral, he says 'ruthlessly defining your priorities and problems'. XD

He's a bastard lbr.
