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!

The Lounge is in Maurtia Falls, if that helps? I was going to volunteer it for Team Skull graffiti but had lots going on in RL at the time. Plus it's not the best way for Team Skull to make their impression on him? It's funny if we can work it in somehow. Though Crane's probably not someone the grunts want to piss off unless they want to get spooked. Which might cause Guzma to come down...

But hell. The place does serve good booze. None of the crap stuff. That might work in and of its own?

Edit: Also Crane understands about wanting approval, though he's gotten past that stage. He'd listen but not judge.

Oh man, if it's in MF that works great. Guzma frequents different bars and what not all the time, so we could even handwave that he's gone there before and Crane has seen him a couple times, but obviously hadn't engaged him? Guzma could have likely seen Crane too, but he's less likely to remember some rando unless they've left a noteworthy impression on him. From looks alone, Crane's pretty much a normie in Guzma's book.

I'm also down for his grunts stupidly graffitiing the place too, maybe they did it while he's recovering, so he's fresh out of the hospital and has to deal with them pissing off the wrong person. But that's to be expected from a gaggle of idiots. Either way, the grunts are gonna be particularly stupid and rowdy while their boss is recovering, because what's a bunch of maladjusted, directionless, and stupid vandals to do when the guy with the single brain cell among them isn't present?

Also good on Crane re: not judging. That lack of judgment will go a long way with Guzma, but man does he wish he could get over wanting anyone's approval, but them the breaks.

Ooh, Guzma seeing him before but just thinking he's so bland and boring works wonders! Crane does use his "Dr Crane" persona to hide in plain sight so it's almost a compliment. I'm happy to handwave him being there before since it's an open place and he wouldn't be denied entry or anything.

I've just upped an open log so we can also handwave the grunts being stupid off-screen if you want. Just the thought of Guzma going there and demanding Crane to show him to the club's boss and then being told "well actually it's me" is pretty damn amusing. Because it's such a contrast to what he's expecting?

If that's good for you?

Yeah this works perfectly! Guzma would definitely just write him off and not expect much else from him, which will impress him when he finds out that's not the case. Definitely gonna make him think of Lusamine, which is a huge boon.

I'll definitely hit the log up, and forward date it for when he's out of the hospital. I can't believe that Guzma and Crane are gonna meet properly because Guzma's essentially pulling a "Can I speak to your manager". What a time to be alive.
