CR MEME • FEBRUARY 2020
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. New characters may get accepted and post to this meme after today and 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!
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 copypasta box:
Sage's Gyllenhaals
Individual character info below.
John Morris | The Sisters Brothers
Name: John Morris
Canon: The Sisters Brothers (film)
Character's (approximate) age: 35
Character's powers: (all non-canon)
1. Midas Touch - he can turn anything to gold with a touch, with a daily value limit of approx $100 US. Anything else that day becomes Fool's Gold. He also has to hold on for the thing to completely transform. If he lets go, the gold reverses and returns to normal.
2. Soothing Aura - people spending prolonged time in his company will feel calmer and less aggressive. This only happens in person and not everyone is affected.
Is your character registered/will they be?: Yes, registered
Where does your character live?: Nonah 004
Are you looking for roommates?: Residence is currently full
What is your character's job?: Fraud Investigator with Gold Standard Bank
( THE DETAILS )
RUNDOWN -- what are your character's skills, likes/dislikes, urgent needs?: Morris very much enjoys people watching and writing about his day and adventures in his journal. Despite his slightly bewildered and mild mannered appearance, he's very sharp minded and good in a human-level fight, having been a bounty hunter of sorts. And a well respected one. He's just a man very out of his time of 1851 so he's still adjusting. He's considered an expert at tracking people down yet he has high morals and generally is friendly toward others. He very much frowns on excessive or unnecessary violence, although he won't hesitate to defend himself with a punch or a gun. Even though he's associated with gold in a Gold Rush era, he's not greedy and believes in making a better life for people as well as himself. Born into wealth, he had a falling out with his family and rejected his inheritance for a time.
What are your character's plans?: Make some friends. Learn more about the modern world and how to better use his powers.
Does your character have a secret identity?: No
Where can your character commonly be found? Around Nonah
Is your character open for pairings?: Sure
Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: Sure
Is your character interested in teams?: Sure
What kind of plots are you after?: Any random CR! But I would love for some greedy people to try to exploit his gold making power.
Anything else?: He has an open post here.
Detective David Wayne Loki | Prisoners
Name: David Wayne Loki
Canon: Prisoners (film)
Character's (approximate) age: 33
Character's powers: (non-canon)
1. Healing Touch - he can lay hands over a wound and heal a person but it transfers onto himself, to a lesser degree of injury. He can also relocate his own injuries to less life-threatening areas on his body (but cannot heal himself).
2. Enhanced Instincts - if he concentrates (and causes his mind more stress), his detective instincts are enhanced to better avoid danger and solve crimes
Is your character registered/will they be?: Yes, registered
Where does your character live?: Maurtia Falls independent housing
Are you looking for roommates?: No
What is your character's job?: Private Investigator (Detective)
( THE DETAILS )
RUNDOWN -- what are your character's skills, likes/dislikes, urgent needs?: Detective Loki is a bit of a loner, dedicated to his work as a detective. He is quick to risk his life to protect others and rarely gets any rest. His mind is overworked and highly stressed out. He needs some more relaxing hobbies and people who will insist he take a break. He has a great interest in finding the 'truth', and that goes for solving crimes or seeking out supernatural or religious figures to better understand them and their point of view. He's been long disillusioned by corruption in the church and organised religions and so seeks spiritual truths everywhere. His biggest asset (and sometimes negative feature) is his determination. He just doesn't give up.
What are your character's plans?: Establishing his detective agency and solving crimes
Does your character have a secret identity?: No
Where can your character commonly be found? Patrolling around Maurtia Falls
Is your character open for pairings?: Sure
Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: Sure
Is your character interested in teams?: He prefers to work alone but sure, he can team-up and he has some other detective contacts
What kind of plots are you after?: Anything! I'd love for there to be some cases for him to solve or general crimes where he can go arrest criminals. He's also always on the lookout for religious figures to speak to.
Anything else?: Usually he tries to remain calm but sometimes his frustration shows...
Quentin Beck (Mysterio) | MCU/Spider-Man
Name: Quentin Beck
Canon: Marvel Cinematic Universe (Spider-Man: Far From Home)
Character's (approximate) age: 38
Character's powers: (fake in canon; real here)
Mysterio powers - flight; gathering powerful energy to either attack or defend; generally enhanced agility and resilience. Previously, when he arrived, he could only access these powers when wearing his suit. Recently there was a change and now he can use these powers any time.
Is your character registered/will they be?: Yes, registered
Where does your character live?: De Chima apartment housing
Are you looking for roommates?: No, but currently Harley Quinn has been staying in the spare room on and off
What is your character's job?: Motivational Speaker
( THE DETAILS )
RUNDOWN -- what are your character's skills, likes/dislikes, urgent needs?: Beck is a showman with a huge ego and arrogance to match. He hates being ignored, overlooked or underappreciated and will go to extreme (and deadly) lengths to prove his own worth. He is a tech genius and has created an amazing, potentially helpful system, but his unstable and selfish ways prevent him from being an actual decent guy or hero. His goals are to be respected and listened to, yet his over the top antics (and costume choices) make him a mockery. Unfortunately, he can't see what the problems are in how he acts. He tends to always think he's in the right and justified even in his worst actions, resulting in harm to others. He generally doesn't have bad intentions but the way he goes about things is questionable at best and often dangerous to other people's safety or mental health. He has no qualms about messing with people if he thinks it will see him accomplish his own goals. He probably needs real therapy with somebody willing to listen and somehow reason with him. Not an easy task. Personally, he thinks he needs more people working on his show. He also loves films and film-making, especially when it comes to visual effects and has been steering down that path lately, putting his efforts into making a live play/short film.
What are your character's plans?: He's been working on his big live performance for some months, still gathering crew for a potential short film and live show - primarily showing off himself and his 'heroics'. He's also still working on his tech, for various end goals.
Does your character have a secret identity?: Not secret but aka Mysterio
Where can your character commonly be found? All over. He'll often make flights around each city. Or can be seen giving speeches, as his official job
Is your character open for pairings?: Sure
Are you open to having your character get hurt? Or, for villains, hurt others?: Sure
Is your character interested in teams?: Sure
What kind of plots are you after?: Random things always welcome! Throw characters together and see what happens. Beck can go either way with turning more villainous just by his delusional & unstable sociopathic nature, even as he does think he's still playing the hero and with real, unhindered powers believes he may be able to prove it. But his selfishness and ego often gets in the way. His is a very winding path with many ups and downs and twists and turns. Negative and positive CR, all welcome.
Anything else?:

Or maybe Jonathan could have heard about Wayne funding Beck's project by giving him $45,000 after their auction 'date'. Not sure how public that is though, or what employees might know.
