December EMP Meme
FOR GAME ADS: ➤ Put an ad up with the characters / crew / pairings / fetish you want for your game under the correct game header. This meme is primarily going to be focused on DWRP games but IJ and LJ games are allowed. ➤ PLEASE NOTE A RULE CHANGE HERE. ABSOLUTELY NO obnoxious coding (no font size > size 4 or 3 "big" tags, no oversized banners (they must be 250px in height or less), no blinking text, no obnoxious table html that doesn't collapse easily, no sparklies, no large pictures). Use all the colors you like, but please remember 3 "big" tags is the limit and that's only for headers or title text rather than for all the text in an ad. FOR GAME QUESTIONS: ➤ RPers interested in a game can create a header for the game and ask questions about that game that aren't easy to find on faqs, such as the actual pace vs. what's listed/what kind of plots are run/if the game leans more towards plotty or slice of life/if a game leans more towards network or logs, etc. Both anon questions and anon answers are welcome in this section just like in the rest of the meme. ➤ This thread is not for speaking about wank or drama in a game. There are anoncomms that exist for that. This thread is specifically for general questions about a game that rpers want to get perspective on from players already in the game. Answers can be slightly negative (such as saying app response is slow or that the plots are repetitive or similar things) but this should at least be worded politely. Unnecessary vitriol, any mention of personal drama or wank, or mod teams/individual mods/players being singled out, will be screened and/or deleted. FOR CHARACTER ADS: ➤ Put up an ad about the characters you are offering. For PSL/1-on-1 ads, there is a separate subthread but for character ads for games, post directly to the meme post. Others will comment to you with the games/casts they want you to join. ➤ There is a "Find a Castmate" section, where you can talk about a cast you play in at a game, and try to lure people to join it. Not all games post to the meme or have a "wanted" section, so players that want to tempt people to their cast on their own can use this section for it. Please format this the same as the PSL/1-on-1 section, where you post the canons in your subject. For the actual text of the ad you must use the "Find a Castmate" form provided at the bottom of this post so that these ads don't get huge. When listing who's currently in a cast, please do this in sentence form (with commas) rather than in list form. ➤ ABSOLUTELY NO obnoxious coding, with the same rules as the Game Ads Section above. ➤ If you're recommending a game to someone, try to match your suggestion to their needs. It's okay if part of your game rec is copy-pasted (such as what the game's about), but at least some part of the rec must be personalized to their ad. Try not to recommend the same game to every single ad, either. Ad spam that isn't individualized in some way will also be screened. IN GENERAL: ➤ Don't be a dick. This isn't one of the anoncomms, so any snide comments or unnecessary commentary on the RP plans of others will be screened. MOD CONTACT: If there's trouble, tell me HERE, please!

Also, thank you for the character choice approval!

The group who attacked her people is called the Citadel and their species is called the Gordanians. They might be a group the Galra has vaguely heard of but hasn't worried about much yet since their control over planets is only in one far away area of the galaxy.
Do you have a musebox? If not, it can be started on either character's journal. I don't have any real preference for where to start the PSL.

I'm thinking it would make the most sense to set it during his exile. I'm sure he traveled to various places, both near and far from Galra influence. It certainly makes sense for there to be distant civilizations that the Galra have heard of but not yet been able to take steps to conquer. Did you have any particular ideas for their meeting? I'm very flexible.
I'm also fine with starting it in either character's journal!

One idea I had was for them to meet at one of the Galra gladiatorial pits. Perhaps he's looking to take over someone's territory in the outer areas? He still conquered planets and had resources during his exile. His exile was probably something along the lines of "If he can conquer the territory, hold it, and isn't betraying the Galra empire, he's welcome to whatever he manages to take"
So maybe there are some prisoners - some who committed crimes against the Galra, some who just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, and they're given the option of enslavement or fighting in the pits. Blackfire opts for the fighting pits and Lotor sees the opportunity to take this territory for himself - by discreetly making an offer to the prisoners and slipping them weapons beyond what the Galra will give them to create a chaotic diversion that will let them fight for their freedom. Blackfire is bright and opportunistic enough to realize what Lotor is up to and chooses to help him beyond what she needs to do to escape because she'd like a potential ally in opposing her people's enemies. And thus they can start getting to know each other from there.
If you like the idea, I don't mind setting up a starter! Otherwise, I'm open to other options.

One thing I do like about his exile period is that, other than what we're explicitly told about certain projects, there's a lot of room for interpretation and making things up! Especially as it's quite a long span of time—so it's possible to have Lotor do all kinds of things in that period. I do agree that as long as he stayed out of the empire's way, and especially his father's, he would still have a lot of freedom in some regards.
I'm fine with him remaining on the fringes for part of the time, enough to get caught up in some business at the pits, if you would be fine with writing a starter up.
