May 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 either frozen or screened (based on what seems right based on the content). FOR CHARACTER ADS: ➤ Put up an ad about the characters you are offering. For PSL 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 section, where you post your character's 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. ➤ There is a "Find Crosscanon" section, where you can talk about a character you play and and desired crosscanon for that character. Please make sure this is not too generalized a search, because just wanting general crosscanon can be accomplished with the other sections of the meme. This is for specific characters or character types you're looking for. In the subject, please list the "Looking for [canon you're looking for]" rather than your character's canon. If looking for a character type, list the character type in as few words as possible. Do not make the subject huge or I'll screen your comment. For the actual text of the ad you must use the "Find Crosscanon" form provided at the bottom of this post so that these ads don't get huge. This section is only for game crosscanon as in the psl section people can list their preferences. ➤ Examples of crosscanon you can search for: You play The Flash from DC Comics and your dream CR is fellow speedster Quicksilver from Marvel. Or you might play a witch and want cr with other witches in general. Or maybe you play a good character messed up by evil parents and want to play against a villain character you know has evil parents, because you know it'd lead to some interesting negative CR. ➤ 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 frozen or screened. Keep in mind this needs to be more specific than "this game has easy AC like you're asking for but meets none of your other requirements." Make sure you're advertising games that might click with that specific character, where a few elements fit what they're looking for. You should be thinking about the story reasons of how the character might click with the game. 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 frozen or screened. MOD CONTACT: If there's trouble, tell me HERE, please!

I will not pay attention to IPs otherwise. I don't care what people like playing or who's who. So please feel comfortable to keep doing your thing, anon or otherwise. The knowledge will only be used for really egregious problem cases. |
x-men comics, cross-canon
Ruth Aldine | X-Men comics |
Kate Pryde | X-Men comics |
For Ruth:
• The spiel: An eyeless psychic who stumbles through her sentences and sees way too many futures all at once. Finally back from the dead. May or may not have a body, depending on when we take her from. Here's her permissions.
• Gen stuff: Would love to write Ruth interacting with other mutants she knew as a teen / other members of her messy-ass family (since she's descended from Destiny, she's technically a sort of great-niece to Rogue and Kurt + great-grandaughter by marriage to Mystique??? ridiculous) / literally any mutants as she gets used to the new mutant status quo. Crosscanon-wise, Ruth fits well into other settings with magic, superpowers, or the supernatural.
• Shipping: Ruth/David! Or else other mutants around her age (she's late teens - early 20s depending on timeframe) or interesting crosscanon characters. Ruth is drawn to people who are confident, intriguing, patient with her particular brand of weirdness, and intent on saving the world. If someone is messy but redeemable, there's a good chance they'll have her interest.
For Kate:
• The spiel: Kitty Pryde, except she doesn't go by Kitty anymore - and if you haven't read comics since she did, she's probably not what you remember. In her late 20s/early 30s, can walk through walls, has a ship called the Marauder and a dragon called Lockheed. Dedicated to the red coat and tattooed knuckles aesthetic. This is her infopost.
• Gen stuff: Fellow pirates of all time periods, superheroes, mutants in general, anyone who might have a good time drinking a little too much with this woman. She's good for shooting the shit and also plottier shit, since her canon vibe these days is "sails around the world (and into space, I guess) rescuing mutants."
• Shipping: I'm most interested in crosscanon or mutants she hasn't been in a relationship with in canon. Kate's last attempt at romance ended in a pretty messy way - she left her childhood crush at the altar, whoops - and frankly, she could stand to try some new things. "No-strings-attached turns into many-strings-attached by accident" is a good vibe for her. Fake dating AUs and shit like that would also be great with her.
other stuff:
PM me or reply here, and let's chat. I love AUing characters into other canons, crosscanon CR, and experimenting with stuff we never saw in canon. I'm happy to hammer out AUs as needed and write starters to get us going.

second i have. a dire lack of katyana in my life? i'd want to brush up a little on some runs and get back in the swing of writing illyana, but i'd loooove to toss her at kate and let all their shared history pay off somehow, if you're interested? especially since marvel's been like lucy with the football about these two for like 40 years.
