February EMP Meme

ENABLEMEPLZ

meme goes up on the Second Saturday of every month

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.

All mod responses regardless of whether they're rule breaks, correction requests (like someone posting in the wrong section), or thwapping someone for spamming copy-paste ads, have always been and will almost universally be public. If someone sends a PM and the conversation gets combative, this will also be made public and posted to the comments of the mod contact page. This is for the sake of transparency so people can judge the emp mod's communications for fairness themselves.

There are times where the player's post may be screened (such as if they posted to the wrong section) but the mod's response will be left unscreened.

Players may sometimes be allowed more than one strike for copy-paste ads since this is often just enthusiasm behind it, but game mods should know better. They'll get one warning for copy-paste ads, and if they spam anymore copy-paste ads after the warning, they'll be banned from the meme.

MOD CONTACT:

If there's trouble, tell me HERE, please!

Frozen little survival game, pretty chill and the plot is just starting to come out so things are really starting to get interesting with lots of chances to torment your muses lol. Characters are depowered but can gain powers in game!
Characters recently had a dream about and brush with a powerful figure that Levi swears is Gro-Goroth, I'd love it if he could get some backup on that theory :3

ARKNIGHTS @ STICKS AND BONES

[personal profile] succiduous 2024-02-11 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
[game]: [community profile] sticksandbones / Current TDM / FAQ
[fandom]: Arknights
[game's current cast]: Gnosis, Kreide, Mizuki, Passenger, Sesa, SilverAsh
[who I play]: Gnosis & Passenger
[wanted]: Any and all Arknights! Come here! Bring us your Arknights we're clinically insane! I personally would love more Karlan Trade folks, but we will literally take anyone. We vibe.
[game info]: Sticks & Bones is a small, plot-heavy, fantasy-horror type game where everything tends to go south at any one moment. Sometimes the haunted woods likes to play high-stakes life-or-death games with us. Sometimes the lady in charge of the trader's stall gives us cuddle-inducing chocolates by accident. Sometimes the deer have too many eyes and legs. The game focuses on reincarnation: all characters were once here in a past life, were reincarnated into their current lives, and then brought here under Mysterious Circumstances™.

Also, half the Arknights cast is living out of Gnosis' lab, so y'know, it's going well.

Our TDMs are bi-monthly, so the next one will be in March, but January's is linked above and still good to tag! Just like... shoot me the link to your toplevel... I don't check the old TDM every day. Occasionally there are sub-events that go on, but for the most part, we're small and chill. AC is only 10 comments a month, split up between two threads of 5 comments with two different characters.

If you have any questions, feel free to DM me or ask here, I'm one of the head mods so I'm happy to answer! <3

Some questions regarding the game

[personal profile] bloodyopus 2024-02-11 09:00 am (UTC)(link)
Hello! The small size of the game, the general existence of castmates including a Gnosis, and the premise did intrigue me, however...I do have a few questions regarding the game. and pardon me if I missed anything in the game info, since I haven't had the time and energy to comb through all of it just yet.

1. The AC requirements seems relaxed, but...how exactly would you define 'plot heavy'? Are the monthly events and sub-events all mandatory? I hope this didn't sound stupid (since I wasn't quite sure how to phrase it), but I essentially would like to know how plot heavy is the game, since I'd be juggling between writing here and in another platform, and between that and RL responsibilities, I wouldn't be able to pull off too many mandatory events at a time. my old back would go on a strike

2. I distinctly recalled reading body horror being listed in the possible content warnings, and I'd like to know...any chance that this would happen to our characters? Because I'm not sure that I feel entirely comfortable writing this theme, at least if it's mandatory for our characters. (If not, I'd actually likely be interested as long as I'm comfortable with the environment. Just unfortunately have had some bad experiences with forced/godmodded things, for example sudden chara deaths, during events in other platforms, so I'm reasonably a little wary.)

3. In a similar vein as number two, is there any other potentially triggering contents that I should be aware of? It's horror so I expect there'd be some more, plus I did recall reading other things in the warning section, but for the life of me, I can't recall the specifics right now (likely had something to do with the fact that I'd just finished my late lunch). So...if there is anything that you think I should particularly be aware about concerning content warnings, I hope you could let me know. I'd very much appreciate it, since it would help me consider apping Phantom in the future or not. (I'd very likely bring a Tequila along too since we're A Set.)

Anyway, that is all, at least for now. I hope that my questions are understandable, even if somewhat messy. Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi friend!!

1) My old back would also go on a strike if this were required, no worries. Our monthly events (and our nebulous "sometimes" sub-events, if we're on a major plot point) are never required. You can flat-out just ignore what's happening if you don't jive, or say "I'm handwaving that this happened", or whatever you feel like! What I mean by plot-heavy is more that there is in general often a large background plot going on and sometimes several smaller plotlines that coincide into one Big Thing. I often call this game "player run" meaning that the mod team is here to set up and make events, but the players will determine the outcomes of them and whatever they want to happen with the overarching plotline. We give you the hints and the tools to do things, essentially. While I do maintain that no one has to participate in the overall plot (one of which right now involves trying to find a "cure" to the corruption/body horror mechanic), I will be completely transparent and say that players in the past who did not engage with any plotline material found it difficult to find their footing here. That said, we have monthly plotting posts that go over bullet points like so, so that everyone can keep up with things happening. Tl;dr: There is a big-ass plotline going on in the background at any one moment, players Should ideally know about it, but we won't force you to participate in anything.

2. The body horror for your character specifically is entirely optional! With the setting in general, it's just Going to happen unfortunately (we have several player characters who have been "corrupted" by the woods, which is about where 95% of this mechanic comes into play). There are event logs where some possible body horror is present, i.e. January's TDM has players freezing solid into statues which is a fairly light example, but this mechanic is skippable/optional. If there were ever an event that made a player uncomfortable or anything like that felt forced, the mod team would ask that you come to us and say "hey this don't vibe, what else can I do?" so we can help and be aware of the issue. I try to in general avoid forcing people into body horror or any content that would be unplayable for them, and we take player feedback very very seriously here.

3. There are a couple warnings that pop up! In general for the game, aside from body horror, they are: eye-related horror (coincides with body horror), death of children, death via burning, other types of horror-game typical death, monster imagery (usually in linked images), possible death of a loved one (depending on what your CR wants to do!), & animals in peril/danger. With the animal one, we tend to avoid actually hurting/killing any animals in any tags, but skeletal remains of animals can be found in several locations here. As a mod, I ask that all new players who join the game give us a list of CWs they want to avoid or be warned for, and that anyone currently in the game remembers to CW things appropriately and communicate — if someone says "can you CW that", there's an expectation that it gets CW'd. This might not need to be said because it should be an expectation everywhere, but I am a hardass about this so I thought I'd mention it.

In general our playerbase is extremely friendly and tight-knit, so if you did have anything that rubbed you the wrong way, any one of them likely can and will fix it immediately. We have a game discord for OOC communication which is optional to use, and the expectation there is that overarching plotting goes on the OOC Plotting comms and not on the game discord so that anyone who opts not to join/mutes it/whatever else can still be part of the community. And I think that about covers it?

I hope my wall of text is also understandable LOL, if you need any clarification or think of more questions I'm happy to answer!! Smooches Phantom and Tequila on the foreheads

fractales: (There's a lesson to live through)

POKEMON @ ESCORDVI

[personal profile] fractales 2024-02-11 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
[game]: [community profile] escordvi
[fandom]: Pokémon
[game's current cast]: Professor Turo(AI)
[who I play]: Turo
[wanted]: Would absolutely love Arven, Penny, Nemona or anyone else from Paldea really! I'd be happy with anyone either from ScarVi or other games and Pokémedia, for that matter.

[game info]: An old world filled with older legends and myths, so old that no one knows what is real or not anymore. But there is one myth, one tale that some may say was just a dream… but it is the one they must now all live in.

Ancient beasts and their people waged wars and ravaged the once bountiful lands until the ground split and the waters rushed in, flooding and drowning all who once ruled the now barren surface. All civilizations were lost beneath the unending tides until the angry waters calmed and became still. Only a small handful of land, people, and creatures were saved, protected by mythical leviathans in hopes to one day revive the world. But no one cared for such lofty goals, content to only continue their survival. They would live on their leviathans with only a few deciding to settle on the numerous islands scattered throughout the world, and as time went by two armada factions developed.
---
And so the people lived—until one day, someone or something found an ancient artifact that opened dimensional rifts to other worlds, forcibly bringing these outsiders to Escordvi to now live amongst its people. These rifts also brought in strange lands and stranger creatures, things that the native people find disruptive and wish to stop.

Of course, there are also those who wish to use this power for themselves.

Rumor has it that there is a special treasure map that could help guide them to the artifact, but the pieces have been scattered all over. Thus a new "hunt" is on to find that artifact, lost somewhere in the Endless Ocean.


Escordvi is a panfandom semi-private game that primarily uses invitations to join but with occasional public app cycles. It is a quest based exploration game with focus on finding and exploring new places and CR building. Despite the existence of factions, it is not a competitive factions game.

This month's TDM up and no invite is needed to post or tag around on said TDM that is, as usual, this month's game event. However, you can get an invite by directly asking for one from the mods if interested in reserving and apping come March!

AC requirement is five(5) comments each month.

DREAMWORKS' TROLLS @ LONGESTNIGHT

[personal profile] branchifer 2024-02-11 04:58 am (UTC)(link)
[game]: [community profile] longestnight
[fandom]: Dreamworks' Trolls
[game's current cast]: Just Branch
[who I play]: Branch
[wanted]: Poppy!
[game info]: Super long shot but why not.

[community profile] longestnight is an invite-only game based on Rise of the Guardians, a world where various myth figures like Santa and the Easter Bunny secretly defend children from the Bogeyman and other threats. After an otherdimensional being started invading and kidnapped most of the Guardians, the Belief of the kids has pulled the characters in from other universes and transformed them into mythical beings. Recruited as new Guardians, they have to try to stop the nightmare being called Kuk before he destroys all of existence. And also get used to the fact that in the game world, due to the Belief drawing in their stories from the worlds where they're real, they've been written about as fiction.

I'd love to play against a Poppy for both the cute ship stuff and for them having to adjust. The game world is good for some conflict without grimdarkening characters from lighter canons too much. Canonically, they're both dogged about wanting to protect people and this is a circumstance where the enemies match the level of intensity of their canon having like actual murdering cannibals but they can't change the minds of the bad guys with a song and dance number this time.

Inviting from emp is allowed but since it's an invite game I would wanna chat a little over PM first.

[game info]: Getting Started!

Victory Road is a panfandom community-based roleplay taking place in the world of Pokémon--specifically the Johto and Kanto regions. You don't have to be a PokeManiac to join the game-- it's perfectly acceptable to learn the ropes of Pokémon training right alongside your character! The game is full of folks both IC and OOC who will be happy to help.

"Welcome to the wonderful world of Pokémon!"

GRANBLUE FANTASY @ ESCORDVI

[personal profile] flamekthunder 2024-02-11 05:38 am (UTC)(link)
[game]: [community profile] escordvi
[fandom]: Granblue Fantasy
[game's current cast]: Eustace
[who I play]: Eustace
[wanted]: We have a 10 character cap, and my personal preference would any from the Society cast, but I'd love to see anyone!
[game info]: They may not be sailing the skies, but the seas are just as wide and vast in Escordvi, with the islands a mix of land masses and large leviathans that serve as giant city hubs. There are two "factions" called Armadas that everyone is put into.

Corsairs are more free spirited, and while most are like pirates, it's also where the adventurers and independent mercenaries tend to gather. (Eustace is Corsair.)

Paladins are a bit more law-abiding, but they are also into the arts and scholarly research.

The two have conflicts with one another, but they often work together and making cross-armada CR is easy!

The game itself focuses on exploration and character freedom to make their own adventures through the numerous quests available as well as the events that happen monthly. Players can also create their own quests and results of various happenings to help shape the world. They can also make their own crews to go off on larger group excursions. Although there's some backstory, there's no real overarching plot, so there's just a lot of freedom for players to do what's fun for them. Villains are also welcome to stir chaos, and because of the Corsair faction, it's practically a given that there will be "criminals" and "bad guys" around so they can just blend right in.

All of which is perfect for the Granblue characters 👀 So please check it out!

For more info, check out our Game Info. Although the game is invite only, you can directly request an invite from the mods. We also have a TDM and hey it features dragons! Anyone can tag the TDM even without an invite so you can test the waters first if you'd like. Applications open March 1st so anyone who may be thinking of Relink verse, it will be allowed!

[who I play]: Ranma!
[wanted]: I'd love to see anyone! Akane, Nabiki, Ryoga, Shampoo, Ukyo, Mousse, anyone from this crazy cast would be amazing to have aboard! Come spread the chaos that is Ranma 1/2 with me and wreak glorious havoc.
[game info]: Escordvi's a panfandom semi-private game where characters are whisked away from their home world and dropped into the eponymous world, focusing primarily on both quest-based exploration and CR building. Characters who arrive are split into two factions (Armadas): Paladins, who uphold law, morals and focus on the scholar aspects of the world, and Corsairs, more chaotic and most fitting in the pirate setting. Despite the existence of factions, there is no competitive nature as both factions can and usually do work together to complete tasks, allowing for cross-armada CR crafting. Players can explore new lands that shape the world, form their own crews, and all around freedom to let them do whatever they desire. Perfect for the Ranma 1/2 cast and the insanity they bring with them.

AC is five (5) comments a month, and while the game is invite only, requesting an invite from the mods is super easy. The TDM is up, and requires no invite to tag around and dip your toes in the water to test whether or not you want to jump in. Applications open March 1st, and anymore info about the game can be found here!

Characters are de-powered, with chances to gain powers within the game setting. There is no network. The game is small and slow-paced, with events and TDMs running on alternating months.

Characters find themselves transported from their home worlds and stranded in a wild, empty world of eternal winter thanks to strange geological/geomagnetic shifts which has effected nature and man alike. There's no escape. Only the Auroras can signal the comings and goings of this place, and they may be both a blessing and a curse to you. Create groups for survival, scavenge for supplies, learn the harsh ways of mother nature (now warped by the Aurora's power) and survive.

Here is the current TDM! There's an app round this month, with Reserves 15th - 19th and Apps 20th - 29th.

BLAZBLUE @ EXPIATION

[personal profile] rebellions 2024-02-11 06:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[game]: Expiation | [community profile] expiationlogs | full navigation & info/faq
[fandom]: BlazBlue
[game's current cast]: Ragna the Bloodedge
[who I play]: good ol' Rags here
[wanted]: ANYONE! I know it's a long shot, but I would absolutely love any characters here; special mention goes to Ragna's siblings (obviously) and either of the snakes (because I live to make Ragna suffer), but everyone's welcome. I will happily bribe you with icons if needed!
[game info]:

"Welcome to Expiation, an adventure game with science fiction, fantasy, and subtle horror elements, that explore the concepts of crime versus innocence, definition of atonement, and reflection of self. Events occur bimonthly and it is up to the new residents of this world to uncover the truth of their circumstances, find a means to survive, and return to their original worlds, if they so choose to."

Characters arrive in Expiation accused of a crime (either of the player's choosing or assigned by the mods) and are told to await their sentencing without further explanation. They can explore the world to discover its past and secrets, as well as influence the way it develops onwards, while trying to figure out the reason behind their arrival there.

Applications are bi-monthly and will open on Thursday, February 22nd while the reserves will open on Monday, February 19th; the new TDM will go live on Monday, February 12th! There's a player cap that is currently sitting at 42/70. The AC requirements are 15 comments a month across 2-3 threads.

STAR WARS @ FOLKMORE

[personal profile] democratically 2024-02-11 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
[game]: [community profile] folkmore
[fandom]: Star Wars
[game's current cast]: Ahsoka Tano, Bo-Katan Kryze (crau), Cal Kestis, Cipher Nine (crau), Cobb Vanth, Darth Imperius, Darth Maul (crau), Din Djarin, Ezra Bridger (crau), Leia Organa, Merrin, Obi-Wan Kenobi (crau), Padmé Amidala, Poe Dameron, Rey (crau)
[who I play]: Padmé Amidala
[wanted]: Sequel, Original, Prequels, tv shows - bring them all!
[game info]: Current tdm (overflow) is here but the new one should go up tomorrow or the next day.

From the Nagivation Page:
Folkmore is a panfandom multi-genre private role play game. The Fox, Thirteen, invites characters to a pocket realm aka Folkmore. She challenges them via monthly trials (game events) to develop their potential—for good, for bad, or for a little bit of both. These physical, mental, and/or emotional trials span genres—fantasy to horror, survival to romance, slice of life to anything else—with an emphasis on interpersonal relationships.

AC is checking in and letting the mods know what your character was up to, with threads used for spoons to get bonus stuff. As you can see, you can be original or even crau if you want to bring your character in with memories of a different game. No cast cap, but you will need an invite (which can be arranged if you are interested)! Has mingle logs and event logs.

Wow, that's quite a cast! 👀 If I may, what's the pace like in this game? I'm interested in throwing Boba here on the TDM and seeing where things go, but I'm not the fastest tagger in the world, so slow-to-medium pace would be my ideal.

There are definitely some fast taggers in the game, but everyone I know is very chill and flexible, and most are willing to back tag for quite a while. The players actually voted a few months ago to move from big events and TDMs every month, to events and TDM being alternating months, to give time for everyone time to tag in and play stuff out.

Does that help?

Alan Wake II/Remedy Connected Universe on IJ

[personal profile] flashlightandgun 2024-02-11 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
I know this is the longest of long shots, but I'm trying it anyway: I play Dr. Casper Darling in a couple of places on IJ and am hoping to find castmates for him.

I can't promise anything, but I wouldn't mind taking a peek at some of the games on IJ. Are they cross-canon? Or AW-only canon? I played back on IJ years ago, but it seemed like it mostly was original characters in overarching but set-endgame plots, if that makes sense!

KAMEN RIDER @ BEAUTIFUL DREAMER

[personal profile] i_peace 2024-02-12 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
[game]: beautiful dreamer 🌸 [community profile] yumemigaoka | full navigation
[fandom]:Kamen Rider
[game's current cast]: Sakurai Keiwa/Kamen Rider Tycoon
[who I play]: Keiwa!
[wanted]: Anyone! It doesn't even have to be Geats characters. I say, staring longingly into the distance
[game info]:
Beautiful Dreamer is an AU game based on the magical girl genre, with an original setting, story and magic system. Characters are AU'd into the world of BD and become Dreamers, magical warriors who are tasked with keeping the dreaming and waking worlds safe from that which would threaten it.

BD is a slow to medium paced game. A/C is ten comments across two threads but the A/C is done automatically, no check-in or self-reporting required.

We have a large player focused event happening next month! Think of them as being the dungeons in Persona games that players can sign up to create. But outside of those, there are regular instances of in-character exploration/combat that's available to the players. These have the effect of both expanding explorable areas in game and possibly stumbling across metaplot relevant events. Don't want to be a mahou in pretty outfits? You're free to play mundane characters too! There's usually something for everyone to do, both in and out of the Dream Sphere.

Apps open the last week of the month, this month's TDM should be up soon (keep your eyes peeled?) and the AU plotting post is live.

PERSONA 4 @ EXPIATION

[personal profile] izanagis 2024-02-12 02:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[game]: [community profile] expiationnet
[fandom]: Persona 4
[game's current cast]: Yu and Yosuke!
[who I play]: Yu
[wanted]: honestly I would love to play with anyone and everyone. Please bring the rest of the Investigation Team, someone must have the braincell (it's not either of these two). I'd love to play with a Dojima too. Social links? Adachi? Absolutely anyone, really (listen I'd mention Nanako too but she's too young and has never done anything wrong in her life, so!!)

[game info]: Expiation is a fantasy/sci-fi/exploration game where each character is charged with a crime (some true, some false -- the charge and its accuracy are up to you!) and due to some sentencing mechanics in the game, they're forced to face those charges whether they did the crime or not. It's a game where characters can really make an impact on the setting and the story. I'd put it at medium for size and pacing, with an AC requirement of 15 comments over 2-3 threads.

New TDM just went up and apps open toward the end of the month!

Please join us!! I'm happy to answer any questions, either here or by PM.

DUNGEONS & DRAGONS (or connected media) @ PUMPKIN HOLLOW

[game]: [personal profile] pumpkinhollow
[fandom]: Dungeons & Dragons, or any related media like Baldur's Gate or Actual Play podcasts
[game's current cast]: Cerrit Agrupnin from Exandria Unlimited: Calamity and Mairi Miann from Dice Shame
[who I play]: Mairi
[wanted]: As much as I personally would love to see other Dice Shame players, I doubt I'm gonna find anyone else wanting to play from such a small-fry canon, but we'd love to see anyone from the Forgotten Realms! Bring your OCs, your Adventure Zones, your Critical Roles!
[game info]: Pumpkin Hollow is a horror-comedy set in what is effectively a high fantasy tabletop setting with a Victorian Gothic spin. It's modeled after stuff like Fallen London. Features an expansive meta plot mystery with HUGE potential for player involvement in resolving it, spookies, laughs, and more! Fast paced and exciting but with a very forgiving AC.

PERSONA @ KENOS

[game]: Kenos [community profile] kenoscomm | Navigation
[fandom]: Persona
[game's current cast]: Ann Takamaki, Goro Akechi
[who I play]: Akechi
[wanted]: I'm especially biased for fellow Persona 5 characters (Joker, Morgana, Haru), but any other Personas would be very welcome!
[game info]:
Kenos is a panfandom, faction-based game incorporating themes of corruption, redemption, bonds, and self-actualization. Whether characters came from their homes or somewhere else, characters now find themselves in a strange sea of stars littered with floating islands. Kenos is one of the last vestiges of a dying universe, and whether through purpose or simply chance, your character’s soul has been plucked from a crumbling world and brought here.

We have a monthly AC of 10 comments across two threads, with rewards for bonus AC. There's currently a 33/45 player cap, and franchises are further capped at 5 characters. Our January TDM is still going strong and apps/reserves are always open.

If you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment or PM this account!
