August EMP Meme

[enablemeplz]

ENABLEMEPLZ meme goes up on the Second Saturday of every month FOR GAME ADS: ➤ Put an ad up with the characters / crew / pairings / kink 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 fonts and other html that make ads super long, 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 canon 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. ➤ There is a "Pairings You Want to Play" section, where you can ask for castmates or crosscanon you'd like to ship with. Please format this with "[YOUR CANON] seeking [CASTMATE/OTHER CANON (if crosscanon)/SEE DESCRIPTION (if a general character type)]. For the actual text of the ad you must use the "Pairings You Want to Play" form provided at the bottom of this post so that these ads don't get huge. Alongside castmates and crosscanon, you can choose to ask for OCs or general character types as well. Try not to get too wordy and please don't outline entire scenarios. ➤ 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. ➤ The meme is for fiction-based RP only (with the only exception being involvement of fictionalized historical figures or historical settings.) Celeb or RPF RP advertising, whether for games or players, is not allowed. MOD CONTACT: If there's trouble, tell me HERE, please! RESOURCES: enablemeplz - The plurk for Enable Me Plz.

NORAGAMI @ SYNFLUX

[intertwinedfates]

[game]: synflux
[fandom]: Noragami (manga)
[game's current cast]: Yato, Hiyori
[who I play]: Yato here!
[wanted]: Anybody would be amazing, but especially Yukine!
[game info]:

Synflux is a cyberpunk, mission-based survival game inspired by Evangelion, Ghost in the Shell, Akira and others set in an alternate Earth in the year 2277. Characters are organized into teams based on their personality and skill and brought by force to give the humanity in this world one last chance. Characters will be sent on missions to fight the very things that has put this world in shambles: ruthless monsters from another world. Zip up your suits, Outsiders, it's gonna be a bloody ride.

In other words, Synflux is a panfandom game that alternates its focus between missions and downtime monthly, allowing for character-building moments as well as serious, world-changing battles. New abilities and gear can be earned through participation, allowing even non-powered characters to fight on even footing. Everyone is welcoming and a delight to play against!

The game has a 60 player cap and is currently at 52.

The next TDM will post on the 1st of September and apps are open until midnight of the 10th GMT! Previous TDMs can be found here if you want to get an idea of what they're like!

ahri (league/kda) / any of the huntrix girls from k-pop demon hunters

[raisedbyfoxes]

fictional k-pop girlband brainrot has me

So, for the uninitiated, Ahri is a character from League of Legends. A nine-tailed gumiho, she has a hunger for eating people's souls and memories, but keeps it under wraps as best she can. She also has a canon AU where she's the co-leader of a k-pop band, K/DA, witnessed best in music video form here.

Basically I want to smash K/DA and HUNTR/X together. Somehow Ahri's demon self didn't get sucked down to the underworld even after the honmoon was sealed, or something set before that? Ahri taking Jinu's place in the story, helping Rumi come to terms with her half-demon self? I'm wide open for ideas, and happy to brainstorm :D

PAIRINGS YOU WANT TO PLAY

[enablemeplz]

Please see the instructions on this section in the post above.

fire emblem (tellius), sephiran/zelgius

[alonedite]

[Where]: Memes and PSLs
[who I play]: Zelgius | Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance/Radiant Dawn
[wanted]: Sephiran | Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance/Radiant Dawn
[why]: I'm super intrigued by their dynamic and Zelgius' suicidal loyalty and how he willingly takes part in a plan that will get both of them killed if it succeeds. Ugh, I just love them so much. There's so much to explore such as their pregame dynamic (like, they knew each other for a minimum of 20 years. Lots of room for missing scenes!) or a canon divergence where neither of them died.
[game/psl info]: I can be kinda slow and prefer to write with people who are chill with that and don't mind backtagging for a long time. Also, I prefer to start out with a shorter one-off thread to gauge our compatibility before diving into a meaty and elaborate slowburn.

Feel free to hit me up directly here or send me a PM if you're interested!

Bobby | KPop Demon Hunters

[ironicjumpcut]

[character offered]: Bobby
[fandom]: KPop Demon Hunters
[rp you're offering for / rp type you'd wanna play in]:

• Always open to things with the girls. Would love to play out Bobby finally learning about the demon hunting and figuring out what comes after that. Maybe he gets kidnapped by demons for real this time idk.
• On god I gotta get this man some good dick (or yknow evil demon dick). He deserves to get fucked nasty style. Open to canonmates or cross-canon.
• Related to the previous, if you've got a morally dubious man you'd like to AU into KPDH as a demon trying to get to HUNTR\X through Bobby... hmu. Let's plot something. Bobby can try to redeem him.
• Tentatively putting a feeler out there for games. Slower pace with check-in AC highly preferred. Not interested in horror/survival games for him, would prefer the focus to be on character relationships. Open to sex games

[preferences]: I play Bobby as gay, so m/m for anything romantic or sexual, but obviously his platonic relationships are very important to him. General preferences and kinklist here.

[denyingit]

Hi it's me again, I see that feeler for games and I'm curious, so gotta ask-- how would you feel about Bobby getting magic / magical powers?

[deathoftheauthor]

offering: louis de pointe du lac
canon: the vampire chronicles (original flavor)

looking for: open to anything! i like a healthy dose of slice of life regardless of genre, but anything with events that can actually motivate a depressed introvert a little would be lovely. i'm just dipping my toes back into rp, so a slow/medium pace would be ideal!

power nerfing is fine, though i'd like to avoid having him lose his vampire powers completely. he needs to feel sorry for himself! CRAU allowed is also a bonus — there is a chance he comes with a lestat in tow — but it's not a deal breaker!

[heyunderoos]

If you're interested in trying out an slow-medium paced horror game, I would recommend labofnaturerp. Characters are taken from their world and put into an experimental facility to be tormented for some greater good. Characters are meant to push back against their captors to uncover more about the world/setting whilst they bond with their fellow captives. Or in some cases, have petty in-fighting with their fellow captives. There is plenty of down time alongside the experiments.

The game itself is is invite only, but we're always open to people asking for invites. CRAU is allowed. Louis wouldn't be humanized, but would lose his powers outside of specific events. He would remain a vampire, just loses his ability to drink blood and be dropped to a baseline human diet.

Check out our current TDM here to see if the game works for you!

[serperior]

characters
Tsuchigomori | Toilet Bound Hanako-kun
Sleeping Beauty | Sinoalice
Horropedia | Reverse: 1999
Hans | Deemo
Azul Ashengrotto | Twisted Wonderland
or one of these other ones? depends on how strong my voice is for them

preferences
DW-based games only
medium pace/backtag friendly
no memloss/au for now
Okay with horror/monster transformation, smut focus (for characters that are appropriate for such games ofc), sol, etc. I'm not that picky on genre atm
Okay with power nerfing if there is a chance for them to be reacquired at a later date/from events
castmates are not strictly required but are certainly encouraging to have
I can be open to memes/psls if desired, whether they be gen or shippy (the latter may depend on the ship in question but we'll see)
I'm already in escordvi!

[maximumbonds]

Characters:
Togo Asagaki | Red Ranger Becomes An Adventurer In Another World
Bennett | Genshin Impact

Preferences:
DW-based only
Medium-paced and backtag friendly
No memloss/AU
Not really interested in transformation-based games (nothing against them, I just struggle with engaging with that kind of mechanic)
No major power nerfs (i don't mind some reduction/the ability to regain them, just not taking it away entirely)
Castmates nice but definitely not required
Also open to museboxing if you want to play one-on-one

[megatheorem]

offering
constantin d'orsay | greedfall
palamedes sextus | locked tomb*
junpei tenmyouji | zero escape (ztd canonpoint)
also broadly: some ocs, all original universe sci-fi/fantasy flavor, if a game is oc friendly i'd love 2 know
*i already have pal in a game so this is a Strong Maybe

preferences
dw only
not interested in memloss/AU
castmates not required
plot cherished
i'm also open to psls

[itsalwaysthere]

With what I know about Zero Escape (being minimal stuff via a video essay I watched a while back), I feel like labofnaturerp could work for Junpei. The game itself is a slow-medium paced invite only horror game. A throw back to Luceti, a_fac, and other games in similar torture the blorbo style. Characters are taken from their worlds and put into an experimental facility by scientists for some alleged greater good. Be that greater good via characters suffering through various horrors/experiments. Characters are encouraged to prod at the setting and build CR with one another. Trauma bond with your roommate(s) or your fellow captive! Plot an escape! Horde food bars! Roll a dice to see if you get a nat 20 to outwit an NPC!

AC is check in, the game is very backtag friendly and shenanigans are encouraged!

Our current TDM went up this morning, and our invitations opened from August 10th through September 1st! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to hit me up.

[hundredeyesoni]

Offering: Akira Takahashi | A Terrified Teacher at Ghoul School

Preferences:
✅ Dreamwidth
✅ Mobile-friendly layout
✅ Any genre, but horror's a favourite
✅ Sex games are great too
❌ No forced transformations or visible body modifications
❌ No full power-loss (nerfing is fine)

Since I'm looking for a second game, an AC around 15 or less would be preferred, but it's not a dealbreaker if the setting is right!

[rebellions]

characters offered:

Ragna the Bloodedge » BlazBlue » rebellions
Noel Vermillion » BlazBlue » bulletic
Mitama Yakumo » Magia Record: Puella Magi Madoka Magica Side Story » coordinatroll
Yoshitsugu Ōtani » Sengoku BASARA » suffergazing

preferences:

✓ dw only;
✓ slow or medium paced (i.e. no murdergame level pacing)
✓ backtag friendly;

• limited or no power loss preferred;
• some overarching plot would be great, though plot + sol elements is okay too;

✗ smut games;

[traceofeffort]

Oh man, Mitama. I don't know if my game, Beautiful Dreamer (yumemigaoka) really suits your preferences (full AU, so inherently full power loss but you'd get a new set of powers; a setting where magic exists in a dream world adjacent to the real world and Dreamers can shift between the two and are known in the open, with an overarching plot that's riiight about halfway through and coming off a break before we go into Plot Stuff in a month or two here; slow pace, SoL when plot isn't coming calling) but if nothing else I had to appreciate someone playing from MagiReco.

[ironlotus]

[character(s) offered]
- Xiao (Library of Ruina)
- Don Quixote (Limbus Company)
- Hata no Kokoro (Touhou Project)

[tentative offering(s)]
- Ethel (Xenoblade Chronicles 3)
- Reimu Hakurei (Touhou Project)

[preferences]
- slow/medium pacing
- mission based would be ideal but im open to other suggestions
- i'd love castmates if possible! but im used to not finding many so they are not a hard requirement
- no au/memloss games
- no full power loss (partial power loss/nerfing is fine)
- sex friendly games are fine but i am not interested in a smut focused game

[side notes]
it's been a hot minute since ive been in a game and im super antsy to get back into the swing of things! i do apologize in advance if my dw etiquette isnt super good im trying my best to relearn everything

[potentialman]

offering:
Megumi Fushiguro (Jujutsu Kaisen)

preferences:
So I already have Megumi circa Shibuya at my current game, but I'd like to give end of series a shot too. To that end, I'd love to find somewhere chill. Size of game is less the concern than the pace.

Don't mind flying solo, but if there are JJK my main concern would be whether they're cool with post-series canonmates and the possible drama bombshells that entails.

Keeping powers to some degree is a huge, huge bonus; it's not my #1 criteria, but I do love me a good training arc and Gege kind of shorted me there. So the potential to have Megumi mess around, work on taming the shikigami he didn't use yet, try and come up with new combos a la Bottomless Well or Agito (okay, less extra than Agito), etc would be a tremendous draw.

I'm not in a big hurry about this, though, so I'm quite happy to hear about games in the works or that won't have app rounds for a bit, if they'd be a good fit!

[galacticfairy]

[character offered]: Sheryl Nome
[fandom]: Macross Frontier
[rp you're offering]: Britney Spears does Starship Troopers
[preferences]:
- DWRP, medium speed.
- Plot is great. Missions/fights are great if there's room for support-type characters.
- Slight preference for sci-fi, but not ruling anything else out.
- Fine with memory loss (so long as there's a memory regain function) and power loss.
- No pure SOL, no sex-mandatory, no forced-AU. Probably no monster transformation games unless there's a wing- or bug-adjacent option.
- Can play TV canon or movie canon.

[endcaller]

[character offered]:
Fandaniel | Final Fantasy XIV
Vholran Igniseri | Tales of Arise
Sephiroth | Final Fantasy VII
Xan | Baldur’s Gate
Yuber | Suikoden

I also have other characters I'd consider for the right sort of game. My Suikodens are always ready to go because that's my brand but they do best in games that feature a war or major faction conflict.

[rp you're offering for / rp type you'd wanna play in]: Game. DW only. Preferably a game where villains can scheme and engage with the setting. Building up to big dumb player plots and losing is honestly my jam. I would fully expect that to be a slow burn, though.

I also tend to prefer more intense settings that can challenge characters vs lighter, more comedic games but a mix is fine.

For Sephiroth in particular I guess it's worth mentioning I play him from the original game which means he still has his memories and isn't obsessed with Cloud. I'd still play with a Cloud! But maybe he'd be a good matchup for a Cloud who wants the tension of a Sephiroth but would also like to be left alone sometimes.

[preferences]:

✔ medium or fast paced
✔ back-tag friendly
✔ plot focused
✔ horror
✔ exploration
✔ fantasy
✔ urban fantasy

→ would prefer no power nerfing but I can go with nerfed powers if a game has most other things.

✘ pure slice-of-life
✘ memory loss
✘ forced permanent transformation mechanics
✘ smut games
✘ AU

[ornithologist]

Heyyyy it's Liv, long time no see! Just thought I'd mention that I've really been enjoying etraya and I think it'd be a great fit for a villain, and for your proactive play style. Players are able to have a lot of influence on how missions fall out.

[catsgothistongue]

[character offered]:
Ranma Saotome | Ranma ½
Gine | Dragon Ball
Shantae | <--
Ben Paul | Telltale's The Walking Dead
Sir Lancelot | Sonic and the Black Knight

[preferences]:
✓ PSLs, memes, DW games are all good.
✓ Decent pace with easy AC
✓ Casual, plot-focused, I'm fine with either or.
✓ Sex/smut games/memes/PSLs are fine by me, though I don't write smut that often.
✓ I'm fine with power nerfing/loss, though I do like games that let some powers be kept.
✓ Murdergames are great
✓ Test Drives
= Castmates loved but not required.
