August EMP Meme
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!

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.

— i'm canonblind to twd but i had a zombie apoc mcu au where the outbreak was caused by a knockoff supersoldier serum, so maybe something along that line could work for steph. OR since you mentioned medical aus for dennis (i'm also canonblind), when she's not cap i have her as a ww2 field nurse soooo
— for rhae or arya, this guy i typically au as either one of the old gods or one of the seven (the stranger), and he spends his time among mortals masquerading as a warrior. the two factions are at war and the houses of westeros are their pawns, to no one's surprise lol
no subject
i'm immediately drawn to the idea of a WWII au, i'm honestly canonblind to 99% of the mcu and steve altogether, but dennis is a med student in an ER so he would translate really well to a line like that - the only draw back is that it would definitely be slower moving as research would slow me down, it's an executive problem of mine despite how i love historical settings.
I ALSO LOVE the idea of arya having a jaqen-like relationship with the actual stranger, this is such a fun idea and would touch on a lot of my favorite parts of her character, so i'd love to hear more about how your character would guide a storyline like that/where we could get them started? if it's based in an au of her revenge plot, would he be for or against it, etc.? my ideas are going a mile a minute!

as for hodr: so in his canon he's one of the sons of odin (of norse myth fame) but he ended up with ice magic instead of their family's typical warrior frame and bloodlust, which made him an outcast. he later had a romance with the queen of the frost giants, their family's enemies, and eventually completely defected to their side. war ensued, they lost, odin blinded him in punishment and kept him on house arrest, while his wife/lover was exiled to the underworld. the pair of them can be very conveniently au'd into asoiaf as the night king and the corpse queen, and the long night being that big war between the gods in which the giants lost and odin's family went on to become the seven.
with that, hodr would 100% support house stark (and arya's revenge quest) because of where his loyalties truly lie; he's only part of the seven as his father's actual heir (he accidentally killed his older twin brother, oops) and he only pretends to play along. he would also be trying to get back to the north and beyond the wall to rally his allies and march south to destroy the seven. heck instead of the underworld his ancient wife/lover could be trapped in the wall, we know it's supposedly reinforced with magic, and maybe that's why the crown, influenced by the seven, continues to fund the night's watch...
edit: i almost forgot! reincarnation is a thing in hodr's canon so we can use that too if you want. also i don't mind slow, i'm really slow these days anyway because of the baby lol

if you're up for it, we could smash zombie canons together for daryl and leon here. not sure how familiar you are with the resident evil video games, but i'm happy to explain anything as needed. super flexible as far as how long it's been going on/how deep into it they are. but i think we could definitely work in slowburn/complex + angst. and also get pretty dark. so some possible ideas:
- something towards the start of an outbreak. cop!leon and daryl were both in the city where the outbreak started, and they have to work together to get out of the city. plenty of awfulness we could put them through. plenty of opportunities for potential personality clashes since cop Leon is very bright-eyed, see the good in everyone type. then things could go from there after they get out into whatever we feel like.
- leon could at some point end up with rick's group, and that's how him and daryl meet. we could send them off to do various things together, get into plenty of shit. something in the vein of what we're working with in the meme thread!
- stealing a page out of resevil 4 for something darker and questionable depending how you feel about cults. so if it's your jam: daryl could be kidnapped by some sort of cult that worships some weird parasite that turns people into zombie types that can be controlled (resevil flavor) or the cult worships something they believe caused the outbreak if we wanna lean into it taking place during a zombie apocalypse. leon saves him or is also captured. and they gotta figure things out and rely on each other to survive.
- generic and cliche these two are stranded somewhere because weather, zombies, dangerous group, some combination of the above, and they have to deal with the forced proximity and having to depend on each other. could be their first time meeting or they've known each other to some degree.
nothing super exciting but! potential options. happy to spitball ideas or smash things together if anything might be of interest. just lemme know c:
