September EMP Meme

ENABLEMEPLZ

meme goes up on the last 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.

ABSOLUTELY NO obnoxious coding (no font size > size 4 or 3 "big" tags, no banners, no blinking text, no obnoxious tables, no sparklies, no 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 frozen 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.

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

I actually played in cnc back in the days before it became mom! What is different from cnc with mom? (If you know that is- if not that's ok just curious!) CNC was my last rpg game before I took a billion year old hiatus so I'm a bit behind the times haha.

The workshop is for potential players, yes! It's there to help you build some pre-existing CR and figure out where they are before "joining" officially. So if your character is in school you can find other classmates, or if you want an AU family you can arrange that. Things like that.

AC sounds more complicated from the outside I think? It's 2 proofs of at least 10 comments, over no more than 4 threads. Which feels standard, nowadays I think? It also requires 1 Memory Regain (which is something you get just by threading usually)

The point system is for bonus points. Every tag you do in excess of the 20 comment proofs counts for bonus points towards regaining canon abilities/canon items. A network tag is 1 point, an action tag is 2 points.

The reason people do a tag freeze is once you submit AC, any more tags are going to throw off your point totals and you'll 1) miss points you could have earned and 2) the mods will ask you to revise your totals and that's more work for them and you.

Does that break it down for you?

dc comics, critical role, crossovers

[personal profile] chanterie 2017-10-01 03:20 pm (UTC)(link)
offering:
⇢ kara zor-el ( dc comics )
⇢ vax'ildan ( critical role )
⇢ pike trickfoot ( critical role )
⇢ scanlan shorthalt ( critical role )
⇢ ... lbr, possibly others from critrole. i'm resisting the urge to make accounts for like. everyone from vox machina.
seeking:
FOR KARA ⇢ pre-nu!52 castmates to play against! dctv people to play against! also i would love to throw her into the mcu or marvel comics universe. i feel like she and steve could have some real interesting cr. i'd also be open to other crossover stuff if anyone has ideas!

FOR THE CRITROLES ⇢ anything, tbh. the campaign coming to an end has me wanting to do all the things. i'm especially interested in twin times, vax/kiki and vax/gilmore threads, and just... everything else under the sun?? though vax and pike are my mains (and i have acquired a meat man account) i could easily be convinced to pick up percy, probably gilmore, and maybe the raven queen. (look i really love the rq she is fascinating.)
feel free to comment here, pm me, or hit me up on plurk ([plurk.com profile] chanterie) or discord (lyn#3878) if you're interested!!

Ah that's cool! I didn't realize it could work like that. *-* Now I don't know who I want to test the waters with. Probably Tsuyu or Tetsutetsu. Hagakure would be cool but her invisibility really forces me to get extra creative with her AU background since they don't have their powers at the start?

What kind of AU background do you have for Momo if you don't mind me asking? :o curious to see what the bnha people came up with.

Also yes, that clears up things so much! Thank you, thank you <3 I haven't been in a game or on the rp scene in what seems like millions of years so I'm a bit behind the times in terms of how AC and the like has changed with the community so I'm not really sure what is and isn't standard. This makes the AC at recolle seem less scary now haha.
creatability: Mine (Affable)

[personal profile] creatability 2017-10-01 03:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes that's right, no powers to start out with! Or body changes, you have to get those back. Hagakure would need to have a face for a bit :P

My background for Momo is that she was raised in America to immigrant parents. Because the game is set in America. She's named Mary, rather than Momo, to Americanize her. Family is well off, and she just moved to Recolle City to stay with her uncle (Matt Murdock/Daredevil) while her mom and dad do an extended business trip into Asia. She's not as well off as canon because we can't all be uber-rich! But still upper-middle class. She's 17 *now* since her birthday was recently and mostly is just integrating into being a transfer student in high school. My app is in my journal, I'm just on my phone so I can't link it atm.

It doesn't have to be some big crazy backstory, since characters are leading a completely normal life until the game starts!

You can say "castmates not necessarily needed" but I would in fact murder for you if you brought Mukuro over to The Far Shore. It looks like one of my friends has already given you the rundown on the game itself but while trying to tempt you for the BNHA cast. Ignore him. I will fight him in a cage match for this.

(ok, I tease. Anyone you bring will be welcome. But I am just highly biased as to who, and I know our Ken Joshima is too.)

To answer your question of "what goals are there"... There are a few things you can do! Both gods and shinki can make moves to basically become the strongest forms they have- a "God of Fortune" or a "Hafuri vessel" respectively. This basically means gods have hit the big time, and that Shinki have shown themselves to have the ultimate devotion for their gods. These both come with their own respective perks, although both get a new power as part of the deal.

There is also an overarching plot regarding people pulling dangerous things like spreading around cursed charms, reanimating the dead to make violent zombies, and apparently summoning a demon at some point. Some think it might be the same person/group who wants to overthrow the Heavens (aka the NPC Japanese gods who are technically responsible for watching over all these strange interlopers).

Player plots are also highly encouraged! Someone who's trying to figure out why gods and shinki disappear (OOCly drop) once messed up and temporarily turned everyone into children or old people. Another character was also secretly a murder (OOCly offering a different out for people who were dropping) and a small group of characters had to catch him. So all sorts of things are welcome!

[personal profile] redotiertwo 2017-10-01 03:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Basically the overall goal of the game is to find out why gods and shinki are coming to the world at all, but there's an underlying plot of a revolution against the current leadership of the Heavens - there have both been escalating attacks against Amaterasu, the god in charge, culminating in the burning down of her temple, and other large-scale misfortunes against the human population of the world which haven't been tracked down to a source yet (for example, the last event involved a shopping complex being cursed with bad luck and ultimately burning down, and there was a company involved also connected to another curse incident from one of the first events in the game). There's a mission and prayer system through which characters can get various kinds of plot hints to potentially follow this stuff up, and others resurface in later plots.

In general, the goal of being an incarnated god or a shinki serving them is to do right by your followers - as mentioned, there's a prayer system that allows characters to do jobs for their followers in return for rewards. There's also the element of protecting said followers from ayakashi (demons which need to be defeated by a god and shinki working together), and also the fact that more followers = more power in the setting. There are certain characters aiming for high positions in the Heavens through gaining followers to get more contact with the older gods and prompt more change for the better in the setting, and others who are doing it for their own ends.

wait, no. a heist in the wild west with billy and marie antoinette, y/n/why? she'd borrow mozart's mask and everything. they're stealing from the bad guys so it's okay.

I used to play in CnC too for a bit! (though with different characters; if we overlapped at all I played Calendar Man & a bunch of others)

I'd say it's similar but the major differences are the setting, which isn't I Can't Believe It's Not New York, it's split into four different cities along the East Coast with teleporters for ease, and it has a vague 50s aesthetic with hover cars and junk, the tone is a bit less chaotic and characters are a bit more restricted - there's a whole thing about registered vs unregistered imPorts. There's also a big shared log every month (the swear-ins for registering) that makes sure there's always a way to get new cr.

Also I'm not 100% sure how awk it is to say this but MoM's got a lot less drama on the ooc front too, if that matters at all. It's pretty chill!

OH MAN OH MAN people that play from Dollhouse are rare, rare treasures.

While I looove the sound of this premise, I unfortunately don't see Bennett as being a good fit for it. She's such a fussy, anti-social creature! My other three would likely fit in just fine, though! Cause really, no AC sounds like music to my ears. Pretendy fun times are so much less fun when you're worrying about that. I will definitely consider Boomtown! Thanks for the rec!

Sounds good to me!

Hmm... as far as ideas go—did you want to try something set in canon or something AU?

[personal profile] handloader 2017-10-01 05:14 pm (UTC)(link)
but less moral characters being paired with billy would be fun, haha.

&that sounds good! granted i feel like this would only be truly acceptable for me if it went to hell in a hand-basket. you know, like all things in fate/.

PARDON MY ONE ICON, i'm gonna be driving most of today, so I'll really get set up tomorrow... But I'm open to either? Maybe lets start with canon now, like a post game thing, and then we can graduate to AU? Since this is essentially me voice testing!

Heck yeah, Ciri! \o/ Always happy to see Witcher characters around. I currently play Lambert (prior to most of W3's plot events) over at [community profile] lostcarnival -- the premise of the game is characters are pulled in to become workers at a traveling fae carnival, which usually visits strange, fantastic locations. The game runs on a 2 OOC:1 IC day schedule, and while some pivotal events like NPC interactions or plot resolutions can go pretty quick, it's a pretty backtag-friendly game.

Even if it doesn't catch your fancy, you're more than welcome to drop in on our fourth wall event in October, and I hope to see you there! More information on that is on our current test drive.

I have a few characters I'd be keen on playing, but I've been out of the RP scene for over a year due to a really busy IRL. (That being said, I've been continuing to keep an eye on games that have sprouted up to see if there's anything that catches my interest.)

Characters I'm considering are:
• Booster Gold - DCUO
• Caim - Drakengard
• Fran - FFXII
• Olivia - Fire Emblem: Awakening
• Ashelin Praxis - Jak 2
• Midna - Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
• Flynn Rider - Tangled
• Cersei Lannister - ASOIF (Telly or Book Version)

Game preferences:
• Medium-paced would be good
• Backtag friendly and community based
• Memory loss games are not usually my bang, but I could be persuaded, so I won't rule them out.
• Canonmates are a +, but absolutely not required.
• Not keen on AU-type games (of the variety that involve rewriting a character history to fit the setting)
• SoL / jam-jar / sci-fi / fantasy / horror / grimdark / dark / mature - are all okay

Other stuff:
I'm still thinking about whether I want to put up a comment in the PSL section, but for what it's worth, I'd be pretty keen on PSL things as well.

It's deffo jamjar; you basically get kidnapped onto this fleet of spaceships that goes around to different planets and systems. there's periods of just the ships for downtime and then there are systems which usually have some plot and some good opportunities for doing your own stuff. player plots are encouraged, i've done one myself

the main plot is there's this bad company called atroma that brought you there, supposedly it's for reality tv, you're being monitored all the time, etc etc, but a lot of the plot involves people trying to figure out why they're being brought to the places they are. there's some real exciting stuff, too! most recent event was where they moored at this planet that had a meteor incoming, and had to help organize a continental evacuation, it was p cool
