OOC Intros


Welcome, new players and old players with new characters! This is the OOC Introduction post, made specially as a gathering place to meet and greet and get to know each other and our characters! Please take a moment to introduce yourself. You may do it any way you like or, if you're a fan of structure, please feel free to use this handy dandy copy-paste:

<b>Player Name:</b> Whatever you want us to call you. <b>Contact:</b> Plurk, Discord, whatever it is you use. Don't forget to mention if it's OK for people to add you! <b>Pronouns:</b> Whatever they are, please include them so everyone can be respectful of who you are. <b>Tell us about yourself:</b> Hobbies, favorite times to tag, pets, quirks, favorite times/styles to tag, anything you'd like us to know. <b>Character Name & Journal:</b> Character name and journal here! <b>Tell us about them:</b> Give us a quick little introduction of your character, no more than a paragraph, to let us know a little about them. This will give people an idea of maybe how they can plot with their character and yours depending on potential interactions, but it also gives you a chance to gush about them to everyone. (We know you want to!) <b>Initial Ideas:</b> We know you're just getting started off here so you may not have any solid goals for where you want to go yet, but let us know if there's anything you're looking for to start off with! Types of CR, parts of the setting you want to play with, magic you want to have your character have a disaster with, whatever floats your boat. <b>Favorite Food:</b> This section is going to change for each OOC intro, we just want to put something fun each time. :) This time, put your character's favorite food! <b>Anything else:</b> Permissions, opt-outs, shitposting, etc.

Player Name: Mare
Contact: Add me at marineisle! PMs are also dandy :)
Pronouns: Any pronouns OK!
Tell us about yourself: Howdy all! I'm just a humble artist tending to my shitposting crops (art gets posted on plurk). Day job is an archivist. No real tag schedule outside of daylight EST hours. It's nice to meet you!

I'm also already in the game as Rei groundzeroes so I hope the character whiplash is as funny to you all as it is to me. SDKLSFDFSD

Character Name & Journal: Rinea silvergarden
Tell us about them: Rinea! Looking and acting like she just walked out of a princess shoujo manga, Rinea is the fiancée to the Rigelian Empire's heir apparent (turned heir presumptive lol, things don't go well for him). However, she absolutely hates court life and has spent most of her years being an uncomfortable wallflower to avoid conflict. She adores dancing, though, and will do quite well for herself when placed among plants and friendlier people with less ulterior motives.

Unfortunately for Rinea, I've taken her from the absolute gulf of her fiance's corruption arc so she's entering Avalon severely shellshocked and unmoored from her sense of self.
(also despite being from a Fire Emblem game Rinea is a civilian NPC and has no combat training to speak of lmfao)

Initial Ideas: IT'S MOTHER FUCKIN CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT TIME Here are some bullet points of just some Stuff
• culture shock comedy lollll
• rinea canonically "will sway to the beat of any music within earshot" but she definitely only knows ballroom dancing so she's about to get her little medieval mind blown
• Will get along well with encouraging characters (no matter how brusque they are about it LOL), or other polite and formal Victorian Manners esque characters.
• I gave her nerd magic (alchemy) so she may need escorts at points to retrieve ~rare potion ingrdients or w/e
• Rinea's familiar is also An entire fucking monster so that will be fun to play with
• coming to terms with the fact that she is definitely dead back home and it's actively her beloved fiance's doing and WHAT THE FUCK IS SHE SUPPOSED TO DO WITH HERSELF (and her relationship to him) NOW but rinea will need to get to know other people here better before we whip this one out, for maximum fun

Also I'm happy for TDM threads to be canon!

Favorite Food: GOOD QUESTION! Rinea comes from a very cold country with not-very-arable land. Her favorites are probably hot foods, or sweets, which would be more difficult to come by. In this game your units can eat raw flour so Things Are Kinda Rough out there

Anything else: Permissions/opt out pages are incoming :)

Keeping their TDM thread canon, Chris would probably want to check in on Rinea once they're settled, and is also experiencing a fair amount of culture shock herself, so that can be a fun friendship-building experience for both of them if you'd like.

She'd also be happy to make herself available for any ingredient hunting if need be!

[silvergarden]

Yay!! That sounds super great! I love their TDM thread so far, theyre both so good 🥺🥺

I'm looking forward to their future interactions!!

[leicesters]

Hi Mare! I haven't played her game yet, but I enjoyed our tdm thread a lot, and i'm happy to keep it as game canon if you are. Rinea seem super cute.

I've sent you a friend request on plurk, hope you don't mind!

[silvergarden]

Candace! \o/ Yes, thank you for playing with me!! Claude's a fun guy so I was very happy to see him, hahaha

[cameprepared]

Hello! I absolutely love Shadows of Valentia and would be super happy to get CR with Rinea.

I'm Ax, and I've got two characters here. Claire from Resident Evil, and Tsuyu from My Hero Academia. Claire's probably an easier fit, since she's been dealing with helping medieval types get adjusted for a while now, and she's also a very encouraging person with strong protective instincts.

[silvergarden]

Hi Ax! That sounds like The Dream, I would love that... i look forward to tagging her!! 🥺💕

also i'm so glad you like SoV, it's my fav fire emblem game but it is truly the dark horse of modern FE LMAO

[cameprepared]

It's a fun game! Celica is a wonderful character and I like Alm and Berkut and a lot of the others.

[standvastig]

I don't have anything constructive to say but I will just cry all day about Rinea and Berkut.

[silvergarden]

LMFAOOOO SAMEEEE AH I SEE YOU ARE A MAN OF CULTURE AS WELL hhhueheuuuoorurgh it kills me especially knowing how close we got to berkut being a playable unit (voice lines acted in english and ALL!!!!!!!!) but INSTEAD THEY [sound of a truck going by]

[ofnovalue]

god that last note.

they should form a club, just the two of them, for that specific thing.

[silvergarden]

Oh my god??? Oh NO??!?!?! It's a plague!!! A scourge!! DShjsksdsd
