new character ooc intro

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:

no subject
Contact: Feel free to add me on plurk at
Pronouns: She/they
Other Characters? Thancred Waters; Camus; Jean Gunnhildr; Ferdinand von Aegir
Tell us about yourself: Knitter (general fiber arts, really), FFXIV Queue Sitter, reader, nerd. I work a standard office set of hours, pst. So I'm a weekend evening tagger.
Character Name (Canon): Lancer of Cu flavor (Fate / Stay Night, UBW path)
Tell us about them: Lancer is a fighty boy. If you offer to fight him, you have a new friend, unless you're like a super asshole. His loyalty is why people liken him to hounds so much, along with being the Hound of Culann in his myth. He's also a helpful guy and will probably have like 10 part time jobs. Also easy to kill. But don't offer him dog meat. /headtilt smile/
Initial Ideas: Please be friends with the super nice puppo. He wants to be your friend too. Unless you're a golden archer or a priest. (There will also be a betting pool on who kills who first: Archer or Lancer.)
What are your holiday traditions? Seeing my family. I live outside my nuclear family's house (I'm an old one.) I also burn candles for yule.
Anything else:

Contact:
Pronouns: She/Her
Other Characters? Archer (EMIYA), Jean Kirstein, Mamoru Chiba, Ren Jinguji
Tell us about yourself: I'm a Finnish girl who's trying to correct her sleeping habits so you might see me around at odd hours (it's currently almost 5 am, but I woke up at like midnight... lol). I'm usually quiet on plurk, but it's still the most favored contact method.
Also I'm a helper mod around here and NPC Merlin from time to time.
Character Name (Canon): Elsa (Frozen)
Tell us about them: The former queen of Arendelle and holder of ice magic back home. She's outgoing and a bit adventurous, enjoying her newfound freedom of finding out what she actually is after years and years of not knowing what the purpose for her powers are. She's the older sister of Anna and while she's older and calmer for most part, it's hard to say which one is the more reckless one, really.
Her familiar is one of these tiny snowmen and her magics are Kinetic and Elemental. I enjoyed realizing Anna is now the better ice mage out of them.
She will have with her a few of her canon clothes, a mini version of a snow giant and her close friend Bruni who is no longer a fire spirit.
Initial Ideas: I'm going with the flow and seeing what the event brings us, but mostly she's gonna deal with not being super strong with ice magic anymore and having other elements... which is going to be very weird.
What are your holiday traditions? Going home to visit my family and watch "from all of us to all of you" and some christmas song concerts every year. Not that I'm too big of a fan of Christmas.

Pronouns: They/Them !
Other Characters? Riza Hawkeye (Fullmetal Alchemist)
Tell us about yourself: The first thing to know about me is: I'm goldfish brain. I'm awful on discord dms because I'll click the message, think about responding, get busy, and find out two weeks later I never responded. I never feel like I'm a good RPer so I'm constantly striving to try and become a better writer (but aren't we all in a writing hobby?) My hobbies right now are playing on gta nopixel and cryinh about how I can't play hard mode songs in project sekai.
Character Name (Canon): Gray ( Lord El-Melloi II's Case Files — Fate/ franchise)
Tell us about them: A young girl born in a small Welsh village that looks as if it froze in time... Gray never expected to know the outside world. Most people in her village live and die under its strange, strict rules and she should have been no different. That village's attempted reincarnation/vessel for the Legendary King Arthur and never allowed to be her own person, Gray was only allowed to leave for one person's attempt to spare her life... But more importantly, because someone said they needed her and offered to hate the face she was given. This was six months ago and the shy, lifeless girl that had left that village has began to hope for a future of her own.
Initial Ideas:
I don't have a lot of ideas just yet. At the canonpoint Gray is coming from she's really just began to separate herself from her village and find her own reasonings for living. Thrusting her into a whole new environment utterly alone is... Honestly, going to be devastating. She's just a fifteen-year-old who until recently lived in a village with less than 100 people. Someone who's world consisted of mystery and adventure novels, so while she's competent at enough things... Please someone help her out, take her under your wing, what have you.
She does have kinetic and death magic! She's always canonically been sensitive to ghosts and spirits but also... She's terrified of them. It'll make her stop dead in her tracks. So she won't necessarily by happy her powers still are in part to do with it.
Look, she's a gravekeeper in-training afraid of ghosts, bully her or pity her. Ask her why and maybe be sad.I love her relationship with Waver/Lord El-Melloi and the rest of the cast, but I think allowing her to meet people on her own accord is something I'm most interested in! She's very timid and shy, but kindhearted. Please befriend.
The first time she really ever had sweets was when she left her village. :( She loves them, please introduce her to more kinds.
One of my favorite Gray gimmicks is that she loves to clean. This child literally got a part-time job cleaning... to buy cleaning supplies... for her other part-time job cleaning up after Waver. Please be concerned but also hire her to clean your places!!
You won't see him, but she has a case hidden under her cloak at all times. Sometimes it gives a hoarse laughter or squawks out insults. Sometimes she tries to hide it by coughing, pretending to make noises, etc, have fun with that.
A notable thing characters are always welcome to take note of is that Gray always has a hood on. While at a much later canon point she may not hate it as much, she doesn't like others looking upon it because the village she grew up in revered her for her face and never saw her as anything else. This face looks remarkable similar to other characters in play: Artoria Pendragon/Saber most especially, although Gray's hair is grey instead of blond. Fates and others are always welcome to pick up on that
though Gray will likely not like it.This is more than I thought, I'm sorry.
What are your holiday traditions? (I never know if this OOC or IC, so we'll make it IC haha) I don't really have any... Maybe some Christmases mother would let me put a little extra butter on my toast?
Anything else:
please give her cats, but DON'T let her play among us

Hi new baeber face! I'm sorry I didn't tag Gray's tdm, irl life has been socially busy and admittedly I'm still learning most Fate/things through RP (not that I mind spoilers anytime, so no worries about that) but she sounds cute! Any of my quintet would gladly be friends and please, Gray can come clean some of their housings anytime!♥
no subject
gareth here works at rin's restaurant so they're bound to run into one another. she's very good about not pushing the Chaldea thing on characters not from the FGO timeline but boy does his reputation precede him
so she's gonna. make a face at him.
no subject
if you want to consider their tdm thread game canon, i'm down!
no subject
Welcome to the game!

her purpose is to make snowgies |DOh my goodness I got super ecstatic when I saw Elsa pop up on the TDM! (Also just remembered I need to tag her back with Beowulf). Anyway, yes Elsa is a treat and thank you for bringing her in~!

As long as Archer doesn’t find them together in one place LOL!no subject
Well, bring it on. I know it's late, but would you mind if I tagged Gray on the TDM?
no subject
Please don't feel like you need to apologize! Life is like that and I haven't been any better the past week. Take care of you first, roleplay is always secondary! It's okay I'm a fake Fate fan really — But yes, please let her just show up at your house and clean all the time guys.
She's useful, see!no subject
I'd love to consider it game canon!
no subject
missed case files event every time, haabut I've really enjoyed seeing your Ritsuka! Gray def. won't be the FGO one and doesn't have as much growth as her lines give her in the game but :') it's fine just avoid bringing up the Thing and she'll be happy to meet Ritsuka!no subject
At least for me.Although, at least this isn't canon world to make it *worse* given /handwaves to spoilers.This is a late response and you already did but ! Yes, of course! Always feel free to tag me no matter where/how late. I try to be very easy going!
no subject
I should probably at least figure out if they ever establish a link to Chaldea during the event/if Mash would recognize her beyond “is a servant Around Chaldea”…9_9a? God playing someone who knows Everyone is stressful sometimes lmaoI feel like if nothing else they should be able to bond over a mutual fondness of MYSTERY NOVELS!! That’d be cute af.Anyway hi I’m Carrie and always happy to have more fates even if I know nothing about them haha! I’m rather slow but I look forward to playing with you!!
no subject
Anyway no hi friend looking forward to seeing Not-Chaldea’s-Cu around hehehe. Mash is interested in learning more about their Grail War!
no subject
I don't know much about Fate/, but your girl looks so cute... Klaudia here was also from a situation in which she was very isolated, so she's just figuring it out day by day (and mostly loving living her own life with a forceful kind of optimism). I'd love to see if they get along! Even if Klaudia bullies a little, she mostly means well. She thinks ghosts are super cool, so she'll definitely tease about that; but she's got a somewhat-unrealized protective streak in her too, especially for people who are trying to find their own way.

Pronouns: she/her/he/him both good!
Other Characters? Kadoc Zemlupus. Just felt like playing a whole range of body types here
Tell us about yourself: Hello hello! I've been RPing for uhhhhh over 16 years now, yeesh, and beyond that I love food, drink, jewelry, fragrance, video games (casually), other games, animals of all kinds . . . I'm into a lot of stuff a little bit, a jack of all trades kind of person, lol. I'm a project manager at an advertising and content agency so that spills over into my professional life too, where I have to be able to do Some Of a billion different things. I have a dog named Toby! He's a bastard man! I live in Seattle, so I'm PST and during the week am only around in the evenings. I've also had a ludicrously busy few months so my tagging speed has been slow lately, but we're finally almost over the hump of RL bullshit we've been dealing with, so I am hoping to speed up soon!
"We" is me and Terra, the Ritsuka player, who is my lovely wife 😘
Character Name (Canon): Kars (Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, specifically Part 2, Battle Tendency)
Tell us about them: Battle Tendency is the story of just a whole bunch of assholes butting heads with one another and then instantly deciding they actually respect one another after all and are friends now; in that context, Kars is the only major character who is too much of an asshole to get the "he was pretty cool now that he's dead!" treatment. He manages this through a lack of principles and a single-minded obsession with his goals, which both lead him to go a little too far for our hero's tastes. But Kars is not impossible to get along or bond with—it's just, if you stand in his way, all bets are off. You also have to deal with him being a fucked up immortal with some obsessive ideas and the world's biggest superiority complex, but you know! Nobody's perfect! (Ooh, don't tell him that. That's a raw topic.)
Initial Ideas: Kars is here to dig into shit and cause trouble, though he isn't the kind of villain who causes trouble for fun or whimsy; he only does things that further whatever he's aiming at. It's just that he does those things shamelessly and relentlessly, and from a very inhuman perspective. His primary goal starting out is going to be to Break Magic, somehow, as he's operating under the assumption that the limitations magic has in Avalon (e.g. everyone only having two types) are artificial and can be overcome with work and research. That's kind of his whole deal, is trying to break systems so he can overcome them. As a player, I obviously don't expect this to actually work, but hey, he's a very patient man and it gives him something to work on!
I do also want him to form bonds with people here. He's not exactly easy mode, but right now he's in a very lonely place and has never in his 100,000 year life been more willing to make some comrades . . . if they can deal with him.
What are your holiday traditions? When I was a kid we had advent calendars EVERY year. I don't always pick one up as an adult, but this year Terra and I found this one which has delicious truffles for both of us behind each door, hohoho!
Anything else: I'm still getting up things like permissions (and icons), but for now, you can find Kars's opt-out here! I'm happy to respect anyone who doesn't want to deal with him for any reason.

Pronouns: She/Her
Tell us about yourself: A FFXIV and anime nerd. My anime drive is mostly One Piece and MHA. I work my own company so my hours are funky.
Character Name (Canon): Paimon (Genshin Impact)
Tell us about them: Paimon is an npc who follows the 'hero' the 'Traveller' around, guiding him/her like a little Navi from LoZ with no filter what-so-ever. She's a floating child-like being, age unknown, and somehow she knows most of her homeworld like the back of her head. She loves food, adventures, and there is only ONE PAIMON.
Initial Ideas: She's a return character here, so it's mostly getting back on the boat and see what is happening. Because I've been so lazy playing the game lately, she's pulled from the first part of Izanami where she and the Traveller barely escapes Lighting God's death.
What are your holiday traditions? Aha-haha.... I don't really have holiday traditions, I mostly meditate on full and new moons. This time around though, I do give out presents either before Saint Nick or after, mostly because I have JW parents. That's another story...

I cannot give you the answer of if they met to havev a link, a mystery to me ;; tho I imagine given Waver/Zhuge Liang tends to be pretty big and Gray is his apprentice she'd tag along with him in Cladea a lot so maybe???But yes!! Mystery novels... And iirc short lifespans because people want Servants (: iIt's nice to meet you Carrie!! And honestly Fate is a big franchise! I only know so much and just stare at pretty cards on FGO that's about it :( But yes! My energy has been low so I've been slow, but let us soon! Plot! Mystery novels and... sweets.
no subject
I don't, I just sit here in my little clock tower part of the world and cryBut yes!! I am always down to see where characters go and what happens. Gray has legitimate reasons to be terrified of ghosts but also... Bully her it will be fine. Bullying happens a lot.
