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>Other Characters?</b> Or are you so fresh they could sell you at the farmer's market? <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 (Canon):</b> Character name (and what they're from!) <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>A weird food combo you like that people wouldn't expect:</b> This section is going to change for each OOC intro, we just want to put something fun each time. :) <b>Anything else:</b> Permissions, opt-outs, shitposting, etc.

Player Name: Kaity
Contact: likeablecube or likeablecube#0998 adding either is totally fine!
Pronouns: she/her
Other Characters? so fresh and so clean clean
Tell us about yourself: cat lady that mains healers (tera and ragnarok online mostly these days), plays the occasional rpg, was crazy stupid enough to restart her acnh island awhile back and needs to hunt roswell down again. my schedule varies A LOT but i tend to be active evening/late night EST time. it's 6am i'm still awake.

Character Name (Canon): Seifer Almasy, Final Fantasy VIII
Tell us about them: he's from a SUPER early canon point where he's just an ass but not of the brainwashed torturing his pals and releasing monsters from the moon all over the planet variety. a little abrasive and cocky but somewhere in there he cares about his comrades. a little.

he's CRAU from prisma which was CRAU from zodion (ha) and got a nice little kick in the teeth tutorial of most of the awful stuff he ends up doing later in canon thanks to all the garden kiddies. it's a lot to unpack. he still has dreams of being a knight but trying to be a little more smart in choosing his path there. mostly he's just used to this being a new arrival thing and is a little less resistant to talking to people or helping out from time to time.

Initial Ideas: becoming a knight obviously! he doesn't really know for sure if what he does here makes a difference back home but if he's stuck he might as well do something great with himself. his romantic dream has more of the idealistic adventuring meaning, he'll definitely be down to party up and go on side quests. as long as he gets the final hit and more exp

he's got elemental and green magic (cause he was in garden, training to be a seed. haaaa) and a Torama/Coeurl as a familiar. yeah 8 renamed it for no reason, yeah all the other monsters in that game are weird af and this is what i ended up on.

A weird food combo you like that people wouldn't expect: mayo w/fries, the superior dip

Anything else: will be filling out his permissions again soon but down to clown with whatever tbh

[unhappy]

Hello! I'm Tay, nice to meet you!I love Seifer he was one of my faves when I played.

Want to start a "sided with the wrong ppl and regrets it" club with Emerald?

[gotdreams]

i am way more invested in this brat from a '99 game than i should be tbh

but yes, i absolutely do. will there be meetings? with food? he's so glad hot dogs from the caf are a distant memory.

he just wanted to be a hero why did it have to all go to hell how could this happen to me etc

[facebite]

Welcome Kaity! I will throw Susie at Seifer for sure, they can be problem children together.

she'll call him a nerd for having a dream about becoming a knight but secretly think its kinda cool.......

[queenofkur]

Player Name: Melodie
Contact: lorulean, feel free to add me! I'm also on discord at Melodie#5485, but I'm using it a lot less.
Pronouns: she/her
Other Characters? Monika (DDLC)!
Tell us about yourself: So um... I like video games and Uncle Scrooge comics. That may sound strange, but uncle scrooge comics are the best! I'm French so my tagging time may be a bit weird, but I usually tag at least every other day (and I try to do it every day unless I'm busy or lack the energy). Oh also I'm a Christmas nut. To me, each years are just 364 filler days and 1 real day.

Character Name (Canon): Ereshkigal (F/GO)

Tell us about them: A goddess who puts too much focus into her work at the detriment of herself. Which is probably admirable for a goddess, but when you see the absolute state of gods in F/GO, she may very well be the only one who tries that hard. She craves validation and while she wants friends, she is pretty much an introvert who trains in front of the mirror so she can try to look cool when she's called. See the gif below.

She also has some self-esteem issues and anxiety issues to work around. That comes with the territory when everyone thinks you're an evil goddess who kills people left and right. But she is very mature and responsible. She is very capable, and excels at her job, she just got E in her luck stat and D in self-perception.

Initial Ideas: The surface world!! Ereshkigal has never been able to spend much time there, least of all during daytime. So she's planning to discover all the things that make the surface world wonderful (and be disappointed in the process). It's a bit more of a long-term plan, but Ereshkigal will also investigate what's the local underworld like and who the local god of death is. She'll want to visit to ascertain the souls of the dead are well treated, but that's something I'll have to ask the mods about and may be a mini-player plot if accepted.

A weird food combo you like that people wouldn't expect: Bread works with anything.

Anything else:

[gordianknot]

ERESHHHH I was so stoked to see her on the tdm!! Iskandar's just from Zero without any FGO canon attached, so he won't know who she is, but I'm still gonna bother her for sure.

[closecut]

Rapunzel will think she's HELLA friggin' cool. Can they try to be friends??

Maybe they could meet up during the event. Rapunzel will be trying to get her powers working again because HA HA TURNS OUT DARK MAGIC MISFIRING IS NOT FUN FOR ANYONE INVOLVED??

[fullgauntlet]

Oh my goodness a Seifer player?! Welcome! Hello I'm Mich, I play Izuku from My Hero Academia! I'm a HUGE fan of FFVIII so this is awesome! I hope you have so much fun here!!!

[excalibeam]

ERESH!!! I'm so stoked to see her here, she's an absolute fav...

It'll be a little strange for Saber to get used to, since she's in a relationship with Rin here and all... but still!

[toasterdevotion]

Player Name: OddEyes
Contact: OddEyes OddEyes588#2277
Pronouns: He/Him/They/Them
Other Characters? Saber (Artoria Pendragon) and Eri
Tell us about yourself: Oh god, where to begin... I'm a mess of different hyperfixations, expect me to yell about a lot of them at any point in time. You'll mostly see me talking about anything I have a journal for, at least, so you can have some form of expectations when you know me.

Character Name (Canon): Aigis (Persona 3)

Tell us about them: One of the few Anti-Shadow Suppression Weapons in existence, and robotic Persona-user badass of SEES. She's coming in from shortly after The Answer epilogue, and as for the protagonist she knows... she's coming from the Female Protagonist Universe. Sorry, Blue Boy...

She's a little awkward and still figuring out certain human-things, but she's come a long way, even if her common sense needs a little work here and there, and her social skills are... less than ideal. Still, she's compassionate, loyal, and caring... and what's to complain about a Robot that shoots bullets from her hands?

Initial Ideas: At the moment, what's especially exciting is the CR she'll have with the other P3 characters... since that's a whole ton of drama. Still, Kotone's gonna get her Robot GF so... a win all in all, right?

A weird food combo you like that people wouldn't expect: As if I'm not the pickiest eater around... uhhhhhhhhh apples and peanut butter?

Anything else:


Aigis canonically runs on Windows...

[menphina]

AHHH SEIFER. I never expected to see one around, looking forward to catching him about. Does he have his gunblade with him? Catte here would be so excited so see one that resembles the ones she knows back home (the people she lives with have different gunblades she just misses them okay...)

And if he ever needs a healer/spar buddy or someone to learn green magic with!

[gotdreams]

problem children heck yes. i should try to get him a new disciplinary committee squad tbh, he needs some enablers for his attitude hahaha

being a knight is a GREAT dream please he'd be so cool (he would not)

[gotdreams]

a seifer player!! i am out of my mind!!

ff8 is such a good, stupid game. it is so dumb. i really had to think hard about giving him a mini malboro as a familiar to cast every status effect and leave him just spinning in circles all the time. maybe i should have.

[gotdreams]

he does have hyperion!! and will be very happy to talk about it, that's basically the only way to immediately get him in a good mood haha. pondering (eventually) upgrading it though, with all the magic and crafting around maybe it's time he got something as cool as all the later ff kids have. as one of the og gunblade users he deserves it tbh

absolutely to magic buddies too. just find him face down in the grass, complaining about the grass being sad and also why is it sad and why can he tell?? this place is weird

[menphina]

THIS PLACE IS WEIRD but grass is nice to lay on at least and give a hug too, now it's happy.

Also awww yeah, show off that Hyperion. She'll be delighted and totally want to spar against him with her own spear. Gunbreakers are tanks/defending units in XIV so that ought to be fun to play with!!

And then they can probably realize they know similar things like Triple Triad too... I don't think there's a Seifer card in FFXIV yet but they should add one? Squall's is there!

[gotdreams]

sadly seifer is that dps that runs ahead half buffed and aggros an entire room then yells because he doesn't have buffs?? where are buffs? he might like being smug over being the only tank and everyone needing him though tbh

they should absolutely add his card what kinda audacity. im afraid to try and figure out how many hours of my life have been sacrificed to playing triple triad, it's probably the best ff mini game tbh. we should start a card playing group ha

[menphina]

PLEASE YES AND THANK YOU god I suck at TT but I'm on a mission to get every card for that stupid card mount. At least I'm at 300/... however much more got added with Endwalker weeps. I was missing the ones from the ex trials too...


And dw, she's also that DPS... but usually because her friends are the ones tanking... it's all good they don't mind...

[queenofkur]

A loud-mouthed king who thinks he's the best... At least he won't be as disagreeable as Gilgamesh, right? That's what she hopes anyway... I'm looking forward to their CR!

[queenofkur]

Yes they can! Ereshkigal will be delighted to make a new friend. She's so bad at that, her friending track record after tens of thousand years is... One. Make it two please?

That said I'm totally up for them meeting during the event! Hopefully Rapunzel's dark magic won't misfire too badly...

[queenofkur]

Maybe Saber will be able to patch things up between her and Rin! Because they had a disastrous start... Who could have expected that?

But yes, I'm up for all the awkwardness and friendship.

[unhappy]

Hmmm Emerald votes yes, food.

Emerald didn't want to be a hero she just wanted a roof over her head but since she recently joined the heroes she'll only tease him a little bit about wanting to be one. 😉👍

[tantailizing]

becoming a knight

And no one was surprised haha! Though, Zidane'll hire him when he becomes one!

Anyway, hi, welcome to Avalon Kaity! Name's VG and I got some thieving monke boy here and a too serious surgeon lady from Trauma Team.

[purrrrfection]

Player Name: Koree
Contact: sweettalker
Pronouns: She/Her, They/Them
Other Characters? Sakura Haruno, Katara (CRAU), I'll be dropping Rapunzel.
Tell us about yourself: D&D, FFXIV (mostly a story/sidequest and gpose photography gal), roleplaying (clearly lol), reading, music, and video games are the main hobbies! These eat up most of my time when I'm not working, tagging, or sleeping.

Character Name (Canon): I'ziva Ganajai
Tell us about them: I'ziva is what is known as a WoD, which is short for Warrior of Dumbass Warrior of Light in her world/universe, which is just FFXIV's terminology for "protagonist", but she wasn't always. She used to run with the Rogue's Guild in Limsa, and she runs far more Chaotic Good or Neutral Good than anything else. She tends to roll with what feels right according to her moral code and that leaves a lot of wiggle room for CR since she isn't too fussed with labels like "hero" and "villain". She's here to fulfill all your Dumbass Quota needs, be that someone to enable or someone to do something ridiculous, or someone to get into dumb contests with.

She's pretty laid back and loves discovering new places and adventuring. She's now canon updated to post-6.0, so please let me know if you're avoiding spoilers still for any of Endwalker's content. She makes friends pretty easily and likes to explore.

Initial Ideas:

• Fellow CRAU's (especially Prismatica ones)
• People she can have found-family CR with
• People she can annoy but still be friends with
• Drinking and bar-hopping buddies
• Castmates
• People her age (she's in that late 20's range at 28), though all ages are welcome (for gen CR, of course)
• People to harmlessly (and sometimes shamelessly) flirt with (women or men)
• People to have dumb contests with (drinking, arm wrestling, dice or card games, etc.)
• Inevitably people she can prank with her new kinetic (and eventually light) powers...

A weird food combo you like that people wouldn't expect: Ignore Kaity, she doesn't know what she's talking about. BBQ sauce is the ultimate and superior french fry dip. Cultured palettes only.
Anything else: I was here with I'ziva before, but the timing turned out to be really poor since Endwalker was around the corner and things at my job came to a head and blew up in my face shortly after. If we had CR or plans before and you're interested in revisiting them, please let me know!

[gotdreams]
