SHURIMON

[sonofgold]

Hello my name is: Shurimon
Friend me: Plurk shurimon, twooter shurimon
I like: Pokemon, BoJack Horseman, FMA, Firefly, Stargate Atlantis, Castle, Marvel, Power Rangers/Super Sentai, video games, reading, music, abandoned places, and hilariously bad bootleg products.
Notes: Pronouns are she/her. My tagging speed can be very slow due to work stuff, and if that doesn't work for you, that's totally fine. ♥ Plurk or Dreamwidth PM are the best ways to get ahold of me. I also tend to be shy about adding people on Plurk, but I'll gladly add anyone back.

JENNIFER KELLER

[forsometimenow]

Characters: Jennifer Keller
What they are like: Jennifer's from the good ship Wonderduck and is from a very tropey sci-fi canon, so by this point there's little in the Fleet that can faze her. She's a medical officer and is very confident in the infirmary, but outside of it she can be shy, socially awkward, lack self-confidence and have difficulty approaching others. However, she is a good friend and good at being a listening ear when needed.
Looking for: Jennifer has been offering (handwaved) first-aid lessons to anybody willing to learn, and she's been starting to gather medical supplies to make first-aid stations/supply caches around the Iskaulit, so anybody wanting to help with that would be great. Also, just more friends and more connections in general.

EMIRI

[resnipstance]

Hello my name is: EMIRI!!! (capslock optional)
Friend me: plurk @ exclamationmarks, tumblr @ emirin, art tumblr @ cassaru, twitter @ ecphonemes. I have a personal plurk @ emirin which is just for real life shit. Not private, just separate. If anyone is interested in my real life they can go there, otherwise I like to keep my main plurk RP/fandom oriented.
I like: My primary fandom is Star Wars, but I plurk/tweet/etc about other things too. ATM though I'm pretty quiet online since I'm juggling a lot of RL jobs.
Notes: Timezone is Australian Eastern Time! Also I am going to be in Seattle, Vancouver, Vancouver Island, and Toronto in November! So holler at me if you wanna meet.

SIMON TAM

[pompous_today]

Characters: Simon Tam
What they are like: Simon is the Bloodsport's doctor. He seems very serious and distant on the surface; he's been through a lot in his life and very guarded. However, he's a loyal friend and a consummate professional, and he's gotten to the point where he's "ah, ok, that sounds 100% plausible" about anything wacky that comes up in the Fleet. He also has a sarcastic sense of humor that rears its head every now and then. Simon is very very good at what he does and is available for any doctoring or checkup needs.
Looking for: I need to expand Simon's CR circle, because he's been feeling like he doesn't have much use outside of being a doctor, and as his last network post indicated, he's feeling a little useless and isn't quite sure why he's still on the supposed "show". He's also determined to expose Atroma because he's becoming more and more convinced that the reality show thing is a sham and that everyone on the Fleet's been brought here for a darker purpose.
Notes: I have been struggling a lot to find things to do with Simon in this game, so I'm going to give it til the end of October to see if things pick up, but if not, I may be dropping him.

RICHARD CASTLE

[thebestseller]

Characters: Richard Castle
What they are like: Castle is the Windrose's almighty janitor and space dad. He's a very friendly, outgoing person who's a famous author back home, so he is very much into playing it up for the cameras, since he's used to being a celebrity. He also helped the NYPD solve homicide cases back home, and is pretty good at obfuscating stupidity (ie hiding his intelligence behind a smokescreen of ditzy cluelessness). Castle has a big heart and is kind, generous and loyal, especially to his shipmates.
Looking for: Castle has been laying low ever since he got tossed in space jail after his Team Moxie brethren goaded him into grafitiing enemy territory. He might throw a party since I totally missed his first Fleetiversary later in the month. Castle has a group of cleaning droids that can often be seen with him; they came with his augment and are smarter than the average droid thanks to The Vision's influence. He can also be a space dad and a listening ear to people who need it.

[wolfehawke]

Hello my name is: Reiko
Friend me:
- Plurk: reikofanel
- Tumblr: Heinrippy
- AIM: chosen gigolo
- Twitter: hartsapocalypse
I like: these fandoms, costuming, art, gaming of both the video and tabletop varieties
Notes: My plurk mostly consists of rp stuff, though things about work and general thoughts will come up sometimes. Tumblr is almost all Dragon Age and Cyborg 009. Occasionally I'll post my art either place. Twitter is a wasteland.

Characters: Adalwolfe Hawke
What they are like: A diplomatic but charming version of the malleable protag from Dragon Age 2, Adalwolfe is basically a huge goober who wants to protect everyone but sometimes has to make hard choices. He's not a fan and would much rather just be bros with everyone. He's passionate about dogs, dragons, his boyfriend Anders, and Mage Rights (not in that order) and he really really tries to always look for the diplomatic solution to any issue, though considering his luck he doesn't always manage. If you're close enough to be considered family, he will drive himself into the ground trying to keep you safe. Just saying.
OH and he's communications officer for the First Breath but spends a lot of time on the Three Twins because Anders is the doctor there. He also works at Malum and is growing increasingly concerned with its progressively more ridiculous presentation. Crowley what are you doing?

Looking for: In general, more friends! I do enjoy negative CR, but I've had my fill for the last couple months so building friendships is definitely where I wanna go for Wolfe at present. PLEASE INTRODUCE HIM TO STUPID MODERN STUFF like tv, music, snacks, and games if at all possible. Seriously, he would so be the type to stay up late with cheeto-dust all over his hands marathoning all the Die Hard movies back to back. Or Charmed. Actually I think he'd really like Charmed...
Also looking for any mages and/or exorcists/mediums/whatever with demon/spirit possession knowledge from their own canons that might be able to help with a future plot resolution.

Notes: I tend to prefer prose for action but I'll go with whatever, just be warned that brackets are mostly just a formality and if you didn't want five paragraphs of introspection I'm really sorry.

ALPHONSE ELRIC

[sonofgold]

Characters: Alphonse Elric
What they are like: Alphonse is the Vanquish's security officer. He is a sweet teenage boy who is kind to everybody and loves animals. He is also a formidable alchemist and martial artist, since he and his brother worked for the military and fought against the big bad for most of their canon.
Looking for: Sparring partners. Al is also fascinated by magic and technology from others' worlds and loves discussing them and comparing and contrasting them to his own alchemy. He can also use his alchemy to create stuff and repair things, and on this planet has a standing offer to make clothing/accessories for people based on their chosen faction.
Notes: Al's alchemy involves the deconstruction and reconstruction of matter into new forms. He doesn't use it on living beings, however. Also, Al spent some years detached from his flesh and blood body; his body was starved and atrophied when his soul came back to it, and even after two years+ of recovery, sometimes he tires easily and needs the aid of a cane or a crutch to walk.

AHSOKA TANO

[resnipstance]

Characters: JUST AHSOKA i'm not good at juggling
What they are like:

• AHSOKA IS A CHAOTIC GOOD BB WHO TRIES HER BEST TO BE NEUTRAL GOOD AND SUCCEEDS A GOOD FIFTY PERCENT OF THE TIME.
• She feels strongly about protecting those who need protection, justice, and freedom.
• She suffers from wartime PTSD though she isn't aware of it and wouldn't think of it in those terms.
• She's an ex-Jedi, but not a Sith either. A Force user who grew up a Jedi, who still believes strongly in the tenets of the Jedi code, but who also sees the flaws and faults in the Jedi Order and can no longer be a part of it.
• She's fiercely loyal to those she cares about and will CUT A BITCH for her friends.
• She's also a bisexual disaster.

Looking for: I would really like to rekindle some of Ahsoka's non-canon CR that's fallen by the wayside in the last few months while I've been busy with RL! I'd ALSO really like some antagonistic relationships, since Ahsoka gets on so well with everybody, and I like a little bit of aggro in my RP. Anyway, even if you don't fit in either of these two categories, pls hit me up, I'm always open to new CR!

Notes: Please go here if you're confused about Ahsoka's weird looking appearance and want an explanation. Alternatively, please go here for Ahsoka's opt-out permissions post for using the Force around your character! \o/

[wolfehawke]

I think Ahsoka and Adalwolfe would really get along if you wanna have them meet? They have a lot of the same values and I'd love to have them talk about similarities and differences in the Jedi Order and the Circles of Magi from his canon, as well as Force connection and magic in general.

[resnipstance]

Sure! I'm going to bed rn since it's 2am where I am lmao but if you have a top level out anywhere, link me and I'll tag it! Otherwise I'll put something up in the morning \o/

Pan

[aigue]

Hello my name is: Pan
Friend me: Discord @ pan#2663, diremuta
I like: Stranger Things, Pokemon, Marvel movies, video games, BoJack Horseman, The Great British Bake Off (cooking shows in general), Steven Universe, indie and folk music.
Notes: MST timezone. Will probably be pretty busy this semester due to grad school+work.

Characters: Renart
What they are like: Dumb OC fox who is more interested in hedonistic things like food than anything important. She can actually be incredibly useful when motivated but in general she prefers being retired from responsibility. Mostly staying in her fox body right now because that is how she's dealing with being pulled away from the guy she loves. Her default body is actually mostly human with floofy ears and a tail. Acts very foxlike and is actually the folk character Reynard though she doesn't advertise that. She is super magical and made out of the belief of humans: her soul is a literal book and she has mind control powers, though she tries to avoid using the latter.
Looking for: Anything! Positive and negative cr, so people she can mooch off of, people she can tease, people who are like "why was a talking fox given the augment to use guns?" She is totally fine with both heroes and villains since she herself is very neutral. Right now she is sneaking into all three factions using both her fox and human bodies in order to acquire things through less than respectable means, since she is a lazy butt and has no money.
Notes: I am good with any kind of rp style. There's a blanket opt-out for her mind control if you'd prefer it not coming up at all.

Katsu

[helluva_pilot]

Hello my name is: Katsu
Friend me: katsudonburi or katsudonburi if you want
I like: I'm a writer, and since I lost my day job I'm focusing on that, so I talk about writing a lot. Into science fiction and fantasy, and I watch a ton of movies. Not really active in fandom any more, though I have opinions about MCU. I play Destiny, Waframe, and horror video games even if I'm too much of a wimp to play them directly myself. Also known to Poke Mangoes and wear bow ties.
Notes: They/them or ze/zir please. My tagging is kind of a mess right now since a lot of my time is getting eaten up by writing or by renovation on my house. (Expect to hear a lot of complaining about that for the next month.) I will also backthread into oblivion, if slowly, so never feel bad about dropping a thread if you feel like you need to move on.

Poe Dameron

[helluva_pilot]

Characters: Poe Dameron
What they are like: Poe Dameron is the best pilot in the Resistance, a daring and determined guy who is willing to risk everything to defeat the First Order. He considers doing the right thing to be much more important than following rules or orders. He's also a complete dork or tends to make things up as he goes along.
Looking for: I just need more CR for Poe in general. I'm kind of floundering with him since he doesn't have an overriding purpose other than being Finn's boyfriend and never again being alone in the same space with General Hux (thanks, jerk). He's reasonably outgoing but has never really gotten into the network, but makes friends pretty easily. More friends, more enemies, more CR in general please. He'd really love to teach some people how to do some awesome shuttle maneuvering, I think. Poe doesn't try to get in trouble, but trouble seems to follow him because he's a risk taker. So he's really in to encouraging people to take risks, go with their hearts, do what they think is right--as long as it's not going to get anyone hurt.

Wrath

[pain_train]

Characters: Wrath
What they are like: Wrath is the happiest, most precious murderfriend anyone could want. She loves all things pink and sparkly, paints really well, and likes getting in fights.
Looking for: Give me all your CR. Wrath actually has a hard time getting negative CR, so when I run across someone she isn't instantly friends with, that's a special moment. But that said, she always wants more friends. Also GIVE ME ALL YOUR TEXT THREADS. I love doing text threads with Wrath, it's ridiculous.
Notes: Wrath is my most shippy character; she doesn't officially do relationships and considers sex to be one of her hobbies, so she'll sleep with just about anyone if she thinks they're cute. (More into boys than girls, but she'll make exceptions.) This doesn't stop her from forming deep emotional attachments with people, she just doesn't do so under any kind of official thing. Wrath is also a little socially off, so she tends to be tactless, brutally honest, and weirdly insightful. She's incredibly emotionally intelligent and tends to be very good at reading people in certain situations, like when they're trying to be super manly about their emotional pain.

Loki

[complicatedliar]

Characters: Loki
What they are like: The God of All Dickbags
Looking for: Loki's always looking for more chewtoys to torment in the fleet. Hux and Theon can't be his only boyfriends; he's got so much love to share. Of course, he's also always in the market for people to flirt with for purposes of potential manipulation. (And occasionally one of those will manage to get under his skin and actually reach the creamy bastard filling beneath and become somewhat friend-like, which is an odd thing indeed.) He'd also really like to have a few magic students, since that was a good way to keep himself distracted and not stabbing people in Luceti.
Notes: Loki lies like a rug, until he doesn't. I don't tend to mark all of his lies or half-truths (or rare full truths) in tags unless I consider them significant, because otherwise I'd never write anything else. If you have a question about something in particular he's said, always feel free to ask. Loki's also a CRAU from Luceti, so he's an old hand at RP fishbowls and already has his strategies on how to wait things out.

Hebe

[therewillbeorder]

Hello my name is: Hebe
Friend me: illuminations
I like: Tolkien, Star Wars, Almighty Johnsons, all sorts of things I'm too lazy to list right now.
Notes: I'm in US Eastern Time. I'm also in school so I'm going to be a bit more spacey as the semester starts but always feel free to hit me up on plurk or anywhere on my journals if need be.

[scanninggaydis]

Hello my name is: Ilana
Friend me: ltmutiny (ALSO THE SAME ON TUMBLR)
I like: Battlestar Galactica, Hamilton, webcomics (Stand Still Stay Silent is the current fave but also Lackadaisy), Lost, Downton Abbey, Love Live!, Zombies, Run!, Orphan Black, musicals in general, comics
Notes: EST! My plurk is a healthy mix of RP/fandom and life stuff

Characters: Felix Gaeta
What they are like: Felix is currently the back-up pilot on the Vanquish! Generally, he's a level-headed kind of guy with his heart in the right place but...with a tendency for being a terrible judge of character. He's smart, usually pretty sarcastic, but also somewhat awkward when you get under the crunchy sarcasm shell. Despite the sarcasm, he is still usually relatively friendly. Friendly, but with walls. He's complicated. His canon hates everyone and he's still dealing with the emotional fallout, even after 3 years as a CRAU so he's...he's a little messed up, though he does his best to present a very normal outward front. Also Felix ~loves~ science, okay. Science is the best.
Looking for: Science buddies. Sarcasm buddies. Space/sci-fi buddies. Soldier/military buddies. Little brother/sister types to get under his defenses. (Adults who get under his defenses too, but that's tougher....) People who aren't baseline human, so that he can further work on overcoming his xenophobia. I'm interested in pushing him towards romantic relationships, but that's going to be a long haul effort because he's completely convinced that he's bad news as a boyfriend right now.

Also this is a new and kind of random want but: someone to teach him Ancient Greek?

[scanninggaydis]

ngl, I've been eyeing Wrath as someone I want to thread against with Felix since I got in. Bonus: I think there's the chance for their CR to start off a little antagonistic, at least from Felix's end, mostly because of all of Wrath's...cyborg-ishness. I don't think it would stay that way, but it could be interesting to play with.

Hux

[therewillbeorder]

Characters: Armitage Hux
What they are like: He's literally a bastard whose father really didn't like him (seriously, what a great first name). He grew up in the middle of a military regime on a star destroyer in the depths of space and eventually blew up a star system just to get rid of a government. Definitely a few screws loose with this one.
Looking for: Anything from developing canon CR to getting more cross-canon CR. I love negative CR but positive CR is always great as well! He definitely needs to meet more people who aren't going to punch him.

I think there is a waiting list to punch this asshole anyway but if you have your heart set on it I'm sure we can work something out in the future. Poor guy needs a break right now though (thanks Erik).
Notes: There are obviously a lot of dark, bad things from his background to worldview so let me know if you are uncomfortable with anything and we can work around.

Finwë

[twicewed]

Characters: Finwë
What they are like: Former High King of the Noldor and the head of a huge family. Seriously, they're everywhere and keep having kids all over the place. Finwe is almost old as dirt, makes for a great nightlight, and while he loves his family above all he's also a terrible parent who ignored his daughters and allowed his oldest son to ruin things for everyone forever.
Looking for: He wants to adopt all the lovely mortals he's met so far because he can and he can only bother his grandsons so much. He's very much still a parent and without having to be king his new hobby is being personnel support on the Huntress. He's at least good at listening to other people's problems just...be wary when taking his advice.

Cassandra

[beathach]

Hello my name is: Cassandra! Cass or Cassie work too.
Friend me: sociologize, sociologize, sociologize @ AIM, and sociologize#8712 @ Discord. I play Miitomo and Pokemon Shuffle Mobile too so hit me up if you wanna be frans.
I like: X-Mans, Marvels, The Rock, Jimmy Fallon, grown men screaming over video games, supernatural shows, WWE, crafts
Notes: Female pronouns! Also my tagging can be sporadic due to some tl;dr medical stuff, so if you ever want to plot the end of a thread ahead of time feel free to let me know! Socks are less evil now that it's getting colder out.

Hank McCoy

[beathach]

Characters: Hank McCoy
What they are like: Hank is post-X-Men: Apocalypse as well as post-kyriakos. He's a professor at Xavier's School for the Gifted as well as an X-Man!

He's incredibly nerdy and awkward at times, and while his issues regarding his mutation have settled down some in the years between movies, they sure are still there. He's always been well-meaning and kind, and he cares about the friends he makes and the people close to him. He also enjoys teaching and distractions, so he'll happily take on any project you give him. Currently just plain married to the Xavier family, but actually only dating Raven Darkholme.

Looking for: Anything! Want to be friends? Hate him for his mutation? Just plain not like him cuz he's a nerdy mcnerdface? I can go either way and I love exploring things as they play out. In particular he could do with some people who he can teach, whether it's help with their powers or just straight-up teaching, and as always he's a magnet for teenage girls who want to bully him, per tradition.

Notes: He just updated to his current canon point and, without going into spoilers, is a lot of Not Okay while pretending to Be Okay. Things will smooth out as everyone settles "back" into the Fleet but if you want to avoid spoilers for the movie, just let me know!

Aurae Le Paulmier

[noprophecies]

Characters: Aurae "Tempest" Le Paulmier
What they are like: Tempest is a half-elf mage and former mercenary, as well as post-kyriakos. Back home, she was tricked for the last year into following some prophecy nonsense, which turned into actually using her and her group to unlock doors to another realm. It sucks.

Tempest is stubborn and prone to anger quickly, and just plain doesn't trust anyone she doesn't already know because of the way he world handles her kind. She's rough around the edges and can be difficult at first, but if you get past the act she's a person who genuinely cares and doesn't want to be alone. Successfully get through to her and you've got yourself the most loyal asshole friend you can get. Because sorry, she's always an asshole.

Looking for: Medieval/high fantasy/magic types! Old men/badass ladies she can flirt with! People to have ridiculously stupid rivalries with! Kids who will completely own her! Come at me, bros.

Meg Masters

[angelherding]

Characters: Meg Masters
What they are like: Meg is a demon from Supernatural, who was kind of bad but now she's kind of good and that sucks, but hey, what can you do? She's allied with the Winchesters, sort of, even if Dean doesn't like it SUCK IT DEAN.

She's a sassy, sarcastic, charming bitch who will you tell you how it is without sugar-coating it. She has a comeback for everything, and while she knows when to keep her mouth shut, well, there's no fun in that, right? She likes to make pop culture references when she snarks, so watch out. She might be a demon, but she is loyal, especially to those she makes real alliances with. And especially if it works out for her.

Looking for: Since Meg is a demon, I welcome any and all negative CR. Come at me, hunters and exorcists, she will laugh at you and egg you on because that's what she does, but she won't actually retaliate because she's a good girl. She's also down for making actual "friends", especially people who can appreciate her snark and her dry humor.

Gwen | Wanda Maximoff (MCU)

[notmutantbutmiracle]

Hello my name is: Gwen
Friend me: FuturePetDetective
I like: I'm a huge video game nerd. Currently, I'm all about that Overwatch, Odin Sphere, and FF14. My favorite games are Bioshock Infinite, Persona 4 (which I'm replaying again atm), and Fire Emblem: Awakening. Other than video games, I'm also an anime watcher, movie goer, and occasionally a TV show binger. At the moment, I'm working my way through Mr. Robot and Voltron. As for movies, I have a huge love for the Marvel Cinematic Universe (obviously), and I'm a sucker for Jim Carrey films.
Notes: Availability-wise, I work odd days and hours b/c of my job in closed captioning. Basically, our entire company runs on EST. So although my schedule reads as 5:00 A.M. to 1:30 P.M., it's actually 4:00 A.M. to 12:30 P.M. where I live. But yeah, this means I tend to primarily tag in the morning and early afternoon. I go to bed early in the evenings most nights except for Wednesday and Thursday nights.

Characters: Wanda Maximoff notmutantbutmiracle
What they are like: Recently, Wanda returned from a trip home and came back with new memories all the way up to the end of Captain America: Civil War. While she's already reconciled with several people she cares about from back home, she's still wrestling with what the future holds both for herself and her friends. Additionally, Atroma apparently saw foot to bring her twin brother Pietro to the Fleet, after it's essentially been a year for her since his death. So yes, she's wrestling with that means for her life here as well, and whether or not she should tell him about his fate. Otherwise, Wanda has opened up a lot more since she initially arrived in the fleet. She tends to greet people now with warmth rather than cold suspicion as she used to. While she still wrestles with the guilt of what her powers can do when they act beyond her control, she's grown in her control, and she her resolve to take responsibility and to make amends for her mistakes drives her to do better. Earning her trust and friendship means gaining a powerful ally, who will come to your defense. However, the quickest way to anger her is to threaten her, her friends, or her brother. And if there's one thing that should be feared, it's the wrath of the Scarlet Witch.
Looking for: Open to all kinds of new CR whether friend or antagonistic. I'm happy to have Wanda thread with anyone and everyone.
Notes: Wanda does have a permissions post on her journal relating to her powers. However, I will always be sure to check with players before having Wanda use any of them. Additionally, given my work schedule (see above), my tagging speed tends to vary depending on the time of day, and how great of a workload there was that day.
