Hello! Welcome! Greetings and salutations! This thread is a general catchall for my characters, but with highlights on what I'm trying to do, specifically. Feel free to see what I can offer and what might catch your interest!
This thread is a companion to and supplement for [this tracker]!
gaia_starContactgaia_star Discord: volantamasis PM: Open, but pls try to get ahold of me on Discord first bc I am very scatterbrained. This thread:Inadvisable because if you don't quote me, I won't know, but if you want to, just make sure you quote me.
gaia_starPlotting Notesgaia_star • I super prefer Discord for all communication, but PM is fine too! Please quote me in threads if you need my attention. • I am very scatterbrained and also just generally prone to losing track of RPs. It's nothing personal, I promise!! If I haven't replied in a while, I probably thought I already tagged it. Please let me know if you're missing a reply from me! • I'm a pretty big fan of Pain with Purpose storylines and elements and don't mind making my (or your!) characters suffer, so as long as something doesn't hit the 'no go' list for a character or myself in general, I'm probably open to it! So don't be afraid to ask. • Feel free to hit me up for civ rp, but I am bad at meet-and-greets! If you're okay with a very short rp, then this is fine, but otherwise please have mercy on me and have our characters meet either under duress or as their powered selves.
gaia_starNo-Go Listgaia_star • I don't like doing romance plots! It's nothing personal, I promise. I do romantic rp with literally one person and that's it. • I like character suffering as much as the next person, but please do not approach me for sexual assault storylines or things of this nature. • Again, I like character suffering, but the terms of that suffering need to be negotiated. Please do not assume without talking to me first!
• Are you an old Hillsworth student? A rowdy one, perhaps? Sailor Ran would love to get into trouble with reconnect with you!
• What about a Ganymede knight? Tikal does want to help and get to know her fellow Ganymede knights, even if she's very busy most of the time! But never too busy to have to go save someone's life.
• Velencian? Yddagen holds warmth for his people regardless of which side they went to. He's ride-or-die for other Velencians and will generally try to help them regardless of who they're fighting.
• Need someone to come rescue your character from peril? Basiluzzo once got starseeded by Faustite because he tried to save a civilian. He's less reckless now, but still has that protective spirit! Likewise, Phaethon and Tikal would probably also come running.
• Need someone with first-aid experience to come rescue your character from peril? Basiluzzo is first-aid certified because of his day job. Imhotep is also curiously good with patching people up, as are Tobias and Ancha. Tincalconite will probably laugh at you, but he is an EMT.
• Is your character a student at DCU? Imhotep is an adjunct ochem/biochem professor there! Yddagen is a student there, as are Tikal and Phaethon. Emain Ablach is entering his first semester teaching in the religious studies department.
• Chaos and looking for a fight? Ran is always ready to throw down, and Basiluzzo, Ancha, and Tikal don't generally take much convincing.
• Want to be in the Order database? Imhotep and Ancha would gladly report everything they can about you for other people's benefit.
• Order and need a place to go? Phaethon and Basiluzzo/Stromboli have welcoming families that wouldn't mind an extra chair at the dinner table, so long as you can keep from attracting too much attention. Tikal will put you up in a hotel for a few nights, free of charge.
• Chaos and need a place to go post-purification? Basiluzzo will gladly connect you with his father, Stromboli, to arrange getting you a place to lay low at the Bell household!
• Need money and can't do a Go Fund Me? Tikal is a professional philanthropist and will probably help you out.
• Have a plot that needs someone a bit rough around the edges? Ancha and Tikal don't take much convincing for this sort of thing, either. If the person needs to be Chaos, then might I suggest Tincalconite?
• Need someone to talk to? Onasilos has a wonderful listening ear, and Emain Ablach is a priest, so it's literally part of his job to be a good listener.
• city planner with the Destiny City urban works department • lives with Imhotep, Emain Ablach, and Promethei • patrols when his schedule allows, usually with one of the other three • does his best to steer clear of fighting anyone that isn't a youma • adopts a "don't bother me, I won't bother you" approach to most members of Chaos ••• NOTABLE PLOTLINES Ransomite's Purification The Aftermath ••• GOOD FOR • rescue if you're really desperate for your hero to come armed with a fancy dinner plate • meeting up with people around his job, or at public works sites around the city • acting as a liaison between his partners and other people
