Character Name & Journal: Bethan Costigan, nogodsnoheroes Guild Affiliation: Given her absolute hatred of authority and organised anything, it's going to take a literal miracle for Bethan to align herself with either guild.
Character Motivations & IC/OOC Goals: This whole system is going to strike Bethan as incredibly corrupt and authoritarian, so I'm planning to take her down a route of "destroy the guilds by any means possible". I'm absolutely up for people trying to talk her out of that, or indeed fight her out of that - obviously, on an OOC level, it's not a goal I actually expect or want her to succeed in! On a personal IC level, she's going to be prioritising any attempts to reach through to home universes - not so much to get back to them, but just to communicate. She wants her family to know she's okay. OOCly, I would really love any opportunity to crack Bethan's armour. She's a very hostile and mistrustful person, but without her family around, she's also going to be kind of unmoored and in desperate need of someone to rely on. (I should note that, because of the kind of character she is, any kind of close positive CR is likely to be a long-term goal rather than something that happens quickly. She's very resistant to the idea.)
Plot/CR Hooks: Bethan's power set hasn't changed from her home setting (she's essentially just inhumanly tough and quick to heal), and this world is close enough to her own that she sees no reason not to keep doing what she was doing anyway, which is a lot of unlicensed vigilantism. So if you want your character to run into a biker who keeps beating up criminals, either to stop her or help her, that's an option. Outside of that, she's an engineer and motorcycle/car mechanic, and will probably be looking for a way to use that, both for money and just because it's important to her. Most of her parts will be legitimately obtained, but she may also go scavenging in scrapheaps and the like. She spends a lot of time climbing on rooftops (even when she's not in vigilante mode), riding motorcycles with no protective gear, and genuinely doing stupid, dangerous things with no regard for her safety or anyone else's. So if anyone wanted to confront her on that, that's a potential in for CR, as well. Although she doesn't know it (being from an alternative timeline, i.e. not a CRAU), characters who have CR with Angela may recognise her as the same Bethan that Angela knew in Ryslig. That's a very one-sided recognition, because she has no clue who Angela is, but it might be interesting.
Additional note: Bethan's kind of awful. She's very abrasive and very traumatised, and I really recommend you take a look at the content warnings listed on her info page before interacting with her. If you want to opt out, that's completely understandable - PM me and let me know which characters it applies to.
...also, I'm sorry for showing up a week late with Starbucks, I put in my app and forgot I was away all of last week.
