Jaina | Age of Apocalypse!Magneto

Player Name & Pronouns: Jaina, she/her
Preferred Communication: [plurk.com profile] effervescible, Disco is effervescible#8341

Character Name & Journal: Erik Magnus Lehnsherr
Guild Affiliation: n/a
Plot/CR Hooks: Short introduction for those unfamiliar: this version of Magneto is quite different from the version in the main comics/movies because in his timeline (which is bad), Charles Xavier was murdered saving Erik's life, pushing him to abandon his notions of mutant supremacy in favor of pursuing his dead friend's dream. But everything changed when the Fire Nation Apocalypse attacked.

Anyway, this dude just came out of an apocalypse (where he killed Apocalypse) and is quite frankly not used to not existing in a world that isn't a complete hellscape! He's a charismatic big leader-type who's used to devoting everything to a singular goal and will feel kind of unmoored without one!

He's also a pretty good teacher and works well with people learning to control their abilities. Also a sucker for kids. Additionally, unlike standard issue Magneto, he has glorious hair. God bless the '90s.

Character Motivations: A man needs a goal. He's not going to consciously be like "OK I'm in a different dimension, time to make a to-do list!" but he'll find himself gravitating toward that. The man is intense as hell, he can't just sit back and relax even if he wants to.

Potential Roles: He's typically the wise mentor/leader type who will also throw down in a heartbeat if necessary. Very, very used to being in charge, even if he doesn't take people's loyalty for granted. Not that he'll expect to step into that kind of role here, but dealing with a change in circumstances is half the fun, right?

Also, I am totally okay with starting over on CR and not making the TDM canon if people want to start fresh. Or maybe we keep it. Who knows, tell me what you think!
