NOVEMBER OOC PLOTTING AND WELCOME


OOC INTRO & PLOTTING
HELLO, HEROES AND VILLAINS! Welcome to [community profile] metaheroes! We're absolutely delighted to have you here. This is both our OOC introduction and plotting for your initial arrival! Please use the information below to guide your plotting as you settle in.

You are free to post your intro after reading this post! We will not be posting a log for this.

The GUILDS have begun employing safety measures to prevent new arrivals from destroying the cities they land in. As seen on the last TEST DRIVE MEME, the cities have set up ways to intercept the new arrivals and bring them to headquarters as quickly as possible.

ARRIVAL - LITTLE LOVE
This month, new arrivals will find themselves descending amid an already dizzying flurry of white. A supernatural blizzard has hit the little town of Little Love, Kansas, driving the residents inside and covering everything around in feet of snow. The storm came on suddenly and without warning, so residents are frantically working to get everyone inside, including their farm animals, and batten down the hatches of their barns and farmhouses for a whiteout.

Upon hitting the ground, chances are that new arrivals will find themselves lost out in the cold. It's freezing enough to be very dangerous, unless you happen to have some sort of superhuman resistance. A lot of buildings have also lost power, but luckily quite a few of the folks out here have generators and are keeping their lights burning - a few houses even have Christmas lights still on outside! Hopefully you can catch sight of some of these safe havens and make your way in that direction. If you can make it to a home, or even a store where a bunch of others might be stranded, you'll be welcomed inside.

Of course, the new arrivals aren't the only ones caught off-guard. A lot of the locals are in need of aid too. Many buildings have lost power, both residences and public places, and the people stranded there are now desperately trying to keep warm. There's also a lot of folks still stuck outside - some trapped in cars that are quickly vanishing under snowdrifts, some who were out walking or riding bikes completely unprepared to meet with this kind of weather, and of course plenty of horses and cows who need to be rounded up and brought to safety!

After a while, emergency Guild responders will arrive to Little Love. If players so choose, they can handwave their characters eventually being picked up and brought to the DIADEM HOTEL.

LODGINGS —
Once the Guardian Alliance arrives in Little Love to offer new arrivals an explanation and transport back to CENTRAL CITY, characters will be provided with lodgings in the DIADEM HOTEL. Here, guests are offered the finest home away from home experience you could ever hope for. Their culinary staff are capable of cooking up everything from hotdogs to gourmet cuisine. The pool, lounge, and fitness rooms are all open 24/7. Given the continued influx of new guests, arrivals may find their rooms have been double-booked. Hopefully it's a room with two queen-sized beds instead of a king!

Characters are also free to roam CENTRAL CITY and get their bearings, though at the moment, with the guilds distracted and the city doing major repairs following the damage by the Confluence, there is plenty of crime to stop or cause. Characters will be given cell phones with three months of pre-paid unlimited data and assistance with setting up social media accounts on the guild networks, as well as credit cards to help them start a life here.

Player characters will be offered the chance to join the guilds. Those who join will be offered housing at one of the four major cities, with each one offering a different living experience. Characters have two months to decide if they want to throw in with one of the guilds and enjoy the perks of membership, or deal with making their own way in the world without their support.

They were helping out Red Hood with goon control.

It will be fun to have one character with too many preconceptions and one with none.

I would love to continue the CR Thad & Cass have started building! I think it has a lot of neat potential, especially with Cass also being born/raised to do Murder and having had to learn who she is outside of what was expected of her.

She is 100% willing to throw down with anyone who tries to mess with Thad based on his past. This includes other Bats.

Player Name & Pronouns: Ken (they/them)
Preferred Communication: [plurk.com profile] June_bug

Character Name & Journal: Eliot Spencer [personal profile] mydyingday
Guild Affiliation: Unaffiliated.
Character Motivations & IC/OOC Goals: Someone give this man people/things to look after. The caretaker instinct is strong and if he doesn't something to focus it on he will start destroying his enclosure. Also violence. He also needs to be able to commit acts of violence or he will start destroying his enclosure.
Plot/CR Hooks:Eliot is a deeply paranoid person who struggles to not get involved. If he runs into anything suspicious he will probably investigate. If someone's getting hurt or being taken advantage of, chances are he'll intervene. Also, despite being a huge grump, he has a big ol' soft spot for kids. He'll give them good food, show them how to throw a punch, and teach them to commit crimes. Very wholesome!

He'll teach her to mulch once the weather warms. She can complain about mixing in the chicken waste into it.

God, I love Cass, and their CR has been so great! It would be awesome if they could get to a point where they can bond over shared "I was raised for murder" trama.

And the fact she's willing to fight the other bats over him! She has my whole heart!

Player Name & Pronouns: jessi! she/her
Preferred Communication: [plurk.com profile] crowbars

Character Name & Journal: Julian Keller/Hellion [profile] contemns
Guild Affiliation: teetering on the edge of either--like, doesn't the alliance sound a little too goody two-shoes? and who the fuck sells themselves as celebrities but also selfless and acting only in the interest of others/the world? sketchy. on the other: the society bats for freedom to do what one wants within reasonable limitations, and they don't put up what's obviously a false front. ssoo.
but none isn't an answer because $$$
Character Motivations & IC/OOC Goals: julian is an x-man(sometimes) who's coming from a canon point where he's not actually dead/dying/in a coma/in the middle of an apocalypse, so he won't be shaken up much at all. he will be pissed about being dislodged from his side of the multiverse--but as far as being shoved through dimensions goes, this one isn't terrible.
oocly: i'm just going with the flow.
Plot/CR Hooks: he plays the role of a bullyjock pretty effectively, and julian does not care for (most) non-mutants. superiority mixed with a significant amount of time being hated, plus all the friends that were murdered and all the attempts to murder him due to them being mutants. he'll likely be a dick to most people when he first meets them, which may just continue for forever. he's great for antagonistic cr.

but he does also have a soft side buried under all the petty asshole crap and finding people he relates to and grows to think of as his own will eventually lead to him being very ride-or-die with them. even if he'll probably still bully them. just a little more gently. maybe.

when the blizzard hits, julian will lend a hand where he can--shoving people inside, covering broken windows, whatever looks like it needs to be done--even if it's cold as fuck and he doesn't have any resistance to it. i'm down to threading rescues! either julian lending a hand to someone who needs it, or someone eventually going: why are you out here freezing in the middle of nowhere, you loser, get inside.

and i'm open for whatever else outside of the storm!

Sure! Lana needs more teen friends, even if she's kind of a bad influence.
