Current Characters: Joshua Preston

Character: C.E.O. Nwabudike Morgan
Fandom: Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri
Character Notes:
History:

In Earth's final century (that would be the 22nd century, for those just tuning in), Morgan was a prominient financier. He earned his fortune with a diamond mining company which he expanded into a manufacturing and mining conglomerate powerhouse, making everything from soup to nuts for the rapidly collapsing governments of earth.

Hell, he ended up owning most of Russia when it won a war against the People's Republic of China, but collapsed from the cost during the peace. Morgan stepped in and bought out most of the civil functions, making Russia a wholly owned subsidiary of Morgan Industries.

This might explain HOW he was able to smuggle himself onto the Unity... but I'm getting ahead of myself.

Bottom line: Earth was screwed after a Civilization II game where the Indian player was a bit too nuke-happy the Twelve Minute War between Pakistan and India. Or America collapsing into a bunch of nation-states like the Evangelical Fire and the Spartan Federation and... or the famines, or the New freaking Crusade Wars.

The United Nations led Humanity's final hope, the Russian player winning via Space Race the Unity project. Earth's best minds were engaged in creating a huge colony ship, capable of traveling at a tenth the speed of light, rocketing towards the vaguely Terran planet Chiron in the Alpha Centauri system.

Nwabudike personally financed the project, publicly declaring it "humanity's last and greatest hope." When Russia collapsed, he lent his manufacturing empire to the cause.

Why was anyone surprised when an extra cryosleep chamber, containing one Nwabudike Morgan, was discovered onboard? Or that when the Unity got totally boned by a micrometeor impact, that he managed to convince 1/7th of the survivors to rally under his banner, promised unimaginable riches from his corporate empire?

He's managed to keep his end of the bargain so far. After all, Morgan is nothing if not an honest businessman.

Personality:

Ayn Rand with the hypocrite and stupid surgically removed. No jokes about how little that leaves, thank you.

To be more serious, and to paraphrase him, greed and ambition are his highest virtues. He honestly beleives that self-interest is good for the species, and that it is in your best interest to promote the well-being of others. You get more wealth, after all, if you build it, and it's easier to build wealth with aid than without. Competition for limited resources is for the public good.

He likes fine wine, fine cigars, good food, classical music, and traditional art - his humble abode is full of tribal art from his native Kenya, as well as European and modern paintings... hello is that a Vermeer? (Well, no, but it is a very nice reproduction from the old Unity datalinks. So many cultural treasures, lost with Earth. A true tragedy.)

He is a friendly, if aggressive, negotiator with a gift for oratory and writing; he adopts a jokey, chummy persona for when he speaks to his shareholder citizens. And I quote him on the Longevity Vaccine: "I plan to live forever, of course, but barring that I'd settle for a couple thousand years. Even five hundred would be pretty nice."

Morgan is the C.E.O. of Morgan Industries. In game terms, he's going to attempt to run the place with a Democratic, Free Market, Wealth-oriented society (and if he lives that long, yay Longevity Vaccine, Eudamoniac) government - because he believes that's the best way to get his people and himself filthy stinking rich. An intellectually free society, with a market that is, on the whole, free of regulations, is the best way to ensure a happy, motivated, productive citizenry, in his opinion.

Other: I am taking Morgan from the beginning of a game, at Planetfall, Mission Year (that is, CE) 2100. He's going to advance rapidly through that.

Re: OTACOOOOON

[identity profile] eightofdeath.livejournal.com 2010-10-15 03:05 am (UTC)(link)
Character Notes:
History: Otacon's young life was just as weird as his old one, considering the first thing of any real importance that he does is sleep with his step-mother. And when I say 'sleep with' yes, I do mean in the biblical sense. His dad killed himself over it by drowning himself and nearly killed Hal's step-sister Emma along with him, which is when she deiced to start being a little bitch about everything. Hal ran off, dropped out of school and studied on the internet, and eventually graduated from MIT and Princeton. He briefly worked for the FBI but was kicked out because he decided to hack into their network.

Then, shit got real and he was hired by ArmsTech where he developed stealth camouflage and the titular Metal Gear. He was held hostage by Liquid during the Shadow Moses Incident before being found by Solid Snake. Snake told Hal that he fails life forever and Metal Gear wasn't made to be a mobile defense system like he'd thought, but instead a walking nuclear doomsday device. At first, Hal's a little weary about Snake because he killed Sniper Wolf (who Otacon had once again fallen for) but eventually he comes to terms with everything and helps Snake destroy Metal Gear.

Later, he founded Philanthropy and continued working with Snake so they could take down the Metal Gears that were being developed in different countries around the world because Ocelot is a motherfucker.

After finding out that Emma was working at the Big Shell Offshore Clean-up Facility and she informed him and Snake that lol another Metal Gear's being built here. And so, they (and Raiden) broke in there, busted some heads, blew up some Metal Gear ass, aaaand Otacon's curse struck again because Emma was killed by Vamp.

A while later, Otacon and Snake (I shit you not, they are this gay) adopted a child named Sunny Gurglewurglevich. They met up with some chick named Naomi and her and Otacon got a little friendly (three guesses what happens to her and the first two don't count). So, she was kept alive by nanomachines which stopped the cancer she had, but then, she injected herself with something that suppressed them, thus killing herself. Poor Hal...

Then, Snake doesn't kill himself (the one person able to withstand Hal's curse, evidently) and he and Otacon (and Sunny) run off into the sunset.

Character Notes:
History: He’s like. Seventeen. God, I remember when I thought that was old and now I’m all “Aww, you *pinches cheeks*” even though I’m. Really not all that much older than him, but it still makes me go “Oh lol jailbait”. …Two years is a huge difference when you’re under 21, don’t judge me.

And he’s a guillotine which means he doesn’t need a meister just like Giriko and blah blah they hate each other because they’re both all THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE (1)!!!! Oh yeah, and also Justin worships(spoiler alert! –ed) the guy who tried to kill Arachne. That factors into it a bit, I figure.

Justin started off as a sweet(-ish) kid who was at worst as rude as any other teenager who’s the youngest to do something (*cough*Birkin*cough*) and likes to listen to music loudly constantly. Thankfully he taught himself to read lips to counter the I CAN’T HEAR SHIT, CAPTAIN :|b

THEN SUDDENLY! A MAGNIFICENT BASTARD APPEARS! And thus, Justin’s Face-Heel Turn is complete. And he has a freaking clown as a pet now wtf. Well, okay, Clowns in the Soul Eater verse are FUCKING HORRIFYING and have a tendency to make people go whoo-hoo crazy. So yeah, evidently he actually worships the Kishin rather tha- so why did he even bother with the whole Death Scythe thing? Ugh…

So at some point between him being kinda just a little bitch and reappearing after being corrupted by the Dark Side, he managed to strike up alliance with Noah, kill off BJ, frame Stein for it, and reveal that he’s suddenly really misogynistic. And I was all OH NO YOU DI’INT. …Seriously, that came out of left field for me. At least Stein kicks his ass for that! …And. Sorta proves Justin’s point that Marie can’t. Do shit without a man helping her. Goddamn it. *facepalm*

Anyway, aforementioned alliance with Noah lets him escape through a scrap of paper before Marie has a mental breakdown over the decline of feminism and really kicks his ass. …With Stein’s help. OF COURSE. Srsly wtf Ohkubo that’s all kinds of bullshit. You only ever notice these things when you’re typing them and can really pay attention to wtf just happened. Fucking sexism just happened.

So yeah, before I go on a really long rant in the middle of my app… Justin goes to chill with the rest of Team Fail and their Shinigami wall decoration. And pretty much just stays there doing nothing other than arguing with his waifu Giriko. Actually, that doesn’t even deserve the strike out. I know it, you know it, Clown knows it and it whistles every time the U(?)ST reaches critical mass.

And then he goes to attack Medusa. Because her bullshit science is getting in the way of his bullshit religion and he’s fucking offended. I’m not even making that up. That’s legitimately the reason. …And then they fight and I honestly… I’m rereading it now for the… Fifth time, and I still don’t understand what the hell they’re talking about. ¯\(o_O)/¯

[identity profile] notanarthropod.livejournal.com 2010-10-16 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
Character Notes:
History:

Yako grew up in a pretty normal, happy family; she was an only child, and she was close to both of her parents. Her father was a workaholic, her mother was a dangerous cook who could make things like explosive bricks for dinner and still think they were normal and Yako was a strange girl that only ever thought about food and could eat someone out of house and home, but there were no problems within the family, and all three of them loved each other very much.

And then, when Yako was 16, her father was brutally murdered. Despite the fact that the man's body had been stabbed with a large number of knives, because it was a closed-room case with no criminal evidence and no apparent way for a culprit to have entered or exited the room, it was ruled as a suicide.

Yako didn't believe it for one second, but there was nothing she could do to make the case move any faster, and the police had assured her that they would delve deeper into the case and solve it soon. Overwhelmed with grief and the chaos in her mind, she went to sit at her father's shrine, and as she cried, she suddenly heard a strange voice - "Why are you crying? That's ridiculous. You should be laughing right now, bitch." And when she turned around there was a strange man leering right at her, feet planted on her father's sacred shrine, standing sideways, his arm going through the picture of her beloved father, his very presence striking her with fear.

Shocked, Yako managed to form just a few words, and the man caught on to her terrified stammering - Me? Oh, I see! You want me to introduce myself! I am called Neuro. Brain-eater Neuro. He announced himself as a puzzle-eating daemon; a resident of Hell. Yako could do little but stare in horror and try desperately to make some sense of the situation, and of the strange daemon desecrating her late father's shrine - and out of nowhere, sensing a "mystery" somewhere nearby, the daemon Neuro abruptly told her that she would serve as his assistant; a human front so that he didn't come off as too suspicious.

Half out of fear of consequences if she didn't, and half out of a morbid curiosity and confusion that was left after his strange explanation, Yako went with him to a restaurant; they had barely been sitting there for a minute when Neuro told her that very soon, someone in the room would be killed. Just on cue, a man began violently spewing blood, and keeled over, dead. It was the first of many "mysteries" to come for Yako and Neuro. It was also the beginning of a career for Yako; the two officers who were in charge of her father's case recognised Yako at the scene of the crime, and as Yako frantically tried to explain that Neuro was some sort of crazy monster, the daemon shoved his hand into her mouth and happily introduced himself as an "assistant" - the assistant to the "Great Detective Yako Katsuragi", in fact, saying that he had recently discovered her amazing deductive abilities.

Threatened by Neuro into terrified silence, Yako watched as Neuro cleared the name of an obvious suspect and pointed out the real criminal, explaining her method in detail - using Yako as a front the entire time, right up to the point that he used his daemonic powers to make her point to the culprit. She saw him use his strange daemon tools for the first time, and she saw him devour his first mystery from the human world once the case was over.

Without even having a chance to take all of this in, she took Neuro back to her house at his demand so that he could solve the mystery of her father's death. It was over quickly, with the officer in charge being the real culprit behind the murder thanks to some cheap, easy trick he employed; as was to be the usual, Neuro used Yako as a front, giving her credit for everything he said and revealed - "this is Miss Yako's theory!" - and having her point out the criminal, and he ate the negative energy that was released when the "puzzle" was solved. After that, he announced himself satisfied and said that the place had no more use to him; he left, and Yako thought that was the end of it.

[personal profile] idgiebay 2010-10-16 11:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Character Notes:

History:
» Mobile Suit Gundam Wing: Episode Zero
Episode Zero is a prequel manga that takes place at various points before the series and gives a bit more information on the backgrounds of the main characters. At the start of Quatre's chapter, we see a much different person from the sweet, good-natured pilot in the series. He's resentful and hates himself, feeling that he's a pawn that can easily be replaced because of the way he was born.

When space colonies were first developed, the harsh conditions of space led to reproductive abnormalities, so only artificial reproduction via test tubes was permitted. Fortunately, by AC 100 (100 years "After Colony" development), most of the issues were overcome, and natural childbirth was allowed again. The Winner family had been in space from the very beginning, however, which led to a predisposition to complications. As a result, 29 of Zayeed's children--all daughters--were test tube babies. The thirtieth child, Quatre, was the first and only one who was born naturally, but it was at the cost of his mother Quatrine's life. Quatre was never told this, though, believing himself to be one more obedient tool created for the sole benefit of the Winner Corporation. His purpose was to be an heir and nothing more.

Fast forward thirteen years. Feeling worthless, Quatre decided to run away to Earth. During the trip, the Winner shuttle was hijacked by the Maganac Corps, a forty-man army of mobile suit pilots. They took the shuttle hostage in an attempt to free the workers on the MO-III satellite, where they were being held without proper pay. When they contacted Zayeed Winner and explained their cause, Zayeed supported them and granted access to any of the Winner resources they might find on the satellite. He then asked to speak to Quatre, whom he was surprised to see on the shuttle. It prompted an outburst from Quatre, who explained that running away to Earth was his way of showing his father that he wasn't just a tool for the Winner family and that he could act and think for himself. Unimpressed with this reaction, Rashid, the head of the Maganac, smacked Quatre across the face and told him to have some pride in himself. It turned out that Rashid and the rest of the Maganac Corps were test tube babies as well; the fact that Quatre thought of himself as a mere creation because of the way he was born was an insult to them. "No matter what your circumstances, once you've been given the gift of life, you must live a life you can be proud of. That's the way of the Maganac."

This philosophy awakened something in Quatre. From that point, he began to change, discovering the compassionate soul he truly possessed. It started with his discovery of a traitor among the Maganac. Yuda was a double-spy for the Alliance (a coalition of most of Earth's nations, which exercised oppressive control over the space colonies) and notified them of the Maganac's coordinates. This resulted in an unexpected attack. When Rashid wondered how they'd been found so quickly, Quatre informed them of Yuda's betrayal and led the man, bound by ropes, to stand before the Maganac. Unfortunately, the ropes weren't tied very well; Yuda escaped and grabbed another man's gun, firing a shot at Rashid. Quatre attempted to intervene by jumping in front of the bullet, but it went through his shoulder and hit Rashid, anyway.

With their captain incapacitated, the Maganac set out to battle the Alliance on their own. Surprisingly, Quatre insisted that he help, wanting a chance to prove that he was useful so that he could be proud of himself. Although they were hesitant at first, Rashid told them to give Quatre his goggles and to let him pilot his mobile suit.

Character: Arthur Pendragon [livejournal.com profile] not_a_clotpole
Fandom: Merlin
Character Notes:
History:

As Crown Prince of Camelot Arthur has a lot of expectations placed on him and he places a lot on himself. He generally hides any uncertainties and fears he won't be good enough under a mask of cockiness and bravado.

Arthur idolises his father, King Uther, however in recent years they have clashed more than once over important issues especially in terms of how to tread the lower classes in Camelot and beyond.

Arthur is also close to his father's ward - Morgana, the two have a sibling-like relationship and love to tease each other, but when push come to shove Arthur will do anything (even disobey his father) to help her out.

A few months before his 21st birthday an out of towner by the name of Merlin saved him from an assassination attempt, and as a reward the King made the strange fellow Arthur's personal manservant. The two have a complex relationship which varies between friendship and relentless teasing. Whatever weirdness Merlin displays (and he displays it often) he's fiercely loyal to Arthur something which he deeply appreciates - no matter how many objects Arthur throws in Merlin's direction.

When it comes to romance Arthur's in a very precarious position, he is in love with Morgana's handmaiden - Guinevere and if the difference in class wasn't a big enough hurdle there is also the fact that his father had her father executed. Gwen doesn't seem to hold that against him, but ever practical she doesn't believe their relationship can possibly work. For his part, Arthur doesn't think it's fair to make her wait for the day when he will be King and can make whatever rules he likes. In the meantime the specter of an arranged marriage hangs over his head.

Arthur knows almost nothing about his mother because Uther refuses to talk about her, partly because of grief and partly because he is keeping a terrible secret (that is he asked a witch to use magic so Arthur could be concieved. The price for this magic was Ygraine's life - a price Uther apparently didn't know about and as a result magic of any kind is punishable by death in Camelot and just after Ygraine's death Uther instituted a Great Purge in which hundred of men, women and children were killed).

Arthur Pendragon - 2/3

[personal profile] not_a_clotpole 2010-10-17 11:15 am (UTC)(link)
Personality:

As mentioned, Arthur is cocky - or in Merlin's word a clotpole (or prat if he's feeling nice). When you first meet him he comes off as someone who is every inch a prince, destined for the crown. He is fiercely competitive, but fears others might go 'easy on him' since he is the heir to the throne which fuels doubts in his abilities.

As a Knight of Camelot Arthur places a huge amount of importance on the Knights Code of Honour - he'll never back out of a properly issued challenge even if the odds appear entirely against him.He also values fairness in so far as the lower classes are not taken advantage of and are protected (in the face of his father's more pragmatic approach of protecting and valuing the nobility). These views have become firmer thanks to his friendship with Merlin and his feelings for Guinevere.

Arthur carries around some guilt for being responsible (as he sees it) for his mother, Ygraine's death as she died giving birth to him. He wishes desperately that he could have known her and have at least some sort of memory about her.

He also wants to please his father, for most of his life in fact he thought he was a disappointment to King Uther, his father has told him nothing could be further from the truth but because of Uther's own personality (cold, angry and paranoid) Arthur sometimes finds it hard to believe.

Despite his gnerally prattish and snobby behaviour, Arthur cares a great deal for the people of Camelot and wants to be a king they can be proud of.

Other: - Spoilers!

Arthur is an expert warrior 'trained to kill since birth' in his own words. For a number of years he was Champion (and technically still is, even though a chap called Sir William holds the honours) and is skilled in swordfighting, archery, jousting, hand to hand combat and prides himself on his ability with a mace.

At present Arthur is unaware of his manservant/friend Merlin's magical abilities - although he does wonder from time to time how someone as clumsy as Merlin always manages to survive (and often save him in the process!). Arthur's own view of magic is convoluted, he is not as paranoid as his father, but due to an incident involving the 'ghost' of his mother he tends to believe that those who use magic do so only for evil purposes. (The jury's still out on whether he really did meet his mother or if it was a trick).

He also unaware of Morgana's abilities and the fact that she is plotting revenge against his father, he is further unaware of a great secret - that Morgana is Uther's daughter - the result of an affair, and thus his half-sister. Because of this Morgana has some claim on the throne, but only if Arthur was to die as well as Uther. She is being careful to keep up an act so as far as Arthur's concerned he and Morgana are close as ever.

Crona - reserved - 2

[personal profile] blackblooded 2010-10-18 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
Personality:
Apping Crona is like applying for two characters, though Ragnarok will be active less often in the game then his meister.

Crona
Crona’s gender is unknown, so this (and any sort of third-person section) will sound kind of awkward as I attempt to kick pronouns to the curb.

Nervous, jumpy, submissive, usually terrified, and soul-crushingly pessimistic (reading one of Crona’s poems made a zombie so depressed he regretted he had ever been brought back to life), Crona is described on TVTropes as “the woobiest woobie that ever woobed”.

Crona’s mindset and personality have been shaped by the actions of Crona’s mother, the witch Medusa. When Crona was very young, Medusa began conducting a variety of experiments on Crona, in an attempt to create a Kishin (because every loving mother tries to turn their child into a demon god of insanity). So, Medusa melted Ragnarok down into Black Blood, replaced Crona’s blood with this wonderful magic substance, and then (through use of such psychological torture as locking Crona in dark closets without food for days on end) killed the child’s conscience by making Crona kill small bunnies and things.

This (and some other magic spells Medusa placed on Crona) caused the child to go completely insane. Gibberingly insane. Laughing and screaming and cutting people to pieces and eating their souls insane.

Underneath the insanity though, Crona is a painfully timid individual. “I don’t know how to deal with […]” is Crona’s catchphrase, and hiding in a corner is the way to deal with most things when you don’t know what else to do (and when killing the annoyance isn’t an option). This lack of comprehending how people work and how to function in society comes from the utter lack of human contact in Crona’s life.

Ragnarok

Noisy, overbearing, bullying, tsundere, slightly perverted, and self-centered, Ragnarok is pretty much everything Crona isn’t. He bullies Crona, stealing his meister’s food and liberally delivering noogies and light punches, carrying on running commentary about Crona’s fighting skills during battles, and letting Crona take light blows (not in combat) that were meant for Ragnarok. Additionally, he enjoys the taking and eating of souls, even without Medusa’s mind-altering spells. However, he is somewhat fond of his meister (because of their shared bodies and symbiotic nature), and protects, heals, and at times even encourages Crona.


Other:


Abilities
Black Blood abilities: Blood hardens to provide protection against all by the strongest cutting attacks. Enhanced strength. Inhumanly fast healing if injured. Manipulation of blood outside of body (for example, the bloody needles attack, transforming blood splatters into flying needles, or the bloody slicer attack, in which Crona slits zir own wrist and uses that blood as a blade).

Soul Perception: Crona can see souls. Power levels, species, some basic personality traits, and if they're a Kishin Egg (have eaten the souls of innocent humans).

Ragnarok’s abilities: Transforms into broadsword, which uses sonic vibrations to act a like a buzzsaw, shredding in addition to slashing. Three different forms of his Screech attack (α, β, γ) which unleash a devastating sonic wave in conjunction with slashes of the sword. His soul resonance form results in Crona growing "wings" made of the black blood, and gaining the ability of flight.

World-note
Crona and Ragnarok are animeverse, which would put them in a different timeline from the rest of the Soul Eater cast.

Current Characters: Rose [livejournal.com profile] originaldragoon and Priscilla "Priss" Asagiri [livejournal.com profile] no_wing_knight

Character: Cinderella
Fandom: Fables
Character Notes:
History:
Everyone knows the classic story of Cinderella. Girl works as servant for her wicked step mother and step sisters. Step mother and sisters go to ball, forcing girl to stay at home with only mice as company. Fairy godmother comes to girl, magic up a ball gown, glass slippers, and carriage and coachmen from a pumpkin and mice. Girl goes to ball, meets Prince Charming, has to leave a midnight, loses a slipper, carriage turns back to pumpkin. Prince finds slipper, uses it to find girl, they marry and live happily ever after.
Well all that is true, up until the "Happily ever after" part. As it turns out, Cinderella was Prince Charming's third wife (the first being Snow White, and the second Briar Rose). He still couldn't keep it in his pants and Cindy ended up catching him with one of the servant wenches. By this time, the Adversary was starting to take over the Homelands, so Charming and Cindy escaped to one of the last fortresses for fables who wanted to leave the Homelands. Cindy agreed not to divorce him until they got to the Mundane world, thus insuring that he doesn't have to stay behind and fight.
Once in the mundane world, and divorced from the not so charming Prince Charming, she was recruited by Bigby (the Big Bad Wolf) to act as an off the records spy for Fabletown. For the next 200 plus years she spent her traveling the world, protecting Fabletown's interests, such as going after Southern spies during the Civil War, going behind enemy lines and facing Nazis during World War II, finding fellow fables who turn traitor and taking care of them, and interrogating captured wooden soldiers after the Battle of Fabletown.
When Bigby stepped down as sheriff, she started taking orders from Beast, and her duties expanded to being a diplomat to the Cloud Kingdom to help make preperations to bring down the Adversary in the Homelands. As a front, she owns a shoe store called the Glass Slipper Shoes.

Cinderella app 2/3

[identity profile] originaldragoon.livejournal.com 2010-10-18 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
Personality:
Cinderella puts up a front that she is loud, carefree, and brash fashionista, who is living a life style beyond her income since she is always taking trips. It leads other fables to think of her as shallow and irresponsible which is just fine with her.
On missions she's calm, clever and often ruthless, and has no problem with killing someone if she needs to. She is often mistrusting which has to do with the nature of her job and her own personal experiences with Prince Charming after they were married.
Due to her failed marriage, Cinderella does not believe in happily-ever-afters anymore. She also blames her Fairy Godmother for setting her up with Prince Charming in the first place. Also she holds some resentment to those who were born wealthy, since she started out poor, became a princess through marriage, and than lost it again when she fled the Homelands and divorced her husband.
She has also become a bit of a thrill seeker. Loving the danger that her job brings, and she often grins and laughs when she has to skydive.
Other:
Cinderella considers herself the best spy who has ever lived, and with good reason. While most spies only have one life time to perfect their craft, Cindy has had several life times to do so. She knows several forms of martial arts, and has knowledge on how to use different kinds of weapons. She dislikes guns, but she'll use one if it helps get the job done.
Like all fables, Cinderella is somewhat immortal. The strength of the fable depends on how popular their tale is among mundies (aka. normal humans). For some fables it would not take much to kill them, but for others they are practically near indestuctable. Since Cindy's is very popular, due to movies and story books, she could survive many fatal wounds, and have the stamina to stay awake for a few days without resting.
Unlike the other fables in Fabletown, Cindy not only has access to the stored magical items, but also to whatever technology she needs to complete her mission.
I will be taking Cinderella's canon from after Bigby stepped down as sheriff and Beast started giving her orders.

Well, apparently this forum won't let me navigate away from it until I make an entry. Better get it done and over with because I need to reserve plane tickets to Paris so that I can bust a possible traitor to Fabletown attend a fashion show.

I probably should introduce myself. I'm Cindy, and I own a high end shoe store in Manhattan called "The Glass Slipper Shoes." If you happen to come by there, you'll most likely see my employee Crispin bitchin' about how I'm always off to somewhere. I can't help it. He doesn't realize how I bust my ass so that he can live peacefully in the Mundy world all my trips are necessary for the store. Someone has to find the latest trends and make arrangements to get those trends into my store.

Well, that's enough about me. Hurry up duckies and tell me about yourselves before this website becomes unstuck and I can concentrate on getting to Paris.

Fandom: Buffy the Vampire Slayer (TV), Angel the Series (TV), Angel: After the Fall (comic), Spike: After the Fall (comic) - I'm not excluding anything that happens to him in any of these media, but his time period is ATF/comics.

Spike 2/?

[identity profile] rudolphofvamps.livejournal.com 2010-10-18 07:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Character Notes:
History: [Flashbacks show William the Bloody to actually have been a Victorian era sort of dweeb, in fact earning his name as William: the Bloody Awful Poet. This comes up several times since.]

When we first meet Spike, he's banded together with Drusilla and Angel(us), his sires. He's set on destroying the Slayer and becomes so obsessed he eventually alienates Dru. Angel abandons Spike (as he always eventually does) and Spike tries to run Sunnydale for himself after brief interludes elsewhere. In Season 4 he gets "chipped" by the Initiative and can't feed on humans any more. He drinks bag blood from here on out and takes his pleasure in beating on other demons with the "Scoobies" (Buffy's band of misfits). In Season 7 (series finale), Spike sacrifices himself to save Buffy and the others after intentionally regaining his soul. But (as Joss characters are wont to do) Spike comes back in Angel Season Five (also, the final season). Here it becomes clear the Apocalypse with capitals is looming over the horizon for all of California. This is continued in the comics**, and California becomes Hell on Earth, a different demon or occasionally human "owning" each city or township. Currency means nothing and time is irrelevant. Spike takes to calling his own brand of the passage of time "Spike Pacific Time" and "Spike minutes", "Spike hours" and so on.

His History is big and convoluted but it centers around 1) his need to never be alone, 2) his obsession with love (Dru, Buffy, and Fred/Illyria), 3) his overzealous competition with his sire, Angel, to be the best - first it was the best bad, then it was the one who Dru would love, then it was the one who Buffy would love, and now it's who can do the most good. (And look the best doing it). I'll include a link to his wiki below.

**Also in the comics, it is finally revealed more specifically (in The Adventures of Spike & Dru) that Angel killed WIlliam and Drusilla turned him - making them both co-Sires rather than one usurping the other. His relationship with both is complicated and messy. As are all of his relationships.
Personality: Spike is self-involved and emotionally a complete wreck. His cycle: get obsessed, obsess until there's no chance, bail. He's souled and does generally care about the outcome of the war. But his main priority is staying alive and keeping him and his safe and dry. He's come a long way from Buffy Season 1, the Childe of a crazy vampire Hellbent on destroying his third slayer. He's matured, and at the same time, reverted. He seems to show more of his original personality, William. When we first meet him, he doesn't even acknowledge his past but as the story piles up he finds himself unable to ignore it. Angel will always catch up to him and try as he might, he can't stop making connections he know will only end in blood or tears. He tries to act tough but his wavering self-esteem becomes evident when even mildly provoked.

Are you at least 15?: Yes
Current Characters: None

Character: Zapp Brannigan
Fandom: Futurama
Character Notes:
History: One of the greatest military officer of the DOOP (Democratic Order Of Planets), Zapp Brannigan is the captain of the Nimbus BP-1729. He is held in great respect far and wide for his great achievements, even though most of these achievements involved him sacrificing many of his men. As a result, he is largely disliked by his own crew, including his second-in-command, Kif Kroker, whom Zapp often blames for any problem that may occur.

Zapp considered himself a ladies' man, but was unable to have sex with any woman for a long time until meeting Turanga Leela, the one-eyed captain of the Planet Express ship. Taking pity on the lonely Zapp, Leela slept with him, which proved a mistake, for Zapp has lusted after her ever since and never hesitates to remind her of their one-night stand whenever they meet, hoping that she will eventually come back to him.

Zapp was once discharged from the DOOP in disgrace when he destroyed it's new $400 billion headquarters by cutting the ribbon with the Nimbus' hyperdeath laser. However, he later saved the Neutral Planet from disaster (or so he claimed), and was reinstated as commanding officer.
Personality: Zapp is incredibly arrogant. He revels in his reputation and acts dismissively toward all he considers beneath him. He considers himself to be extremely attractive and romantic, as well as a brillaint military tactician. In fact, none of these beliefs about himself are true. Zapp is utterly clueless in the ways of romance, and most women find him a pompous, chauvinistic moron. His military tactics are nearly always pointless and have little to no true logic behind them.

Zapp's stupidity is further evidenced by his manner of speech. He is fond of using malpropisms, and metaphors that make no sense whatsoever. He also cannot pronounce many words properly, pronouncing silent letters in some and treating non-silent letters as if they were silent in others. His obsession with sex also makes it's way into many of his sentences, which often contain "sex", "sexy", or other variatons of the words, even ones that don't exist.

Zapp posseses an extremely chauvinistic attitude toward women. He treats beautiful women like objects, only good for sex and his personal amusement. He believes that women are incompetant on the battlefield and incapable of great thought; sentiments that are ironically true of himself and not of the women he directs them toward.

Despite all of his obvious shortcomings, Zapp is incapable of ever recognizing his own flaws, thanks in due part to his status as a hero to the government and general populace. Reasoning with him is pointless, as he brushes off all criticism, and can even redirect it toward the person giving it. Naturally, none who truly know Zapp Brannigan actually like him.
Other: Zapp Brannigan is the enforcer of Directive B10.8:1, also known as Brannigan's Law, which states that none may interfere with an underdeveloped planet.

Captain's Journal. Stardate: July 17.

Sometimes I like to reflect on just how far mankind has come. One day, humans are living in caves. The next day, they're inventing pornography. And the next day, they create a way for people from all times and places to interact with another. It truly astounds me.

The women I have met online fascinate and sadden me. So many of them who have never heard of my name before. So many who have been deprived of the Zapper all their lives! My mission is set. I must get to healing these unfortunate women...heal them the way only Zapp Brannigan knows how! Take heart, ladies! For I have a doctrine...in love.

Third Person:

Zapp Brannigan walked onto the command deck of the Nimbus. Arms behind his back, he walked toward his young lieutenant, Kif Kroker. He gave Kif one of his usual glares, to indicate that he was in a serious mood.

"Kif! Has the new supercomputer been successfully installed yet?" Zapp asked loudly.

"We're still attempting to hook it up, sir." Kif replied, "But we're running into complications. Perhaps this model isn't compatible with the Nimbus' system."

"Once again, Kif, you show how little you know!" Zapp scoffed, "All supercomputers are made in compatibility with the Nimbus. To be used aboard my ship is the highest honor a supercomputer could ask for! Why wouldn't it make itself compatible?"

Zapp turned his back to Kip, but continued talking.

"Just as the greatest wish of all women is to make themselves compatible with me, the greatest wish of all computers is to make themselves compatible with my ship! It's common logic."

Kif sighed. "Yes, sir." he said wearily.

"Good!" Zapp replied, turning back around to face Kif, "Then back it at!"

Zapp started to walk away, then stopped and faced Kif once more.

"And bear this in mind: at the heart of all the complicated mechanics of the most complicated process, all you have to do is stick the extension cord into that little hole. If need be, stick it in and out until you're satisfied with the results and the power is on. Trying to set up this computer is a very similar process."

And with that, Zapp Brannigan retired to his quarters.

Fandom: Bleach
Character Notes:
History: Bleach wiki entry for Ichigo
Born in small town Japan, Ichigo grew up as a normal, run-of-the-mill kid…with one exception; the ability to see spirits.
For years he thought nothing of it, since it seemed to run in his family. His younger sisters Karin, and Yuzu both had nominal awareness, but an awareness that seemed to grow each year.
For the most part, he was a typical highschool student, and dealt with all the mundane issues that come with it.

Until he met her; the Shinigami Kuchiki Rukia.
It was actually mostly an accident, but the wild adventures that followed have since made him seriously wonder if, perhaps, fate might have had something to do with it? Either way, after that point his life became far stranger than he ever could have imagined, met and ha grown very close to a group of friends along the way, and is now becoming so embroiled in a war between two worlds that he doesn’t fully understand, that it is changing everything he thought he was.

He is trying to get a handle on the new changes in his life, and his abilities, namely trying to not only dominate, but tap into the power of his inner hollow more reliably, but the training he was going through in order to achieve that has thus far been difficult, and pushed his sense of self nearly to the breaking point.

Kurosaki Ichigo || Bleach || Part 2 of ?

[personal profile] savior_n_black 2010-10-22 02:50 pm (UTC)(link)
ABILITIES:
Canon Abilities: Because of the way Ichigo gained his shinigami abilities, he not only gained back his "spiritual form", his shikai, and then later learned bankai, but he also became a vizard. As a Vizard, a hybrid of shinigami and hollow, Ichigo also has access to abilities associated with hollows. Among them are the vast expansion of reiatsu and raw strength and durability that come with the bone-white mask that appears over their faces signifying that they are tapping into their inner hollow's power. Skilled Vizards, such as Shinji Hirako, have been shown to be able to use Cero, a hollow specific, highly dense blast of energy known for its devastating power and sonido (the hollow answer to shinigami's shunpo, and while the range is short, the speed this technique gives is only limited by reiatsu level ). However, Ichigo has not shown to be able to use these abilities with the exception of one time during the manga.
Ichigo has received only the most rudimentary training in the shinigami areas of combat, unlike most other shinigami who attended the Great Spiritual Academy and received formal training. Because of this, Ichigo's skills are fairly lopsided. His natural talents have made him a master of zanjutsu and his bankai gives him incredible speed. Before even becoming a shinigami, he had formal martial arts training with his childhood friend Tatsuki Arisawa. Also, Ichigo's "popularity" with his peers have seen him in innumerable back alley fights and school ground scuffles, so his hand to hand skills are proficient, but he's seen to easily succumb to the skills of other shinigami like Yoruichi Shihouin. Kidou is Ichigo's greatest weakness, as in he has absolutely no skill in it. His incredibly vast spiritual reserves should lend him to be a devastating caster, but his shoddy control of his reiatsu and his swing-first-questions-later attitude make him an unlikely candidate for using kidou proficiently.

Zanpakutou "Zangetsu" ( Slaying Moon ) Unlike most other shinigami, Ichigo has no known release phrase. It's been stated that because Ichigo has such poor control over his reiatsu, and little to no proper shinigami training, he likewise hasn't learned to seal his zanpakutou. Unlike most zanpakutou, which can be sealed into their original form, Zangetsu is always in Shikai form.

Shikai; In this form Zangetsu oversized elegant cleaver rather than a formal "katana". He has no tsuba and no proper hilt; what Ichigo holds is only the cloth-wrapped tang. The sword is as tall as Ichigo is ( 1.75 meters ) and has a black blade with a silver edge. The cloth wrapping on the tang seems to react to Ichigo's will, changing length at a thought or twining about the blade in an impromptu sheath. Ichigo has also on more than one occasion used Zangetsu's wide blade as a shield from incoming attacks. While used mostly for melee combat, Zangetsu has one known special shikai ability. Getsuga Tenshou is a slash that takes the form of a silvery blue crescent moon shape, or wave when released. Ichigo has used this technique in several different manners, such as striking the ground to create an omnidirectional blast to knock away incoming attacks, or to strike at the ground in order to upturn it, and crush whatever is in it's path.

Current Characters: N/A

Character: Fuuka Yamagishi
Fandom: Persona 3 Portable
Character Notes:
History:

* Born December 22nd, 1992, to parents coming from a long line of doctors. Seeing as they weren’t doctors themselves, they had strong inferiority complexes, which Fuuka often felt pressured by.
* Lived a very normal life until her Junior year in high school, when a group of girls bullied her and caused an accident that left her lost in Tartarus.
* Was rescued by SEES after she manifested her Persona and saved both the group and also Natsuki Moriyama, one of the girls who had initially bullied her. They later became friends.
* Moves into the Dorm after SEES offers her membership, eager to get away from her parents, and is almost immediately asked by Yukari Takeba for assistance.

Personality: Fuuka is painfully introverted and doesn’t do well in most kinds of social situations. She doesn’t speak out, and tends to be an easy target for bullying, because she just lets people walk all over her. Her shy and socially awkward nature makes it difficult for her to make friends, and her parents’ inferiority complexes push her further into her own loneliness. She doesn’t tend to whine or complain about it, however, because it’s more in her nature to just smile, shake her head, and say “I’m fine.”

Fuuka is definitely a people pleaser. She does her best to make the people she cares for happy and often forsakes herself. She believes that she has to repay debts that never really existed, she just perceived them because she felt guilty for having to worry them or trouble them. She doesn’t want to worry people under any circumstances, so she just tries to stay out of their way and be as self-sufficient as possible.

This people pleasing attitude stems straight from her caring and gentle nature. She wants nothing more than to see her loved ones happy and strives to stay connected to them, through any means possible. Despite being very unsure of herself and having low self-esteem, she always tries her hardest because she not only wants to help her friends in any possible way, she also is inspired by the amount of effort they put in. However, she often wonders in she’s really useful to anyone and constantly doubts her own ability.

Other:
-Fuuka takes up cooking because she sees it not only as a way to repay SEES for their kindness, but also as a more feminine hobby to contrast her own interests. However, much to her dismay, her cooking is horrendous.

-Fuuka takes a very great interest in machines and is an amazing computer hacker. It is thought that her hacking ability manifests from her desire to assist and stay connected to her friends. She is embarrassed about having such “masculine” interests.

-She tends to have sensory perception a little above that of a normal person. This comes from her Persona Lucia’s unique abilities. Lucia can detect and analyze the life energy emanating from all living things and (when she is summoned) gives Fuuka both telepathic and empathic abilities. These abilities only manifest very mildly in Fuuka when Lucia is not summoned.

First Person (entry type):

Does anyone know of a suitable substitute for butter? I tried olive oil...I really thought it would work, because oil is just softened butter, right? All of the cooking sites I consulted said it wasn’t a good idea, but I think oil would be a better alternative to butter, because it’s healthier and has a lot of flavor. I think the dish I made with it tasted okay. Junpei-kun seemed to like it, too, he ate it very quickly. Yukari-chan even gave all of the leftovers to Koro-chan when he took a walk by the dorm.

Still, I wonder if they liked it...Akihiko-senpai actually had to, uh...Erm...b-be sick to his stomach after eating it, but Minako-san said it was just because he’d been out in the heat for too long jogging. I really hope they liked it...

Third Person:

Fuuka was leaning against one of the counters in the Home Economics room, the setting sun bathing the room in an orange glow. Her uniform was covered in white patches of flour and her face was smudged with cream-colored batter. She sighed and turned around, opening a cabinet behind her, rummaging around the various cans, going for a container of white icing.

“I should probably use the packaged stuff...my last try on making the icing didn’t go too well...” She spoke to herself, not caring if it would make her seem weird. No one else was in the room, anyhow, no one watching her. Pulling said container out, she closed the cabinet and sighed again. She was pinning all her hopes on this cake coming out right. She’d been working on it since school had gone out for the day, and she’d been hoping for it to come out so she could serve it to the members of SEES the next day, on Sunday.

She’d planned on making something for all of them the whole week, but she had moved her hopes to many different dishes after failing on pork cutlets, miso soup, soba...and everything else she’d tried. She had decided on a cake that morning (she’d thought “After all, who doesn’t love sweets, right?”), on the bullet train to Gekkoukan, but she hadn’t had much luck with that, either. She’d wasted one whole thing of flour when she accidentally dropped it, she’d messed up the batter when she forgot to put egg in it...today just wasn’t her day.

...was something burning? She rushed over to the oven the smell came from, the one baking her cake, and nearly screamed when she saw the temperature. “I-I set it on 450 degrees? I-I-I thought I’d set it on 350!” She hurriedly pushed on her oven mitts and opened the appliance, pulling out the burning hot pan with the cake in it. Setting it down on the counter (in too much of a rush to remember that burning metal shouldn’t mix with counters), she gave the cake a few tentative examinations. It was beyond salvageable.

Both Fuuka’s heart and stomach dropped straight to the floor. She grabbed the slowly cooling pan and a random piece of kitchenware, scraping the ruined dessert into the trash. She sighed, setting the piece of blackened metal into the sink, which was already piled high with wrecked dishes. She pulled off her stained apron and mitts, neatly folding the former and setting them on the counter. The Home Ec room’s floor was covered in flour and batter and even a few shattered eggs.

She made sure she cleaned up after herself; the other poor school members who used the room shouldn't be made to suffer. Still, as she took the bullet train back to the dorm that evening, she couldn’t pull that sick feeling from her stomach. She had failed them then, just as she had that last week in Tartarus, when she was too slow on her observation and Yukari had taken a strong enough shock to knock her unconscious. No one had blamed her; in their eyes, it was all just bad circumstance. But she couldn’t shake that horrible feeling.

She had let everyone down.

Character: Daryan Crescend
Fandom: Ace Attorney: Apollo Justice
Character Notes:
History:
Daryan probably grew up in a normal home, on the seedier side of the town. He attended a public school, hung out with a rough crowd, enjoyed rock music, but still wanted to become a cop or detective. He was probably influenced by a family member that weren't his parents (I like to assume he didn't get along with his mom or dad). He did surprisingly well enough in school, and went on to the police academy to become a detective. During this time, he met a boy named Klavier, and joined him in his band (which only consister of Klavier at the time) called The Gavinners. Daryan objected to the name at first, but got used to it. Not like it mattered. As long as he could play in the band, all was good.

Daryan was first in the Criminal Affairs department, but was eventually switched over to International Affairs. He had never travelled a day in his life. Apparently, he doesn't like flying. Some think that the transfer to International Affairs was the start of the problem. He probably caught wind of a certain illegal substance (a cocoon from the country of Borginia) back then, and had tried to smuggle it in with the help of a certain Borginian musicican. The Interpol was on his ass soon enough, and eventually an agent confronted him one day at a Gavinner's concert, but was shot by Daryan with a .45 magnum, effectively injuring his shoulder. During the first day of the trial, he was in the clear, but during the second trial, everyone kinda went nuts when Lamiroir (a blind singer) pointed fingers at him. Needless to say, Daryan tried to kill her too, but she managed to hide in an extremely dark room... in a very large instrument case. She nearly died of suffocation, but she was fine the next day. He was eventually found guilty, of both the murder, attempted murder and of the smuggling of the illegal cocoon. Klavier was not pleased.

Currently residing in prison, alone, mostly because of his violent tendencies. Not to mention he was also a detective, and doesn't get along with a good handful of the inmates.



Personality:Daryan is a pretty calm and seemingly level-headed guy, but he has low tolerance for idiots or people who annoy him and can easily turn rude and cocky. One mistake, and your relationship with him will go south real quick (unless you're Klavier). He's quick to anger, prone to violence, and gives people strange nicknames. Despite all these horrible sounding personality traits, he's not a jerk without having a good reason to be, and is tolerable most of the time. He also has a passion for rock music. Some people find this especially odd, seeing as rock music symbolizes rebellion and the police symbolizes quite the opposite. But really? Conflicting symbolism? He could really give a flying rat's ass about it. He dislikes a lot of things, and the list is considerably longer than his "likes" list, such as "people touching my guitar" to "people touching my hair"... or just "people" in general. Some of his good qualities are that he's a hard worker and is fairly smart, did well in school, and stayed out of trouble... well, except, you know, latet down the line: Smuggling illegal goods, murdering an Interpol agent, attempting to kill a blind woman, then trying to pin the blame on a fragile, 14 year-old boy. Relatively good guy gone very bad.

Other:
- Owned a guitar named "Geeter", but was probably sold off in a police auction or something. He doesn't know.
- Hates it when people touch his hair
- Doesn't like it when people make fun of his hair, but he handles it surprisingly well
- His hair is down most of the time nowadays, since he's in jail. Hair gel isn't easy to come by, you know.

Character: Bayonetta
Fandom: Bayonetta
Character Notes:
History: LONG HISTORY IS LONG; I WILL SPARE YOU THE TL;DR AND BULLET HOLE THE IMPORTANT SHIT. SPOILERS FOR THE GAME BEYOND THIS POINT.

☾ OKAY SO basically there are these two witch clans- the Umbra Witches, who rule darkness, and the Lumen Sages, who watch over the light. Both clans worked together and created harmony by holding balance through night and day.

☾ Both sides foresaw over what was known as the Eyes of the World, two gems that pretty much hold amazing powers and when combined, are able to awaken Jubileus, the Creator. The Lumen Sages were given the Right Eye, and the Umbran Witches the Left Eye. It was passed down from generation from generation, never being used for there was no intention to rebirth the entire world and the universe all together.

☾ So everything's honky dorkey for everyone for a long time. No one ever went against the rules, and the clans were happy and humans and witches and sages could live in harmony. Until LOL STAR-CROSSED LOVERS between the Lumen Sages and the Umbran Witches got together between the two clans and had a kid.

☾ Because of this, it cause a breach in the clans and they dissolved into fighting, of which both of them nearly destroyed each other in the process. Who wasn't killed in the fighting was chased and hunted down by the humans through a series of Witch Hunts, dwindling their numbers to a few dozen at most.

☾ Around the same time, angels from Heaven saw this as a time to awaken Jubileus, to create a world of peaceful existence, and wiped out all but two of the witches, who seemed to disappear into thin air. Among those two were the main protagonist and her rival. Said protagonist goes into a long-ass slumber to protect her from being found by the angels. Though this isn't said as to why, one can easily tell it was for a good reason.

☾ SKIP AHEAD 500 YEARS. Bayonetta's awake and has a horrible time of remembering anything other than waking up from sleeping in a coffin at the bottom of the lake, as well as the mentioning vaguely of something called the "Eyes of the World". She kills angels as a job for a man named Enzo, to cure her boredom. In return he goes and finds clues for her about her past.

☾ During one of her ploys to bait angels, she runs into a mysterious woman who pretty much has the same powers as she does in the bullet arts, and knows her. She leaves before giving a name, or who she even is, and she somehow triggers memories within Bayonetta.

☾ Enzo tells her that he's heard some interesting stuff regarding the "Eyes of the World" in a city known as Vigrid, located in France. Bayonetta sets off for that city with haste the next day. While she's on the train towards the town, she hears a voice in her head that speaks at key moments during the game.

"Rise, my child. The time has come to awaken the Eyes of the World. Fear not, for I am always watching over you."

[identity profile] suze-querida.livejournal.com 2010-10-24 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Character: Alexia Tarabotti
Fandom: The Parasol Protectorate series by Gail Carriger
Character Notes:
History: Alexia lives in alternate, steampunk version of Victorian England. In this England, supernatural beings such as werewolves, vampires, and ghosts are common members of society alongside normal human beings. Alexia however, does not fall under any of those categories. While she passes as a normal, human lady of society, she is actually a preternatural. For her, this means that she has no soul. As one of the few soulless people in London society, Alexia can negate the supernatural powers of any other being with a touch. Preternaturals are very rare and most mistrusted by all parties, natural or supernatural. Because of this Alexia has chosen to keep her soulless state a secret, even from her own family. The only people who know are agents of BUR (Bureau of Unnatural Registry.)

Of course Alexia’s lack of a soul is not her only trouble. At the great age of twenty-five, Alexia has been deemed a spinster and very unlikely to marry. She is quite content with this role as she has never found a man who could put up with, let alone admire her eccentricities. She reads racy books left behind by her dead father. She doesn’t like attending balls. She has an unusual taste in decorative parasols and she always loves a good treacle tart. Alexia has never been one for fitting into society.

Most recently she has had quite a few run ins with Lord Maccon, Alpha of the London werewolf pack and BUR agent. Since London society holds little entertainment for Alexia, she has a tendency to poke her nose into BUR affairs even though it is again BUR rules for a preternatural to be an agent. At the point I am taking her from Alexia was just attacked by a rogue vampire. Out of defense she stabbed the vampire with the tip of her parasol, killing him. This brings Lord Maccon into the picture as they investigate the origins of the unregistered vampire.

Character: Rachel
Fandom: Baccano!
Character Notes:

History:

As the daughter of a railroad engineer, Rachel has a natural affinity for trains. Because of an incident when she was a child, however, her love is at war with deep-seated resentment towards the railroad industry, which wrongfully blamed her father for a horrific accident and eventually drove him to ruin. Rachel never pays for a ticket because of this, as her way of sticking it to the railroad companies, and instead, she rides the rails as a stowaway. By the time she boards the Flying Pussyfoot in 1931, her feelings haven't changed.

Rachel works as a freelancer for the Daily Days, a firm in the business of buying and selling information while working under the guise of a newspaper. On her way to the headquarters in New York, she hitches a ride on the Flying Pussyfoot and finds herself in the midst of a gang war. Three different factions (the Russo family; a group of bootleggers from Chicago; and the Lemures, a group of train robbers loyal to Huey Laforet) butt heads in the dining car over who gets to take the train hostage. During the commotion, Rachel manages to sneak through a window and takes refuge beneath the train cars. There, she witnesses the Rail Tracer, a legendary monster who kills train passengers), murdering some of the terrorists and a young boy. She's soon spotted by the monster, who crawls beside her under the train cars and whispers in her ear, prompting her to scramble away in terror.

Later, she takes on a more active role and ends up rescuing a few hostages (notably Natalie and Mary Beriam, the wife and daughter of Senator Manfred Beriam respectively), even breaking her leg in the process after kicking in a window.

When the events aboard the Flying Pussyfoot come to an end (with the majority of the passengers making him home safely, thankfully), Rachel finally reports to the Daily Days headquarters and informs the president of what happened, stating her belief that the Rail Tracer is a conductor based on what he whispered to her ("Ticket, please"). The president then reveals that the Rail Tracer is actually the conductor Claire Stanfield, the Gandor family's best assassin, also known as Vino, who's said to kill with his own sense of justice. Rachel is bewildered at that, recalling how Claire murdered the young boy on the train. In response, the president sends her out into the city, where she runs into Czeslaw and Ennis, the former of whom happens to be said young boy.

Rachel is obviously confused, but Czeslaw explains that he's an Immortal, unable to be killed no matter what damage is done to him. Their conversation is interrupted by Claire, however, at which point Czes flees in terror. Bemused by the boy's behavior but only for a moment, Claire tells Rachel that he came to talk to her. The two of them go to lunch, where Claire proceeds to ask Rachel for love advice.

During the last episode of the anime, it's shown that Senator Beriam had given Rachel a rather large sum of money as payment for rescuing his wife and daughter, although he practically threw it at her in a most disrespectful way. Offended, Rachel tried to return the money, but when she saw Mary Beriam smiling and waving at her, she didn't have the heart to confront the senator about it. Instead, she proceeded to use the whole amount to buy as many train tickets as possible, which she then threw away, obviously satisfied at paying her debt to the railroad industry.
idgiebay: ([SE] Maka - mind is blown)

RACHEL [2/2]

[personal profile] idgiebay 2010-10-27 03:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Personality:

Rachel is a strong, young woman. She's quiet but not shy, staying silent in an effort to be aware of everything around her. It serves her well, as she often goes unnoticed in a crowd, able to slip away, undetected. She's fairly neutral when it comes most things, although that could be because it's her job not to become directly involved. During the incident aboard the Flying Pussyfoot, however, she goes against what's expected of her and actively rescues people, claiming that she doesn't want to see anymore bloodshed.

She tells Claire that she's not a normal girl but doesn't go into detail. One look at her and you'd see she's not what one would expect a young woman from the early 1930s to be, though. She covers herself nearly from head to toe in a long sleeved shirt, pants, and gloves, and hides her blond hair up in a bandana. She may even be able to pass as a boy at first glance. She could also have been referring to her personality with that comment, as she doesn't go out of her way to be particularly friendly or social.

Other: While arguably the most normal character in the series, she still manages to kick a lot of ass!

First Person (entry type):

[PRIVATE]

Every time I think things have settled down, life throws another curve ball. Apparently, there's a community out there, some sort of... nexus that connects several different worlds. Just thinking about it makes me doubt my own sanity, but unless it's an elaborate hoax (how that would even be accomplished, I don't know) or I truly am going crazy (a distinct possibility these days), I can't deny the evidence. Responses from other people show up in my journal, addressing me directly, and I'm sure I didn't write them.

This is something that the paper will want to know about, but how to bring it up... For all I know, the president might already be aware. It certainly wouldn't surprise me.

I think I'll keep an eye on things for now. Who knows? Maybe I'll wake up tomorrow, and this will all have been a dream.

Third Person:

A young woman entered the bar, stopping just inside the entrance to survey the area before heading towards the back. She looked boyish, her blond hair hidden beneath a dark green bandana, and nearly every inch of her body hidden by dark clothes, almost as if she were trying to remain inconspicuous among the many men who populated the bar. Without a word, she took a seat at a high-backed booth in the back and looked around, perhaps waiting for someone or something.

She remained quiet for the next several minutes, except while ordering a glass of water and a bowl of peanuts from the waitress. When it seemed as if nothing would come of her patronage, the slight movement she made as the door to the bar opened may have been apparent to anyone watching closely.

In walked three men in suits. They didn't acknowledge her, but her eyes lingered on them while they made their way to the back of the bar, only tearing away when they took their seats a few booths down.

When the waitress brought her water and peanuts, she nodded a brief thank you and went about her business, apparently paying no mind to the men anymore.

To trained eyes, however, it may have appeared that she was listening quite intently.

This was Rachel, and it was her job to be mindful of everything around her, to watch, listen, and gather information while remaining as discreet as possible.

2/I'M SORRY THIS TURNED INTO A NOVEL

[personal profile] vivi 2010-10-28 05:55 am (UTC)(link)
History: Willow was born in Sunnydale, California to neglectful, rarely present parents. She went to school and got amazing grades, became best friends with Xander and Jesse, and was generally a social outcast that was relied on for homework help. She was shy, Jewish by heritage and not devotion, had a lightly sarcastic sense of humor, and had a long-held crush on Xander.

Then Buffy Summers, the Slayer, transferred in from L.A., and Willow and Xander found out about the supernatural underbelly in their hometown. Jesse was shortly turned into a vampire and killed, and after seeing this, they knew they couldn't go back to their old way of living. They both decided to help Buffy in fighting the undead - an unprecedented decision objected to by her Watcher, Giles (who nevertheless came to see the merit in it years later, to say the least). Willow takes her place as the assistant researcher of the group and the computer person, hacking into school records, police databases, and morgue files to help them solve the monster mystery of the week. Although initially hesitant to break rules, she soon comes to do it without thought due to her desire to save lives. Buffy defeats the Master and fulfills a prophecy at the end of the season, and the structure of the group is further cemented.

In season two Willow's character undergoes several changes. She finally decides to move on from her unrequited crush on Xander and starts dating Oz, a mellow lead guitarist in a local band, who turns out to be a werewolf. They met while being scouted by the government for a job. She also develops an interest in magic after seeing what Giles and computer teacher Jenny Calendar can do with it, and when Angel loses his soul, performs the spell that re-ensouls him, a hefty bit of magic. Buffy, coping with everything else that happened that year, leaves Sunnydale for the summer; while she's gone, Willow and Xander try to keep a lid on the Hellmouth in her place.

Eventually she returns and season three finds the Scooby Gang seniors in high school. Faith, the next Slayer, arrives in Sunnydale and kicks off the major plot of the year with her involvement with the demonic, immortal mayor. Willow and Xander kiss at the homecoming dance despite both of them already dating someone else, and Spike, a lovelorn villain from the previous season, returns and kidnaps Willow, threatening to kill her and Xander if she doesn't perform a spell for him. While he goes out to get supplies, Xander and Willow make out again, and are caught by their respective boyfriend and girlfriend trying to rescue them. Oz eventually agrees to forgive her.

Other exciting things in season three include the wish-granting demon Anyanka playing havoc with alternate realities, Willow meeting a gay, vampire version of herself, and joining a local coven only to be persecuted by her own mother. The Scoobies' high school graduation is interrupted by the aforementioned mayor turning into an enormous snake, and them blowing up the school to get rid of them.

Despite being accepted at several Ivy League colleges, Willow enrolls at University of California Sunnydale alongside Buffy. Spike returns again and is captured by Initiative, a group of government-run commandos that are trying to keep a lid on the demon population in Sunnydale. They put a microchip in his brain that prevents him from harming humans, thus starting his long and arduous transition to the white hats. Meanwhile, Oz becomes attracted to a singer from another band, and discovers that she's a werewolf. The other werewolf attacks a jealous Willow, but is killed by Oz in his wolf form - Oz, convinced he's too dangerous to be around, leaves without expectation to return.

☈ Neuro leaves Hell because fuck Hell, man. All the good yummy mysteries were all gone! So, birdman leaves hell and comes to the real world to devour mysteries.

☈ He finds a delectable mystery in the form of Yako's father's murder. But, before he can consume that mystery, he decides to consume a few more to get a taste of things.

☈ Due to the fact that demons can't show their true form or any inclination that they are from Hell, he takes on Yako as his "cover" and basically transforms her into A SUPER AWESOME DETECTIVE THAT IS SO SUPER FAMOUS, when really he just needs her to point to the culprit and take any suspicion off him.

☈ They solve mysteries before NEURO DESCENDS UPON YAKO'S FATHER'S MURDER. Where the police couldn't figure it out, Neuro figures it out in a half hour. After he solves Yako's father's murder, he eats the mystery and sends the murderer into his own personal hell. Such a charming guy, huh?

☈ When Yako thinks she's in the clear, THERE HE APPEARS AGAIN. Neuro suggests (read: forces her to) start her own detective agency. They get a building from the mob when Neuro solves a mystery from them and they collect Slave #3: Godai.

☈ They solve a case of a stalker and a superstar that sends them into superstardom.

☈ Several cases later, this guy decides that hey, it would be great to create a super human program named HAL and create a virus/program that inherently brainwashes people to bring out the most violent in them. By this time, Neuro is running on empty when it comes to his demonic powers and Yako takes over and kicks ass.

☈ Phantom Thief Sai takes it and starts brainwashing people, including Yako. This pisses the hell out of Neuro (who usually doesn't give a damn about the people he apprehends), because what the hell, he's the only one allowed to abuse Yako AND NOT AT ALL BECAUSE HE STARTS TO LIKE THE BOTTOM FEEDING SLUG. But they're ~*~bond~*~ (and a series of logical deductions), he figures out which one is Yako and he kicks ass. But, he's victoryblocked by an asshole named Sicks.

☈ LONG STORY SHORT, there's this guy named Sicks wants to destroy humanity and that positively angers Neuro (which is scary as hell - GET IT? GET IT? please don't reject my app because of that) because humans create mysteries and Neuro needs his food source to survive. After their fight, Neuro has fully exhausted his demon energy for a while.

☈ Neuro goes back to the demon world 8(

☈ Neuro comes back 8)

Meru Otanashi || Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei || Part 2 of ?

[identity profile] youvegotmeru.livejournal.com 2010-10-30 09:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Character: Meru Otanashi
Fandom: Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei
Character Notes:
History: Meru was born into a ridiculously rich family to an extremely loving father who doted over her and tried to provide her with whatever she wanted. Despite this, she entered state schooling in Japan where she seemed to live most of her young life happily.

However, one day in the playground two young boys commented on how Meru's voice sounded "weird". She was so shocked by this statement she refused to use her voice unless absolutely necessary. Indeed, for the majority of her life she hasn't spoken beyond the occasional grunts or sighs.

At some point, she was given a mobile phone. She gave herself the username of "hazukashigariyasan", meaning "full of shyness". Somewhere along the line, this is where her abusive alter ego started up. Instead of speaking to people, she communicated through abusive text messaging insulting people's appearances, intellects and their character roles.

When she moved up to high school, she entered class 2-H taught by Nozomu Itoshiki, a suicidal man who often skipped classes, jumped off the building in times of despair and did very little teaching.

In this class she met the people she could loosely classify as friends. All of these people are most certainly insane however and Meru just contributes to the general sociopathy of the class full of young serial killers, nude immigrants and one exceptionally normal person. Like all of the girls in the class, she developed a crush on her teacher as much as she would not like to admit.

Her adventures in the class are pretty strange and since the canon has no real timeline or fourth wall it's hard to say which events did happen. She has turned into a magical girl, is apparently possessed by the Devil in some degree and has had Hatsune Miku audition to do live voice acting for her. The canon is extremely loose but I will be chalking most of these events up to the bizarreness of the world she lives in.

Being a typical internet troll, it's hardly surprising she would find a community like DramaDramaDuck.

Character: Francis Bonnefoy (France)
Fandom: Axis Powers Hetalia
Character Notes:
History:
There’s only one constant in France’s history: England. The only thing keeping this incredibly old nation going is mutual antagonism with him. Considering that their relations started with France invading and halfway mentoring him, it’s not entirely surprising. For good or ill, and usually ill, nobody affects France quite as hard. England has a bad habit for taking things France loves away, whether it be Jeanne d’Arc or almost all of Canada. To be fair, France would do the same if given the chance, and if you really pay attention to the American Revolution, may have already done so.

Of course, since helping out America nearly bankrupted him and directly lead to his revolution, we can safely file this away under “karma”. His revolution, the first of many, wasn’t glorious or beautiful or terrible or horrifying. It was all of those things and more. He took the ideals of the age around them and applied them to the point they started breaking under the weight. The stress nearly undid him completely, and it took years, even decades, for him to regain any sense of balance, of calm, of being France. And even then, there were more revolutions, more attempts to drastically change everything only to end up in almost the same place. Confound it all, he loves it though.

France was enamored with North Italy, and even pitched in raising him now and then, but he was always more of a big brother than anything else. For all the talk of Prussia, Spain, and France being the bad friends trio? Any hope of that went out the window around the time of Napoleon, and got even worse around 1871, when Prussia became Germany and went to war with our old friend France. France lost, and even then they were so embittered that they decided to shun France from the rest of Europe. Probably by spreading vicious, and absolutely true, rumors. Oh, and also that he should be hung up by his figgin.

And this isolation from Europe lead to something unbelievable: an alliance with England, and later still with Russia. It appeared that there was a general sentiment of “I’m the only one allowed to defeat you.” And so they became allies, while still not getting along very well, and all was well until everyone went to war multiple times in a row. World War I was not very much fun. France nearly got levelled, Austria and Hungary got divorced by the end, and Russia had to quit in the middle due to revolution. And France, France was so angered by Germany, and what he’d done to his country, that he created his own worst enemy in his victory.

Twenty years later, France fell to Germany. It was so desperate, so fast, so vicious, that France even tried to marry England to prevent it. Which, obviously, didn’t go through, but I digress. You almost couldn’t call it the battle a fight at all. Things could be said, about cowardice, and surrender, and flashy uniforms, and Vichy, and Resistance, but those things are ugly, and France never liked thinking about ugly things. Luckily, Germany took a play from Napoleon’s book and went to invade Russia. Luckily, England had a channel, and a place to broadcast from, and friends in high places. Luckily, America was a hero, and liked airplanes, and really, really wasn’t the kind of person to make angry. Luckily, Italy sucked at war even worse than France did. And it was all very lucky, except for Russia kicking Germany’s ass, because some things come standard.

And so some things remain constant. France still spends an inordinate amount of time trying to get other countries out of their clothes. France still spends every minute possible antagonizing England, because some things never get old. France still makes allies and breaks their hearts as much and as often as he likes. France still recognizes Canada, or at least can tell him apart from America, even if he wishes Quebec would leave him alone. France still remembers Jeanne. France still carries his past with him, wherever he goes, the beautiful parts and the ugly parts, because some things you don’t forget.

Personality:
France, or Francis if you’d like, has absolutely no shame. This explains quite a lot. There’s no delicate way to put it: he’s a slut and doesn’t take any great pains to hide this fact. France doesn’t just love (well, a certain kind of love) other countries, he’s also a little bit in love with himself. He wants to think that everyone loves him, and if they don’t, they will, and therefore with a little bit of convincing and the proper lighting, he can get anyone into bed with him. His actual success rate is mixed, to say the least, but his reputation has to come from *somewhere*, and he takes great pride in it.
