Infiltrator CR Meme!

[powersthatbe]

Once you've decided what role you want to play as an infiltrator, brainwashed to believe you belong in 1930s Brooklyn, this is the place to talk with other players about shared backstory and relationships you'd like to plan out for the plot. If you're playing a plot-important role, we'd ask that you not disclose any plot secrets here, obviously, and for ease of identification we ask that characters not change their first names unless absolutely necessary for suspension of disbelief, but otherwise everything is fair game! Just make a top-level comment below with your character's name in the subject line, fill out the little form, and then tag around as you like!

Absolutely! With Hijikata as his mentor, they'll probably see each other pretty often, anyway. Especially as I get the picture they're pretty close. Armin seems to trust him a lot, anyway (more than he does most people).

[detectivewonder]

How about an eager freelancer trying to curry favor?

[blackhand]

UvU absolutely! Or catch her sneaking around. He'd be all SANSA NO cmon kiddo stop it let's go home

and then walk her home all big brother style

He'd super want her to be safe w e h she's part of the family and he cares a lot for all of them

[blackhand]

ARMIN PLS Garrett would just give him a constant B( if he joked around like they were best friends

But I am all for this it sounds exciting!

[blackhand]

Ohohohohoho, he'll keep an eye on you kiddo. He likes eager, but schmoozle him too much and he'll call you on your shit. Ambition is definitely something he enjoys.

[blackhand]

I'm almost positive Adachi's seen Garrett before, at least in the workplace or in the information the cops may have on the mobs (and mob heirs!). If not there, then definitely at the Midnight Rose. c: I'd love interaction, even if it's just witty and snarky banter. Sadly Garrett's not going to really bat an eyelash if he knows who Adachi is, you don't scare him Mr. Cop.

/pokes at skeletons

u r excused

okay but seriously

lydia is going to be all up in monet's business in a serious way since they have a shared business connection and lydia wants to make sure u don't fuck it up gurl

and also she's probably vaguely fascinated by monet, who is naturally perfect

[superieure]

and monet will be gainfully avoiding lydia's scrutiny as much as possible because bad life choices should never come to light

she has made a lot of them

also the... other mutant powers thing and she also does ballet!

[homemademolotov]

BALLET BUDDIES

[wantedittobeagame]

Ohhhh yes, this sounds fantastic. I can see them bantering back and forth, and Adachi getting massively frustrated.

[blackhand]

And sadly Garrett is just as infuriating when he's his normal self- only he has a stick up his ass and judges everyone. CLEARLY THIS WILL BE GREAT CR.

[sleight_of_hand]

wrong adachi account woops

Man, I am so okay with this. Negative CR can be just as awesome as positive CR.

Role in current universe: Gravesend mob boss
Backstory/Description of new identity: Aria T'Loak has come a long way. Exactly how she managed to complete the transition from quick-thinking, brash-talking mistress to ruthless head of the Gravesend family is vaguely obscure, but that hardly stops the rumours that her predecessor's very timely demise didn't come about entirely naturally from flying. Her vicious, utterly amoral management of the Gravesend family's assets doesn't do anything to quell them, nor in truth does she want to. On the contrary: reputation is essential, and the power to back it up, imperative -- Aria possesses both in spades. She truly is the femme fatale, the latter especially, and if the former makes a notable appearance it's safer to assume misdirection. That sort of prestidigitation makes her very much, to use a slightly older trope than the setting requests, very much the vamp, a role she doesn't entirely relish but a skill set she will employ remorselessly if it suits her.
Significant changes in personality/mannerisms: Not too many, really. She's a little less assured in her position, and therefore much more inclined to viciousness.
Kinds of CR/RP scenarios you're looking for with this plot:
Anything. Positive, negative. For the purposes of CR, Aria is likely to be found keeping an eye on business in Ocean's Place or the Midnight Rose.

One surly bodyguard at your command.

Role in current universe: Yet another aggravatingly rich person in the proto-Depression ony this one is also super British. He's unaffiliated because he wants to be friends with EVERYBODY :3
Backstory/Description of new identity: Charles is middling-old money, getting a little too old to still be properly a cad with an inheritance but he tries his hardest! He's been in America for five years and hasn't managed to lose all his money or anything, even though in typical Charles fashion he spends half his time finding causes he deems worthy to patronise. Is that the word I want? Let's say it is. Anyway, still a rich, cheerful cad, though he was affected by polio young and his legs never grew properly. He gets about with a wheelchair or braces and a cane if need be. It's alright. He's heard rumours that New York's governor is much the same so he's totally in fashion.
Significant changes in personality/mannerisms: This Charles is a bit more carefree than actual Charles, more like his earlier self, and definitely waaay more comfortable with being in a wheelchair because he kind of grew up with it. His accent is also just a bit more, uh. Bertie Wooster.
Kinds of CR/RP scenarios you're looking for with this plot: Uh, old friends and so forth, people who Charles won't stop bugging, people who know him as "that guy who talked my ear off about that random scientific topic I didn't even want to know about in the first place".
Anything Else/: LOOK AT ALL THESE ORPHANAGES AND CHILDREN'S HOMES THEY NEED MONEY OH MY GOODNESS THEY NEED MONEY AT THE HOSPITAL TOO NO I AM NOT A SOFT TOUCH.

[trapsfortroubadours]

What a colossally stupid idea, Armin. /gentle stamp of approval

[trapsfortroubadours]

Oh, I don't know. Maybe once or twice.

[trapsfortroubadours]

She's not like other girls. She's better than other girls.

[notbrichteisen]

Why hello

8D?

[notbrichteisen]

So obviously.

OBVIOUSLY.

Is Erik a person Charles won't stop bugging or have they not met yet.

Also pls. Bertie Wooster.

Guess who's also way more obviously foreign

[notbrichteisen]

Delightful. Cordial business relationship y/n/mangoes

[mentalisolate]

I thought about Charles calling the eventual killer an absolutely rotten BOUNDER and died laughing and had to. AND. I don't know, it depends! He will react about the same, cheerful overfriendly way, the main difference will be OH HALLO IT'S THE CHAP FROM LAST NIGHT.

Guess who doesn't even care if you're a German Jew or ANYTHING let him buy you a drink, sounded like things ended up really dreadful in Deutschland, SORRY ABOUT ALL THAT BUSINESS WITH THE FIRST WORLD WAR AND SO FORTH

[notbrichteisen]

Hahaa ah because being an obviously ~!foreign Jew was actually a thing that would. Make people react to you very differently. In the 30s. HOORAY.

ANyway yeah I think Erik started out like, oh. a monied person. /sneer

but then Charles does all this shit with charity and Erik is just like...jfc you're actually like this and has no idea what to do with that, haha.

BTW he is. A mechanic. Very definitely a mechanic.
