CR meme!

[powersthatbe]

We have some time to kill before the jaunt starts, a pack of new characters, and a sizable gap since the last time we did this, so: How about a CR meme? Fold in plans for the jaunt if you like, stick to characters-as-themselves plotting if you'd rather. Either way, here's a chance to find some potential new connections!

<b>Character:</b> NAME ✥ CANON ✥ <i>OU/AU/PG</i> ✥ <user name="JOURNAL"> <b>Character Info:</b> Give us the thirty second summary of your character, so people unfamiliar with canon can know the basics at a glance. <b>Patron Arcana:</b> Which Arcana marked your character, and do other characters know this? In case you want to build CR with your fellow Chosen. Details about their specific Mark optional. <b>Upcoming Plans:</b> Anything you have planned for your character - long-term plans, or specific plans for upcoming events. If you're looking for people to help you with those plans, toss that in too. <b>CR/Plotting Desired:</b> What would you like to do with your character in the future? Be as loose or specific as you want - negative CR, positive CR, directions you want to go with character development <b>Offered Skills:</b> Teaching new skills is a great CR builder, so let us know what your character might be willing to offer. <b>Wanted Skills:</b> Learning new skills is also a great CR builder, so let us know what your character might be looking to pick up. <b>Additional Notes:</b> Anything else!

[leftbehindagain]

Character: Naoki Konishi ✥ Persona 4 ✥ AU ✥ leftbehindagain
Character Info: Lost his sister to supernatural bullshit and struggled with grief for a good while. That part's true no matter what; in his AU, he got to help his oldest friend figure out what the hell happened and put his sister's killer in jail. (And beat up a death goddess, like you do.) Closing in on four years in Liminal Space. While no one's catching up to Armin any time soon, he's one of the stronger psychic-skills folks.
Patron Arcana: Death! So far he's still the only one who's said anything in public about it. He's inclined to give the Arcana the benefit of the doubt so far; if there's ever evidence fighting them directly is both necessary and wise he'll sign up for that fight, but so far he doesn't have that evidence.
Upcoming Plans: Naoki's going to be half-infiltrating the upcoming jaunt (first Purgatory was his first infiltration, but he's desperate for answers himself, so!). The Tech Duinn branch of Yomi is hiring - Peregrines especially welcome, payment in Real Money!
CR/Plotting Desired: Overall I'm leaning more positive than negative in the CR department; he has plenty of people to salt about as things stand. XD Mostly, though, I'm playing it by ear. He could use some new friends, especially with Kanji gone for the time being.
Offered Skills: here! Some jaunt skills that he has aren't teachable (those are labeled on their skill blurbs), and there's a couple psychic skills he won't teach. Otherwise, say the word and I'll see what I can do.
Wanted Skills: I've hit a spot for the moment where teaching proofs are tricky because not a lot of people have what Naoki's working toward (Scramble Skill and prereqs); that said, once that's out of the way I want lots of hybrids for him, so people to help noodle those would be great!
Additional Notes: Liminal!Yomi is one of those rare created spaces that is not and will never be permanent, since he doesn't want people screwing around with alchemical alcohol when he's not there. If I haven't topleveled on a mingle it's probably not available; when I do I try to mention (but if I haven't, feel free to ask).

[fruitknife]

Character: Shinjiro Aragaki ✥ Persona 3 Portable ✥ OU ✥ fruitknife
Character Info: Recovering trashfire who spent two years self-flagellating over the manslaughter of a kid's mother, culminating in letting said kid try to kill him and taking a bullet for him. Shinji has not been in the same neighborhood as Okay for quite some time. He's just passed two years in Liminal (and come out of a second dungeon), over which time he's gotten tired of being sick all the time, and started considering that maybe possibly he perhaps deserves nice things in his life and would like to have them again. (Also, he has a dog, because Koromaru is the best.)
Patron Arcana: Emperor! He has told exactly one person (Minako) and generally rejects the concept of teamwork, so GOOD FUCKING LUCK GETTING HIM TO COOPERATE. As for the Arcana in general: This whole thing is bullshit, but he's getting more time with one of his best friends out of the deal, which makes it slightly less bullshit. Otherwise he doesn't really care.
Upcoming Plans: Investigating the upcoming jaunt. It occurs to me Royal Treatment is going to be pretty ridiculous in this setting.
CR/Plotting Desired: On the one hand, he's a grumpy asshole. On the other, there's pretty much always fresh-cooked food available in his created space. Also Koromaru bridges many gaps. Thing can go in lots of directions and I'm pretty okay with all those directions.
Offered Skills: here! Please note that he's told exactly one person who wasn't around for Olympus those damn grapes exist at all and she's gone now; if Immortal Ichor is a skill gain you're after, you have one HELL of a long road to get it.
Wanted Skills: ...Also tricky in that Shinji's mainly building up psychic-tree shit at the moment and only trusts Thorne with poking at his brain (he'd also trust Minako but she can't psychic).
Additional Notes: Shinji's teaching style is likely to boil down to 'so do the thing, ain't that hard.' This is not for everyone.

[sharpshooterpaladin]

If Lance ever finds out Shinji helped Shiro he's definitely gonna want to thank him for that. Otherwise he's probably going to find him really difficult to get along with, which I think could be funny? Maybe they could run into each other jauntside?

Nea's long haired female trio

[callyourname]

Wait for it, gonna post all three in their own comments under this as soon as I get them done one by one.

[callyourname]

Character: Mikasa Ackerman ✥ Attack On Titan ✥ AU ✥ callyourname
Character Info: Gloomy brat with a constant deadpan / Emotionless Doll face unless you happen to see her in the company of those, who can go through her walls... One of those nice on the inside once you get to know her type, doesn't trust anyone or anything easily but there may be a heart of gold hiding somewhere. Big sister / mothering type to some, very overprotective if you get to either side side of that with her... She actually cares a lot but what is being good at showing that often?? Really bad social skills most of the time. She's also an extremely fast terrifying canon prodigy, worth of at least a hundred regular soldiers in the beginning of the series back home and also a merciless killing machine if the situation needs that. Mikasa has something like eidetic memory, you literally can't make her forget anything or anyone because she's also doubly immunute to all kind of memory erasing stuff. She doesn't brag about her skills though. Oh and ooops she TAKES JEALOUSY TO EXTREMES / GETS EXTREMELY JEALOUS EASILY!

She's from a world best described as Titan Hell, where she and other soldiers kill giants called Titan in a sports game, where Titans try to eat all the humans! So she's pretty used to shit happening all the time if anyone ever wonders why her reaction is usually a no reaction at all (well, aside from that being an Ackerman thing). ... She's also become a werewolf here but unlike Jean, this girl stays sane and calm as ever, so no one really needs to worry about insane Ackerwolf going around during full moons on jaunts!

The cast (+ people they invite to live with them) have their own house, so she lives there and she's been with Jean for almost a year now after a fast af swift in relationships for reasons that we don't really talk about -- but let's just say she was dating with Eren for a long time here and now she's not with him anymore, we had our reasons for all of this happening but that's that. It's also why she's AU, me and Jean's player added some shippy AU memories to them and we've dropped the canon anyway... So now we are just making our own AU, that goes much better than that series.

She's been around for years, she's possibly not as gloomy as before and more open about showing feelings and everything but it's a slow process anyway.

Patron Arcana: Empress. Details of her mark are private info but the fact that she's marked by Empress comes up sometimes.

Upcoming Plans: She'll be Investigating on the jaunt, I want Wound Regeneration from there for her if anyone wants to help with that? She'll be suspicious of everything, will probably be in a not so good mood because Jean is on the walkabout but she'll manage ... hopefully!! Come say hi, she won't bite but her sarcasm or other bratty comments might chew!

CR/Plotting Desired: Forever tired of too negative CR for her these days unless it's on the jauntside of things where at least one of us is infiltrating, so looking for positive or just neutral things outside of jaunts instead! New friends??? New sibling-like people?? Let her babysit?? Come meet Sakura? Spar with Mikasa? Nothing shippy since she is monogamously completely devoted to Jean, not that we're against infildating someday but that's a different story.

Offered Skills: ... She's the worst teacher and picky on what she'll even teach but she could teach Water Elementalism, Fire Elementalism, Metal Elementalism (those are similar-ish to bending from the Avatar series), Liminal Manipulation I & II, Sensory Livestreaming ...or accidentally give your character one of these syndromes/viruses.
Wanted Skills: uh, she tends to ask from people she knows aka she's picky... |: but on the other hand, I'm not against it and more liminal / psychic / magic etc, she's pretty open to stuff and tends to learn things fast.

Additional Notes: She can turn into a husky, black panther, black colored wolf, sylveon-like pogemon and an orca based mermaid ... and also a into a pink haired magical girl! Mikasa tends to keep her red scarf with her with her form changes to make it easier to tell that it's her. She has a neapolitan tiger cub Sakura from that magical girl world with her all the time, Sakura can talk to anyone with telepathy but she doesn't hear telepathic answers back to her! The cub is friendly, social and adorable. Also as said above, she's a werewolf but won't bite it to anyone. She's also a Red Mage but that's........... either i do something with it or drop that skill and get her somewhere else but i don't think i really want to drop it, ooops, she's working on complicated feelings from it either way. Aaaand she's engaged to Jean and her hair is usually really, really long these days even if it doesn't show on icons.

[grimjeaper]

Character: Barry Bluejeans ✥ The Adventure Zone: Balance Arc ✥ OU ✥ grimjeaper
Character Info: Looks like a mid-fifties-aged dad, actually a hundred-and-sixty year old interdimensional refugee who spent most of that time trying to kill the eldritch abomination-type world-eating monster chasing them, a powerful wizard, a lich, a grim reaper and a huge fucking nerd. Been in Syn for ten months now!
Patron Arcana: High Priestess! Saying that he does not have a hugely positive opinion of the Arcana is actually somewhat incorrect: he is fully aware that they are more powerful than he is, along the lines of gods - but he just spent a hundred years being chased by same. The recent, successful mission to murder Tower was spearheaded by him personally.
Upcoming Plans: Barry is going to be infiltrating and a Plot Role in the upcoming jaunt - one of the Princes of the Market and a right fucking bastard.
CR/Plotting Desired: Between orchestrating Tower's murder and being a right bastard this coming Jaunt, I have a feeling his CR is going to go downhill a bit. Which I'm happy to play out, if anyone has more specific plans!
Offered Skills: Here! Barry has a surprisingly broad skill base for such a short time. He's collected and can teach pretty much every GRID skill that's not an actual item or Plot Skill, and also has the capability to create brand new Functions; is an obscenely powerful necromancy wizard, master pianist, has multiple PhDs and has spent various lengths of time across a year on one hundred different worlds, so he's racked up a lot of worldly experience.
Wanted Skills: He will readily and happily learn anything that anyone is willing to teach him! No knowledge is wasted! this means I don't have any current plans, sobs
Additional Notes: Barry doesn't die like a normal person; instead, his red-robed ghostly lich form comes out of his body, and due to Barry having shitty-ass luck, this is a more common sight than should reasonably be expected.

Gail's PCs

[scarsolderthanyou]

Character: Stone of Indigo Cloud ✥ Books of the Raksura ✥ OU ✥ scarsolderthanyou
Character Info: Grumpy old man with gray skin and one blind eye who sometimes looks like a big slightly blurry dragon dude. He's kind and cares for people, he's just irascible and, well, very old so he can usually get away with it. He's got a spirit companion from QC who is sometimes a giant dinosaur-bird and sometimes a small, tortoiseshell, angry cat, and he can tell how old you are if he looks hard enough. Oracle of Age, and all that.
Patron Arcana: Hermit, and he doesn't hide it, though it's hard to see by accident unless you see him sitting/laying down. The mark is on the bottom of one foot, and while he never wears shoes, he is usually standing on it.
Upcoming Plans: The next Jaunt is gonna be a doozy for him, because he's gonna be a general of hell. Lawful evil, kinda. This is like the opposite of Stone's personal alignment, so it'll be a lot of fun, and rattle him a bit after the fact. That's my only real big plan right now, I'm just taking it one Jaunt at a time.
CR/Plotting Desired: He needs to adopt everybody. And boss people around. And swat backs of heads. Really, I'm open to positive and negative CR, and I'm happy to work with other people's ideas, too.
Offered Skills: Stone's skills are here and while he might not be great at it, he's willing to try teaching anything he knows he has.
Wanted Skills: After a shadow monster clawed its way out of his chest on the last walkabout, and a bunch of people then used liminal healing on him, Stone is interested in working up towards liminal healing himself. This is a huge undertaking, so I'm open to lots of steps along the way being taught to him. Someone try to teach him Wardrobe Manip when he doesn't remotely care about his clothes, I dare you.
Additional Notes: He's happy to fly people around, too, if anybody wants to experience flying.

Character: Richard B. Riddick ✥ Chronicles of Riddick ✥ OU ✥ itsananimalthing
Character Info: Badass asshole escaped convict from a sci fi movie series, who can see in the dark, and who now has an infant daughter making him slightly less badass and slightly more panicked. Practically an AU at this point, the guy who was once a scary, dramatic, murderer extraordinaire has been humanized quite a bit. He has a permanent forge in liminal space and can make you a magic weapon if you want one, and he thinks you won't kill yourself with it on accident.
Patron Arcana: Moon, and he gave up hiding it years ago, since the mark is a big ole scar on the back of his left hand.
Upcoming Plans: Dealing with a slowly-more-psychic infant and protecting people, mostly, at this point.
CR/Plotting Desired: I'd love to get him to actually be an asshole at somebody, like make an effort to scare them (and have it work), but that's harder to do when you're carrying around a wide-eyed baby on your back or chest XD Negative CR welcome. So are people going gaga over the baby, really. I'm pretty open.
Offered Skills: Riddick's skills are here. He's been around a long time and has a lot. He mostly focuses on working with fellow vets to help them get memories of pre-Mobeus back, since he has at least of the gist of all his back at this point, but he's happy to help people out, particularly with psychic stuff.
Wanted Skills: Right now his skills are focused on keeping his infant daughter contained once she's old enough to start getting into trouble. If you have an idea, toss it at him, he will soak it up and use it on her when he needs to.
Additional Notes: Babysitters always welcome, though he has a lot already... XD

[letsgetdowntobismuth]

Character: Bismuth ✥ Steven Universe ✥ OU ✥ letsgetdowntobismuth
Character Info: Originally created to be an architect/construction worker, after some several thousand years (if not tens of thousands) she got asked, literally for the first time in her entire existence, what she wanted to do. And that single thought of free will was enough to spur her into joining a rebellion for the freedom of planet Earth, as their armour- and weaponsmith. Has been in Syn for juuust over five months, but! She is also a pre-Moebius veteran, and was around for several jaunts between Red Dirt and Moebius, dungeoning towards the tail end of the latter. She is currently the tallest person in Syn in their base humanoid form.
Patron Arcana: Sun! Typically maintains a negative view of the Arcana, since she's been through one of their goddamn bullshit punishment jaunts. She's gonna be mad if she picks up any Favour skills.
Upcoming Plans: In the more immediate future, she'll be infiltrating on the coming Jaunt as a fallen angel with a forge who is still trying to make enchanted weapons, so those will be an option for anyone who wants them! More long term, she's going to want to keep working on her memories from before Moebius! (And for my own amusement, I want her to find out she can fuse with Hecatites)
CR/Plotting Desired: I need to get more started with more Moebius vets, but that is entirely my own fault for being dumb 8D If she could get people that could handle sparring with her, that'd be great as well, but otherwise generally just MORE FRIENDS!
Offered Skills: Bismuth would happily try and teach people smithing, but her methods leave something to be desired. Not everyone is lavaproof.
Wanted Skills: Pre-Moebius skills!
Additional Notes: If you have a Hecatite or rock-adjacent form change, let's talk.

[claudiometer]

Character: Claudia Donovan ✥ Warehouse 13 ✥ AU ✥ claudiometer
Character Info: Once hacked into a repository of emotionally-charged Weird Shit and kidnapped a federal agent to make him help rescue her brother from a teleportation experiment gone sideways; somehow turned this into a job instead of prison time. The AU applies more to her castmate's arc than her own, making Helena's end-of-S2 psychotic break a little less psychotic. Technically she's been around Liminal one jaunt longer than Naoki, but her played time is three and a half years. Because her own trauma is sufficiently dealt with, she ends up being Therapist Friend a lot, and also built intranet servers for Liminal Space.
Patron Arcana: Empress! This is public knowledge. She thinks Mei's pretty all right and would like to go home eventually pls.
Upcoming Plans: Infiltrating in the coming jaunt. Need to safeguard a secret? She's your Sithen. Otherwise she's going to be helping with Shiro's replacement replacement arm, when that ends up happening.
CR/Plotting Desired: I really just need to get her out more in general. BRING ME YOUR TECHY NERDS.
Offered Skills: here!
Wanted Skills: Now that there's a way into half the psychic skill tree that isn't brain hackery, Claudia wants a lot of things.
Additional Notes: Claudia is fluent in Meme but also has a lot of practice explaining the 21st century.

[amadine]

Character: Sabetha Belacoros ✥ The Gentleman Bastard Sequence ✥ OU ✥ amadine
Character Info: Accomplished con artist and spy from a clockwork renaissance setting with eldritch horrors thrown in. Can be prickly, hates being backed into a corner, and approaches most situations with an eye towards how to gain an advantage. While she's come to consider the Travelers her people in a sense, and will generally not fuck with them maliciously (unless they're Infiltrating as the sort of bastard she feels morally obligated to fuck with), she is fairly distrustful of the vast majority.
Patron Arcana: Sabetha is Marked by the High Priestess. She hasn't disclosed this fact publicly, and her Mark is generally covered by her clothing. She isn't fond of the Arcana, and doesn't keep her distaste quiet.
Upcoming Plans: In the long term, there will potentially be plans for field tripping to previously-visited worlds, and in general, Sabetha's looking for a way to break the game or win it for the Travelers.

In the short term, she's Infiltrating as the Opener of Locks in the upcoming Jaunt, and will be taking as much advantage as she can of the inevitable chaos to get into all kinds of trouble. She has a plotting comment over here with more information.

CR/Plotting Desired: It'd be nice to get her some more positive(ish) CR - friendship may take a while, but friendly acquaintance, alliance, or mutually using one another is also fun.

I'm open to negative CR, too. She's pretty much never going to get along with law-and-order types.
Offered Skills: She has all of these. Some she won't teach without a pressing reason, can't teach, or is keeping very quiet, but if you're interested in something she has, let me know and we'll try to work something out.
Wanted Skills: Eventually I will settle on a color for her and take Color Magic, I swear.

The only skills I'm angling hard for at present are Psychic Bridge II and Memorial Bridge, though I may pick those up as freebies via plot role, if I'm not too distracted by Jaunt shinies.

[cantshakeme]

These thieves should probably get to know each other at some point. (Would she, in her plot role, be able to tell if someone is a thief?)

[reallymean]

Character: Princess Allura ✥ Voltron: Legendary Defender ✥ OU ✥ reallymean
Character Info: Space elf princess from an almost-extinct species who serves as one of the leaders in the fight against a millennia-old evil space empire. Generally serious and driven, compassionate but not necessarily soft. Does have a playful side when she's allowed to unwind; this often involves her mice. Or food fights. Current canon point is the end of Season 5.

She's a veteran of Moebius and The Spark, and of an unknown number of pre-Moebius Jaunts - she was around during the first Yensid trip, but is uncertain as to how long she was a Traveller before that. She returned just prior to the Olympus Jaunt, and has been Travelling uninterrupted since.
Patron Arcana: Empress. A few people know this, but while she's not actively hiding her affiliations, she's not shouting them from the rooftops either. Her mark is a crown of tiny silver stars at her hairline, nearly invisible in the light but faintly luminescent in the dark.

In general, she is not a huge fan of the Arcana since, as noted, she's a Moebius veteran. Empress is an exception to this, because Empress is unfairly charming.
Upcoming Plans: Allura's one of the people who was roped into investigating Tower's death. Considering she's sympathetic towards the desire to stab the Arcana, she's more interested in making use of the investigation to figure out some of their weaknesses, and may be inclined to share her memories of the investigation so far if asked.

For the Jaunt, she's Infiltrating as a sithen with powers of healing and protection, if anyone needs somewhere to hide out and get patched up.
CR/Plotting Desired: She could use people to lean on and/or relax around, or occasionally just be genuinely not all right with. Also magic nerds to nerd at could be fun.
Offered Skills: Here. She's willing to teach any of the Liminal skills, and will also teach Archetypal Magic, True Bond, or Dreamcatcher from Questing Country. Also, while it's not on the list, she can confer a Lesser Blessing on people via Nike's Mantle to give them a physical boost or the ability to grow wings.
Wanted Skills: Psychic Healing, Liminal Opt-out, and the building blocks for Mind Palace Projection are her current wanted list.

[fighterpaladin]

I know Keith and Allura's relationship in canon is tense sometimes, and a bit weird, and I can think of a couple of reasons for that, but I really love Allura? And I think that, over time, they could have actually become good friends (and it really sucks that canon never actually gave that to us in a way that I could appreciate at all).

In spite of their differences - and Keith's feelings - I think that they have a bunch of things in common too, and Keith does care about Allura too, for sure, in his Keith-way. I'm more than open to develop their friendship and provide someone she can just be herself around with (since, honestly, that was already happening in canon already, she never sugar-coated things with Keith).

[breakaleginhalf]

Character: Gil Ryanson ✥ Changeling: The Lost ✥ OU ✥ breakaleginhalf
Character Info: Perfectly average normal dude who then, with his friends, got kidnapped by the Fair Folk and murdered a fucking bunch, before he managed to escape and make it back to the real world. Then a year later got sucked into Syn. Has been here for a year and eight-ish months, and has been dating Raidou Kuzunoha for about nine months now (though only a small number of people actually know this)!
Patron Arcana: Magician! Actually has a pretty good rapport with her, and has visited her a few times to ask about the game and the Arcana in general. I think he doesn't realise he would be genuinely gutted if something happened to her.
Upcoming Plans: Gil is my most "go with the flow" character, so his plans are usually fast and loose. On the coming jaunt he'll be trading his Glamour for whatever and getting Up To Shit.
CR/Plotting Desired: I'm down for pretty much anything! He's a huge asshole so keep that in mind, but he's typically pretty personable.
Offered Skills: He's got a lot of portal skills, and all the manipulation skills up to and including Liminal Regeneration!
Wanted Skills: He's slowly working his way up the Psychic skill tree to get to Memory Restoration! Also any boosts to portal skills he will absolutely take.
Additional Notes: Permissions post for his Changeling bullfuckery!

[amadine]

Gil and Sabetha should probably meet at some point in the not too distant future, huh?

[darkmagiciangirl]

Character: Monx Kha ✥ Final Fantasy XIV ✥ OU ✥ darkmagiciangirl
Character Info: Short (4'8") purple lizard magician girl part of a band of warriors defending her home from the evils. She is very intelligent, patient, optimistic, and kind. She has a tanuki pup named Bom Boko that likes to shape shift into things and surprise her. She's a happy and flirty drunk and loves to play violin. Her current canon point is the end of 4.3.
Patron Arcana: Sun! Her fellow warriors of light know, but she has not shared outside of them. She keeps her opinion very close to the vest, but she is not a big fan of the Arcana all the way deep down in her heart of hearts. She will, however, align her loyalties with the Arcana her friends back if they feel there is hope there.
Upcoming Plans: She will be investigating on the next jaunt. I have no clue what she will actually be doing, so I very much welcome any schemes you may have - she is a friendly person and will gladly join people on the investigation.
CR/Plotting Desired: She loves new friends and would kill for research buddies - she has a propensity for magic and maths, and teaching her more formal (as we know in our world) sciences would absolutely make her happy.
Offered Skills: She doesn't have much, unfortunately. But she is very very very skilled in magic of the XIV flavor and would be more than happy to teach anyone who is magic able to cast!
Wanted Skills: She is working her way towards summon creature - she needs liminial manipulation 1 and portal creation (remote)! Other than that, she'll take anything someone is willing to teach. :)
Additional Notes: She can play piano, but she mostly loves to play stringed instruments. She itches to play violin again. She has also finished her deck of sixty, which is the Eorzean equivalent to a tarot deck, and will gladly read fortunes - especially over drinks. She mostly just finds it fun more than anything. Her pet tanuki is almost quite friendly and enjoys turning into random mundane objects just to surprise others.

[dino_zarf]

Character: Wash ✥ Firefly ✥ OU ✥ dino_zarf
Character Info: Wash likes flying and solutions that don't involve violence. He also adores and is terrified of his daughter.
Patron Arcana: Emperor. Because dad.
Upcoming Plans: Wash is in a super powers arms race with a toddler. That is his forever plan. He'll be going on the Walkabout because a toddler so doesn't fit with the Jaunt setting. :p
CR/Plotting Desired: Wash needs grownup friends to talk about grownup problems with.
Offered Skills: Wash knows a wide assortment of people containment skills. Rose has also been known to teach her skills though her teaching methods are... unique.
Wanted Skills: If people have ideas for baby containment, Wash is all ears
Additional Notes: Rose is harder to babysit than Taralani but babysitters are useful :p

[waitatick]

I don't know why but I think Wash and Lotor might get along. And the purple elf would be happy to babysit.

[acapriciousthing]

Character: Death ✥ Sandman ✥ OU ✥ acapriciousthing
Character Info: Don't fear the reaper, she's just not that scary. Death figures what everyone needs most at their darkest moment is a friend. Normally in CR memes this is where I say she's the epitome of non-judgemental but that is patently false because she judges the Arcana SO HARD.
Patron Arcana: Priestess. It's not terribly public. She also does not approve of the Arcana. That's super public.
Upcoming Plans: She's very concerned about fallout from the Tower thing. Though seriously Arcana what did you expect the mortals to do?
CR/Plotting Desired: Death's always a good one for prickly characters and unique worldviews
Offered Skills: You basic liminal stuff
Wanted Skills: She will never learn psychic protection if no one ever points out she might need it.
Additional Notes: So much judging the Arcana. JUDGEMENT.

[whatsina_name]

Character: Phillip Durand ✥ Original ✥ OU ✥ whatsina_name
Character Info: Reincarnated death god who doesn't want to talk about it, thanks. Giant theater nerd and a bit of a drama queen. Has essentially grown up in Liminal Space so is way too used to most of this.
Patron Arcana: High Priestess, which he tends to keep on the down-low; his mark is on the back of his hand which is why he tends to wear fingerless gloves a lot. Has a generally neutral position on the Arcana.
Upcoming Plans: Nothing specific! He'll be a Sithen next Jaunt that looks the age he was when he was first in Purgatory- which is to say, 12. I did say he basically grew up here.
CR/Plotting Desired: What would you like to do with your character in the future? Be as loose or specific as you want - negative CR, positive CR, directions you want to go with character development
Offered Skills: He's got a lot, it's a little ridiculous.
Wanted Skills: I haven't totally decided what he's working towards next, but tbh he likes learning anything and especially magic.
Additional Notes: He lives with Casper in the mead hall.

Character: Peter Nureyev ✥ The Penumbra ✥ OU ✥ cantshakeme
Character Info: Master thief of twenty years, former teenage revolutionary/terrorist, well contained disaster. Peter is cunning and mostly focused on his self-interest, but he comes off as very charming and likable for the most part.
Patron Arcana: Lovers, which he is going to be reluctant to divulge. His mark is on his chest. He really, really doesn't like any of the Arcana, but he's being a bit coy about that at the moment.
Upcoming Plans: Right now I'm mostly trying to get him settled- for the Jaunt he'll be Investigating and will almost certainly take an interest in the thefts and might be able to help out with that. (Send a thief to catch a thief, and all.)
CR/Plotting Desired: It would be nice to get to a point with a few people where he can sort-of trust them enough to let them know his basic skillset, as well as people who are suspicious of him. I'm willing to see where most anything goes.
Offered Skills: He's got basically nothing right now that he'd be willing to teach, unfortunately.
Wanted Skills: The ones Peter wants are pretty much all the invasive ones that no one wants to teach, but he will also be looking for any skills that keep him from being spied on.
Additional Notes: Peter is going by 'Emir Dark' in Liminal Space and will not be telling anyone his real name.

[letsgetdowntobismuth]

Peter's a veteran, right? ovo

[fighterpaladin]

Character: Keith ✥ Voltron: Legendary Defender ✥ OU ✥ fighterpaladin

Character Info: Keith is the original red paladin of Voltron who was made, due to circumstances beyond his control (and that he is not a fan of), into the eventual leader and pilot of the Black Lion. He can be impulsive and stubborn, and he might rub a lot of people the wrong way with how 'in your face' he is (and his poor capacity to read situations or moments as not appropriate for certain - even if honest - comments) and with how quickly his patience might die down, but deep down Keith has a good heart, he cares deeply about his people and he will do pretty much anything for them.

Patron Arcana: Death. Keith just got here, so he is taking everything Mortimer tells him with a grain of salt, but I'll also say that his encounter with him will be much better than what I ever thought it would. So far, he liked what he heard, even though he is still getting used to this whole situation. Depending on what happens in the future, his opinion might either completely change or he might actually become quite the ally to his Arcana. Currently, his patron arcana is private (though some people will certainly learn about it, sooner or later) and his mark is a small "XIII" written as if it was cut into his skin with a small blade, at the nape of his neck. It's hidden by his mullet hair, so people won't be seeing it randomly.

Upcoming Plans: The only set-in-stone long-term plan I have for Keith is him and Lance finally getting their stuff figured out and eventually getting together. Help from people to get towards this goal would not only be welcome but awesome, as slow-burn as it might be (we want it to happen overtime, not in a snap of fingers or blink of an eye). I'm also really into whatever the Arcana are up to/what they might want? I really love the potential of what the Arcana might bring to the table, and all these marked people, so I'm really curious to see where that all goes. Oh! Also, bringing Kosmo to him at some point! He misses his buddy.

CR/Plotting Desired: Any CR is more than welcome (except for shipping, for the reasons stated above). I mean, I play Keith as 100% queer (he is gay and demi), so he might do a double take if your character is a good-looking dude, but that's all there is, he is really not interested in romance since his heart already belongs to someone who forgot about their bonding moment what the fuck Lance. However, I'm open to all other sorts of CR, good or bad! I'd also really like more Voltron-team CR and just them working as a group and stuff? That would be awesome. Also, again, Arcana-related stuff could be really cool too.

Offered Skills: Well, I still don't know if his skill equivalences were approved or not, but Keith just got here, so he has... zero skills besides those. Help. He does know how to fight though, and do some cool ninja-like stuff, besides having various survival skills, so if anyone needs help with that, it's possible that he could help!

Wanted Skills: Erm. Uh. ... Stuff and things? sjdhajkdhahk I don't know, I guess, probably the capacity to make Psychic Network posts fully private to certain people, sometimes? Hammerspace and... is it called Room Creation? I think that's what's called. You know, to make his own bubble. Also, again, the ability to bring Kosmo around though Shiro might actually eventually help with that, hi Megan.

Additional Notes: For the upcoming Jaunt, Keith will be investigating with Lance and Pidge (thank you for watching over them AL ;;). I have... absolutely no idea what will happen, but if anyone has ideas or suggestions, they are welcome!

[breakaleginhalf]

My boy Gil here is apparently making a habit of adopting teens, and had pretty solid bonds with Shiro based around Uncomfortably Familiar Trauma, so I can see him adopting one of Shiro's dumbshit gay kids too.

He's also got pretty positive CR with his own Arcana, so maybr he could help Keith learn how to bust into Death's space under his own power, and not just when Death summons him!

[sharpshooterpaladin]

Character: Lance ✥ Voltron: Legendary Defender ✥ OU ✥ sharpshooterpaladin
Character Info: Lance is an 18 year old human space traveller. He's friendly, approachable, expressive and proactive and doesn't always have the best brain-to-mouth filter. He's a bit of a bi disaster, but since he's got his eye on someone with terrible hair, he's less of a flirt lately.

Patron Arcana: Lance's Arcana is the Wheel of Fortune! He doesn't know this yet, so he can't really be public about it. His mark is on his upper back, so nobody's seen it yet either - a set of stars, with ten larger ones (one of which is blue and one red) and a smattering of smaller ones, all interconnected with faint, dotted lines, though it's not a constellation anyone will recognize.

Upcoming Plans: I don't have a lot of plans for the upcoming jaunt. He's investigating and it's his first, so he's mostly going to be confused and try to figure out what they're even supposed to do. ... while somehow trying to wrap his head around people he knows infiltrating. People have thankfully already volunteered to keep him from making any unwise bargains!
He will always be there to support his cast/friends in any way he can if he knows they're in trouble maybe even Lotor, so I'm kind of considering him included if things hit the fan for any of the others!
Longer term I'm hoping to have him realize the crush he's had on Keith for literal years - and do something about it - this'll take some doing, and he might need a hand with this.

CR/Plotting Desired: Okay I know "everything" is a bad answer but I just got here, so... everything! But some more specific points:
- GO TEAM VOLTRON (and Matt and, he guesses, Lotor, maybe) but yeah, let's do stuff
- Befriending non-humans or people from vastly different worlds is always great and he's always up for it
- Likewise, getting to know people he can share memes or bad puns or references with is also awesome
- Please let him have a spa day, he needs it, so do you, tag along (anyone he befriends who seems stressed out may be subject to this)
- negative/complicated CR is also good! Lance is genuinely kind and caring, I think it would be neat to force him to work together with someone he generally doesn't agree with, say, in a jaunt setting
- in due time I'd really like someone (or multiple someones) to notice his crush and that he keeps making that face at Keith and, you know, help him work that out, but... this will need time.

Offered Skills: Hah uh... newbie here. So not yet, sorry.
Wanted Skills: He's going to need to start with the basics! Stuff like sensory livestreaming or portal creation, or hammerspace probably? What are some must-haves? Eventually I'd love Fortune's Aura for him, and Combined Contingency for him and Keith, but... eventually.
Additional Notes: Shout-out to AL for bearing with us and taking us under her wing here! You're awesome, sorry about the babysitting.

[breakaleginhalf]

Fresh precious baby bi, please let this grown-ass homo take you under his wing.

Aka my boy Gil would absolutely adopt Lance as a student/baby sibling bc that's what he do with queer young teens apparently. He could help teach Lance how to use Hammerspace and turn liminal matter into the best brands of beauty products.

[wholeheaded]

Character: Ambrose ✥ Tin Man ✥ post-canon AU ✥ wholeheaded

Character Info: Former adviser to the queen of the Outer Zone (which most folks are free to know is THAT Oz, now), once had half his brain stolen by a wicked witch For Reasons, wide-eyed optimist, Cool-Funny Uncle. Ninja mage confidant mentor, likes handing out caramel candies and wry advice. That guy with the zipper on his head. Married to R. Daneel Olivaw.

Patron Arcana: The Fool! It's pretty well known: he was one of the first Marked and he'll talk about it easily enough. His Mark is a wreath of poppies in the shape of a 0, located below his right collar bone and I sort of hate it but it's been there for four years so oh well. I am (and he is) down for hanging out with his fellow Fool Marked so they can maybe work on a strategy... which is sort of anti-Fool but hey, it can be a vague plan.

Upcoming Plans: He'll be on the Jaunt and infiltrating as a member of the Sithen royal court be it's how he do all the time forever. He's an advocate for peace and neutrality but has grown a bit complacent, jaunt plans involve shaking him out of that and maybe being more...actively neutral.

CR/Plotting Desired: Friends, folks to mentor at, folks to science with, and I'm always down for infiltrator families and similar shenanigans.

Offered Skills: His skill list is here and yes I do still need to update it and clean it up. He's willing to teach just about anything which can be taught so hmu.

Wanted Skills: Nnnnothing I can think of immediately.

Additional Notes: He's been around forever and he likes tacos and not taking things seriously. Ambrose is along for the ride.

[waitatick]

Did you say 'folks to science with?' Purple Indiana Jones is your boy, Ambrose.

[waitatick]

Character: Lotor ✥ Voltron: Legendary Defender ✥ partial AU; at this point the Colony didn't happen and I've blanked out on any other specifics. SOON ✥ waitatick
Character Info: Lotor's very tall and the son of genocidal dictators, one of whom doesn't even know this, so that's fun. He's paranoid but extremely loyal and is looking to bring down his father's tyrannical empire and bring peace however he can, doing his best to save lives in the process. he actually did this in canon by committing patricide like two episodes before I brought him in so yeah. Can be manipulative and is far more prone to intellectual warfare than physical, though he's extremely strong and well-trained. Formed an alliance with Voltron and fell in lurve with Allura so that got complicated fast, but he's Doing His Best (tm). He's from right after he and Allura got back from Oriande if that means anything to anyone.

Hasn't been in game terribly long and is still incredibly wary of the Arcana and how they run things since it reminds him of his mother and her methods. Has only infiltrated once and still isn't over it. Has fairly pronounced PTSD in game that can manifest at inopportune times. Probably more likely after killing Allura on the last Walkabout. His life is good times.
Patron Arcana: Justice! I know, but it's actually really fitting for him. Lotor's mark is a tramp stamp since I couldn't resist, of the Scales of Justice, a lion's head in the scale on the left side and a star in supernova on the right.
Upcoming Plans: Honestly at this point nothing super definitive, though I'd love to have him get past his paranoia a little bit and develop genuine connections. He'll most likely be Jaunting, though I have no real idea what he'll be doing as yet.
CR/Plotting Desired: I need to get this idiot eggplant out there more. I've been fairly reclusive and avoidant since joining the game and I'd really love to expand his CR! Might try to open some sort of dance studio or at least some classes for it since I headcanon that's what he uses as the basis for most of his battle skills (that aren't in ships). Would love to get him to the point where he feels comfortable letting his guard down a little and learning to laugh. He's also kind of a troll in canon when he feels comfortable, and I'd love to explore that side of him more.
Offered Skills: He doesn't have a whole bunch to offer as yet but they're here if anyone wants any! He's happy to teach.
Wanted Skills: Anything useful? Lotor enjoys acquiring information and ways to take down enemies without resorting to slaughter. Current goal is for Summon Creature since he wants his kitty.
Additional Notes: He's a rather pleasant shade of lavender and has pointy ears. He's also like seven and a half feet tall and a really good dancer so. Yeah. Has Altean marks though they're not visible except in very specific circumstances, though likely more often here than they would be in the OU.

[helborn]

Character: Casper LeBlanc Jr. ✥ Scion/Old World of Darkness ✥ OC ✥ helborn
Character Info: A demigod of Hel who has a raven and whose name is constantly followed by the words "no" or "stop". As in "Casper no, Casper stop". He's kind, loyal, and messed up by trauma. He has a prosthetic leg and somewhat poor impulse control, but he's a good listening ear. He's dating Bob Laughs-at-the-Storm and has a husky form so now he's part of the local wolfpack.
Patron Arcana: Moon, and he really doesn't like her. His boyfriend does though, so he just grumbles quietly.
Upcoming Plans: He's going to be investigating in the Jaunt this time around, so I'm kind of free for planning. Laughs is going to be disappearing for a bit, so he's going to just assume he's on the other side of the Jauntabout...
CR/Plotting Desired: Sparring partners, other people who are interested in ghosts and such... I'm mostly here for positive CR with him. More wolfpack CR - anyone in that please let me know if you wanna throw our characters together.
Offered Skills: Cantrips, Blue Magic, and anything in the category of 'make real big rooms' is his specialty. He also has Liminal Thermostat which is neat - and a bunch of other assorted skills.
Wanted Skills: I'm actually good on what he wants for purely psychic/liminal skills right now I think, but if there's any neat Jaunt skills people are willing to teach I'm starting to pick at them a bit.
Additional Notes: I'm sorry for him.

Character: Naoya ✥ Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor ✥ OU ✥ crouching_sin
Character Info: Literally Cain, reincarnated over and over again. A very angry man who is also a huge troll and one of the most (if not the most) brilliant hackers in his world. Good friends with Liminal's local Warriors of Light (the FFXIV crew), has a Pogemon bond with Q'uila, and is in a mutual feelings denial situation with Felih. He has a green adult Cheetah dragon named Alice who is about the size of a horse who likes to sit on him when he's being unreasonable.
Patron Arcana: Justice, and he's very much in favor of her. She's promised help if she wins, so he's gunning for her to win.
Upcoming Plans: He's going to infiltrator persona on the next Jaunt (for the first time!) and is going to probably enjoy being a demon. If anyone wants to make a Deal with him...
CR/Plotting Desired: He's... very easy to make negative CR with, just due to him being a natural troll. I need to fling him out there more, but anyone into programming please come his way. He needs to have a hacking party.
Offered Skills: He's a surprisingly good teacher, especially for programming. He's got a couple of the Grid skills for those who want those. He's got up to Liminal Masque and up to Infiltrator Persona on the respective trees, so if someone wants to learn anything up to those, hit me up. ... He won't teach someone he considers an idiot, though.
Wanted Skills: I'm steering him towards the psychic tree again - he's missing some key skills like Psychic Protection II and the more hacker-y skills. ... Which he should have gotten previously, but I had other things I was gunning for him.
Additional Notes: I'm also sorry for him.

Character: Ryuga Banjou ✥ Kamen Rider Build ✥ OU ✥ duelingbanjou
Character Info: From the same world as Sento, he's his season's designated Loud Boy. Banjou is a former boxer turned falsely accused criminal turned Kamen Rider who'll fight for justice and love and peace but he's mostly here to punch bad guys in the face. He's gone through a lot of shit but he's come out the other side. He's still fairly new so he has no idea what the hell he's doing, but that's not too much of a change from his normal state.
Patron Arcana: He's Chariot, and somewhat neutral to the guy.
Upcoming Plans: Probably sending him walkaboutways. He's going to be an angry squirrel but I can't decide whether he's infiltrating or investigating. Either way he's going to be pestering Sento.
CR/Plotting Desired: It's easy for him to get negative CR with people who don't like loud idiots. Otherwise, he needs sparring partners and people to teach him things and also people to get him to sit down and just hang out rather than yell and punch.
Offered Skills: He's still new so he doesn't have much in the way of teachable skills, but he can teach boxing if your character wants.
Wanted Skills: Extraliminal Gravity and Sensory Livestreaming and Memory Sharing are what I'm going for with him next, but any other sort of more physical skills are more his speed if anyone has those.
Additional Notes: If you piss him off too much, get ready to see lava dragons.

[cannibalartist]

Character: Uta ✥ Tokyo Ghoul(:Re) ✥ OU ✥ cannibalartist

Character Info: Loki but more punk and less Tom Hiddleston.

More seriously, amoral with quiet motives, he seems to be friendly enough when interacted with. He trades half truths and vague statements for information. He is incredibly loyal to those he chooses to be - his loyalty is often won by earning his respect. He is someone to also respect the wishes of those he likes (up to and including letting someone die before him should they say to let them die).

Patron Arcana: Justice. Who he is marked by makes little difference to him. His mark is a large back piece that is of a similar style of current tattoos. I have not yet figured the imagery of it, but it is quite elaborate. Due to his other tattoos already being riddled with imagery of Sun, Death, and Fool, it is hard to tell which is actually his Arcana. This is information he will not particularly divulge.

Upcoming Plans: In the next jaunt he will be our Prince of Witches, so he will be wheeling and making deals and trading oaths. If you have information for him, he will pay you for it. I would also particularly like to build a repository of people that owe him things, so if you think that you may be interested in owing a favor to him, please drop it here! (Or if you would like to make a deal with him in some way, I'd love to make something!)

In the long run he will generally be pretty chaotic and try to stir the pot. He will likely eventually try to round people up to kill another Arcana, because that sounds fun. :)

CR/Plotting Desired: Uta himself will be looking to make friends in powerful places, as well as to create a spot for himself in that roster. Anyone who exists on the chaotic end of the alignment chart will find him a powerful ally and agent for chaos, should the ends they wish sound entertaining to him.

Ultimately Uta will look to be on good terms with everyone. I hope that most of his CR finds him vaguely unsettling, or feels that they cannot trust him but are unable to explain why. That being said, I would like for him to make some actual real friends, too - hopefully without all the weird mess that he has back at him where he wants to eat his best friend.

I'm down with him having enemies, too, though much of that will likely be one-sided. Uta himself approaches life as something of a game, so he may find someone hating him really amusing more than anything. (Don't confuse this with him being unaware of it, it's just that he's amused by it.)

Offered Skills: He's brand new, so nothing in terms of jaunt/liminal stuff. He is a very accomplished artist (traditional, digital, and mask making) and would be willing to help people with similar interests. He is also very accomplished at combat and would make for an excellent sparring partner.

Pending acceptance, he will have perfect timing and mastery of disguise, but I haven't gotten a green light on that yet so I don't want to commit him to it.

Wanted Skills: He will need to get liminal manip 2 pretty asap to deal with his dietary requirements, but his goal is to learn any and everything.

Additional Notes: Q'uila Sunrise's mun has head-canoned that if Uta went on the walkabout he'd be a raccoon and so now he's just a trash panda. (I personally liken him more to a cat.)

[razorblade_empress]

Character: Yukino "Yukki" Mayuzumi ✥ Persona 2 ✥ OU ✥ razorblade_empress

Character Info: Old-school Persona user (as in, she got her first Persona the same year some of the Inaba kids were born) and former juvenile delinquent, who works for Coolest Magazine as an apprentice photographer back in Sumaru City circa 1999. Has been through two demonic incursion incidents (technically three, but there was a timeline split; she's from the one where the world didn't get destroyed, although she's aware of what happened in the other branch), both (all) of which were at least partially engineered by Nyarlathotep. Generally pretty level-headed in a crisis and very much an older sister/Team Mom type; there's a reason her primary Arcana in canon is Empress. She's also a Moebius vet whose first Jaunt was the original Red Dirt.

Patron Arcana: Judgement. Yukino has decidedly mixed feelings on this, as she's familiar enough with Tarot to know that something is seriously wrong with them. Unfortunately, Judgement also pings her "judgmental asshole adult" meter very hard, and she doesn't have the best history with judgmental asshole adults, so the likelihood of her actually finding out what's wrong with them is currently on the low side. She's discussed Judgement on the network before, so she's not making a big secret of who claimed her, but she doesn't really go out of her way to mention it.

Upcoming Plans: She'll be Infiltrating on the Jaunt as either a Sithen or a Demon; I'm not sure yet. At some point, she'll end up having a dungeon/dreamgeon so she can regain her memories of the Innocent Sin branch in earnest and come to terms with what she went through there. Speaking of memories, she's working on regaining her lost pre-Moebius memories as well.

CR/Plotting Desired: Friends, fellow Moebius vets, fellow Moebius vets who are friends, fellow photographers, people she can take under her wing keep an eye out for... She was very much a Big Sister figure to other students back in her high school days despite the delinquent past, although she's also a very No Bullshit type and not apt to make a big deal over things.

Offered Skills: Yukki's skill list is here. One thing of note is that she can now make Infoglasses for other people, so if you want a pair of glasses that doubles as a massive data repository for your character, she can do that.

Wanted Skills: Any skills that will help her with regaining pre-Moebius memories are a plus, and she would also appreciate the Technical Maintenance and Upkeep skill from the Spark Jaunt, or something equivalent, if anyone has that (she kept the computer programming skill from that Jaunt, but she can't make anything backwards compatible to use it).

Additional Notes: Yukino is from the older Persona games that don't have Wild Cards; anybody can have multiple Personas. Right now, though, she's just got the one (Durga).

[fearinahandfulof]

Character: Cassandra the Dust-Eater ✥ Claymore ✥ OU ✥ fearinahandfulof

Character Info: Shy and self-conscious half-human/half-monster murder machine, created and trained to hunt monsters much more powerful than she is... which in turn brings the risk of her turning into a supercharged version of one of the aforementioned monsters if she taps too deeply into her powers. Died pre-series but was later reanimated, along with her murderer and one other warrior, using a cast-off piece of the second strongest entity in the entire series; this ended poorly for almost everyone involved, especially the aforementioned murderer. The strongest warrior of her era, and one of the strongest ever to exist. Canonically washes her face like a cat.

Patron Arcana: Cassandra was marked by Strength, about whom she has no strong feelings one way or the other. She's talked about it on the network before, but she doesn't really go out of her way to draw attention to it, either. Her mark is on her left forearm and consists of a stylized lioness head with Cassandra's personal mark on its forehead and a lemniscate over its head, all in what looks like metallic gold ink. It is not generally visible because Cassandra usually wears long sleeves and/or vambraces over it.

Cassandra's feelings on the Arcana as a whole are overall neutral, but she is also dead three times over back home and she can't go back without either returning to death or being hunted down and killed, and she doesn't particularly want to die again. So.

Upcoming Plans: Cassandra is going to be Investigating on the walkabout, although I don't have any really specific plans for her as yet.

CR/Plotting Desired: New CR for Cassandra is always good, although she's generally a bit awkward with people she doesn't know (and sometimes with people she does). She does have some issues about Mad Science and consent, because she's been the unwilling experiment on the table before and did not enjoy the experience (although in fairness neither did anyone else, aside from maybe the scientist and/or the double agent watching from the sidelines). Also, flirting will either be ignored or go sailing over her head.

Offered Skills: Cassandra's skill list is here. Her specialty is ectoplasm skills, but she'll teach almost anything on that list, bar the more invasive skills (and Dust-Eater, but given the way Dust-Eater works, she probably can't teach anyone that).

Wanted Skills: I am currently working her towards Hybrid Masque and Liminal Opt-Out, although the former has some prereqs she wouldn't seek out on her own. Otherwise, she could probably stand to pick up a few more portal skills, Liminal Bridge II, and possibly Liminal Entourage for Tatiana, her bonded dragon. I'd also like to get her Color Magic at some point, also her best match is probably still Red, and she wouldn't mind having Perpetual Creative Magic again.

Additional Notes: As mentioned, she has an adorable baby dragon named Tatiana, picked up during the Jangwa walkabout. Tatiana is generally more outgoing and cheerful than Cassandra, although she can also be fairly Opinionated about things (e.g. she hates alternate Jaunt forms, because she always seems to end up with two fewer eyes and that is Not On).

[chalicejoker]

Character: Hajime Aikawa ✥ Kamen Rider Blade ✥ PG, so he's an AU from Save the Earth ✥ chalicejoker
Character Info: FIGHTY BUGMAN with adorable talking mantis sidekick.
Patron Arcana: He's Tower's last Marked and pretty open about that--and he's been walking around in a tank top to essentially show off how the Mark is faded now. Not at all suspicious.
Upcoming Plans: Jauntwise, he will be infiltrating as the Marshal of the Hailstorm and I am up for anything and everything there. Afterwards? Jaunt fallout.
CR/Plotting Desired: He was part of the team that went to murder Tower, so I'm down for some fallout from that. He's also part of the resident werewolf pack, so if anyone wants to play around with that, that would be cool too.
Offered Skills: He's got a few combat skills he could try to teach, and he's also got a great many Liminal skills. Summon Creature is probably the least common of the ones he's got, so he's got everything related to that. He's also good for showing you how to get your talking animal companion to share Liminal or Psychic skills with you, since Ryo's all set. He can also show people how to cook, too.
Wanted Skills: Really, I need to branch out his psychic skills some and get him nudged towards Infiltrator Persona.
Additional Notes: RL's been sort of nuts (putting it mildly) over the past couple months, but I'm easing back in the swing of things!

Character: Jules Thibault ✥ Changeling: the Lost OC✥ OU ✥ failgoyle
Character Info: Looks like a normal dude, is actually a gargoyle-like Changeling. That Guy Who Screams On The Network.
Patron Arcana: Empress, and it's super public because his Mark is huge and network diving long enough will inevitably bring up the time he broadcast his naked Marked back and ass for the entire network to see. (He insists this was purely academic.)
Upcoming Plans: He's investigating in the Jaunt, and he'll be getting into trouble with Gil because Changeling Glamour is a substance that can be bartered with at the Market. I tend to wing it with him more than I plan long-term, ahaha...
CR/Plotting Desired: Shenanigans. Especially if they're magic-based shenanigans, because we've got lots of different kinds of magic here and Jules needs more trouble in his life. (If you want ultimate shenanigans, shake hands with him while making some sort of promise or agreement, that'll be cute...)
Offered Skills: He's got a handful of psychic and Liminal skills, but he's also got a couple types of magic he can throw out there, and he's an excellent coder.
Wanted Skills: So if anyone wants to try to teach any sort of self-defense skills on Ultimate Hard Mode...
Additional Notes: Can't think of anything else!

Character: Sento Kiryu ✥ Kamen Rider Build ✥ OU ✥ carbonatedscientist
Character Info: Genius physicist with a lot of weird amnesia and face-swapping drama in his past turned superhero. Has a very healthy ego.
Patron Arcana: Justice! He hasn't gone out of his way to hide it but hasn't gone out of his way to talk about it, either.
Upcoming Plans: He's going to be a bunny scientist on the Walkabout in his first time using Infiltrator Persona, and beyond that, he's just going to continue to superhero at everything he can. He fights for love and peace, and he's just going to keep on keeping on in that regard.
CR/Plotting Desired: Science buddies.He's also part of the Arcana Murder Investigation Squad, so there's that potential angle to play with, too.
Offered Skills: He's got a decent range of psychic skills and can handle teaching some of the more basic liminal skills, too.
Wanted Skills: I probably need to expand his Liminal array of skills a bit more but am too half-asleep to settle on anything in particular.
Additional Notes: Still can't think of anything!

[seestheworld]

Character: Minako Arisato ✥ Persona 3 Portable ✥ OU ✥ seestheworld

Character Info: Fighting evil by moonlight, winning love by— okay, no. Formerly a second-year high school student who spent her nights fighting monsters alongside her teammates using the mythological creatures who lived in their heads - summoned via simulated headshots, because that's what happens when you let covert death cultists and/or employees of same design your summoning equipment. Saved humanity from its own nihilism by sacrificing her life to become a door barrier against that very thing. Has a mascot who is a bit of a handful at times but is generally pretty friendly, and a slightly haughty spirit companion from Questing Country who frequently finds herself being driven to distraction by said mascot; they agree about their concerns for Minako's well-being and not much else. Has finally been acknowledged by Atlus again after years of "FemC who?" Picked up a slight case of immortality during the Olympus Upended Jaunt, much to her discomfort.

Patron Arcana: Minako was marked by Empress during the Newport Jaunt - but not in the Newport Jaunt because she was in a completely different Liminal Space at the time, which was totally not cheating on Empress' part. She's mentioned it once or twice on the network in the past, but she hasn't lately and she doesn't really go out of her way to talk about it, especially now that Empress is officially out of the running. Her mark is on her right shoulder and consists of an iron mask surmounted by a golden three-pointed crown, with a steel(?) chain whip topped with a golden stinger coiled below it and boughs of intertwined lavender and mandarin orange blossoms cradling both.

Minako is mostly agnostic about the Arcana as a whole and ambivalent about the game, but she is adamantly against a Fool win, because a factory reset would likely leave her dead again... unless it leaves her immortal and still serving as the Great Seal.

Upcoming Plans: I'm still trying to decide which side of the Jauntabout she'll be on - she was here for the first Purgatory Jaunt and would have some idea of what to expect, and her patron Arcana's financial generosity means she'll probably be even more loaded with Virtue than she already is, but on the other hand she could end up a mouse again and be disgruntled about that for a while - but wherever she ends up, she'll be Investigating.

CR/Plotting Desired: In general, she's a pretty go-with-the-flow character, but she could stand something to work towards rather than against. She can get along with a pretty wide variety of personality types.

Offered Skills: Minako's list of skills is here. She'll happily teach most of them, outside of Hypnotic Instruction (which is both unteachable and makes her feel skeevy), Evoker-based Persona summoning (just... no), and Eagle Vision (which she got from a dungeon and can't teach). Blood Magic is iffy, since I don't think she's mentioned to anyone that she even has that and the person who taught her is long gone. She can also teach cooking and sewing.

Wanted Skills: Minako is All Liminal, All The Time, but at this point it's probably easier to list the Liminal skills she doesn't have (for the record, those are: Extraliminal Immunity, Liminal Architecture, Liminal Generator, Liminal Hanger, Liminal Hook, Liminal Masque, Liminal Proxy, Room Creation III, and Summon Creature). I don't know if she'll ever pick up Summon Creature, because that requires a creature to summon and she already has two, but hey.

Additional Notes: She has an opt-out post over here for suicide imagery related to her Evoker-based Persona summoning.

Character: Q'uila Sunrise ✥ Final Fantasy XIV ✥ AU ✥ dragoonrouge
Character Info: Q'uila is a Miqo'te Sunseeker, and one of a number of Warriors of Light, a group chosen by the planet Hydaelyn to protect it from the threat posed by Primals, and the Ascians and their Master
Patron Arcana: Q'uila is Marked by Justice, it's not something she really thinks much about as she's never really interacted with Justice much, but if asked she'd tell you who Marked her. Her specific Mark is a sword wrapped in serpentine dragons that stretches all the way down her spine. The o ly time you can see it is when she's sunbathing, which is fairly often now that she has her own room
Upcoming Plans: I imagine there's going to be some fallout in the future for the whole Tower Murder Train thing, but Q'uila's longterm plans are going to be working on a way to ensure that Travellers can continue to see each other after the game is over regardless of which Arcana wins.
CR/Plotting Desired: I am open to all CR! Q'uila will always try and strive for positive relationships with people, but it can be fun for me when despite that it just doesn't work out that way. Although a warning, there is a chance that Q'uila will unofficially adopt you. She does that.
Offered Skills: Psychic Detection up to Level Three, a handful of Liminal skills, such as Hammerspace. She can also teach Magical Metalworking and, I'm hoping the future, will be able to start teaching class skills from FFXIV.
Wanted Skills: Any and all, Q'uila is always interested in learning new things.
Additional Notes: Q'uila has an ability called the Echo, more details can be found in Permissions.
