May your heart be your guiding key - contains KH3 spoilers

ACCEPTED!

Your character's Arcana assignment is Chariot.

We're still working on getting the intro mingle together, and anticipate that landing no later than tomorrow. The Conversation Space page includes details on meeting your patron Arcana.

Powercap notes: Pick one of Sora's in-game summons (or the... Meow-Wow, I (Jill) am taking Airdra's word for this) and that's what he gets. As for keyblades/waking, please ask a mod before using them on Syn features/people so we can hash out whether and how it'd work.

So! I'm tentatively (like 70% sure) considering bringing him in for the jaunt ~~and more, if I can manage~~, but I know I won't be able to run a dungeon and the jaunt at the same time, so putting this here.

NAME: Marla Sanzashi
CANON: Pokemon OC
POINT IN CANON: After her disappearance from Phantasmal Rift
AGE: 19ish
APPEARANCE: Here is a link to a first impressions post for her. Her appearance has not changed in any significant way between now and her most recent game.

Edited 2019-07-11 04:50 (UTC)

CANON HISTORY: There's no significant alterations from canon in the Pokemon universe that Marla comes from, and she's not acquainted with any canon characters.

Marla was born in Unova, a region of the Pokemon world that's basically all of New York and probably parts of New Jersey. Her father was originally from Sinnoh (a region akin to the Hokkaido region of Japan), but that's neither here nor there and doesn't have too much bearing on the plot.

Marla had a pretty uneventful childhood by Pokemon world standards (by a certain definition), as she grew up with her two parents, her younger sister. and two older half-siblings. She was also born with a mild to moderate bone disease that left her unable to explore the entire region to the same extent a lot of other kids would, so she mostly stayed in school. Marla doesn’t have too many complexes over her disability, and is honestly more self-conscious and salty when people make judgments on her over it than she is about the condition itself - which she just views in a “yeah it sucks, but what are you gonna do” kind of way.

After finishing high school, she received a scholarship to study abroad in Kalos. After a few weeks, she received an email from her mom with some harrowing news: her maternal grandparents had been found dead.

So on her mother's request, she decided to head over to her grandparents' house with her siblings to help with funeral stuff. This started off relatively painless at first...until she started cleaning out a bedroom and found some spooky ghosts which dragged her into a blood-spattered feverdream. Most of this has to do with the fact that Marla's maternal aunt (also the biological mother of Marla's two older siblings that Marla's mother subsequently adopted) died years and years ago, only to be turned into a ghost Pokemon of some sort and in the middle of an existential crisis. She told her younger biological sister about this, and they spent the next couple of weeks bonding with the ghost while keeping it a secret from the rest of the family. After going through some more old stuff and finding some damning testimony from the ghost, they found out something really strange: apparently their two older siblings were actually the ghost's biological kids, who their mom had claimed were her own for unknown reasons. Horribly confused and feeling just slightly betrayed, Marla had decided to ask her mom about this, which is where she gets transported to multiversal chaos a la CRAU.

CANON PERSONALITY: To put it simply: Marla at the time of her departure was a mystery wrapped in an enigma wrapped in the irreverent husk of an ordinary teenager. She has a tendency to speak her mind about matters, even if doing so will benefit absolutely no one (including herself), but especially if doing so will lead to an incredibly chaotic, disastrous, and interesting outcome. She's actually fairly intelligent for her age, but it's the type of intelligence where someone knows damn well they can be using their genius to cure cancer and instead turns right around to turn people into dinosaurs. Marla generally doesn't have any actual desire to hurt people and under most circumstances will curb any impulses she has that she knows can harm others, and tries to, for the most part, be supportive of her friends, family, and other people she considers important to her. Any attempt to call her "good", however, is kind of misleading. Even before CRAU took its toll, she was more chaotic neutral than anything.

Her naturally rude, hyper-casual, and abrasive way of dealing with people also usually doesn’t have any ulterior motives behind it, but she’ll kick it up a notch when dealing with people she doesn’t like. It’s like a cloak of armor, defending her from the stings of the outside world by making everyone pass her off as an irreverent schlub so that she doesn’t have to deal with them on a deeper level unless she puts forth a little more effort.

Despite being a sort of fey-whimsical that's utterly terrifying at even the best of times, Marla has a soft spot for animals and kids that’s wrapped under a thousand layers of stupid. With kids, this is usually disastrous, as she's the weird aunt that teaches little kids to say "fuck". With animals, this fares a lot better, given the fact that she comes from the Pokemon universe. Marla has a natural affinity for animals and monsters of all stripes. She's also a highly creative and excitable little nerd at heart, with a penchant for arts and crafts and weird performance stuff. This is exemplified with her career as a fledgling Let's Player at home, as well as her secret love for Pokemon musicals. She's often undertaking some sort of artsy side project or other, whether that's making weird videos, making weird plushies, building a haunted house for a festival, and so on. There doesn't seem to be any real direction to them, so we can only assume it's either part of her nature or she does it to alleviate boredom.

POINT OF DEPARTURE: BOY HOWDY, this is depressing, but one fact remains as I write this app: Marla is someone who had a happy childhood and a loving family that she more or less had healthy relationships with...only for all of that to be cruelly torn away from her once she got thrusted into panfandom RP. Without her support network to fall back on, her tendency towards depression has gotten notably more pronounced, even as she insists that she’s just fine, don’t worry about it.

Things are kind of boring on the CRAU front for both Cosmographia and Demeleier, mostly because I apped into both games as they were experiencing a bit of a downturn. Demeleier closed a mere three months after Marla was accepted, but the few months she spent there taught her to be more self-sufficient: she went from being an ordinary teenager with no idea how to do shit to one who was still maybe flailing around and sucking at life, but who had more of a drive to do things herself and more resourcefulness when it came to things like building shit. During this time she, being about 16, was still fairly naive, and promptly found her formerly trusting nature crushed to dust as she had to deal with the fact that fairies lie and trick people all the time. She’s still a little salty and on edge because of it, and has a marked disdain for all fey creatures. This is even though she's kind of fey-capricious herself.

In Cosmographia, this self-sufficiency grew even more as she was asked to deal with obstacles on her own. The addition of actual powers, for the first time, has made her a bit more confident in this regard, although she’s still somewhat reluctant to do more intensive dungeon-crawling things out of a fear of biting off more than she can chew. Still, she did help take down a giant hawk and play with some babby hawk...griffin things, which she does remember fondly. Dealing with gem bullshit has also given her a fairly blase outlook on things other people would normally consider terrifying, although a lot of this is left over from the Pokemon universe she came from.

This continued on into Phantasmal Rift, where she found herself bonding with some of the Persona 5 cast, mostly due to the fact that one of them knew a canonmate of hers from previous CRAU. She started to come out of her formerly cagey shell that had formed from CRAU in these past few years, made some friends, and even tried to date a succubus? Without really knowing what a succubus was.

Well fuck, she's going to be frustrated now.
VETERAN?: N/A
ABILITIES: All of these, with the exception of her Pokemon, are from CRAU.
-Is friends with many Pokemon (five!)

-Has the ability to briefly stun enemies for a couple of minutes, but it has a range of "touch" and has a cooldown period of 10 minutes.
-A limited amount of telekinesis. It only really functions with objects that she can see within a sorta close range (so basically in the same room or same general area), and can only really pick up things under 10 pounds.
-Can shapeshift. Can hold a form more or less indefinitely if it's a humanoid that's neither too large nor too small (so between 3 and 8 feet), but has to work to maintain form if it's an animal, something really alien, or a Pokemon. Basically, the more human-ish a form is, the longer she can maintain it; she can stay as an elf for days, but not a krogan.
-Has the ability to transmute objects into other objects, as long as the end result isn't any larger than herself and she has all the raw materials.
-Can generate 1-5 Pokemon shaped plushies per day that create small (1 foot radius) explosions of confetti and firecracker madness when thrown upon impact.
-Has gem abilities tied to her physical form; if you powercap her I’d like to at least keep these. Basically, if her physical body takes too much damage, she can go retreat into her gem to reform herself (and decide on a new “default” appearance as she’s doing this). She dies if her gem breaks.

INVENTORY: The latest place she was exploring (and where a lot of characters go to for supply runs) was a city full of monsters. As such, I should point out that her outfit currently consists of:
-A bulletproof vest
-Blue high top sneakers
-Fingerless cycling gloves
-A pair of slightly worn jeans with mysterious multicolored paint stains in places.
-Theoretically, underwear and socks
-A lapel pin that says “BLACK AS YOUR SOUL” with a little gothy coffee cup
-A poop emoji hat
-An obnoxiously psychedelic knitted scarf made of a thin yarn where the different bits shift colors as time passes. It has absolutely no other magical properties.
-A solid black undershirt
-this sweatshirt

She also has a cane and a perfectly intact single serving of melon flavored shaved ice, as well as a blue messenger bag that contains:

-3 small books. Two of them are stamped with "RESONA AERE PUBLIC LIBRARY" on the interior, and the inside of another one has one of those free bookmarks used bookstores give out, from a place called Labyrinth books. The first two seem to be books about different Earth animals, and the third is a book about...demons? With a page dog-eared on the entry on incubi and succubi.
-An antique photo of her grandmother, who looks almost exactly like Marla except 100x more dignified, and also there’s a Swablu with shutter shades photobombing in the background.
-A small bag of weed
-Five Pokeballs, which held her Pokemon (Ampharos, Lillipup, Litwick, Jellicent, and Crobat)
-A wrinkled, rolled-up T-shirt for a local music festival (well, local to the last place she was in)
-A strange-looking plushie the size of a grapefruit, with a tag that only says "Syphilis"
-A small plastic kazoo
-1d4 bath bombs
-As much junk food and candy of varying types that can realistically be stuffed in the rest of this bag, oh my god Marla WHY

ANYTHING ELSE WE SHOULD KNOW? Bone disease; she’s been able to stabilize her condition after obtaining gem powers, so it’s not going to get any worse, but she has all the resilience of a wet paper bag.

M A R K S;
JUSTIFICATION: Lovers: Following the Marseilles tradition, I'm going with the doubt/dilemma angle for most of this, especially given how she's been affected by jamjar fatigue. Bonds/individual values are another biggie here, given how she's slowly trying to learn how to get attached to people again.

Death: Goodbyes, loss, inescapable situations and conclusions are all a thing that Marla knows all too well from her cycles through jamjar hell. With each multiverse hop, she's had to adapt to a new role and a new lifestyle, which also justifies the rebirth interpretation.

Judgment: Going with the "rebirth" and "accepting past mistakes" ones here. Marla's had a lot of clean slates and a lot of time to realize where she's fucked up in previous jamjars, even if working out what that means takes quite a bit of time.
VETO: Nah I’m cool

S A M P L E S;
ACTIONSPAM SAMPLE: Thread from Phanrift, although the entire post is also an open one for the character.
I also want to post the test drive thread she was in with fucking Masayoshi Shido, for no reason other than it’s glorious.
PROSE SAMPLE: "Hey. Hey."

The tiny beast paid her no mind, which was probably to be expected when hamsters can't speak or understand the human condition, so she first tried to stick her arm in to retrieve the plaid flannel hamster from the washing machine. That pretty much ended up in the hamster running about the washing machine in a desperate attempt to get away from this strange woman and her deathly appendages, so even if Marla was going to capture this thing and go full beast master on it by making it one of her latest minions, which was always an option she at least considered, it was going to take a while.

"You fuckin' serious?" she asked the hamster, a look of frustration forming upon her normally unreadable face.

Eventually, she got tired of trying to remove it by hand, and in a moment of horrid ingenuity, had an idea. The gem on her chest glowed a bright amber for a moment, until she had shrunk herself down to not quite flannel hamster size, but certainly down to the size of a horrifying denim cat. She wasn't one hundred percent sure how cats worked, but if it was anything like a slightly shittier Purrloin or something like that, she figured she could probably wing it.

It was at this exact moment that most of the other people, probably, were either looking at the strange shapeshifting woman with too much time on her hands, pretending not to, or just giving no fucks. The washing machine rattled and the not-unfamiliar scent of artificial cotton sheet essence filled the air until Marla, half-humanoid and half-plush-cat, emerged victorious from the machine, stumbling out as she tried to contain the flannel hamster in her now-human mouth while the lower half of her was finishing changing back from its formerly shapeshifted chaos. It wasn't the most awkward thing most of the other people in Liminal Space had seen, but it probably came close.

And then, cackling with a fiendish exhilaration, she placed the flannel hamster on top of her pile of laundry before giving it a pat.

"I'm going to call you Gerald."
