CHARACTER/GAME PERSONALS - JANUARY 2013

[mansionstaff]

Do you have a character that you think isn't getting enough interaction? Do you have a character who you think needs to interact with different people? Do you have a cool idea you'd like to see plotted out? You guys know the drill! Let our matchmaking service work for you!

GAME PLOTTING
Use this handy form and suggest plot ideas you'd like to see in the game. We LOVE GAME-WIDE DEVELOPMENT IDEAS.

<b>Player:</b> <b>Idea:</b> This can be anything from "cafeteria food fight" to "campus-wide murder mystery". No idea is too big or small. Find interested parties, work out details, decide on when/where/how/why together! Just remember anything really huge should be run by the moderators real quick. Use your best judgement; things like hijacking the PA system, minor to moderate property destruction and brawls don't need mod approval, but things like exploding buildings and mass-death should get approval.

CHARACTER PLOTTING
Use this handy form to make your own threads and suggest CR (character relations) you'd like to see in this game.

<b>Player:</b> <b>Character(s):</b> <b>Seeking:</b> Log / Meet New People / Interaction / People to Bother / AIM logs / Tegaki logs, ect. <b>Goals & Directions:</b> optional but recommended

GOALS & DIRECTIONS: Hey, some of us have been here a really long time and might not know what direction to take our characters in anymore, or maybe you've been here only a few days and don't know where to start. There's no better time to start than now, so don't be afraid to express what things you'd like to do with your characters, regardless if it's something that might happen in the near future or a long ways away. Fall in love? Fall out of love? Graduate? Experience what it's like to be the opposite gender? An animal? In the body of someone else? Save the world? Try to destroy it? The more other players are aware of what you want to do, the better your chances are of making your wishes into reality!

THIRD PARTY SUGGESTIONS: Suggest new CR or character ideas, even if it has nothing to do with your own characters. Just put a "THIRD PARTY SUGGESTION" in the title of your comment when you browse the Character Plotting threads, and who knows? Maybe you just suggested a great interaction or idea no one has ever thought of before. And don't forget to spread the love around with as many people as you can so everyone gets a suggestion or two!

A few ground rules:

1. You don't HAVE to accept every offer that comes your way. Accept offers you are interested in, and politely say no to ideas you do not like.
   
2. An offer does NOT guarantee a log or plot development between your characters. Please remember that.
   
3. The final decision about which offers to accept or reject goes to the original poster of the request.
   

That said, have fun and let the INTERACTION BEGIN!

OCELOT

[gunplay]

Player: Em
Character(s): Ocelot
Seeking: ALL THE THINGS. And I'm craving all the deeper CR. Enemies, allies, hot man-crushes, etc... Also he needs to meet more people.
Goals & Directions: Right now he's not doing a whole lot, still kind of looking for a good focus for his super secret spying, so if there's anyone really dripping with power (mostly political but physical is good too) maybe we can work a spy-related thing out. Also I want to continue playing around with spirit medium related things, so hey all you ghosts out there! And I am open to more ideas so BRING IT.

Okay check it out. I have a tauren shaman who, while not at the level of a true Spirit Walker, does dabble a little in that field. So that's a thing.

[gunplay]

THIS INTRIGUES ME... tell me more...

[forgetbeam]

MY EXPLANATION DEPENDS HEAVILY ON HOW FAMILIAR YOU ARE WITH THE WONDROUS WORLD OF WARCRAFT.

[gunplay]

Uhhh I played a little Warcraft II Battle.net Edition, that's the extent of it.

[forgetbeam]

OKAY. I will try to cover everything without being too TLDR.

So in wc3 the Horde met up with these big cow people who are pretty heavily spiritual, nature-loving honourable warrior types heavily influenced by Aboriginal culture, that kind of thing. So of course they have a lot of shamans who do things like commune with both the spirits of nature/the elements and the spirits of tribal ancestors, getting guidance and aid from both and revering and respecting them and all that good stuff.

Aquenda is primarily an Elementalist, but shamans and general have a heightened sensitivity to the spirit world anyway (some of their spells include things like ressurecting the freshly dead, ressurecting themselves, becoming a ghost wolf, and summoning spirit wolves to help kill stuff BLAH BLAH WHO CARES)

SO BASICALLY

I have for a little while been wanting Aquenda to start up seminars on shamanism because it doesn't seem to be a big thing in this city and she doesn't want the thing her people view as SUPER IMPORTANT to die with her here. I am... unsure about when I'll start that up but she's definitely due to make a post mentioning things related to such matters soon. Which might be relevant to spirit medium interests?!

Otherwise she's always available to detect any especially angry presences around the people who might have killed them. OR SOMETHING. I started rambling way too much with this and still ended up nowhere conclusive.

Hi.
Hi.

This Snake in your lap is yours if you should want him... :>

[gunplay]

Yes that is a good place for Snake.

But hmmmm what kind of thread should we do in the future? Anything you're leaning towards?

[stay_classy_cat]

Seth is kind of dripping with power right now. BD It might be fun if people start sticking their noses into drug investigations, if Ocelot is interested, that his assistance might be requested. Unfortunately I'm NOT SURE right now how to work it in since 1) Seth would be just as liable to backstab Ocelot no matter how much like likes him (SORRY), 2) let alone Seth isn't aware that spy-things are Ocelot's specialty and 3) It'd probably be more fun to involve other players get spied on/spyed for, and I'm not sure the drug investigations have ahhh... congealed that far, yet.

I actually have some ideas regarding Samus and missions in space but those are tentative and again, not sure how well it'd work integrating Ocelot into but MAYBE I could snag you privately and maybe better brainstorming can happen if I tell you about the end-game plans.

OTHERWISE... Rick just got some awesome COWBOY BOOTS FOR CHRISTMAS and looks kind of like a blonde Snake and would totally flip out if a dude started hitting on him so THERE'S THAT.

[gunplay]

ooh mr seth ooh

Yeah I'm fairly lost on the drug plot and not sure if Ocelot has a place in it, but if there's a space for him that makes use of his SKILLZ that would please me. If not, maybe he could at least go do some drugs with Seth idk.

Y'know, earlier I was thinking about inquiring with you mods about whether it would be possible for Ocelot to get some sort of higher up trust in Smash. Like a direct link to Master Hand or something. Perhaps doing some work for him or even spying for him. Just some sort of position that would reflect his status in the games, allowing him to do real spying. I've been RPing him various places for over 4 years yet never had a good opportunity for it, so even if it's a shot in the dark it's worth asking.

Oh god Ocelot in space... THAT MIGHT BE COOL....

Aww yis hot cowboys. Ocelot's all over that.

[stay_classy_cat]

Let's chill out and get high. I'LL LET YOU KNOW if something comes up where Ocelot can make use of his skills but the way it's structured I don't think it will really let him shine in that regard.

Something like a direct link to Master Hand HMMMMMM, I like I like. Master Hand is portrayed as a bit more benevolent here than he is in Brawl, serving as just a guiding hand of sorts. However, we've been eagerly anticipating and discussing on and off some darker, deeper undertones in Smash, and maybe with Ocelot we can make them a little more prominent? We'll talk about it next modchat and see how dark is too dark for this game.

Re: Ocelot in space, I am suddenly reminded that I made up a mysterious gentleman contact for Samus as an excuse to get her on missions and plots once in a while, actually, and he's a pretty malleable force--AGAIN I should probably snag you privately to detail that, if any of that strikes your fancy.

Hot cowboys on Adventures.
