OOC INTRO & PLOTTING

Hello and welcome to Children of Bahamut!

This OOC post will be for all your introductory plotting needs! While there will be plotting posts for events once they officially start in November and on, we wanted to give everyone a space to outline their initial thoughts and plans to get started strong.

You can use the form below! If you play more than one character, you're free to make a top-level for just your relevant player information and comment beneath with each respective character.

You don't actually have to tell us all that, but we - and others - would like to know a little bit about you! Your interests, hobbies, and anything you think is relevant to know (such as schedule, tagging speed, etc.) <span style="font-family:georgia; color:#555;font-size:30px;font-family:georgia;letter-spacing:1px;text-transform:uppercase;text-shadow:1px 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5);margin-bottom:0px; display: block; border-bottom: #555 2px solid; width:50%;">⁂ PLOT WITH ME</span> <b>Character</b>: Your character's name <b>Canon</b>: Name of the canon you're playing them from <b>Canon Point</b>: The episode, chapter, book, etc. that your character is coming from <b>Age</b>: A guesstimate will do if there's not concrete canon age for them! <b>Dragon Bond</b>: You can copy and past what you got for your claim, or just tell us a little bit about them here for others to see such as name, type, and basic traits. <b>About Your Blorbo</b>: Give us a basic summary of who your character is and why they're a super cool dude or lady everyone should get to know. Or leave alone, if they're a bit more anti-social <b>Game Plan(s)</b>: How do you anticipate your character adjusting to being in the setting? How will they forge bonds with others and play nice? This is basically a summary of what your hopes for your time in the game are! <b>Interested In</b>: Similarly, what specific types of CR are you looking for? What tropes are your favorite to explore? Any quests in particular that catch your eye you'd like to see about getting people to do? <b>Anything else?</b> This is for anything especially important to note about your character, but also often the designated meme section.

As a few quick notes:

⁂ The Town Town Hall Meeting is up and serves as a game opening mingle! Our first real, proper event will be November 1st.
⁂ While a month might seem like a long time, we want to encourage people to use the the quest board to get themselves established in the community and building reputation if they want something to do!
⁂ Character claims are always open until we hit the player cap! So, please keep checking back on this post for new players or characters that might be added to ensure everyone receives a warm welcome!

Most of all, we want people to have fun and let us know if your character gets up to anything good, bad, or whatever! All of it will influence the world around them and potentially have benefits or consequences.

About: hi hello my name is chai and I'm a pretty average guy. I'm also one of your main moderators! I helped make this game pretty and iron out Owen's ideas in to event format, but he's the dragon guru.

other than rp, my hobbies mainly include rn watercoloring/art, embroidery/cross-stitch, & FFXIV. I'm on PST and work from 7am-4pm in that time zone but also WFH so I tend to be pretty available!!

⁂ PLOT WITH ME
Character: Rosie
Canon: Original
Canon Point: When she thinks she's McDead!
Age: 25 (physically), 340 (chronologically)
Dragon Bond: Rosie has Demora Luthric, a green dragon, in her brain! She was a therapist for veterans and loved being out in nature. Considering Rosie needs both of those things, this will hopefully be good for her!

About Your Blorbo (cw: mentions of sex work): If you combine the songs Blank Space by Taylor Swift and Fergalicious by Fergie, you get Rosie as a person. She's a hypersexual nightmare dressed as a daydream. She had spent her life the last few years before here basically being the person - specifically rich older men who want to fuck her - most desired in the moment. As a result, she doesn't really like to let people get to know the real her... because she also thinks the real her is pretty ugly, honestly. While quite emotionally driven, she is also emotionally dysregulated. She tends to be easily jealous, petty, and horribly insecure... But! She also loves music, cares deeply about those she considers friends, and truly just wants a quiet simple life with lots of dogs even if she fights against that and makes bad choices.

Game Plan(s): Initially, Rosie will be living it up and treating being here as a second chance at life. She'll enjoy simple domesticity more than she thought she would, too! Without trashy daytime TV entertainment, she'll also be forced to write her own friendfiction and matchmake / be a busy body in other people's lives.

Interested In: Eventually though, I want her to hit the wall of trying to keep people at arm's length for several reasons (that all mostly go back to being afraid of the connection) and feeling displaced, othered, and alone once again. Hopefully, this is where her dragon-soul can help her by 1) making it so she isn't literally alone and 2) trying to guide her to be a little more vulnerable with people.

Long-term, I also want her to find value in herself outside of sex & feeling like she needs to appeal to / be liked by everyone she comes across.

Anything else?
