July/August Round-up + CR Plotting Meme

[lucetimods]

Hi-ho, Lucetians! It’s your new mod Bayley here. Whenever you see these mouse ears flying by, I’ll be the mod close at hand. I’m very excited to roll out some new stuff for you guys! It’s the end of another month, the smell of apps is in the air, and we’ve got a few updates for you. Check out the deets below the cut!

Did you know we have a Luceti Workers spreadsheet? Whoa, awesome! If your character has a job in Luceti, go ahead and add them to this page! It’s also a handy reference for figuring out who works where. Look for this to appear somewhere on the Housing page soon. Speaking of, please review the Housing page and make sure your characters are listed in the right place! Having a place to live is muy importante.

While we’re on the subject of spring (fall?) cleaning, check out the Luceti Contact spreadsheet and make sure your information is up to date! Thanks for taking the time to do this.

Have a player plot? Cool. We want to plot around you! But in order for that to happen, we need to know when your cool stuff is happening. Use the handy-dandy player plot sign-up post to do so. This link is now easily accessible on the directory, so you won’t have to look too far to find it later. Make sure to contact a mod about your player plot before signing up on this post! Help us help you.

Now, a recap of recent plot developments! Back at the end of March, Lucetians were called upon to fight cultists in Region One, but were first sent to TERRACE, a formidable Malnosso stronghold in the sky. There, they, with other draftees and MSF soldiers, were ambushed by the Third Party and had to reclaim the airborne city before it was lost entirely. Over a series of days, the forces fought back against the cultists, eventually defeating them. It was eventually determined that these forces were led not by the General, but by a new and different sect of the cultists. They used unusual tactics during the battle and seemed to have intimate knowledge of the inner workings of TERRACE. The cultists managed to take it over by infiltrating the fortress beforehand and disabling its defenses prior to the attack.

In April, Lucetians were subject to a bizarre experiment that found them assuming the lives and storylines like those found in soap operas. Fortunately, there were no lingering effects.

In May, Carol and Specialist Davis paid Luceti a visit. While they were in the village, Gai Tsutsugami was able to obtain a key for the tunnels beneath Luceti from them. Using that key, residents were then able to access a new part of the tunnels (you can check out the details on that here and here). In the course of exploring the tunnels, Derek Bliss triggered the release of Twila, a Filial Spirit of Darkness. Villagers spent the next week possessed by various Filial Spirits, until John appeared on the network and characters began to discuss various options for depossession. Eventually, everyone worked out their alignment and got back to their normal selves, though Twila’s presence remained in the enclosure as a possible source of magic for those willing to learn it.

In June, Vash found a keycard on a skeleton down in the tunnels. After investigation from several of Luceti’s residents, work began to repair the computers down there so that the keycard could be examined. As it turns out, the keycard could be used to decipher passcodes for the doors down the elevator.

In July, characters working on deciphering the passcodes for the doors in the tunnels held a vote to see what door residents wanted to unlock first and discussed it here. The time for door-opening is almost upon us! Look for more details about this in the near future.

A few weeks ago, cultists under the leadership of Count Zompano invaded Luceti and Dream-Shifted the villagers into thinking they were 1950s-esque families engaged in class conflict. Though villagers had no suspicion anything was amiss for the first few days of the invasion, soon they began to realize little odd things that added up to a lot of wrong things. Many villagers started to question these oddities openly, only to be detained by police. However, unrest prevailed, and Shayera Hol freed John from imprisonment in the Bilruben Institute. The Shift barring the villagers’ powers was lifted, animals were freed, weapons were reclaimed, Zompano was killed by Saori, and Dream Shifters were defeated. All was well again, except not really! Event fallout, and all.

A week later, Carol addressed Luceti from within the barrier, explaining that the events of the weeks previous were the acts of cultists and offering her services as a liaison between the Malnosso and Luceti. She spoke with many of our lovely residents.

Carol also mentioned that the Malnosso’s best were working hard on modifying the barrier to prevent future instances like Zompano’s invasion. Great, right? Except it’s not all smooth sailing. As they continue to work out the kinks, Lucetians may notice a few oddities affecting them, in what can be termed “barrier incompatibilities”. These effects include (and ARE limited to):

Time slowing down around your character so they are moving much, much slower than everyone else

Cold and allergy symptoms (though there is no actual disease present, so taking Nyquil won’t help)

Sensitivity to sunlight

Excessive sleepiness/fatigue

Excessive dizziness that significantly limits mobility

The idea here is to give you guys as players more options when it comes to hiatuses, since there are some characters who won’t go on missions and mallynappings can lead to unwanted trauma. Keep in mind that these “glitches” aren’t a free-for-all; please only use the options in the list above to keep your character out of the game for awhile if you need to hiatus. There is no set amount of time that these effects need to last. If you have any questions, please direct them to the Mod thread below!

Meanwhile, for those who have been on a mission within the last week or so, there’s information circulating among the other volunteers from other enclosures. If your character is out there too, these are some of the things they may have overheard:

Several other enclosures were subjected to the same brainwashing as Luceti. Vaskoth was lost entirely and has given Count Zompano an additional five thousand soldiers, many of them powerful enough to be comparable to Elites. Tyrus was attacked, but like Luceti, they overcame the brainwashing and freed themselves.

Nobody has seen anyone come out of the enclosures Pagoda, Quell, or Zompania since the multiple invasions occurred.

According to MSF (Malnosso Security Forces) soldiers, the General’s forces haven’t attacked for several months. In fact, there hasn’t been a confirmed sighting of him since Luceti’s encounter with him.

Like Luceti, all the other enclosures are starting to experience these ‘barrier incompatibilities’. There is much bitching to be had.

There’s some chatter about the Kin’corans organizing some kind of information network. Nobody will talk to Luceti about this, however. Volunteers of other enclosures have been whispering to each other about such things, but don’t seem to trust Luceti.

Cave Johnson, former RP Manager and head of MARS (Malnosso Assignment and Reward Service), was recently promoted as the Project Head of Region Six, putting him directly in charge of Luceti and Kin’cora. The chatter among the MSF and other Malnosso workers seems to be that of disdain. There seems to be some talk about some closed door dealings in regards to a recent big trial involving him and a member of the MSF.

According to Tyrus volunteers, TERRACE is finally fully operational again.

Get ready, everyone! Applications open on Sunday, September 1st at 12:00 AM EST! Super duper. You can still reserve your characters on the Application Interest page, and it’s not too late to test them out on the Test Flight meme as well. Applications will be open until 11:59 PM EST on September 7th. Hop to it!

And on that note - did you know you can sign-up to help out with applications? Yes, you probably did. But in case you haven’t signed up before, please consider volunteering! It’s very useful to know who we can call on to help us with a canon we aren’t familiar with. Your time and willingness is invaluable! Thanks for pitching in.

Still with me? Good! Now on to the fun part!

CR PLOTTING MEME

In order to encourage plotting between new and old characters and players alike, we will be having a bi-monthly CR Plotting Meme that will accompany these Round-Ups. Below, you will find the appropriate copypasta in a magical text box, and we highly encourage everyone to use this opportunity to reach out to new CR and get some ideas flowing for the new cycle! This is no ordinary CR meme - we really want to see more than just, “Hey, let’s tag more!” We want to see, “Hey, your character works at Seventh Heaven, and mine is a foodie. Maybe yours can teach mine more about cooking!” Or, “Hey, your character wants to learn Filial magic, and mine knows it very well! Maybe mine can teach yours!” As you peruse CR opportunities, think about your character’s habits, where they live, where they frequently go, and so forth. Maybe your character has been passing their best-friend-to-be - or perhaps their best-frienemy-to-be - on their walk to work everyday! Be as creative as you wish.

And speaking of, here’s that magical copypasta:

<b>Name:</b> Your name! <b>Characters:</b> List all of your characters and give a brief description of what they’re up to these days. <b>CR Opportunities:</b> Break this down for each of your characters and describe options others have for getting CR with them. Where do they go? What are their hobbies? Do they work? Where do they live? Do they go outside a lot? What do they want to learn? If you are looking to branch out with a character, e.g. have them learn a new combat skill or Filial magic, mention that here as well! What do you want to do with them? Go crazy. <b>A good way to contact me is:</b> List the ways players can contact you! <b>Anything else?:</b> Whatever you want!

Go to town! Make plots, and most importantly, have fun.

And that’s it! Thanks for tuning in. Enjoy the appening!

[falenandawn]

Frey and Luke should thread more. Maybe something in the tea shop?

Also, that bit about video games and the battledome makes me think Teddy and Fayt should try taking on some simulated monsters together. Possibly in a fantastic setting from Elicoor or something.

[drawnbythesword]

Name: Kyo
Characters: Gold | Pokémon Special: Is currently trying to deal with the fact that all his friends have just been going home one after another. Currently unsure how he'll turn out when all is said and done.
Asbel Lhant | Tales of Graces: Will be dealing with Richard's plotthing shortly. Otherwise has nothing.
Haru Glory | Rave Master: He just had his Sacrifar thing go down, and he'll be waking up pretty soon to freak out and apologize and deal with the delicious fallout.

CR Opportunities:
Gold: Gold's primary hangout spots are the battle dome, the rec center, and the Seventh Heaven, so it's pretty easy to catch him there. He's usually either eating, training his 'mons, or playing some game. He's a very active guy, always out and about and doing things, so it's not uncommon for him to just run into people out in the village, or take interest in something going on on the network. At one point, I was going to have him take some interest in Filial Magic so he didn't have to rely on his Pokémon so much and actually be able to legitimately defend himself, but I haven't really found the opportunity for that yet.

Asbel: Asbel's usually seen meeting with friends at the tea, or training at the barracks or training school. He's pretty focused on training and improving his skills. He doesn't have too many interests right now aside from Tiger Festivals but that can change! I really want him to get a pupil that he can train in swordsmanship, so that's a thing that could happen.

Haru: Haru doesn't have any specific hangouts yet, although he does like to chill on the roof of his apartment building on clear nights and watch the stars. He also enjoys practicing his swordsmanship and being generally athletic too, exercising by going on a jog through the village everyday, but using Sacrifar's likely putting a damper on that since he'll be suffering from pain in his dominant arm for quite a while. He'll probably take to sitting around looking at the journal for a while, since it's pretty tough to train when you can't even hold your sword.

A good way to contact me is: AIM at shounenspirit or Plurk at mamoritai are the best ways to reach me.
Anything else?:

I found Nemo! :D

[zeropoints]

!!!!

Taku, I wanted to tag Cilan on the first event thread, but I was kinda swamped with other event threads and missed my chance.... DO YOU THINK MAYBE WE CAN MAKE CR HAPPEN ANYWAY IN THE NEAR/FAR FUTURE

I would love CR with Crow, too! Because hnnnng Fragile Dreams....

[blessingone]

Name: Yosie

Characters: Fenimore (blessingone, also known as "my only character"): A lot of her time is spent raising Sophie (lostlegacy) and doing her share of the housekeeping around House 34, but she uses what spare time she has on such things as walking, swimming, or reading (mostly comics). Since she turned 19, she's been getting increasingly antsy about her perceived unproductivity (she doesn't really count raising Sophie since she's not her kid and the task is shared), but she has no idea what she would do so that hasn't actually had any effect on her activities. After the spirit possession event, she took a section of the yard not covered by Grune's gardens to make a small patch of her own (though Grune probably often forgets and looks after it, too), as she had grown kind of fond of Faeren. Particularly recently, she went on a picnic date on the 17th down by the southern/eastern lake with Rei. Thread jury remains out on how that turned out right now. Oh and I should mention that a mission saved her from experiencing the AU and she's pretty happy about that, if a little confused about what exactly happened.

CR Opportunities: * Fenimore lives in House 34 with Grune, Norma, Sophie, Walter, and Oscar, which can be identified from a distance because Grune keeps adding to the gardens in the yard. She's usually reluctant to give the address out to people she doesn't know well enough to trust, but Grune in particular remains a large information leak.
* Raising Sophie restrains her movements to a certain extent, but when she does have spare time she is outside fairly often. In the middle of town, groceries need to be gotten and she sometimes browses the clothing store in order to weed out any Ferines-style clothes from people wearing them without understanding the cultural significance. When she's just out walking, she sticks to less busy places and often will stick to the outskirts/along the river (though on days she's in a particularly good mood, she can be found near the fountain even if that's really busy for Luceti). She also goes swimming (fully clothed -- it's a Ferines thing) in both the lake and ocean, but she often is reluctant to do so when other people are around, as she runs the risk of breathing underwater without thinking and revealing that her hair glows. Why is that important? Well...
* She's not human and has some trust issues with humans she doesn't know well (though she is fine with individual humans once she knows them). Lots of scars beneath her clothes, lots of trauma in her backstory. It's all dramatic and explosive and I enjoy getting to touch on that, but I try not to bring it up too often to avoid attention-seeking.
* Fenimore has been getting off-and-on training in the Kyoshi Warrior style for two years now. I think it's currently off? But she does still practice, mostly in the backyard of House 34. She's somewhat doubtful of the benefit as actual self-defence and at least partially does it just for the satisfaction of doing it. I have high hopes that one day, a draft or a mission will place her in a position to learn that, nope, it's actually doing her some good. This might set off its own issues at some point, but I'm already going on way too long as it is, so that's left for the future.
* Fenimore has vaguely been pondering learning Filial magic after being possessed by Faeren (seeing it as rescuing her from Twila, she's actually grateful about it). One day she might do something about it. She'll need a lot of help, though, because she's dreadfully bad at magic and her spiritual senses are really low for what I perceive as a pretty spiritual species. (She actually has her own magic from her world, but...dreadfully bad. Still mightn't be too bad to work on it one day.)
* Sometime in the near future, she's going to be asking for someone to teach her how to use the Battle Dome programming system. This will probably be a post when I have time for one. Her main goal is for entertaining Sophie (after hearing about an airship adventure courtesy of Cecil) and maybe educating her on her parents' homeworld, but it may have side-benefits.
* She likes to pretend she knows more about advising other people's romances than she actually does. So sometimes she sticks her nose into people's requests for help on dating. Other journal pings I usually have trouble pinning down in a general sense, though she almost never replies to things that she thinks will bring the attention of the Malnosso on her. She might try to respond anonymously if she really needs to, though.
* Oh and she has a big monster bird pet like nearly her size. Thanks to Grune's influence it is completely docile and pleasantly plump. It would be mildly dangerous if it was aggressive (like, mid-Tales-game random encounter), but that's not likely to be a problem.

A good way to contact me is: So I am on plurk (yobousiesho), have an email address (yoshimitaaki [at] yahoo [dot] co [dott] uk), and get notified for PMs. I also have AIM and Skype, but I would have to be poked on one of these other methods to be made to come on.

Anything else?: And yet despite all these words I am certain I've sleepily forgotten something. :|a Anyway, I tend to be quite slow in tagging, so one should be prepared for backtags if tagging me. I am grateful for the patience of the people I tag.

[precipitous]

does Shikamaru want Tony Stark trademark love life advice HOW COULD HE NOT.

Yes, that sounds great! it's definitely not something Korra would bring up herself, but she's being pretty obvious with how distracted she is, so he'd certainly notice it. We can make an appointments thread of it, perhaps?

And yes, convenience shenanigans always.

[prims]

Name: Lucy!
Characters:

Ikki (breezing) is having a birthday party tomorrow which I will throw up in the afternoon sometime, which is VERY BELATED, but hey Luceti was invaded during her legit birthday and then lots of people went on missions for their mental health and she wanted to wait for a few of them? She's also planning a sort of bash for the art club with Rapunzel for their one year anniversary: look forward to a post from Rapunzel re: that.

Prim (prims) is working at 7th Heaven and also stopping by the clinic for training from Ami (maybe also seeing Mia? idk) and is generally trying to learn what she can and help where she can. She has no big plots planned currently except dealing with the fallout of the event.

Trisha (bided) may post about maybe starting to help out at the grocery store, since it's personless and she wants something useful to do and worked at a store in the AU. OTHERWISE, she is probably getting to know Ed/hanging with her husband/will be trying to speak to people she got to know in the event + new people her ageish.

CR Opportunities:

Ikki: lives at House 56, and can be found in the yard there. Also attends school. She's really, really easy to find; if she's not at home or school, she's often in the fountain/shopping area, or the playground. She'll also hang out around the air gates. Short of that, just asking her to meet you usually works. She's liable to talk to anyone, but is particularly receptive to people who know Aang, Katara, Sokka, or any of her other CR people.

Prim: Lives in House 43. Works at 7th Heaven, attends school. Can be found hanging around the library and the clinic with great frequency. She also runs errands around town sometimes, or can be found outside her house, etc. She likes talking to people, and is especially interested in people Katniss knows/other people she knows knows.

Trisha: Lives in House 30. May be going to start working at the grocery store. Often in the house; plans to garden when the time is more appropriate. Runs errands in town, and can be found in generally usual civilian-ish areas. Never minds being stopped, either.

A good way to contact me is: Commenting, email, plurk - both of which are on the contact post, natch.
Anything else?: NOT REALLY.

[zeropoints]

where's the opt out option for CR with Panda

[contaeoro]

Name: Squiggles
Characters: Maiza Avaro | He's not as upset or affected by the event as he could be. Having different memories implanted in his mind wasn't a comfortable thing to come to terms with, but being uprooted from a certain lifestyle and having to adjust to something entirely different isn't completely unfamiliar to him. His family was someone he already was quite close to, too. He's going about his usual routine of keeping the house clean, making sure his flatmates are fed, and frequenting the library.
CR Opportunities: He lives in house 05 with Layton, Luke, Flora, and Czeslaw. He's not a major hobbies person, but if he isn't reading at home he reads at the library or outside, at the fountain. Sometimes he takes walks into the forest and sometimes there, he practices knife-fighting since that's been his pastime for years and years (centuries!) now.

A good way to contact me is: AIM@scarfandjackets | redscarvesandjackets!

[precipitous]

I do say. Let us kick butt and chit chat all at once. :|b WHEN SHALL WE DO THIS.

[distressedude]

Ooh that could be interesting! Though that could also be something to run by Alse, since if Tear is at all adverse to to idea of fragile Mister Fon Master Ion learning to fight, he might be hesitant to ask Frey.


....though that in itself could be interesting too. /creep

[corrinesbell]

I WILL WORK WITH WHAT IS GOOD FOR YOU pretty much, although there's also talk of a Fed Up With This Business Club meeting and I'd want Sheena in the village for that too. So it depends and I really hope it all fits in together like a puzzle.

[selfhelp]

Name: Akai
Character: Billy Kaplan (selfhelp; reality-bending superhero-in-training. Right now he's mostly doing magic/combat training and trying to be a normal teenager.
CR Opportunities: He's in the battle dome a lot, he works in the coffee shop, and he runs the LGBT Club ("Alliance") in the school, though it's for anyone who wants to attend. For more specific plotting, I'll be running something for him in October, but I will be announcing details on it later, so keep an eye out? :B

Character: Asch (dissonates); cranky swordsman with terrible social skills who tells it like it is.
CR Opportunities: He helps run Good Spirits and he's... well, getting better at listening to the ramblings of customers, so there's that. Standard battle dome/around the village applies. He's been spending a lot more time around the bakery these days, for those who'd notice... (HE REALLY NEEDS CR)

Character: Edward Elric (automailed); alchemist with two metal limbs (he usually hides them though) and a bad temper. He usually hangs out by his house or the library doing solo research.
CR Opportunities: He's good for missions if people want team-ups, since he likes to collect points for random stuff on and off. He also has a severely under-utilized alchemy commissions posting, for those who are interested in hiring him on. (HE REALLY NEEDS CR)

Character: Fluttershy (shying); super-shy animal-loving talking pony. What more needs to be said?
CR Opportunities: If you have/are an animal she will love on you. If you have/are a dragon, she will love on you. If you have/are a BIG dragon she will be terrified of you. ...What the hell, she'll love you even if you are people, but it takes her time to warm up to you. Honestly, though, anyone could just talk to her and be patient and she's super easy to get CR with as long as you're rated G.

Character: Ellie okay not yet but I'm prolly apping her I'm just saying

A good way to contact me is: I'm guynophobic on AIM and fontech on Plurk. More contact options are on the Luceti profile page, but those are the easiest ways to get me.

Anything else?:


wow this is super-short I'm slacking tonight SORRY GUYS

[halfnhalf]

Oh gosh, yes. INTRODUCE HIM TO MORE TEAS. Luke is so picky, so he's been very wary of trying things outside of his comfort zone. That's outside of tea, too.

o m g Teddy would absolutely love doing that you have no idea

[etherealblast]

Frey is definitely of the opinion that everyone in Luceti could at least do with learning some self defense though, given his experiences, so he'd be happy to help Ion if he asked.

Aha. That could be interesting, if there was some sort of friction over that....

[prims]

Things I want: Mia + Prim, Rue/Raven + Ikki, and also maybe TRISHA + NEPHRY? :|a

[halfnhalf]

ALSO!! Teddy runs Alliance, the school's LGBT club, with Billy, though anyone can join in! Billy's mostly in charge since he came up with the idea, but Teddy's def his right-hand man.

Re: PLOTPLOTPLOTPLOT

[prims]

ikki thinks he should DEFINITELY open a candy store

[etherealblast]

Well Frey's personal tastes are pretty adventurous, so he knows a lot about tea flavors, especially working in the tea shop. He'd be happy to help Luke there. Any other kinds of threads would be awesome as well.

Also clearly Fayt needs to drag Teddy into the Bequerel Mountain and Urssa lava caves so they can fight dragons. So many dragons.

[distressedude]

The big thing will be Ion wanting to get back into shape too, so he could probably ask Frey for help in that regard either way.

And yesss B)

[precipitous]

OKAY COOL, I'm flexible so we can wait until that has a date and then figure out when to make this a thing?

[zeropoints]

CR WITH THE THREE CHARACTERS I DON'T HAVE BUDDING CR WITH ALREADY >:'[

[etherealblast]

He could! Frey would be up for helping Ion in any sort of manner in that regard, really.

[cilantro]

Ahaha I don't blame you, I got swamped a little with the event too but YES, OF COURSE WE CAN MAKE CR HAPPEN ANYWAY. 8D

and aaahhhh it makes me really happy when people know about Fragile Dreams...

[shinesbrightest]

Name: Trap!
Characters:
Shinji Ikari (shinesbrightest): Shinji's been up to the usual lately, which... mostly just consists of existing! The event didn't really have much of an effect on him (because frankly, he's been through worse), so he's just been taking it easy, keeping himself busy and looking out for his roommates, Pen-Pen and Panda.

Jason Todd (curiositykills): Jaybird, on the other hand, didn't take so well to the event! He also may or may not have been secretly angsting over his birthday and having been here for almost a year. But he's mostly over that now! So he's also pretty much gone back to doing the usual. See below!
CR Opportunities:
Shinji: Shinji lives in CH4 with Panda and Pen-Pen! He's the responsible adult here (oh god), so he does the shopping and cooking for them, sometimes accompanied by Pen-Pen. Shinji likes to go to the roof and watch the stars sometimes and he likes to wander around the village listening to music, so he's not hard to randomly run into. He also joined the SOS Brigade a little while before the last event! As for hobbies, he has a cello, though he doesn't play it very much, and he spends his time reading, though not about anything in particular.

Shinji is eager to help people and usually pretty easy to get along with despite all his issues. I'm open to everything, of course, but I'm especially interested in him getting to know more like-minded people—other people who are shy or have intense self-esteem issues or are questioning everything about their existence... you know, the usual! It's been a while since he knew anyone who was just as self-loathing as he is, haha.

Jason: Jason lives in CH5. He's a restless kid who would rather spend his time out and about than locked up in his apartment, so he can be found around the village, too, getting into whatever he can. Particular spots of interest include the library (he'll read just about anything), the item shop (which he likes to raid for interesting things), and the restaurant (because hey, free food). Late evenings/early mornings are spent in the battle dome and occasionally stalking things at night, so if you're looking for weird hour CR, he can be all over that! His hobbies are music, training, and anything that keeps him busy because distractions are awesome.

Like Shinji, he's eager to help people any way he can, but unlike him, he's not the least bit shy. If your character isn't very outgoing, Jason is more than chatty enough to make up for it! He'll befriend them so hard. He loves to talk and he can easily strike up conversation with anyone. Out of the two, Jason in particular could use more CR, too, especially people that he can just be normal around and do typical teenager-y things with, so!! There's that.
A good way to contact me is: I am flowing runes on AIM and Plurk! You can add me or just send me a private plurk, either way. You could also PM either of my journals!
Anything else?: Not that I can think of! If you have any questions, or you really want to thread but you're not sure how to make it work, let me know anyway! My characters are pretty flexible, so I'm sure we can come up with something. c:

[endgames]

Name: Pi
Characters: Just Shikamaru here (endgames), from Naruto. He's a tactical genius (IQ over 200) ninja with a surprisingly good head on his shoulders, but is laid-back outside of serious things. He likes board games and clouds. Boring things.

Luceti-wise, he's been in game for three years now (on September 6th!), though he was canon updated in March and thus still looks 17. He's intensely interested in the world and politics outside of Luceti, and goes on missions every chance he gets. He likes to involve himself.

CR Opportunities:

* Shikamaru runs the convenience store in Luceti (it has a slurpee machine now)! If you haven't heard of it, it's right across the street from the Item Shop. He's there frequently in the days, and some nights.

* On this note, he's looking for more employees, particularly ones who could help make ready-to-go foods! Bento lunches, sandwiches, salads. Things like that. Regular employees are fine too, though! His current staff not counting himself includes Masaomi, Korra, and Naruto, so.

* I used to have him avoid the bar like the plague, but he's probably been poking around here and there in the last few months and will continue to do so with more frequency from now on. Not a regular customer, but he comes in every now and then for a shot or two.

* I would really love to get him some more panfandom CR, or further develop the current set he has in new ways. Between how busy work has been for me in the last few months and the Naruto cast explosion/his own depression, he's fallen a little off the wagon there.

* An adult/mentor figure he can trust to talk to about his problems would be nice too, somehow.

* Oh and he's allergic to water now, because of training with Twila. Douse him or wait for it to rain and he'll start smelling like a wet dog. If for some reason you want that.

A good way to contact me is: Pi90katana on both AIM and Plurk!
Anything else?:
