Welcome to the January Handwaved CR & AU workshop for Kaisou! We're super excited to have you! These posts are to help encourage old and new players to make new connections and find potential CR while designing your AU or figuring out what your OU character has been up to. If you're brand news, you can check out FAQ page and the app page to get a sense of what's going on!

If you're a player looking to app a new character:
Apps are always open for submission and get done the first and third weekends of the month. So once you got a clear idea of what you want, feel free to hop over to the application page! If you're already in the game, feel free to comment to this post as well to make new CR!

A reminder that in order to app either a Black Order or POKEGO AU you are required to have been in the game at least 3 months with another character. If you are rejoining the game after being gone awhile, you can count your past stint towards your 3 months, but it's recommended you look over the plot recap to see what you missed.

If you are a player with a character in game looking for CR:
You can use this post to comment with your character and established some handwaved CR or just come up with different ways for characters to meet!

Please fill out one of the forms below, and the comment around! Plot plot away! If you have any questions about the setting, either look through the links above or ask a question in the mod question thread below!

Character Name: Venti
Canon: Genshin Impact
Age: Oldest living grandma
Type: Paranormal AU

About: Venti is a very chill, very recently in the grand scheme of things God of Wind and Freedom. Unfortunately for him, the Church of Barbatos is now an officially recognized religious entity! He USED to be Merlin (yes that one, no not the Fate/ one the other one), and then career changed to be Shakespeare (again, not the Fate/ one), and it's currently enjoying life as a VTuber! His handle is HolyHimmel.
Typical Activities: He puts on regular streams for video games and his creative process as he creates new songs for his latest albums. Lately, Venti has been collaborating with budding VTubers and friends, as well as a new Rex Cam wherein viewers can observe the sleeping Zhongli in his small dragon form. Venti also does performances at The Vogue and is part of the gossip ring run by Zulius!

Looking for: I'm always open to Venti knowing someone through either his travels, streams, or other means! He's very much a social butterfly, and currently he's doing whatever it GODDAMN TAKES to fund his wedding to Zhongli because that man is a VERY expensive groom.

[pharmacologic]

I'm figuring we'll handwave archery lessons with Ratio since most of that's just repetitive activity, but he will keep being curious to know more about Venti, since he's started to notice he might be a little more than he seems

also, since Zhongli has taken an interest in a former citizen, Venti is also welcome to drop by the pharmacy anytime just to gossip

[venti_late]

Heck yeah!!! Venti just artfully being vague about it as they build trust before he drops some of the deep lore wheezes

EXCELLENT Venti will be so happy to give Baizhu the tea~ He probably goes there to pick up allergy medicine. cats.

[bebest]

Zulius hangs out with Venti EVERY day. Be it in the Vogue or online chatting about the latest gossip going on. Their contact has only increased, with Zulius doing his best to organise what is becoming the biggest wedding know to man or beast!

Given his relationship with Jun and POKEGO, Varian runs into Venti on occasion and is an awkward bean about it. Venti is just SO MUCH and Varian doesn't know how to handle him most of the time. But he does his best!

Husk ACTIVELY AVOIDS Venti, which of course means he probably gets harassed on the regular. Don't let the old cat get away from being actively friendshiped at! He needs it really!

Persephone likely will say hello to Ventu when she sees him. He reminds her a little too much like Pan for her comfort, but she DOES respect him as a fellow god and as such will at least say hello.

[venti_late]

HELL YEAH HELL YEAH Venti loves chatting with Zulius and giving him ALL the updates! Pretty much anything Venti hears online, he tells Zulius. I like to think that for Pride advertising for The Vogue this year, he will be inviting Zulius to do a live stream of reading AITA posts!

Varian's such a good bean. Venti probably tries to tone it down a LIIIIIITTLE bit with him since the poor kid seems overwhelmed but it's fine!!

VENTI WILL CHASE HUSK DOWN EVEN IF HE'S SNEEZING A LOT. GET FRIENDS, CAT-MAN.

Whenever Persephone says hello to him, Venti is always genuinely happy to see her and will at least do a little small talk! Like how the cottage is going, how Cerberus is doing, if there's anything interesting that's happened. Never enough to make her uncomfortable or keep her there for longer than she cares for, though.

[bebest]

THIS IS WHY HE'S HIS FAVOURITE FOREVER!!!! And omg yesssssss, Zulius will be ALL for this! He'll do voices for everyone and everything!

Varian lives in a constant state of Too Much so he appreciates this!

NO HE DOESN'T WANT IT LEAVE HIM ALONE.

Oh no that's adorable tho I love that! That's so sweet! She'd like that ;;

like the rest of the gods in this world, wriothesley is still super not sure how to handle having a face-to-face relationship with what's essentially a full-powered Archon.
Furina was stressful enough for him to think about before it came out that she wasn't actually a god, knowing venti is a honest-to-god archon makes him nervous at best. especially since he's in control of what's essentially an inescapable prison.

part of him WANTS to get along with the archons, but given the bad taste in his mouth left by the god of geo...

[venti_late]

I think Venti gets that and tries to keep his distance for Wrio's comfort, but he's important to Furina and she's one of his friends so he feels a bit like they're in a weird limbo. SO Venti's gonna try his best to do a balancing act and make it less awkward between them! It's a tall af order to get him less awkward with Zhongli but baby steps
