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: Ace D. Portgas - Adelino Dário Português
Canon: One Piece
Age: 21 - him birthday was 1/1, the baby boy finally made it to 21
Type: Paranormal AU

About: In canon, Ace is a laid back, easygoing pirate with a stubborn streak, chip on his shoulder, and Anger Management Issues when it comes to Family. He's very much a leaf in the wind kind of person, drifting where life takes him without pushing too hard one way or another. He's also someone with absolutely no social anxiety and half a braincell, it's amazing he ever manages to stay alive even without the way he'll dig his heels in and never back down from an insult even if it kills him (spoilers, it did).

In Kaisou, Ace is slowly beginning to use his brain for the first time in his life. He's started remembering his past life, is pretty sure something is weird about his magical abilities (you know, other than the fire that's followed him his entire life), but he's yet to realize he's either possessed or that he's an actual by blood dragon. Right now, he's just kind of a pest of a man who has a bit of a reputation for being a harmless idiot himbo you should never ever not once led money to.

Oh, also, his mom disappeared into the spirit realm a little over a year ago (it's fine, she's done that before, that's how Ace happened) so he's trying to track her down. Also he hoards American West memorabilia like any good cowboy dragon would do. And he's the most narcoleptic sonofabitch to ever exist. You can thank his scaly ride-along for that.
Typical Activities: Ace kind of just goes with the flow, when there's no crisis going on. He works very rarely for Doordash and will shove a business card for his own non-existent business at anyone who will stop and listen to him for five seconds, but mostly Ace wanders around the city following any sights, sounds, or smells that interest him. He doesn't really have a routine, but you can be sure that he'll manage to sniff out anything even remotely chaotic, if just to laugh and watch.

Looking for: Anything, really! He recently became sworn siblings with Vex, so any De Rolo CR will know of this weird crytpid extended family member, most likely.

Also, if there are any characters with ties to Brazil, his mom is originally from Rio and Ace is bilingual and very raised in his mom's traditions, so that might be fun to bond over! I'm also open to any established CR relations in that way! He doesn't have direct siblings in this AU, but cousins are always an option. Also, his mom worked as a substitute teacher while raising Ace, but also had regular doctor visits in Kaisou due to traumatic Fire Damage some 12 years ago, so medical folks probably know of Ace's name through his mother that way, as well.

So I don't know if I'll do it for February or not but I definitely plan on bringing back the Denden Mushi Tank sidequest, which, fingerguns,

But that aside you can definitely assume two things- one being that Grandma will regularly appear with cookies, the other being that Jonathan will regularly ask Ace if he wants to see fossils.

Or spar

Or both

FRIENDSHIP....
