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: Nico di Angelo
Canon: Percy Jackson and the Olympians
Age: 22
Type: Zodiac AU

About: He's a gay goth at a data entry job just trying to get through community college with a degree. Nico has zero idea what he wants to do for his actual career, but getting an Associate's should help in theory, right? Anyway, he is a Greek myth nerd with a chip on his shoulder, abandonment issues, and has a grudge against the moon (goddess).
Typical Activities: Nico can be seen around game stores, the Jackdaw doing intern work, and... actually that's about it. He participates in card game leagues to earn extra money (Pokemon, Magic the Gathering, etc), but he tries to keep to himself because why bother with making friends when he's just going to disappoint them in the future. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Looking for: Friends, rivals, family, and negative CR are all fair game for this guy! Nico can make it tough to like him and that's on purpose. Come bother him. He doesn't bite hard!

Given these two idiots are the same age and have likely been in Zodiac for around the same amount of time, I expect they're well-used to each other by now. Jax, of course, consistently pesters Nico with his bitch-ass pranks and generally being an obnoxious pain in the ass. Despite that, he probably appreciates how hard Nico makes it to like him- he's very 🤝 about that and might get the tiniest bit of respect for it. Not that it would stop him from being a jackass, of course!

[deathdiduspart]

YES pretty much from the moment their eyes met, the two of them were like, "That one. That's the one I'm never going to like." Nico will never admit that they share a common trait in trying to make themselves as unlikable as possible. He will not be analyzing that! Nope!! Get the fuck out, Jax!!!!!!

[jaxoff]

Yes! Immediate I am going to hate him forever and absolutely never psychoanalysing Why They're Like This. That will never backfire on them at any point ever!!! They're fine actually! They just don't like other people that's all wow!

[deathdiduspart]

What's there to analyze there's nothing wrong this is fine!!!! Sure Nico will actually help his fellow man but only so it doesn't cause trouble for him in the future! He's not ACTUALLY NICE!!!

[jaxoff]

Who'd even think that empathy can exist??? Only a fuckin weirdo that's who.

forget that shitty grandma u had before

this is ur new grandma now-

(Also since she tends to gift something to Everyone in Zodiac one way or another, she definitely gave him a knit sweater for christmas. he can probably zip the hood all the way closed, she's gotchu,)

GRANDMA C IS THE BEST
