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!

Persephone | Stray Gods | OU

[aslowburn]

Character Name: Persephone - she also goes by MANY OTHER NAMES.
Canon: Stray Gods
Age: Infinity. Her current body looks like she's in her early 30s.
Type: OU

About: That Persephone. The Goddess of Spring, the Queen of the Dead. She comes from a world where the Greek Pantheon are known as "Idols". Essentially, they pass their life force into another person and then their memories slowly start to merge with the new life. Think like the Trill in Star Trek, but with GODS. Lots of fun! Her latest life is a chick called Chastity who was a mob wife in the 1950s. Persephone murdered Hades and is not afraid to tell people about that - she was VERY much not okay with being married and has a lot of bad blood with her family for letting that happen. There was a whole musical murder investigation for her dead ex girlfriend before she came here. She came into Kaisou just over a year ago and while she still wants to go back home to her duties.
Personality wise, she's pretty abrupt and stand-offish. She doesn't trust people, and gaining her friendship is difficult. She can be quick to anger and will hold an insult forever.
Typical Activities:
- She lives in a town house with Meredith, so you'll see her there when she goes home for the day.
- She technically owns the Cottage Vash et al. live in, and as a result goes there every morning to keep the plant life flourishing. Do they have more food than they can handle? Too bad!
- Otherwise, you're likely to see her in outdoor places, like walking best boy Cerberus. The doggo is VERY friendly and loves you to throw a ball. Persephone's just tired of it. She wishes he was more ferocious.
- She has a shrine in Cathedral Hill, so she goes there on the daily to gather whatever offerings have been left for her. Thanks!

Looking for: She likes to sit and talk to other gods! You guys are better than her family. She's not very sociable and you have to work hard to get on her good side. She prefers people she can have a quiet conversation with over a drink (alcoholic or otherwise).

So would you say these two have been housemates long enough to be on a nickname basis by now or nah? :|a

[aslowburn]

Persephone isn't one to use nicknames herself, but she would definitely tolerate Meredith if she wanted to use one!

[thewarriorqueen]

Just casually addressing a real, actual goddess as 'Seffy' or something, it's fine, nbd

[droptheious]

It's fine!! Totes normal!!

[thewarriorqueen]

Nothing weird about this whatsoever!!

On another note I had the thought of Ritsuka being like. the person to deal with angry patrons at the Vogue because she's just so nice by default nobody can really STAY angry if they talk to her for long ahaha

[droptheious]

Oh perfect. She can just outlast them by being excessively nice. Zulius will just ask for her to be RELEASED.

[prunedworlds]

She's got that twofer combo of being able to be genuinely nice to basically anyone AND is virtually impossible to intimidate at this point.

Because you really can't be meaner to her than some of the crap she's been through in canon AND you can't be scarier than it either.
