Welcome to the June 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!

Player Name: AC


Character Name: Ritsuka Fujimaru
Canon: Fate/Grand Order
Age: 21 thanks to two years in Kaisou
Type: OU

About: Cheerful, friendly, outgoing, and packed with way more trauma under the surface than anyone her age ought to. Apparently that's what happens when you spend 3+ years saving the world from various threats instead of going to high school. Is finally trying to find a semblance of 'normal life' for herself here in Kaisou.
Typical Activities: Works at the Vogue, spends a lot of time exploring Hyrule with Yasuho, occasionally goes to pester Edward on the Jackdaw, generally spends a lot of time visiting/doing things with friends and family! Takes a few classes at Cygnus now too. Gacha has apparently decided to make her a pokemon trainer so she's out with her menagerie a fair bit too.

Looking for: I'm down for just about anything! Ritsuka's by far the easiest of my three for getting along with people, so it's easy to handwave stuff.


Character Name: Beredvyn of Nal (Meredith Nelson)
Canon: original character
Age: 26 thanks to time in Kaisou
Type: Normal AU

About: Midwestern gal who likes sports and swordfighting and was working on getting her career off the ground when a weird app showed up on her phone. Things have only gotten weirder since, and she's distinctly less than thrilled about it. Has a 'pet' griffin and is trying to deal with the fact that her cousin no longer remembers the app but she's still stuck in the middle of this craziness.
Typical Activities: She (somehow) still has a normal job, her main hobbies are sports and HEMA, so mostly she's interacting with other app-users on, well, the app. Or helping out as much as she can when something goes wrong/a new gate shows up. Basically she's Around but usually not getting too involved with shenanigans. Usually. Still now great at controlling her monster form, she hates this.

Looking for: Again, I'm down for whatever! Lucy (who's no longer on the app) is her cousin, but I'd certainly be open to other relatives/prior friends/etc too. Meredith can come across a bit strong, especially if she's feeling opinionated or worried, but she'll very much stick with anyone she does care about and is more than willing to lend her earth-element powers to anything from combat to stuff as mundane as literal heavy lifting.


Character Name: Knuckles the Echidna
Canon: Sonic the Hedgehog (Paramount film series)
Age: 17 counting Kaisou bday
Type: OU

About:A teenager red echidna alien who's far too serious and far too naive for his own good. Likes grapes and punching things. Is actually maybe putting some effort into attempting too make connections with people but is. really not good at it. At all.
Typical Activities: WARRIOR TRAINING. Which consists of running his obstacle course in the woods, primarily. In his free time he tends to wander around, and now with the whole barrier and spirit realm thing frequently goes patrolling for stray monsters. Also regularly visits Meropide because Wrio is teaching him the sport of boxing! Or trying to, at least.

Looking for: KID NEEDS MORE FRIENDS and a friendly(?) rivalry or two wouldn't hurt either.

NEW CHARACTER - Anby | Zenless Zone Zero | TBO AU

[personal profile] burgersplease 2025-06-05 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Yuff
Character Name: Anby Demara
Canon: Zenless Zone Zero
Age: 28-29ish!
Type: Black Order AU

About:
In canon, Anby is a clone who was created to be a soldier where she was considered the best of the best, but after a bunch of bad stuff happened, she bailed that life and began working with the constantly broke odds-job group called the Cunning Hares. She acts more emotionless than the actual robot in her team, loves movies (to the point of failing to tell fiction from reality), and insists burgers are all you need in life food wise.

So you know, your typical burnt out gifted-child millennial.

AU Plans:
I'm still working out the details, but I'm thinking Anby spent her early years with Krusnik until she bailed (and under conditions that would've made her look bad to the rest). Not sure what happened after that, but eventually she joined up with the Black Order where she's spent most of her career in Team Florida due to her burnt out low performance. Only recently did she get a transfer to the Kaisou unit.

Also sorry Krusnik siblings she'll probably ghost most of you because Anby's MO for dealing with family drama is to pretend you're dead. This definitely won't blow up in her face

Looking for: Fellow Black Order members and people who might have known her before she joined the Order! with Krusnik she was probably only with them until about 2007, so she left long before a lot of you kiddos were old enough to remember oop.

Even if he's retired now, Husk has been in the order for decades and often got saddled with keeping an eye on the younger members while they get used to TBO life and missions. And if nothing else, he was a spy who got sent all over the damn place - so there's a good chance he and Anby crossed paths more than once there.

man it would've been great if he worked as a mentor for her! She's one of those who clearly is real good at combat stuff and would've adjusted to that part fine, but her common sense is uh......... lacking.


Also she really would argue for mcdonalds over taco bell.

God yes, he absolutely have been there, trying his best, slowly losing the will to live over it- the good stuff!

Oh god, I expect they had so many arguments about that. Because she is fundamentally wrong, wow.

Tacos are Mexican Burgers is a cursed argument she made at one point, I'm truly sorry.

Anby, no.
