Character Name: August Villareal
Canon: OC, technically a Devil May Cry Valor character

AU Name: N/A
AU Type: Super involved with the supernatural like holy shit
Age: Twenty-two!
AU Occupation: Social media kinda famous in the "tailor/fashion" and "pagan" circles, also a college student (business)
About: Okay so the OG August is a half-demon son of a prince of Hell. Here...well, he's not a half-demon (yet), but he was just fucking born with shadow magic and he is like 98% certain his mom totally fucked something from the Spirit Realm? Like. He's pretty goddamn sure that's where she went! What the fuck, Mom.

Anyway, he was raised by his aunts at their bird sanctuary, he has a familiar that is probably a raven named Julian who likes to carry knives, and he will have recently moved to Kaisou because what the fuck is going on over here.

Also all of his magic is channeled through his tarot cards, and his fortunes tend to be scary accurate. (In the OG version, they're always accurate, but I am just assuming that'll have to be nerfed here since. Yeah.)

Looking for: He's hilariously prickly so pre-exsisting friends aren't super likely, but folks who follow him on social media or people who ordered custom clothing are totally fine! Same with classmates.


Character Name: Jun'ichi
Canon: DnD Homebrew

AU Name: Jun'ichi Izumi
AU Type: Also super involved with the supernatural, but only recently
Age: 25
AU Occupation: Good Fucking Question! (In Japan, he often did proxy orders for people out of the country and worked as a host until he was about twenty. Also possibly has an OnlyFans, haven't decided on that one yet.)
About: So, the OG Jun is a blind foxkin warlock bound to the Summer Court and also the future king of the Court (once he dies). OG Jun is also 35 with a son.

Here, he's just a seemingly normal blind Japanese man who recently moved to Kaisou for...some? Reason? Not entirely sure how or why? But he's here now! No son, however.

On the off chance you've played against Jun before, the main difference between OG Jun and this Jun is that this Jun never had the whole "btw you're saving the Summer Court" destiny thing, so he still thinks he's nothing special and tends to sort of side-step compliments. Still impulsive and kinda selfish, though.

Looking for: Okay so the reason Jun would be in the States (aside from the whole Supernatural Shenanigans thing) would be very similar to what gets him to the capital in his OG; namely, he needs a rich and somewhat powerful benefactor. I can NPC it--in canon it was the Summer Queen--but if anyone wants or needs a charmer for their heists or whatever and doesn't mind that he has a Weird Seeing Eye Dog, Jun'll be great for it!

Otherwise: other recent arrivals-to-the-States, people he did proxy orders for, whatever!

Other Options: because seriously I have a lot: Deuce Spade from Twisted Wonderland, Rufus Shinra from FF7, Lio Fotia from Promare after a rewatch....

If nothing else, Jun probably recognizes August from social media stuff since he definitely browses fashion Instagram for ideas.

And since we both have a character named Jun, name mix-ups are a must I believe.

Yuff | Jun Kohinata | Tokyo Xanadu

[personal profile] whiteshroud 2021-12-29 11:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Yuff
Character Name: Jun Kohinata
Canon: Tokyo Xanadu

AU Name: n/a!
AU Type: I HAVEN'T DECIDED. I think it'll probably depend on what the rest of his CR is doing
Age: 18 (aged up slightly to make it easier)
AU Occupation: Jun is an art student! Either a senior in high school or a freshman in college, haven't decided yet.
About: So in canon Jun was a kid who got raised by a hardcore church group to fight monsters, making him very emotionally stunted. I haven't figured out his backstory yet, but I do want a degree of normalcy to his life-- more so than his canon self. He's less involved with monster fighting and more into pursuing an career in either animation or comics. He's still very much a giant anime nerd, and is somewhat on the introverted side of things.
Looking for: Give me family and friends! I haven't worked out hard details for Jun beyond "art student", so I'm very flexible and I just love AU families ok. Give them to me.

comburst: (Kingpin)

Maggie: Katsuki Bakugo (MHA) / Minato Arisato (Persona 3)

[personal profile] comburst 2021-12-29 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Maggie

SO I am interested in two people. They are:

Character Name: Katsuki Bakugo
Canon: My Hero Academia

AU Name: n/a
AU Type: I wanna say paranormal but I'm wide open to thinking thoughts
Age: I'll probably age him
up to 18 but that could also change. I am spitballing stage still.
AU Occupation: I am thinking a chemistry student and then he has a barista job he hates or something!
About: He's an over-achiever who is improbably good at too many things and also he has a huge temper problem. I'll hammer him out more as I talk to people but I don't want him too different from canon! He just has different goals and can't blow people up with his sweat (yet :])!!!! However I like the idea of him being involved in the paranormal somehow.
Looking for: A family, friends, and people he hates for absolutely no good reason like a loser

AND MY MAYBE SECOND:

Character Name: Minato Arisato
Canon: Persona 3

AU Name: n/a
AU Type: Him being a normal dude is my jam and then he gets thrown into all this. That's my take.
Age: Thinking late teens or twenty at most?
AU Occupation: He's that one college student who sleeps through every class. Oops.
About: I'd like him to have an average, chill life. Family, friends, a penchant for naps...nothing out of the ordinary but he's a nice guy who tends to eat and sleep a lot. He has no idea wtf he wants to do with his life also.
Looking for: Give me family or give me death

I love both these boys Maggie.

Since Jun and Bakugo are around the same age, maybe they've been classmates for awhile? Like they went to high school together so they are familiar with one another.

As for Minato, perhaps maybe cousins? Both of them are pretty easy going people so they just. Vibing.

double_sharp: (undefined - Imgur (10))

Silas | Multiple Options

[personal profile] double_sharp 2021-12-29 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Silas
Character Name: Riku Nanase
Canon: iDolish7

AU Name: N/A
AU Type: Can see and communicate with paranormal things, but still considers himself an average person
Age: 18
AU Occupation: Student/Part-time worker
About: In canon, Riku is an idol with the group iDolish7. He's the center of the group and is considered the best singer. He became and idol mostly due to his brother Tenn, wanting to show his brother that he could do it even if his brother didn't think so. His asthma does keep him from being as energetic as he wants to be and is something that can at times hold him back.

In the AU he had dreams and aspirations to become an entertainer, but due to his health and financial hardships, gave up that dream. He's a college student instead and works a part-time job or two to keep pay for school/living in general. Is an otaku when it comes to idols.
Looking for: Would love a few friends! Family might be neat, but in the long run it's whatever people throw at me.


Character Name: Chongyun
Canon: Genshin Impact

AU Name: I WILL THINK OF A LAST NAME....
AU Type: Yes. Or at least wants to be. Depends on CR
Age: 18 (no canon age, so this seems safe)
AU Occupation: In training to take over the family business/student
About: Chongyun is an exorcist in canon, but due to his huge Yang energy, the spirits tend to run away from him. He is aiming to be the best exorcist in Liyue and takes it super seriously. Despite his size, he wields a claymore, and prefers to use Thaumaturgy over his Cryo abilities.

In the AU he would be a polite young man who tries his best to represent his family, so he doesn't appear overly friendly. Is actually rather socially awkward, and so not up to date with modern trends. Does like watching ghost shows and believes all of them are real until proven false, which is a disappointment.
Looking for: Friends would be great!

I do have possible ideas Roxas and maybe another, but these two are my strongest contenders atm.
whiteshroud: (jun24)

[personal profile] whiteshroud 2021-12-29 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Since Chongyun and Jun are around the same age and have an interest in ghost stuff, perhaps they know each other through that? Jun would 100% tell Chongyun about any random creepy pasta story he finds just to see his reaction to stuff.

Player Name:Kitty

Character Name: Naoto Shirogane
Canon: Persona 4

AU Name: n/a I'm a basic bitch and names are hard okay
AU Type: Going with Naoto being aware but fairly new to the paranormal.
Age: 16/17
AU Occupation: Student
About: So Noot is a bit more mundane here compared to P4. Instead of being an official detective, I'm thinking of having her just being a seemingly normal student. Her parents are still dead and she lives with her grandpa, I'm considering him being a bookstore owner. And Naoto being a massive crime novel nerd via that. Socially awkward and lives in her books because people hard.

At some point before the game she's become aware of the supernatural and is learning and investigating that. We're scooby-doo now.

Also secretly runs a Tokusatsu blog...
Looking for: I hate this question... Uhh, other newbies to the paranormal, mentors, other students at her school?


Character Name: Futayo Honda
Canon: Horizon on the middle of nowhere

AU Name: n/a
AU Type: Completely normal unlike canon
Age: 17
AU Occupation: Student
About: In canon Futayo is a massive weirdo. Her dad is basically a manchild who loves swords and raised her since she was a toddler to fight so she wouldn't get bossed around.

So I'm making her completely normal here. She's just the jockyest jock to have ever jocked. Her grades kinda suck but she can sport. TBH I just want to mess with her regaining memories of her canon self and screaming at things... Like that time she tried to cover up an attempted murder by actually murdering the guy. (It's fine, she just misunderstood)
Looking for:... I got nothing. Sports buddies?

[personal profile] demonique 2021-12-30 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
tbh i'll probs add more later she's just the first idea i had-

Player Name: Jay
Character Name: Aurelija "Aure" Spica
Canon: Original

AU Name: Aurelija Sepetys, she will still insist on being called Aure
AU Type: Paranormal!
Age: 19-20?
AU Occupation: Astrophysics student who works part-time at the college library. Also does a lot of volunteer work because she cannot chill out

About: So in her OG verse, Aure is a the last of her kind and reigns over as Empress over her "siblings" surviving servants and the last of their subjects that clung to the belief they would all come back after a brutal war. They call themselves demons, but they're actually fragments of stars given life, and now she's on a quest to reclaim her fallen kingdom and fight heaven while she's at it.

HERE THO She's from Lithuania, though her family moved to the city when she was young and she's lived there ever since. Very much a highly anxious workaholic with a perfectionist streak. Also a massive anime/manga nerd, her biggest weakness is otome games.

Looking for: I'M HERE FOR FAMILY AND FRIENDS she's a bit awkward but actually genuinely friendly and likes to help others......

[personal profile] the_redventurer 2021-12-30 06:14 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Endless
Character Name: Adol Christin
Canon: Ys series

Age: 21
About: Ostensibly, Adol's just some swordsman from the boonies of Fantasy Eastern Europe with no powers and chronic hero syndrome. He'd fit right in with the average DnD party that isn't murderhoboing their way around, being weirdly good at blundering into the plot without particularly meaning to included. Unlike DnD however, "Adventurer" was not in fact considered an actual profession or even a thing people were rather than sometimes did in his world before he started calling himself that after protaging his way through a few JRPGs. He's a good lad, but there's nary a thought in his head except for adventure and adventure-adjacent things.
Time of Arrival in Kaisou: He's gonna arrive the day the game opens, because when else is a protag supposed to arrive?
What are they up to: Oh, he's going to wash up on the beach. Don't worry, he's used to this kind of thing happening. :)
Looking for: Well, it'd be good if someone were nice enough to help him off the beach. He knows nothing about cars. Don't worry about him getting startled and pulling a sword on anything though, he definitely lost his somewhere between either the space between worlds or the sea. ...Or lake. River. Whatever sizable body of water Kaisou has.

Or, y'know, friends in general. Adol's pretty chill, so he's not hard to get along with.

wilder: (that does suit me)

Yuff | And then there's this asshole | Tales of Symphonia

[personal profile] wilder 2021-12-30 03:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Yuff
Character Name: Zelos Wilder
Canon: Tales of Symphonia

Age: 22
About: Asshole.

But seriously, Zelos is the Chosen of Teth'alla, which is a fancy title for a fake religion and actually just means he's supposed to be sacrificial lamb for a genocidal 4000 year old middle schooler's science project to revive his dead sister. So as you can imagine, Zelos's got some issues. He's extremely cynical, untrusting, has self-hatred like whoa - often keeping people at arms lengths by acting like a flirty playboy dickwad.

On top of that, this Zelos is coming in from Kratos path - which means instead of learning about the power of love and friendship he just ended up dying. WHOOPS.

Time of Arrival in Kaisou: A year ago!
What are they up to: Since this is his opportunity to be away from the Chosen shit, Zelos has been keeping a pretty low profile about his identity back home. Because he's too spoiled to live on the street or on couches, he probably does work for Zodiac for a decent apartment. May also sometimes be found in the red light district, doing host work. He's not exactly in a rush to get back to his world, on account of being dead and all.
Looking for: People he's interacted with! Close friends is definitely off the table, but they can at least know each other in some fashion, positive or negative. Maybe you helped him get settled into the new world, or if you're of legal age-- maybe a past one-night stand!

[personal profile] nefilim 2021-12-30 05:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Jay
Character Name: Anastasia Fabre
Canon: Original

Age: 24
About: Highkey gremlin asshole in angelic form. Ana is a fallen angel who, through a series of unfortunate events, is on a quest to kill her angelic father and god while she's at it.

She's very much a chaotic asshole who does what she wants and enjoys picking fights for fun. Both verbally and physically. There is some niceness there, and when she likes you she is incredibly loyal. As in "will die for you" loyal. While still being kind of a jerk.

Time of Arrival in Kaisou: About a year or so ago!
What are they up to: She'll be working for Zodiac since they're her best bet to find a way home and also a source of income. She doesn't really care about any other aspects of them since lol she just wants money to keep herself afloat and while she's a skilled tailor, she doesn't have the patience or motivation to make a career out of it here.

Looking for: Anyone who had the misfortune of meeting her. She's cordial enough, but friendships aren't likely since lol... Maybe you helped her when she arrived - she's from a modern world but she would've been Displeased. Or any other Zodiac people to be questionable assholes with
wilder: (Ha....jerk.)

Player Name: Prince
Character Name: Abel Nightroad
Canon: Trinity Blood

AU Name: Dumbel Nightload n/a
AU Type: One could say he dabbled in the paranormal, but he is very much trying to live the Normal part of Paranormal these days 🤔
Age: Abel is (mumbles) years old, somewhat older than he looks but a precise age is (mumbles some more); maybe 30's? 40's? He looks late 20's,
AU Occupation: Abel's that guy who doesn't seem to hold down a job in one place for too long and has done a little bit of everything; the only work he's consistently kept with is working for a local florist because it's close to the bakery. If you want to build some CR assuming he answered a 'help wanted' ad at some point in time, let's DO IT... maybe helped you move house...? Fixed your plumbing or made it worse that time your apartment flooded?? Dog-walked your dogs while you were out of town?? Babysat your kids a few times?!?! Did deliveries for that ambitious paper mache pyramid scheme you built? I am all for it.
About: Abel's a mysterious creature, as Abels are wont to be; his childhood was spent abroad (and the details will remain intentionally vague as I'm still working them out with Yuff, AHEM) but all that truly matters is that Abel and Jun - who he legally adopted some years ago - are living their best lives as totally average, normal, super regular not-weird folk in a tiny apartment somewhere after moving to Kaisou about six or seven years ago. Abel's leaned into the whole single Dad-life, has like 329984 photos of Jun in his phone, and is generally insufferable about the whole thing. His hobbies include gardening, sweet things, having a weakness for redheads, following around anyone who makes the grave mistake of feeding him or being nice to him one (1) time, and drinking copious amounts of tea.

He's also possessed but who cares about that tbh,
Looking for:
❗ Friends!! Co-workers, new or old!! Bullies!! Bully this man, this is how 95% of his canon friendships work
❗ Grudging acquaintances!! People who reluctantly tolerate his existence!! Maybe you turn the corner and try speed-walking in the other direction when you see him, but it never helps and next thing you know you're stuck in a 2 hour long conversation anyway,
❗ Babysitters...... help, he might be an adult but he is NOT an adult and could use someone(s) to keep him in line
❗ People He Will Menacingly Fret After To Take Care Of Themselves, Yes, You
❗ Paranormal-related shenanigans, idk if having a possessed guy around pings on anyone's radar but who knew the idiot who just dropped the croissant in the street, looked around to make sure no one was watching, and then ate it anyway is That Possessed Guy
wilder: (laying in your bed)

[personal profile] wilder 2021-12-30 07:25 pm (UTC)(link)
REDHEADS YOU SAY....?

Zelos is probably a regular customer at the florist, claiming he's there to get flowers for different girls and hunnies. In truth, he's probably being paid by Zodiac to keep an eye on Abel even if he doesn't fully understand why himself.

Kay | bringing 2 idiots

[personal profile] motiv8 2021-12-30 08:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Kay


Character Name: Rean Schwarzer
Canon: Trails of Cold Steel

AU Name: n/a
AU Type: Just a regular dude to start with! It'll all go to shit soon enough anyway.
Age: 19, which may or may not be the same as his canon age.
AU Occupation: Rean's a college student!
About: Rean is attending college in Kaisou on his rich parents' dime, and trying and failing to find a major that actually speaks to him on any level. He feels awful about it and naturally is telling no one. He's pretty far from home, and doesn't actually reach back out to his family all too often. When he's not in classes, he can be found around town doing odd jobs for people that he picks up off of sites like Craigslist.
Looking for: GIVE ME AU FAMILY particularly younger siblings... anyone who wants to be a classmate of his or someone he's come across in his odd jobs is great, too!

----------

Character Name: Ris Bancroft
Canon: Original

AU Name: Iris "Ris" A. Bancroft
AU Type: Just a normie. She's going to wish she stayed that way.
Age: 18
AU Occupation: She's taking a gap year between high school and college and doesn't really have a job or any seeming interest in one.
About: Ris did not ask to be here. Her mother had an affair, had her, and then dropped her off with her... stepfather(? Probably? They barely talk, why bother clarifying that relationship) and waltzed out the door. Her mother only bothers to swing by when she wants to show Ris off, and her stepfather is so bitter and miserable about everything that he's thrown himself entirely into his work as a surgeon and his involvement in Ris' life is pretty much limited to the money he leaves for her to feed herself every week. No one really cares where she is or what she's doing, and as such, Ris doesn't really care much for what she does with her life either. She's not really looking to get hurt or worse... she just wants to feel something. Anything.
Looking for: Honestly, I'm open to whatever. I don't imagine close family would work all too well with her personality and AU backstory, or even with her regains, but if anyone has any ideas COME AT ME

Player Name: Rin
Character Name: Crow Armbrust
Canon: The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel

AU Name: n/a
AU Type: Mmmmostly normal but has ocassionally dipped his toes into the paranormal
Age: 21
AU Occupation: Grifter/gambler/scam artist (no legal employment, strictly under-the-table work)
About: Street trash with paranormal sensitivity.

An exceedingly charming asshole with a secret heart of gold, Crow's never really on the "right" side of the law but he hasn't done anything that'd get him real time....... or at least, he's never been caught doing anything that'd get him real time. He gets himself into shit, sometimes it's paranormal shit, but he just as often gets himself right back out of it. Very little seems to phase him.

He gets along fairly easily with most people but if he's got any living family, no one's met 'em. Not that he's anything less than tight-lipped about his past, he'll just brush it off with a laugh if you ask him. He's really good with his friends, usually in a backwards way where they don't quite realize that he's actually trying to help, but as for his enemies? Well. They learn not to fuck with Crow Armbrust.

He probably lives in a dive near the outskirts of the red light district or something like that, a real hole-in-the-wall place that only the desperate would rent from.

Looking for:
• "Work" associates (you know, criminals,)
• paranormally sensitive folk
• law enforcement types he's probably ran afoul of

So I'm thinking about sending my sorta-sketchy warlock-and-also-technically-faerie-mob-boss OC here AU'd as a sorta-sketchy recent arrival from Japan. I haven't hammered out what sorta-sketchy stuff he's in the States for but if Crow is down to maybe befriend a weirdly pretty blind guy (and former host/proxy buyer/also probably has an OnlyFans now) Jun is an option!

especially since right off the bat August would have zero reason to know Crow XD

Player Name: Amber
Character Name: Noriaki Kakyoin
Canon: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure

AU Name: n/a
AU Type: Normal!
AU Occupation: Student
About: In this AU, Kakyoin is Just A Dude, honestly. His family recently moved to the States because of Work Reasons, and Kakyoin's just getting settled in. He's got a friendless background like canon, but unlike canon, this isn't because of withdrawing from people he didn't think could understand him and more because his family moved a whole hell of a lot--and in this case, online gaming has helped considerably.
Looking for: Friends he already had are unlikely for backstory reasons unless he met them online, but new friends are very much welcome, family members and classmates would be A+!

Saffy | Here Comes Bad Decisions | FFXIV

[personal profile] thavnairian 2021-12-31 07:43 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Saffy
Character Name: Amal Vasiya
Canon: Final Fantasy XIV (sorry)

Age: 26
About: In his world he's the Warrior of Light, a.k.a. professional fetch quester and solver of problems, rescuer of cats in trees, etc. But if you scrub all that off, he's a 'reformed' thief from a tropical island who rebuilt his life from the ground up after fleeing captivity, and the exact kind of spoony... uh... dancer... that Tellah warned you about. He also has big honkin elf ears and he's covered head to toe in tattoos, so he stands out like a sore thumb in any crowd.
Time of Arrival in Kaisou: Six months before the start.
What are they up to: Amal is intimately familiar with the underbellies of cities, and while he might have more rustic skills compared to modern day anything, he'd eventually figure his shit out. I wanna say that he's been couch surfing this whole time as he is extremely hard to pin down, and takes odd jobs almost exclusively under the table as a cleaner, bodyguard, rare ingredient getter, stealing from rich people, whatever. One of the things I want him to find here is stability so he might eventually get a better job and keep it and be more recognizable, but right now he doesn't want the attention. Facial tattoos don't usually get you hired at the Kwik Stop.
Looking for:
• I'm totally fine with people housing this shady bastard. Let it be known he's an impeccable houseguest and will totally 1. pay for the trouble 2. cook for whoever he's housing with and 3. clean up after himself. The issue is that sometimes he just dips without warning and then reappears again after several weeks without a word, lol.
• Other people working in the shady underbelly of the paranormal world.
• People with ties to the law that he has almost certainly given the slip and they've got some Lupin shit going on.

wow, suddenly a position on the couch opened up for him at Abel and Jun's place whenever he feels like it!!! amazing how that happened as soon as food was involved,

maybe Amal and Abel met during some odd job somewhere?? Abel is kind of all over the place so they could have been brief co-workers on some short-term stint?!

Trent | Erwin Smith (Attack on Titan)

[personal profile] theomachy 2022-01-01 06:15 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Trent
Character Name: Erwin Smith
Canon: Attack on Titan

AU Name: n/a
AU Type: regular dude!
Age: 35
AU Occupation: A professor at the university. He teaches myths and legends.
About: Erwin grew up in a relatively normal family: his father was a teacher and his mother was a homemaker, so he had a lot of support growing up. His father was passionate in his beliefs, some of which were a little contentious: he had become obsessed with the idea of life on other planets, and it bled into his classes enough that parents kicked up a ruckus and he ended up losing his job when Erwin was still in high school. Though his father was discredited at the time, Erwin still picked up on his father's beliefs and clung to them, inheriting the passion for the unknown. Once he graduated high school he moved on to university, a charming student, if intense and sometimes unnerving in his fervor. Erwin dove into his studies and graduated with honors after working several semesters as a TA for one of the professors of myths and legends. He went on to postgraduate school and by the time he was finished his mentor was retiring, so Erwin took his spot as the quite young myths and legends professor. That's what he does to this day, and though at times during lectures he can get a little impassioned about extraterrestrial life his students normally take it into stride.

He really loves the X Files.
Looking for: anything! i'm already connecting erwin to levi (alison invited me) but i'd love to have more connections. friends from college, students, people from his alien chat forums, whatever.

Player Name: Alison
Character Name: Levi Ackerman
Canon: Attack on Titan

AU Name: N/A
AU Type: Prooobably just a normie
Age: Same as canon (30-something it is a mystery)
AU Occupation: Security at Kaisou University (probably)
About: I think it's safe to say that basically any kind of AU is gonna be an improvement over his canon life but for the moment he won't have to remember any of that shit. In the mean time he's just a regular dude who lives alone with a pissy cat and spends a lot of time playing a game that is definitely not World of Warcraft and definitely does not beat up teenagers at the university where he works (you know, unless he really has to). Beyond that, he's still a fairly unpleasant person who rarely cracks a smile and says bad words a lot, but deep down he's a good person. Really.
Looking for: I'm basically just repurposing this AU from a previous game and I don't recall having a lot of pre-planned cr, but I'm open to changing that! No immediate family (extended would probably be ok), but friends/former classmates/coworkers/other people who play his stupid mmo would all be fine! Probably not too many friends though, because he doesn't get out much (read: at all) and is socially kind of inept. It's very sad.

Syl | Narsus

[personal profile] courtpainter 2022-01-01 06:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Syl
Character Name: Narsus
Canon: The Heroic Legend of Arslan

AU Name: Acquiring the surname Sadiq because you can't just have one name
AU Type: Normie
Age: 26
AU Occupation: Insufferable art school graduate
About: The only son of a wealthy family, Narsus is rich enough not to need a day job as long as he lives within his means, and dedicates himself wholly to making very weird art. He insists that most people just don't understand the genius of his work.

His first big gallery exhibition in the city he grew up in was a great success, and he was hailed as an up-and-coming avant-garde voice in the art world; but what no one else understood was that he was being cautious for his first showing. His second exhibition, hugely publicized without much explanation of the content, centered dramatically around showing how the mayor and the city council were failing underprivileged citizens; while local activists thought he had a point (if rather naively handled), he upset basically all of his parents' old-money friends with that stunt. Which was fine with him, except he didn't realize how far their power stretched: they turned the press against him and his work, keeping him from getting any further publicity through reputable channels unless he wanted to dedicate all his energy to agitating instead of making more art. Refusing to play their villain, he ended up moving away to a lower-key lifestyle here, far away from all of that drama.
Looking for:
- Neighbors who have seen this guy out and about at the break of dawn messing around with colors and angles of light.
- People who may have heard about the exhibition that tanked his career before it could take off.
- Other artists/people who hang out around galleries and maker spaces. He lives pretty modestly these days and doesn't flaunt his wealth by hanging out with upper-class types or anything; he just doesn't have to worry about money.

Insufferable art school graduate, what a career.

Jun is a freshman art student, so perhaps their paths cross sometimes? He's more interested in animation and anime style than modern art, but I feel he'd at least be familiar with that scene.

Michi | An Shiraishi, aka some High School Music Girl

[personal profile] surpassion 2022-01-04 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Michi
Character Name: An Shiraishi
Canon: Project Sekai

AU Name: N/A
AU Type: Normal AU
Age: 18
AU Occupation: High School Student! Works part-time at a local cafe and does street performances at night (she's a singer/rapper).
About: In reality her core background in this AU is not hugely different from the original with the exception of this being the world she's always lived in. But it also lacks the presence of the group Vivid Bad Squad (and the supernatural presence of SEKAI and Hatsune Miku). Unless something happens in workshopping, she'd be performing solo for the most part, or just singing and playing with whoever wants to jam.

An Shiraishi is a High School girl who's carefree and easy going but passionate about music. Being the daughter of a popular retired musician, she's grown up surrounded by music and has always aimed not just to be as good as her dad, but surpass the best event he ever put on. She's energetic, balancing time for school, her part time job and her music. She sings, raps and dances; performing small unpaid gigs wherever she's allowed.

Looking for: I'm down for anything! School friends, people who would listen to her music and/or sing/jam with her!!, or even people who might know her from her cafe work.

Character Name: Nero
Canon: Devil May Cry

AU Name: Gonna go with Nox Miller for rn
AU Type: He's a normie, this is gonna be hysterical
Age: Around-ish the same age, so 24/25
AU Occupation: Basketball coach at Kaisou's local high school
About: Nox grew up in a pretty average family, with a mom and dad who were incredibly diligent in teaching their only child morals and manners. He enjoyed sports, but after an injury he was put on the bench to watch the games and be moral support. He discovered he actually liked being on the sidelines more than playing, so Nox took to being assistant to his coach for the rest of his years in school. He went to college outside Kaisou, but moved back once he got his degree. These days he's the local high school basketball coach, though he's actually a lot softer than he looks, and it's evident he cares a lot about the kids on his team.
Looking for: Dad-figures? Found family? People to sass with? People to also hold him the fuck down when he inevitably freaks the fuck out at the memory of losing his fucking arm? IDK the boy needs people, in general. I love some good cross-cr, and he'll need a steady foundation when he slowly starts discovering his demon as it awakens over time (at least, that's the plan). Basically gimme shit, we can wrangle it together and make it work.

miru | mulling over two possible options

[personal profile] epiprocta 2022-01-07 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Miru (hewwo I think Prince is kindly inviting me???)

Character Name: Minegishi Gen
Canon: Boy's Abyss

AU Name: N/A.
AU Type: Paranormal! He's not hugely involved in paranormal stuff but is familiar with it through his family, and has probably been trained to have some basic babby supernatural abilities.
Age: 18, aged up a year just so he's a legal adult in the US!

AU Occupation: Manual labor odd jobs, things like construction and heavy deliveries. Very unglamorous! Also getting into fights and shaking down other thugs for some quick change once in a while.

About: Pretty recent immigrant to Kaisou. His dad runs a shady business back in their hometown in Japan -- a construction company on paper, but mostly doing violent, shady underground work of the supernatural sort. It's been assumed since he was young that Gen will be taking over the business in the future and he resents it hugely; he recently got in a huge tiff with his father, who basically shipped him out overseas with just the clothes on his back to humble him for a while. (Also to use him to keep an eye on supernatural matters in Kaisou in case they can be taken advantage of down the line.)

Canonically a tremendously arrogant and insufferable shithead, he'll be more subdued here just because he's no longer on his home turf and is living the Struggle Life. Still quick to throw hands but only if it's justified. Comes across as a caustic, surly, stand-offish sorta guy in most cases, but if you can tolerate him for a little bit, it's easier to see he's mostly been shaped by shitty circumstances and trauma. (Also he's quite lonely, but he'll die before ever admitting it.)

Looking for:
- Coworkers? People he's worked with/around/in close proximity of before? He's probably easiest to stomach when he's working since he's the type to just stoically do what he has to for a paycheck. To working acquaintances he might even come across as, like, an actual, tolerable person!
- Distant family? Probably nobody that close but maybe having family here meant his dad had an easier time booting him out of the country.
- Paranormal folks of the shady sort? People he'd know (well or only vaguely) through his father's business. Maybe they've done a quick paranormal-type job together to earn some cash, even.
- Other delinquent-types? Either ones he's somewhat friendly with, or ones he's had a fistfight with before and would totally fight with again on sight, or anything in between.
- Neighbors, though he probably lives in a terrible shitty flat in the sketch part of town.
- D-decent adults ... the lad's never had a proper role model in his life, please.

=====

Character Name: William Vangeance
Canon: Black Clover

AU Name: N/A.
AU Type: Probably also paranormal!
Age: 26.
AU Occupation: ACAB but he's probably a supernatural cop of some description. Probably pretending to be a normie by holding down a more innocuous job -- something at a flower shop or gardening center, maybe?

About: A high-ranking fantasy ✨ magic knight ✨ and much-beloved national hero back in canon, but probably something much humbler in this AU. Some sort of agent who works with a big supernatural police organization, assigned to stay undercover in Kaisou for a while to keep an eye on things, maybe? Mostly maintaining a low profile, though he'll probably keep an eye on and/or go after anyone he thinks is really suspicious. Also he's probably possessed and doing his best to hide it.

Aggressively pleasant, polite and gentle, if a little mysterious just because he's so private. Generally easy to talk to and friendly to everyone, though quite scary and tenacious (while retaining that borderline-creepy genial demeanor) once he decides to use force for any reason. Always seen wearing this big ugly mask-visor-thing that hides half his face but, uh, don't worry about it!

Looking for:
- Coworkers and/or clients from his day job? Whatever normie job he has, he probably comes across as really competent and pleasant there, and doesn't mind getting to know the people around him.
- Coworkers from his other job? Any other cop-types (or other people associated with law enforcement?), so they can get drinks and gripe about work together.
- Paranormal folks -- either people he's deemed suspicious enough to keep tabs on, or super-sensitive people who might cotton onto him being possessed and are keeping an eye on him. How the turn tables.
- Friends ... probably no actual blood-related family since his circumstances are Complicated but who needs all that when found family is just as cute ... whether it's him cottoning onto people who might need someone to babysit them a bit, or someone realizing he's a ridiculous workaholic who needs people to nag at him to rest once in a while, or anything in between!
- Anything else tbh, I'm totally open!

AU Type: I am slightly leaning to regular dude! Though having a starter on paranormal powers with having none in canon (besides being very good with dragons which is just him being an advanced version of a cat lady) is really tempting. Wind user Hector Haddock...
Age: 22 I think!
AU Occupation: Engineering student! He likes to tinker. He is also a full time slave to his cat, and works part time at a hardware store.
About:
-Hector has always been a bit on the nerdy side which sucks for him occasionally since his dad is Not. His dad is very much the solid football sports etc type and is somewhat disappointed that Hiccup has never met a ball-toting team sport he actually didn't suck in.

-He definitely was in robotics club and did those mini robot cage match things, because they're fun and cool and he likes that kind of thing!

-Tends to be sort of restless and like to doodle and take notes and try new things. Always off in his own world but he doesn't like hate people! He's just sort of sarcastic and doesn't really always consider other people at first

-Gonna have him having the prosthetic leg, he lost it as a kid. Occasionally makes jokes about it.

-He has a cat he spoils who likes to basically make his life difficult, as all cats are duty bound to do.

-He's a local guy I'm thinking and didn't move to or from this place ever???

-Thinking his adoptive uncle owns a hardware store he works at. His dad is probably in politics somehow??? Like a city position of some sort.

-Someday his cat will be a dragon
Looking for:
-Roommate? Housemate? Etc??? Neighbors even!
-Family????
-Friends, fellow nerds, etc
-Please can someone make a dungeons and dragons group with him. It will be fun I promise
I'm technically mobile until the 11th so he has one icon until i try to fix that on my phone
