Timeskip CR Meme
While similar to the CR meme in some ways, the fields within the text area below are meant to facilitate planning and plotting so that by the time the CR meme rolls around everyone has a much clearer idea of what all has been happening and in what direction they are heading, especially as the timeskip looms large on the horizon.
Should you need it, you can always refer to the re-posted Timeskip Calendar for ideas! Characters have already been starting up businesses (coffee shops, playhouses, a P.I. office, even a business selling non-locket network devices!) so be sure to check it out!
If you intend to opt out of the timeskip, please PM the mod account with the dates/nature of your opt out!

As a note, please remember the following:
- There will be no new shardbearers, no monthly events (and perforce no boons). Monarch contact will be limited to include shardbearers highly ranked within their court.
- Fairy rings will be inoperable. Powers, abilities, and boons may be used to allow for fast-travel. Otherwise, characters must hoof it to where they wish to go.
- Lockets will not work. Characters would need traditional means to keep in touch, or need to fashion (or purchase) their own alternative means of magical communication. These alternative devices can be used on the network alongside lockets, and can be fashioned to interact with lockets.
- Border violence will be the norm. Small incursions and raids into enemy territory will be frequent. Unseelie in Seelie territory, and vice versa, will be hunted by patrols/town guards/etc. NPC guards may unexpectedly drop into threads where characters are in enemy territory.
- Boons all perform to their original specifications. None are depowered or vanished, though all would show the signs of age as appropriate for the passage of time.
- Influence and quests would continue to be given and rewarded as normal (one quest per player per ooc month), for our OOC sanity. PCs who are able to give quests are encouraged to have an expanded docket of them at the ready.
So, without further ado!

Javik | Mass Effect
( BASIC ★ INFORMATION )
Character: Javik
Series: Mass Effect
Court: Unseelie
Current Location: La Llorona, en route to Spire 3
Planned Travel: Everywhere?? The Spires for the first part of the year, and then he’ll be spending some time in Treun and Leathann. As discretely as possible, because hello Seelie territory.
General overview of recent events: After some dream sharing, he participated in the battle against Seelie forces.
Recent open threads/posts: Just the battle here, nothing more recent.
( DETAILED ★ INFORMATION )
Who are your character's known associates/friends/enemies?: Maglor, Effy, Ariadne, Ben Hawkins, Damon, Katsa and lots of other people he’s had repeated contact with. The man needs some real enemies.
What notable events has my character been a part of?: He was supporting cast in a few quests (Finding the feather thief, looking for a murderer in Treun) and had his own quest scouting out the Forodwaith prior to the battle. He took on a role as subcommander in Saber’s army for the second half of the battle, beat people up, broke Luke’s leg. Good times.
What can other characters easily ICly learn about your character?: He can be a real jackass and operates in a morally grey area. Javik is on the road a lot. He has two varren (magehounds) and a number of their pups are loose in the Drabwurld. You will find out very quickly that he thinks everything here is primitive as hell, and that’s terrible.
What information is limited to specific CR?: Personal details are kept close to the vest, even with those he’s known awhile. Effy isn't allowed to tell anyone that he can turn into a bear >::(
What information is my character willing to share/can be readily discovered if another works to uncover it?: He's the last of his kind and really bitter and fucked up about it. He'll never admit to being lonely, but sometimes it seems like he does care. In a weird kind of way. Effy put it best: "somewhere in that cold heart of his was a sad sort of empathy."
( BASIC ★ TIMESKIP ★ PLANS )
- ★ Travelling! He plans to hit up a number of Spires, and touch base with people there.
- ★ In the summer he’ll be heading south, attending but not participating at the tourney in Treun.
- ★ Varren puppies! Probably in June, and I’ll work out how many there will be soon. These will be available to anyone in the area, not just CR/Unseelie.
- ★ He wants to visit the Tower of the Oracle, and will probably think the festival is stupid. All festivals are stupid.
- ★ In September, he can help with translation issues. Protheans can understand any language, provided they can read the nervous system of anyone that’s speaking it.
- ★ He will be attending Samhain. Afterwards he'll be on a now annual trip to Loch Slaugh. Personal reasons :'(
- ★ I think I might sign him up for the Wild Hunt – failure either way will result in him being a bear for a week. Thankfully he has experience with this haha
- ★ In general he’ll just be travelling, and maybe available for mercenary work because money is helpful. I’m still looking for ways to keep him involved with court politics and maybe shard training for him. I'm open.

Tarz is a member of a certain sun-cult. He will be attending the Leathann festivities.
Also, the Red Hand is hiring mercs. If you wanna merc. Currently Diarmuid and John Grimm may also be involved. c: They can band together and make him cool bear armour in December, take him to a bar.
no subject
I will have him hit up Aly for that, definitely! Since neither court is in the mood to attack the other, he'll be bored shitless and want to beat things up. And fyi, if anyone tries to put a saddle on him they will be mauled.
Just a poke, but I sent you a pm the other day about some Other Things, not sure if you got it! Your inbox must look terrifying by now.
no subject
.... 15 still left. Long ones.
But there is light at the end of the tunnel.
no subject
SO the basic rundown: I want Javik to be looking into sun cult stuff, before he's in Leathann. He'll be wanting to track down any of the (possible) surviving Seelie commanders that killed Vridan. Once he's in Leathann he'll want to check out the Tower of the Oracle to pick out anything protheanish, at the very least just be conflicted about some vague legacy of his people.
In Treun he'll want to see if Debal plans on replacing that gravestone this year, and he'll help out where he can. I am very sorry that the varren pups will probably be born in his city and they may try to eat the governor. As for the riots, he's the last person you want running crowd control to calm things down, but he'll have Debal's back if things get too bad. He normally doesn't give a crap about debts, but he feels he owes him for Vridan's sake.
Aaaand I will iron out merc stuff later yup
gently edits this to say I think he'll be available for the golem stuff as mercenary work with Aly c:

The only problem with getting Javik to do this is repetition, and it's still the same place for him. Staying alive means never stopping, or getting into a groove. BUT Dorchadas is a big place, and it could work for the duration of the timeskip so long as he's got some freedom to go other places as well!

Natasha also won't be the first deadly redheaded human woman he's met, so she'll have that going for her at least!

UNRELATED TO NATURAL DISASTERS, come meet Vol'jin's brother, on account of the fact that the Visibly Not Human Club could use more members. :3
no subject
Yes yes, big green guys are hard to miss! Totally Not Human people need to stick together.

also wow if javik is going to be traveling, i want to ask your permission if it's alright for ben to check up on him via sight (aka looking throug his eyes) during the timeskip!! javik will probably iMMEDIATELY SENSE BEN'S PRESENCE but ben will not be there, he just wants to make sure he's ok. if the sight thing isn't ok, then i wanted to ask about sensing his presence, too. ben's own presence wouldn't be noticeable since it's a basic ability but it's basically just ben's way of making sure he's alive and what direction javik may be heading in.
also they should deffo hang at the tourney, and effy's going to be there too so TWO IN ONE YAY
no subject
I'm definitely down for him hanging out with both Ben and Effy at the tourney, you have no idea. He can gently bully Effy about getting out and about c:
no subject
also Javik and Ariadne should go hunting with their varren or something c:
no subject
Maybe during the Wild Hunt? Man, why would I even want to sign him up for winning, Bear Time is way better. Ariadne can have fun with that ahah. OTHERWISE any time, I'm not picky. He might be hovering around her Spire/Chateau anyways at the start of the year.
no subject
Works for me! C: Ariadne just like "Javik show me how to murder people with knives"
no subject
Yes, good, Ariadne. Murdering people is a great life skill. Continue collecting deadly animals to protect you when you're down, too!
