The Timeskip Check-In Meme

With the game entering the second half of the timeskip, so many characters are getting involved in a lot of different things and changing in so many ways, not to mention changing things in the Drabwurld. But with so much activity, it's hard to know what's really going on and who's doing what. This meme is designed to not only to update the playerbase of what your character is up to, but also plot out anything you'd like to accomplish and thread out during the second half.

TL;DR plotting post 2.0, let's go.

lauralae - native

[fuga]

Character name: Lauralae
Canon: N/A, Drabwurld native
About your character (optional): An Aellyn exile talented in blood magic and shapeshifting! She has a curse of some kind but she is loathe to share the details and is very rigid and irritable if asked.
Link to your character's timeskip page: info and logging.


Character's current location: All over the map! She started out in the Elf lands below Caer Glaem and then moved to Treun before heading West to Redgate. After that she and Iorveth returned North to Unseelie territory and have been around there since September.

Businesses/titles your character has: Nope. She's a travelling mage/witch, but there are rumours about who she is and what she can offer people to learn.

What has your character accomplished during the timeskip so far? She has been teaching people blood magic in return for gifts. She will teach anyone, but more likely the Unseelie, how to use and manipulate their blood to cast spells and make runes in return for items of magical value or, preferably in her case, magic that a shardholder can teach her. She's selective in her teaching only in that she demands power for power, so she won't be likely to offer magic to anyone throwing just money at her feet.

What are they doing for the second half so far? Nothing specific yet! She has no real plans and is mostly interested in the fledgling relationships she has with people and trying to get as much magical knowledge as she can, any means necessary.

What would you like to accomplish for them during the second half of the timeskip? Magic, magic, magic! I have nothing specific in mind but she will be wanting more magical power. She's also going to be getting a little... Less violent, perhaps, as she starts making new friendships and developing an actual social circle rather than being a lone wolf.

Is there any specific kind of CR you're seeking during the timeskip? Everything for her! She has some friendly CR and some neutral stuff but otherwise she doesn't have much to her name yet.

Who/where is your character most-likely to be found spending time with during the timeskip? (optional) She can be found travelling with Iorveth and can be reached by messengers!

People to manipulate if she gets something out of it. Please note this entails mind compulsion and godmodding on her behalf.

[parallels]

Character name: Clara Oswald
Canon: Doctor Who
About your character (optional): School teacher, needy, egomaniac game changer!
Link to your character's timeskip page: Here!


Character's current location: Claer Glaem, the Cothromach, and general traveling around.

Businesses/titles your character has: Clara is currently starting a school in the Cothromach and has been requested by the monarchs to develop an education system in Seelie Territory.

What has your character accomplished during the timeskip so far? The school will probably open sometime during the timeskip! Clara also went to the forest near Caer Glaem to learn blood magic from Lauralae.

What are they doing for the second half so far? No concrete plans.

What would you like to accomplish for them during the second half of the timeskip? I'd really like for Clara to get more involved in the underground movements of the world. Basically anyone pushing to end the war faster or somehow subvery the power of the courts.

She's been tasked with the education stuff but honestly it's a front and she doesn't care that much about it. It's simply a ruse to become closer to the monarchs and have some element of power to exert.

Is there any specific kind of CR you're seeking during the timeskip? More friends! Clara's kind of a distant person and struggles with accepting people into her life. She's kind of the "just go it alone and get it done' type. Also negative CR? Clara has a really strong idea of the "ends justify the means" and I would love to bring people into conflict with her world view.

Who/where is your character most-likely to be found spending time with during the timeskip? (optional) She spends most of her time alone or with the Doctor. She also spends time with John Grimm, Dorian Gray, and Sam Wilson.

Anything else? I'm always up for plotting and stuff at plurk bowtie

[survivra]

horse riding lessons in exchange for firebending? gotta keep up while they're on the road!! 8)

[parallels]

I keep forgetting to PM you because I'm the worst at this timeskip. But are you still up for traveling whenever in the timeskip!

[steadfasts]

[babbylon]

WE STILL DOING OUR SEPTEMBER DUEL THING RIGHT

I remember checking in with this and you saying you had some stuff pending before it could happen, so just wanted to make sure! o7

[knightscode]

Yes! I am just trying to do things in a vague semblance of order and Lancelot is still talking to Diarmuid about it Type-Moon things and also Rin so I'd rather get the bulk of the info-dumping done there first since those are both waaaay before September. Otherwise either Lance is at risk of weird short term memory or me having to retcon/fix anyway.

[babbylon]

MAGIC LESSONS

Gil already knows a whole lot being uh, made of magic, but he'd be curious to learn Lia could use some at least. And probably awkward touch her some more?? MAYBE WITH CLOTHES ON THIS TIME.

[knightscode]

I'm not sure if you meant to or not but you dropped our original shardtraining thread! I have one open for end of march or one for July if you want! c:

AND I haven't sorted it out properly yet, but WRT to the other thread you tagged back (might as well answer here now) -- the locks thing was going to be for Lance's house I intend him to build within Glaschu so he has a home that isn't his workplace but... he's so busy I need to work out when the fuck he starts it and therefore when he would be looking for that kind of thing. But he's Paranoid As Fuck after having someone break into his bedroom in Caer Glaem while he slept so he would unashamedly want to make it a fucking fortress.

(Also he has a dragon baby to protect)

[showmeyourwreath]

Character name: Flora
Canon: The Winx Club
About your character (optional): Calm, cheerful, homicidal, and loves you and is already you're friend. Unless you're Hyde. Eff you, Hyde. Super hax plant crazy fairy.
Link to your character's timeskip page: voilà


Character's current location: Mysteries. She teleports; she gets around.


Businesses/titles your character has: Marchioness of the White Citadel; Stem of Life; Voice of the Sisters (Court Ambassador to the Sisterhood); Shield of the Cothromach; Co-Director of the Vanguard of the Sun (Seelie Magical R&D)


What has your character accomplished during the timeskip so far? Basically, wherever nature's needed help in some way, Flora's likely been there. She's been working on the jabberot, worked on a solution to the the golem issue, has been growing all kinds of stuff for others, and not only healed La Llorona from post-huge-feb-battle, but made it healthy again. (it's still a lil murderous though, just not angrily and spitefully murderous 8D)


What are they doing for the second half so far?
❀she gonna be a wolf
❀still gonna heal some jabberot
❀perform/compete in dance at ostara, maybe do musical stuff too
❀no idea, im open to stuff
❀magical research, looking after glaschu peeps, general training


What would you like to accomplish for them during the second half of the timeskip? uhhhhhhhhhhhhh. okay but for real, perhaps establishing a team of pcs and npcs to work on Seelie infrastructure eg. roads, transportation, crops, material acquisition etc. largely for the war effort and development, but just to make sure people are getting what they need. So if you think your character would be good for that in some way, let me know, and I'll keep you in mind until I can get myself more organised.
❀weapons training
❀blood magic training


Is there any specific kind of CR you're seeking during the timeskip? She does need more lady friends i have no idea how she knows so many dudes; people to be not-so-great to maybe like bad influences a bit, or at least try, but im otherwise open to anything.


Who/where is your character most-likely to be found spending time with during the timeskip? She'll likely be at the White Citadel or Caer Glaem BUT SHE GETS AROUND


Anything else? As an aside, I have been hideously sick for over three weeks now, and I'll have finals coming up too, so I might be slow on some stuff. It's also left me a little more out of it than usual so if I haven't responded to something after after a few days, please don't hesitate to poke me. It's likely that I've forgotten and I'm sorry about any inconvenience ahead of time! Thank you!

[knightscode]

What kind of things do you want Lia involved in? Fighting style, subterfuge, politics -- either diplomacy style or aggressive? Something else? I can easily swing Lance involving her and either her coming along on one of his diplomacy missions or sending her to do something as a quest, to investigate, to fight a thing etc c: equally he has watchtowers that require building as quests and even if they're low for her you could drum up people to help, npc builders and have her take some time makin' one perfect as a thing for her to do? Or scoutin' or something, I have tons of options just pick a style and we can make it work c:

[psalmed]

Anything. Which I know is entirely too broad. Canonly she's a diplomat used to forming alliances between two countries though she can also sword the crap out of some things.

I'm not certain she'd be good at building. Teaching, swordplay, diplomacy, making men wear pretty dresses. These are her strengths.

[psalmed]

Why pet the milk when you are getting the cow for free? Wait. That's not how it goes.

He could always see her using her GOD MAGIC. And interrupt her. And make something explode.

[knightscode]

Diplomacy then, perhaps? Lance was meant to have help on his diplomacy tour from Marg, Mithian and Anne but we've lost both Marg and Mithian and Anne is on hiatus (future uncertain!) so it could be the perfect time for her to enthusiastically volunteer her skills! He has zero experience and is hoping if he is just terribly nice to everyone things might go well

(no I'm serious)

[psalmed]

Nooo but Grandma Anne must come. No seriously, let her let it slip she and Anne will some day be related. But she'd be happy to accompany him for diplomacy and also subtly beat some sense into him that sometimes you can't just be nice.

[knightscode]

But she's too young and hot to be a grandma!!!

[babbylon]

Speak to me of this GOD MAGIC. Is she going to bring down Jesus on Gilgamesh's head? A giant bible? Both? details are important

Harry Potter

Canon: Harry Potter
About your character (optional): Short wizard with a crow friend.

Character's current location: Somewhere in Dorchadas, usually in the north with the Aellyn mages.

Businesses/titles your character has: No business, no lands, but he's got the informal title of 'Shield of the Towers'.

What has your character accomplished during the timeskip so far?

- Put together some rather fancy wards and protective mojo for Nocturne, a brothel in Mair.

What are they doing for the second half so far? Harry is going MIA for the rest of the timeskip. That said, there are a couple ways for him to make an appearance (...of sorts).
If your character is Unseelie, and runs into serious trouble in Unseelie lands, and you'd like some CR, lemme know.
If your character is Seelie, and wants to run into serious trouble in Unseelie lands, and you'd like some CR, lemme know.

[babbylon]

No problem -- I figured you had a lot of things on your plate right now so it was mostly a just "hey we still good for this" check. I'll be around whenever you're ready!

[psalmed]

But pregnant with father! Grandma! And then hysterical arm waving.

[knightscode]

Slowly looks between them.

Slowly stares at hands.

Time confusion why.

If you want to join him for a visit post-Treun he will be in Leathann in August around the Festival of Lights, Parrais in September, Treun January 2,702 and Leathann again February 2,702!
