Timeskip Check-In Meme aka Plotting 2.0

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.

Both is fine too although Lancelot doesn't do yelling he does speaking very quietly and intensely!!!!

[aureinsof]

Character name: Emil Castagnier / Ratatosk 'Aster'
Canon: Tales of Symphonia
About your character (optional): Emil is a shier boy, determined to help people out, a bit sulky but friendly and kind. Ratatosk is blunt, rude, aggressive and not good at seeking out help. He currently goes by Aster.
Link to your character's timeskip page: here!


Character's current location: The White Citadel, Caer Glaem, Treun

Businesses/titles your character has: His current title is Friend of Treun, previously Guardian. He has a business of taming beasts for Seelie.

What has your character accomplished during the timeskip so far? Mostly he's been helping out in Treun. He's going to officially open his beast taming business soon. He entered the Tourney but didn't get anywhere so he's going to be training.

What are they doing for the second half so far? I plan to have him train with Lancelot on his shard and open his business officially of taming beasts.

What would you like to accomplish for them during the second half of the timeskip? OKAY SO I NEED HELP WITH A SPECIFIC THING. I need people to push him into remembering he's Ratatosk. Soooo people who can sense he's a God - he has enough cores now to seem off to those with senses - or just pushing on the whole multiple personalities thing.

Is there any specific kind of CR you're seeking during the timeskip? Friends! Emil really needs close friends. Ratatosk needs friends but I'm not adverse to negative CR since he's that kind of person!

you better believe

i have 2,702 open slots

Sadly Draco can't help but have loud dramatics on occasion, he is naturally very loud. because. dragon.

Also he is willing to try and help bolster Glaschu's borders, all pending disagreements aside! It's the only real safe place for dragons right now and he'd like to keep it that way.

[knightscode]

GOOD DRAGON!

BUT BEWARE

:c someone is going to tell lance after samhain that


someone is looking to buy dragon parts....

be careful draco friend

[merelychewed]

and so it begins
is this his fault
being the obviously visible dragon

please warn him, lancelot. maybe he can go... hunt that someone down or something.

[knightscode]

I bet its an unseelie


go eat lots of them just in case that will help right


(but of course he will, dragon friends gotta stick together!)

[merelychewed]

lancelot, you can't just eat unseelie willy-nilly
they aren't all bad

also wow he does not eat

he merely chews in self-defense!!!

[psalmed]

I can't take you anywhere.

[merelychewed]

Character name: Draco
Canon: Dragonheart
About your character: Often grouchy and opinionated old dragon on the outside, big softie with a kind (half a) heart on the inside, five million times friendlier to ladies from the get go.
Link to your character's timeskip page: bam

Character's current location: he can get around pretty fast and be anywhere, but most often encountered in Boglach (lmao like anyone else goes down there) or around Glaschu.

Businesses/titles your character has: nah

What has your character accomplished during the timeskip so far?

→ Fled south after flipping out in April.
→ Found a half-sunken temple ruin in Boglach, uses it as a lair now.
→ Did a full circuit of the Drabwurld, including along the edges of Unseelie lands.
→ Flew out to see the Void.
→ Encountered a juvenile sea serpent while around Briste, much fight.
→ Recruited to go treasure hunting by Chloe.

What are they doing for the second half so far?
Not a whole lot planned beyond more treasure hunting with Chloe and likely returning to Caer Glaem at last.

What would you like to accomplish for them during the second half of the timeskip?

→ Set up his swamp lair a little better, maybe find a defense or two for it since he will be keeping a hoard there.
→ Actually start hoarding things, aw yiss shiny shit of varying useful/uselessness.
→ Survive an attempt to be slain maybe, idk?
→ Start learning how to read? Also a maybe.

Is there any specific kind of CR you're seeking during the timeskip?
Pretty much any kind of CR. Friends, humans and especially non-humans. Enemies! People who'd actually try to rob or slay a dragon.

Who/where is your character most-likely to be found spending time with during the timeskip?
Probably visiting Lancelot/Faolan/Bridei a lot, because Bridei. Chloe, whenever they're doing the treasure hunt thing. That said, he doesn't really spend tons of time around any one particular person or group.

Anything else? I'm being a little slow right now due to RL work stuff, so apologies there! I am also going to be MIA for a week this upcoming month, though I'll still have net access, so how much I'm not really sure. Also feel free to add me on plurk at angrybears. /o/

[withbite]

Um... no. Because I'm dumb. You got any time open on Mr. Busy's schedule? He could come by and see how the cafe's doing. It'll be up and running.

[aeipathos]

God you know I love them both but I don't think it's enough to not do that second one. Technically neither one of them is mutually exclusive - the facial hair thing will definitely be happening basically always at least.

[hiddeninfidelity]

Well, Mordred's current means of transportation is limited to her Chocobo. So it would have to be within a reasonable distance for travel by mount.

[falconkick]

That works perfectly! I don't know if I already said that but it definitely still works perfectly. Maybe they can just wander idly through that area for awhile. C:

[falconkick]

I am absolutely up for it, yes!! Was there anywhere in particular we wanted them to go? I don't really remember, timeskip has been so confused. :c

[gandere]

I know mods generally prefer to have shard activation stuff in the main game community considering how important it is, but I've seen a few others do their own in their timeskip pages so we can do that. Just make sure it's outlined in the character info or something so the mods know it's actually been logged out somewhere :D

I'm definitely not opposed to multiple threads either. Did you want to set something up or should I swing by? I figure it'll probably be handled later on this week after the letters, but I did add that to my check list.

[raavashing]

If they prefer it in the logs comm, we can do that. I was just thinking it would be better not to clutter things up when the time skip pages are available.

And we can set it up later this week after the letters. I'm not sure if Wan would approach Rin or Rin would offer and I want to see how the letters play out before posting a log up. o7

[parallels]

I don't think there was anything specific! Just general traveling/bro stuff/recovery help!

[gandere]

Always the twintails.

Sylph stuff is going to be post timeskip (probably) from the sanity of the mods. I shot off a couple of messages, but haven't heard anything back yet. Once I do, I'll let you know.

An emotional blow up would be fun, but I'd have to see where she's at mentally by then, especially if said blow up would set her back. Did you have something in mind you were hoping for as a result?

[gandere]

Makes sense. We can do it timeskip page or logs community. I know they wanted us to not clutter things up, but with this sort of thing it's difficult. Might be easier for you to locate if it's in your journal at any rate so!

I'll work on them now. Probably one for each month up until when? November? December? January? :)

[sculptor_of_aman]

Character name: Nerdanel
Canon: Tolkien (Silmarillion)
About your character (optional): Everyone's favorite ElfMama, famed for her sculpting abilities and her family! She's the wife of Feanor, mother to Maedhros, Maglor, Celegorm and their four brothers, aunt of Galadriel, grandmother of Celebrimbor, etc.
Link to your character's timeskip page: here


Character's current location: Caer Scima

Businesses/titles your character has: None...

What has your character accomplished during the timeskip so far? Nerdanel has been in Caer Scima for months, working on rebuilding and, more importantly, creating a commissioned memorial at Morla's behest for all fallen Unseelie that will be in every room save one of the restored complex.

What are they doing for the second half so far? Finishing rebuilding/her commission. Will also be participating in the art festival in the spring, but otherwise will be recuperating from the commission.

What would you like to accomplish for them during the second half of the timeskip? Art...? IDK, she's pretty open otherwise.

Is there any specific kind of CR you're seeking during the timeskip? She misses her family a lot. Befriending her will likely mean you'll end up adopted as her "kid." She just mothers everyone.

Who/where is your character most-likely to be found spending time with during the timeskip? (optional) She's... pretty open to whoever is willing to talk to her/help her, but despite Morla's commission, she leans toward neutrality.

Anything else? Be warned, she is psychic. Some people may find that unsettling.

[babbylon]

Good to know on the slyphs. Feel free to ping me into whatever's relevant at that time.

I think ideally these two would come to an understanding that they are... not as they remember each other, which means moving forward from just "hey it's that guy who killed my dad and tried to kill everyone else too" and "hey it's that little girl whose dad I killed". Once they reconcile (as much as they ever could, anyway, obviously there's no erasing proxy murder) over those different outcomes in different worlds which have made them different people, then there's more wiggle room.

...there's also the matter of Saber to consider, which they're both in agreement on. Like I said, I could see this going a number of different ways, so it can easily be something that winds up beneficial for Rin if she lets off some steam in the process. Kind of like before but with potentially less fireballs to the face.

[edgar_of_etheria]

Character name: Prince Edgar
Canon: King's Quest
About your character (optional): The sweet, shy fae prince from Etheria, he is also the Unseelie Baron of Spire 10, and cornering the market on blood granite in the Drabwurld. He also is one of few known to own a breeding pair of clegs.
Link to your character's timeskip page: here


Character's current location: Mostly in and around his spire, but able to travel as needed.

Businesses/titles your character has: Edgar is the baron of the tenth spire, also housing the Unseelie Research and Development lab, and pretty much the only game in town in terms of access to blood granite.

What has your character accomplished during the timeskip so far? ...mostly just begun mining and storing the blood granite in the vein near Spire 10.

What are they doing for the second half so far? Not much really concrete... Doing... barony things... Helping with research. Practicing his magic. Growing herbs and roses...

What would you like to accomplish for them during the second half of the timeskip? Open to whatever, plans are pretty fast and loose.

Is there any specific kind of CR you're seeking during the timeskip? Open to anything!

Who/where is your character most-likely to be found spending time with during the timeskip? (optional) Those loyal to Saber are likely to at least know of him if they don't know him personally. He does sometimes contact Waver Velvet for advice, and he's always willing to work with his fellow Barons and Baronesses. Also, he keeps pretty close tabs on the R&D lab--no new researchers can enter unless escorted by Edgar himself the first time they visit. Otherwise, he likes making friends, but is sometimes a little clueless or socially awkward. He is usually more comfortable around women than men.

Anything else? Edgar is also one for keeping the peace with the trolls near his lands.

[easternseaqueen]

Character name: Isabela
Canon: Dragon Age
About your character (optional): A pirate queen from Thedas, back home she's the scourge of 2 coastlines, 4 nations, and more taverns and brothels than she can remember. She loves games, good drink, the sea, and booty--both kinds!
Link to your character's timeskip page: Yo


Character's current location: ...wherever interests her at the time...?

Businesses/titles your character has: None in Drabwurld

What has your character accomplished during the timeskip so far? ...nothing...

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

What would you like to accomplish for them during the second half of the timeskip? Legit open to anything.

Is there any specific kind of CR you're seeking during the timeskip? Open to everything!

Who/where is your character most-likely to be found spending time with during the timeskip? (optional) She tends to seek out shady, seedy, lawless places and prefers the company of others who seek those kinds of haunts.

Anything else? Really, no idea what I'm doing with her. Isabela isn't much of a planner.

[survivra]

i would super super love more gilgamesh since their meeting at samhain, however that plays out! he's probably a terrible influence on katsa which i would be all about. she can be fairly easily conned into all sorts of mischief. or even if he isn't, interesting things could happen.

she reports to saber on the unseelie side and i have no idea if that would do anything but as a connection...? and she still wants to have a rematch with him.
