Since we are so small, we are combining the Player Plot Post and the How's My Driving post. You can post for either/or, or both. If someone requests not to get crit, please respect that.

HOW'S MY DRIVING?

Anon is enabled, don't be an a jerk. Also please make sure if you are asking for crit you are also giving it. If everyone only posts for themselves, no one will get any feedback. You don't need to comment to everyone, but please be sure if you comment to reply to at least 3 other people. We'll be keeping an eye on this post to make sure everyone's commenting around.

There are some helpful crit questions posted here if you are feeling lost on how to word yourself.

PLAYER PLOT POST

Sometimes we want to plot with our fellow players, but are either too shy to approach them, or we just don't get the chance. This is a place to brainstorm, bounce off ideas, and do anything you'd like, plot wise. Its sole purpose is to foster connection between players. These will be posted once a round. So make a friend! Or an enemy!

How this works:

Use this form to post your characters and start brain storming ideas!



Happy Hunger Games!

Character: Effie Trinket
Basic personality: Effie is...fuzzy and very proper (in her opinion) while usually being unintentionally insulting to everyone else. She is very much Capitol minded, priveldged, but starting to crumble a bit around the edges.
What I'm looking for from CR: I love negative CR. And positive CR. But both are good.
Upcoming plots or things to note about this character: She is very stressed right now, and very worried about Katniss and Peeta.

Character: Elias/[personal profile] nofunandgames
Basic personality: Generally laid back, but has a passionate streak. And a little bit snarky. When he feels he can get away with it.
What I'm looking for from CR: Again, I love negative CR, and he is sorta ending up a rebellion leader.
Upcoming plots or things to note about this character: Rebellion stuff.

Character: Lottie
Basic personality: Big and pink. She is outgoing, and a bleeding heart, and also use to being spoilt and rich. Although she does better in the Capitol than the arena, she is not suited to their mentality.
What I'm looking for from CR: Same as above. I wouldn't mind a romance here either.
Upcoming plots or things to note about this character: None I caqn think of.

Crit and plots both welcome!

Character: Ariadne ([personal profile] buildingreality)
Basic personality: a very creative young woman with a rebellious streak a mile wide. She doesn't trust easily, but she's loyal and honest. Though she's emotionally detached from virtually everything around her, don't take that as a hint that she doesn't pay attention - she has a mind for detail.
What I'm looking for from CR: anything and everything.
Upcoming plots or things to note about this character: since Ariadne just won the last Arena, thanks to Don, she'll be wandering around the Capitol generally keeping an eye on everything from the outside. She's sort of leaning the direction of Haymitch in helping out Tributes that she thinks are capable - since she doesn't have the same good relationship with her own District's Tributes - and will also be getting involved in the rebellion a lot more.
I'd love: really anything. Ariadne doesn't actually have that many real friends, even though she trusts a handful of people. I'd also love some negative CR.

Character: Draco Malfoy ([personal profile] mudbloodhater)
Basic personality: a complete prick. Suffice to say, even if he hadn't been taken from out of the frying pan and into the fire in terms of being brought in, he still would have been a world-class prick. He's a bully in every sense of the word, putting down everyone around him in order to build himself back up, and this is especially true in the Arenas.
What I'm looking for from CR: anything, but I'd particularly enjoy Draco actually getting friends.
Upcoming plots or things to note about this character: nothing right now. He's currently moping around due to the loss of his magic.
I'd love: him to get involved in a plot or two, and eventually petition to get his magic back. An alliance or two for the next Arena would also be interesting, perhaps because the chances of him backstabbing anyone who allies with him are pretty high.


Crit is welcome.
wheresthepie: (Hi)

[personal profile] wheresthepie 2012-10-25 06:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Character: Dean Winchester
Basic personality: Dean's a bit of a hardass about certain things, and also has trust issues with most. He has strong beliefs, and doesn't put up with bullshit, from anyone.
What I'm looking for from CR: Positive or Negative feedback is always good
Upcoming plots or things to note about this character: Dean has no idea where he is, nor why he's here. Last thing he remembers is coming back from 2014.
I'd love: to have Dean make an alliance or two. Since he doesn't know anyone here, having an ally in the next arena may be good for him, especially one that's good at hunting, since he's best with a shot gun and is used to fast food.

Crits are welcome.

[personal profile] buildingreality 2012-10-25 06:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I require more obnoxious Effie and Draco things, particularly because I think it would be hilarious for him to make fun of her for being concerned about her old Tributes when she's got two new ones right there.

Elias and Ariadne are a given, because we discussed that previously.

And I'd love to toss Draco at Lottie because they'd probably get along pretty fantastically due to being rich and blond.
buildingreality: (Default)

[personal profile] buildingreality 2012-10-25 06:52 pm (UTC)(link)
I would like many many arguments between Dean and Draco. Perhaps a reluctant alliance, if things work out that way? I can imagine Dean just finding Draco absolutely pathetic.

Also, I would like Dean and Ariadne CR at some point, though probably once he's back in the Capitol.
wheresthepie: (Default)

[personal profile] wheresthepie 2012-10-25 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I agree on all accounts. Dean would find Draco pathetic, but if they bond enough, he'd end up protecting him like he protects Sammy. So, mayhaps?

as for the CR with Ariadne, Yes. This.
buildingreality: (Default)

[personal profile] buildingreality 2012-10-25 07:13 pm (UTC)(link)
We'll see how it goes, at any rate. \o/

Aww yeah. We're on the same page.
greymatter: (Schadenfreude.)

[personal profile] greymatter 2012-10-25 07:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Character: Dr. Grey
Basic personality: Grey is not a pleasant man. He's basically your typical psychopath. Grey is quick tempered and sadistic, impulsive and utterly lacking in anything resembling empathy or morals.
What I'm looking for from CR: Grey is really starting to miss his ~SCIENCE!~ at this point. He's probably attempting to procure lab space somewhere in the Capitol. He'd very much be interested in experimental subjects. He's particularly taken interest in tributes of the non-human kind.
Upcoming plots or things to note about this character: Just the science! His little setup isn't something the Capitol is aware of... yet.
buildingreality: (Default)

[personal profile] buildingreality 2012-10-25 07:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Draco's not necessarily non-human, but he's inherently magical, and I'd be down for Grey experimenting on him if he wanted. (I shouldn't be so gleeful about tossing my characters to the sharks.)
greymatter: (Science wins!)

[personal profile] greymatter 2012-10-25 07:33 pm (UTC)(link)
If Grey finds out about this supposed 'magic' he might be interested!
buildingreality: (Default)

[personal profile] buildingreality 2012-10-25 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, he'll probably get pretty vocal about it soon - he's very much missing it, since the Capitol basically quashed it until he petitions for it back.
greymatter: (Concoctions.)

[personal profile] greymatter 2012-10-25 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Sounds good! Grey'll have to conveniently overhear.
buildingreality: (Default)

[personal profile] buildingreality 2012-10-25 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm sure we can hook something up!

Character: Eliot Spencer
Basic personality: Eliot can be incredibly charming, patient, and compassionate. He tends to feel deeply about what's going on around him but also tends to bury that so no one can use it against him. He also has a tendency to be gruff and aggressive when stressed. He's very much the protector type.
What I'm looking for from CR: Positive, negative, or anything in between, really.
Upcoming plots or things to note about this character: His brother just recently arrived. Also, he's just been forced into prostitution. So far, he's been mostly able to cover up what the toll it's taking on him but that's only going to last so long. He'll be hanging on in the Arena as long as he can but then intentionally losing so that he still has that break from the Capitol.

Character: Kevin Prentiss
Basic personality: Kevin is about as prickly as a porcupine, aggressive, and desperate. He doesn't really know how to make friends and doesn't really get why he should.
What I'm looking for from CR: He tends to attract negative CR but I would love it if someone would take the kid under their wing.
Upcoming plots or things to note about this character: Not much to say. Yes fairly traumatized from dying in the Arena and from Tate's execution and that much jumpier because of it.

[personal profile] fire_punk 2012-10-25 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Also volunteering this little pyrokinetic for experimentation. Plus there's that animosity between Grey and Eliot from the last two Arenas to play with...
fire_punk: (Default)

[personal profile] fire_punk 2012-10-25 08:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey, Dean, can you handle a pyrokinetic teenager without assuming he's possessed? Or one of Azazel's surviving kids?
cowardfacinghappiness: Momoko looking disbelieving. (Default)

[personal profile] cowardfacinghappiness 2012-10-25 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
No crit please! Still working out the bugs myself.

Character: Momoko Ryugasaki
Basic personality: An introverted loner with a very cynical worldview. She's very confused right now, as the events of her canon plus the events of the RP so far have her trying to deal with caring about other people and other people caring about her, even if they don't actually know her.
What I'm looking for from CR: Some closer relationships, someone who might be able to get past her walls. Also, some enemies would be lovely, since Momoko is inexplicably charming most of the people she's met so far.
Upcoming plots or things to note about this character: Not that I can think. Ariadne and Momoko have something possibly in the future concerning French, but other than that she's pretty free.

Character: Valeria Rushlit
Basic personality: A flighty pleasure-seeker who adores attention and works hard on her Stylist creations to get that attention.
What I'm looking for from CR: Something a little deeper, she's just had some passing conversations really so far; she's mostly managed to avoid the darker parts so far and that's just not as fun so I wouldn't be opposed to giving her a scare either.
Upcoming plots or things to note about this character: Nothing really.

Character: Alpha
Basic personality: A manipulative and obsessive sadist pretty much sums it up; he's also a composite person with 50+ personalities in his head and the newest is giving him some trouble in the conscience department.
What I'm looking for from CR: Anything! I barely had time to start some lackluster (on my end, the others were great!) threads before I went on hiatus so he's pretty much a blank slate for CR at the moment. I would love someone Alpha can trick into thinking he's a good guy, someone he can try to manipulate or work with on an escape attempt but otherwise I'm open to anything.
Upcoming plots or things to note about this character: To explain his absence I'm saying he was put in isolation for messing with the Arena (haven't pinned down what exactly he did yet, still checking with the mods) so that's where he's been. Doesn't really have anything upcoming.
cowardfacinghappiness: Momoko looking disbelieving. (Default)

[personal profile] cowardfacinghappiness 2012-10-25 09:01 pm (UTC)(link)
I swear I'm not trying to throw Momoko at all of your characters (though I would because they are awesome) but I am terribly amused by the image of Draco and her interacting, and I think they could probably end up as friends?
buildingreality: (Default)

[personal profile] buildingreality 2012-10-25 09:02 pm (UTC)(link)
I will gladly gather up Momoko and all of her CR. And I'd love for her and Draco to interact; I think they've got a similar sort of snark going on that would play out well. He will be friends with all the pretty girls.
buildingreality: (Default)

[personal profile] buildingreality 2012-10-25 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I think that, while it might not necessarily be positive, pitching Ariadne at Kevin wouldn't necessarily be negative CR either. Plus, she's a mentor now, so there's that.

And I've no idea what we're doing with Eliot and Ariadne any more.
buildingreality: (Default)

[personal profile] buildingreality 2012-10-25 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I know for a fact that Ariadne is going to have Momoko's back in a big way outside of the Arena - maybe we can start up the notes in French that way? Just to keep her partly updated with what's happening on the outside, perhaps. We can figure something out, yeah?

I'd also love to get Ariadne involved with Valeria, since they're both in the Capitol.

Also. Hey, Alpha? Want a Draco to mess with? He's malleable like nothing else.
cowardfacinghappiness: Momoko looking disbelieving. (Default)

[personal profile] cowardfacinghappiness 2012-10-25 09:11 pm (UTC)(link)
I could see Alpha pouncing on Dean as a potential puppet for his schemes, trying to manipulate him, which could end badly or horribly, either way.
cowardfacinghappiness: Momoko looking disbelieving. (Default)

[personal profile] cowardfacinghappiness 2012-10-25 09:17 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm just gonna say yes on all accounts? :D

The French idea sounds good, maybe Ariadne tries to reach out to a sulky Momoko with a note in French? Or do you want to start when she's back in the Arena?

I'd love to get Val and Ariadne together, but I'm not sure how... Maybe the Halloween ball? Or something to do with the people working on Games stuff?

But yeah, Alpha will be glad to do terrible things to Draco. Are you thinking like psychological, trying to use him (or, alternatively, just playing with him) or something more physical in the Arena?
cowardfacinghappiness: Momoko looking disbelieving. (Default)

[personal profile] cowardfacinghappiness 2012-10-25 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
I had this instant mental image of Draco arguing that he's prettier than all of the girls, don't mind me...

But yeah, they can run into each other in the Capitol maybe? Or some Mentor/Escort scheduled hang-out possibly. Since Effie seemed taken with Momoko last time they talked they might get forced into socializing in some attempts to garner ratings (or Sponsors or however they measure it.)
buildingreality: (Default)

[personal profile] buildingreality 2012-10-25 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
I think it could probably start in the Arena? Something minor happens, Ariadne provides a small gift with a little note. Does she know that Momoko speaks French yet? - I don't remember.

Halloween ball could work nicely. Something about her stylist doing a particularly good job on her or something, and that lures Val over?

I'm honestly good for anything and everything. Draco's just being a whiny little bitch right now, so I'm up for really doing horrible things as you feel necessary. Plus, if Alpha convinces Draco he's a good guy, and they ally it up, Draco'll be terribly smug about having someone that strong on his side. Could lend itself nicely to him getting stabbed in the back (perhaps literally)?
