Hey meatship. Old player, sort of new character. This here is Querl Dox aka Brainiac 5. Now, the meatship's had two previous Brainiac 5 but this Brainy is an alternate of both of those. He's still a dick why did I first write that as duck and still obscenely smart. He's also more of a sociopath (though not quite there). Oh, and he's married to Dream Girl- but that's after his time.
( Here's where you come in )

Hi guys! I'm Debs, and I'm braaaand new to the game. With me, I'm bringing an adorable girl named Jade Harley from Homestuck. Unlike the other Homestuck characters in game right now, Jade isn't a troll! She's 100% human. Her dog's kinda-sorta omnipotent though, and he was able to warp reality, but that's being nerfed thanks to a special collar. But yeah! Anyway, Jade is a very optimistic and happy girl that suffers from narcolepsy and memory problems. She's also really good with a gun.

As a note, she types just like this!!! there's lots of excessive punctuation and her grammar isnt all that perfect..... she really likes emoticons too! :)

Anyway, I'm looking forward to playing my derp with everyone else! ♥ If you need me, you can catch me on AIM at kyuupin. \o/

Locked post up in the OOC! Check the comm while logged in, dahlings.

MASTER PLOT PLAN IS HERE.
It's locked to the comm only because there's login information for the npc account that should only be kept to players.

IC STAGE ONE POST IS HERE [Runs December 11 - 14]

For this first stage, the characters should start to feel that things just aren't right, that they don't really fit in. Reality will glitch around them because they don't really belong. They'll have strange moments where they see things that don't quite jive, like certain events happening twice in a row, like the same car going down the same road twice, or clocks running backwards and then are at the right time when they look back at the clock. A stop sign might be blue to the meatship characters, but if anyone else in the town is asked, it's the usual red. No one else can see them, only the meatship characters. A teacher might use the same exact lesson plan twice in a row and only the meatship character notices.

They'll also have dreams of the ship and their normal lives, and occasional flashes of their true memories. They might hear things, perhaps their own normal internal voice running in the background, calling out for help, or conversations they've had in the past on the ship or in their canons.

Whatever emotional event you plan to have the character taking back their true identities in during stage two (a fight with a parent, standing up for themselves against bullies, etc.) you should start laying the groundwork for here.

You do not need permission to have any glitches or flashbacks happen, just comment here if you come up with a particularly strange idea for a new one, to make sure it's kosher, and remember they can't remember who they are yet.

HOW TO PLAY

You can tag to the post for your establishing shots, the characters in class, waking up for the day, going to work, whatever you like.

Further interactions should be set up by location. For instance, if you want to set up for interaction in the school cafeteria, set up so that anyone in the cafeteria at that time can start subthreads in the post. Rather than setting up all these location posts myself, I'm leaving it to the players because I don't know where everyone is going to be interacting when, so the first person who needs a post in a location should set it up for people to thread there. Make sure when setting up a post, there's not one already there or handwave that it's a different day.

QUESTIONS?

You can ask here! Or by aim or email. Contact info is at the top of the Master Plot Post.

Hey everyone! LisaCharly (Eva Mun) bringing another character in: this little fella is Howard Bassem from Michael Grant's Gone series. He's a manipulative little teenage snarker with no sense of pride or consistent morality, so if anyone wants a lackey, Howard will do anything to feel protected. Anything. Especially now that he can't buy his own safety with coke and booze.

No, he doesn't trust Stacy's tentacles at all. I mean, they're tentacles. Aside from the fact that he's seen kids get whipped to death by tentacles, something about having them pop out of nowhere to do things doesn't really scream 'welcome to your safe and comforting environment, have some tea and cookies!'.

Looking forward to the podpop!

Blue here, your resident Marco and Daja-mun, bringing you my third character - Merlin! Specifically, Merlin from the BBC's Merlin. Timelinewise, he's from the beginning of the Season Two finale.

Now, since Merlin is...well...Merlin, and a pretty well known figure of legend, I'm betting there's going to be a lot of characters who'll recognise him (or that place called Camelot that he keeps talking about). So, I'm just going to say upfront and what is and isn't allowed in terms of canon-puncturing (or should it be 'legend-puncturing?' hmm...):

• for the BBC version of Merlin, i.e. the series he's actually from: no canon-puncturing, please. You can ask if you really want to, but generally I prefer to not have anyone reference this.
  
• for every other version of Arthurian legend in existence ever, including Malory and Marion Zimmer Bradley and Monty Python and whatever else might be out there: GO NUTS. Seriously. You can canon puncture anything and everything from the legends and other retellings, and you don't even have to ask me first.

So yes - I'm looking forward to podpopping him in January! 8D
