SEPTEMBER AU PLANNING POST (NEWBIES AND OLDBIES!!)


AU Backstory Planning Post
Information

Every month, we'll have a post where new characters and old characters can plan out backstories with one another. This should hopefully get characters something to work with when coming up with their alternate universes and get some prebuilt CR for those who are looking for it! This is NOT a requirement, you could be an unattached person if you'd like! However, for those who do want it, this is the place for you!

Before you start with making an AU, I would recommend getting familiar with some of the information to get an idea of how the setting works here.

How to Build an AU
What are Families?
The Eight Families
Names
Full Navigation for any other questions/curiosities!

Once you get done with that, you can comment to the post!

New Potential Players

Thank you for having interest in joining! When you post your comment looking to plot, please toplevel the post with NEW CHARACTER | CHARACTER CANON NAME (CANON) and then fill out the following:

Player Name:
Character:
Canon: Please also list if they are post game!
Potential Family Option: List the teams you're considering! Nothing here is permanent/guaranteed.
AU idea(s): What kind of story are you looking to have? Did you have multiple ideas but not sure which one you like? List em here! If you're amnesia, go ahead and list that too!
Roles/CR you're interested in: Parent looking for kids, teachers looking for students, neighborhood cat looking for pets, local gamer needing ppl to dunk on, etc. Just a general idea of some things you're interested in.
Wants and Dreams: anything else that hasn't been mentioned yet, please note it here!!

Please don't take anything listed here as "official". Players are allowed to refuse whatever they're not interested in and they can change their minds if they haven't played it out yet!

Once you comment, please join the discord and LINK your post into the links subchannel. If you haven't received access to the discord, DM Celi! If you haven't gotten permission to join the game yet, you'll have to DM me anyway since this game is friends only!
Established Characters

For established characters, you can use this post as well! If you have an "open to all" type of CR where you're always needing a certain type of CR, you can do that here! This includes a restaurant needing regular patrons or a teacher needing students, guinea pigs for experiments, etc. Open to All is literally Open to All, it is never closed until the OP player adds a CLOSED comment so if you're a new player, don't feel like you're overwhelming them by commenting!!

When you post your comment looking to plot, please toplevel the post with OPEN TO ALL | CHARACTER CANON NAME (CANON) and then fill out the following:

Player Name:
Character:
Canon: Please also list if they are post game!
Family:
Looking for You can included things like regulars for cafe, regular patients, students, past lovers, etc.
Any other notes:

Whenever you reach your CR limit, feel free to comment to your toplevel with the header CLOSED to let new players know that you're not taking any more CR for the time being (of course you can still tag new potential players!). It will also close automatically once the new monthly post goes up.

Player Name: Dani
Character: Hizumi Mizushiro (Goes by Snowdrop or Snow!)
Canon: Spiral: The Bonds of Reasoning
Family: Acidia
Looking for

-Childhood friends
-Friends from school
-People he met around town because he's a social butterfly
-People who knew him as he grew up

Any other notes:

He's a kid genius who's already making medicines and shit, but he's super friendly and always looking to make connections with others because 1. friends are good and he's an extrovert and 2. it's great to know a guy for any random problem that might need a specific skillset he doesn't have! His family has always been a part of Acidia, so it was always a given he'd follow in their footsteps (although his parents aren't in medicine-making specifically). He's around 16 right now for reference if that helps! You can also see his full AU here!

I don't have any hard ideas for how they might know each other but I do love Dani and Hizumi and am excited

Childhood friends sadly aren't super viable but if he stopped to chat her up while out and about she'd be similarly friendly back. Snow are you ready to learn about astronomy

He is SO ready to learn!! Would she have frequented the cat café any?

She'd be there fairly regularly! Usually a little corner seat but she'd hang out there from time to time to work on scripts or research in a different environment. I was thinking she might promote it occasionally on her channel too!

Snow almost definitely ended up chatting with her while she was there, then, social butterfly bastard that he is.
