MARCH AU PLANNING POST


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.

Open to All | Judith (Tales of Vesperia)

[personal profile] ohlookoverthere 2025-03-09 05:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Saria
Character: Judith (nom de plume TBD)
Canon: Tales of Vesperia
Family: Forge
Looking for Friends, clients/patrons, flirty friends and/or flings, I'm open
Any other notes: She's a quirky sculptor/artist who mostly works in clays and metals. She probably makes everything from regular-looking pottery and lifelike statues to Very Abstract Art. There are also vague rumors that some of her art might be haunted but who knows?? :)

1. does she work at ore’s shop sometimes or does she have her own workshop. let’s be friends

2. would she come to frost’s cafe and/or bar. he could definitely be a client but I am gauging the grounds for ‘and also friend.’ tragically she is too young for a fling with him i think but they would absolutely flirt

I don't know what to offer with either of my boys, I just want CR! Whether it's brand new since their arrival on the ship or something before.

Forte appreciates art a lot, since he does a lot of painting/drawing outside of his music stuff, so maybe he knows her through appreciating that? How old is she? I think younger than Forte and older than Valerian. (21 and 17)

Either way...! I'm down for whatever CR. =3

If she has a floaty mechanical whale with her on the boat, she and Sam need to need meet on principle because he also has one (it's a narwhal but still.)

Sam is very into art, so I could have him be a client.

She's also within age range for Sam to flirt with her so he probably does on principle she doesn't have to flirt back though wew.

SO many Forges work at The Shop and Lea is ONE OF THEM! So if she's been around the Shop at all then he can for sure know her from that! She might just barely have been at the Facility around the same time as him too, if you were going to have her be at the Facility at all then he may have like, babysat her while the adults were doing other things fgksjgf

OTA | Chisato | Lycoris Recoil

[personal profile] alanhearted 2025-03-09 05:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Aru
Character: Chisato Nishikigi (Kaolin)
Canon: Lycoris Recoil
Family: Forge
Looking for friends, classmates, family!! extended or what not. romances idk anything
Any other notes:

- I'm translating her canon capability of being extremely gifted at killing to like physics and engineering. Think that kid you hear about on the news who's fixed some issue that the adults were struggling with at like 9 without even trying.
- She's not an orphan but her parents worked at the Facility and she tagged along or was there for some classes.
- Became a pretty famous science youtuber at like 14. Bought a studio out in the woods like this year to do crazier projects like explosions!!! and building things!!!
- As a general rule her youtube stuff tends to be community service orientated. People tell her she should pick up bigger things and she's just like "I like helping fix this issue they're having and seeing them happy!!!!"
- Unfortunately, she rarely charges. Like ever. Why would she she's a cute dog girl the ad revenue does it for her???
- She spends a lot of time frequenting cafes and new attractions. She has a secondary channel that is just how much she likes this food and sometimes she tries to guess the recipe. Other times she's pretending to be a penguin at the aquarium. Extremely athletic and never seen stopping moving, some videos are probably of her hiking up mountains or making her own ziplines and testing them.
- Her Youtube channel is probably something like K✪LIN
- When she's not doing youtube stuff she is genuinely probably doing the same thing she does on camera... Stopping to see if someone needs help, cheerfully recommending outfits or food, never wasting a moment. There was a time people thought that she was doing stuff for views and some people still start those rumors but real fans know she's just Like This.
- She's 18!!! So while they suggested she graduate early she was stubbornly like "okay but I want to enjoy my childhood". So she's in her final year of high school at the HS most of the other teens go to. She's probably very popular but she misses class at least once a week.
- Basically she is just a happy go lucky golden retriever living her best life without a care in the world (yet) and no trauma child assassin nonsense can touch her here.

Open To All | Han Yoojin (My S-Class Hunters)

[personal profile] mykidisthebest 2025-03-09 06:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Ellie
Character: Han Yoojin
Canon: My S-Class Hunters (+ Sheep PGAU)
Family: Cirrus Network
AU idea(s): I tried to make a normal brothers au and then remembered that's impossible.
❥ Original nom de plume was Eugene River, I am TBD if he is changing his last name to match Family themeing at all so bear with me. But if you knew him before his arrival on the ship you would have known him as Eugene River!
❥ He grew up completely normally with his cute little brother Yoohyun Haeyeon and his normal parents, none of whom were originally affiliated with any specific Family. But because his little brother is SO CUTE and SO PERFECT he kept getting scouted by all of the Families to join them. His parents were supportive of whatever Haeyeon wanted to do, but Eugene was very protective and didn't want him to join any Family that wasn't going to treat him right!! He kept accidentally pissing people off in other Families by implying they weren't good enough for his brother or weren't going to treat him right.
❥ Eventually Haeyeon decided to join Siren's Melodies because the entertainment industry pays really good. Haeyeon picks up things so fast (on account of being!!! perfect!!!), that for the early years of his life his managers just kind of had him doing everything to see what stuck. Eventually they landed on acting and he's a big movie star now.
❥ Eugene tagged along to ALL of his little brother's gigs; any time the working conditions seemed bad he'd kick up a HUGE fuss, so he accidentally made some enemies in The Arias as a result, oopsie.
❥ He also had a habit of trying to look after child stars around his age or younger so they'd grow up healthy despite being in showbiz. This just kept ending badly for one reason or another (they'd have a falling out or disappear or die or something else, insert your falling out reason here).
❥ Haeyeon saw that being even slightly connected to The Arias was not doing great for Eugene's mental health so he pushed his brother away and refused to meet him or speak to him in the hopes that it would get him to stop getting tangled up in other people's business.
❥ Eugene took this the wrong way and thought that if he joined a Family it would make his brother talk to him again.
❥ He finally joined a Family an hour ago and then immediately got pulled onto the ship before he could try to contact his brother to get back into his life

❥ For his profession he's a Specialized Veterinary Technician Assistant. Most of the time his job is just about assisting vets with animals. Normal stuff. But since not everyone in the world is fully human, he can also assist with anyone who has non-human traits! For example, if someone has wing sores and needs them looked at to figure out the problem, a normal hospital might not know what to do, but the specialty clinic can handle it! People with strange attributes also tend to have Blessings, so they're equipped to handle people with haywire Blessings and the like.

Roles/CR you're interested in:
❥ People who would have met him while the Families were trying to woo his little brother into joining them!
❥ People who Eugene looked after when they were younger! Maybe they had a falling out! Tell me about it.
❥ Fans of famous actor Haeyeon!
❥ People who know/work with his little brother!
❥ People who he may have pissed off* by saying his little brother was too good to be in their Family when he was anywhere between the ages of ten and twenty years old, timelines are not a thought out thing for this au. (*I'd prefer to keep this silly comedy levels of neg cr if someone is interested in this one, that's just the vibe I am going for with it)
❥ People who knew him AFTER his brother stopped talking to him and he was frantically trying to join a Family so his brother would talk to him again
❥ People he has met during his job!
❥ High school/childhood friends!
❥ If you can pitch me a good enough concept I will also accept siblings, he's gotta be the oldest sibling tho.

Wants and Dreams: I'm sorry I used a lot of words but I'm very excited to play thank u

Open to All | Yoshi "Nanashi" Nanase | 1BitHeart (SCP CRAU)

[personal profile] justonezero 2025-03-09 06:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Dani
Character: Yoshi "Nanashi" Nanase (original nom de plume: Four)
Canon: 1BitHeart (SCP CRAU)
Family: Sirens
Looking for Acquaintances from school, but no one super close because he no longer attends in person! Fans of his cute moon bunny themed Vtuber, Mochiru Moon - he specializes in gaming and singing and started off indie before getting grabbed by HaZE.

Any other notes: He's from an utterly normal family that was never a member of an actual Family, with the nom de plume of Four. His parents taught him to be nice to others which he has interpreted as "go out of your way to do nice things for others all the time forever." As a result, he was always giving classmates just about anything they asked for from him with seemingly no regard for his own wants or needs, which made him come across as kind of a huge weirdo! He's bullied over it as a result, but since he always claims he is not in fact being bullied there hasn't been much action taken to put a stop to any of it. May or may not have also been looking directly at people's desires with a Blessing for extra creepy factor. He's otherwise a regular student at age 16 and would have probably met others in regular high school accordingly. Within the last half a year or so, he stopped attending school entirely and has not been seen around Port Manteau since.

Coincidentally, there's a similarly cheerful and sweet Vtuber who got picked up by corporate not long after! Mochiru Moon, an originally indie Vtuber who exploded in popularity due to a high quality rig and other self-made assets. Specializing in gaming but also capable of singing and holding the audience's attention with a lot of rapidfire, terminally online chatter, his subscription count rose quickly and he was grabbed by HaZE as a number of agencies were looking to make their own offers to him, and was subsequently recruited to the Family when they realized he also has Blessings! He's themed around a moon rabbit and is known for a fandom that's either all positivity with no room for any negative comments, or a chunk of fans who believe themselves to be guardians of their oshi against those who would take advantage of his kindness, as he believes and is sympathetic to every single sob story and request for aid he gets from his chat.

He almost certainly has a HaZE nom de plume now I just need to figure one out. While he has shown up to HaZE headquarters as needed, he's kind of a headache to deal with because he's such a doormat he tends to bend to the wishes of his fans immediately - he has, however, been improving (slowly) on this front.
justonezero: (So what?)

Additions and Changes

I'll just edit this comment if I got anything hilariously wrong/want to add prior connections

-Nom De Plume: Jorunna
-Gray is his manager and the one primarily leashing him and his doormat tendencies
-Ayu keeps having to take over whenever Gray is busy with other talents tho
-Is peripherally aware of the Hat Kid (Hymn)

crownedinblood: (let retribution hold dominion)

OTA | Mydei | Honkai Star Rail

[personal profile] crownedinblood 2025-03-09 06:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Mischa
Character: Mydei/ nom de plume TBD
Canon: Honkai Star Rail
Family: Acidia
AU idea(s):
- Child of a single mother who left his dad shortly after he was born: doesn’t actually know anything about his dad except that he turned out to be really shitty and tbh has negative interest in knowing anything about his dad. Definitely kind of a mama’s boy.
- Got into a fair number of fights when he was little when other kids would say shitty things about his mom/him not having a dad, between being a mama’s boy and wanting to come to her defense and having a quick temper. This kind of stops both because he ends up winning most of the fights and then gets too tall and big as a teenager for others to want to fight.
- Is actually a good student (except for all the fights) and works hard: wants to ensure that his mom’s sacrifices to raise him are worth it. Goes to college on a scholarship, and once he is done with undergrad, goes to get his master’s in library science (and archiving).
- Gets recruited by Acidia when finishing high school: they end up paying for graduate school, though not his undergrad. Currently working as an archivist for Acidia and doing some other medicine-related stuff on the side, though his day job is a librarian at a public library, mostly working in the children’s section. And somewhat inadvertently the resident sexy if intimidating librarian: while he’s great with kids, he’s not so good with adults.
- Has had a few casual boyfriends and flings, but hasn’t dated anyone he would want to bring home to his mom. Meanwhile, his mom has been hinting that he should bring home a nice boy to meet her One of These Days.
- Has had any number of side hustles and random jobs in undergrad and grad school (because he still needed to pay rent/eat/etc and was not about to ask his mother for money). Among the long list of random shit he did at some point: tutoring, worked at some cafes (barista/cook/waiter), naked model for life drawing classes, probably did a little (clothed) modeling of some kind, sometimes cooking pop-ups because he’s a great cook, tutor, worked at some cafes, tried being a masseuse, etc. He did also formerly have a page on whatever this setting's equivalent of OnlyFans is during late undergrad/early grad school: he hasn't posted anything new to it in a couple of years, but he didn't take anything down, either.

Roles/CR you're interested in: former classmates, library patrons, friends, casual ex-boyfriends/flings, honestly anything. met him at one of his random-ass former jobs? live in the same apartment building maybe? etc.

I feel like Cash and him could've hung out in high school because Cash was also that delinquent who was good at school and got into dumb fights a lot :|a (also late-20s, so around the same age, ish)

Probably lost contact when Cash dropped out of uni, though.

OTA | Echo (Pandora Hearts)

[personal profile] tweedledumb 2025-03-09 07:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Marie
Character: Echo
Canon: Pandora Hearts
Family: The Holy Order
AU idea(s):
• She's only been a member of the Holy Order for about a year now!
• Originally born and raised in a family under the Unholy Disorder alongside her twin sister
• Like, everything seemed gucci back then, and then BAM suddenly Echo's making plans to go to Holy Order, even though the rest of her family-family is still very much Unholy Disorder
• Her family-family runs a casino that entails some especially shady practices, such as predatory money lending (that results in dangerous loan sharking) and so forth—but she's trying to distance herself from all of that, that's not her!!
• ULTIMATELY SHE'S STILL A HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT with decent grades, who is somehow doing holy order things
• Though she and [Zwei] were once peas in a pod, they haven't been on good terms since her departure from Unholy Disorder

Roles/CR you're interested in:
• Classmates?!
• Does anybody in the Holy Order want to have "taken her under their wing" up until they hopped on the cruise? Because senpai/role model(s) sounds cute.
• Anyone in Unholy Disorder who used to know her AND her old name, and know how close she and Zwei were (even people who knew her before she went to Holy Disorder, if you want)
• ANYONE WHO MIGHT KNOW HER THROUGH THE CASINO HER FAMILY RUNS, bc despite being teenaged, and very much thanks to the casino being corrupt in the first place, it wasn't rare to see "the daughters of the owner" roaming about and watching

Wants and Dreams: what's a good angel name for her- also if anyone else has any other au/cr ideas i am down to consider!! i may be overlooking things and that's only because i am very out of the loops, pls forgive me

OTA | Zwei (Pandora Hearts)

[personal profile] tweedledumber 2025-03-09 07:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Marie
Character: Zwei
Canon: Pandora Hearts
Family: The Unholy Disorder
AU idea(s):
• Has been raised under the Unholy Disorder since birth
• Her family-family runs a casino that entails some especially shady practices, such as predatory money lending (that results in loan sharking) and so forth—and she is expected to take over the business one day (though rumors indicate that it was originally going to go to [Echo])
• ULTIMATELY IS A HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT THOUGH!? does very poorly in school lol
• Used to be TIGHT with [Echo], but not anymore—not since her sister's departure from the Unholy Disorder, which she took very personally for Personal reasons

Roles/CR you're interested in:
• Classmates?!
• Anyone in the Unholy Disorder who knew how close she and [Echo] used to be, and probably knows how hung up [Zwei] is on [Echo's] aBANDONMENT!!11 (not that she's quiet about it but yknow)
• ANYONE WHO MIGHT KNOW HER THROUGH THE CASINO HER FAMILY RUNS, bc despite being teenaged, and very much thanks to the casino being corrupt in the first place, it wasn't rare to see "the daughters of the owner" roaming about and watching (or in [Zwei]'s case, "egging people on" or "giddily trying to steal drinks from patrons")

Wants and Dreams: if anyone has any other AU ideas that they think I could insert myself into, I'M DOWN TO CONSIDER!! i may be overlooking things and that's only because i am very out of the loops, pls forgive me

OTA | VITA (V11A847779) / Nanako

[personal profile] tax_deductible_donation 2025-03-09 07:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: aj
Character: (Real, not clickbait) VITA (V11A847779) / Nanako
(Clickbait) Eve / Cort
Canon: OC
Family: Eonia
AU Info: Goes by Eve (female presenting) or Cort (male presenting) in different spheres of their life and does NOT let them cross each other generally. This will be much harder to keep separate on a boat and also people who are either nosy or sleuthy or whatever are free to have suspicions or guesses.

I'll generally use she when Nnk is being Eve and he when Nnk is being Cort. The TL;DR is that Eve/Cort has a lot of uncomfortability with themself and is trying to resolve that by being different people.

→ Eve runs a youtube channel mostly being like 5-Minute-Crafts but outdoorsy. Like twiggy girl in a school uniform shows you how to light a fire. Completely impractical looking but feeds the algorithm well. Also has a relatively robust social media presence of mostly innocuous or kind of airheaded posts.
→ Does do IRL stuff as Eve as well, people who have met her would say she's a little cranky but generally kind. Not huge on going out but Eve is generally the more 'public' IRL persona. Grocery shops as Eve, that kind of thing.
→ A little nosy and a little odd but also often distanced and fairly private. More likely to tell you about you than herself. Will occasionally reply to comments on her videos with something about the commentor that is dead-on and honestly probably embarrassing.

→ Cort does sketchy ebay basically. He's much more 'underground' on the internet and the kind of person a friend of a friend of a friend might pass info to so you can get that super rare Pokemon card you want or something. You can also buy a kidney from him. Don't ask questions.
→ Is a shut-in. Internet most of the time. Orders food in but makes the Doordasher leave it on the doorstep. Occasionally makes the rare IRL appearance but hates people and will either speak very little or say things you really wish he wouldn't.

Roles/CR you're interested in:
→ Friends? Acquaintances? People who have communicated regularly over chat or email?
→ People that Cort has sold things to, lets go illegal shoppers lets go give me everything girl
→ If you want something Secret and probably Tragic but also Deeply Emotional for Eve/Cort to someday go batshit on you about there is an [open slot] for the pre-Eve/Cort naming time period in their life.
→ Someone that Cort has or regularly does gift things to. He runs a business but is definitely on the bleeding heart side too and will go out of his way to freebie something to someone if it gets him in the kokoro.
→ idk im really down for anything

Open to All | Kestrel Hath (Wind on Fire)

[personal profile] ifyoulive 2025-03-09 07:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Dzel
Character: Kestrel Hath (nom de plume: Ivy)
Canon: Wind on Fire
Family: Acidia

Canon character summary:
- teenager, 15 at series end
- rebel
- soulmates with her twin brother "if you live, I live // if you die, I die" etc
- fuck the police
- fuck slavery
- "dies"/soulmerges with her twin bro to save the world

AU idea(s):
- 16
- not dead
- only child
- grew up in the city adjacent to Manteau City, was one of the leaders/main healer of a street gang, was known as Ivy
- sometimes came to Manteau City to steal trade
- became amnesiac ~1 year before game start
- forgot her old gang and "left them to die" so now they're trying to kill her because they don't understand why she left and they spooked her too much for her to admit to the amnesia.
- fled to Manteau City and tries to roleplay as the original Ivy & hide her amnesia (badly)
- she's meaner now cuz these randos keep trying to kill her while telling her she "was the best of them, how dare she" etc
- OG Ivy's healing ability caught the attention of Acidia because of its strength (worked proportionally to her will to live)
- at some point post-amnesia the healing method switched to insults and is significantly weaker, current Ivy has no idea why Acidia wanted her so much

Roles/CR you're interested in:
- everything below applies to post-amnesia cr that formed in the one year timespan pre-limelight!!
- people she stole from/tried to steal from
- people she's mean to
- people that are mean to her (real mean or funny mean both fine)
- people that are nice to her despite her being a wet kitten fighty shithead
- people she's healed via insults. they can either clock it or not, she will explain nothing
- people that she's lied to about her amnesia that won't call her out on it until after she's on the boat cuz i want to play with it :^)
- adults that tried to take her in that she kicked in the shin or something
- someone that employs her but privately/lets her work part time because being seen in public frequently is too ~risky~ (she will also not explain why i'm sorry)
- if you're Acidia she's probably extra awkward around you and lies extra hard

Wants and Dreams:
mess. i'm sorry she's a shit

NEW CHARACTER | ELLIOT NIGHTRAY (PANDORA HEARTS (SNEK PGAU))

[personal profile] cuttingwords 2025-03-10 12:24 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Cleo
Character: Elliot Nightray (aka Chai Felis)
Canon: Pandora Hearts (post Serpentine Horizon/snekgame)
Potential Family Option: He's Eonia!
AU idea(s): He is going to be from a poverty background (because it's a fun role reversal ok), and was born into Eonia. He had to scramble to help his family with money from a pretty early age, but stubbornly always made time for school and music and taking care of stray cats. He would get into scuffles a lot though, because he is very resentful of the upper class and is inclined to simply hit anyone "above" him who says anything negative about him or esp his family. He probably lied about his age as a high schooler to get night shift jobs. As a freshly graduated adult he is now trying to find a career where he can use his skills to combat class inequality. With prejudice. He's an eat the rich kinda boy and will find his visions of being upper crust highly offensive. But I have no specific details ironed out except that he dated Affogato at some point and they broke up, so help me fill those in!

Roles/CR you're interested in: I would love to have family members! (as in immediate home family). Also anyone he may have tussled with before, or who helped him stir shit, or helped him feed stray cats... Classmates/teachers from school or people who worked with/employed him also very good.

Wants and Dreams: I would definitely love for him to have some rivals or enemies to yell at, esp if they're very nice to him and he dies of embarrassment. Also would enjoy anything that helps cement his kinda shady/dangerous childhood.

Player Name: aj
Character: enkidu NOM DE PLUME PENDING
Canon: fate/expanded universe never ending canon

=> does pottery, has a studio that specializes in like. pet figurines and paw print impressions and stuff.

=> exes, friends, enemies
=> everything anything
=> I AM FAIRLY OPEN I LOVE THINGS
Wants and Dreams: i love cr and dumb things and drama things and anything plz opens hands
