[hatejakku]

CANON: Star Wars
CASTMATES ALREADY AVAILABLE: Finn
CONTACT INFO: PM here, discord jb#9174, linatrinch

WANTED CHARACTER: Rey, Poe, Rose, Jannah, Luke, Leia, Han, etc etc.
WHY YOU THINK THEY'D DO GREAT HERE: Eastbound is a very different level of fantasy than what Star Wars is, so there's a lot of situations that the characters haven't encountered before. Also, Finn's all alone and scared and there's zombies and please help him.

WANTED: Penny Dreadful Pals

[matermali]

CANON: Penny Dreadful
CASTMATES ALREADY TAKEN: Vanessa Ives
CONTACT INFO: PM or Pactoris#0587 @ Discord

WANTED CHARACTERS: Vanessa's faves: Ethan Chandler, Sir Malcolm, Sembene, Dr. Frankenstein, Caliban/"John Clare", or Ferdinand Lyle. Dorian Gray, Lily, Hecate, or Evelyn Poole would fit in well. Even Dr. Seward, Renfield, or Dracula, if you really want to confuse Vanessa. (So...everyone!)
WHY YOU THINK THEY'D DO GREAT HERE: Penny Dreadful is a Victorian gothic horror, so...most characters are pretty perfect for the Serthica setting! They're made for weird and supernatural shenanigans, and may also be useful to have around if Vanessa ever loses her marbles.

no promises but what if tho

[bearshermark]

PLAYER: Solar
CONTACT INFO: Discord: Solar #6657

CANON: Dragon Quest XI S
OFFERED CHARACTER: Eleven

ONE-SENTENCE ELEVATOR PITCH: bean of light
TIMELINE POINT YOU'RE CONSIDERING: It occurs to me I've never played El from post-canon bc accomplished hero is boring. BUT this setting holds a lot of "fun" memories and it'd be interesting to see him tackle those, as well as have the fortitude finally to endure events without falling apart entirely (probably).

the umbrella academy

[somebadnews]

CANON: The Umbrella Academy
CASTMATES ALREADY AVAILABLE: Five and Allison
CONTACT INFO: lonesheep or PM-me!

WANTED CHARACTERS: Klaus, Luther, Viktor, Ben, Lila, Diego (;; just left us) and long shot: the Handler or Reggie if you want to be fun
WHY YOU THINK THEY'D DO GREAT HERE: I'm in a longterm commitment to getting the Hargreeves together and I will never let it go.

Klaus completely vibes with this setting. Undead everywhere and necromancer pals, he'd have the time of his life! There's so many opportunities for him to die and get resurrected. I'd love that for him.

Luther would be amazing to have around. I'd love to play off of Luther with Five, just once in my life! I love their relationship. Also I would enjoy Number One meeting the Trek Number One very much.

Viktor to cause all the apocalypses we need, nobody does it better. Also another selfish one, Five currently lost his memories of Viktor and hasn't sorted that out yet, let that be painful fun.

Ben particularly ghost!Ben, but also Sparrow!Ben would throw them all for a loop. Another one that's really fun to deal with in this setting, and I think he'd quickly become everyone's favorite Hargreeves (or rank lower than Five if Sparrow!Ben, but you know... I love him anyway.)

Lila SHE IS GREAT. Chaotic wildcard we all need. And how fun is her power in a game like this? Five would be thrilled.

Diego has been gone for such a tiny amount of time, but I can't not mention him. Five is in the middle of his meltdown over his disappearance, what if he showed back up immediately? He's my secret favorite and I miss him already.

[wantshappiness]

PLAYER: Orange Crates
CONTACT INFO: just PM me here

CANON: Zettai Karen Children (aka when Gintama meets X-Men but with more boob jokes)
OFFERED CHARACTER: Kumoi Yuuri

ONE-SENTENCE ELEVATOR PITCH: socially inept anxiety chihuahua with self-worth issues determined to seek redemption while not believing she can be redeemed. Telepath and hypno user (think illusions but can kill you and also memory manipulation). Current occupation (at time of canon point): run away daughter going through a rebellious phase against her morally bankrupt father and brother. Desperate for validation and family. Will follow you like a sad puppy if you show her even an iota of half-genuine care.

TIMELINE POINT YOU'RE CONSIDERING: Before she resolves any of her trauma and at the height of her 'I don't deserve anything good because MY HANDS ARE COVERED IN BLOOD but I'll do what I can to make things right while pretending I'm okay with not ever being worthy of love or happiness'. So basically when she's thirteen near the end of the middle school arc.

A GIF TRIBUTE TO THE GODS: Not a gif, but...
