it rhymes with valentine.

hey all, i'm pel and you can find me @ gambeson if you need me! i'm delighted to be here and bring you a complete bastard.

john constantine is from england and does magic and has never fucked up or screwed anyone over or lied, ever! he is very cuddly, in fact, and has no desire to pick your pocket.

this version (i know there are a few) is the original flavor from the comics, stretching back hundreds of issues to some truly weird stuff. yet sethica is still pretty weird by his standards. good job, guys. this version of john is probably the roughest of all of them, if you're more familiar with keanu or matt ryan, but that doesn't mean he's not looking to make friends and influence people. he just has a .........special way of going about it.

i look forward to summoning demons with all of u

Hi plot buddy! I don't know too much about Constantine other than some overall stuff, but I'm excited to learn more through RP. Gonna add you on plurk.

[strewth]

same re: tua, looking forward 2 it

[kahl_175]

Welcome! I'm Spider, currently bringing in Kahl-175 from Warframe this round. I only know a couple issues' worth of random stuff about Constantine, but I'm excited to see somebody playing him!

[strewth]

thank you! on my end, excited to see what kahl's whole deal is; he looks like a fascinatingly strange pick!

[kahl_175]

Kahl's a good lad! I had the opposite problem of the average comic book character, apping him--up until a month ago, he had literally twelve and a half minutes of canon backstory! I'm super excited that the Warframe devs came back to him and made him a fleshed-out character now, and I'm looking forward to bouncing him off more people in Eastbound.

[strewth]

i have a not-so-secret love of characters doing revolutionary sort of stuff, so i'll defs keep my eye out for him!

[kahl_175]

Excellent! Kahl's going to be making as much good trouble as he can. If you get any ideas you'd like to play out, just let me know!

[rumorate]

Hello and welcome!

I'm Emily and I play Allison Hargreeves from the Umbrella Academy, aka the show of superpowered disasters. I was so excited to see Constantine on the TDM (I'm more familiar with the live action versions, but passingly familiar with some of his comics arcs).

If you're still down for tag ins on that, I'd love to slide her in there still.

[strewth]

hello hello!

feel free to tag me anywhere, man. john just made a network post as well; bully as you see fit.

i'm only tentatively familiar with tua but the cast here looks great. so happy to see an allison as well, she always seemed super interesting from what i've heard!

[somebadnews]

Yes excellent, I'm very here for Constantine. Don't hate me for only having experienced the Keanu version, but I'm familiar with the comic version through osmosis and I'm a fan.

I play Five and Marcos here, and Five is probably going to give him a hard time just by having the bad luck of being paired with Lila for more than ten minutes. And them having the same accent. It's suspicious.

Anyway, I'll add you on plurk. :>

[strewth]

i do have a reading list on john's journal, just sayin.....

ahem anyway, would love to have john be accosted by someone else who is older than they look. john and five may be roughly the same age in lived years (give or take a decade? like i've said i haven't seen much tua), which i find deeply hilarious.

[somebadnews]

ROUGHLY. Five is pushing sixty, but he has you beat on looking younger. He's also an asshole, but-! I mean you would be too if you looked like a teenager at his age, he has every excuse.

I'm sure they'll get along great.

[strewth]

john is 66 in his canonpoint, thanks real-world aging

they can be assholes TOGETHER. im sure it will go great places that dont involve knives

[slippin]

VERY EXCITED, it's not every day you meet a horrific vision of your worst potential future (plus magic)

[strewth]

now now he never works in a cinnabon

[slippin]

shit my bad

second worst potential future

[matermali]

Whoo, another Brit! Also YAY Constantine. I'm Jesse and I play Vanessa Ives (another from England!) from Penny Dreadful, just apped Vi from Arcane, and am excited to engage with Constantine's very cuddly behavior. cherto is my plurk if you get someone with that name bothering you on there~

Please tell Vanessa all about these demon summonings, though. She has a...complicated history with things from Hell, to say the least.

[strewth]

people who don't have a complicated history with hell haven't been living interesting lives, one john's opinion

happy 2 see both vanessa and vi, i love both arcane and eva green. one of my big cr goals is to have as many women as possible punch / slap john, thank you for helping me edge ever closer to making quota

[faceblocker]

It would take a LOT for Vanessa to slap anyone, so consider that a Challenge I guess.

Probably not so hard to earn a punch from Vi, lmao. You already know that, though.

[thedreamer]

Hey there and welcome! I'm CJ and I play the Doctor here from Doctor Who. I honestly think their interactions will be hilarious, at the very least, from what little I know of Constantine so I'm looking forward to their CR!

Shall be adding you on Plurk momentarily~

[strewth]

i love that john has been hit with harry potters and now a doctor who, the two major franchises he's most likely to 4th wall. (he's just gonna say the doctor reminds him of a bad episode of blake's 7 or something, i can't deal with a full 4th wall lmao.)

anyway! yes! they sound like they could be interesting, always. love to have you

[inferus]

Hi, welcome to the game! I'm Rizzy. I know of Constantine from other iterations primarily, but I'm excited to see and get to know the comic version of him.

I have a demon here, specifically the devil, Wrath, and a version of Cerberus but as a teenager, Red. Looking forward to tossing both his way. :) Will add you on plurk. I'm snowed on there.

[strewth]

heyyyy friend. john has had a personal spat with (a version of) the devil for literal decades at this point, can't wait for him to meet yet another version.

cant wait!

[incantates]

Hello Pel, I welcome every constantine version. Can they talk magic sometime?

[strewth]

i would love it! john would love it! john will also ramble pretentiously because that is also unfortunately something he loves

[incantates]

Please do, Magnus would actually listen and pretentiously ramble back, as he does. It's already a beautiful friendship in the making.

[valeas]

hi, pel! i'm vi and i play emilia here from an obscure series called kingdom of the wicked. needless to say, there are demons and i'm definitely going to need them to bump paths at some point. and can i just say constantine has already been such a delight to read? just fantastic. welcome and i hope you like it here! c:

[strewth]

looking forward to it! and i'm glad he's fun to read, #1 priority in rp <33
