arc v: alem | cr & plotting meme
Sound the drums, head on to war — seized citadel Alem has already been there for the lion's share of a year.
Under the Scavengers' guidance, the four sand worms the party captured gently graze underground corridors allowing the group to reach halfway up Mount Attevar. From there, they quickly infiltrate Alem through a bustling trade route.
Young King Deimar strikes a simple bargain: serve Alem in its bitter last days until inevitable downfall, and the citadel will grant access to its Beacon before the final evacuation is completed.
Sounds simple enough. Now, survive it.
Characters arrive today, with our first proper taste of event chaos due on 27-28 January. Get your character settled in, check out the setting and their assignment, and strike some CR:

Feel free to add on either!
CHARACTER & CANON: Kamala Khan & Marvel Cinematic Universe
THEIR ONE-LINE ELEVATOR PITCH: tiny fangirl turns into a superhero; may or may not be Kevin Feige's attempt to stop DC from using Green Lantern
THEIR ASSIGNED LEVEL & ROLE IN ALEM Northern Tower as the local catcher of people who fall off!!! Hope you like a giant purple lightshow. :)
WHY THEY'RE GOING TO MESS EVERYTHING UP, REALLY: Kamala has no concept of acceptable losses. It's not a question of if, but when she overextends herself to save everyone.
THEY'VE SECRETLY GOT A THING FOR RATHAKKU, DON'T THEY? Uh.... no thank you. She's into buff, brown boys. (Sorry, Bruno!)
PLOTS AND PLANS: Nothing concrete! She will of course be taking her job seriously and will push herself to the edge to keep everyone breathing.
One plot point for this arc and especially for the North Tower crew will be not to talk about what she can do.
Minor spoilers for a show that's been out since the summer? Damage Control hunted and nearly killed her multiple times for having abilities while being brown and probably Muslim. If it makes anyone feel better, they tried it with Peter Parker too. Maybe they just really hate teens in general. /shrug emoji!! (But, no really it's a plot point so she's paranoid about it getting out to the wrong people.)
Also can someone please talk to her about the fact they're lowkey in Hell? It's breaking her brain.
WHAT THEY CAN OFFER: Protection. Kamala generates 'hard light' which she can use as a shield. She can also use it to move around freely by creating things like steps and of course catch those guys who keep falling from the tower.
CR YOU WANT: Teen friends, adult mentors, and man children to bicker with. /stares at Pietro!!

i'm tempted for the shield option, or like just having a 'normal' person to talk to. fudgey linked me to kamala and wanda talking about pietro, so i'm sure he can show up and it'll be disappointing to know that he doesn't live to the hype of wanda's twin 😔 (UNLESS..he does)
no subject
I can really go for either. I do think it would be cute if Kamala was a tiny bit overprotective because they need to return him to their timeline alive!!! Wanda deserves this :(
no subject
let's do the shield option, then!! it might also be cool if pietro notices she's made a bridge of light for x or y reason and he just streamlines over it like "for me? 👉 👈" and they could meet that way!
no subject
It'll be a really cute first meeting! :)

I can't wait for her to tell Wanda to keep her secret because the government is gonna government.

Area man Supports Powered Youth and will inevitably immediately want to set Kamala up on a friend date with America in the event they make it home so he might be useful later down the line to have a chat with about powers and power-related fears and to pass along a pep talk that culminates in the heavy suggestion that if anybody messes with her dr. strange will PERSONALLY make it his problem
no subject
She would be down for a friend date in any case because it's lonely out here. :( where are the other teen heroes?!

She will worry about Kamala, do whatever she can to help keep her safe.
(p.s. I also play the Doctor, and he'll probably be messaging Kamala at some point to check on her, too, they need to catch up!)
also adding you on plurk!

Oh man I was thinking yesterday about how much I missed their CR because I saw a gifset of him on Tumblr. They're overdue for a check in! They can even bond over bullying Five to eat and hydrate too.
