ooc intro & the likes!
Hi everyone! Welcome to Eastbound, where nothing goes as planned, and the caravan-chasing bear is taking its sweet time making a cameo.
Without further ado, the game issssssss...
Applications nevertheless remain open until 23:59 GMT, 2 April (Friday) for any further newcomers. They can join in on the fun at any point in time!
Please doublecheck your character is on the TAKEN LIST, when you have a second! You are welcome to consider canon any samples you wrote in the Sa-Hareth setting as part of your application. Note: transfer ongoing application sample threads to the Eastbound communities if you want any future tags to them to count towards activity check requirements.
Take a look over our first event: you can now ask any mod questions linked to it, or ask any questions to your black little hearts' content.
Oh, and here's our first
eastbound. If you want to mingle, you can also reply here with...

CONTACT:
TELL US ABOUT YOUR FINE SELF: I'm an intake counselor at a law firm and and the time I spend not chasing down attorneys is spent on playing barbies on the internet or playing video games.
CHARACTER: Winnifred "Winnie" Prismall
CANON: Original
ELEVATOR PITCH FOR YOUR CHARACTER: A noblewoman from Victorian England who doesn't have a soul, can steal souls from others, and is plotting to overthrow the government in a rebellion plot. Because she has no soul, she doesn't actually feel emotions very much or very well and all of it's faked. But she believes in fairness and justice and will do what she can to see the scales of justice balanced.
ICE BREAKER ROUNDS:
i. Here your character is, minding their own or someone else's business in a tavern of the Sa-Hareth merchants' arena, when in comes a particularly persistent middle-aged woman with an eerily trademark haircut, insisting your character should give her prompt, first-class and no-nonsense service now, or she'll speak to their manager. How does your character react?
Winnie laughs in utter delight and does her best to deal with it, chattering amicably to unguard the woman and find her the help she needs. If Winne's attempts are unsuccessful, Winnie will lean full-tilt into Very Malicious Compliance.
ii. A weirdly hapless humanoid undead that thinks itself a dog keeps following your character (home). What does your character name it?
Sir Winston Beauregard the 3rd.
ANY EVENT PLANS SO FAR? She's going to be in the jail, extorted by Mingyu to be translator (which Winnie is going to find delightful), largely walk around the undead w/them barely noticing her like it's NBD, trying to sell her corset for moneys....
WInnie can speak English and French, and passably Greek and Latin.
ANYTHING YOUR CHARACTER URGENTLY NEEDS FIGURED OUT IN SA-HARETH?
Where to get her hair done, the latest fashions, and all the ins and outs of the larger government bodies, thanks.

This is normal human behavior. Maybe she’s in shock Five, u don’t know
no subject
Not that Five's one to judge, but he does anyway! Just watching her so suspiciously while he tries to decide what her deal is. He drives himself crazy with these things.

I mean Winnie wouldn’t outright say it anyhow, but like. At least you tried.
