HANDWAVED CR AND MINGLE MEME

HANDWAVED CR AND MINGLE MEME

Has your character been here for a while now? Are you tired of meeting characters for the first time even though they've been actually sharing a class and/or work space for a month now? Well, here is the solution for you! The Handwaved CR Meme! Instead of stressing out trying to thread with every character you would reasonably encounter right off the bat, here is an opportunity to OOCly discuss and establish casual meetings and connections that have already happened but never had the time or need to be threaded out.

This is best used for things like characters sharing a class in the Coven, or working in the same location, or pursuing the same quests. Or maybe even being roomates! Anything where characters have been occupying the same space for the last while, but haven't had the opportunity to thread it out yet. Get those first building blocks of CR out of the way, and prepare yourself for more intense threading later.

THE RULES:
  • I'm going to start off by posting some different subject headers, centered around common activities or locations I can think of. Beneath these headers, you can go ahead and post about what your character is generally doing there and the impression they may give off.
  • Then, other people react! Reply to people who have posted with how your character would generally engage with their presence, and establish some nice, casual CR. Are you that loudmouth that won't stop talking over people in Evocation class? This is where people can tell you how you make them feel!
  • Post your own subject headers! I'm just putting up what comes to mind, but if you have other subjects you'd like to mingle over, go ahead and make them a reality.
  • These don't necessarily have to be first meetings, it can also be used to flesh out CR you've established elsewhere.

Justine is sort of an oddity. She learns things as they are relevant to what's going on with her in game at any given time so her interests might end up shifting because of this. For right now she's focused on the non-combat end of the spectrum.

One thing that she's learning is to make potions via Alchemy. Justine is trying to be more creative with it creating potions of escape that turn people into the wind for a few seconds or finding a way to make a really good hallucinogen that she can use to quiet the voices in her head. Those take a lot more materials than she has those so she'll be looking for people to go into the woods with her or gather materials for her. Trading is always an option.

What she's currently spent the most time working on is Enchantment. Specifically she's sewing runes (or spells) into clothes or cloth. Examples include stealth spells on her clothing and ways to keep up with her monster friends while having no fighting experience. She's embroidered cold spells into cloth to use as coolers for day trips to the beach (since she's learning to swim) as well as sewing in runes on gauze clothes for healing. She's learning how to do Evocation but it isn't her focus so she's weak at it. Justine knows how to make a relaxing breeze thus far.

She is looking into a way to breath underwater for reasons.

That's all she's really working on. Where she goes next and what she continues to specialize in might change but that's the fun of RP. Seeing where it goes.
