HANDWAVED CR AND OOC MINGLE MEME
(and bonus welcome wagon for newbies!)



Has your character been here for a while now? Are you tired of meeting characters for the first time even though they've actually been 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 neighbors or roommates! Anything where characters have been occupying the same space for a 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:

• There are few different subject headers, centered around common activities or locations we 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. The current headers are: Coven Lessons, Workplaces Around the City, Haven Neighbors, Questing Companions, Making a Scene or Shady Deals?.
• 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! We're 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.

WELCOME WAGON AND OOC INTRO FOR NEW PLAYERS:

• For all the things a new character needs please head towards this top-level. OOC Intro for new players and characters and Welcome Wagon for either OOC or IC answers of questions your character would have upon arrival.
• Due to the rolling acceptances over the past few months, if you joined the game any time during that period and want to introduce or re-introduce yourself, go for it!

Jin Guangyao | MDZS

[turmoiling]

Jin Guangyao works for a rather large trading company in Aefenglom (one large enough to have boats and warehouses at the harbor, as well as offices in the shopping district), helping with financial organization and accounting, but more importantly organizing a bit of trade between the Underground and Aefenglom. Taking advantage of the Mirrorbound's special status like that iiiiis a little questionable, probably. But it's not as if he can carry a whole convoy with him, so it in-person trade tends to be limited to smaller, higher-value goods.

He's also a member of the Mirrorbound Council and treats it like a second job even if it isn't, really.

Between those things (and sometimes quests) he's a very busy man snake naga, and works long hours, but always seems pleasant and polite. With running around for one thing or another, it's easy to find him just about anywhere in the city, or out on a trip to the Underground in person.

trade with the Underground, you say? I'm thinking Inkchanted could be interested in some supplies from there and vice versa! Perhaps they can have some business associations. The Underground doesn't seem like the kind of society where Monsters are that interested in having their own magic, but hey, if there's an in perhaps Waver has politely asked for some advertisements to be sent over that way with supplies, if Jin Guangyao would oblige!

Now I'm wondering if Underground monsters ever come visit the city, since there isn't a reverse prohibition on visits!

But yes, he would absolutely lend a hand and bring along a few flyers!
