WELCOME & AU PLANNING - JUNE 2017

WELCOME TO THE FIRST PLANNING POST!

Congratulations on being accepted into the game. Now let's have a big meeting post, plan and have fun together!

AU PLANNING
The AU in this game is completely player's choice. We encourage you to take a look at the city and plan accordingly! Your AU information can be added to your character hub, should you desire. As long as it is available somewhere, and others can take a quick glance and know what the character's AU is.

We only ask that you try to keep everything tasteful and respect our decision if we feel you're going too far. As the game begins, you are free to continue using this post to plan or ask the mods first-post related questions. We'll do our best to answer in a timely manner!

The city of Eddan is very much a typical metropolis, so your characters can have any job that would make sense in a busy city. They don't have to be restricted to the school, or have a school job. If you're not sure, don't be shy about asking. There's a lot of freedom!

Roll the dice
There is also a randomized AU signup if you'd like to leave it to chance who your family members are and establish pre-game CR with new people. But if you'd rather leave it for now and wait for other app turns, that's also fine!

ARRIVAL
The first log for the 2nd round will be posted on JUNE 17TH. Please vote on what time you want it to be posted. We'll go with player majority! (As a note, this will be done for all rounds).

I'm Akino, and I'm bringing Yui Kanzaki from Kamen Rider Ryuki! I did some plotting over at the test drive, but I really don't have a whole lot.

Canon info:
-Let's not talk about her parents. They were awful.
-Lived with her aunt at a teashop for 13 years. Her older brother, Shiro, was sent overseas to live with relatives in America. She missed him
-Looks up to Shiro a lot but he started a battle royal among a bunch of strangers in order to save her life. This makes for awkward family reunions.
-Roommates are two of said strangers who have to kill each other to either save her or grant their own wish. They are idiots and jerks named Shinji and Ren. She loves them like family when they don't drive her nuts.
-Oh, and she's dead. Living as a ghost in a parallel world that would otherwise be full of monsters she created as a child.

AU info:
-Art student?
-Likes journalism (plans to investigate Kiriya's shady pawn shop), maybe school newspaper?
-Visits Jaune's cafe from time to time?
-I really don't have much. Let's just not give her terrible parents. Would like for her to have some younger siblings too in her AU family.
-Not straight? Canon Yui shows no patience for suggestions of dating her idiot/jerk roommates, but she's very kind to Ren's girlfriend and brings her flowers--maybe she'd be more willing to date cute girls or paint them?
-Probably still prefers tea to coffee
-I don't even have a name for her. Help.

So some AU name help:

I think a lot of people for names go with jokes or homages to things in a character's canon. Like Jaune here, his AU name is a joke about how his name sounds like "John" and then I took the name of his Voice Actor and made it his last name.

A few people have played around with the name meanings or puns. I think some people have just changed a letter or two or, in some cases, used a "dub" name (though I know that won't really work for Kamen Rider).

Hmm....maybe I could go with Mira as a first name? It sounds like "mirror," and mirrors are a big thing in Ryuki.

Oooh I like that!
kokuyoyo: (Yeah that doesn't involve enough)

[personal profile] kokuyoyo 2017-06-14 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
Funnily enough, "Ciro" here is very picky with tea and longing for the day he's old enough to not have people fussing over his health so that he can drink coffee

FIGHT

ok no but does she like cute mugs

[personal profile] mirrors_wish 2017-06-16 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
Yes she does! Also she could try bribing with a cup of coffee if she needs a favor?

/slides over

The Soma player has a cafe/bakery kind of thing, met up there once and bonded/argued over tea/coffee, easily ignored nerd who picks up on all sorts of things just because people somehow ignore his lanky ass self and thus can be bribed for all sorts of tidbits or to do a thing?

That could work! Sorry it took so long to respond--I caught a terrible cold, so I'm working off what lucidity I have.

We have to have them run into each other eventually because Riders. How old is she?
mirrors_wish: (Default)

[personal profile] mirrors_wish 2017-06-16 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
Yes. And I'm going with canon (+ 1 day because she didn't get to celebrate her birthday, poor thing) and make her 20.

They're the same age then! (I. Guesstimated with Makoto's age as compared to Takeru's, it's really not clear.)

[personal profile] mirrors_wish 2017-06-17 02:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Is Makoto in any classes or anything where he might run into her?
transient_specter: (Default)

[personal profile] transient_specter 2017-06-18 03:42 am (UTC)(link)
Possibly! He's mostly unfocused in terms of classes right now, just doing the basic foundation courses for the moment.

[personal profile] mirrors_wish 2017-06-18 09:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Yui probably has to do all of those too, so she'd probably share a couple of classes with him.

If she's an art student, Yusuke will be too! Maybe they can have classes together c:

[personal profile] foxphantom 2017-06-18 12:50 am (UTC)(link)
Perfect! Do you have an idea of what kind of classes she'd take?
mirrors_wish: (Smile)

[personal profile] mirrors_wish 2017-06-18 09:04 pm (UTC)(link)
So far, all I know are some art classes and journalism. I figure whatever core requirements can be handwaved.

[personal profile] foxphantom 2017-06-19 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
Sounds good c: Yusuke would probably take any art class he possibly could, so they could be in any of them together!

Sounds like fun!
