ENABLE ME MEME


This meme is for both existing and potential players to Systemwide to have some friendly banter about the characters they are thinking about apping. Allow us not only to yell forcefully at you to do the thing, but maybe gain some ideas about how to do the thing!

STEP ONE: Fill out the form below and comment with it.
STEP TWO: Shove the fact you've done this in people's faces.
STEP THREE: Comment around and enable others! Alternatively, this is step one, if you already have and know everything.
STEP FOUR: If you're hard enough, you should reserve or better yet, app.

And now, the form:

<b>Your Name:</b> So we can shout it at you needfully. <b>Your Potential Character:</b> Oh my god I love him/her/them/it! <b>Your Potential Character's Canon:</b> Remember that time the guy did that thing it was crazy. <b>Concept ideas:</b> It's also okay to say you have none of these, but it might help us help you flesh out or narrow down some notions about apping your character into the game. For example, are they entirely new, just unplugged? Or have they been unplugged for five years, and if so, what have they been doing for all this time? Broad strokes ("I want to punch things a lot!") or specifics ("I want my character to own a clinic and be married with four children") are both fine. <b>Concept concerns:</b> Do you have any concerns about apping this character into this setting? (How can we help assuage them?)

If you're entirely new and unsure where to start, the below links may be helpful!

Premise: Our pitch!

The Matrix: What it is, how it works, how it's changed from canon.

Reality: Information on physical setting!

Zion Defence Grid: Some info on the ZDG, the main military organisation that enables many Matrix missions.

Your Name: Samm

Your Potential Character: Harry Hart / Galahad
Your Potential Character's Canon: Kingsman: The Secret Service

Concept ideas: Ideally, he would have some experience and have been unplugged some time ago. I would be tempted to take it from the prologue of the movie when his colleague/Eggsy's father dies, and live out the next decade and a half in Zion. I would then have him dramatically canon update towards during the movie's current timeline (does a tap dance around spoilers). Functionally, he is an operative through and through, I think, and not necessarily a captain, but could still take senior roles.
Concept concerns: If I were to app him, it would probably not be soon. I might consider letting someone go first, and I'd for sure have to test drive him to see if I can maintain him in more day to day RP, but I can see easy ways to RP him in plot.

Wolfgang Bogdanow | Sense8

Your Name: coffee
Your Potential Character: Wolfgang Bogdanow
Your Potential Character's Canon: Sense8

Concept ideas: Ideally, I'd like him to be unplugged pretty recently, not enough to have really settled in, but enough that he's not confused and wobbly anymore. Basically just past the fresh newbie introductory stage. I don't see him captaining or leading or anything, but Wolfie's a team tank, and I'd like to see him carry on with that - need someone to beat a guy up for you or have your back with a rocket launcher, Wolfgang's your man!

I also love building CR and doing day-to-day stuff and wanna just interact him with anyone.

Concept concerns: ....are there parties and swimming pools???

Your Name: Amber

OKAY HELP ME CHOOSE. I have two characters and I'm tentative about both but I can also only app one if any.

Your Potential Character: Hannibal Lecter
Your Potential Character's Canon: Hannibal.

Concept ideas: Hannibal will have been extracted for a while, and have spent the time rebuilding his strength and finances, primarily through casual smuggling. He will then open up a psychiatric practice in Zion. My test drive starter had more detail on that vision.
Concept concerns: I already play Anders so two medically-minded people in a small game might be to overlapping in plot roles, also I've never managed to maintain a villain in a game before and I'm worried it will take more work than I should really commit to.


Your Potential Character: Napoleon Solo
Your Potential Character's Canon: Man from UNCLE (2015).

Concept ideas: Also unplugged for a while. Irkalian pirate and all 'round asshole. Does dirty work for the ZDG, is possibly undercover? Gives no shits about saving people. Massive gambling debt that he's maybe working off?
Concept concerns: I literally just dropped a spy, pretty sure I have to wait two weeks before he's appable.

this is all libby's fault jsyk

Your Name: Will
Your Potential Character: " ", she's too cool for names but Jane Smith will do the trick.
Your Potential Character's Canon: Highlander OC

Concept ideas: I think I want her to be new... but I want her to get involved into things too idk. Fighty things most likely, but also long senseless rants about philosophy and other assorted random topics. She's old as balls so she has a lot of knowledge about a lot of stuff.
Concept concerns: I'm still sloooowly working on her voice so everything is shaky and she's kind of a detached jerk sometimes, not to mention someone who probably come to question everything and everyone.
