CATCHUP MEME

[sunmedallion]

HEY GANG

A good few people have had stuff going on recently that has left them feeling out of the loop or not sure what’s going on – so we thought it would be a good idea to have a meme for clarifying what has been going on with our characters. Hopefully this will be a good way to get a look at what’s been going on with the rest of the game as well as to get a better handle on what your own characters have been doing by writing it up.

If you’re just plain lost, feel free to just say you’re not sure what your character’s been doing and invite other people to offer suggestions (involving their own characters or otherwise). You’re also encouraged to reply to other people’s characters with more general plot or CR suggestions.

TO PARTICIPATE, fill out the following for each of your characters:

<b>CHARACTER NAME/ALIAS IF APPLICABLE</b> BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF CHARACTER <b>LAST SEEN:</b> The last thing you threaded them doing. <b>SIGNIFICANT PAST ACCOMPLISHMENTS:</b> (“significant”) (“accomplishments”) Most notable things your character has done in the game in the past. Can be as specific or vague as you like. <b>WHAT THEY’VE BEEN DOING LATELY:</b> Give a brief rundown of what your character’s been up to. Can be anything from stuff you’ve threaded to stuff you’re only just making up now to fill in the gaps. <b>IC GOALS:</b> Your character’s current goals, if they have any. <b>OOC GOALS & IDEAS:</b> Things you’d like to achieve with this character in the future – whether it’s intense long term character arc type stuff or just something you think it’d be cool or funny to have them do, something you think they could be useful for, etc. <b>ANYTHING ELSE:</b> anything else you think would be good to mention!

And then reply to other people as necessary!

LYRA BELACQUA

[alethiometry]

LYRA BELACQUA/SILVERTONGUE
itinerant fortune-telling urchin
LAST SEEN: defending the swansong rescue effort
SIGNIFICANT PAST ACCOMPLISHMENTS: unseating a malevolent authoritarian regime in another dimension and restoring balance to the multiverse, leading a small group of plucky teens to the warehouse where swansong was
WHAT THEY’VE BEEN DOING LATELY: telling fortunes on various boardwalks, mostly
IC GOALS: to help superheroes fight crime and stop whatever's interfering with the dust!!
OOC GOALS & IDEAS: idk it would be neat if she could learn more magic and become a true trenchcoat brigade?? she needs more firends and cr generally, she's very friendly!! I kind of want her to have a relationship with the autobots like she does with the armored polar bears in canon but idk where to start lmao
ANYTHING ELSE: she misses will :c

ROTORSTORM

[wreckerscombine]

ROWAN MARINNA/ROTORSTORM
Former Air Force helicopter pilot, new-time CONDOR agent, full-time braggart.
LAST SEEN: Talking with Metabee on The Watch.
SIGNIFICANT PAST ACCOMPLISHMENTS: She was a praised aerial strategist and rose to a fairly high rank in the air force. She was also responsible for saving many lives throughout her time there.
WHAT THEY’VE BEEN DOING LATELY: Getting used to her new job at CONDOR and meeting new people. Her latest assignment was to be appointed as a sort of “guardian” for the Autobot Arcee, and oversee her behavior.
IC GOALS: Mostly just getting recognition for her piloting skills. She's hoping to get more missions where she can put them to use.
OOC GOALS & IDEAS: Honestly, all of her egomania is a front. She’s actually pretty doubtful of herself as a person and a pilot, even if she’s never had a major failure throughout her career. I think at some point, she might overwhelm herself from taking on too many tasks from CONDOR at once.
ANYTHING ELSE: She acts friendly enough to most people, but it’d take a lot for her to actually open up to anyone. One of the easiest ways to get her to drop the “class clown” sort of attitude would be to ask her about her time in the Air Force, but she’s not likely to bring up anything significant from it on her own.

DRIFT

[positiveenergy]

DRIFT
As said by Swerve in MTMTE, “The archetypal Syk-addict turned Decepticon-psychopath turned Autobot-ninja turned flaky spiritualist.”
LAST SEEN: Meeting the Trailblazers!
SIGNIFICANT PAST ACCOMPLISHMENTS: I mean, I guess he got the Phase Shifter, but he immediately hid it under his mattress for about a month, so…yeah.
WHAT THEY’VE BEEN DOING LATELY: He’s actually started realizing how gay he is for Rodimus. He’s also been trying to reconcile with Arcee and get more acquainted with CONDOR and their allies.
IC GOALS: To try and earn the trust of the other Autobots I guess? Good job on that so far, pal.
OOC GOALS & IDEAS: He will soon be running a romance blog and posting fanfiction on the web. Maybe his alias will become an infamous internet celebrity.
ANYTHING ELSE: I’d like to try writing some more fight threads with him! Preferably he wouldn’t be getting his ass handed to him in all of them, but we’ll see.

Newton Geiszler

[kaijugrrroupie]

DOCTOR NEWTON GEISZLER
Head Xenobiologist at CONDOR, all round giant monster movie fanboy and manic arrogant shit with the maturity of a five year old.
LAST SEEN: Trying to juggle far too many jobs at once.
SIGNIFICANT PAST ACCOMPLISHMENTS: TOO MANY TO LIST. 6 pHD's because he collects them like pokemon. Lead scientist authority on Alternians and Skrulls. Youngest person to ever get accepted into MIT and subsequently teach there.
WHAT THEY’VE BEEN DOING LATELY: He's been working himself to the bone trying to catch up with academia, keep his clinic running, keep a job at Mintaka Industries going, getting back into the swing of things at CONDOR and also becoming babysitter to a hoard of Autobots and becoming roommates with Myaxx.
IC GOALS: NOT DIE. Catch-up on everything he's missed and maybe do less things. Get a pet lizard and a new tattoo possibly of alien organs. Get back to dissecting because that's his favourite part of the job--discovering how things work, and he can't exactly cut up an alien right now. Not die. Meet more cool aliens.
OOC GOALS & IDEAS: Newt's about to burn out so someone is gonna need to make sure he doesn't do that again. He needs more friends!!
ANYTHING ELSE: if you give him half a chance he will talk about gore with you like he's talking about flowers. Also loves manga and comic books because he's a thirty something year old NERD.

Tommy Shepherd

[crotcharrow]

TOMMY SHEPHERD
Speedster street rat who has been adopted by Alpha Force because it turns out he's the magical son of one of their members. Cocky and handsome, bad with feelings.
LAST SEEN: Struggling to talk about feelings with Maxxie, and trying not to get kicked out of his apartment in the Alpha Tower.
SIGNIFICANT PAST ACCOMPLISHMENTS: BLOWING UP HIS SCHOOL BY MISTAKE... TORTURED BY TRIDENT... fighting crime???
WHAT THEY’VE BEEN DOING LATELY: He's been sulking a lot lately, spending a lot of time in the Alpha Tower because things are weird with his friend with benefits???? and he doesnt know how to fix it. Also because his best friend has moved back to NYC and he misses her.
IC GOALS: To get out of the house and actually do something with his life GOD.
OOC GOALS & IDEAS: I need to get him out and about more! He doesn't want to join the Trailblazers, but I think being on a team would help structure him a little more. He likes beating things up, and has a lot of anger issues that a punching bag could really help iron out. FRIENDS????
ANYTHING ELSE: dont invite him out to dinner, he will eat you out of house and home.

Nessa Llewellyn

[purrsuit]

NESSA "WILDCAT" LLEWELLYN
One of the oldest members of Trailblazers, having been there for near a year and a half. Cute shapeshifter with a heart for shipping, fanfiction and romance films, and also ripping out the throats of small animals and eating them.
LAST SEEN: Getting kidnapped by Signless. Then going to Seaworld.
SIGNIFICANT PAST ACCOMPLISHMENTS: Not turning into a monster and eating all her teammates! Controlling her powers! Rescue missions! Having the most Kudos on one of her RPF fanfictions for Alpha Force members.
WHAT THEY’VE BEEN DOING LATELY: Being kidnapped shook her. So she's been training a lot, and spending a lot of time in the Trailblazer gym. Her fanfictions are being neglected, and she hasn't watched a romance flick in ages. She hunts at night, and you might bump into her chowing down on a few rabbits she caught.
IC GOALS: To fully control the 'beast within~~' when her emotions are running high. Get back into drawing and fanfiction. TELL SOMEONE HOW SHE FEELS...
OOC GOALS & IDEAS: I'd like to do more with her, as she's taking a major backseat on my roster. I'd love to get her back into shipping and more online persona, but she's a little more feral right now with all the training. Maybe someone can remind her?
ANYTHING ELSE: I wanna up her being really cute and really horrific at the same time... WHO WANTS A HOMEMADE ANIMAL PELT BLANKET?
