A LITTLE ABOUT THEM - Sansa is very much the quintessential storybook lady: quiet, kind, polite, courteous to a fault, skilled at sewing, singing, dancing, and other lady's arts. Beneath this is a girl who has suffered an absurd amount of pain for someone only thirteen-years-old. She comes from a happy childhood home but in the past year has been thrown into physically and emotionally abusive circumstances, forced to survive the lion's den of the royal court with no weapons but her smile and ability to please. She's slow to trust but despite that still tries to believe the world holds some goodness in it yet.
The world she comes from is very medieval, and Sansa has experienced firsthand some of it's brutality. Her view of the world is quite different from many other characters who come from more modern times: the gender order is a very real thing she's been raised in, and in that order she is nothing but a pretty caged songbird who sings for the pleasure of men. Once she believed in tales of chivalry and grand deeds, true knights and gentle ladies, but Sansa knows now that the world is a very cold, cruel place. And yet she manages to hold on to a moral center instilled in her by her father.
She goes by a false name in Einmal because at her canon point she's fleeing for her life, wanted in connection with the death of the king.
Sansa's one unnatural ability is skinchanging: the ability to enter the mind and body of an animal, to live in their skin. At the moment she can only warg into her wolf, Lady, and only in her dreams; Sansa herself doesn't even realize what's happening to her.
WHAT ARE THEY UP TO? - Slooooooowly building up a measure of confidence as she makes allies. Sansa spends her time in the castle reading, sewing, and going for walks. She's only recently just wandered outside the castle for the first time…after being magically abducted to the forest for three days, and only to be attacked by a wolf.
WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THEM? - Making more allies, helping Giles in the library -- I'd like for her to try to help with the Thorns in her own small way by learning the tales Einmal is based on, which are different from the ones Sansa knows. The girl needs convincing to start carrying a knife for her own protection, but seriously good luck with that, her entire body revolts at the idea of hurting another person. And at some point Loki will kidnap her, but I don't know when that's going to go down.
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? - I honestly have……no idea. I really am open to just about anything, just please don't expect Sansa to trust your character automatically. The girl is very deeply wounded, and trust is not a thing that happens so easily for her.
ANY IDEAS FOR THE GAME? - Ooooh, how about some twisted things like The Robber Bridegroom, or or! East of the Sun, West of the Moon?
OTHER - Has a grey direwolf named Lady (see icon) who is spiritually and mystically Sansa's "other half"; Sansa is unaware of this bond. Lady's personality is very similar to Sansa's: gentle, skittish, quick to submit but difficult to truly cow, all filtered through the nature of a wolf.

A LITTLE ABOUT THEM - Helios is pretty a very open-minded, curious, and talkative individual. He's not one to judge people based off appearances and he's rather open towards all sorts of beings whether they be human or otherwise. Helios is always a rather strong magician in his world. He often likes to create and make new spells in his spare time. He's a bookworm too, and prone to being absentminded despite all this. He's got a sweet tooth the size of Mount Olympus and he's also rather broken. Having been abused by his elder brother in the past he's not comfortable with contact (though thanks to Luceti he's gotten a lot better with this).
He's basically really easy to talk to and will try his hardest to help people when the time calls for it. He's very protective of his friends, since he's lacked them in the past.
WHAT ARE THEY UP TO? - Right now? Not much. I figure he might go exploring with Ginia and possibly on his own. Maybe to the mountains to run into some dragons or back into the two-faced forest at some point. He's basically just hanging around the town, library, doing magic here or there to earn a decent living.
WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THEM? - No plans as of yet. I think I'd like for him to have the part of his soul tainted by Apep to rear its ugly head at some point. I can probably have his spell connected to his ring, it's a silencing spell he made in Luceti, go haywire at some point. Drown the entire town of Schwanheim in silence for a day or so.
I kinda also want him to try and help train people with magical abilities who don't normally have them and where given them merely due to their role gained in-game. Maybe start up a little group for defense of the town and other towns nearby.
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? - (Friends. New CR. Anything and everything. I'm open to whatever! Angst, fluff, happy times!
ANY IDEAS FOR THE GAME? - Nothing at the moment. Possibly meeting some other people from the other kingdoms? Or having a quest that allows people to go there, maybe for help/information
OTHER - Nada!

A LITTLE ABOUT THEM - The little nerd who could~ Bakura's a game loving nerd coming from the land where card games crowed a king who was the series punching bag for bad luck. Soul shattered, arm stabbed, body possessed by a tomb robber with a 3,000 year old grudge, poor Bakura had one of the worst times in Yuugiou land. This version of him spent near 3 years in off brand NYC full of super heroes [C&C] where he made best friends with not quite redeemed bad guys, questionable good guys, fellow martyrs and lots of robots.
He's kinda full of abandonment issues, lives for escapism, is painfully naive at times and just wants to be friends with everybody. Because that's really all he wants out of life, friends that won't leave him.
He got the powers of his White Mage Monster World avatar in C&C and continues to have those powers in Einmal, though he really... doesn't quiiite know how they work. Since every time he got someone to try and teach him magic, they left. [Did I mention he has abandonment issues? Because he does. For good reason]
WHAT ARE THEY UP TO? - Currently he's trying to come to terms with that whole memory loss and regain thing since a lot of his lost memories got shaken up in the shared dream. He's yet again attempting to learn how to fight [this time from a fellow Ryo!] and feeling a bit out of place and wondering what he should do. He also heals NPCs for small favors when he's not running from fangirls.
WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THEM? - ahaha, oh man I suck at plans for characters. Booooy do I suck at plans. I have no idea!
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? - Someone to actually get past Bakura's smiling outer shell. He's very practiced at keeping people at arms length and has managed to be just passing friends with almost everyone he's met. He's really pretty lost and lonely but won't let on about it because he doesn't want people to think poorly of him. A mentor figure would be lovely as well

A LITTLE ABOUT THEM - Oh Jesus, where do I even start.
Loki is Marvel mythology, based on the Norse god of mischief, who often did weird things for no particular reason and everyone hated. This is a trait he holds in common with his mythology-self. He's deeply emotionally troubled, has terrible father issues, rejection issues, and self-esteem issues, and he channels them into chaotic and destructive behavior and then blames it on everyone else.
He's a sorcerer (a wizard, in Einmal), and he's right off of a fall that was pretty much a suicide attempt. His relationships with any given person are going to always be complicated, and if he acts like an ass, that's basically just default form. He can be courtly and sweet, too, and he's very manipulative, and a liar, and pretty much an asshat.
WHAT ARE THEY UP TO? - Right now, he's a wolf. He changed into the Big Bad Wolf because he's been shapeshifting too much, and thus fucked some bitches up. Now, he knows he should want to become normal-form again, but he can't figure out how to transform. He's got a mental block.
WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THEM? - Short-term: get someone to help him transform back to being human, or it'll just gradually happen over the next few days if not.
Long-term: I'd like him to do some more villainy. He wants to spur on the heroes to fight more and fulfill legends, because maybe that will help the forces of order and stop chaos. Also he wants to mess with his brother.
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? - I don't like planning too much; I pretty much roll with whatever happens. If you have ideas that might be fun to play out with them, we can kinda steer that way.
ANY IDEAS FOR THE GAME? - Nothing in particular. Just villainy!
OTHER - I'm fairly slow. On everything. I apologize in advance.
CONTACT - AIM at fishicopter. I do not have a Plurk anymore, and I would prefer plotting to be done over PMs or in OOC comm posts, if it's at all possible for you guys. You can definitely feel free to ping me on AIM to chat. I'm pretty much online, if I'm awake, because work doesn't regulate that sort of thing.

A LITTLE ABOUT THEM - Ginia is a freelancer in her world and has spent the last ten years of her life putting people in prison, committing acts of corporate espionage (and sometimes regular espionage), and carrying out the occasional hit. She's the kind of person who isn't afraid to be a bad guy if it means helping out good people. Self-sacrificing, self-loathing, very much the kind of person that smiles all the time and pretends to be fine. All that said, she's fairly friendly and polite to people. Has a definitely soft spot for kids.
Also has some history from
As for Alice, she's an artificial personality created after a government program decided to do studies with removing memories, and serves as a sort of guard for Ginia. When Ginia is under a lot of stress or danger, Alice tends to kick in to protect her.
WHAT ARE THEY UP TO? - Ginia is still pretty new to Einmal, only on her second day now. She's run into Giles and Helios again so she's hanging around them. Also working on improving her stealth abilities by stalking people out in the streets.
WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THEM? - Finding out more information, making allies. There's tentative plans for her, Helios, and Giles to go explore the mountains or the thorns and likely get into all sorts of trouble. Will probably have her affected by Benu or something else and go on a stealing spree at some point.
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? - I'm really open to just about anything (though nothing romantic as she's already with Giles). More allies and friends, definitely, though Ginia is not the kind of person to reveal much about herself. People to train with or people to learn skills from are always cool. Alternately, if anyone wants to learn how to fight (hand-to-hand or knife fighting), she's willing to teach someone.
ANY IDEAS FOR THE GAME? - Meeting people from other kingdoms would be cool, maybe some kind of fight against some invading force or monster? An earthquake opening up some new area?
OTHER - Has a one-eyed dog named Odin that's usually around.

A LITTLE ABOUT THEM - The girl is Olinda, the unicorn is Sundrop. She'll answer to either. Olinda prefers to keep the two separate out of a fear of being hunted for her alicorn, something that happened twice. She's extremely bent on returning home because she'd been with her sister and the two of them were running from the hunt, so she's worried about her.
Olinda is stubborn, sometimes to a fault, and her world view can be narrow, but she is friendly and willing to help others. She's familiar with plants and oils, mixing tonics and salves, but she's definitely not an expert.
WHAT ARE THEY UP TO? -
Making >:T faces at the kingdomIIiiii don't know actually, she's probably gathering plants, doing extractions and jotting down species she's unfamiliar with, half to keep her busy because what do about thorns >:( and half in case they do come in handy later.You can find her around town, sometimes at the Monastery, sometimes in the edges of the Two-Faced Forest. She's like to be caught doing errands for the town folk, too.
WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THEM? - Get in trouble, have more people connect girl with unicorn, get to the point where she's at least semi-comfortable with not trying to hide it so she can
be a white mageheal people if needed.WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? - Hm hm hm, not sure! Olinda's got no desire to learn how to use a weapon, but the encounter with the roc has shown that it would be a good idea to be able to defend herself as a human... Maybe try to learn magic? idk if that's possible, but neither does she!
Maybe a mentor type figure, too. She's headstrong but actually lends herself well to the student role as long as the mentor has their Facepalm Technique mastered.
ANY IDEAS FOR THE GAME? - neigh
OTHER - ACTUALLY her unicorn icons are kind of inaccurate -- she looks more like a traditional unicorn (smaller than a horse, mane extends to her chest area, lion's tale, etc) than a horse, but dnw to draw it.

A LITTLE ABOUT THEM - Hawk is a line-facing grumpy pants with a soft spot for kids and a massive coffee addiction. Oh yeah, and he's the werewolf messiah, much to his annoyance. Back home he made stage swords, in the kingdom, he's the blacksmith, something he enjoys the hell out of, even if you'd never notice it to look at him. He's a metal and earth Mage, able to manipulate both, though he's far more attuned to metal as it's his main element.
It's far too easy to get on Hawk's bad side. Mess with his family and he will end you and feed your body to the Earth. To get on his good side, be good to Faolan and Snow, and/or show you have a brain.
WHAT ARE THEY UP TO? - Being a cranky butt, running his forge, being an ass, being agitated that Snow's blind now.
WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THEM? - Eeeh... No real plans. Hawk just... does his thing.
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? - Hawk needs to actually make a friend. THIS WILL BE HARD AS HELL but if anyone wants to accept the challenge...

A LITTLE ABOUT THEM - Snow is a depressed, burned out middle aged woman who'd been haunted by visions her entire life and feels like an utter failure. She's a touch crazy from a mix of her visions and her methods of trying to avoid them, mainly, drugs and alcohol. She doesn't have many likes or dislikes just due to how fried she's become. She realizes she must have liked something long ago, but she can't remember being that person any more. She just wants her son [Hawk] to be happy and not to be a failure any more.
WHAT ARE THEY UP TO? - Being blissfully blind to everything. Her prize from the magic peddler was a bracelet that cut off all vision, magical and physical. So she's just sorta sitting around, sober and almost happy. Still crazy, though.
WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THEM? - I need someone to be that horrible person who takes that bracelet away from her since she's just going to sit there like a lump until someone does. ^^;;;;
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? - If anyone wants to help her take some tiny steps towards sanity... or at least try and figure out how to decode her ramblings... Also, if anyone can help her deal with her visions without her blinder, that would be awesome.

A LITTLE ABOUT THEM - Faolan is a 10 year old werewolf from an original mostly modern setting with magic and magical creatures thrown in. He was tested on by scientists for a few months, but he's much better now. With Hawk for a daddy, he is quite carefree. He likes running, chasing things, and roughousing. He is a smart boy, but tends to talk like a much younger child. And he loves everyone!
WHAT ARE THEY UP TO? - He is currently being used as a peace offering from Loki to Sansa. Other than that, he's being adorable and making everyone love him.
WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THEM? - I don't really plan....
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? - Faolan thinks of people in terms of his "pack.". He would love some playmates, and could really use a teacher [Giles, you wanted to teach him first and second person pronoun use, right?]. He does want to get stronger and be able to protect the ones he loves, so help with that would also be appreciated.
ANY IDEAS FOR THE GAME? - I let Fran do most of that

A LITTLE ABOUT THEM - Ryo is a Kamen Rider! Kamen Rider Gills, in fact. But he's not exactly a happy superhero; as far as his world is concerned, he got the short end of the powers stick. Long story short, the powers were uncontrollable and killing him at first, and although he's got the killing him thing under control, he's still somewhat uncontrollable and unpredictable when he transforms. He's coming off the end of his canon, after which the Unknown, the monsters of his world, have been defeated.
He's also got abandonment issues out the wazoo; many of the people he was close to left him upon finding out he had a transformational problem. Those who didn't died at the hand of the Unknown and the Overlord of Darkness. He also has a bit of angst over turning into a monster, although he has for the most part made his peace with that. He'll still try to distance himself from people because of it if he thinks they're getting too close. He can be kind of grumpy, and if you annoy him badly enough (and are another dude), he will try to punch you in the face.
WHAT ARE THEY UP TO? - Ryo is a total noob in this town. He's just trying to figure out what's going on.
WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THEM? - At the moment, aside from recovering from the party and dreams, he's giving Bakura lessons on how to punch someone and wondering just how on Earth someone could fail at punching that hard.
I want to have him go out monster-hunting at some point in time. It might also be amusing if he got mistaken for a monster, too! (I was thinking of an accidental orb post with Gills going all nuts on something...)
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? -
ALL THE CRAntagonistic CR might be fun with him, actually. CR that forces him out of his shell is also a good thing!ANY IDEAS FOR THE GAME? - I can't think of anything at the moment! Just trying to get settled in~

A LITTLE ABOUT THEM -
JW is a cranky, fish-out-of-water hippie that has been thrown even FURTHER out of the pond by winding up here in fantasy land. He's been given wizard's powers and is slowly learning how to use them.
Before finding The Book, James did odd jobs and ran creepy crawlies out of his little backwoods hometown of Hawksaw with his trusty 22 and undead companion, Deuteronomy.
WHAT ARE THEY UP TO? -
JW is currently focusing on learning how to use his magic for selfish reasons. He's only just started to consider the usefulness of allies in this world (he's ronrey bawww)
WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THEM? -
I have plans for JW to eventually become the go-to wizard when somebody needs a weird potion or spell. I think it would be fun for him to issue fetch-quests that could range anywhere from "Bring me the eyes of a newborn manticore!" to "I want a sandwich. Impress me."
Beyond that, I am wide open to anything!
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? -
I just want to make friends and have fun RPing with you fine folks! 8I All CR is welcome!
ANY IDEAS FOR THE GAME? - JW gets pissed off at something the townspeople did and dumps a potion in the town well that does something weird and hilarious. Maybe chickens.
OTHER - I LOVE YOU.

A LITTLE ABOUT THEM - Oh, boy, complicated. Um. Well, Giles is not terribly good with people - I mean, you all have noticed the stutter. He's at his best if he's providing useful information or explaining a situation - basically, if he's in his intellectual comfort zone. He's kind of stuffy and formal and especially reserved, but, around certain types of people or his friends, he softens up a lot and tries to be there for them however he can, whether that's through providing advice or backup in a fight. Basically, Giles is a mentor type figure with a very dark past who keeps himself on a tight leash, who's bad at interacting with people but has accepted that it's unavoidable in a situation like this where they all have to work together to escape. He's also kind of generally morose about the fact that he's a ghost.
WHAT ARE THEY UP TO? - Mentally freaking the fuck out over the dream event, because everything from a perfect life to becoming the servant of the Avatar of Chaos hit him then, and even Giles can only take so many emotional hits. Also, mentally planning an expedition into the mountains to see some dragons, because he knows Helios wants to. Really kind of generally keeping an eye on people besides that...even if you can't see him when he does drop by.
WHAT ARE YOUR PLANS FOR THEM? - Well, there's the aforesaid expedition to the dragons. Also, I need a way to get him out as far as the thorns - the actual dangerous thorns, not the Two Faced Forest thorns. Eventually, Giles is possibly going to be taken over by the dark god that lives in Helios' soul, and then he'll probably cause a whole lot of difficulty for Schwanheim in general. And, honestly, he still needs some help figuring out his ghost powers - guy still doesn't know that he can read books psychically.
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR? - People he can train! Giles might not have a body of his own, at the moment, but he knows a lot about fighting and defending onesself, and could probably still give some good advice on that front, especially if you give him permission to possess you >_> . Skips right over the establishing of the muscle memory, that. But, not just in fighting - in learning fairy tales, or different languages (he speaks five) or a lot of stuff. Basically, I'm looking for characters that might not mind being taken under his wing.
People who could do him harm or otherwise affect him despite his ghostly state would be cool, too. He really only has negative CR with Loki at this point. I'd like some more! Because he is getting overconfident, as a ghost, and that needs to stop.
ANY IDEAS FOR THE GAME? - DRAGONS. Dragon attack. They're good for building CR and teamwork. Trust me. I was just involved with one in a tabletop game. Also, maybe some kind of doppelganger takes over the kingdom and replaces the king and starts giving the heroes stupid, dangerous, suicidal, or otherwise dangerous missions for the good of the kingdom. We can see who catches on first.
OTHER - This seems to be a traditional way to end, so...

Also: Would Giles want to be a mentor figure for Bakura? They can be nerdy together :D And I forget, which languages does he speak again? Since if he doesn't know Japanese, Bakura can swap him one for one. :)
