OOC INTRO

We've gotten a nice first round for the start of the game! There's a form below for you all to introduce yourselves, or get reacquainted after the interest check, and start your plotting in game! Quests will be releasing in about a week along with the first event that will center largely around these quests. Afterwards, we plan on having a temperature check of sorts where you can all express thoughts or concerns on the pacing, handling, or anything else. Things aren't fully set in stone, and we can make adjustments moving forward!

Remember to follow the plurk (baymods) for more minor updates! As you jump into the intro, here are some important things to note:

⟡ ICly, there was a "town meeting" held today where the guild leaders announced that newcomers would be invited to guilds. It has been decided that characters should join a guild to help give back to the city that will, in turn, help them find a way home. Dr. Denne mentions that he's been assigned to make this his top priority for the time being.

⟡ Characters may have been ICly told about this decision before the meeting, depending on their intro blurb.

⟡ This meeting is when characters receive their grumpearls, meaning they have been taught how to use the network! You are free to post open logs or network posts now that the game is officially open. Remember, the network is a psychic connection, so it is quite possible to transmit thoughts unintentionally, have issues, etc.

⟡ The guild leaders are very busy getting everything in order with these decisions, but they will be available for threading with in some limited capacity on the event post. Until then, if there's an urgent question your character would seek them out for, or maybe a message they'd like to send (due to their intro prompts or otherwise), there will be a header below for you to do so.

⟡ Many "newcomers" have vanished. Those faces you met on the TDM are gone just as quickly as they arrived. Some have trouble remembering them. Maybe even you can only imagine a fuzzy outline of someone, no recognition of the conversations you might have had, or maybe certain highlights are more clear. Dr. Denne mentions that this is a known phenomenon, that some of them can recall them, but not others. They say they'll be keeping a record of the Pokemon here now so that they won't be lost, and will try to find out what happened.

PLAYER INFO
PLAYER: Kururu
ABOUT: hiii :3c i'm a disabled enby (she/her or they/them) from australia :> i have a lot of fandoms i'm into, and am currently hyperfixated on dragon age. and i'm also a final fantasy dope.

I'm also an artist! and a dm!
CONTACT: plurk @ shslivalice, or discord @ dodola

CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: Courier Six/Perrin Vale-Rivers-Cole
CANON: Fallout
POKEMON: Dragonite. Have some art.
GUILD: Lum!
INFO/PERMISSIONS: Here. I'll be fixing the picture soon...

ABOUT:

You know, if you asked me last year if I'd be playing a character from Fallout, I'd say no. But then Courier Six - Perrin - surfaced again. He's a complete dope of a guy - but also a guy heavily guided by the world he comes from. He's a 38-year-old trans man who will sometimes joke he's died twice. He got shot in the head, left for dead, but was shown kindness and nursed back to health.

And then took over the Mojave for anarchy. You know. Just Mailman Things. He also carries a lot of guilt, but has this aura of just being a nice dude! Because he wants to be good. He so fucking wants to be good. Please let him be good. He won't accidentally nuke this town. He promises.

PLANS:

Perrin wishes, first of all, to keep his own records of who's here. Those who didn't disappear like dreams, that is. Perhaps it's the fact he has a brain injury. Or perhaps it's because he got assigned into Lum. But he wants to begin by making a dictionary or listing of those here, and what worlds they might come from. I'll do an IC post for this, sometime, and also have a post in my journal for handwaving it.

For if people can just vanish like dreams, like on the TDM, then who will remember them? Who are they, if they forget their history? Yes he is very influenced by his foil Ulysses tyvm.

Also it makes for a funny CR gathering thing since Perrin is an idiot and doesn't realise the multiverse exists yet.

Other then that, however, Perrin plans on figuring out his place in the Lum Berries, and figuring out how to survive when the world is not post-post Apocolyptic. I also hope for him to discover more about what it means to be a person. And have more of a gender awakening that he doesn't need to be just a guy.

SEEKING/OFFERING:

Please somebody teach Perrin there's multiple universes before he tells everybody that the world is going to end in 2077. Please. But also, Perrin is the sort of guy who's gonna set up and seem he's got it all put together! He's a dragon! He's big, he's powerful, he's got hands! So if you need a seeming dope friend who knows a lot, then he's your guy.

Also somebody learn his name is Perrin and not. Courier Six. Because he's using the title to try and distance himself from what he thinks, sometimes, is just a weird trip or something he fucked with in Big MT. I'd also love to do stuff with the nightmare prompts, but I don't know if Perrin will speak about that sort of stuff! He's secretive!

I'll be getting back to tags on the TDM (got exhausted from Cancon/TTRPG convention), but will love to begin new stuff as well.

ANYTHING ELSE: As a note for people who actually know Fallout: I have not watched the TV show and thus will not be using any canon from it, S1 or S2. (It seems S2 is going to be having NV stuff.) even if it has my blorbos.

i'm so excited to be in a game with multiple friends and multiple friends-to-be tbh,,,

ALSO. I have an Opt In/Out Out post for Perrin, about, uh. The more Intense Fallout stuff. It's a silly world but also canonly very sinophobic and also has some fucked up attitudes. He's not gonna be transphobic or homophobic, though. (He does tend to be like 'oh i didn't know i could be a guy,')

[seacub]

'The world will end in 2077', Emporio opening his mouth like U Sure

End of the world gang...

[shotinhead]

Hey maybe the calendar changed. He can't be sure. Florida is weird! Actually Florida has never been covered in a Fallout game, so. All we know is that it still exists.

End of the world American gang!

[seacub]

God can you imagine
Going to florida in fallout


And nothing is different

THATS ONLY THEM FOR MURICANS IN ANY CASE ring spirit is egyptian

He thinks

[Cubone Squint]

[shotinhead]

i mean the mentions are in fallout 76 which is the earliest in the timeline as well so who knows it might be fucked now

but it'd be so funny

if it's exactly the same

But yes! Perrin also sounds British but no, he is from the Mojave. Or from Nebraska, if you unlock his friendship events.

[seacub]

It would be sooooo funnyyyyyy

and by Perrin's powers combined, Emporio will never be able to know if 2077 Mojave folk just sound british or not,

[shotinhead]

Correction: 2281 Mojave folk! :p Vegas is just a weird place. It's fine. Really. And British apparently now. (And if I ever get canonmates them just being like no??? that dude's just like that????)

[seacub]

I KNOW WHAT I MEANT WHEEZE...

(lmao right tho...)

[bladeofnymeia]

reaches out

give me the good friend

[shotinhead]

places him in your hands

[bladeofnymeia]

holds him up to the light

friend accquired

[firealone]

Fellow Dragon Age fannn!! But also hello, I really liked our TDM thread and I'm stoked to see a F:NV character around. And I really like your art!

[shotinhead]

OKAY SO HERE'S THE FUNNY THING

I GOT BACK INTO DRAGON AGE BECAUSE I WAS LIKE 'you know, i feel like pmd-ing these characters, since i realised that my fallout 2 protag is very hawke-like and also i chose gideon emery as fenris as my fancast for perrin back in 2018'

and now i'm just back in da hell and might be considering merrill as a second if i have the energy, as opposite dope energy from Courier Six :> But yes! I loved our TDM thread so much. And thanks about the art!!! :3 lbr i will be doodling so much due to the game

[firealone]

Real, I might try doodling Firepaw as a Litten but I have so few spoons for drawing most of the time.

I've been considering my Hawke as a second character but I desperately need to replay DA2... once I've dug my way out of all the games I'm playing-

[shotinhead]

God. Mood. I have few spoons for writing, but I really gotta get back to it. Energy... lacking.

imagine canon reviewing couldn't be me >>

Funnily enough, I was considering bringing my Hawke as well as my first, but Perrin is a much easier muse to just slot into things, with a bit less dread. Follow who I love, and right now that's this dope, plus playing two custom protags is a bit much for me. So. |D

[not_damned_yet]

[handshake.jpeg] oh boy the characters who are very much not using real names because they do not want to be personally associated with things

[shotinhead]

exactly!!!! listen people called him courier back home he doesnt even know if his friends/non-canon boyfriends know his real name

[not_damned_yet]

[handshake_but_louder.jpeg] doc's QPR-polycule-bro-i-dont-even-know-what-their-relationship-is allies not knowing if he even has a real name or not and honestly i don't think any of them (or doc himself) cares

[colorsflyinghigh]

HELL YES lol can't wait for Perrin and Ren to talk some more I'm having SO much fun in the TDM with them

Big Bulky Dragon gains +1 kitty frem

[shotinhead]

yes!!! i am too! i love their friendship sm!!!!!!
