Summer Casting Call/CR Wishlist

[teacosyghost]

Hey folks! To help with all your plotting and enabling needs, welcome to the Summer Casting Call and CR Wishlist! The idea here is to give players somewhere to bat ideas around, get inspired, and advertise their schemey desires.


So what goes here? Any of the following:

• Enabling! Got a particular character/canon you’d love to play with? Show them some love here!

• Plot ideas, new or in progress: Are you setting up an infiltration thread and need a Computer Guy? Do you have just the seed of an idea and want to know if anyone else is interested?

• CR Wanted: Maybe you just need someone for your smart-mouthed villain to trade barbs with. Maybe your naive rookie needs a mentor. Maybe you’ve really got the itch to write a scene where your cocky genius falls on his face for once. Maybe someone can make it happen!

• Standing requests: If there’s a particular dynamic/thread type you’d love to get more of in general interactions, give everyone a heads-up what you’d love to be thrown your way!

Tips to remember:

Make sure to include a header with a bit of information about what you’re looking for, and don’t forget to link to the journals of your relevant characters! If possible, try to be specific about what you’re looking for, and give enough detail for other players to gauge if they’re interested. For example, when looking for CR, give a bit of information about your character and what sort of dynamic you want to go for.

Supervillain in the Market for a henchman/potential victims | Doc Ock

[multiversal_science]

Hey all, Liv's mun here!

Since I've introduced her to the Nexus I've been lowkey trying to set her up for some supervillain shenanigans and I'm about to the point where I have enough random little seeds planted where I can begin to justify stirring the pot in the multiverse a bit.

To that end I wanted to toss out an opportunity for some CR that could seriously cause some interesting lasting dynamics in the Nexus. I can easily have Liv torment NPCs/use them for her own ends but if anyone is looking for an antagonist for their story feel free to sign up here either as a henchman or potential mark.

Liv's much more concerned about finishing her research than she is killing folks so any and all injury/embarrassment/property damage to your characters can be agreed upon before hand and recovered from to varying degrees. Maybe she raided your home/shop for something valuable. Maybe she sent you into a one-way trip to a portal that wasn't so hospitable to your race! You get out, maybe You've got a grudge. You might not be able to face her down on your own but a group or a bigger friend might!

I'm also not opposed to getting something of an archnemesis thing going on with someone in the Nexus but I'm Not interested in Liv just getting her teeth kicked in by some hero/god/being way over her power level on the weekly without getting anything to show for it.

Let me know if anyone wants to start building an antagonistical relationship with my supervillain!

This sounds like a job for Daredevil! ;)

Am interested in signing him up to kick ass/get his ass kicked now and again. I think her mechanotentacles would throw him for a loop until he figures out how to fight them. Could be interesting for them to meet in their street personas as well and get some verbal conflict in.

[multiversal_science]

This is honestly the power level I'm looking for!! A pretty even match up and plenty of chance for barbs to be traded. Imagining how hard Matt would grind his teeth to hear Liv in her 'Neil Degrasse Tyson Cosmos' mode on a tv somewhere and just Know.

[he_put_the_devil_in_me]

Haha yes, that would be great. Even better if they're meeting face to face and he has to pretend he doesn't know she's a bad. 'specially in the Nexus because AVF means he can't do shit to her if she doesn't let him.

[multiversal_science]

God she would abuse this so much.

[shieldborne]

I mean...this would be bad, wouldn't it?

[multiversal_science]

Why, Steven Rogers! There's no need to be shy! As the foremost expert in multiversal physics and alternates there's absolutely nothing to be ashamed about finding yourself to be one of the more ordinary of your kind.

You don't do samples, do you? Probably not, so many uncouth government types looking for a fix to their next world ending crises, nevermind.

Point being, color me Very interested. Especially with Miles and MCU Peter in the Nexus, Steve was likely going to meet Liv one way or another eventually.

[shieldborne]

'Ordinary', huh? That actually could be worse, he'll take it, lol!

But yes, good, excellent. A slow and subtle distrust building to enmity would be hella fun to play.

[multiversal_science]

Something about a clubhouse for wayward boys? She wasn't totally paying attention, but she'd be delighted to talk science to a new dimension of Youths and adults alike who are likely to treat her as the subject matter expert that she is and think nothing at all of what such research could be used for~!

[shieldborne]

This is hilarious and I love it.

Nervously, I offer this proper hellgod villain who's going to come into the Nexus with a view to getting his brother back. (ablacksun)

He's highly powered but will be nerfed to a great degree in the Plaza etc, and the more stable areas. He'll still be pretty powerful in the depths of The Wilds. If your supervillain could do with a little powered backup at any point, in return for a bit of a favour here and there, Abdiron's your guy. Not that he's to be trusted, but he does need to trade on his integrity at times.

No worries if you prefer to keep things at your muse's power level. I just LOVE when the bad guys get together and throw the good guys a curveball.

[multiversal_science]

I'm not sure how well Liv would get along with Abdiron though I'm not opposed to them meeting. She really doesn't trust beings that are superior to her mostly because as a complete egomaniac she's terrified of the idea of not being the most In Control in the room.

That said she has met two supremely powerful beings and while she didn't get along with one, the other she got along pretty well with but that MIGHT be because he hid his true nature from her and acted like a mortal with similar interests.

I'd be down for them meeting and seeing if they work out organically if you are. She might also drive a proper hellgod up a wall given how absolutely irreverent and self important she is, which I'm a bit worried about, because she absolutely couldn't stop one of them from smiting the heck out of her.

[sweetcontagion]

Abe's a bit nuts, so he could go either way with someone who is self-important. He could find it funny, he could be irked by it. He's no fool though, so he may well not be forthcoming with what he actually is. (Although it'll be no great secret once people find out he's Zack's brother.)

But initially, yeah, he's more than likely to omit a lot of information. :)

He's so new, I really need to get him some CR to see where he goes, so having them meet organically is possibly the best way to go. Won't be for a bit, until the event is over though. The AVF would prevent any smiting, methinks.
