Player Name: Brantron
Preferred Contact: FullOfBees

Character Name: Hanayo Koizumi
Blurb: A shy teenage girl who loves singing and dancing and wants more than anything to become an idol.

AU Info: Hanayo is mostly the same as she is in canon, except that she's worked Pokemon into her performing style through the use of various sound-based moves like Belly Drum and Grass Whistle. Since the Love Live cast lost a few members recently, she's probably going to be pursuing a mostly solo idol career soon.

Pre-Existing CR: She's still in school and volunteers part time at the Breeding Center. Also anyone who's interested in Pokemon contests, since she spends a fair bit of time hanging around that whole scene.
Looking for: Fellow idol fans, people to become her fans, idol-senpais for her to look up to and train under, people who will push her out of her comfort zone and get her to take risks and try new things.
Potential Connections: Pretty much what I said above - school, Breeding Center, etc.

Other Info: Nope!

Character Name: Chie Satonaka
Blurb: Obsessed with martial arts and meat.

AU Info: Chie's AU mostly resembles what she's like at the end of Persona 4 / beginning of Arena, in that she's more confident and knows what she wants to do with her life. Instead of deciding to become a police officer, she's joined the Swords of the Savior. Her favorite type is the Dragon type, because TRIAL OF THE DRAGON. She herself is a Fighting/Ice type Master of Training. I'll probably try to see if she can get promoted in the Swords soon, but other than that, no terribly specific plans.

Pre-Existing CR: Chie's not in school anymore, having graduated last summer, but it's possible people could know her that way if they're the right age. Also anyone in the Swords probably knows of her by this point, as she's a fairly active member.
Looking for: Anything and everything, really. Having a battle buddy in the Swords would be pretty great, but I'm not sure how many active members we have left. Also people to challenge her relatively black-and-white sense of justice or just to get up in her face in general about stuff.
Potential Connections: I always feel like this ends up being the same thing as the Pre-Existing CR section. Swords of the Savior, pretty much!

Other Info: Owing to her Ice typing, Chie's skin is always slightly chilly to the touch, and her breath is visible at all times like on a cold winter's day.

Anything Else?: Nope!

Character Name: Merrill
Blurb: A member of a wandering tribe of people who lost their home a thousand years ago when the ancestors of Gigas invaded and enslaved them, and then a second time five hundred years ago during the cataclysm. She's interested in history and the occult, and her driving goal is to uncover the lost history of her people and their first civilization.

AU Info: Merrill's AU replaces the Tevinter Imperium with Gigas and the Blight with the Cataclysm, but is otherwise basically the same as it's presented in Dragon Age II. Also, instead of a pride demon, she unsealed a particularly mean-spirited Spiritomb, which led to her banishment from her clan. She's bound to it with blood magic, and has promised it her body to do with as it will after she dies in exchange for its help finding out her peoples' lost history. Basically, this girl makes nothing but bad choices.

Pre-Existing CR: Not before coming to Union unless the character is also a member of a wandering tribe like the Dalish.
Looking for: Anything at this point, as Merrill's CR circle is relatively small.
Potential Connections: Merrill is a member of the Seekers and also hangs out at the library a lot.

Other Info: Being friends with her may backfire gloriously at some point because she has no sense of self-preservation.

Anything Else?: Too lazy for gifs.

Character Name: Lenna Charlotte Tycoon
Blurb: A fluffy and peace-loving member of one of Union's oldest noble families. Her father has been missing under mysterious circumstances for about a year, and in the meantime she's taken over as head of the family. Most of her efforts revolve around charity and helping both the poor of Union and travelers from outside the city trying to make a new start.

AU Info: Instead of a princess, Lenna is the daughter of a member of Union's Council. Her father went missing about a year ago, flying off to somewhere in the east on his Dragonite. She's got less of a taste for adventure overall since there's no AU Bartz around, and spends more of her time focusing on events in Union itself. The Tycoon family is known for its charity work and for a strong association with the Dragon type - every head of the family raises a Dragonite from an egg.

Pre-Existing CR: Any member of the noble class would certainly have heard of Lenna. It's also possible your character has been the recipient of some Tycoon family charity at some point if they're either a refugee or a Union native who's poor or orphaned.
Looking for: Anything goes. I feel like Lenna's CR pool has been shrinking lately, so I need to build it back up.
Potential Connections: In the section of town where the nobles live, but she also isn't shy about just going out among the people. She's very friendly, so it's possible to bump into her anywhere.

Other Info: None!

Anything Else?: No!

Sinbad would like to know Chie better, being that she's friends with Morgiana and of the 'any friend of my friend is my friend' philosophy. and he's really kind of a meddler when it comes to people

[ladyofluminosity]

Lux and Lenna need to celebrate Lenna's new evolution, I think. Also I'd love to get more CR between her and Chie, considering the body swap event a while back. I've always felt like that was a missed opportunity.

GIRLS' NIGHT

Or, y'know, something. But yes, celebrations should happen. I'm all for more CR with her and Chie, too, if we can figure out a good avenue to open them up into that.
