SEPTEMBER CR/INTRO MEME

September 2020 Hugtopia OOC & CR Meme

Welcome to Hugtopia! We're so happy to have you all here. We know it can be stressful, starting in a game (or adding a character!) so in an effort to help, we bring you an Intro CR Meme!

We'll be posting this meme each application cycle for all players to meet and plot together, so please be sure to keep an eye out and help each other feel welcome. And be sure to check back often; someone may have a fun new idea in the middle of the night that you might not want to miss out on!

It is recommended that new players or new characters include (NEW) in your subject line, so other players know to welcome you! You can also leave a comment to the NEW top-level mod thread with a link to your own top-level, so people can easily find you.

Here's what to do:

Put a toplevel introducing yourself and the character you're bringing in! You can use the code below (the OOC section) if you like.
Using the CR meme code (the IC section below), fill us in on your character as a reply to your first comment.
Comment around, meet your fellow players, have fun, profit!

Hello I want to play with the cat.

((ALSO you left me a very sweet comment last CR post that I thought I had replied to and then realized I hadn't replied and then everything was an awkward long time later and I suck. BUT THANK YOU. IT WAS VERY SWEET. /) ; A;(\))

She will stay far away from his arms, because she is Difficult.... But he's friends with Shinji, so she'll also probably give him some benefit of the doubt, probably?

OOC
Player Name: Akai
Timezone: EST
Brief Intro: my life mostly revolves around The Adventure Zone & Final Fantasy XV these days, big shock, when I'm not blathering about RP or work. That's pretty much it. I'm over at

fontech!

IC
Character Name: Noctis Lucis Caelum
Canon: Final Fantasy XV
Age: 21! (he leveled up!)

Appearance: a fluffy angee boy
Brief personality: tries to be a Cool Guy, is mostly a huge dork. He can be dry and sarcastic at times, but he's a pretty nice guy overall. He likes kids, loves animals, is overall friendly and helpful, but he can be lazy and he's not afraid to complain about things either. He's also not very princely, which can be a problem, because he is one.
Brief history: tired prince goes on a road trip with his bros to get married. kingdom falls overnight. tired prince evolves into tired king, road trip evolves into revenge and reclaim plot. gods wake up to yell in his direction. evolves into tired chosen one. generally a bad time is had by all. on the plus side: there are chocobos.
Shipping Preferences: he has a girlfriend! he's as surprised as anyone. he's not super public about it but platonic ships only please!

What your character wants/needs: he's had a really rough go lately, thanks to an especially mean canon update and some unfortunate CR losses, but he's on the way up and back to normal these days. still, some kind people would be appreciated. friends! or heck even someone aggressive who can help him regain his old moods and tempers by riling him up, maybe. sparring partners welcome.

Seeking: he needs to get more comfortable with people outside of his small inner circle, so folks who can drag him out of his shell would be ace.

IC Inbox: BAM

Anything else?

OOC
Player Name: Neth
Timezone: GMT-4 / EST+1
Brief Intro: I'm not super into fandoms the past few years, except for Final Fantasy XIV! I mostly play FFXIV and Monster Hunter World. I'm in my last year of Database Administration and was doing a couple courses over the past month (thus sporadic tagging oops), and am starting up the new semester this week (so probably more sporadic tagging, alas). I'm

froakie and generally just post about my cat, RP, and FFXIV.

IC
Character Name: Lup
Canon: Adventure Zone: Balance
Age: looks around 20, is actually 250-300

Appearance: ta da~ her hair highlights change daily! if that's a thing you care about in tags, ask me in a thread!
Brief personality: Lup is snarky, sarcastic, and playful. She loves to have a good time, provided nothing too serious is going on, and she's not the most cuddly person ever, but given enough time and exposure she will absolutely come around. She's also incredibly dangerous and can be reckless, so it's probably unwise to get on her bad side. She's nice (generally) to those who are nice to her and she can be very genuine when she cares, but don't be surprised if she teases you anyway. It's just her way.
Brief history: Lup is one-half of a set of twins, a D&D wizard (evocation), has spent half her life traveling from world to world running away from an apocalypse, and the last decade locked away in a magical artifact unable to feel anything or communicate with the outside world. Things have been sucky! But she's doing her best. She's also CRAU from Drift Fleet.
Shipping Preferences: I play her bi with hetero leanings, she has the hots for older gentlemen but is not exclusive |D it can take her a while to get anywhere romantic, but casual stuff is easier. Currently DTF with no strings attached if there's mutual attraction, she prefers more open relationships as she's already got kind of a literal soulmate back home.

What your character wants/needs: she's pretty comfortable and settled right now, so she doesn't NEED much, but she will always accept more people in her life regardless of purpose. more customers for the restaurant she runs? come to Affurgato! ~~heck that page needs updating~~

Seeking: I accept any and all shenanigans! Lup loves to make mischief, so I'm all for positive CR, negative CR, whatevs. Perpetually touch-starved due to ~trauma~ so she may be outwardly resistant but she really does enjoy getting touched by people she knows/likes :c she's also incredibly open about sex stuff so if anyone needs advice or just a casual hook-up, if there's mutual attraction she'll likely be into it. Friends-with-benefits, what have you.

IC Inbox: at your service!

Anything else?

well... I can only say good luck lmao

IC
Character Name: Era
Canon: FFXIV Shadowbringers (+ Deerington CRAU)
Age: 27

Appearance: 4'8" draconic-looking-but-not-a-dragon woman with a tail and horns and very very bright blue eyes! There's a thin ring of light around her pupils, and her irises have a faint inner light about them while also reflecting some light. They give her a bit of an ethereal vibe.

Reference images here (has some nudity so nsfw!)

Brief personality: Stereotypical heroic personality. She's quiet, kind, dislikes attention, stubborn, opinionated, and all kinds of messed up.
Brief history: Woke up at age 21 without any memories. Had a rough start. Joined the adventurer's guild. Eventually started helping people, slaying gods, destroying castrums, dismantling corrupt theocracies, ending wars, liberating nations, saving worlds, etc. etc. etc.
Shipping Preferences: she is very not available. Σ>―(〃°ω°〃)♡→

What your character wants/needs: wants to find a way to go home and take Ardbert back with her with all their memories intact. Needs more friends and things to do aside from daily chores, exercise, bird care, crafts, etc., etc., etc. She's in a bit of a rut and relies too heavily on Ardbert & the small amount of close CR she currently has. Era also needs to let herself properly grieve for the loss of her other love, but that's a WIP lol. ):

Seeking: Exploration, plotting stuff beyond mundane daily happenstance!

IC Inbox: Here!

Anything else? She'll be going for a canon update soon, and is tentatively planning for her wedding ceremony to be 12/12!

Can't wait for Kaworu to show up and ask everyone a bunch of overly personal questions about their experiences of the human condition!

Anyway hello! I'm honestly pretty excited to have a Kaworu around and see what kind of shenanigans he gets up to, but also please let Shinji help you learn about living human life as something other than a lab rat. There's lots of tasty food to be eaten! And kind people to meet!

He will ask them nonstop and just smile all the time (:
a lot (:
(:

Shinji is more than welcome to show him all the stuff! kaworu is very one track-minded though, he is sorry for all the frustration he may cause (except he probably doesn't realize it)

Likewise!!! Era is so saddened by how down on herself Kyoko is, while also feeling mildly uncomfortable/awkward about the fangirling kjghfgh it's an interesting thread!! I'm hoping to get back to it tonight if Monster Hunter doesn't kidnap me 🙆‍♀️

and mannnn I didn't think it'd still be going! What a long run! So much to binge on when I get around to it +u+

Don't worry, Shinji's working with a lot of patience right now, surely it won't get to a particularly frustrating point any time soon. Just a lot of raw emotions to deal with! It's fine. He's fine.

Let me know if you'd like to keep their TDM thread as game-canon, though! I hope you don't mind if I add you on plurk, too.

She can't help it when Era's just so cool~ And gosh, if she thinks that's an example of Kyoko being down on herself, I don't know what she'd do if she saw any of her real insecurities hahaaa

Oh yep, still going! Nakamura says the end is in sight, but no word on how far off that sight actually is....

Player Name: Em
Timezone: BST but soon to be CEST when I return to Spain on 11th.
Brief Intro: British expat who spends ¾ of the year in Spain teaching English to hyper children and grumpy teens. Tend to tag more at weekends when I'm working. My hobbies are video games, reading, cooking, going out for walks, watching cartoons. Fandoms include Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, Disney, Danganronpa, Ace Attorney and Persona.

Plurk is

daisythesorceress. Feel free to add. PM or PP to ask me for Discord!

Man i should just make an alt on aether, a lot of folks I know seem to play over there. ("Carrie you're still a complete baby just focus on doing the MSQ with your main first." YEAH BUT!! BUT!!!)

That out of the way, Era and Hummy's thread at the party has been real cute and I want them to hang out more!! (also I'm sorry for being slow hbpffhtht i've had family visiting.)

let us scheme things, then! How can we get this cat in your life...

(aw gosh YOU'RE WELCOME! and no worries, you don't suck! Who among us hasn't dropped the ball on things at some point and then been like "oh god is it too late to reply to this WOULD IT BE WEIRD NOW???" ftr, tho, you can basically reply to something of mine wheneverrr and I'll be cool with it lol)

IC
Character Name: Cloud Strife
Canon: Final Fantasy VII Remake
Age: Turned 22 last month!

Appearance: If you have been in anime fandom long enough and you don’t know what the fuck Cloud Strife looks like you’ve been living under a rock but here

Brief personality: On a surface level, Cloud seems like an aloof, badass, standoffish and snarky mercenary who only cares about work and getting paid. Underneath though is a shy and awkward kid who wants acceptance but behaves like a dick because 1. He thinks it makes him look coooooooooooool and 2. It’s a defence mechanism thanks to trauma and self-identity issues he doesn’t want to look into thanx. He is, however, super loyal if he warms up to you and also a massive dork. While his current canon point still has this "I AM A BIG BADASS SOLDIER FEAR MEEEEE!" shit going on, he's slowly dropping the act little by little.

Brief history: Ex-member of elite superhuman squad SOLDIER and employee of world dominating company Shinra except Cloud quit years ago after a traumatic incident and after finding out what fuckers Shinra are. He then became a merc and ended up working for an eco terrorist group and then lots of crazy shit happened.

To avoid Remake and original game spoilers, I will say that Cloud’s history is a little bit more complicated than what I’ve written and there are certain things that aren’t what they seem and people who don’t mind spoilers or have played the games can read his app here.

Shipping Preferences: HAHAHAHA GOOD LUCK AND GODSPEED! I’m open to the idea but he’ll struggle in that area and it’ll take a lot of work because of uh…a mountain of issues.

What your character wants/needs:

- To go home. Not that this is going to happen any time soon.
- FRIENDS. He’s still not going to admit this easily because SOLDIER personality and also a part of him being afraid of getting too close to people because of various things. He has eased a little though and it’s not hard to get him to do fun stuff if you push him a little.
- More mercenary work if he can. It keeps him occupied.
- Since Sephiroth is here he’s going to low-key keep an eye on the guy because of uh….reasons.

Seeking:
- Exploring. More opportunities to get into plot, figure out what is going on, etc.

- Doing mercenary work. He can even be persuaded to do minor stuff like looking for your lost dog for a petty reward (although he might complain about it in the meantime).

- Friends! People who can get him out of his shell a little! Also enemies and frenemies, people to banter with. And people who will troll the shit out of him because it’s surprisingly easy. He might even try to troll back if he sees an opportunity.

- Opportunities for him to get into ridiculous and comical situations because he’s actually very good at getting into them.

IC Inbox: Hellooooooooo

Warnings: Uh….Cloud’s head is VERY messed up and therefore I have provided his permissions post here for those who want to avoid interacting with him or for me to avoid mental illness/trauma stuff or tone it down. That and if you still haven’t played FFVII Remake or FF VII OG and want to avoid spoilers.

Anything else?

Luckily, both children have zero qualms about casually petting random cats. Kaito is entirely likely to either guess that Hummy is a new cat cafe child, or randomly a stray cat (wow pink wow good job Havenwell wow). Vianca reads to the Ohma kitties but is also much more likely to identify pink cat = probably either a pokemon or magic. Maybe a magic pokemon. Wow.

(woof that has been my whole year haha. just a constant string of "oh no oops 8( oh no oops." BUT SAME. or if I did "oh no oops" I am very cool with a prod of "hello did you oops." ((I probably did)) )

Hummy and Lup need to like. officially meet because she is. So stoked at the premise of eating real actual baked goods and having other cats to hang out with AT THE SAME TIME?? and i'd love for her to just SHOUT THIS EXCITEMENT AND PRAISE AT THIS LICH.

Heck yeah! Bring that cute kitty to the shop, Lup will be thrilled by a talking magic cat. Maybe Hummy and her familiar can chitter at each other lol.

Player Name: DeadTea
Timezone: PST
Brief Intro: Hello~ Not into a lot of stuff right now. Still in love with FFXV and starting my millionth playthrough of BOTW. Best contact:

deadtea

A magical cat that happens to visit Affurgato a lot, huh~?

Player Name: Ryoko
Timezone: EST, tagging in the evenings + Sun & Mon afternoons
Brief Intro: Hello! I’m the geeky librarian feeding all of today’s children and teenagers the manga, light novels, video games, etc. we know and love. Final Fantasy XV: The Dawn of the Future? You can bet it’s on our shelves! I mostly talk about FFVII, Bleach, Dead by Daylight, FFXV, and RP on Plurk but occasional nerdy stuff can come up too depending on what I’m reading or studying atm. My personal favorite hobby outside of the obvious is language learning. I am moving toward intermediate proficiency in Japanese with goals for Mandarin on the horizon. This is my first game in a few years and I’d love to have you at

Ryokoful :D

Player Name: Eisah

Brief Intro: Mostly FFXV and FFVIIR right now, but I'm familiar with a variety of other fandoms. I usually talk about braille, my nieces/nephew, cats and other various things.

IC
Character Name: Sephiroth
Canon: Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII
Age: Very debatable! Early-mid twenties.

Appearance: Sephiroth is tall and muscular. He wears a long black coat with silver pauldrons which leaves the chest bare save for two black criss-crossing straps. Black pants and boots finish the monochromatic look. Sephiroth has an insane amount of very long, silver hair which is parted in the middle. His bangs hang to either side of his face. Sephiroth’s eyes are green and cat-like and they glow. He has a sword that is longer than he is tall, but he will only materialize this in a fight.
Brief personality: Sephiroth is a confident, analytical and resilient person who is very good at compartmentalizing. He is introverted and intelligent and despite his renowned abilities does not seek the accompanying fame, glory, or attention. For various reasons, including his introversion, fame, lack of a proper upbringing, and baggage, Sephiroth has led somewhat of an isolated existence and therefore isn’t the best at socializing. Sephiroth’s respect is hard to earn, but he is extremely loyal to those that manage it and takes betrayal or perceived betrayal Very Seriously. Sephiroth is good at planning and research and is relentless in pursuit of his goals, when he actually has goals of his own and isn’t just doing what he’s supposed to do. He has amazing willpower and self-certainty as well. Just...don’t upend his view of himself too much or Very Bad things will happen.
Brief history: Is this spoilers at this point?? Supersoldier loses his mind after finding out about his “mother”/the experiments that created him and goes on to almost destroy the planet and/or kill lots of people several times post-death while declaring himself a god. Before that, was a hero with a couple of friends who kinda sorta abandoned him along with the company they all worked for because of their own issues. Bringing the hero version to Hugs!
Shipping Preferences: Open to any M/F with chemistry. This will take...a long time to properly develop ngl.

What your character wants/needs: Sephiroth is fresh from a series of shocks to his system (read: losing two out of three friends and becoming disillusioned with the company to which he dedicated his whole life) and pretty much wants to be left alone and/or to get back home by whatever means necessary. However, what he needs ~~is an idiot like Zack to drag him out of this~~ is friends. Extraverted people who can drag him out of his shell.

Seeking:
BEAUTIFUL FRIENDSHIPS! I would love to link up with other current/future villains (my personal fave), people who can spar effectively with him (careful if you end up his rival he may never leave you alone <3), smol beans for him to protect, and just anyone who can get past his defenses.

PLOT THINGS! Because Sephiroth wants outta here he’s actively investigating anything he can and would love to get into the thick of it.

SHIPS! I’m open to the idea of slowly building something wonderful.
