AU PLANNING MEME (DECEMBER + JANUARY)

Given the nature of AU, below is a form that can be used for planning purposes when plotting out your character. While it is not required to fill out the form, we encourage you take a look at the listings in this post and use them as a guide when setting up plots or planning character backgrounds.

<span style="font-family: calibri; font-size: 13px;"><b>Player Name:</b> (What name you go by in-game) <b>Contact Info:</b> (What is the best way to contact you for plotting purposes) <b>Character Name:</b> (The name of your character) <b>Canon Name:</b> (What canon they come from) <b>Brief History:</b> (A brief blurb about the character, does not have to be overly detailed. This is used to give a basic idea of who this character is) <b>AU Ideas:</b> (Here is where you talk about what plans you may have for your character's intended AU. Reading this, others should hopefully get an idea of what you intend to do with your character's back story pertaining to the game's setting.) <b>Looking For:</b> (This section is for hypothetical things you would like to see, be it events, people related to them, whatever; canon parallels, character proxies, all of that goes here.) <b>Anything else?:</b> (Anything that you feel has been overlooked or that should be noted goes here.)</span>

New player?

Player Name: Prof
Contact Info: ProfessorProf

Character Name: Suika Ibuki
Canon Name: Touhou Project
Brief History: Suika is an oni, one of the Four Devas of Mt. Ooe. More relevantly, she's a ridiculous party animal with super strength, whose primary engagement with society is to get as drunk as possible, attend wild parties, and accidentally break things. Actually pretty intelligent, but usually doesn't apply that intelligence to anything constructive. Hobbies include drinking, causing a ruckus, punching things, attending parties, and doing all of those things while drinking.

AU Ideas: I'm looking at Suika as a Fanalis, like Morgiana! The idea is that she'd show up, possibly looking like the start of some new mystery or subplot, but then instead she just hangs out with everyone getting shitfaced and trolling people, possibly occasionally helping out when there's a big fight. Tentative power list: Super strong, Can turn insubstantial (ghost type), doesn't age properly (age 70).

Looking For: Any of the following:
People who enjoy loud parties for her to hang out with.
People who enjoy friendly violence for her to punch.
Stuffy people who she can be irreverent around.
Big things for her to pick up and throw at other things.

Anything else?:
One pokemon is probably enough. I'm thinking a Slowpoke, or maybe a Snorlax. I haven't looked into how starters work really.

Finally! Someone she can learn of her people's culture and legends from! I'm sure Suika will have many insightful wisdom and lessons for Morgiana, right?

...right?

Prepare to be surprised.

The funny thing is she probably does. She just won't be sharing them dilue to being too drunk.

So I heard that onis Fanalis have the good stuff.

This reminds me that I need to figure out what to AU for The Gourd. Either it's some kind of strange item that will require reading up on the setting in more detail to sort out, or she'll just stick to local booze sources.

Enhanced Item. Converts water into booze when filled. This might work.
