AU PLANNING MEME (FEBRUARY + MARCH)

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>

Player Name: Fae
Contact Info: This comment or my plurk if you have it XD;;

Character Name: Rikku
Canon Name: Final Fantasy X/X-2
Brief History: Cheerful thief from a world with ritualistic suicide mission that she ends up helping to stop.

AU Ideas: Rikku is from Sanctuary, but is Earthkin who doesn't really hide it and from a group that doesn't actually like Mages all that much (or rather the favoritism shown to Mages) and likes tech! She's been on the outskirts all her life, but her family and friends did help with the revolt and she's now going out of the city to explore. She would have been in Caldera during the Day of Fire, if people want to have met here there, or if you were at the Sanctuary liberation plot and wanted to have been helped by her, lemme know!

And yep, still kinda klepto.

Looking For: ALL THE THINGS

Anything else?: I don't keep gifs? XD;;

Raquna's Calderan and definitely could have met Rikku during Day of Fire!

[disasterrific]

Yes good \o/ What's she do?

[protectsall]

She's a member of the Steel Battalion! It's entirely possible she was present during the Sanctuary liberation too.

[disasterrific]

Ooh, Rikku might end up calling her a hero if she was.

[demenscantrix]

How might she feel about the former Gigan commander in Sanctuary...who mysteriously vanished a few years ago and got replaced by someone *worse* ? And with no memory of everything, to boot?

[disasterrific]

Panic XD I approve

[demenscantrix]

Why do you plebs all run in fear?

[disasterrific]

Uh because you were a force of oppression in a city and are still kind of a citizen of a very bad place?

[demenscantrix]

Check her own AU planning here ^_^ She was actually the nice kind of commander, she tried to reform education and give money where needed. What happened to her was kind of complicated. Suffice to say, Gigas probably doesn't want her back.

[disasterrific]

...okay less panic. Still cautious! But less panic.

[untalented]

Upon thinking about it, it's entirely possible for Waver and Rikku to have met. Waver is from Sanctuary himself and, although he's technically a Magus, he's from the wrong side of town and was too poor to get a proper education.

Also, he just needs more crazy people in his life. Rikku would be hilarious.

[disasterrific]

You had me at "crazy people". I am all for this and the epic facepalms that Waver will deal with :D How old is he?

[untalented]

He just turned 20 this passed December, so they're fairly close in age if I'm recalling the game right. Rikku's.....what, 18?

[disasterrific]

17 during FFX-2 so she'll be 18 in the summer...yeah, close enough! Perfect
