AU PLANNING MEME

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.

<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.)

Player Name: Sheepy
Contact Info: sheepyton

Character Name: Excellen Browning
Canon Name: Super Robot Wars: Original Generation
Brief History: Excellen is a sniper mecha pilot pervert mom and also part alien due to an accident that nearly killed her. Also has an alien clone and a parallel world version of herself.

Yeah, SRW is complicated.

AU Ideas: Excellen is a member of the Steel Battalion, formerly serving under Thorin Oakenshield. When she was younger (probably between 12-13), she, along with a few other student-cadets, were caught in the conflict between Gigas and Caldera near Sanctuary. Only she, along with one other student (Kyosuke Nanbu) survived. However, very seriously injured, Excellen was taken in by people of Sanctuary--outside of Gigan jurisdiction--due to proximity, as well as due to the power of certain magi healers. She was released months later and brought back to Caldera. Due to the nature of her injuries, she wouldn't return to training for another year or so.

Excellen has been serving as a soldier since she was 18, and is an extremely gifted sniper and Engineer. She was recently re-assigned to Union in order to bolster their fighting force. She will be a Flying/Normal Engineer.

Anything else?: Excellen is an insatiable flirt, and loves to tease people. Hide yo kids hide yo wife cause Excell-oneesama's coming to town.

Thorin would like to know why half the people he knows are migrating to Union.

[platinumlucifer]

You're just too much of a hottie to leave alone, Boss!

But in all seriousness, I think Void and I are mostly just handwaving it. Excellen got reassigned along with a few others from his squad to make sure that Union is safe. Or maybe just Kyosuke did and then Excellen put in her request too. It's hard to say.

[darer]

Here he thought he left his military career behind but NAH NEVER GONNA GIVE YOU UP apparently.
I mostly think it's funny honestly.

So do you have any ideas for war stories/memorable moments for them to have had?

[platinumlucifer]

I'm trying to think. I'm wondering if he might have known her as a cadet. If so, I'll need to PM you about a few things concerning the accident.

[darer]

I think it's possible! If you want, we can roll with that.

DO EXCELLEN AND KYOSUKE WANT TO BE HER OZMA

[steelbeowulf]

I think Kyosuke can be suitably overprotective.

[platinumlucifer]

Does that mean we can play house, Kyosuke~?

[steelbeowulf]

Kyosuke doesn't "play". Everything he does is 100% serious intensity.

[platinumlucifer]

I think Excellen likes where this is going.

[steelbeowulf]

A mortgage and sound financial plan for cohabitation?

[platinumlucifer]

Yeah yeah whatever let's get to the going to bed part.

[triangled]

So I hear you need a rookie buttmonkey to push around

[platinumlucifer]

You heard right~
