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>

Yeeeeessss. :D Good!

Vin and Sophia could meet, especially if she became a Seeker? Vin is probably joining them. She was a street rat from Sanctuary who found out she had superpowers was a non-Child of Unbound Knowledge Enlightened and later left for Union.

Also, her dad is a Gigan who was involved in the occupation. He could have known Sophia prior to not!Feff doing his thing?

hope you brought enough for everyone!!

I'd absolutely be down for that, very different generations from the same city (not that Sophia remembers any of that!)

Ohh, that could definitely be interesting. Would he have been involved in the servitor conscriptions at all?

oh shit uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh brb

This sounds good! There can be fun discoveries as she gets her memories back.

And he definitely could have been! He is a pretty minor character in canon and a blank slate at BNW; about the only note is he's high-ranking and didn't know Vin existed.

/taps foooot

Absolutely. I'm kind of looking forward to some skewed perspectives due to difference in how they were (or weren't) being raised, too.

I think we could definitely work with that, I'd imagine different projects would have meant different officers would have toured facilities at varying times over the years. (It's been forever since I read the Mistborn books, I'll have to see if I still have them or if I gave them to the library at work.)

Yessss. Many of those! Vin was poor as dirt and kinda shaped by that. Not a lot of trust for the upper crust or Gigas! But, well. Ex-Gigas.

And yeah! They're good stuff. Vin's canon dad wasn't much to speak of so I'm pretty free to innovate. I figure he definitely might have toured facilities and stuff, and also maybe checked on how servitors were doing? "Fine examples for the people back home!" and such.
