Character Tryout

[leici]

The original purpose of the playground community was for our players (and/or people who might be interested in playing here someday) to have a place to play with characters they don't have in game. Rather than having a scheduled time for these sorts of posts, we thought it would be more flexible and fun to have it be open-ended so anyone could post anytime they wanted to try out a new character.

In the chat recently someone mentioned that they were interested in doing something like this, so I thought I would put up a post to encourage anyone who was interested to come play. The rules are simple: post a top-level comment with a character you would like to try out. You can play any character you like as long as they aren't currently being played in game and aren't being reserved by someone else. In your comment be sure to include the name of your character and their canon. Then anyone interested in tagging your character can comment to start a conversation.

So, come, post your characters, and have fun!

Or, if nothing else, come tag Cisco, because I'm dying to start getting to write him. ;)

You're not the Charles Xavier I was expecting. That's probably a good thing.

[cxavier]

What were you expecting? Have we met before? Perhaps in the future?

[rememory]

I suppose you might be the you in my world, sometime in the future. I hope not, for your sake.

[cxavier]

Did something happen to me? Or because of me? You certainly seem frightened of me, which is troubling indeed.

[rememory]

Frightened is the wrong word. Wary, perhaps. Angry, definitely.

In the interests of not screwing up timelines, let's just say that the next time you get the impulse to withhold information or manipulate your students, no matter what your reasoning is, don't do it.

[cxavier]

I can't imagine a reason I would do that, even where I came from, but I won't take your advice lightly. I know it won't change what you went through, but I apologize for whatever I did in the timeline you're from.

I was lucky enough not to suffer as a result. I can't say the same for Scott. But since it wasn't you, I don't plan to hold it against you and neither will he. You'll understand, I hope, if I'm not quick to befriend you.
