ENABLE ME PLEASE

Welcome to Expiation's CR meme! This is a post where players can plot with each other on the direction they'd like to go for the month, and so on and so forth. There's a form below for you to fill out below, so get plotting!

We're now inclding an EMP element since it's an app month! We have an APP THIS PLEASE and ENABLE ME PLEASE in the comments below with a form, so if you're interested in participating, use the form and comment under the subject title applicable. Other than that, the regular comments will go as a normal CR meme would! Also, the TDM will be posted in the log comm with old and new characters alike able to top-level on it.

The SOTG for February is HERE. Feel free to browse around if you haven't already, and check out the MAIN NAVIGATION for more detailed info about the game itself.

FEBRUARY TDM/MINGLE

TEST DRIVE/MINGLE: LOVE IS IN THE... AIR?

Aldrip's Day of Devotion celebration has become tradition among the locals. This year, to celebrate the occasion, the events center will open its doors to both locals and chosen for a special party. Strangely, not a lot of the locals seem to be attenting...well, at least it's not crowded.

The party is a little lackluster, if we're being honest. Corny cut-paper decorations, low-budget food, sappy music. The staff seem to be dedicated to making this event a roaring success, though! They'll be obsessively pairing up any single folks they see, even if that just means grabbing the closest random stranger. There will be some games, too: speed dating, a secret tunnel of love, gift giving, and things like that.

In game, the party takes place on February 17, but we'll be putting the log up on February 10, so it'll be forward-dated.

Character: Clark Kent/Superman
Canon: My Adventures with Superman
Canon Point: Post season 2

Crime: Being an illegal alien, both literally and figuratively.

Background: The Superman himself, though this version is younger and less experienced at this whole superhero thing. He's more than a little awkward and anxious since he's spent so long internalizing the fact that he isn't "normal" like most human beings and didn't know much about his alien origins until recently, but he still wants to help people and is gradually coming to terms with his abilities and his Kryptonian heritage.

Abilities: Along with the classic Superman combo of super strength/super speed/super toughness/flight, Clark has super-hearing, heat vision, x-ray vision, ice breath, a bio-electric aura, and the ability to survive in space without oxygen.

Plans: Clark is planning on using his journalism background to make a newsletter of sorts that can help newcomers and keep the people of Aldrip informed...though since January was a busy month for me (and a lot of us, it seems), the particulars kind of got away from me. I'm hoping to actually get that off the ground this month, though I'm also open to anyone who might want to collaborate with Clark on that. Aside from that, as usual, I generally like to play things by ear!

How can you run into my character? Clark will generally be out and about most places, especially as Superman and/or other people are in trouble, so that's an easy way to run into him.

I'd love another thread with Clark and Gwen if you're up for it! Either as Gwenpool+Supes or in civilian mode.

[anormalman]

Yes, definitely! I'm sorry for being so slow with the TDM thread...

It would be fun if Clark ran into her as a civilian at some point, though whether or not Gwen will recognize him is up to you.

[variantcover]

ACK, my turn to be slow... Sorry, February is kicking my butt.

But yeah! I'd love them to run into each other as civilians! I'm willing to play it either way in terms of Gwen recognizing him. I feel like on sight, the standard Supes glasses/posture disguise ought to work on her so as not to break kayfabe, but once he tells her his name, she'd have the chance of putting two and two together, as long as that's kosher with you?
