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.

Anything Else?: HELLO... Feel free to add if you wish! My plurk is 50/50 real life/work bitching and RP but I try to label everything.

Character: Miller
Canon: Metro (video game)
Canon Point: Metro Exodus - Novosibirsk

Crime: Betrayal of the Spartan Order ... but he, uh, served his time for that. Supposedly!

Background: Toxically overprotective dad and commander of a semi-secret militia in post-apocalyptic Moscow. The year is 2035 and the surface of the Earth was sent into a nuclear winter marking the end of WWIII. All survivors fled into the metro system where a new society rife with civil war and corruption has been formed. He's a former Spetsnaz GRU colonel and, as such, is only now trying to get over a decades long obsession with occupying enemy forces.

Personality-wise, he's intolerant, temperamental, and paranoid! But he's also heavily invested in maintaining order and protecting his "people" and, after almost a year in Expi, his fellow Chosen are starting to become his people, too. 🫡

Abilities: Normal human with tons of military and survival experience!

Plans: STARES INTO THE CAMERA. Look, I am notoriously bad at pre-planning, but after hiatusing for January, I am going to do my damndest to throw myself into everything I can this month. From inducting more people into the fold of Aldrip defense crew to silly day of devotion mingle stuff to starting up some new CR, I'm here for all of it.

How can you run into my character? He works half at the casino and half at Silco's strip club, as security in both locations. He can also easily be found at the Last Drop, spends a lot of time scouting the surrounding area for monsters, and is a general busybody with any perceived changes in town, so I can pretty much fudge him being wherever.

look i don't have any metro memes that aren't like this

I would love more Miller time for either of my characters! I remember he and Ethlyn talked a little bit about being parents in a dangerous world (and maybe about being dead??) and Visas definitely has experience with an apocalypse and also trying to get by in a shattered world (or rather, postwar galaxy, but same principle).

[melnik]

Aw yes, I would love that! I was really enjoying the dynamic between him and Ethlyn so far. He doesn't know, but he has a suspicion that he's dead back home, too, (lol) so talking to her about that was enlightening. I'd love to delve more into that and/or just have them keep the expi parents club alive.

And I'm super interested in Visas too! I feel like he has so much he could learn from her.
