+1 el--oh wait no, demon. The pointed ears threw me off.

Hello Exsilium! I'm Haley, completely new to the game, and with me I'm bringing Chrono from Chrono Crusade!

Chrono's a young boy that in his native world serves as the assistant to Sister Rosette Christopher, a gun-totin', demon-slaying nun and exorcist living it up in 1924. She's a real spitfire, so Chrono's used to being the calmer, "polite" one of the duo and does his best to be patient and keep Rosette in check.

He's also actually a demon that's probably nearly a century old, and is contracted to Rosette to replace his horns, which were ripped out of his head long ago and took his ability to absorb astral energy to use his powers with them. Now he uses Rosette's own soul to fuel his powers instead, which is not-so-slowly killing her. Considering he's really, really attached to Rosette, this causes no small amount of angst. (Really, most of Chrono's personality and backstory could be described as "cute, polite kid on the outside, RAGING BALL OF ANGST AND DESTRUCTION on the inside!")

Normally Chrono wouldn't be able to switch to his true form without Rosette unsealing his powers, but Chrono's chosen that as his "weapon", so on missions he'll be able to once again be his tall, muscle-bound, scary demon self--albeit with limited powers until it "evolves."

Chrono's coming from the manga, right before the "Marionette Train" arc, iiif...that means anything to anyone here. I'll probably get around to ICly having him show up tomorrow, since it's late and I still have a few things I'd like to fix up on this account before I feel that it's "ready". But...yeah. I'm excited to get to playing and meeting all of you!

Oh my god CHRNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. That is singlehandedly one of my most favorite series~ Though I will admit I liked the anime ending more than the manga. Still it is GREAT to see a Chrno Crusade muse in the RP world.

Hey at least you've read the manga! :-) I prefer the manga overall but I have to admit that the final scene with Rosette and Chrono is just beautiful.

Here's hoping I do Chrono justice!

[explodewiththerage]

The whole sci fi turn near the end had me too busy going WTF is going on to properly take in the emotional side of events XD That and I am a sucker for bitter sweet endings with the accent put on the bitter bit. >~>;;;;;

I am sure you will do fine~ o/

[tenmorehours]

LOL YEAH that twist was pretty weird. XD I sorta like it, but I can COMPLETELY understand why that would throw people off. I think I was IMing a friend when I was first reading that and most of my messages during that part were just variations of "WHAT THE HELL?!"

Hee, thank you! <3

[explodewiththerage]

Yea and the anime did have that subtle scene right before the credits that helped connect it more to Real life history with the whole pope assassination attempt.

[tenmorehours]

Yeah, they definitely tried to connect it in with real historical events a little more.

Hello there, I am Alec and I play two not!Gackts. This one is the pout face yakuza vampire Sho from the movie Moon Child. The other one is the cannibalistic serial killer Teijirou Takegami from the show Mr. Brain.

Welcome to the game!

[tenmorehours]

Hiya Alec, thanks for the welcome! I'm grinning like an idiot over the concept of a yakuza vampire.

[urnotafraid]

Wow I totally thought I replied to this but I sure didn't

Welcome to the game, Haley! I'm Lettie. I play: Alistair (Dragon Age - woahwoahawkward), Mystique (X-men: First Class - studieswaitressing), Haymitch (The Hunger Games - hungover), and Tali'zorah (Mass Effect - gofortheoptics), and I'm sure that one of my kids might get along with Chrono!

[tenmorehours]

Thanks Lettie! It's nice to meet you. I know Dragon Age and Mass Effect so I'm pretty confident that Chrono would like Alistair and Tali at the very least.

[studieswaitressing]

Excellent!
