misc plot information all up in here

[initiates]

If you'd like to use a second journal for your character during the upcoming timeline swap plot, let us know here! We'll only be allowing temporary access to the comms to journals that show up in comments on this page, so get in while the gettin's good.

<b>Character name:</b> <b>Journal:</b> <b>Event Journal:</b>

Additionally, remember when I said that OCs will require a short (4-6 sentences) description of how they'll be different? That goes here, too! Don't worry, it's not a second app — just for people who are curious about what to expect, since there's no canon to go and look up.

Thanks!

OC DESCRIPTIONS HERE

[initiates]

[charming_jerk]

OH HAI. Johnny will be showing up from ten years in his future. By that point, he's still living on the run, but has given up trying to find his friend Lukas, figuring him to be back in the Underworld or dead. His horns have grown all the way in, and he's scarred, beaten and tired. He's had to fight off a lot of demons and even a few angels, just to have the right to stay alive. His attitude is more jaded but less caustic, since he's grown out of that awkward and rebellious teenage phase (FINALLY). He still, however, short-tempered, and doesn't much dealing with people. But being in Exsilium will be like a vacation to him. No one's trying to kill him specifically, and he can get himself a nice shower and something to eat!

I won't be making a new account for him. I'll just be adding a few new icons to this one.

Re: OC DESCRIPTIONS HERE

[ghostling]

Pulling Ghost from about ten years into her future, due to the nature of her abilities she hasn't physically changed much but mentally she has. Crap between mutants and humans has only grown worse. She seen a few of her friends die and was unable to do anything to help. So she's a little bitter about that. She's become much more confident in herself and her abilities, she's no longer as afraid to use said abilities either. She's much more outgoing and doesn't see a reason to hide who or what she is (unlike Ghost now). She's also begun to reach the point of being fed up with how mutants or just anyone different in general is treated so she's more likely to lash out violently rather than try to talk things over first.

Basically taking her from the point before she starts her downward spiral into becoming a basically a monster.

[freshlysummoned]

Eshkol/the Witness will be AS IMPLIED BY THE VERY CLEVER USERNAME, new to existence! 6000 years or so newer to existence. His creator is still testing him out and hasn't used him to commit any really spectacular crimes yet, so this unnamed creature is just sort of wandering around, wondering why everyone's got one of those slashes on their faces with all the little white things inside, and he just gets nothing. Why, he doesn't even have a reason to be grumpy yet, let alone hateful of everything human-shaped. (B

[outright]

Vanadi will be pre-cyborg! Which means he's a spoiled rich aristocrat that lives at home and is used to getting everything his way, because of his family name and ridiculous amounts of money. He still wants to sleep with everything, and he's still charming and suave, but since he's not mutilated and attention-starved he doesn't feel the compulsion to be friends with every living thing he meets. So that means he's an asshole to whom people don't actually mean much!

Max Kearney & Roslyn Small

[motherofnemesis]

Max will be coming in from approximately 13 years in her past. At this point in time, she's 18, just graduated from high school, and has been a vigilante for about three months. She's young, enthusiastic, and will have her costume and be patrolling. All of the jadedness, bitterness, and anger of current Max is basically erased, because 13 years of terrible shit hasn't happened to her yet. She's a teenager with a great deal of love for what she does and a firm belief that things always turn out well. She does however continue to be stubborn, have issues with being nonsecretive because a) vigilante b) she has always had issues with being secretive, and is far too reckless for her own good (she has yet to learn precisely how bad that can get for her). She'll be using the journal nyktelios.

Roslyn will be from about three years into her future! She's returned to her job with the Bureau after the death of one of the last remaining members of her team, which wasn't that great a time for her. However, during her break from the bureau she started dating a CIA agent meant to recruit her, began attending therapy, and got her feet under her a lot better. Though the job remains difficult, she's a much more centered and happy person these days. She remains reserved and not all that emotionally intelligent, but she is lighter. Since she's just jumping 3 years she won't be using an alternate journal.

[nanite]

js i can't wait for max to like, gravitate down to tony's little workshop lab thing and find a maybe-eight year old welding shit who is so not afraid to talk smack at her. and then to later run into sixteen year old tonypartyboy

same for ros, although obvs for different reasons. she can see like, how nice he was at first, creative, bright, happy, and then how sarcastic and assholey he is, and compare it to the tempered version of both he's got now. RIGHT? idk

bb!tony journal has no icons yet

[seamend]

Aileen not-yet-doctor-not-even-Kimbler is coming from basically the first few minutes she dragged herself up onto land. Meaning everything she knows about humans or even LAND is all from stories her family told her. She won't know how to read, or even walk and actually her legs will be pretty painful and weak for her to use. In her story this is minutes before a shapeshifter took her in and started her off on a road to fitting in with humanity, so she'll honestly look like some any wet... scaley woman who washed up on shore. Thankfully for modesty's sake, it's at least right after she was given a towel to wear and hopefully she'll be discovering her own wardrobe at her apartment.
Basically she'll be sitting around asking tons of shy but excited questions to anyone who makes eye contact.

[gratefuldead]

I'm taking Elisabet from her pre-DEATH INCARNATE days. So she'll be showing up as a snot-nosed ragamuffin 7 year old for a dirt-poor town. She'll be loud, rude, obnoxious, and just dying for a chance to prove what a TOUGHIE she is. That also means she'll likely try to bully anything smaller than her(and possibly things bigger too, if they talk down to her) and will pretty try to turn all conversation into a confrontation. Oh and no she will not wear shoes, you can't stop her. whateva, whateva, she does what she WANTS.

[bloodspeaker]

Adrasteius will be ~100 years younger than he is now, back (way back) before he was a blood elf and everything went to hell for his race as a whole. He'll be a high elf again--blue-eyed instead of green. His hair will be several shades lighter & he won't have any tattoos. Personality-wise, he'll be calm, patient, and serene. In other words, completely different from the angry, judgmental jackass he eventually becomes.

Bariyan & Satero

[stonefaith]

Satero: will be coming in as a 10 year old kid! He's just been discovered as a "chasm" (a magical sink); notably, he CAN'T control that ability, and will always absorb any magic used within a 5-foot radius of him. NO OTHER POWERS TO SPEAK OF THOUGH. He's pretty happy and and pleased with his life and, when he really has to be he can even be decently polite and well-behaved! HOWEVER, SET LOOSE, HE IS A LITTLE HELLION who will climb and break and chew upon all of your shit kind of like a untrained puppy. Most importantly, HE WILL BE COMPLETELY SANE. Or as sane as a little boy can be, anyway.

Bariyan: will be coming in approx 1.0min after his boyfriend stabs like a billion holes into his arms/chest/back (the boyfriend works fast ok), and approx 0.2s before his boyfriend chops his head off. STILL ALIVE. He'll be... incredibly lost and bewildered and HOPELESS AND DESPAIRING AND SCARED but chances are he'll try to repress the worst of that and hide that anything's wrong at all. WHICH MEANS that he will (in an awkward, forced, extremely distant manner) be pleasant, fairly sweet, easy to smile and easy to laugh, and extremely non-confrontational.

[mr_wing_tip_shoes]

Niall will be 50 years older, sort of wiser, and marginally less of a dick. He's gotten a hell of a lot better with his empathy, namely when it comes to subtlety and not wrecking people's brains. He likes to think of himself as a gentleman and is much more civil; also much less likely to shoot anything vaguely fae shaped. He's learned patience and that crime doesn't pay well enough. Well, not nearly as well as owning a casino. He's still terrible, just better at hiding it, much better dressed, and has much better places to be than goofing off in Exsilium.

He got better?

[deathwalker]

Lance will be showing up a few months before life decides to kick him in the face. He'll be a 5 year old, happy little dandelion puff of a kid who is the pampered child of an elven princess (and the god of Chaos but that hasn't quite registered yet). He's used to getting what he wants and, if he doesn't get it, he'll tell his mom on you....and maybe call you a meanie. He's about as intimidating as a marshmallow and likes everybody. Everybody. He'll be running all over the place asking questions and climbing on things and coming to terms with the idea that elves aren't the only race in the world.

[whomheloved]

(Not really an OC, but none of her childhood is shown in canon so I'm elaborating on my headcanon for her here.)

Disciple - she was orphaned at a young age, her lusus killed while protecting her from a higherblood and their lusus, and she only barely escaped. She's spent the past couple of sweeps living feral and has nearly forgotten her own name. As she hasn't been speaking with anyone she'll be very rusty at talking and extremely wary of other people, trolls or not. She hasn't yet heard Signless preaching at this point.

Blaine

[strategic_guile]

Blaine is going to be taken from about 20 years in the future and he'll be around 50 years old. During that time he became an adoptive father when his mentor and lover died ten years ago and left him a surprise son. The mother also died and so Blaine procured himself a two-year old [who is 12 when Blaine is pulled from canon again]. Aside from freaking the hell out, he matured and settled down a lot more than he might've with only obligations to the Org and Family. He's still a bit sarcastic, but for the most part he's calm and doesn't tease or try to get a rise out of people like he used to. He flirts, but he isn't in your face about it. He a mature adult...!

Belthazar Spellscry

[arcanepower]

Belth will be showing up from a while before the Sunwell was destroyed. He would have been living with his sister, who is on her way to becoming a fantastic priestess. He LOVES LOVES LOVES books and isn't quite so mean to people, seeing as he's got that lovely childhood obliviousness thing going on. Mentally/physically he'll be about 6-7-- very smart, eager to learn, and obsessed with magic. He will have blue-green eyes with an arcane blue glow to them. His hair, unfortunately, is still terrible.

He will not be remembering anything from Exsilium.

[failtsuninari]

Tenjou will go backwards, looking physically 10 but mentally thirty. He was a bit of a runt before before puberty hit and he won't have his braid and piercings. Also he's still practice his ability so it might backfire. He has a tendency to go running off on his own and still has his complex towards his dad. Oh yeah and he has a bit of a snarky mouth so feel free to smack upside the head when necessary.

[allsongs]

Simmaeri will be a giant fantasy dinosaur at one point for a little while (enough to have fun with plenty of people!). THE REST OF THE TIME SHE WILL REMAIN VISUALLY 100% THE SAME LOL IMMORTALITY but just be wondering where x-person went off to or why y-location is now a drab awful city and OOOH LISTEN TO ALL THE NEAT NEW WORDS aka just as she was when she first appeared.

Fantasy dinosaur is rly big and will be really far away from the city the whole time, looking for the snow. She cannot use human languages aloud, but communicates through weaving sound spells (like she tends to when she sings anyway), and will be genuinely curious about the little talking things. This will be at the point where she's first descended from the north to find said talking things in her own world, which ultimately determines her choosing to take a human form for the rest of her immortal life. PARALLELLLLLS.

[healplz]

Ashraf will be headed back to age 18/19, when he was still an acolyte! An acolyte nearing the end of his training and close to ready to become a priest, but still an acolyte nonetheless. That means that his heals restore somewhat less and take waaaayyy more out of him. The only useful spells he has are that blessing (which will still be just as powerful) and the agility spell, teleporting, and... that's about it. He'll also be pretty easy to anger and a lot more short with people, because he hasn't really learned the art of patience yet. He still has the compassion part down pretty good, though.

[sunstormed]

Duibhín will be younger (Mid teens or so) and still a High Elf. He'll likely be a great deal more open towards non-Elves though he won't have as much patience. His parents will still be alive, and he'll be far more cheerful for that. Duib's eyes will be a bright blue instead of the felgreen, also! He's just a bit of a nerd still doing his Mage-training thing and MAGIC IS REALLY AWESOME AND KNOWLEDGE IS POWER.

[wolfmd]

Isaac will be a rambunctious 7-year old.

In his timeline, this is shortly after his older brother smashed his leg and had to go the hospital, so he's just had his first real exposure to people who don't know about werewolves and discovered that medicine is an amazing thing.

Isaac's basic personality is much the same, minus some maturity. He's seven, and loves to get into everything and anything, and sometimes plays silly pranks on people. Though his pranks might not even go over with non-Weres (a lot are tailored to scent, after all). Under the stress of suddenly being in Exsilium, he'll be carefree, cheerful and friendly.

On the other hand, at this point in time he's never been away from a family member for more than a few hours/farther than a few miles. He will be a panicked and alone, desperately trying to find someone who's family (searching and howling), or barring that, another Were/someone who'd know about Weres. Barring that, he'll find someone who makes a positive, caring impression.

Isaac will also be a lot less secretive, and won't be truly aware of the consequences of infection or telling the Were-secret.

Re: OC DESCRIPTIONS HERE

[have_hat_will_travel]

Pidonus is going to be from around ten years in her past. Given she'd only been Pidonus for two years...

Meet Riana Falconite! She's just starting to learn how to play the lute, is too young to worry about the game mechanics yet (other than that weird riddle about DC of a Spot check to observe the sun or moon), and is generally a sweet, innocent young girl and an exceptional example of humanity!

Surely she doesn't have a horrifying future that would turn her into something half of Exsilium's transports have a problem with ahead of her!!! Right?!

Obviously, she won't remember a thing.
