As promised, here's a comprehensive list of teams going into the mutiny player plot. This post also includes a timeline of events during the course of the mutiny plot. For a reminder, we want to stress that though these teams will be taking care of much of the incidental action that the plot is structured on, these roadblocks are really only in place to facilitate CR for the community at large! So no worries if you're not on a team, there's still plenty for you to do! People are still plotting and networking together on the first post (located here) so we encourage you to check that out if you don't have plans already!

Finalized team lists )

Sorry guys, but Keith will be heading back home to Sternbild. It's been fun, but I haven't been able to get back into my groove with this game since I took a hiatus last month. Thank you so much for the memories and threads we've had.

See you around! My plurk is [plurk.com profile] joltiks if any of you want to keep in touch.

⚔ HOW'S MY DRIVING? ⚔


Welcome to Exsilium's game-wide HMD! These will now be occurring once every two months, instead of once every three.

How It Works:
The gamewide HMD is an opportunity for players to come together and bring each other feedback about one another's playing. Constructive criticism is encouraged, however what that means is that it must be constructive. If you are going to offer up criticism, we encourage that you provide suggestions to the player within your critique. We are here to improve! It is also acceptable to let someone know if you enjoy their playing, but note that unhelpful or empty responses ("Oh, I love you so much!!", "Your playing is bad and you should feel bad.") without any real substance are discouraged.

If you like what a player is doing, tell them exactly what it is and why! If you have questions about their playing, this is what this forum is for as well.
It is not mandatory, and you have no obligation to respond if you don't wish to.

Anonymous commenting is enabled for the sake of anonymous crit, and IP logging is on for the sake of continued accountability. Only moderators will see IP addresses and they will only be checked if things get out of hand. Please remember to be thoughtful and respectful in your crit-giving. Full Disclosure: The moderator team may still be given anonymous, non-IP logged criticism here at the suggestions page or their personal HMD posts.


Please fill out the form below and leave a comment with your name or handle in the subject line!

Hey y'all, this is Dog bringing in Chris Pratt from The Lookout.

Chris is a janitor with short-term memory loss who is bad with his mouth and good with a rifle.

His skills include mopping, telling stories backwards, forgetting people's names and accidentally robbing banks.

Chris doesn't deal well with change so Exsilium is going to be an exercise in keeping his shit together, and not being thrown off the moon.

At the same time I am saying goodbye to my beloved Effie Trinket. I love her so much and I might apply for her again but right now the muse is worn out and I don't feel comfortable character squatting. Thanks to everyone who was kind enough to play or make CR plans with me, and I hope to give her another chance in the future!

Anyway, I'll be looking forward to playing with you all soon!

HEY ALL, who remembers that one drunk guy? He didn't make it up to the moon base, but he's here in spirit.

Sort of.

Before everything went ka-boom, drunk guy (here out known as Sponde) gave Stephanie Brown a diamond drive containing various final thoughts, treasured memories, and etc written by Initiative employees killed in the nuke, who would like to have them back once the Transports undo the bombing and save everyone. Sort of like a personal time capsule! Because not only would they not remember the bombing or their final days once they're brought back, if the Transports do their job right, but they don't expect to be the same people when everything is restored. This is a way of carrying on who they used to be, to be given to whoever they end up being.

Also, Sponde was counting on Transports snooping through the files, and furthermore counting on the resulting guilt being a great motivator for the Transports to get around to saving everyone. Chronic alcoholics can be crafty too!

So what are these files? That's up to you! We'd like to make this a little extra curricular creative writing exercise. We're going to let players write the memoirs of Initiative employees, to be opened and read by characters on the moon base. OOCly, these will be randomly distributed throughout whoever signs up to participate. If you would like your character to receive a file, you have to write one! You can write more than one, and you don't have to have your character receive one if you just want to write some. If we end up with more memoirs than we have characters reading them, characters can receive more than one. We might even revoke the "write one to read one" rule, depending on how this goes and how many we get.

more information under here! )

GREETINGS, EVERYONE. my name is kyuu, player of evelyn samson ([personal profile] rewarded), and i'm bringing in my second character. this time, it's one space cadet of a pokemon trainer known as leaf! she's going to be brought in from post-fr/lg, and is going to be kind of bummed out about getting dragged here just as she was switching out most of her team on a pc. good thing she still has her charizard??? okay, no. charizard is a rude sassy butt.

either way, her info will be up in her journal soon and she can be found on the transport log over here! if you need to hit me up for anything, feel free to add me on plurk.

only this one is over six feet tall even when slouching

also covered in guns and grenades and other fun toys

Hello! This is LA, already here playing Caesar, and now I'm bringing in an OC from the MMO game Guild Wars 2, Rinth Ghostshot, a Charr engineer from the Iron Legion.

The Charr are basically all one giant war machine, run by martial law, and eeeeveryone is a soldier in some capacity. Still being a young-ish Charr, Rinth pretty much tries to embody a lot of the societal expectations of her kind: she's violent and ill-tempered, does not believe much in the power of the individual, and really, really does not like humans, gods, or magic much at all. On the bright side, hey, she's pretty good at making broken things work again, so there's... that.

More on her can be found on the app up in her journal or you can go poke at her over in the intro log.

and since I don't know where she's being housed yet, let me just apologize to whomever gets stuck with her well in advance. sorry. really, very sorry.

I'd hoped that canon updating would help, but it seems that it's not to be. So Nuktuk HERO OF THE SOUTH Bolin is going back home to continue making a mess of his life. Much love to everyone who has played with him during his stay here and apologies to those I made plots with. Y'all have been great.

Hello everyone! I'm back with Aurican again, and this time he has fully grown up. He's a big fella now, but nowadays he hangs around in his elf form.

I also put in a permissions post about that tricky dragonfear, but canon in general seems to be up in the air about that whole thing works (dragonfear or no dragonfear, that is the question), so I'm willing to hand wave the whole thing to make it less of a hassle.

Heeeeey did you miss me? I'm gonna try to start slowly coming off hiatus, but I'll still probably be slowish for the rest of the month because my homework be crazy, yo.

I may end up dropping some threads but if there's anything you want to continue/anything you'd like me to tag, please let me know.

This affects Elmer C. Albatross [personal profile] keep_smiling, Alucard Anselm [personal profile] notadamnvampire and Johnny D'Amico here.

Hey guys,

This is Kimmie, mun of Skyler White [personal profile] launderer and I'm bringing in Cassie Ainsworth from the British Skins, mostly to fuck with Stanley Lucerne who is the American version of her boyfriend. Haha. So if anyone knows him, she's from almost the same show.

I'm definitely looking to plot, and I'm totally late on zombies. But if you want her or want to plot my plurk is [plurk.com profile] xdombillyx.

( ´ ▽ ` )ノ meet shijima kuro'okano from nabari no ou: she likes spying on people, being cryptic and ridiculous, and concerning people by acting like a crotchety old lady despite her very young face. she doesn't like YOU, unless you're interesting and/or smell delicious, or unless she decides that she secretly does like you after all. (just like a real cat!)

i'm really looking forward to playing here and i hope we all have lots of fun together. thanks for having me! if you need to get ahold of me, i'm ridiculous moths on AIM, and i'm also at [plurk.com profile] sodapoppet, although i'm spottier on plurk.

NOT ACTUALLY THE FOOD STORAGE BOSS, BUT CLOSE

Hello Transports,

So, as per AI's post, there is something amiss in the old medical bay in the east wing that should probably be taken care of! What that thing is is a bit of a mystery, but one that can be solved. Anyone can tag into this post to explore the area, regardless of whether this thing shows up or not in their thread.

Now with more cuts )

more doctors.

so that's what i'm bringing in! hi there, it's alicia, player of belle ([personal profile] lucency), bringing in another character - julia hoffman from the dark shadows hot mess movie. quick rundown: she has an aging complex, she drinks a lot, she will be all up in your business, and she's also been stealing vampire blood for the past couple of weeks to make herself immortal. as you do.

so yeah! looking forward to getting her in the game. intro log comment up soon, and, as always, if you wanna yell at me or something, hit me up on plurk at [profile] zombiejosette! ♥

Hey!

I'm Zoki and I am not new, I play Billy ([personal profile] oncearanger), and I'm now bringing Usagi, the eponymous character of the Sailor Moon franchise. She likes sleep, eating, and video games, all things that are hard to come by on this creepy moon base.

Usagi's from the end of the Dark Kingdom arc, just after wishing on her crystal for everyone to be revived in a world where they could be free and happy. So she doesn't remember being Sailor Moon or learning to be brave. That's why she's totally running scared at first! But her transformation compact is her weapon and there are monsters to fight, so she will remember.

Her intro log comment is here, and I'll be throwing her into the fighting sometime soon.

ohai.

I am tegu and I am a very newmeats who comes bringing one Warrior of Light from Dissidia Final Fantasy aka "that one final fantasy crossover fighting game that makes no sense but who cares I can finally pit cloud against squall and so forth." Warrior of Light is basically made up for Dissidia as he is supposed to be from FF1 but thus he had no original characterization as a blank slate protagonist from a kinder, gentler time when the world was more accepting of such things in jrpgs (i.e. 1987) and so the characterization they made up for him was "king of all linefaces." yup. he's a near-complete amnesiac human experiment test tube failure thing too but don't worry he's high-functioning.

ANYHOW I am very happy to be here! and this would be the part where I would put a cute gif if there were gifs of him being cute rather than being a) badass or b) ~*~poignantly confused~*~ or c) a fucking supermodel SO. bai see you ingame o/
