Now that you've had a week to plan, this is the official role call post for the AU. Please reply to whatever header your character is included in with a summary of their role in Portland, with your character's name in the post subject. You can just copy and paste summaries used in the plotting post if you like, though for the same of mod plotting I would ask that you name and bold any of the following in your descriptions:
Organizations: If your character is in a group or organization of any kind, please bold it! This will be important for the dispensing of IC clues and NPC attention.
NPC Connections: If your character has a powerful NPC of any kind that they are connection to, please list and bold them. The mods will be writing some of these NPCs into the metaplot, and we can't do that if we don't know they exist!
Meetup Points: If your character runs or is affiliated with anything that could be considered a supernatural hangout, it would be useful to make them easy to find, for the sakes of people who want to know what kind of places will be available in Portland for their characters to hang out.
Confirming your concepts in this post is not mandatory, but I would super appreciate anyone who does. If you do not reply to this post, your character will not be tied into the metaplot. Additionally, I will give everyone who does reply a +2 AC point bonus to their next activity check, per character they reply with.
Allen is a homeless Winter Court changeling currently aligned with the Summer Court. (He doesn't know any other, nor has he ever known his fae parent. Probably some nobody.) He keeps away from the Rose Queen.
Abandoned by the fae, he grew up in an orphanage, and from birth to the age of seven, he had been unconsciously keeping up a glamour to fit in with the other kids. When he reached the age of 8, he lost the ability to use glamour unconsciously; he began showing signs of Winter fae magic and physical attributes, such as lavender eyes, pointed ears, and blue kingfisher bird wings growing just above his hips. The director of the orphanage kicked him onto the streets out of fear and disgust, and it was the streets where he grew up.
Allen's arm is human-normal, he is lacking the scar on his left eye, and he keeps his hair short.
His abilities are water elemental magic, weak enchantments, glamour, and transfiguring into a small blue bird, a kingfisher. He weighs 1 oz and he is 6 in from head to tail. He has the fighting abilities you pick up off the streets to survive, but he goes to extreme ridiculous lengths to avoid fighting. He's a weak changeling compared to some others. His strongest ability is transfiguration. His weakest is enchantments, such as "don't look this way" charms, the closest to invisibility he can manage.
As a child thrown to the streets, he struggled all alone before finding his way to one of the Sanctuary's safe houses. He stayed there for a short while before moving on to the next one, and that went on for a few months, maximum a year, wherein he moved out to stay on the streets; he was completely paranoid and didn't trust a soul. He's come to hate being cooped up by walls, and he resents the fae that abandoned him. Angry, bitter, and defensive as hell, Allen kept to his own two feet.
Without Mana to turn him into a polite shounen hero, Allen selfishly only cares about his own interests and the interests of his people. If helping someone will put his people in danger, he won't bother. He won't do any heroics for free. He still covers up all that distrust and anger with a conman's smile, though. He has nothing against threatening to reveal changeling identities in public in order to gain a private audience for recruitment.
Sick of the lack of community and support among non-Pack members and the pompous Circle, Allen has taken it upon his own shoulders to give himself -- and everyone supernatural -- a sense of community and safety. Allen is the leader of the United Order, a support group focused on community and communication; it also doubles as a rebel group to protect against Torchlight and all enemies of the supernatural. Look here for details.
His connections are anyone affiliated with his ORGANIZATION, the Order: Helen of the Sanctuary, Pearl and anyone in her biker gang (including Rita!), Greg, and Sherlock. He'll soon be connected to the changeling network through Axel. Also, he drops by Zecora's doctor office a lot. All others are CR to come! You know who you are.
For MEET-UPS, you can find Allen at Destiny Village, where he lives, as well as the water park, harassing people outside Lambert's cat cafe, Renzo's club Crossroads, the Sanctuary as an irregular visitor and ally, and really just walking the streets anywhere. He does group meetings at the park and cafes. He'll welcome anyone walking off the streets if they can prove they're supernatural.
