⇨ IIIT'S A CR MEME!
A WILD CR MEME APPEARS↴ Given that it's been a while since our last CR/plotting meme, this seemed well overdue! This post is where you talk about what you are looking for in character relationships, and then respond to other people's posts to plot! You can be as long winded or as brief if you like - as long as you communicate what you are interested in doing. New to this post is a 'Collective Objectives' section, which will be a toplevel below. This is for coordinating events or efforts that you want the input/organization of multiple characters on, making a big group log, or developing something have broader ramifications for the Carnival moving forward. There is a form provided below for your convenience, but you don't have to fill everything out! It just needs to be enough information to give your fellow players an idea of what they have to work with. CHARACTER NAME | ( journalname)Canon: (What canon are they from?) Carnival Role: (What is their job? Maybe your characters could be working together.) Length of Stay: (Are they new, a veteran, or somewhere in between?) Skills/Powers: (Self-explanatory; a concise summary of their powers and a link to their IC info page is probably more than enough. ) Routine: (Does your character have a regular schedule people can bump into them easily? A place they like to hang out? Are they a night owl or an early bird?) Current status in game: (What they've been up to recently, their mental state, and any recent important events or developments.) Any current or future plans: (This could be things that you would like to happen, or ideas that you're currently working on. Where would you like to see your character go, or are you looking for suggestions? Is there something you'd like to do at the current carnival location? Are you trying to nail some bonuses/rewards over the next month?) IC Assistance: (Do you have any specific IC goals that your character needs help with? Does your character need help with their act? Do you need someone to fill a specific role in their life?) Desired CR: (Are you most interested in seeking out positive or negative CR? Friends? Dates? New enemies? Be as specific as you can.) Shipping Preferences: (Yay or nay? Is roleplaying sexual content something you are interested in? Are you interested in one sided crushes? Let us know here.) Permissions/Opt Outs: (Please link any permissions/opt out posts, if applicable, here so other people can fill it in. You can also use this to make a note of any content/subject matter you'd prefer to opt out of yourself.) Additional Comments: (Tagging speed? Timezone woes? Funny gifs? Anything else you'd like to address.) |

Syrlya would, of course, be interested. He has a lot he can say about Tyrian magic, but mostly Mesmer magic because that's his specialty. Mesmers are illusionist mages except their illusions are tangible, and basically manipulated raw magic. His magic is largely utility, with reflections, invisibility, teleports, etc. Also lots of confusion and misdirection to people's senses. He's got some time manipulation in there but it's super low-scale and time is an illusion anyway. Mostly he just puts things on fast forward or slow-mo.
He's also basically a magical creature since it's something inherent to his actual existence, and it means that he has a natural magic ability to manipulate and sense dispositions of plant life! He's not actually well practiced in the skill to do super grand and efficient things but it's very manageable on a smaller scale.
He's willing to hear about anyone's magic, but he's most interested in the way magic actually functions in each world and really powerful, large scale magic.
AS FOR TEACHING he can't really teach the plant manipulation since it's just a racial trait, but he's completely willing to try and explain Mesmer magic! The energy used for it is technically world specific but fae magic could mimic the end result easily, and other canons that deal with raw, external magic energy might find it easier to devise a version of directly. He's more likely to come at this as working out the logistics or just providing explanations than like, dedicated tutorship.
Edit: OH YEAH also since he's mostly trained how to use his magic offensively he's totally up for magic training spars.
For OOC I think a network post + Mingle Log is probably the best for getting it jumpstarted.

It seems to be pretty compatible with Foster's magic (his magic is actually about manipulating external magics) too.
....also, maybe he could stand to get a better impression of Syr than "spider box guy they had to set on fire while he hovered impatiently behind them so they could do something actually important."

BUT YES I was actually into them talking magic shop before anyway, since Foster's all into Necromancy and Syr's from a canon where that's actually a completely accepted form of magic and, honestly, people are more wary about Mesmers than Necromancers anyway. Working out the specifics between them would be interesting since magic in Tyria is extremely direct to the source energy so needing to do all these special rituals and permissions and stuff to cast is a whole other world to him. He basically just grabs the magic and twists it to be what he wants.

One day, Syr will rise above Spider Box. One day.
