au plotting post

Welcome to the Duocaeli's Plotting Post for OFFline world AUs! Rather than doing monthly installments to play with this optional mechanic, we've decided to use this permanently installed post for players to come in and engage with our AU mechanic as they please.

How does the AU mechanic work?
Upon arriving in the OFF world of Crane City, characters will find themselves encountering NPC residents and others who react to them as familiar citizens, friends, and family. While not necessary, there is an optional mechanic for characters to also suddenly regain memories of a life they had in Crane City, whether it be an entire lifetime or as someone who moved in and took up residence later on. However, all characters will intrinsically know that the Alternative Universe memories they have of the OFF world aren't their real memories.

In addition, while characters may have OFFline friends or family resemble canon characters that can be apped, they must also retain some differences. This is to allow for creative freedom for characters being apped in.

OOCly, Duocaeli puts a focus on canon personalities and histories of characters, but we wanted to have the optional AU mechanic for those who wanted to play with it! If you don't want to opt in, there is no requirement to have a top-level or entry in this page. If you would like to engage, please follow our example for organization's sake.

This AU Plotting Post will be linked on every monthly mod post as a reminder for those who would like to engage in the optional AU mechanic.

AU Occupation: Quick snapshot of what your character does.
AU Background: This can be as detailed or barebones as you want!
Looking For: Are there any particular kinds of AU CR that you'd like for your character? Childhood friends? Bitter academic rivals? It may also help to include your character's attitude on the AU memories - do they find them confusing and want to embrace them? Or will they ignore them to the best of their ability?

While not necessary, mods also encourage having a FROZEN "Notes" comment reply to your own top-level that lets you edit and include new AU details as you plot!

BUZEN GOU

[hasteful]

Character Name: Buzen Gou ( permissions )
Canon: Touken Ranbu
AU Occupation: street racer, mechanic and local errand boy when he needs money
AU Background:
✧ everyone's boyfriend buzen gou at your service, he's (mumbles in mid 20's) years old
✧ it's hard for me to pretend that i have thoughts besides King of the Street Races that happen in the middle of the night, because i think he deserves his tokyo drift destiny
✧ literally just race him. on anything. cars, motorcycles, horses, boats, he can and will drive and ride anything
✧ has a family situation! doesn't talk about it :) but he's from out of town for sure, even though he's been in Crane City for the past couple years
✧ very bad with finances, but he's won a lot of fast cars so what more could a man want
✧ probably went to college very casually before ultimately deciding that it wasn't for him and preferred to take up the car trade anyway
✧ also happy to work part-time literally anywhere. he's probably picked up a lot of random work ranging from petsitting, modeling, cafe stuff, life coach or just regular fitness coach, probably very jack of all trades and master of none vibes

Looking For:
✧ race him, please race him, any kind of rival or jock buddy would absolutely be so easy for him to love and adore
✧ i think it'd be so funny if he was someone's life and fitness coach and generally just peptalked them all day every day
✧ hire him! in general! if you needed any random errand done, buzen would've done it, and then his finances would be bad because he'd forget to charge once you're friends :') he would just start doing everything for free
✧ old college buddies before he stopped going..... he needed a tutor so bad. he's so stupid.
✧ previous relationships or situationships.... let "everyone's boyfriend buzen" be real.... it's probably more casual relationships than anything, and also i make everyone else come up with reasons why they broke up with buzen because he would just never break up with someone,,

✦ as for how he'd treat the AU memories, he doesn't believe in them! LMFAOASDLKFH he thinks they're funny little stories, but they have nothing to do with him. that said, buzen is also an idiot and his behavior will naturally be altered by his memories whether he is aware of it or not (i.e. touchier with old flames, just acting more familiarly regardless,)

matsui gou

[sanguinary]

Player Name: aki!
Player Contact: pm or ikedaya hell yea

Character Name: Matsui Gou
Canon: Touken Ranbu
AU Occupation: Phlebologist or something else highly medical and blood-specific because i think that's hilarious personally
AU Background: i genuinely have not thought about this at all girl help.
• HE'S CATHOLIC?? like sunday catholic. not catholic enough for it to matter in any real way but he wears a rosary about it
• went to medical school! he has a fascination with blood for probably tragic reasons that he doesn't talk about but it's fine because they're normal person levels of tragic and not sword levels
• is also from out of town but it's fine because he will truly just vibe anywhere
• home situation is a mystery, does even he know, wild, what's happening out here

Looking For: the usual not at all helpful I WILL TAKE ANYONE AND ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING because listen.. i will...... but!! more specifically:
• family?! i have literally nothing planned for him so far so if anyone wants a brother/uncle/cousin/whatever, i throw u this fucker
• fellow medschool students! who was with him while studying for 29 straight hours for an exam, living solely off of trix and coffee grounds... they've been through the trenches
• colleagues! who is out here with him cursing anyone who says the word quiet while in the waiting room
• fwiends... air him out over the weekends or he'll never leave his study and start growing mushrooms
• Enemies In Love i guess if ur character dated buzen help
• idk sunday church friends???? HELP

re: how he'd treat his au memories, he is very much like buzen and also doesn't believe that they're real! but since he's more self-aware and also running faster in this one single matter he's actively avoiding treating people any differently to the degree that he's capable of...help

notes!

• he was pining for buzen for like 10 years and then they got engaged in like 2 weeks :amen: this is all i got so far help me lorde

Roland Glenbrook

[duskspear]

Character Name: Roland Glenbrook
Canon: Triangle Strategy
AU Occupation: Social worker for maximum irony
AU Background: A native denizen of Crane City and the eldest child of two to a teacher father and a horticultural therapist mother. Cheerful and aspirational, he's an active member of the community and the friendly neighbor who's happy to reach out when he isn't busy spoiling his little brother.
Looking For: Roland's attitude toward the memories is one of wary reluctance. He doesn't accept them as his reality, but he plays along with those who seemingly recognize him lest he cause unintentional damage somewhere. Fabricated or not, he's sympathetic toward the people who've unknowingly lost the actual person whose memories he's inherited.

• Friends from childhood or recent stages of life like university. Is your character shy? Roland would've approached them first. He's more of a jock than a nerd, but he appreciates everyone.
  
• Colleagues in professional and/or volunteer work, just so this aspect of their lives doesn't exist in a vacuum.
  
• Anything and everything to flavor CR. It can be something small or whacky like the one (1) time your character ran him over on a bicycle. Conversely, I'm open to discussion on more impactful relationships (e.g., sweethearts). Hit me up!

Fukawa Toko/Genocider Syo | Danganronpa

[janescayre]

Player Name: Kabby
Player Contact: PMs/Kabby#3489

Character Name: Fukawa Toko/Genocider Syo
Canon: Danganronpa
AU Occupation: On the meme I had Syo down as a loan shark enforcer just for giggles, but perhaps that is too wacky to start with? Debating keeping that as Syo's gig on the down low while Fukawa has no idea, toiling away in the daylight as a disrespected intern at a prestigious publishing company. Or worse, she's making ends meet as an assistant makeup artist. Being around hotter women all day, touching their perfect faces...horrific.
AU Background: - Definitely still a writer, though without her canon prestige or fame. Let's say she has a bajillion kudos on Ao3 and is mortified that her AU self was writing trashy fanfiction this whole time, but then gets super into it and starts flame wars with competing ships.
- Family wise, she is half-siblings with Dimitri. Do not ask how that works. I haven't got any family plans beyond that and would want to consult with Nu before deciding what their parents are like, since her canon parents were pretty 😬😬😬 Let's just say there is a reason she is the way she is
- Her split-personality is still mostly a secret, though a less urgent one to keep since there's no body count this time. Perhaps if her parents are nice this time, they are gently suggesting therapy? Very, very gently.
- Syo has mostly been a nocturnal presence, sometimes Fukawa's bed will be empty and her window left suspiciously open. Nobody knows where she goes or what she does. Could she be Spider-Man????
- She is still a deeply unpleasant, paranoid, jealous wreck who falls for boys who hate her, but with a better safety net around she hasn't resorted to her former desperate extremes
- Freshly graduated! 19 and ready to enter higher learning and the job market! Likely shopping for college options. Perhaps you remember her as the girl who got kicked out the lit club for bitching out the other members and making their supervisor cry.
- I'm winging this tbh, I'm unsure of what else to put

Looking For: - Rivals! If you breathe Fukawa hates you.
- Unless you're a princely bishounen type, esp if you disrespect her. Then she has a massive crush on you.
- That said she's inevitably going to find some of these pretty boys to be a complete disappointment, so that's fun too.
- Go-getters or strong-minded protag types who wormed their way into her heart. She's allowed to have friends in the AU.
- Other family/family friends? Cousins?
- Fellow Ao3 writers/readers, perhaps people to get into fights with
- galpals ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
- boypals?????
- horrible miscreants who enjoy Syo's horrible company!
- Idiots who Syo can bully/manhandle/make odd-couple friendships with
- Bad influences and good influences
- is anyone even senpai aged here? Mature folks of all stripes are most welcome!
- Fukawa and Syo are both trying to lay low and reform after a bad incident in Nightfell. If you have ideas on how to help or make it even more difficult — say any kind of past run-in with AU Syo that could be held over both girls heads — I'm open to discussing it! But I'm also holding the right to veto it because this can always be dicey territory, where one party winds up being a scapegoat or made to be a bigger bad guy than they agreed to, so please keep that in mind!
- ?????
- Forced makeover montage?
- i'm tired, I'm sure I'll think of something brilliant when it's far too late

Notes! (pls do not respond) (CW: child abuse mention)

[janescayre]

- she sucks
- Lived with her birth father and his new wife until she was fifteen, they were abusive/neglectful in much the same vein as her canon family
- Moved in with her birth mother and her half brother Dimitri thereafter, slowly regains #HOPE
- Instead of serial killing Syo's gotten involved in organized crime, why not. She's fully an enforcer for a loan shark now, possibly has mob ties. Fukawa doesn't know about any of this, she just wakes up in her bed and sometimes finds a fat stack of cash?? how did that get there
- sadly this may mean murder is still on the table...oof...
- has definitely been bullied and bullied hard

FELIX HUGO FRALDARIUS

[boarwitness]

Character Name: Felix Hugo Fraldarius
Canon: Fire Emblem: Three Houses
AU Occupation: cafe barista! probably the shift manager, despite moaning about the responsibility, he's actually super good at it? his coffee is also pretty good? so what's with his terrible customer service attitude?? is he writing everyone's names wrong on the cups on purpose??? (yes)

info post is here!

AU Background:

• grew up in a big, kind, loving and supportive family—truly good parents, cooperative siblings, extended family always over and hanging out in the big family house. the kind of family that adopts other kids in the neighborhood and always has a place for a surprise visitor at dinner.
  
• and they all fawn over felix, the youngest sibling, who was really the ultimate youngest sib as a child, cute as a button and crying all the time, always wanting to play the games with everyone else, regardless of what it was. he had no real pressures on him, and grew up with a lot of friends of different ages, thanks to cousins and older sibling friends coming over too.
  
• "do you have games on your phone" kid
  
• hit puberty like a truck, and started receding into a bit of a misanthropic state, during which he spent a lot of time on /r/teenagers. still came down to dinner every night though (parents love too strong...)
  
• got really into minecraft, fortnite, overwatch, apex legends, etc, and developed a small streaming following in his early teens. had a dream of going esports pro for a while, but ultimately decided it was stupid. has a top of the line gaming rig and a full streamer setup (his parents bought it for him to support his passions). has recently started dabbling in mmorpgs. still makes decent pocket money off his game stream ad revenue, but not enough to live on.
  
• track team throughout middle school, high school, and varsity. family is always there in some capacity to cheer him on. usually one of the fastest runners on the team, unless he's slacking to stream more. goes for a run every morning, even now that he's graduated university.
  
• liberal arts major at a relatively well-known university, which he got into on a sports track scholarship. kinda just coasted through the classes as his attention was mostly on games and running. graduated in a "Cs get degrees" kind of way.
  
• has a collection of game sword replicas mounted on his wall behind his streamer setup.
  
• couldn't get a degree-related job out of university, so took a shift at a local coffee shop, and found that it suited his schedule well, and hasn't looked back since. only recently promoted to his managerial position, which he accepted begrudgingly. (new shifts sometime eat into raids a little...)

Looking For:

• Felix will be utterly perplexed by the AU memories, but ultimately any involvement in his AU life will give people a kind of wedge into worming their way into felix's heart, even if it was an antagonistic relationship. the sort of "oh we're both in this together" mentality counts for something!!! for all AU memories, he'll definitely unconsciously be affected by them, even if he wants to push them away. soft memories will definitely unlock a softer felix... how rare...
  
• Family! come be one of felix's older siblings, uncles, aunts, cousins... parents?! I'm open to anything. keep in mind if you take on an older sibling role, this will prime you for a lot of messy felix feelings. :') do it do it doit
  
• Childhood friends in general! older sibling's friends, kids in the neighborhood, school relations! he went to public school, maybe you bullied him??
  
• SITUATIONSHIPS! PLEASE have felix have accidentally said something insanely flippant yet sweet off the cuff, leading your character to believe that maybe... they were a thing? messy! nobody acknowledged it! maybe they just made out at a party and never talked again. or talked every day!?
  
• RELATIONSHIPS!!! they WERE a thing!!! AU felix had incredible accidental game, and dated throughout schooling. were they childhood sweethearts? varsity dating? the only stipulation i have here is that they already broke up.
  
• Track team buddies/rivals! would love for felix to have his sports anime besties and enemies on track team. enemies to lovers arc......???
  
• Streaming/online buddies/rivals! did they play games online together, and met once or twice? maybe they collabed on a stream? maybe they still talk in a chat server and meet up to talk about game balancing. or maybe they have a super antagonistic relationship and do raids on each other's streams...
  
• Coffee shop patrons! you come here every day and he still spells your name wrong on the cup. once you saw him twitch a smile about it and you've been mad ever since.
  
• Coworkers! come work in the st*rbucks coffee mines or wherever he's at!

Dimitri

[paraselenes]

Character Name: Dimitri Alexandre Blaiddyd, imagine if i nerfed his normie name. Dimitri Alexander Bailey
Canon: Fire Emblem: Three Houses/Hopes
AU Occupation: college student, does odd jobs for too little pay. i might have him do volunteer work at the fire department because he'd die, which is my dream

AU Background: i'm going to wing details of this as i go! but here's my general idea so far:

• he's half-siblings with toko because it's peak physical comedy. they share a mother with the weakest genes in the world, which was basically his canon mom situation anyway
  
• his upbringing was... pretty normal! his middle-class parents are nice and alive! they invite people over for dinner and have hallmark decorations for holidays. he spent a lot of his life outside of crane city (some sort of canada expy) and isn't as acclimated to the city, but went to boarding school on and off and attends uni here now, for people who want the School Connections
  
• here on a sports scholarship for sure. big jock energy. look at this man, he played lacrosse at some point, definitely does a different full contact sport per season and was captain of something or other. tried rotc but it wasn't his schtick. au where he isn't a soldier, babey
  
• studying biology because his momma is sickly, but he's honestly better at the humanities
  
• very boy next door energy, like if the high school quarterback were an introvert. you can probably meet him at volunteer events. did he start volunteering because he had a stint in juvie or something for a hot second? who can say
  
• probably also went to church, i hate fire emblem. why are there so many catholics here

Looking For:

• the stock anything and everything! i went with a more "happy" au direction but i'm very flexible
  
• childhood friends... or rivals! maybe they did or didn't get along at boarding school or were roommates. uni connections, teachers, tutors, etc are good too!
  
• he does a lot of odd work and volunteering for whoever, wherever, so they can have dressed up as bunny mascots on new years, etc
  
• honestly feel free to ask for things more substantial like being au family, exes (lol), and what have you! i'm open to anything and love confusing family units
  
• you could come up to me and be like, hey nu, what if X was there the one time dimitri did shrooms and thought he was dead, and i'd say sure, go for it

au memory outlook: practically, he won't believe this is "real." that said, he would treat the people in his au life as Real People, and will definitely have trouble sorting out how much better he has it here than in canon, so he'll be affected by what memories he has!

Izuku Midoriya / My Hero Academia

[defendure]

Player Name: Maggie
Player Contact: PM works but please feel free to add me on plurk roseburst or discord Maggie#0451! I am not the most prolific plurker but I do read and comment around and will usually remember to plurk any toplevels I make.

Character Name: Izuku Midoriya, here is his game info post & his general permissions!
Canon: My Hero Academia
AU Occupation: A high school student with a part time job. Or multiple part time jobs. He needs a lot of income to spend wildly on a bunch of anime merchandise, as you do.
AU Background:

Izuku's attitude towards AU memories will be baffled and somewhere between neutral and positive! He'll think of them as "not real" on the whole despite having the mental experience of living them, but he's also too nice to really truly treat people he remembers, fake or not, as not real or important. If someone is important to him in fake AU land he will treat them as real important, because that's how he is as person.

🐇 I never have any idea what I'm doing but in any incarnation Izuku is a giant nerd so we're keeping it that way, please and thank you. He was a nerd as a child and now he is a nerd as a teenager. Less of a bullied kid since not being born with superpowers is normal in the OFF?? Go team.
🐇 Works multiple part time jobs in order to spend exorbitant amounts of money on his hobbies (merchandise collecting mainly). These include random seasonal work, tutoring, and actual shifts. A social life comes second to this nonsense.
🐇 Some of the money is also being put into a fund for college and actual practical things. He's not spending ALL his income on nerd stuff. Just a dumb percentage of it.
🐇 Works very hard in school for good grades and obsesses over any less than perfect marks for way too long after they happen. He makes elaborate study schedules for himself and occasionally forgets things like "sleep" and "eating real food" should be inserted.
🐇 Similarly he sometimes schedules way too much part time work for himself, it's fine.
🐇 Goes on daily runs! Tries to stay active.

Looking For:

🐇 Classmates for whatever teens might be around? I'd love childhood friends. He's not the bitter academic rival type but he's an enthusiastic academic rival who will sincerely congratulate you when you best him as he's the opposite of a sore loser. Which may be worse for some people?
🐇 Part-time job coworkers or bosses? If you need a random teen who will diligently do odd tasks or general work for you, Izuku is your guy.
🐇 People he runs into when running? Make it a social hobby?
🐇 Anyone into [ imaginary Duocaeli anime and sci fi series ] because Izuku can be into several series and probably spends way too much time blogging detailed analysis of his thoughts on them. If you want to be into something together we can make up an elaborate fake anime soap opera. I live for that sort of idiocy.
🐇 I'd like family members if anyone would like this nerd to somehow be related to them?

Notes

[defendure]

🐇 Hibiki (wingsongs) is his older cousin. They like to fan sentai shows together, like nerds.
🐇 Works at Kaito's (nagano) ramen stand part time! They also like to nerd out about sentai shows. Everyone here is a nerd!
🐇 Childhood friends with (humblepie). They also go running together, track life.
🐇 A fan of Felix's (boarwitness) Minecraft streams since way back. Felix is also track-senpai and runs a coffee shop where Izuku works one of his many part time gigs. Sleep is for never.

traveler (lumine) / genshin impact

[unalign]

Player Name: sele
Player Contact: pm or inteyvat

Character Name: Traveler — Lumine (permissions is here)
Canon: Genshin Impact
AU Occupation: i want to be a gremlin and say she's a vtuber/esports player (except no one knows this?? maybe someone, like 1 or 2 people?? because she tries to keep this under wraps)
AU Background:
— parents are archaeologists and they travel the world, so she's an only child because no time to make more babies.
— but she still feels like something's missing a.k.a. her other half, so she knows how to play on her own as a kid but also craves that kind of connection with someone.
— lived in Crane City when she was a young'in but because of her mom and dad, she had to go travel the world with them.
— she was a student (still is in uni??) who does remote studying because she's always on the go, so people might know her name but not her face. only settled back down in Crane City when uni finally started because moving around sucks when you have a thesis to write and defend.
— studying archaeology too because it'll let her travel. also parents are both archaeologists, she likes history and ruins and rolling around in the dirt ... yup.
— wears white like a boss and never, ever gets it dirty. end of the day, the white dress she's still wearing is white.
— oh, and her gamertag is AbyssPrincess and her vtuber model is ike eveland with long blond hair.

that's all i can think of atm

Looking For:
— Lumine would find this all disconcerting because of her multitude of memories from different worlds and now this. trust level in this world is close zero because how dare they make her feel like Aether doesn't exist. she'll probably do the motions of her fake self and won't do stupid things like pick fights, but will have questions about it including the lack of a brother in this world.
— she's just returned to Crane City (like maybe a few years ago), so childhood friends y/n?? i'll-marry-you-when-we-grow-up playground confessions?? did she punch your character when they were young and your character never moved on from it? did she protect them from bullies? Lumine had long hair before, which she cut short because being under the sun all day is stressful and hot and not at all like angelina jolie's tomb raider.
— brother-figure? big brother-figure? younger brother-figure? she just wants her twin back ...
— people who know her AbyssPrincess persona in the vtubing world/games she plays in? i'll have to figure out what games she plays, ah. oh, but she won't reveal it off the bat but she'd be like "lel, i see" if she finds them out
— Nightfell crau? Nightfell crau
— i honestly don't know what else to look for, hm

notes

[unalign]

— childhood friends with hibiki!! third gremlin has arrived, woo
— saved childe from a bunch of guys during a fight. is currently the subject of his stalkerish tendencies ...
— friends with ruby when they were kids! used to defend ruby from her bullies ... but ah, she might've added to her abandonment issues??? sorry ruby ;;
— felix ........................................... rival egamer? childhood friends she accidentally punched in the face?
— kaveh, mistaken to be her brother but no not really. just because they have blond hair doesn't mean they're siblings. sometimes pays for his tab at the bar ... pls man
— bricks, casually but not really dating. friends sometimes hang out but it's still not dating.

Bakugō Katsuki 💥 Boku no Hero Academia

[blastedass]

Player Name: StarSeed
Player Contact: PM is the most optimal way to get in touch. I have a discord and plurk here, but I'm more active on discord than plurk.

Character Name: Bakugō Katsuki (last name, first name)
Character Canon: My Hero Academia (general wiki and fandom wiki)
Character Info: You can find his game information here (more details in his journal) and his permissions here (both OOC & IC).

AU Occupation: High school student who works hard at his studies and athletics in order to prepare himself for college and a future career, likely in law enforcement. What free time he has is spent doing things that further those ambitions, ranging from hobbies to part-time jobs. And occasionally has fun along the way.

AU Background: Details below.

Bakugo's general attitude towards his AU memories is testy and negative, though more of annoyance rather than anger. While he acknowledges they're in his head, he's too aware that they're false to put a massive amount of importance on them. He tries to keep his "canon" history and AU memories separate. While Bakugo can work with those memories as "default" in his responses, he's quick to point out "you know that's not real" when it comes to things that are embarrassing, piss him off, or otherwise make life troublesome. Otherwise tries to ignore them.

Side Note: Just because you're a friend, family member, classmate, or whatever other bond of Bakugo's in the AU memories doesn't mean you're spared his abrasive attitude!

💥 Bakugo grew up an only child. As his parents work quite successfully in the fashion industry (beauty and marketing), he's lived a relatively upper-mid class life, though his mother's explosive personality means he was disciplined enough to become a competent young man. Spent a lot of his early childhood with his best friend, Midoriya Izuku. Due to Quirks (superpowers) not being a thing in the AU life, he and Midoriya never had their massive falling out and he stayed friends with him even into their teenage years. They still have an intense rivalry with each other.

💥 As in canon, being born a natural genius/talent meant that Bakugo excelled at whatever he put his hands to. He gets amazing grades in his classes, regularly competes at different sports, and entertains a number of hobbies or activities. However, many of those were short-lived before he moved on to something else more interesting. This leaves him with a wealth of experience and skills, so don't be surprised if he shows up and is able to do great at whatever's going on. Yes, he's that kind of annoying guy. It's partially why he still managed to develope his massive ego and arrogance.

💥 Currently Bakugo employs most of his time focusing on his studies and athletics, gunning for academics and sports scholarships so he has options when aiming for college. He's notoriously responsible despite his delinquent attitude, so friends that want to smoke, drink, cheat, cut class, etc. won't make it far with him. He's the guy had has his schedules planned out and memorized, sticks to them like a stubborn bull, and dismisses anything he doesn't consider worth his time or effort. Doesn't want to mess up his record. Expect him to set aside hours for studying, go to bed at decent times, get up early for morning exercise routines, and review notes.

💥 Has had a life-long interest (obsession) with comic books and action series and is quite the closeted nerd about them. Bakugo uses the term "expert" or "collector" when it comes to these hobbies and refuses to admit his nerdy side. He'll get into arguments about the fandoms he's into and knows both trivia and merchandise statistics to an eyebrow-raising degree. Used to dream of becoming a superhero, but is currently thinking about a future in law enforcement. Like a police officer or something, though the option to become a sports star is also possible.

💥 Bakugo also grew up with an interest in explosions, be they from items like grenades or dynamite, or chemical reactions like nitroglycerine, so he has knowledge of military, demolition, and chemical explosives. He's attended building demolitions and structure collapses for both entertainment and studying. While he's not a pyromaniac or mad bomber, he certainly enjoys the power and sight of explosions.

💥 Katsuki's nickname "Kacchan" was given to him by his childhood friends in canon. Similarly, anyone who grew up with Katsuki during his childhood in the OFF world AU is welcome to call him "Kacchan" as well. Everyone else gets to call him "Bakugo" after meeting him. He uses "Dynamight" as his online handle for various websites. Like a nerd.

Looking For: Details below.

💥 Starting out with childhood friends for this dumpster fire. As a little squirt, Bakugo certainly was a lot friendlier than he is now. People who befriended him in his youth likely know more about him than other people who came later in life. He'll expect his friends to recognize his drive and behavior, so don't go dragging him down, yo. Could be friends from "day 1" till now, or even someone he's lost touch and reunited with during school. He's gruff and not afraid to say hard truths, but for people Bakugo does consider friends, he's a strong ally and no-nonsense companion.

💥 Wanna be a classmate or teammate instead? Bakugo as a classmate is more likely to ignore you, but he still considers everyone in the same class as him a rival for top spot. Friend classmates might be able to get tutoring lessons and assignment team-ups out of him, though he'll couch that in "don't want you to suck cause that'll look like i suck" excuses. Bakugo as a teammate is pretty intense, as he expects his teammates to both follow his orders (cause he's the captain all the time) and hold themselves to the same high standards he does. That said, he's mature(d) enough to realize the value of teammates and will protect/defend/cooperate with his team to make sure victory is completely assured with no doubt in mind. Now, if you wanna be rivals, prepare for the fight of your life.

💥 Hobby partners! Don't call him a nerd and come enjoy nerdy things with him. When he's not studying or training, Bakugo can be cajoled into hitting the arcade or going on outings or talking about those nerdy interests of his. Comic books, heroes, action series, he's the guy that'll attend Comic Con with a hat over his head and look cool and awesome, but won't admit to being super excited or anything. Or maybe you wanna be partners in his more active exercises, like running, rock wall climbing, surfing, martial arts, or whatever other activity you think might be interesting! Of course, if you want to blow something up with him... legally. Could even talk him into a part-time job or something?

💥 When it comes to family members, I'll keep it to cousins at closest, unless you're old enough to be an aunt, uncle, etc. Not sure you wanna be related to this role model terror, but hey you do you! And I'm also down for negative relationships, such as bad rivals, childhood enemies, or even something dramatic like criminal run-ins. Certainly would make interactions in the future weird, but that's another element of fun!

Other Notes: I'll have a comment below for edits or addendums to the above ideas.

Kaveh | Genshin Impact

[ohthehumanities]

Character Name: Kaveh GenshinImpact...... info post is here though I need to update it
Canon: Genshin Impact
AU Occupation: he is an architect! "Wow pixi so creative" I know, thanks. I'm thinking he's head architect of his company Paradisaea (I know even more creative wow amazing) but he also does DuoTok influencer videos that are supposedly about architecture but like, nobody watches them for the windows on the building, y'know
AU Background: I'll be honest I barely even thought about this so let's do this RIGHT NOW all of this is subject to change as we plot stuff!!

- only child, mom was an interior designer and dad was an astronomer; they died when he was young (pensive)
- lived with a distant relative after that but never really integrated into the family and threw himself into art and school
- graduated early and with honors but was crushed into paste by the rigors of academia and all his clashes with intellectual and artistic elitism
- started his own design studio out of sheer spite and determination!! crushed himself into even worse paste to accomplish it but by god did he do it!!!
- may or may not have a couch in his office that he sleeps on more often than not. does he have a house? who's to say
- dabbles in tech and engineering like a fucking nerd
- "I'm not like other stem majors. I'm humanities passing" (he wouldn't say that in these words but that's the vibe tbh)
- he's not religious but he respects people who are as long as you're not an obnoxious asshole about it
- he has a pet bird. It's a cockatoo that's an enormous menace and bites him all the time and kaveh hates it but would die for it at the same time
- he also likes plants!!!! ara may or may not be bringing me a florist cousin we will see
- oh yes and he definitely goes out drinking for funsies which he probably can't afford but it's fine


Looking For: This is my first time properly playing Kaveh so I'm a little nervous but!! I would truly love all kinds of stuff /o/ PARTICULARLY:

- Friends!! From school or through hobbies (plants/bars/nerd stuff/whatever). He's a social guy who really likes bonding with people so it's easy for him to have a lot of friends. He also goes way out of his way to help other people (even if it's detrimental to himself) so that's another opening for CR hehe
- Business partners!! Kaveh's pretty picky about who he does business with because he won't compromise on quality but there is definitely room for that
- RIVALS........... school rivals or just like. Kaveh is very righteous and loudly opinionated so he definitely gets into passionate arguments in person or online if someone clashes with his beliefs, especially re: the inherent goodness of people or the value of helping others
- Genshin!Kaveh will definitely be unsettled by the AU memories and this whole thing because it's not something he's used to so it's FUCKIN WEIRD... HE WASN'T EVEN AROUND FOR GENSHIN-BRAND MIND FUCKERY so he's really out of his depth here. But he would be happy to meet and bond with people he already has bonds with via AU!! He will also like. Be willing to give people he has negative AU cr with a second chance just in case their AU selves got off on the wrong foot or whatever and I think it would be funny if they clashed spectacularly all over again and he's just like "never mind I do hate that person" lmfskjdhgjk

PINOCCHIO | DIMENSION 20: NEVERAFTER

[bubblegumwhisky]

Player Name: Kabby
Player Contact: PMs/cornonthekobb

Character Name: Pinocchio
Canon: Dimension 20: Neverafter
AU Occupation: he's a child, he's in school :\
AU Background: I have not thought particularly hard about this part because when you're but a wee lad there's only so much backstory you can have.

I'm having him be an orphan in the foster care system. No one knows who his real parents are or how he came to be, he's still a wooden puppet in Crane City 8( What a mystery! He's definitely gotten a history of acting up and has disappeared more than once, having to be rescued out of less-than-ideal situations. Perhaps he literally ran away to join the circus at some point ala his "I'VE GOT NO STRINGS~" phase, perhaps there was an equivalent of Toy Island...unsure what that could be without going darker than i'm willing to, but anyway

he's a little punk in canon and he's a little punk in the AU. He's bounced around from home to home and now he's just kicking it at Dodo house, I guess? He tries sometimes in school and other times he just gives up in frustration. Pretty average student, most likely the class clown, runs amok in the streets, will endure no supervision.

Don't worry you're not responsible for him, just fish him out of a manhole if he's fallen down one and be on your way.

Looking For: NO PARENTS, sorry. But he will take casual mentor types! Pinocchio will materialize by your ankles and expect to be entertained, or maybe he'll just fucking torment you if you're bullyable.
- FRIENDS. I know he is a baby next to y'all but his regular friend group is multi-gen, he's game to level with you. Also he's quite sweet if you get to know him
- OTHER MISCREANTS. Let's get into some shit, were you someone that led him astray before? it's very easy to do, he's dumb and devious
- ??? I'm really just here to wing it fellas.

AU Occupation: half time university special collections archivist, half time freelance consultant, full time devil's advocate (punches him)
AU Background: i barely thought about this so get ready for this to be inaccurate an hour from now skdfjskld

🌱 reaction to au memories: he will try to figure out why tf this happened, but overall if it doesn't hurt him or intrude on his life then he'll roll with it while he investigates
🌱 family: orphaned, no siblings, raised by grandma who passed when he got into college
🌱 money: rich kid through his family inheritance
🌱 sexuality: ace and he's the worst date ever
🌱 schooling: master's in linguistics, minor in archaeology, working on phd in linguistics (first year? second year?)

🌱 likes: listening to music, comfy chairs, quiet places to read, working by his own schedule, debating, napping, meat?, skipping leg day, being a coffee and beer bro :/
🌱 dislikes: noise, being in the rain, working overtime, useless tasks and paperwork, being bothered outside of work hours

Looking For:

people who are genki... maybe university students?
bookstore owners
fellow fans of his fav bands
distant relatives or cousins
wise/smart elders that he can respect
coworkers/other university staff

meryl stryfe | trigun stampede

[petitejournalism]

Character Name: Meryl Stryfe / info/permissions here!
Canon: Trigun Stampede
AU Occupation: A journalist! Who is on a little bit of thin ice because she keeps sticking her nose where it doesn't belong and finding stories she can't write about due to danger of retaliation... Don't worry about it.
AU Background:
✏️Meryl has a single father, Robert, who is definitely not Roberto but has a lot in common with him.
✏️She got her love of journalism from him and looks up to him despite having to constantly remind him to behave himself.
✏️Led a pretty normal, top-of-her-class life being the Class President in high school, graduating at the top there, and then graduating at the top again after studying journalism in college. She put a wild amount of time into studying which led to a lack of social life outside of her small clique of friends, and some naivety about the world outside of textbooks.
✏️She got a job in journalism after graduating and often gets herself in trouble because of it — she's always looking for the biggest stories and those tend to be in dangerous places with powerful people.
✏️She has a habit of following trails into the Underworld and either almost getting herself killed or having to make deals that she won't write stories about it to keep herself or family safe.
✏️Her job is on thin ice due to the lack of stories she can write as a result of all that, so she's normally given smaller pieces like sports games or gossip columns — things they can trust her to write and finish. Doesn't stop her from sticking her nose where it doesn't belong, though. She'll get the story of the century yet!
✏️There are some old, old videos of her as a pre-teen on not!Youtube of her practicing being a reporter behind the news desk, reporting on kid stuff. She's somehow managed to get herself locked out of the account and can't delete them, so she just hopes no one finds them. But they're there — she used her real name thinking it'd be useful for her resume someday, so they're not hard to find.
✏️She has some amateur photography pictures of flowers on some stock photo sites, as a small side hobby that she figures can help her photography skills for journalism.

Looking For: Meryl is 50/50 on these memories. On the one hand, they have quite a bit in common with her real life, in terms of academia and journalism. It's also fascinating to her to know how she could've grown up on Earth. It's hard to ignore her curiosity there. On the other hand, she's kind of trying to avoid them because of the way her fake dad reminds her of Roberto, and that's still an incredibly fresh wound. It's also just weird and invasive to have memories that aren't necessarily hers, and it's confusing and hard to deal with.

✏️Academic rivals would be nice for her to have! Surely she was constantly keeping up with who was getting what scores and who she should look out for her on her journey to be The Best in her class.
✏️People who tried to approach her in school and got ghosted in favor of studying instead??
✏️Those who exist in shady areas of the world for her to accidentally get herself into trouble with, or who at least know about her from all the stumbling into things she does. Maybe you even secretly try to keep people from killing her!
✏️Anyone else who might have interactions with journalists, she'd want to keep up on anyone important, or might end up getting to write a story on you! Or maybe you're also in her line of work, or adjacent to it!
✏️People who've found her embarrassing childhood videos and recognize her, or have used her stock images for things...
✏️She's an active person so there's likely a reason for her to run into just about anyone, so if you have any other ideas, go for it! I'm always open for both positive and negative relationships!

[nascens]

Character Name: Scaramouche
Canon: Genshin Impact
AU Occupation: Recently graduated nurse at the same hospital Matsui works (worked????? his ass is probably long since fired) at because i'm committing to the bit and having any character i app here work at the same hospital
AU Background: SHOWS UP WITH ANOTHER CHARACTER AND STILL PUTS NO THOUGHT INTO AU
• Estranged from his family and does not talk about them! What did they do? What were they like?? A mystery.
• Not a local and a relatively recent transplant. Where did he come from?? Also a mystery, damn.
• Has extremely mixed reviews at his job because he has terrible bedside manners but is like the most efficient worker at any given time.
• i want him to have some weird side gig because i think it'd be funny, like he just moonlights as an extremely popular banksy type graffiti artist or anonymous slam poet or something

Looking For: THE USUAL BLANKET I'M GAME FOR ANYTHING. more specifically:
• PATIENTS?? who's leaving him 1 star reviews on yelp
• Coworkers/students he may have crammed with and lived that exhausted nurse life with
• Distant relatives?? Some Family Is Okay Maybe
• Friends! Penpals! Childhood buddies! Past flames?! Give him social connections for once in his sad, sad little life.
• Let's form a roving raccoon huddle of miscreant graffiti artists

re: reacting to au memories, scaramouche will largely be ignoring his! those are fake! get them out of his head! bye!! but he's at least somewhat susceptible to treating people differently depending on their au history and i'm totally down for playing around with this and seeing what happens

rudbeckia de borgia • how to win my husband over

[appeale]

Character Name: Rudbeckia de Borgia / AU: Rudbeckia Amato (info, including content warnings)
Canon: How to Win My Husband Over (webnovel) + Nightfell CRAU
AU Occupation: part-time English Literature/History tutor, part-time violin tutor, full-time university student
AU Background:

• Her AU background mirrors her previous two lives because she is trapped in an endless nightmare!! So a blanket CW for abuse applies to this history.
• The Amato family are wealthy philanthropists with a reputation for being charitable, and well-regarded among upper class social circles. Behind closed doors, they are corrupt, buying political and market influence, as well as dysfunctional.
• Rudbeckia is the youngest child of three, with two older brothers. An adopted charity case, she has suffered stigma from her peers and upper class society, as well as severe abuse from her adoptive family.
• Because of her circumstances, Ruby behaves as a "perfect" daughter – hard-working, cheerful, clever, and people-pleasing. This made her an easy target for bullying throughout her school years, as she never stood up for herself.
• She's been in a few arranged marriages organised by her family in order to secure political favours, business deals, or reputation; most of these were called off in the engagement stage, resulting in nasty rumours that follow Ruby.
• Her family are vocally devout Catholics.
• In terms of how Rudbeckia herself takes all this — as an isekai, she's accustomed to adhering to someone else's life and identity, so she won't act out against her OFF world identity in any way. But she doesn't want to abandon the hard work she put into her relationships from Nightfell either. So there's a divide between her ON and OFF world identities. Characters will know her as enthusiastically friendly in the ON world, and then find themselves unable to pin her down in the OFF world as she seems to avoid them. Ruby herself believes that if she allows the two to cross over too much, everything will inevitably fall apart and she'll lose what connections she's managed to scrape together.

Looking For:

• The main preface is that Ruby doesn't have any friends. :') Only friendly acquaintances who realise they don't actually know anything personal about her. I'm 100% open for young childhood friends who have since drifted apart, though! She's just... incapable of maintaining positive relationships due to her Issues...
• Fellow rich kids and socialites are easy CR! People who went to the same private school as her, people to hang out with at stuffy social events, things like that.
• On the private school note – former bullies, anyone who witnessed her being a doormat and either ignored her or tried to help out, etc. She was a victim in a lot of ways because that's her lot in life. She would have played lackey to mean girls, suffered from a lot of gossip and rumours, been harassed and generally ostracised...
• She's got a couple of arranged marriages under her belt now but I'm always open for more lmao.
• She's a Business Major at university, a violin tutor, and does various activities in her spare time like ballet, dressage, and tennis. Any of those are potential avenues for CR!
• I FORGET WHAT ELSE I HAD ON HERE BEFORE... If you can't think of a connection, hit me up and we'll work something out!!

Character Name: Roxana Agrece
Canon: Roxana (How to Protect the Heroine's Older Brother)
AU Occupation: student and as dictated by pixi, a florist
AU Background: how much did i think about this help me

-i am here to give her a better AU background than her current one
-she has a nice enough family, comparatively. they own a flower shop and are more busy running it than they are concerned about her
-she's in school for horticulture or pharmacy or both. imagine that's her undergrad major before she decides to make her family's flower shop part pharmacy/apothecary.
-she has a normal enough childhood! she's competent and didn't make too many waves but was smart enough to get scholarships for school. the less she has to pay for anything, the better
-which is to say, yes, she does use her beauty to get people to pay for drinks and dinner and do favors for her
-probably has some kind of side hustle that rakes in the $$$. no one knows what it is (i'm still deciding you can help me decide). it's a mystery, but she's great at accumulating money
-somehow related to kaveh despite the above

Looking For:
-anything and everything applies as usual
-simps. i'm KIDDING. I'M REALLY KIDDING. don't simp for her
-exes? please. this is the only time i can get her a romance. in a fake au once upon a time.
-friends? please give her a friend. she is not a good person, but she likes goodhearted people (for the most part)
-customers at her flower shop
-roxana is an isekai, so she'll adapt to the fake au memories and take and choose what's advantageous to her and change what isn't (or try to)
