FEBRUARY AU WORKSHOP

Welcome to the AU Workshop! We understand adapting a character for an AU game can be a difficult process, even if you have all the creativity in the world, so we've put this together to help! Just fill out the form and post it in a comment below, and sort of brain out which ideas stick!

Keep in mind this is not a reserve. Reserves will open on the 3rd, as always, and you don't need to use this if you're already sure of your ideas! This is just a fun creative exercise that we hope you enjoy and find helpful!

Be sure to check out our Premise, FAQ, Locations, and NPC posts for worldbuilding info to help you get started!

Here's the form!<b>PLAYER:</b> <b>CHARACTER:</b> <b>CANON:</b> <b>AU NAME:</b> if the character's name is different, you can note so here! If not, feel free to put n/a <b>AU AGE:</b> same here! <b>BLURB:</b> Write a short description of your character's AU! Are they a Meta-human? If so, what are their powers? Are they a normal human? Do they have anything else unusual about them, such as cybernetic parts or other features? What's their background? Hobbies? Anything interesting you want to say! <b>LOOKING FOR:</b> Are you looking for family members or friends or enemies for your character to be pre-planned? Or are you asking for ideas or feedback on your AU idea? Anything goes, just specify what you would like. <b>OPTIONAL ENABLE ME:</b> Are you torn between which character to app? Let us help! Post your ideas in a comment and let fellow players offer feedback and CR ideas. You can also use this section to ask for canonmates you would like to see in-game whether it be in your specific AU or for different CR.

Ooh, that works! Bioweapon cloning experiments ought to stick together, or something like that. Actually, depending on how the plot shakes out, reclaiming one of the DZ's wayward experiments could even be a sub-objective for her?

And LMAO YEAH, Lucius would consider that to be cheating. He hates cheaters!!! So that dynamic between the two of them would be entertaining, to say the least. Esp since Lucius gets... very passive-aggressive and snide with people he doesn't like, and also doesn't hide who those people are.

Seems like there's a real bio-weapon-cloning push this workshop, so having connections would be awesome IMO. And probably save the mods a lot of grief if they ever want to do something with it all, and have ONE shady bio-company instead of seven!

And Lucius, tsk tsk, just because a power works a way you don't like doesn't make it cheating!

wrong account but

Yeah! I'm already giving some thought to how to connect the other clone and clone-adjacent ideas, assuming everyone else wants to get on the same page. It seems to me that we could pretty easily establish a chain of stolen research and prior failures.

And he makes the rules, so he gets to decide what's cheating!!! ftr, what I had in mind for his abilities was largely boosting his natural physiology (with a small edge of shapeshifting). Growing to a certain extent, accelerating his healing, intensifying his senses, that kind of stuff.
