JANUARY 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.

Liir!!

I'm really interested to see how their CR might shake out in this setting, given that Rin is actively working as a mercenary for different corporate groups while Liir has only recently gotten out of a similar line of work. Maybe his perspective on the other side of that line will be good for her? We could also do something with them both being scouted by Yakashbah, maybe, since Rin has the experience for the group but isn't inclined to align herself with them at this point.

Expect Liir to try to push her to join them over him because he thinks their focusing on him would actually be bad for The Cause. Famous name or not, he thinks she's more competent/strong/experienced/pretty and thus better qualified.

Meanwhile Rin will be like "what?? but you're so much more connected to The Cause than me, you're definitely better suited"

(btw, would you mind if I added you on plurk again?)
