Character planning and intro-ing thread

[jewelfox]

As of right now, we have four players: redsixwing, sablin27, blackswanseer, and kaesa!

EDIT: We also have a provisional fifth player, adad64!

This is the thread where you all can introduce yourselves to each other. >_>b We would like it if you would each say a little about yourselves maybe, along with the following:

• Your preferred pronouns

• Your character concept so far

You are encouraged to comment on each other's concepts, and brainstorm ways that your characters might know each other or that their stories might fit together.

Speaking of stories, here is the plot: A group of people from the past end up in the sci-fi transhumanist future. The ways that someone can do so include, but are not limited to, cryogenic stasis and reconstruction from a thanogram. You can also play as someone from a Korean generation ship isolated society, if you like, one which may be socially and technologically regressive.

Finally, you can play as someone who's from the future and has to help the newcomers adjust ... or who wants them to play a role in their plans!

So yeah, please do the brainstorming thing in this thread. >_>b Don't forget that you can subscribe to individual comment threads, here on Dreamwidth.

More answers to questions will be forthcoming, if we can deal with our IRL stresses enough to do so. ^^;

What if *Ascension is a video game character?

I'm having trouble articulating the way this might change things, but I'm imagining bringing in tropes particular to whatever media he's from either way. Also there might be a creator somewhere who wants to give people the chance to "play a game," which could be as innocuous or malicious as needed ...

[kaesa]

I see what you're getting at, I think? My first thought when I read this comment, actually, was wondering what kind of potentially embarrassing or traumatic "easter eggs" someone who'd do this would hide in his programming. And how having multiple endings would work for an actual real person.

All really cool ideas; and I particularly like the video game character one!
