Hi, everyone! My name is Stars. It's lovely to meet you guys!

I'm bringing you one British human disaster trashfire, John Constantine. He's right off the heels of the final episode of his self-titled show back from 2014/2015. You can find permissions, visuals and an overall about page over yonder. I'm so used to playing him with aspects of the comics I'll need to remember to tone down the cursing he does, phfff.

Best way to find me is yonder on plurk: whisperstars. I use it for general RP/psls/fandom nonsense, so pinging me or sending me a private plurk is going to be the best way to do it!

Big selling point for me for this little game was honestly the Sanity meter. I've played the Call of Cthulhu tabletop to a degree, and played the video game, which was great until all the endings. I'm stupidly excited to throw John at anything resembling that phffff. Why not, he was in a nutty bin once already.

I'm in the PST so behind pretty much everyone. I work evenings, so I'm up late. I stream 3-4 days of the week as well so tags can be sporadic, so let's back tag into oblivion.

[donthithimintheballs]

Oh man, you brought him from a good time period. I almost wish I brought Zed instead of Logan. But here we are. John is a Lovely disaster.

[thering]

Johnny C! I need to rewatch his series; it has been a while.

These two need to meet again (or for the first time, as it were) and go for that whiskey scavenger hunt.

[chuju]

Finally breezing through here to mention how pleased I am that you've added this trashfire to the party. He is delightful and all kinds of ridiculous.

[fika]

hi there Stars!! I'm Nav, here with Five from the Umbrella Academy. It's been some time since I've seen Constantine, but i'm excited to see you playing him here, and look forward to seeing him around in a cool horror setting. great to meet you!

Enter One (1) Mutant

[donthithimintheballs]

Howdy all!

I'm Gann and I bring you Logan, AKA: Wolverine. He's just coming from Japan so his history isn't TOO convoluted yet. But it's getting there. For those who don't know the canon, he's a mutant who has sharp claws that come out of his hands and a grouchy attitude. He's a softy though, I swear. He has a healing factor too, which means he heals, but I'm nerfing that drastically, and he can totally die! Which isn't canon but I needed to warp his powers and I am so excited for it!

Want to know more about him? Check out his Navigation Page here. It links to his app, permissions and other things.

You can add me on plurk or discord if you want! Plurk is redlionspride and discord is RedLionsPride#9087! I'm f rom California, so PST! Which it looks like some of us are from, which is exciting to me too!

I'm a big horror and spook fan and I love giving Logan the worst times. So I'm so excited to be here!

[thering]

I did not get to hit Logan up in the TDM but would like to once the game starts :> They can be old and weary together, smoke on the porch and yell at all those juvenile zombies to get off their lawn idk

[enduresurvive]

HELLO I'm TJ and I'm bringing you Ellie from The Last Of Us. Well technically from the sequel. I have info, permissions, and an opt out on Ellie's journal. There's spoilers for TLOU2 in some of that, but it's kind of unavoidable. Still I'll do my best to avoid those if you need me to! TLOU has a lot of gruesome things in it that I'm happy to gloss over too, but I feel like most of us in horror games kind of roll with it.

She's coming at you from the middle of a journey for revenge so you'll have to just forgive her if she's stand-offish or slow to trust. She doesn't have any superhuman abilities or anything but she's still pretty scrappy! She can also play guitar and draw so, you know, a little well-rounded for being from after the zombie apocalypse and all that.

I'm boywonder if you want to add me there. That's where I do most of my RP plotting and such! I'm not very good at intros orz

[thering]

Hi TJ it's been a while. Enjoyed writing with Ellie, they should start over in game and he can make the same faux pas and weird her out :3

[thering]

Hi I'm Scy and I've got Doc Holliday from fairly early on in Wynonna Earp. He is currently introducing himself to everyone as 'Henry' or 'Hank' for short but at some point he will claim to be that Doc Holliday. In the show he was cured of TB and became immortal (doesn't age but can be wounded/killed), promptly got shoved into a well, stuck down there for 130+ years, and now helps the titular character shoot demons. So he gives off kind of old timey cowboy vibes but will be familiar with modern gadgets and music and stuff.

I know the TDM is not game canon so happy to start anew with people I've already written with and of course, start totally new things with people I didn't manage to hit up just yet. You can reach me at restlessheart for anything. I don't really use discord for RP.

[tinstar]

COWBOYS?! Hi. Raylan is.. obviously one of those kids affected by Holliday's stories soo. :3 He will be very interested in other Cowboy sorts, understandably.

[reydacted]

Hello! I'm Col and I've got Rey here from a really in-opportune point from Star Wars IX The Rise of Skywalker (right after she thinks she blitzed Chewbacca with some Force Lightning). So really the perfect time to thrust her into something new to struggle with her own power.

I'm on plurk colster although I am laughably bad at plotting outside of private plurks, so don't think you need to add me just to plot with me. I also trim and keep my plurk list pretty small so if you'd like you can also hit me up on discord at colacanth#1778

Her permissions, info, app, opt-out, etc are on her journal, probably most easily found from her navigation page that will look pretty some day.

[chuju]

I wonder how long it will take Daisy to dub Rey a Space Wizard...

[tinstar]

Hi guys! My name is Arma and I'm super stoked to be here. Let me tell you what I got.

I present to you fine folks, one trigger happy Deputy US Marshal, Raylan Givens from the Fox Show Justified. Southern charm meets gunslinging! He's wholly based in reality with no nerdy key in to most modern culture that aren't westerns so have fun breaking his brain a little. Contact and Permissions can be found following the links and you can find me at hellacopacetic for plotting fun. I've never played him in a game before so this is super exciting.

I'm on EST and work a stressful kind of 9 to 5er, so tags during my week are touch and go tho I make my efforts and I hope that's okay, but I'm real into stories and cross canon, and I'm looking forwards to lots of fun!

[chuju]

I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE HERE, I've missed being in a game with you. It's been too dang long. (You know I already appreciate your southern gentleman.)

[chuju]

HELLO FRIENDS. I'm Amy, your resident mod, rolling in late to my own party and with no Starbucks in sight. (What a sad thing when it's fall drink season.) I'm so excited that all of you have elected to join me on this crazy adventure, and I really hope you have so much fun here.

I'm bringing in one slightly OP hacker spy superhero Daisy Johnson from Agents of SHIELD, which is affiliated with the MCU. (It's complicated.) She's coming after being tortured and nearly dying at almost the very end of the series, which I'm sure no one here has seen all (if any) of, but which you probably got a taste of on the TDM if I lovingly attacked you. Basically, she's used to dealing with Weird Stuff, but more aliens/robots/evil organizations and less creepy towns and spooks. Some more info on who she is and her powers is over on her permissions post, and if you want a really good snapshot of her life, I highly recommend this fanvid that covers her really sad story.

I'm around on plurk at taintedcrimson and discord at taintedcrimson#0896, and you're more than welcome to friend and contact me at either for chatting/plotting/etc. I know that not everyone might be comfortable with having the mod in their private sphere though, so absolutely no hard feelings if you don't! I live in EST and keep weird, usually way too late hours, so tags can come from me at random times. (If you're ever waiting on me for something, please do give me a poke, DW seems to keep eating my notifs and I don't ever want to hold anyone up on things.)

I look forward to writing more with each of you, and helping torture your characters in delightful ways!


(She doesn't usually look like this, she just recently visited 1955...)

[torsion]

basically they'll be friends based on The Bullshit huh

i've had dw eating my notifs, as well. they seem to show up in the inbox on dw itself, but... :(

anyway, i'm bea and you can catch me on yamper, but i tend to not check it or use it too much and discord/pms are better for me overall!

[webshoots]

sup! i'm laura. i'm super excited to be here because i haven't rped in like, 8 months or something and i am here for horror. i'm bringing you one ( 1 ) peter parker aka spider-man of marvel ( comics ) fame — for those unfamiliar with the comics, this basically means that peter is still a dork, but also that he's, like, 30.



eternally, basically

in terms of links—

permissions, contact and hmd.

if you need to reach me, i'm ruffians, but in terms of availability, my work schedule is variable and i'm based in the uk, so backtagging is 100% a necessity, i'm afraid! feel free to add me on plurk — i intermittently talk about fandom, but it's mostly rp with a side of cycling + skateboarding mishaps.

—AND OH MAN, i am a compulsive editor of comments so like. i do apologise to your inboxes in advance.

[hellblaze]

Hello, Laura! My name is Stars, and hola to the fellow comic book fans. I recently picked up RPing again too within the last year so ayy. There's that going on at least.

If you'd ever like to plot you can find me at plurk >> whisperstars

[torsion]

Hello! I'm Bea and I have brought in Jill Valentine from Resident Evil. She's right before the final Wesker fight.

She's former Delta Force and currently a founding member of an anti-bioterrorism outfit and is best known for her lockpicking skills, being thicc, and crushing skulls with her thighs. My permissions for her are here.

I enjoy writing traps, exploration, and fighting, so I'm your gal if you wanna wrassle or have a mentor figure to teach your character knife fighting, how to diffuse a bomb, or maybe just the correct form for a shoot kick!

I tend to not check plurk so your best bet on catching me is PM or sunset flip#7359 on Discord, but you're welcome to add me after letting me know at yamper. Wonderful to meet everyone and looking forward to playing with all of you! c:

[hellblaze]

EDIT: how about something better now that I'm not at work, fff

Hello, Bea! It's nice to meet you. My name is Stars, and obviously have the trashfire dumpster John Constantine himself. I really enjoyed their TDM thread. I apologize in way advance at the disaster he is. Thankfully, I'm not entirely canon blind to RE. I've got a Leon Kennedy journal from RE2REmake, and have played it and 5, watching friends play 3/4/8. Hoorah!

You can find me over on plurk if you'd like >> whisperstars

+1 time traveling feral gremlin

[fika]

Hi there!! I'm Nav, and i'm excited to be here!

I'm bring in Five Hargreeves from The Umbrella Academy, right out of the end of season 2 (so please let me know if you would like me to be conscious of spoilers when tagging). He's got Space + Time manipulation powers, and a terrible attitude of a cynical old man . And it's because conscience and experience wise, he is! He's a 58 year old mind in a teen body, because time travel sucks, and he kind of hates that. The nav page on his profile will have all the relevant info for anyone interested :)

I'm thrilled to be throwing this feral little gremlin into a horror setting!! I'm so excited to see how far the game setting can push him.

For contact: i'm at berezka, or pm this account! I'm on est, with a tendency to be on the slower tagging end due to work. I will backtag into oblivion!

[waywardsister]

I just utterly adore the UA, and Five in particular, so I would *love* to get into this snarkfest CR - Claire is from Supernatural, and has no super powers except for that one time she was a werewolf (she got better) and that one time she was an angel vessel (she got..... well, worse). She hunts monsters and has an attitude, though!

[revvedup]

hi everyone! my name's carlee and i'll be bringing you max guevara of the show dark angel. for those familiar, she's from the middle of the first episode of season two; for those unfamiliar that means she'll be arriving in town right as she thinks she's succeeding in escaping the government facility that created and recently recaptured her. she's genetically engineered and was created with the intention to be a supersoldier, but escaped at age nine and has spent her time since looking for the siblings that escaped with her and doing some vigilante work for her would-have-been boyfriend.

i'm very excited to explore her in a horror setting and looking forward to playing with you all! max's info and permissions are here, and if you've got any questions you can reach me on plurk or through PMs.

also, a gif, as is tradition:

[hellblaze]

Hello, Carlee! My name is Stars.

I play this human disaster, John Constantine. I think we may have tagged way back in the day with me playing another muse.. as it seems very deja vu. Anywho, I'm canon familiar with Max through RP at least!

You can find me over on plurk at whisperstars if you'd like!

[40seconds]

Hi there, I'm Kelly and I'm bringing in Phil Coulson from Agents of SHIELD, a rather unassuming guy, but if you cross him or anyone on his team, you might be in for a world of hurt. He has an info post on his journal if you'd like to peruse it.

Feel free to add me on plurk @ starkravinghazelnuts or on discord at starkravinghazelnuts#4249! I can't wait to get started here!

[chuju]

I'm christening your comment with Emotions because I'm so glad you're here. Sorry not sorry.

+1 hunter

[waywardsister]

Hello everyone!

My name is Inky, and I'm bringing you Claire Novak from the insanely long-running Supernatural. She's a hunter, so she hunts down monsters and saves people, and because that is just not a profession that attracts healthy people, Claire is quite the troubled figure. Expect snark, sass, pop culture references, and a young woman just barely out of her rebellious teen years, and still prone to bristling at people who want to protect her, step into parental roles, or just people in roles of authority in general. Claire can be stand-offish and slow to trust. Oh but don't worry - if she comes to like you and grows close to you, the found family is strong with this one. At which point she will recklessly risk life and limb for you. All joking aside, she is quite capable at what she does - and quite ready to throw herself in harm's way, too.

Oh, and of course she's fresh from losing yet another person she loved, too, so just... good times all around!

Feel free to check out her App/Info and her Permissions, which include an Opt Out for her Pop Culture references - basically, I don't really push for all the fourth walling all the time, but Claire does at one point snap "Bite me, Teen Wolf" at a werewolf, soooo... if you'd rather avoid your canon becoming a reference, feel free to use the opt out under OOC Permissions!

As for me, I'm German, so my time zone in CET/CEST, which can affect my availability for tags, of course. You can reach me on inkcharm or on Discord (inkcharm#4573). Super excited to get our collective spook on and see everyone in this bar getting progressively more traumatized!

[hellblaze]

Hello, Inky! (I was just about to tag back that TDM too)

My name is Stars, and obviously have this human disaster walking. I know a lot of SPN from osmosis and watched the first 1.5 seasons then bounced. SO I am at least aware of most the canon things!! A

Feel free to friend me over on plurk >> whisperstars. It's the best way to plot and get a hold of me for RP things!

[chicartista]

hello friendos! i'm astrea and i'm a horror junkie who is super excited to be here! it's been 84 years since i've been in a game but this one sounded so good i couldn't resist!

i'm bringing in zed martin from constantine. a psychic on the run from her father's cult. like john she's coming in from the end of the series. she's going to totally be thrown by the fact her powers don't really work here, especially since she's spent most of her life fighting to be in control of them and now they're just... who knows!

i'm very open for all the pain plots and all the things. this lady is in desperate need of friends lol. you can hit me up at shookspeare (if you'd prefer my discord lmk and i can pm it to you!). i'm in pst but keep very weird hours so i'm usually around!

[hellblaze]

Bae. WE FINALLY IN A GAME TOGETHER WITH THESE HELPLESS MORONS. O m g. Like literally six years later after these morons came out.

+1 stressed depressed mess

[volunteertomatoes]

Hello Village! I'm Chase and I'm bringing you Quentin Makepeace Coldwater from The Magicians, who is honestly just very Tired at this point. For those not canon familiar, he's a giant fantasy nerd in his late 20s obsessed with Fillory and Further, which is basically a copyright-free version of The Chronicles of Narnia if CS Lewis was a piece of shit. Instead of going to an ivy league school like planned, his life takes a turn when his post-grad school turns out to be one for magic users called Magicians. Think Hogwarts if Dumbledore was an alcoholic and cynicsm was the bread and butter of the universe. Oh, yeah, and Fillory is a real place and he becomes a king, saves magic, kills a God, fucks magic up, saves magic again -- you know. The usual.

For that are canon familiar, he's from post s4, which means he's in a bit of a fragile state, to say the least. He and his canon have a lot of trigger warnings and I want to be careful, so please look this over!

You can find me over on plurk at whitespire. Looking forward to hanging with everyone!

[waywardsister]

CHASE

WE ARE IN A GAME AGAIN

+1 well dressed mess

[endlessflask]

Hello~

I'm Lausanne and I'm bringing you Eliot from The Magicians. He's the life of the party but he also just needs to rest and maybe have something good happen to him once (which probably isn't going to happen here). He's very much an extrovert and quite blunt with his words, so he'll say whatever he wants when he wants. His canon has some heavier things so if you want to check out his permissions to see a brief outline of the content warnings associated with it, go ahead.

On a personal note, I'm hustling with two jobs right now, and as one of them starts at 5:30am, I am tired and sometimes my responses can be delayed. But! I try to get at least one tag a day if I can. You can follow me on plurk at blackspire, or hit me up there or via PM if you ever want to plot stuff.

[chicartista]

hi lausanne! i'm astrea and i have zed martin from nbc's constantine. i've been meaning to watch magicians forever but i think these two would get along. zed's a tactile psychic having issues adjusting to being here and tbh if she can handle john constantine i think she can handle anyone who says what they want when they want lol.

+1 Mess That Works

[abrightboy]

Hi everyone,

My name is Sarah and am bringing in Malcolm Bright, from Prodigal Son. He's coming from the end of episode 14, where (spoiler alert) he just stabbed his serial killer of a father in the heart to save a woman's life.

He was pretty sure he could do it without killing him, but his father is still in ICU in a coma when he's brought here.

Malcolm has a lot of problems, which you can read about here, which largely stem from his father's secret hobby of serial killing and the way that Malcolm found out about it. One of his coping mechanisms is solving mysteries (usually murders) with the police, so expect him to be very nosy about the Mystery of Mathias and wtf is going on here.

Can't wait to thread with everyone; this game has really exciting characters in it. My feet have been out of game RP for a little bit now and I love building a story.

+1 stinker

[unwilt]

hello everyone!! i'm bobby and i'm bringing the hot mess that is thomas from the 2018 netflix original horror movie apostle! he's a jaded ex-priest from 1905 who has already had a series of terrible horrible no good very bad days on an island populated with cultists literally just before getting here, so he's coming in testy and irritated to say the least.

thomas's canon is a horror movie and it's pretty explicitly gory and deals with complicated topics including religion and christian missionaries in asia, so please check his permissions and the content warnings especially; if you want to avoid certain topics or opt out entirely for any reason, let me know, the comments on that post are screened!

besides that, i'm bobby, i'm from the uk, and i'm currently working fulltime on a PhD so i'll be a bit slow from time to time, but backtagging/handwaving are always options! i'm super excited about this game, i had a great time on the TDM and i'm really looking forward to getting stuck in here. >:)

oh also i forgot to link my plurk!! it is crowders and you can feel free to send me an add!

[torsion]

yo!!! i'm bea and i have jill from resident evil. jill's info/permissions are here and i'll be happy to start something new if you want to get down to business!

i'm sunset flip#7359 and yamper, but i'm pretty sporadic on plurk!

[bestfuneralever]

Hello, darlings! I can't WAIT to get the ball rolling on this lovely little game space you've got here. I bring (1) disaster trashfire Cochella Jesus, at your service~ He's from the end of s2, so let me know if you don't want s2 TUA spoilers and I'll do my best to avoid rolling them around in threads with you!

Important links: Permissions | HMD | loyalwolf#3540 @ discord

Psychological horror is MY JAM and I look forward to getting CR with everyone-- positive, negative, and everything in-between! Plz don't shy away from your character wanting to throttle Klaus: He's used to it, it's fine. lmfao

HMU on disco any time. Can't wait to get started! :D

[torsion]

Hello! I'm Bea and I play Jill Valentine from Resident Evil! Her permissions/info can be found here and there's an HMD (IP off, anon on) in her journal. You can hit me up at yamper, through PMs, or sunset flip#7359!

Great to meet you! c:

[vampirebats]

Hello, everyone! I'm excited to get started here. I'm bringing in Negan from the Walking Dead, during the war with Alexandria and Rick Grimes himself.

He's crude, macho, and uses cursing like it's going out of style, so if anyone is uncomfortable with any of that, let me know! I'll try to tone it down or avoid tagging your character!

My permissions post is here, IC contact is here. If you want to get in touch with me, my plurk is noassgardian.

[40seconds]

Welcome, welcome~ We have no moonshine for u negan dubious mystery meat, stubborn doors, and a whole lot of bad weather. It's nice here, I promise.

More seriously, I'm looking forward to seeing Negan around!
