So this will start out somewhat simplified and grow as I expand - as well as edit as things go down, etc. Hopefully this will help get new plots going with characters that need stuff, new twists with involved characters and just all around idea throwing. >;]
ANNA ADRELL FULSI, HUNTER [SHIFTER] + FEMALE, SINGLE, SOUTHERN, HANDY & STRAIGHTFORWARD +
FRIENDS - QUICK ENEMIES - ... ACQUAINTANCES - ... IDEAS - She is outgoing, loud and speaks her mind. She doesn't care who you are but she likes to go on morals and what she just feels is right and wrong. Don't piss her off cause she likes to hold grudges. Oh, and men be warned if you want to flirt with her, she likes to think that all men are usually just boys who want to get some -- so she's usually pretty wary of the opposite gender. THREADS [1/3] -
BELLENIE ROGUE [RETRO]
+ FEMALE, SINGLE, TERRITORIAL, ANGER ISSUES & LIKES KIDS +
FRIENDS - NONE, not sure if she wants friends? It might happen. We shall see! ENEMIES - ... (NEEDED, she makes enemies easier than friends.) ACQUAINTANCES - LEON IDEAS - She likes to start shit. Come too close to her? She likes to attack. Try and get in on her food supply? She likes to attack. She has a soft spot for kids though, so lucky them. She truly is a honey badger, and she doesn't give a f**k. Don't get me wrong, she's not incapable of making friends, it's just hard. Though that person might be pretty lucky to have her as a comrade. THREADS [2/3] -
ELLIOT "GAUNT" JAMES NILDA, CHIEFTAIN [RETRO]
+ MALE, SINGLE, FLIRT, LOYAL, PROTECTIVE & OLD FASHIONED +
FRIENDS - NAJERI ENEMIES - WANTED! ACQUAINTANCES - MAGGOT, QUICK IDEAS - He is a natural flirt and loves to flirt with anything female, especially of the canine breeds. I'd actually love for him to be in like, flirt-relationships with a few different females for awhile cause he's a young "player" although he only flirts because he loves it, he never goes for the physical aspect of it. But it could still cause some trouble if they find out about one another. ;] He is truly an old-fashioned gentleman in a way though - especially since he likes to take care of things instead of letting females do them; though he tries not to let on since from experience he's gotten chewed out before. Don't be fooled though, he wasn't made Alpha based on just his looks. THREADS [0?/3] -
FRIENDS - QUINN. ACQUAINTANCES - ... IDEAS - She is a quiet person when you first meet her, mostly because she is a bit hesitant about strangers, though she warms up pretty quick! I see her making friends easily with just about anyone, so friends are always good as long as they don't mind anthros! She is crushing on someone too, so there is no current romance available for her. THREADS [2/3] -
IMANI ROGUE [RETRO/ANTHRO]
+ FEMALE, SINGLE, SELF-RELIANT, STUBBORN, WARY & CURIOUS +
FRIENDS - NONE. Although she needs some! ENEMIES - NONE. I don't see her having multiple 'enemies' - but maybe a good rival or two. ACQUAINTANCES - ... IDEAS - She is a brand new character and needs some attention. She is a cheetah anthro and loves to run. :] Maybe a running partner that isn't something she wants to kill? Lol. Or in general a friend would be nice for her rogue self. She is a very curious individual although she likes to try and keep to herself. This form that she has been cursed to continues to peek her curiosity. THREADS [0/3] -
FRIENDS - NOISETTE (although he is more crushing) ENEMIES - NONE. ACQUAINTANCES - ... IDEAS - He tends to keep to himself though can socialize all the same - just not very good at it. He isn't very confident in himself, especially around girls (he tends to get all stuttery and whatnot), and likes to immerse himself in the few books he's found in his time here. He is a very good medic, passionate about his work and always looking for new things to try (herb wise). He tends to not stand up for himself but would stand up for anyone that was close to him, (friend or even newer acquaintance). I'd love for him to make some friends, even a 'girl'-friend that he can ask about all that odd stuff he doesn't understand about the opposite gender. THREADS [1/3] -
KATALEA RENNEN FALLEN, HUNTER [ANTHRO]
+ FEMALE, SINGLE, POSITIVE, LOYAL, NAIVE, FRIENDLY & PRANKSTER +
FRIENDS - AURELIO, LINC ENEMIES - Not sure if she'd have an enemy more so than someone who was annoyed by her? ACQUAINTANCES - ... IDEAS - She is a green macaw anthro and has the matching personality of one. She loves to talk with all people and retros, she doesn't really care as long as they're pleasant. She cannot get enough friends! Also, she'd be a good match for someone that likes to get into innocent fun, maybe even a bit more than accidentally. ;D THREADS [2/3] -
KATRIEN LOWENTHAL FALLEN, TENDERFOOT [SHIFTER]
+ FEMALE, SINGLE, YOUNG, SPOILED, LAZY & A BRAT +
FRIENDS - ... ACQUAINTANCES - AURELIO IDEAS - She is spoiled because she grew up in a rich family, hardly used to work. She also has a 'tough/bratty' exterior that she sticks to because she feels she'd just get hurt otherwise. She needs a friend, preferably around her age, that can try and stick with her and see through her outward bitchyness. She definitely has room to grow and I'd love a friend for her. THREADS [1/3] -
KEARIE O'CONNER NAKOMA, HEALER [ANTHRO]
+ FEMALE, SINGLE, CENTAUR, LEVEL-HEADED & PROTECTIVE +
FRIENDS - PERSEPHONE ACQUAINTANCES - QUICK, ZORA IDEAS - She is protective of those in her tribe and has a very peaceful side to thinking, although is never against showing her teeth when it comes to protecting others who are in need whether they are a tribe member or not. I don't really have much ideas for her but if you need a medic or a sudden heroin to your rescue, she could be it. THREADS [2/3] -
FRIENDS - ANN ACQUAINTANCES - CREED IDEAS - She is is new to the Menagerie and is quite frightened. Having run into the leader of the Lawaii after being heckled by some other birds she is happy to have a 'home' somewhere. She takes a little bit to open up but she is still learning who to trust and who to not. She is quite gullible. THREADS [2/3] -
SEIJA MULVIENE CARNA, LEAD HUNTER [SHIFTER]
+ FEMALE, BLIND, SHORT, CRAZY & MANIPULATIVE +
FRIENDS - KINCAID, ADISON?, FEN, SURMA ACQUAINTANCES - NATALIE, LYRIC IDEAS - She is a feisty little thing with a knack for being a bit violent ... okay a LOT violent. She tends to enjoy messing with peoples heads as well as giving out punishment if needed. Thinking that you know just exactly what this little nymph will through at you is laughable, as she loves curve balls. She is strict with her Hunters though will also kill/harm/mutilate anyone that harms her 'family'. THREADS [2/3]
TAWNY MONTGOMERY FALLEN, SCOUT [SHIFTER]
+ FEMALE, DEAF, KIND, LOYAL & WEARY +
FRIENDS - BENNET ACQUAINTANCES - none IDEAS - She finds herself singled out more often than not, treated differently (whether too kind or too mean) for the reason that she can't hear. She was told she'd never make it past a tenderfoot, as her inability to know when someone was coming up on her would be her downfall - and put many others in danger. She tends to try and keep to herself for this reason, even though she'd love to have a friend. And I'd love for her to have one too! THREADS [1/3]
VICTORIA LEBLANC ROGUE [SHIFTER]
+ FEMALE, FLIRTY, LUSH, TATT ARTIST with a SHORT FUSE +
FRIENDS - none ACQUAINTANCES - none IDEAS - Victoria is pretty friendly for the most part, especially if she likes the way you look ;] She can be a lush at times, but tends to keep those times to when she really needs to let loose (which happens more often than she'd like). She was a medic in the Carna before she went rogue, what with her healing powers and all; though she likes to put them more to good use as a tattoo artist. Sure she can tattoo you, but you have to pay, and it takes a lot longer than it did on the outside. She kinda has anger issues if you're not careful as well, but she tends to hold it in check .... most of the time. THREADS [0/3]
THIS IS A WIP AND I SHALL ADD MORE PEOPLES QUICKLY AND POST AGAIN WHEN I DO. :]
Last Edit: Jul 20, 2014 16:17:36 GMT -5 by SEIJA-CHAN
ASHER & PAYNAL , I totally already posted here for these two before my leave of absence, buuuuut I still think these two would work well for whatever it was I said before... So lemme know if you have any new ideas for these guys.
VALERIA & HALLIE , These two would probably get along quite well I think. I can definitely see them as being friends. Val likes to talk, and make jokes, so she'd try her best to keep Hallie amused. And their both Nakoma outriders so maybe they meet when they're put on a scout shift together? Val can barely see at times so basically she has not problem with the way anthros look. She's self conscious too... If Val ever found out that Hallie has a crush I definitely think she'd attempt to play matchmaker or something. Or basically just revert to her eighteen year old self and want to know all the goss. So I reckon friends for these two? Lemme know your thoughts.
VALERIA & IMANI , Running partners? Ocelots aren't quite as fast as cheetahs and Val doesn't exactly have the ability to shift either... But maybe she tries to teach Imani some of the more human aspects of life? She'd probably understand that it'd be hard for a retro to be confined to such a different body. So maybe Val can take on sort of protective sister type role?
ACE & JASPER , Ace needs to meet some of his medics. He'd be so excited that Jasper likes to learn new things about the medic stuff. However, I think Ace would spend a large portion of time almost trying to prove himself to the older man? Ace still has quite a bit to learn himself, and he's only eighteen, so at times he feels like he's a little inadequate in the role of chief medic. But he's super good with herbs, so maybe a bit of a teacher/quiz type lesson? Ace can teach Jasper a few more things and maybe Jasper shares some wisdom too? Ace tends to be a bit socially awkward as well... So maybe they have a weird sort of friendship. I dunno. I just kind of feel like Ace needs to meet some of the medics... Because otherwise he cannot do his job DX
AIDEN & KATALEA , Someone who likes to get into innocent fun? Basically Aiden has ADHD, can't sit still, and spends at least ninety per cent of his time getting into sticky situations. I think these two should definitely meet though. Aiden doesn't care much for looks and would be super excited by her pretty feathers. To him, there's really no difference between normal shifters and anthros. They're all people and they all deserve the same rights and freedoms. I think they'd definitely get along though, if she can keep up with his easily distracted mind that is. I think they'd just have some fun times together. Of course, Aiden his heavily reliant on his older brother, so Katalea might have to persuade him to split from his second half at times... Although if she coaxes him with adventures he'll be sure to follow.
VALERIA & KEARIE , I think these two could probably be friends of sorts. Val is also very peaceful and so she wouldn't be quick to pick a fight. Maybe Kearie notices Val's difficulty with her eye sight and offers to see if she can help? Of course, there's no way of healing the eye sight, but I think Val would definitely feel indebted to Kearie after that. So yeah, friends I'm thinking?
ASHER & TAWNY , Maybe these two meet somehow? I assume she can still hear through her thoughts? So maybe Asher figures out she's deaf and uses his telepathy to talk to her? He's usually pretty quiet but he also likes to help other people out, so he'd want to help her. Yeah. That's really all I've got... Lemme know if you've got any other ideas.
ace - asher - valeria - aiden - duke - soren - ebony - klaus - queenie - phoenix
You know I never went and read these Evkav <3333 I shall do so now!! 8D
ASHER & PAYNAL; yuss!! I have ideas but none for out in the open. But a protective other/possible friend for her would be amazing. She is easily susceptible in the wrong crowd. D;
VAL & HALLIE; maybe something in teh future if we can expand on this some. :D
VAL & IMANI; oooo I'd lovelovelove to be able to use Imani sometime. And definitely having someone to 'explain' things to her would be a good thing. :3 She's a little rough around the edges, being a loner and all, but I'm sure if Val sticks around she might worm her way onto Imani's good side. ^__^
ACE & JASPER; I think this would so good as well, and although Jasper is shaking his head at the whole social thing I'm sure we can shove em into a thread just fine. It'll be interesting with the whole meeting his higher up type thing. :D Plus Jasper needs to stop hiding in teh shdows. >.<
AIDEN & KAT; omgerd I love them already. She loves partners in crime. And she can def coax ;D Will have to think on what type of situations can occur. Heehe
VAL & KEARIE; not super muse-filled, but Kearie is easy enough to stick with anyone. Just her muse is usually low for me. ^-^''
ASHER & TAWNY; again, depending on the thread and how everything works, it could happen. But she's kinda a low muse charrie as well. xD;;
I TOTALLY NEVER GOT BACK TO YOU ON ANYTHING I'M SUCH A FAIL
Anywho I reckon we should just thread someone if you've got time. Just coz most of my characters are currently not really doing much. I'm keen for any of those guys, though I'd probably have the most muse for Aiden, Ace or Val... So totally up to you on which one you wanna start off with.
ace - asher - valeria - aiden - duke - soren - ebony - klaus - queenie - phoenix
Ana X Connor: I'm not sure how these two would meet, but I'd love to pit Connor's knack for chivalry against a fiery southern woman. He wouldn't know whether to be a smart-ass or cordial. xD
Paynal X Connor: I can see Connor taking Paynal under his wing (budum-ching), maybe even building a brother/sister thing here. He'd see the naivete and want to protect her.
Jasper X Connor: BROS BROS Again, not sure how they would meet, but Connor would really benefit from a quiet type like Jasper. Living in New York all of his life has made a little more able to assimilate with humans than your average Retro, but it would still be fun to see him be his awkward human self whilst trying to hold a conversation.
Kearie X Connor: If there is one thing that Connor needs, its peace. Kearie seems like she could hold a good conversation, and maybe even foster a freindship, maybe more some day.
Her tendencies to play with others minds is similar to Asclas Papadios, quite honestly I think he would come to absolutely adore and simultaneously hate her for that exact reason. I think he and her should become frenemies. He might even give her piggy back rides (Which he'd hate). If he was to lose a bet so to say? App Link
HALLIE & REMY
To quote Remy Screamer's personality "He often comes off as awkward and clumsy, terrified and impulsive - if not that than a sarcastic jerk. There is no in between." I think he and Hallie would be a rather interesting mix. App Link
KEARIE & REMY
I think these two would be awesome together especially because they have similar anthro forms in terms of the whole centaur like thing! App Link
PAYNAL & CHAQ
Chaq Balamut is a big goofball of pure loveliness. He's deaf so at first it might be hard for Paynal and him to communicate but if they keep at it, I'm sure they would find a way. I think it would be awesome to have Chaq become sort of like a big brother or father figure to Paynal. Birds of a feather flock together~ App Link
