They really are quite clever

[von_uberwolf]

Sup, Earthlings! It's Eric again...You know, the player of the loudmouthed witch and the confused demon lord? SOME of you must remember me.

Anywho I apped again. This time it's Delphine Angua Von Überwald, the vegetarian werewolf turned officer of the Watch, from Terry Pratchett's Discworld. Perhaps you have heard of her.

In this life, she goes by Angela Roth. She's from Chicago originally, but has been living in Locke City for six years now, where she works for the LCPD because as a bastion of law and justice, it represents everything she doesn't like about her brother who is a slimeball politician. She's a detective in the Vice Squad, and was one of the cops investigating the recent possible contamination of the city's drinking water (Vice got involved when it was flagged for a possible connection to that laughing drug that's been going around. You know the one.), but had been utterly unable to make any progress due to factors beyond her control (Crooked co-workers sabotaging her work, lack of access to a magical communication network, not being a PC yet...you know how it is.) until a bunch of anonymous sources suddenly dumped a ton of evidence into her lap and blew the whole thing open.

So...

Any cops, any people involved in illegal drugs or prostitution, or any Werewolves, I've got some past CR hooks for YOU. As always, I love plotting plots and am overbringer on plurk.

I leave you all with a message from Courage Wolf:

Can't wait for these two ladies to find some stuff they have in common!

[von_uberwolf]

Wolf buddies?

[goldenclothes]

until she eats/tries to eat someone

[youngestone]

omg Angua /chinhands

So Killian's not directly involved in vice stuff, but he hangs around the area kind of known for it since lol he lives there and may have been questioned a few times?

[von_uberwolf]

Makes sense. Maybe his neighbor was making meth once.

[ursoreckless]

Shou's not involved in anything illegal, but he is a known party boy and troublemaker. The only thing he does is alcohol so not too sure if he is on their map as anything other than 'person that gets in trouble'.

[von_uberwolf]

Occasional noise complaints about him and the like?

[ursoreckless]

More like 'some guy throws a punch and he's somehow in the middle of it' and somehow there's drugs found but he's all clean.

[minkhollow]

::SQUEAKS::
Like, I actually squealed out loud when I saw her network post. :D :D :D May have to have Becky talk to her at some point.

[von_uberwolf]

Tag me.

Taaaaaaaaag me.

[detectivetroll]

Oh man, I'm excited for everything about this character!

Hi! I'm Bri, and I play Nick Burkhardt here, who happens to be an LCPD homicide detective. And helped spear-head the plan behind exposing the water contamination plot.

He was also something of a supernatural creatures assassin in his past life, which he was pretty fail at, considering his best friend was a werewolf-expy. Nick's currently interested in all things werewolf, since he somehow keeps making friends with them, and is considering arranging some sort of werewolf support group.

SO BASICALLY I'd love prior CR, if you're up for it, and I'm insanely excited to see her!

Plus Discworld. Which is instantly awesome.

[von_uberwolf]

She doesn't KNOW she was a werewolf yet, but it's only a matter of time. However Angela is fairly friendly and generally tries to get along with her fellow officers, so she probably at least knows Nick in passing. They might even be friends.

Hooray for Discworld *waves Ankh-Morpork flag*

[detectivetroll]

I'll look forward to when she figures it out, then! :D

Nick is the same, he's generally sociable and friendly, with a pretty sarcastic sense of humor. He's also a huge workaholic, so he's one of those detectives who may be around at all hours of the day.

As far as water contamination goes - Nick was heavily involved in investigating that in a very unofficial. If he'd known that she was looking into it, especially that she was actively investigating rather than just pretending to look into it or sweeping things under the rug, he'd have tried to help out anonymously. Left a picture on her desk with the license plate number of the tanker dumping at the reservoir, that kind of thing.

[selfassured]

I heard the word 'werewolf'. Although Derek's still relatively clueless about being one.

He's has been chilling in the local jail for the past week-ish though.

[von_uberwolf]

Oh has he? What for?

[selfassured]

Generally just got caught by one of the police dogs. The fact that he'd caused a public scene with his red eyes a little while back didn't help his case.

[lightsoflife]

Wow I know I saw you plurking about Angua how did I miss this.

'SUP VICE SQUAD LADY so Angela might be vaguely familiar with Naomi since her specialty at work is the sort of thing involved in drug analysis.

And blah de blah I never actually said this but ANGUA GOOD.

[von_uberwolf]

So what's Naomi's deal then? Is she with the police in forensics or something?

[lightsoflife]

Whoops, my bad! Yeah, she works at the forensics lab and naturally they get a lot of police-related work.

[professorwolf]

YAY MOAR WEREWOLVES :D They need to like. Have a pack or something ^^

Or a couple packs that can skermish...

We need to come up with a way for them to meet stat ^^ Though Lyall has been very clear on the network what he is, so if she suspects and you wanna have her contact him, that's totally cool, too.

[von_uberwolf]

Unfortunately wolves actually hate Discworld Werewolves and will frequently attack them on sight if they can't be frightened into submission on the spot. For much the same reason that humans don't like werewolves.

Point is, Angua's not getting a pack. I 1000% support CR with Lyall, though.

[professorwolf]

Awww. Well, that could be interesting, given loner werewolves, without any pack, in Lyall's canon are considered dangerous and unbalanced >: 3

We will def have to work out how to toss them together though!

(Aw, they're even similar colors XD )

[vetala]

SCREAMS ENTHUSIASTICALLY

HI! I'm Surge and I play Kanti who is a reincarnated homestuck but more on that later because because right now DISCWORLD and I am EXCITED FOR IT

I actually JUST finished everything up until night watch for the guard, and just started reading the Death series so that I can finish and Angua is one of my favorite characters and I am super happy to see someone playing her.

[von_uberwolf]

If you like Angua then read Thud. She does awesome things in it.

Also Thud is just generally awesome. It contains flamethrowers, a man biting a troll, and the most epic reading of a children's book in the history of fiction.

[vetala]

I will get RIGHT ON IT when I finish the Death books + Night Watch. I am a nerd who likes to read chronologically, this is the reason.
