+1 to the Party

[dead_black_eyes]

Heyo, I'm Lexil, and I'm not a detective but I sure do play one on the internet.

I am completely new to the game and very happy to be here. I've heard so many good things about all you lovely people, and I can't wait to jump in. I'm bringing you L Lawliet from Death Note, that animanga about a wannabe god and his pet shinigami and the weirdos who try to bring him down.

In L's canon, he is kind of a freak and the world's three greatest detectives. In Save the Earth's setting, his reincarnation is a burnt-out chess prodigy whose uncle committed him for three years and stole all his money. Since then he's been rejected from his dream career, attempted suicide, and gone to rehab for cocaine abuse. Now he's a neurotic shut-in and a terrible unpublished mystery writer who tries to live vicariously through his terrible one-dimensional characters (and his stolen police radio shhhh), but hopefully his life is about to get much better when he gradually remembers that, in another world, he was much cooler than any of his anemic detective protagonists.

Here is his
info post, and here are the
NPCs in his life.
His app is here if you have a lot of time and are a masochist. I am super happy and anxious to get started so don't hesitate to contact me on AIM [tinmaiden] or add me on plurk [Lexil] if you want to plot or work out built-in CR or ANYTHING your little hearts desire.

***ALSO! That police radio has been reporting some weird, weird stuff since April 1. He's been paying pretty close attention. Let me know if something happened to your character that he might have heard about!

Hello and welcome to the game, Lexil.

I'm Joc & I play an original character known as Sandrath -- a fallen arch-angel by his world's terms -- but better known in-game as Xander Jarle, a former soldier turned baker.

It's nice to meet you.

[dead_black_eyes]

Hey, Joc! Thank you for the warm welcome and your quick intro to Sandrath; he sounds cool, and heck knows that L loves baked goods. I foresee CR in our future.

[dominateartimus]

You're welcome and I figured that the bit about being a baker would catch your character's attention. I look forward to threading with you as well.

[dead_black_eyes]

Haha most definitely. Eventually he will recover his inability to eat anything but sweets through echoes. Until then I guess he'll just have to languish in relative unfinicky health. Poor guy.

[ursoreckless]

Hello Lexil, welcome to the game!

I'm Alec and I play this guy here: Sho from the movie Moon Child. In his past life, he was a street rat that became a mob boss and then was turned into a vampire by his BFF. In this life, he is a trust fund baby that moved to America in hopes to avoid his family's 'grand plans' concerning him and is currently working in a small law office when he can remember that he has a day job.

As for the police radio... Shou was involved in an accident in which he said he swerved to avoid a big black hairy dog. IDK if it would register as a blip, but it may sound weird since he described it at first as being big, hairy huge eyes and sort of hopping.

[dead_black_eyes]

Hello Alec! Your guy sounds awesome and I really look forward to meeting him ICly. If he works in law, it's more than likely that L will meet him and probably even have reason to work with him, which would be super-cool.

And thank you SO much for the incident. I will totally incorporate that into a future post. Whenabouts did it happen?

[ursoreckless]

He is basically the files clerk for a small claims office - you know, the guy that makes sure all the papers are in order, makes sure that people get the right papers, and gets the coffee. His uncle runs the place, which is probably why he still has a job considering Shou's night life.

It happened May 27th about. Also, in his network posts, Shou pretty much has told everyone he is a yakuza wannabe in his past life.

[dead_black_eyes]

Oh I see so he's a paper-pusher and coffee guy. XD They still might meet and it should still be fun. Especially if they have nightlife connections (L doesn't have much of one, but his connections sure as heck do.)

Thanks for the info!

[ursoreckless]

Which also means that he has ALL the gossip of the office and is the last guy anyone thinks has a brain to boot because... well, he does play up his silliness to an art form. For the nightlife, he is known to dress up in outlandish outfits - including one in which he looks like a girl - gets into fights when he hits that level of drinking - and shows a remarkable ability to dodge his way out of harm since May - and drives ridiculously fast in his suped up mclaren mp4-12c.

[dead_black_eyes]

Hey, there is something to be said for looking a big foolish and getting people to underestimate you! L has practically made a career of it.

He definitely sounds like someone useful to know. FORTUNATELY with regards to their thread L is not easily offended. XD

[ursoreckless]

And Shou doesn't hold grudges so long as it's not something serious. In canon he held a grudge for ten years over a death of a friend but didn't mind it at all when people shoved guns in his face. Same mentality with this guy tbh.

[scramasax]

Greetings and welcome t'you to Save the Earth~

I'm Blue, and I'm player of Anthony from Eternal Darkness, loyal messenger to Charlemagne turned zombie, reincarnation a goodie-goodie and strait-laced but naive sixteen-year-old whose past life's zombification has been catching up with him; and Rarity from My Little Pony, unicorn socialite and fashion mogul reincarnated as a hornless pet pony named Cinderella.

An L is always an intriguing character to have around - and may you have a swell time here!

[dead_black_eyes]

Thank you! Hello, Blue; I can't wait to meet Anthony because zombies are just always awesome, though that is a shit hand to get dealt in terms of echoes. XD And yup, that sounds about right for Rarity.

I'll do my best with him, and I'm super confident that it'll be a rip-roaring good time. :)

[titansno]

Welcome to StE!

I'm Zero, with two. This one's Raven from Teen Titans, now Rachel Roth! A spooky teenage sorceress turned neurotic twenty-something fantasy and horror writer with a cigarette habit.

The other is Enter from Spec-Ops Cell Go-Busters, a one-time villainous AI who's better known as Cain Hashimoto these days! He's a programmer from Quebec, working at a tech firm owned by a reincarnated GLaDOS.

Hope you have fun here!

[dead_black_eyes]

I love Raven! Oh goodness I am almost scared to see her reaction to L's really, really abysmal mystery writing. She's succeeding where he's failing over, and over, and over again, and he might even be pretty jealous of that.

I've never heard of Enter, COMPLETELY canonblind on that front, but part of the fun of RP is learning about new characters and canons, so I look forward to playing with him, too. <3

Thank you for the warm welcome, Zero! I'm sure it'll be awesome.

[tenaciousc]

Welcome!

I'm DC, and right now I just play this lady here. Chell from Portal, these days Michelle Velasco, working at the same firm Zero mentioned and pretty much in a constant state of "what the hell have I gotten myself into with you people" where the network is concerned. (She's new. She'll get over it.)

Something something cake.

[dead_black_eyes]

Yaaay Portal. I played with a Chell before and I think she's an awesome character, so I really look forward to playing with yours. :)

And if she has some, she is SO encouraged to share.

[tenaciousc]

I'm still sort of getting the hang of her reincarnate. Hope I can measure up! Looking forward to playing with your L, too.

[dead_black_eyes]

Playing reincarnates really IS different, but I'm sure you're awesome. :) Thanks for tagging my intro post! I can't wait to see how the thread pans out.

[drama8om8]

Hello! Welcome to STE!

I'm Louise, and I play Annie Leonhart from Attack on Titan (shortspoken) who is now Annabel Lyons, going by Ellie on the network because her cagey nature is only encouraged by the fact she works for Thunder Corp. Gosh.

I also play Octavia here. Who used to be a Homestuck troll but is now one of Locke City's newest fugitive not-terrorists! So there's probably been a decent amount of police chatter about that. Apparently jailbreaks are big news or something, who would have anticipated this

Nice to meet you!

[dead_black_eyes]

Thank you so much for your welcome, Louise! I feel like I fit in already.

I love Attack on Titan so hard, and I'm super thrilled to see that there's a pretty healthy cast here. I look forward to playing with your Annie and your Homestuck gal (though I'm pretty canonblind following Act 6 or so). He will definitely have heard about that; just to be clear, did Octavia break out of jail? I have so much to read up on it is seriously not even funny ORL)

[shortspoken]

One of us

One of ussssssss

I MEAN yes! Octavia and Alan (the game's resident Eren) got themselves arrested for vandalism, were interrogated by an incredibly threatening policeman in cahoots with the enemy, and helped organise their own jailbreak via the network. There's a mention of it in this month's plotting post, should that be of interest at all! 83

[dead_black_eyes]

(Dude I cosplay a sick Levi and I made my OWN 3-D maneuver gear. :B )

Thank you so much for helping me get involved. I'll have L drop a mention of it in a future post or log!

[shiromadoushi]

Hey you. :)

[dead_black_eyes]

Hey me! :D

[keywarding]

Hello Lexil, I'm Dusty! Welcome to the game. I play this girl here, Holly Avalon (Sakura Kinomoto) a LCMS student and Kazu Surugi (Kazu Mikura) a LCHS student.

I'm not sure if either of my characters could have any pre-established cr but I look forward to playing with you!

[dead_black_eyes]

Hi Dusty! Thank you for the warm and kind welcome! I, too, cannot wait for L to meet your girls. It should be a lot of fun. :)

[testsonseashells]

didn't this guy dramatically eat a potato chip once

in any case, i'm kappy, and i play roxy lalonde of homestuck, and mordin solus of mass effect. nice to meet you.

[dead_black_eyes]

That was the other guy. XD

Hello Kappy! I love Roxy AND Mordin, so it'll be awesome to play with you.

[eras]

Hi! I'm Lucy with three! The first is Aradia Megido from Homestuck, reincarnated as Aria Megido. She's a fairly cheerful and friendly girl who likes history and a variety of nerdy things, and she lives with her sister in Japantown. She's 16 and therefore a high school student, though she also works part-time at her grandmother's antique shop (also in Japantown) and does occasional babysitting gigs.

The second is Toph Beifong from Avatar, reincarnated as Sophie Bai, 13-year-old middle school student. She's sort of blunt and snarky still, but also is more polite and willing to work with people/ask for help in her current incarnation, partly because her family support system is a lot more awesome and less overprotective. She's still blind, and has a cane, although she got back her foot-sight recently. She's still practicing it.

And the third is Serah Farron, from Final Fantasy 13, reincarnated as Sierra Callahan. Sierra is a 20-year-old girl from a family of four (she has a younger brother) who works as a secretary at a local veterinary clinic. When she's not doing that, she attends classes in the four-year veterinary technologist program at Locke U. She's fairly independent, preferring to do things on her own (she feels ill at ease not being able to do so, and tries everything else before requesting assistance, though she'll reluctantly get around to that), and sort of tends to keep her problems to herself. While she's fairly cheerful and friendly, she's super stubborn and a fair amount more selfish than canon-Serah was. She's also the most cautious of the three re: network information. Also her hair is currently light brown.

[dead_black_eyes]

Hello Lucy! Thanks for the welcome, and the detailed introduction to your characters. Actually I read every app of every character in this game (shamelessly impatient during the week my app was processing), and your Aradia especially caught my eye. I love your backstory for her.

I can't wait to interact with any and all of them!

[eras]

i try to make it as easy as possible for people to plot with me! and no worries, i do the same thing re: apps. and thank you so much for the compliment!
