Activity check will remain open through December 7th. Only activity from November 1st through November 30th will be acceptable.

• If your character was accepted during this last month/activity cycle, you only need to check them in with their name/journal/info post, and do not have to fill out the four thread links and activity summary sections. If your character is less than a week old as of this announcement (accepted from Nov 24th onward), you do not have to reply here at all.

• If your character has an announced hiatus of a week or more in length for this month, this may be used instead of providing activity and you do not have to reply here. HOWEVER, please note that using a hiatus instead of providing full activity two months in a row will constitute a strike, which will stay in place for four months. Players who are currently on hiatus also do not have to reply here, but are encouraged to when able to avoid consequences if another hiatus has to be used next month in lieu of activity.

• All other characters must check in with all sections (or accept a strike) by or during the 7th or be removed from the game! :O

Please fill out the following form and add it in to a new comment.
Player Section (Paste once.)

Activity Section (Paste once per character.)


Threads do not have to be a set length to count, but it must be evident that some work/thought was put into them; a network-based thread of many brief comments may hold the same weight as a shorter one with a higher word count per comment. Threads can all be from the same entry and can have been originally started before the month's start. However, at least one thread provided must have been started during the actual month in question, and of course, all threads must actually have activity within the cycle duration.

In other words, don't sweat it, though if you feel four threads is not enough, you may provide up to two more, both of which can be with a character who is the same as in one of the first four linked threads.

Strikes: If your character does not meet activity requirements for whatever reason, you may opt to take a strike for them by replying here or speaking with a mod. Characters with an existing strike who then qualify for another will be removed from the game, and cannot be apped again until their initial strike has expired. However, again, each strike only lasts four months before being reset. For example, a character who has a strike from August will need to have activity or a declared hiatus each month up to and including December's activity check.

Hi, everyone! I'm Len; I used to play here quite a while ago, but you guys (and some very unkind enablers) are impossible to resist so I'm back again with a completely different character than my last.

This is Starfire, from the animated Teen Titans series! In her past life she was an alien princess who was part of a teenaged crimefighting team who lived in a giant letter T and had the exact sort of adventures you'd expect from that description. In StE she is Apollinariya Volodymyrivna Miroshnychenko, a Ukrainian college student who's transferred to Locke U to have better facilities to pursue astrophysics. Don't worry, she's kind enough to introduce herself as Kara here.

Anyway, I'm super psyched to be back! My plurk is still [plurk.com profile] singing_monk so feel free to shoot a private plurk there or a PM to this journal for plotting. Or we could toss around some pre-established cr or something here, idk it's been a while since I last made an intro.

So in this post, Kotetsu had the idea of capturing a sniffer dog to see if they could discover how/why they're able to sense numbereds

The prevailing idea at the moment seems to be Octavia ([personal profile] drama8om8) mind-controlling one of the handlers to drop their dog off somewhere.

SO. Things we would conceivably need for this plan:

-A "safe" drop-off location somewhere out of the way

-Someone to receive said dog and who could restrain it/take it to somewhere where science-y things can be done

-Backup in case things go terribly wrong

-People to do SCIENCE

-Distractions so people don't get suspicious about where the dog handler is randomly going by themselves and to cover their trail as they go to the drop-off point

ALSO apparently Mordin is in possession of some hellhound-blood from the Halloween party? So maybe that'd be useful somewhere in the scienceing.

I'm thinking all this would go down sometime after the drug bust plot? Once we come up with a gameplan, we can ask the mods how it would go and take it from there in putting up logs/posts ic!

EDIT: So here's what we've got so far!

-Ray and Dians are on distraction

-Octavia is mind-controlling a handler, which she needs a picture or video or something of (I'm thinking Kotetsu can most easily provide this unless another network cop wants to!)

-Shiro is receiving the dog (at some location still to be decided)

-Suzaku is providing a basement for SCIENCEing

-The Luteces are our scientists! Totally still open to more scientists tho

Hello, STE! I am Amanda, and I'm completely new to the game.

I am bringing in Marzio Bosco, who was originally Marco Bodt from the anime/manga series Attack on Titan. The most important thing about Marco is that he died. 8|b

Marzio is a very much alive 13 year old who spends too much time mothering people older than him. He goes to the local junior high and he actually doesn't remember the naked giants. Yet. His first echo was kind of terrible. (And by terrible I mean all he got from it was freckles. Where's the joy in that?)

Anyways! You can reach me at [plurk.com profile] daintily, or at "man grit" on AIM if you ever need me for anything! I look forward to the game. o9

Hello, this is Ymir/Blaine Frost-mun, bringing in my second character. Who, despite of what the subject line suggests, is not actually all that much like Ymir... Because while she is tall and her concentrated expressions tend to be read as angry or furious, she's a pile of shyness and moe on the inside.

Well, something like that. Meet Siiri Pulkkinen, doing her PhD in biochemistry at the Locke university as a part of a very high profile, but pretty niche project. Since she is too bad at the people thing to earn money through teaching, she works at a coffee shop to not make her bank account cry. It's an independent shop somewhere in the better areas of relatively central Locke, you might have seen her around there. She is tall, doesn't say more than necessary and speaks with the type of light accent remaining after two years of living mostly isolated from one's own language in a country. Her mother tongue is Finnish, and she is from a countryside town in northeastern Finland. Her first echo also gave her the ability to understand Swedish pretty well...

...which brings us to her preincarnation, The Kingdom of Sweden from Axis Powers Hetalia - his female canon AU does not have enough canon at this point to be appable, though I will use the canon AU's looks for Siiri. That means that Siiri is the cisfemale human Finnish reincarnation of the cismale Swedish nation. At this point, there are however no plans to have her remember that she ever was anything but cisfemale - we will see how this goes.

Shoutout to all Nordic/Nordic-heritage reincarnations, if there are any in game, Siiri has been fairly present in the community over the last two years so there might be pre-established CR?

Hi, I'm Gilbert, and I'm throwing in my first character here; Åsa. She's a Swedish designer and has been in Locke city for about a year. Your character might have seen her around a lot if they frequent the same cafe where she gets her regular intake of coffee from (spoiler, it's the same place that Siiri works).

But she's fluent in English and her accent isn't as harsh as it was. While she was a bit insular when she first moved, she's opened up now, and she's incredibly personable, so if you want to establish pre existing CR with her I'm all up for it! She works during the day, and she's 26. She's not the type to go clubbing, but can occasionally be found in bars, she'll also frequent craft stores and other little independent type places, and she also just spends a lot of her free time out and about, often with a sketch pad because she finds ideas come to her better in the open air than at home. She's also likely to have latched onto anyone else originally from Europe, especially from the Nordic area.

Her preincarnation is Finland from that anime/manga/webcomic with the personified Nations. She's a cismale reincarnated as a cisfemale, since there isn't enough canon information on the canon genderswaps.

If anyone wants to get a hold of me for anything, I'm on plurk under [plurk.com profile] purplefluffychainsaw. I'm GMT, but I work evenings so I can be on at funny times.

Hello, hello good people of StE. I'm Sire and I was here briefly with another kid before deciding that he just wasn't quite working for me. So instead, I am dragging along this fellow, the Signless from that crazy webcomic about saving universes and whatever. Not important, right?

Here he is Kavi Verma, a guidance councilor at the highschool that only moved into the city at the start of the school year ( sorry kids, he wants you to go to college and get good grades and stuff ). Unfortunately, or fortunately, he also has a nephew. Three guesses to who that might be and the first two are likely throwaways. Anyway, yes, he is related to Karson ( I blame Linda for that entirely - she's no good ) and his neighbor will likely be intro-ing later as soon as she realizes she has been accepted to the comms.

I think that's all I have... It is late and my stomach is telling me that ignoring dinner to edit icons was not a good idea.

If anyone wants to throw a line my way my plurk is composertan and my AIM is spiralcadence.
