GREETING PARTY NOVEMBER EDITION

[animusmods]

As Animus gets more and more players, we realized that instead of having a lot of OOC new player posts and making it harder to keep track of all of them, we could have everyone meet and greet each other in a single post and have a MASSIVE GREETING PARTY!

The rules are simple:
- Anyone with an accepted character this round starts a new thread greeting themselves & their new character(s)
- Everyone else replies about how they are excited for these characters
- PROFIT
- GET EXCITED
- PARTY TIMES!

View top-level comments only to see the introductions without their attached threads.

Hello, Animus! Kiyuu here, bringing in character number four, and yet another character from the strange, strange mind of that Nasu guy. Also Gen Urobuchi, so you know what kind of shit must have gone down.

This here is Irisviel von Einzbern of Fate/Zero fame. She's a loving wife, caring mother, all around kindhearted and sweet lady, and really not someone you want to mess with! She may seem fairly harmless but she can put up a fight if she wants to. She was also at one point the Lady to Saber's (the blue- er... black one) Knight, so fair warning: anyone interested in picking on her is in for a world of suffering.

I'll be taking her from the end of the series, so be warned that there will be spoilers in her intropost at the very least. Other than that, I'll keep them to a minimum!

So... yeah! I'm horrible at intros so HELLO AGAIN CAN'T WAIT TO START PLAYING HER ETC ETC....

[eighteen_winters]

MOMMY!

But seriously really looking forward to having Illya and Iri reunite, Illya needs some happy in her life.

[angramaintsu]

lesser grail fistbump

[culbutiri]

Yay! More Fate/Zero :D

+1 (more) insufferable woodelf

[tofindthesun]

and that's how/why the tower was built

LET'S HOOOOPE I'M DOING THIS RIGHT HI my name is the scarlet, here with terror #2 yet another!!! legolas of the taking the hobbits to isengard infamy. he's tetchy, he's wary, he could be scared of his own shadow (and with good reason, seriously), he's not from the end of gimli's lifestory, he's not 74920783509 years old, and he's not clint barton or hawkeye. (spoiler: he is.) if you really want to see his application is over here though i will compile shit into a less massive, less applicationy post later to detail the alternative universe worldhopping thing.

but alas.

AAAANYWAY he is a greencollar and is in room 1-04 c'mon girls let's have a not-so-welcoming party. i can be reached at lacqueried@aim (but really dont' do that) or rancors (please do that). just know that if you add me on plurk you will be subjected to plurks about art and school and the hobbit (30 DAYS!!!!) and all the other rude and crazy people on my timeline (like tracy and dagger).

I LOOK FORWARD TO ALL THE TROUBLE WE'LL GET INTO

psstt add me i won't bite

Re: +1 (more) insufferable woodelf

[attheclocktower]

... you get massive massive props from me for that picture alone. omg.

Hi my name is Gorse and I play Xion from Kingdom Hearts. Hope you have a great time here!

[ceasetoexist]

Howdy howdy folks! It's James here, player of your local Lucifer, bringing in another blonde haired asshole. This one is Pokey Minch from the video game Earthbound. For those not in the know, Pokey here is a child prodigy of sorts who came from a dysfunctional and abusive family, and that "sort" is being a cunning little asshole. At around the age of 12-13, Pokey's managed to be a high priest in a cult, work as an investment adviser to a tycoon, and be the right hand of an invading alien overlord. He's a smart, technologically savvy, and mean little boy.

To add to that he's coming from a game where he's had about three years of development, specifically from Mayfield_RPG. You can read a bit about how that experience has changed him here, but in short it's the tale of a boy who didn't know kindness, or at least didn't recognize it except in very narrow circumstances, coming to learn it through the kind of circumstances anyone who was used to having some kind of control having that stripped from him and being left defenseless someplace with a bunch of strangers who would kill him in a place he didn't know. Essentially Pokey has toned down quite a bit and skirts more along the lines of neutrality rather than flat out evil after everything that has happened to him. He's even learned to be tolerable to a small degree, though he remains a massive asshole in most regards.

Having been in a game for three years there's also quite a few people in the Tower Pokey knows versions of from his previous game. A list of who he knows can be found here, and I'm willing to discuss these issues/previous relations at greater detail if you want.

He'll be rooming in 1-04 and is orange collar, so enjoy your new roommate Dave and Allelujah! You can reach me on plurk at nathander

[forgetbeam]

Aaaah you can't believe how happy I am to see a Mother character around now!

[nonacquiescent]

Yo yo yo

This is Kelsey, who plays Mondo mustlovedogs, Lambdadelta stalemates and Vergil bloodright! I've got...two for you this time.

First up's this sad sack who adds another onto my list of 'people with strength complexes' (currently at 3 in Animus). Waver Velvet from Fate/Zero, tsun extraordinaire, etc. He's post-series and he's got a green collar and is in room 1-16.

Second is Kyrie Ushiromiya selfinteresting from Umineko no Naku Koro Ni. ...Same series as Lambdadelta, actually, but, Lambda couldn't care less about her and Kyrie doesn't know Lambda exists, so. She's actually in her 40's despite ANIME AGING and she's a mother of two :') One of them's in the tower, Battler (and also Black Battler, unsure). She's coming from the EP7 Tea Party and long story short, bluh bluh huge bitch. She's an orange collar and is in room 2-17

[wirefu]

oh gosh oh gosh we are gunna have so much fun, I really can't wait for Waver+everyone CR

+ One more Touhou

[colorfulbrilliance]

\o/ Hello again everyone! I'm Kati and last time I was here I kinda idled out. BUT I plan on not doing that this time. And I bring yet another Touhou girl with me!

Meet Hong Meiling! Meiling is the gate guard for the Scarlet Devil Mansion in Gensoyko. (See where this is going folks?) She is known in fanon to be lazy BUT that isn't quite true. She just gets bored easily with a boring job. (She's also secretly a Dragon Youkai in Fanon but I'm keeping that idea XD)

SO- Meiling here earns a Blue Collar and is rooming in 02-15, so enjoy your new roommate folks!

Re: + One more Touhou

[culbutiri]

HI KATI!!!!!

(It's Katy in case you didn't recognise the journal)

HOPE YOU HAVE FUN HERE!!!

+1 hobbit

[ringbearer]

Hi there!!! I'm Lizzie and I am very new at the moment. *A* I'm here with Frodo Baggins from The Lord of the Rings trilogy, and he just so happens to be AU because he had CR from livin' on a spaceship with Legolas and some other Ringers.. Also he has the Ring ( basically an object of pure evil/mass destruction ) so he'll be keeping that to himself, a-yup-yup. He comes from near the end of Two Towers so he hasn't finished his Quest yet. ALSO UM HE'S 3ft tall please don't step on him :C

I'm really excited to be here and looking forward to getting to know you guys and playing with you! Oh and you can contact me at: OHLIZZIE on Plurk!!!

[tofindthesun]

livin on a space ship

sounds so spectacular

ISN'T BE LIKE 3 feet 5 or something or 6 like merry IDK HOW TALL ARE THEY SUPPOSED TO BE

[egotist]

Hi Animus! I'm Starry and I'm brand spanking new to this place so please ignore any newbie mistakes I may make. I bring yet another Dangan Ronpa guy to the mix, this here is Byakuya Togami and he is rich and an asshole. So please, don't mind him. He just thinks he's the top dog. Also his canon involves being sealed up in an area where everybody kills each other, boy that doesn't remind you of anything does it?

He's also coming in from a very spoilery canon point, so if you need me to have spoilers off for threading let me know! I'll try to not use spoilers, hopefully it won't come up much outside of canonmate threads.

Collar color is orange and room number is 1-10! I can be reached at joltiks or believeinnexus on aim. Feel free to hit me up for anything.

...Oh! And I will have very limited access to a computer starting on Nov 15th till the following Monday. A sudden family trip was sprung up on me yesterday so please forgive me for that.

[forgetbeam]

So Togami has the most canon knowledge of this entire cast. There's no way this can go horribly!

HI my name is Shocky and I'm also relatively new. I just play this loser.

[depaysement]

Hey Animus! I'm a brand new player here, going by Mira, and I've brought in a face that may seem familiar. I'm bringing in Grell Sutcliffe of Kuroshitsuji, and for the canon unfamiliar this is the lady that caused the Jack the Ripper incident and happens to be a god of death. Classy, pretty twisted, flirtatious, and hailing from 1888.

However, this version is not the one you'd know and love. This version comes from one year post the end of edensphere. The summary version is that she got pulled into a world where she lost all her memories, renamed herself Juliet, and spent the next 2+ years regaining some memories and learning other careers besides the reaper business. And dealing in the black market with memories, long story When the game concluded and she recovered all her memories, she decided to continue going against her past, though accepting it through reaccepting the last name Sutcliffe. For the past year she's been travelling a bit about the multiverse, learning more about the modern world and running some information dealing while refining her tailoring skills. Notes on her former CR can be found on her permissions post, and I'm more than willing to chat about it if you'd like!

The end result of Edensphere gives you an ex-reaper who's much more relaxed, swears more frequently, in general has herself under better control, and has her scars. She's in room 1-17 with a violet collar on. For a full on infodump her app is here.

I'm so happy to meet you all!

[culbutiri]

Hey Mira! I'm Katy, welcome to Animus! One of my kids (Romeo) knew Grell last time we had one, so he will be interested (and happy) at a more relaxed Grell!

[idolizer]

Hello hello hello everyone!!! :DDD

I'm Elie and I'm fresh meat in this game, pretty much. Sparkly sparkly new, sparkle sparkle boo. I'm gonna give you this beautiful girl, Sayaka Maizono from the by now infamous game Dangan Ronpa which leaves everyone in despair, because of sadistic bear things and paywalls.

Sayaka is none other than the most popular idol of all Japan, having the title of Super High School Level Idol and therefore she's very much loved! She's nice, kind and friendly, the flawless kind of girlfriend everyone would love to have... until you get in the way of her career and dreams. Then she won't be as nice... did I mention she's going to bring a knife along? 8D

Her collar is violet, and she's going to reside in room 1-05, sharing with another Sayaka (the meguca version), Colette and Feferi. They should have sleepovers together. u3u

Feel free to add/contact me on either AIM under elieinverse, or Plurk with the handle elieinverse! I'm most likely to be found on Plurk tbh, I use AIM pretty scarcely. u_u

You have no idea how excited I am to play with my cast and the rest of you klshdkdhjdkhf ;___; <3333

[yougotthatwrong]

/secretly takes the knife away :|

[macedonian]

hello animoose

My name is Christy, and I'm completely new to Animus! And I'm bringing you the baddest motherfucker in the world. Okay, maybe not the baddest, but definitely the one mostly likely to be your new best friend.

Please welcome Rider from Fate/Zero, better known as Alexander the Great! Unlike most Servants, he's pretty open and friendly, so he really will be your new best friend. And it's also worth noting that his Master is this tiny loser, so it's kind of hilarious. But he enjoys fine literature, conquering and video games. Heck yeah.

He's post-series (:'(), with a violet collar, and in room 1-20!

so yeah... hi...
oh and p.s. if you want you can friend me on plurk at swagu

[nonacquiescent]

WOW HE'S NOT A LOSER DON'T TALK ABOUT YOUR MASTER LIKE THAT?!?!?!?!?

Rider is just the best bro. The bro-y-est of bros. I'm so excited...did you have any preference as to who posts first or runs into who? Ahaha

+1 cowpoke

[nightfowl]

Howdy Animus, Fil here, bringing you a character with a slightly different flavor than Purple McGrumpygills over there.

Here's Haken Browning, from Super Robot Wars Endless Frontier. He's a bounty hunter with a love of women, gambling, and kicking ass. A rather friendly and laid back guy, and will certainly be willing to lend a hand to whomever needs it.

I'm taking him post Endless Frontier fresh from the ending, so he's going to be surprised to see that he did not wake up next to a beautiful princess.

He's in room 1-08 and his collar color is orange.

Always up for plotting, and for those who don't know it my plurk is firemind

LATE FOREVER, FORGIVE ME

[flared]

Hello, everyone! Fresh meat here bring in Axel from Kingdom Hearts! Axel here is going to be taken from a particular game in the series with a strange title, 358/2 Days, in which, oh dear, there happens to be a lot of feels. ._.; He'll be arriving distraught and not very pleased to have been taken away from his Very Important Friend Business, but maybe he can find a friend or two to cheer him up enough so he can have a much needed nap. He likes naps. A lot.

But, yes! My name is Koko and I'm looking forward to playing with all of you! If you need to reach me for whatever reason, then feel free to drop me a PM, contact me from imsoflattered on AIM, or at plurk: kiokushitaka

[halfhearted]

Koko is a night critter or also known as a hooter. Care for the Koko night critter consists of a steady diet of innuendos and hugs.

[thelordsage]

Hello, everyone! This is Sami, player of Prussia here, bringing a second character into the tower! This is Sephiran from Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance/Radiant Dawn. I'm taking him from just before the battle with him, so he's going to be thinking that Ike and crew failed somehow and Ashera passed her judgment. Naturally, he's going to be pretty out of sorts.

He'll be living in room 3-10, and his collar color is green.

+1 furry (wait...)

[moonbound]

Howdy y'all. I'm Famine, fresh meat extraordinaire which doesn't really fit with the moniker I know. I'm bringing in a puppy.

...a very large, wild puppy who has the tendency to turn into a puppylike man. Oh and he's not really a puppy, he's a wolf. I apologize to his roommates in 2-12 in advance. Sorry guys, he doesn't always have a sense of shame and may end up sans clothes. At least he doesn't have rabies.

Anyway. This is Ken Hidaka from an AU version of the anime Weiss Kreuz where he and his team are supernatural beings keeping other supernatural beings in line. All in good fun!

I can be reached on Plurk or AIM, both at 'novatierrie'.

[redlikecrimson]

Hi there! I'm Erin and I'm freshmeat too. Today I bring you a vampire.

I'm also from the Weiss AU but rather than a wolf, Aya here is a vampire. He will be staying in room 2-08 so I apologize in advance to his roommates because AU!Ken will be visiting at times and he will likely be naked some of those times.

Anyway, I can be reached at neko142001 on AIM and Plurk.

Looking forward to playing with all of you!

[moonbound]

Or, y'know, a giant wolf. Or getting his neck/wrist/so on chomped on.

Fun times were had by all.

[apprenticemage]

Hello Animus! Adding another person to the freshmeat list, I'm Willow and I'm bringing in everyone's lovable tunnel vision dork Shirou Emiya from Fate/Stay Night.

He's taken from the manga adaptation, which incorporates elements from the UBW and HF routes but ultimately follows the Fate route pretty heavily. Think a good version of the anime. With his main love interest a darker AU, his secondary love interest a potentially even worse (ymmv) darker AU, his third potential love interest not here, and a guy here that wants to kill him... Well, it's going to be fun. xD

For contact, you can reach me at davismotoyima on AIM (yes it's a typo I made years and years ago of Davis from Digimon's name) or at everdistantutopia on Plurk. I'm still a newb to Plurk too so don't be surprised if I do some pretty stupid stuff.

Oh, and his collar color is indigo and he'll be staying in room 1-16

[swordedpast]

[STABS]

[hatesthefood]

Hey everyone! I'm Munin and I'm new to all of this! I'll be bringing in one Ken Hidaka (OU) from Weiss Kreuz. After all, who doesn't love soccer playing assassin florists? I'm pulling him from at the end of the Side B canon, which... will never be finished so, yeah.

Anyway, feel free to add soundofdrums on Plurk! I'm on there all the time!

[moonbound]

Hi :3 your thread looked lonely so I decided I'd crash it.

[timenoob]

Yo, guys! Name's Ming, and I'm fresh meat too. Also totally new to LJ/DW-style roleplaying, so apologies in advance if I do something super dumb.

I'll be joining the Puella Magi Madoka Magica bandwagon with an AU version of Homura Akemi which basically reverts her to her "Moemura" stage, details here.

Collar color is violet, and she's staying in room 2-05 with Solas Greine (Achuaur), Saki Konishi and... uh... OU!Homura Akemi. Man, you mods have a sense of humor.

I have a Plurk at colderfusion if you want to plot/talk/ANYTHING REALLY.

So yeah, see you around!

[prayed]

I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS.

I mean. I'm Fumika and I'll be your Kyoko for this evening~ I also play Mio Amakura from Fatal Frame, and aahh, you have no idea how super excited I am to have a Moemura in the tower! She's such a cutie and I really like how you've worked her for the purpose of her AU.

I'm alicorn on plurk and I'll be adding you in just a minute here! So excited~ ♥

[friendlyfiend]

Hi, Animus! I go by Feather and I am totally new to this game.

This is A'kin the Friendly Fiend from a discontinued D&D line called Planescape, which is full of philosophy and faux-Cockney and general planar weirdness. Back at home he runs a shop selling trinkets and magical items, but since he's limited to initial trunk equips he's going to have to find new avenues for being unnervingly nice to people.

His collar color is indigo and he'll be rooming in 3-18 along with Prussia, Enoch, and one of the Gamzees.

I don't have instant messenger or plurk or anything like that but I am always willing to talk via PMs or plotting posts.

[alephbet]

Hi Feather~~ Welcome! I know very little about Planescape but I do play D&D from time to time, so yay?

I'm Mini. I play Aleph (Shin Megami Tensei II), Katsuya Suou (Persona 2), Ryuunosuke Uryuu (Fate/Zero), and V/V (Angel Notes).

[notayoungkitten]

Hey, Animus!

I'm Nin and I am new here. I'm bringing you all a genderswap Revolver Ocelot. Her room 3-03, and her collar color is orange. She'll be rooming with Rose Egbert and Dark Precure. Biggest difference between this Ocelot and her canon counterpart is the fact that Ocelot is the birth mother of the Snakes, but she does have the added bonus of serious mommy issues as well

Oh, yeah. For contact, my AIM is ninael88 and my plurk is kamex. I'll also respond to PMs.

[alephbet]

Hi Nin! Welcome to the game, and enjoy your stay~ My name's Mini and I'll be your Aleph (Shin Megami Tensei II), Katsuya Suou (Persona 2), Ryuunosuke Uryuu (Fate/Zero), and V/V (Angel Notes) for this evening!

/laaate

[outlast]

HI ANIMUS. My name is Ren and I'm brand new here. I'll be bringing you Claire Redfield from Resident Evil. More specifically, after the events of RE: Degeneration, where she's a little older and more jaded than she used to be. The creepy stuff going on in this place will not be anything new for her, since she's been through hell and back quite a few times. She's generally pretty sweet, especially with kids, but her kindness tends to come with a side of sarcasm. As far as interests go, she's really into motorcycles and also apparently a big fan of Queen.

Her collar is orange and she'll be staying in room 03-01, with AU!Vriska, Sonata and Mio.

Feel free to add me on plurk @ crescents if you want! Looking forward to playing with all of you ♥

[alephbet]

Hi Ren! Welcome, I hope you like the game!

I'm Mini~ Aleph (Shin Megami Tensei II), Katsuya Suou (Persona 2), Ryuunosuke Uryuu (Fate/Zero), and V/V (Angel Notes) are my characters here.

I played Sherry once. Long ago.

[linesofdeath]

Hiya, everyone! Uh, Eq here with his 4th, and hopefully last character for a loooong while, Shiki Tohno from Tsukihime! He's basically one of the nicer dudes in the T-M world and also one of the more hax person living there.

...

It's alright though because he doesn't really like killing someone so he's not going to use his hax power unless it's reeeeeaaaallly necessary since it'd kill him if he uses it too much anyways.

...

Yeah I think that's it so carry on Animus.

...I think I'm forgetting something else, but I'm not sure what......

[alephbet]

who are you what do you want
