Hello! Jisu here with Anna Fugo from GRANBELM, known as Wolfsbane here. She's a stuck-up rich girl from an old mage family and has some serious anger issues, and her sin is Envy. Those of you who saw her in Unknown Seas may know what you're in for, but to all of you, I'm very sorry.

For those of you who don't have me added yet, my Plurk is jisusushi and I'm always in the Discord too!

[pioailurophobia]

good thing tdm threads aren't canon huh,

[iserveeverybody]

Bad news Anna you have a mom now and she can handle being yelled at.

[guffawsungraciously]

hey anna do you want to know how to best address your object of... pure rage honestly

[crisantemo]

Lapis is now here to Officially try to keep an eye on Anna

Keyword is "try"

[pioailurophobia]

N'yello! I'm Doom (TheDoomkitten), and I'm bringing in Mordred from Fate/Apocrypha, with their Executor title being Kingslayer. They're a reckless, bloodthirsty, not-at-all-chivalrous, and on very rare occasions kind knight with some serious anger issues, and their sin is Lust. Mordred is a bundle of trauma and half-resolved complexes at their current canon point and may or may not have (they totally did) destroy an entire kingdom just to prove themself to their father in a wonderful display of what happens when you combine inferiority issues with a superiority complex.

Note: Mordred's entire gender identity is very "???" as they were written by a cis person who accidentally put a whole lot of Gender in their character arc, so I play them as a nonbinary lesbian, but honestly I'm down for all interpretations.

Anyways, have Mordred being an Actual Factual Cat.

[mementomoritz]

Medic loves cats and has no social grace at all. I'm sure this will be fine.

[guffawsungraciously]

I mean he's gotta admit, that's all pretty relatable...

[guffawsungraciously]

HEY THERE... my name is Ran, and I’m bringing you a trash fire! This here is Jasper from Dragon Quest XI, though he’ll be called White Eagle for a while... and for a while, he’ll be pretty decent! Kind of a big ol’ tsundere, maybe a little arrogant (he’s got the sin of Pride going on!), but alright enough. But there might be a weird undercurrent of something... darker there. Well, I’m sure that’s nothing. He definitely won’t start becoming an evil wizard when he starts regaining his memories.

Anyway, I’m RandomProphet! I’m also on Discord at ranrannerson#7224, but it’s a lot easier to get ahold of me on plurk.

[emberserker]

evil wizard you say,

[crosscutting]

What's up losers, I'm Casey and this is my shitty horrible daughter Cassidy from Sleepless Domain, a magical girl webcomic that is super happy and fluffy all the time and definitely has no traumatic content or troubling worldbuilding whatsoever! Cassidy is going by Pariah these days and has the sin of Envy. She's cute and cheerful and very eager to do a GOOD JOB and SAVE PEOPLE and JUDGE YOU FOR THINKING ABOUT BOYS i mean what. ...okay, so she has maybe a few unresolved issues and a lot of societal assumptions she has never unpacked in any way whatsoever, but it's probably fine.

You can find me over at Gryphcat, and my Discord is gryphcat#5471!

[pioailurophobia]

there's a solid chance kingslayer will join pariah in the misandry corner

[mementomoritz]

Team "runs with scissors" is a go.

[iserveeverybody]

Hello! I'm Eric (overbringer) and I have inflicted Alice on you, from the short Webcomic Alice Grove. Here, however, she will be going be Relic, which is quite an accurate description of what she is: A left over from a long dead civilization that has no place in the modern world save as a curiosity. Her sin is Sloth.

Alice is an immortal bioweapon shaped like a human who took place in a war 5000 years ago over AI rights. She is a sarcastic asshole who was built with a compulsion to help people. The people who built her didn't want to have her deciding she wanted to become the boss, after all. She is here to be rude to everyone and also to ruthlessly mom you all whether you want it or not.

She's also done some REALLY violent things, so if references of blood, death, and violence bother you please let me know and I'll avoid them around your character as best I can.

I'm still working on her infopost but I'll get it up before the end of the weekend probably maybe.


Alice is good with children

[pioailurophobia]

KINGSLAYER DOES NOT NEED A MOM FUCK YOU

(Kingslayer ABSOLUTELY needs a mom.)

[beknights]

hello everybody i'm Ruka rukafais and I am bringing a mute child soldier/sacrifice who is a morass of trauma they havent even remotely addressed underneath a thin veneer of very tired formality and is also a six foot bug with one arm and some gnarly scars. This is the Hollow Knight from the game of basically-the-same-name, though for their time here they'll be called Seal.

They are a centuries old overgrown extremely anxious teenager deep down and basically all they know how to do with certainty is Be Stoic In The Face Of Uncertainty and Violently Terminate Problems. Please be nice to them they're trying their best. Their sin is Sloth, for reasons.

[iserveeverybody]

Alice isn't a GREAT parental figure but I figure she can't do much worse than the OTHER parental figure in the Hollow Knight's life.

[mementomoritz]

Hey everyone, I'm Echo and I'm here with my terrible awful science gremlin OC. Her name is Mercy Moritz, although around here she'll be known as Medic.

Not to be confused with that other blonde medical prodigy named Mercy.

She's a teen genius who is utterly obsessed with medicine and all biological sciences, hence her sin of Greed for knowledge. Her old day job was using a pair of surgical scissors almost as big as she was to fight animals that a partially-successful alien terraforming attempt mutated into giant ravenous monsters. She has to know all the things, including and especially Things Man Was Not Meant To Know. She's very happy to be here and has all the tact and subtlety of a brick to the face. She will probably ask you if she can dissect you. She may ask more than once. She will definitely try to dissect some of the enemies you end up fighting, probably while you are fighting them.

Please do not let her Frankenstein together the souls of your fellow restless dead.

[beknights]

i'm sure they'll have an extremely normal friendship

[alcahest]

NICE TO MEET EVERYONE i'm isa (phaseblast) and i bring with me cardia beckford from code:realize, an otome game in a steampunk setting where all the romance options are famous literary characters!

cardia herself is a homunculus and clone of a dead girl, created solely to contain an in-progress philosopher's stone; the chemical reaction of its development has the extremely unfortunate side effect that she is lethally poisonous to the touch, and contact with her bare skin will rot and melt through any material. she's been called a doll and a monster all her (short) life so she has some uhhhhh self-esteem issues. her app is here if you want a more thorough overview!

here in purgatory, her executor title is magnum opus (a term which refers to attempts at creating a philosopher's stone) and she has the sin of lust bc claire can't resist a joke. since she wasn't originally intended to have emotions, the loss of her memories will make her much more of a blank slate than everyone else and she'll have to relearn self-actualisation from scratch. she isn't poisonous right now and won't be until she remembers she's supposed to be, but she will have an instinctive fear of being touched.

i'm looking forward to playing with everyone and can't wait to get started!!

[emberserker]

so why didn't they just call her beatrice when all the other characters have the names of their fictional counterparts, i never understood that

[crypddyd]

Hey folks this is Jess, and I'm bringing in Dimitri from Fire Emblem: 3 Houses, though here he's gonna be going by Lion!. He's a good sad boy but is kinda going through some shit right now so please excuse any bouts of murder or angst. Unsurprising to anyone that has played the game his sin is Wrath but I think I made a good argument for the Big Murder Honry too tyvm.

All jokes aside though once I have all his info up I'll have an opt-out for both spoilers and some Heavy Mental Health Stuff(tm) so please keep a lookout for that. If you wanna pester me I'm raspberrydrink over on plurk!

[alcahest]

i need to finish my blue lions playthrough huh..............

ANYWAY i'm excited to see dimitri go feral as he gets memories back. rei please institute mandatory group therapy for the executors

[crisantemo]

HI HELLO I'm Jay and I shall be bringing in one disaster OC called Lapis De Fiore. She's a lineface with a horrible stubborn streak and can be lowkey troll when the mood strikes her, and has been able to see the dead her entire life. This may have warped her views on morality and death a little, and has in later years started working with things like... demons. Also is dating her worlds version of Cthulhu so yeah... But when it comes down to it, she does mean well and always tries to help others despite having zero social graces.

Here she'll be known as La Luna and her sin will be Pride, which is great cause her pride got her killed once and almost got her killed again. And when she gets her memories back she's gonna be Upset that it actually stuck this time.

But I'm looking forward to playing with everyone, and feel free to hit me up over on my plurk at floriographies!

[daughterofthemark]

Dating the horrible abomination. Why didn't Arianna think of that?

[daughterofthemark]

HELLO I am Andrusi with a triangle and I have here an Arianna. She's a good girl who will only bring good things and I think most of you know that already. Here she has been titled Royal Veil after one of her skills that sounded like it would make a decent title and her sin is Gluttony because it just is okay.

If you don't have me on Plurk yet, I'm Andrusi.

Join her cult.

[alcahest]

IT'S BEEN FIVE HUNDRED YEARS SINCE I PLAYED IN A GAME WITH ANDY......!!

[seasharp]

hey there executors it's ya girl, rem!

I'm bringing in one Sayaka Miki, from Urobuchi's Magical Kid Friendly Adventures, aka Puella Magi Madoka Magica. She's a fun cheerful tomboy with a hero complex that suffers an unnecessary amount because she's not allowed to be happy. Being a magical girl did not, uh... work out great for her. Overall. In Can Cry, her title is Ariel and she's repping the sin of Pride! You know how pride cometh before the fall? Ha ha. Yeah. Boy. Falling sure took place.

If you wanna add me on plurk, I'm over at remaix! My Discord's over at Remaix#1545 if you prefer that instead! ♪

[emberserker]

Person from a dark magical girl show, meet person from a mecha show with dark magical girl elements. Aside from, you know, the. Other thing they have in common.

[pride_of_amarcia]

Hello! I am Incardine (he, she, or they all fine, because genderflux), and I bring one (1) Brainiac, aka Pascal from Tales of Graces.

She is a nigh-irrepressible ball of happy energy, and she wants to study things and cheer people up! Studying things may be more important than eating, sleeping, and bathing properly.

Her sin is Gluttony, though in this case that ties into her hunger for knowledge more than literal food obsession (though she will chomp through certain foods, particularly bananas, very quickly). The good news is she's unlikely to start nibbling on people anytime soon! The bad news is she will need to be dragged to the bath house.

I am on Plurk at NekoIncardine and in the game Discord for communication purposes.

[daughterofthemark]

watch out brainiascal you have a gluttony buddy who might in fact literally drag you to the bathhouse

[phantasmagorial]

🤡

anyway, tomfoolery aside, HELLO, let me introduce you to a very good girl named Rei whomst you may recognize from Sad Girls Kicking Ass Magical Girl Action RPG Crystar. As you might have gathered, Rei happens to be one of said Sad Girls who becomes an Executor to restore order to Purgatory and all that jazz. She has a sword, it fucking rocks.

In Can Cry, she'll be serving as a sort of middle ground between a mod NPC and just being the character I play in game because I didn't want to miss out on threading with everyone 😔 Must have CR!!!! She's quiet and kind of socially awkward but if you manage to befriend her then she will Die For You without hesitation. Please protect her.

also as a final note: it's VITAL to me that everyone knows that Rei is canonically 4'9'' and i go fucking apeshit every time i think about it. SHE IS SO SMALL

[emberserker]

she

[schardynfreude]

sup fools, I'm Shawna, and this trashfire that never goes out is Ardyn Izunia from FFXV. He's also known by...a lot of other names. I'm Sure That's Not Important. The important thing is that everyone here will know him as Your Majesty for a while! He's...he's gone through some stuff and boy oh boy he's going to start out, same as everyone else, quite different from how he is in the game because...uhhhhh well I mean. Sometimes fate fucks you up real hard like that! He's either going to be kindly uncle or absolute xanatos speed chess playing nightmare. If you're lucky, maybe both! His sin is wrath bc some people are literally walking apocalypses look shh it's okay it's not important for now.

He's basically a huge walking spoiler, but the game's also a couple years old now, so... But I'm definitely going to get a permissions post up for him because ha haha hahaha boy his history's going to be full of wacky shenanigans that should probably be warned for!

I'm on the game's disco server to hit up, and also shadowesque

[herowalksalone]

Casually sliding in late (and memeless) here to say hello! I'm Kristina, and I'm playing Kazuya Takeda (the Hero) from the original Shin Megami Tensei, known as Hope here. Since he's a silent protagonist, my spin on him is that he's actually been following everyone else's lead and has a hard time doing things himself. So he's a hero on one hand and a lost puppy on the other, and he's Envious of others' ability to lead themselves. It'll be a good time for everyone.

I'm pretty new to DWRP, though I've known about it since it was LJRP. I currently play Emille at Daybreak Academy, as well. I have a Plurk at darkestsilver -- add me and I'll add you! Though I admit I'm not the most active Plurker, I do check it at least once a day. Nice to meet everyone, and I'm looking forward to the game!
