CR MEME: EPISODE II



We've got new people, we've got old people, the only thing we haven't got is a CR meme. Oh wait-



You know what to do.

NAME: Dove
CONTACT: PM this journal or PP [plurk.com profile] prettydoes. Friending my plurk is fine, but I prefer to friend people over there because we're going to be socializing ooc rather than because we happen to be in the same game.
TIMEZONE: CST
INTRO: Main thing to know about me rp-wise is that I'm most available on weekends because my work days tend to be long. As far as Dove-the-person goes: old movies, old music, children's books, cultural history, shrieking about the movie star signatures I saw at work on any given day, memes, writing, cooking-baking-ice-cream-making, and more idk.

CHARACTER NAME: Beth Greene
CHARACTER A/S/L: 18 / f / Barrayaran camp
CHARACTER INTRO: Beth is a nice high-school girl from Georgia who survived the zombie apocalypse right up until she didn't (though she doesn't know that yet). She loves babies, singing, friends, and trying not to be catatonically depressed. Her permissions page has some first-impression deets as well as the thematic material her character deals with.
STATUS: She's been healing some more from her injuries from home! The stitches are gone (though the facial scars remain), but she's stuck with the cast for another two weeks or so. She also went on perimeter scouting, cleaned up after horses, stirred groats, became a lady's maid, and finally got a knife. The last thing is the best thing.

THIS MONTH she's going to help capture the traitor in Barrayar and will probably be doing a fair amount of chores, horseback riding, scavenging for edible plants if possible???, practicing with swords, and eventually hanging out with Daryl "several possums inside a human disguise" Dixon if he defects.
CR YOU WANT: GREAT QUESTION. I'm open to positive, negative, and complicated CR, and I'm excited about what you might be excited about, but here are some possibilities:

FRIENDS AND CONFIDANTES: Beth's made a few potential friends, and I'm always happy to encourage more. It takes her time to trust others these days, but if you're close to her age or clearly not a creep don't be ambiguous like Byerly, she's much more likely to warm up pretty quickly.
RIVALS AND ALIENATED INDIVIDUALS: Like last month, I feel like I'm just saying "anything" with more words, but I want to make clear that if you're interested in pissing Beth off, frightening her, or otherwise making things weird and complicated, I'm completely here for this. Beth's not necessarily going to be super impressed with people who won't pull their weight, for instance. Anyone who seems like they could be physically dangerous or sexually demanding toward her can set her on edge, too, because of some of her experiences at home. But she's also just plain willing to call a jerk a jerk, so there are plenty of options that aren't, like, Serious Fuckin Damage areas.
MUSICIANS: I'm just saying, she sings and plays a few instruments. If your character also does, they could definitely bond.

CR YOU CAN PROVIDE:

ARGUMENTS: Beth is p. stubborn, and her current tolerance for putting up with other people's bullshit is still on the low side. Would you like an 18-year-old girl to yell at you? Because that can probably be arranged.
TAG-ALONG: She also just spent a bunch of time trapped inside a hospital where everyone was shitty to everyone else and there were hardly any windows, so being out in the sunlight and doing things suits her.
UNLIKELY TEACHER: On the other hand, she already knows a little about living like the Barrayarans. She knows how to do such varied shit as ride horses, feed cattle, garden, start fires with a mirror and a piece of glass, braid hair, use a hunting knife, scavenge for supplies, shoot guns, doodle, sing, play piano, play guitar, upcycle jewelry, and do some basic first aid. Maybe your character could stand to learn to do things, too.
LIKELY STUDENT: She doesn't know how to use a sword, just knives and guns. >> There's no doubt other stuff she could learn, too!
