ABOUT:

A microbiologist with a history of Bad Career Choices.

POWER NERFING: Despite being from a game where people like to inject themselves with suspicious substances and sprout a lot of extra eyes and limbs, Luis is just a normal guy so I don't have any strong preferences.
LAUNCH DATE: Slight preference for launch B, but launch A shouldn't be a dealbreaker Preferences in order from most to least preferred:
Option B
Option A (as I said before I won't be pressed if this one wins)
Option C (this one is my least favorite because it starts during a busy period at work and ends on Father's Day weekend when I usually have long-distance plans T.T)
DISCORD SERVER: Hell yeah
ANYTHING ELSE: VERY excited for puzzles!!

POWER NERFING: Yes, please. He's physically strong even without his curse power and with it he could potentially be game breaking.

CANON: 999: Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors
ABOUT:

Intelligent man who's unfortunately been in escape room hell TWICE in his own canon (with his sister) to test if telepathy is real. Why not get captured a third time for a hat trick?

POWER NERFING: He's a guy who's adapted without sight and can mostly navigate around without help. Also has a prosthetic left arm which you wouldn't be able to tell unless you touched it. It's less power nerfing and more adaptation as he'd need a laptop with a text to speech feature instead of a notebook. Also he can read Braille.
LAUNCH DATE: OPTION B because I will be out of town May 16 through potentially the 18th.
DISCORD SERVER: Sure!
ANYTHING ELSE: Actual quote from this man:
Snake: Why I'm shocked and appalled that guessing at random has not yielded better results!

[lockedmods]

We can absolutely provide accommodations so he can communicate, in whatever way you’d prefer. There will also be books available in braille once certain things in the house are unlocked!

Just let us know what you prefer—if a laptop works best, that’s what he’ll receive! It simply wouldn’t have Internet access and its functions would be fairly limited. Think like a Chromebook. Does that seem sufficient?

ABOUT:

A party ghost with an insatiable hunger for all the wrong things. From her canonpoint, has seen some shit while on a road trip with her friends. What kind of shit? Spoilers!

POWER NERFING: You can't exactly kill a ghost, so she'd have to be put in a body that CAN be killed. Preferably something that can consume things. Other than that she has the power level of your average 22 year old party animal, so no further nerfing is required.
LAUNCH DATE: B or C works
DISCORD SERVER: Yes please, I love those.

Ariane loves stories, music, and art, and she's adept with a radio. But there's also something a little off about her.

POWER NERFING: I'm good either way! Powers in Signalis are frustratingly vague, so I'm happy to play around with them in game or forgo them entirely.

POWER NERFING: I don't care either way! As a co-mod, I just like for players to be able to play their characters as they like, and I know the line between "powers" and "natural biology" can be pretty thin for some characters in ways that sometimes make play difficult. Just gathering data to see what will work best for the game.

A teenage martial artist who's been training for his whole life to master his trade. Chock full of confidence in his skills and pride in himself to the nth degree, he also suffers from a bad case of foot-in-mouthitis, a lack of forethought and thinking about the long-term, and a knack for getting himself wrapped up in the chaotic shenanigans of his world and the people around him. He also really loves ice cream.

POWER NERFING: I'm cool with either way! Ranma's a shounen protag in his own canon with the standard repertoire that comes with it (superhuman strength, durability, speed, the works) along with his curse after falling into a cursed spring where a girl drowned. So I'm fine with whether his shounenness gets nerfed or gone entirely or if his curse of GENDER™ is still with him or removed.
LAUNCH DATE: All those dates should work for me hopefully!
DISCORD SERVER: I'd be completely down for one!

CHARACTER: Shadow Milk Cookie
CANON: Cookie Run Kingdom
ABOUT:

This is the wrong journal and I don't feel like logging into the other one which is realeyesrealize but SHADOW MILK COOKIE. a cookie you ask??? Yes. He is a cookie. He is made of flour and sugar and filled with jam. He's also semi omniscient -- originally blessed with all the knowledge of his world of Earthbread, only to discover that the world's entire existence is based on lies. So!! He decided to just GO WITH THAT! Known as the ringleader of the five fallen Beast cookies, Shadow Milk Cookie is known for telling complex lies with a dollop of truth and seeks to bring chaos and disorder to the cookie world. He can shapeshift if powers are on! So he could potentially turn into a human. Or, at least, a humanoid. Beast cookies are close to fallen angels/eldritch abominations in cookie lore.

yes. Cookie lore.

POWER NERFING: A little power nerfing is ok but most of Shadow Milk's chaos gremlin energy lies in his powers of illusion and lies
LAUNCH DATE: C probably works best for me!
DISCORD SERVER: Yeah I like discord
ANYTHING ELSE: He's a very silly guy with a very silly voice

YOU DIDNT SEE ME COMMENT WITH THE WRONG JOURNAL OR ANYTHING HA HA HA

[lockedmods]

Hmmmm. I wanna confer with Asher on the illusions and lies stuff. I’m not against it even if we do general power nerfing, I just want a solution that works well for everyone and for the game. Could you tell us a lil more about how his powers work?

Also, he can absolutely remain a cookie if you prefer. Or he can be humanized! Totally up to you on what you want there. The house does not discriminate.

ABOUT:

A guy that woke up dead once. Thanks to a convoluted series of circumstances he spends a long, long night figuring out who he is, who killed him, and saving various people from death using his new ghost powers.

POWER NERFING: GOD HONESTLY A GOOD CHUNK OF THEM MIGHT HAVE TO BE? Sissel's power set is legit the anti-murdergame cocktail of reviving the dead, immortality and time travel. But I would love to keep at least his Tricks if possible
LAUNCH DATE: All are fine with me
DISCORD SERVER: ye
ANYTHING ELSE: I usually play him POST canon, which means he'd be a [spoiler]- so I would be interested in seeing if people are okay with that massive spoiler. It's an old ass game now, but it's also a spoiler that kinda runs the twist if you know it. Also I have a few others I'm considering but Sissel IS a puzzle game protag so he seemed really fitting.

[lockedmods]

Hi there! Both the mods are canon familiar and aware of the [SPOILER]. I think this is fine to app in, we might just ask you to have a permissions post or something for people to opt in or out of spoilers, if that works for you!

Regarding his Tricks—what are you thinking, exactly? We might be able to work with a limited power set there, and if we want to set some boundaries, we can say the house simply won’t permit certain things. Tell us what you’ve got in mind and we’ll see if we can work with it!

CHARACTER: Gavin Reed
CANON: Detroit Become Human
ABOUT:

Gavin was who I was logged in with, but you know what? Yeah. Gav basically exists as a foil character to one of the characters/pairs in his canon. He has zero development and is a walking meme. Asshole. The fandom both mocks and revels in the way he says “fuck” (11 second Youtube video; content notice for Gavin pulling his gun on Connor and being a terrible individual). Also very sorry to Astarion, but he and Gav have the same voice actor.

POWER NERFING: No to nerfing! I mostly play humans without powers so it wouldn’t affect most of my characters, but I think it would be cool to let everyone with powers do their thing.
LAUNCH DATE: C. Second choice B.
DISCORD SERVER: Yes! Love them. I feel like they help make OOC communication easier and more casual.
ANYTHING ELSE: Full disclosure, I’ve only ever TDM’d at a murder game before (I don’t remember the name but it was on a ship) but I think they’re cool and I was just wondering if there were any going on right now. Also wanted to post to the interest check to +1 having a TDM, if the mods are up for it! Anyway I think killing Gavin would be a 10/10 event.

[uhbjection]

This is no problem! (head mod Emily here.) we’re thinking we’re probably going to do a tdm/open mg meme on the OOC comm the end of this week! We’ll have some prompts related to the house and the setting and let people explore a little. If that sounds appealing, I hope you join us!

CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: Long John Silver
CANON: Treasure Planet
ABOUT:

It's your good friend and galley chef, Long John Silver! He's an old sea dog and looks pretty imposing when you combine his size with his cybernetic attachments, but behind that lies a kind-hearted personality. He's always available for a chat or to give an encouraging word or two where it's needed. Silver's nothing more than a humble cook, but you can always count on him to lend a willing and comforting ear.

POWER NERFING: Silver's Cybernetics can do a variety of things, but I figure that'd be nerfed down to his cybernetic hand staying a hand and his cybernetic eye only being able to see regularly (rather than being able to zoom in, xray vision, thermal vision, etc). Though if it stil got to change color when he feels certain emotions, that'd be swell!

CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: Newt Geiszler
CANON: Pacific Rim
ABOUT:

You'd have to be either incredibly stubborn, insane or obsessed to be one of the last two holdouts of the Pan Pacific Defense Corps Science Division this far into the Kaiju Invasion, and Newt is all that and more. Dr. Newton Geiszler ("Call me Newt! Only my mother calls me doctor.") is loud, brash, impulsive, tactless, brilliant and oftentimes, nigh manic. He's so obsessed with the Kaiju destroying humanity that he's gotten every one of them tattooed on his skin, and talks about them excitedly and at length to anyone who might inquire about them, whether they do so with interest or disgust. He'd probably have been fired by now, at least twenty times over, if he wasn't so damn smart and good at his job, that being the world's premier scientist on the Kaiju and their physiology. He's definitely gotten punched more than once for enthusing at the wrong person, though.

POWER NERFING: Newt is just a regular Human, he's just really smart! Depending on where I take him from he could have some lingering Kaiju hivemind link if there's something with power fluxuation (akin to like a power motive in other MGs) (not that that's a power, it's just Mindfuckery), but otherwise he's A Normal Dude.

LAUNCH DATE: A or C work for me! If it's B I'll be on vacation during endgame alas u_u
DISCORD SERVER: Yes pls!! We love a discord server in this house.

A stubborn scientist with a non-ideal view on what the ideal world looks like.

POWER NERFING: His healing ability will be 100% nerfed. His "hivemind" ability (the ability to tap into others' minds and create a hivemind-like connection) would be 100% nerfed. His metal skin would be softer/more human so he can be killed with blades and such.

Couple clarifying questions re: Anemone's badger friend!

1. Would the badger be, like, physically on her person at the canonpoint you're taking her from? On her lap, in her arms, anything like that?
2. Is the nature of the support something she wouldn't be able to do without for longer than a couple weeks? That is, if there's an opportunity to be reunited halfway through the month rather than arriving with him, would Anemone be okay in the meantime?

ABOUT:

A florist and apothecary who recently moved into town with her adopted son and pet (???) owl after living in the woods for literal decades. Actually being a witch is the least of her secrets. Despite not looking at all like one, basically a nice grandma (unless…?)

POWER NERFING: She has healing magic, which is most likely what's going to get nerfed, and I'd bring her down to normal-human-levels of sturdiness. She also has a prosthetic arm, but the only real notable thing about it is that the fact it can move and function like a regular arm is due to magic.

CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: Wistful Dreams Shrouded in Velvet (or just "Velvet")
CANON: Original Character (Exalted TTRPG)
ABOUT:

Former midboss who thought she could cope with life-changing trauma by becoming a workaholic to a terrible being of a boss. She found out the hard way that is not how it works and now has to live with the consequences of several questionable (poor) (bad) (terrible) decisions. Immense pathetic wet cat energy and in dire need of rehabilitation for poor social skills.

POWER NERFING: I 100% will nerf her into the ground because Exalted is the sort of game that operates on xianxia logic which would make her extremely difficult to kill, plus her skillset includes necromancy and being able to talk to the dead. She does have magic involving dolls, and I'd be interested in letting her keep it with some tweaks since it might offer some interesting IC options.

LAUNCH DATE: In order, B > C > D > A
