+1 Magical Teenage Superhero

[faithfulflame]

Hey there BNW this is Ax, Yuuna's player and I am bringing in a second character. This time, it's Rei Hino (or Sailor Mars) from the series Sailor Moon. This version is based on the manga incarnation, so she is not the boy crazy idol wannabe who constantly yells at everything and is instead a much quieter and more reserved girl with a hot temper. She might seem distant and cold at first but when she warms up to you then she may surprise you.

The BNW AU for her parallels the other castmates here as well as canon. She is a partially awakened Enlightened of the fire and psychic types who lives in a small shrine to a flame deity with her grandfather. She is a Kindred Soul, and thanks to that and her strange powers and accurate fortunes, Rei has a reputation as a somewhat odd but lovely girl who has an easier time dealing with Pokemon than people.

I'll get her on the AU planning post later but if you want to plot on Plurk feel free to contact me at axiomaticgrue

Reiiiiii...!

[faithfulflame]

Why, hello there!

[incousinswithyou]

Any thoughts regarding the current plot?

[faithfulflame]

I...honestly am not sure where to get Rei involved with this. Suggestions would be welcome though.

[incousinswithyou]

Right now, we've got it split into two groups. Haruka/Rise/Hotaru and Michiru/Usagi/Makoto. Last I heard, Minako is stalking one of the groups at a distance aaand will end up losing them and getting Artemis the Meowth instead.

Haruka's group is probably doing real fighting because they've got leveled Pokemon, while Michiru is babysitting scouting and manages to pick up two strays who had wandered off. We're aiming for a small fight/retreat, and to tie it all in, she'll inform Haruka of the enemy's location and the other group will get clean up duty. Or something like that. I'm gonna assume these threads are happening simultaneously for convenience.

....I can't remember why Usagi wandered off, but I think Makoto followed because she's worried...? Whoops.

Anyway! That's the gist of it. Rei could get picked up by any of the two groups if you want, though as for reasons for why she would leave Union.....idk. Psychic powers?? Not sure if she would have necessarily known any of the others, though you could hash that out too.

[faithfulflame]

*nod* Well Rei definitely isn't really up for a knock-down-drag-out fight just yet, but as for an excuse for Rei to leave Union that isn't too hard. She has a premonition of needing to be in a particular place at a particular time. I'd intended for her to wander outside this week anyway, because she'd have been getting restless.

That said, I think I'd rather not have her know anyone right off the bat! The idea of her meeting up with and building friendships is a huge part of why I'd apped =)

[incousinswithyou]

...alskdjf. Awwwww, I look forward to seeing that!

So if you want, maybe Rei could meet up with Usagi/Makoto or Michiru or all three of them?

[faithfulflame]

I think that sounds like an idea! Maybe just out and about, as I'd planned for her intro to be outside Union anyway. And she could possibly maybe help out on the plan?

Usagi-chan!

Hey there, other shrine maiden type character.

[faithfulflame]

O Hai

[somnambulatory]

If you like, we can plot some pre-existing CR? Jinxie and her family live in a little old style Japanese looking community of their own near the northwest corner of town closest to the Forest Shrine. It's an area known for having a lot of Ghost and Psychic Pokemon hanging out in it, and also a lot of Enlightened with similar sorts of powers, including more mundane stuff like fortune telling and making charms. I figure it's conceivable that these two have met in the past considering similar backgrounds.

[faithfulflame]

I think that could be good! Maybe these two knew one another a little bit, from being in those similar circles. Certainly enough to know one another's name, though I don't know what Jinxie's personality is like.

[somnambulatory]

Kind of quiet, sort of socially awkward, but friendly anyway. Also generally superstitious about kind of stupid things. She's also a Kindred Soul, so they have that in common.

[faithfulflame]

So. Two somewhat awkward girls. Maybe they'd actually be casual acquaintances? Possibly exiled to the creepy corner of the cafeteria?

[somnambulatory]

Yeah, probably something like that. Jinxie's probably come by Rei's shrine a few times to put some change in the donation box, too, since she knows it can be hard to keep those places in good repair.

[faithfulflame]

I like it! It sounds like a good starting point.
