Character Name: Yuuna Sugasawa

AU Info: Yuuna is a fairly easygoing young woman with a travel bug. She's not at all interested in staying in one place, and her heart is very much adventurous. She has a fairly relaxed nature in terms of how she interacts with other people, and she's very committed to uncovering more about the world and the world as it was. In a lot of ways she's very goofy, but Yuuna's serious side really comes out when there's danger or work to be done, particularly for the betterment of humanity. She's really creative as well, and loves to sketch or photograph things when she can.

Yuuna is both a (sometimes) volunteer at the medical facility and one of the instructors at a small martial arts school. During her school days, Yuuna was something of a floater, and an excellent student. Her teachers sort of humored her, and she ended up working almost all the way through programs for medical work and history...until she ended up getting bored and becoming a trainer. In a way, she sees working with Pokemon as a chance to do something good (and views her propensity for boredom as a massive character flaw), and after spending time getting ready has fairly recently started to go out and explore. Martial arts are one of her passions, and one of the few things she's managed to keep doing without getting bored.

She's still new to the game, about a month or so, but she's already gotten involved with the raid plot a bit and will likely keep sticking her nose into trouble. She'd mentioned to Banzu the idea of trying some sort of expedition out to see, and I've also toyed with the idea of her starting a kind of Explorer's League. It's a thought, and one I'd like to pursue, but she hasn't brought it up ICly.

Pre-Existing CR: Yuuna works with the doctors sometimes, using her medical training and not letting it go to waste, so if your character is involved with that then they may have met. Additionally, she's helped out at one of the school's dojo/gyms, so if your character is into fighting like that, or fitness classes, or stuff like that it's possible they've met? Or possible school friends, people who occasionally visit the bars, and maybe even fighter types who've seen her at local inter-dojo fighting tournaments or something?

Looking for: I'm looking for people who might be interested in doing long-distance trips outside Union, possibly for several days at a time and people who might be interested in a kind of explorer's support group. Fellow martial artists would be cool. And people who might be up for less serious things too. I'd really like for Yuuna to get a small CR circle who get exasperated with her, or who encourage her more wild tendencies. A night of ill-advised drunken revelry, stupid dares, that sort of thing.

Potential Connections: The medical center, martial arts gyms, around a decent but not exorbitantly expensive area of the Residential area, a favorite bar, these are all possibilities.

Other Info: Not really much to put here, Yuuna's a bit of a space case but means well.



Character Name: Rei Hino

AU Info:
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. She is beautiful (as in canon) but not really interested in that sort of thing (again, parallel of canon), and at least in her local area she's got a reputation for being a somewhat creepy, icy young lady.

Rei's just begun taking an interest in being a Trainer, and has taken her first baby steps outside of Union. She's begun meeting her other castmates, but still remains unaware of the destiny that binds them all together. She is, like canon, unimpressed with men and finds it hard to trust them...but she'll warm up with time. Hopefully.

Pre-Existing CR: Rei is a little guarded around new people, and as such she doesn't go out much. Schoolmates are a possibility, as are people who are interested in religion/would frequent Hikawa Shrine where she lives/works with her grandpapa. Fellow channeler/shaman types are also possible connections. Or people who may have heard of her "reputation" as a gifted fortune teller.

Looking for: Well, non-castmate CR I don't have much of yet. Rei's very new to BNW, and as such has not met too many people. I'd love for her to have someone to go rant to and interact with, and I'd honestly like someone to try hitting on her and have that develop into some sort of weird CR that could go negative or positive. Also, basically? She's new! Give me CR!

Potential Connections: Well, Rei frequents her shrine, but isn't terribly sociable yet, and as such beyond the neighborhood around it? She doesn't go many places.

Other Info: Not that I can think of!

Anything Else?:


Welcome to Jackass, Sailor Moon Style.

So. I literally just got here, and I saw that we had a Rei Hino.

This idiot is also a Hino with really not nice political parents.

Would you like to do something with that?

[faithfulflame]

Oh absolutely! I'm canonblind to literally every Tokusatsu that isn't Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers though, so you'll have to bear with me.

Maybe Eiji could a (long lost?) cousin? Or a member of a branch family? What did you have in mind?

[underwearfortomorrow]

It's all good! Long story short Eiji was a volunteer at an orphanage that burned down while he and all the kids were inside. He got pulled out and his family made such a big deal out of him being a "hero" that he basically disappeared off the face of the planet for two years.

I am cool with them being cousins or something! The Hino's could be a multi-branch cluster of nobles. If they were friends or semi-close he could have visited her at the shrine. He would do something like that.

[faithfulflame]

Hmm. Cousins would work pretty well, but Rei isn't really the type to get close to male family members (Thanks dad), so maybe they've met a few times...and he seemed alright to her? Probably did come by the shrine, even, but she probably never really took the time to get to know him beyond the surface.

But then he disappeared, and that wasn't entirely something she'd expected. Cue him turning back up and her being surprised, and actually happy to see him (and in a better position now to actually want to get to know him). How's that sound?

[underwearfortomorrow]

I like that a lot! And Eiji at least wouldn't have been pushy about wanting to be close before he disappeared. He's cool about space.

[faithfulflame]

then she'll be glad to see him back! Yay!
