amaniooc | Check-in + Character Claims (June)

CHECK-IN
While Amani doesn't have an Activity Check proper, it'd still be nice to know how everyone is doing!

Going forward, check-ins + character claims will be more or less the same thing for players already in the game! To know who has already claimed what characters, please check the previous post.

The purpose of this post is to:
★ Give a small summary of what your character has been up to
★ General plans/ideas you have
★ See what characters are present and welcome new people coming into the game!

TEMPLATE

★ If you JOINED IN LATE MAY and don't have a lot to summarize, that's totally fine! Giving a game plan instead or ideas of what you'd like/hope to do is fine as well! Basically, it's just a way for me to count heads and see who's still interested in hanging around.

CHARACTER CLAIMS
Welcome to Amani! We're happy you're here.

The basic guide to claiming a new character is:
★ Copy and paste the claim form to the comments below.
★ Fill out the subject line with: Character | Canon (CRAU if applicable)
★ Amani does not do claim challenges. Character claims submitted will be on a first-come, first-serve basis. Make sure you check before placing a character claim!
★ Once your character is claimed, please head on over to the taken page to make it official official!

★ MOD NOTE: If you claim a character this month, you do not have to check-in until next month! TEMPLATE

PLAYER
Name: Your name/handle
Invited by: The name of who invited you
Contact: plurk, discord, pm, etc.
Other characters, if any: put their journal here or n/a. if applying two characters in one round, this would be the place to mention that!

CHARACTER
Character Name: Your character's name in either Western or Eastern order
Canon: Name of the canon you're playing them from
Canon Point: The episode, chapter, book, etc. that your character is coming from
Age: Characters must be at least 16 y/o mentally and physically. 
Link to History: For canon characters, this can be a wiki link. For OCs, this can be a separate journal entry or wherever you have their history. or just give me the cliff notes because, really, it's less for me and more for other people to get an idea of the character

CRAU: are they coming from somewhere else? if this isn't applicable, you may omit this section!
AU Clarification: Explain to us a little bit about how they're different due to their experiences in the previous game/setting they were in

Personality: Tell us about your character's personality! Just a basic overview is fine! this can also be told through the art of interpretive memes or vines

Game Plan: How will your character adjust to being Amani and the knowledge that they are dead? How will they forge bonds with others and play nice? This is basically a summary of what your hopes for your time in the game are!
Interested in: here's a place to list the tropes, kinks, etc. specifically that you'd like to play out! you can also mention things you'd rather avoid, if you'd like

Anything else?: Anything extra you'd like to link or, as we all know, the good ol meme section.

MOD NOTES
Just a few things from Pudding to point out for the upcoming month!

★ A reminder that players can add their own tags to the network and log communities! So, have at it! Tag all the things!

★ If you're interested in helping out with moderator duties, please let me know either via DM on Discord, hitting up the mod contact, etc.! Some people have already assisted (thanks mochi for the check-in sheet!) but obviously I'm still running a bit behind in some ways like, uh. The calendar! And this post! Oops.

★ A reminder that the flora & fauna submission mechanic has been updated! While originally new creatures / plants needed to have a sexy stamp for approval, fuck that. Just link your character claim (or check-in) comment if you want to start adding to it. Thank you for the native wyverns and chocobos, now give me more cool creatures.

★ The calendar for June is up and ready! It now includes:

no escaping the celebration

please let me know via DM on Discord

★ We have two slots open for new players! We're currently at 38/40 players according to who has responded to the taken and/or drop page. Please, make sure you're using the taken page when you claim so that way I can keep an accurate tally since this is a capped gamebox.

PEACEKEEPER PROFILE

Personality: Headstrong, devoted, and tenacious, Lucina is the kind of person who must keep her eyes forward and body moving to keep the shadows of terrible past and purpose at bay. She is fiercely loyal to those she cares for - her father and immediate family/friends especially - and can become quite blinded by her devotion for their sakes.

As nobility, she's been raised to be polite and respectful, though her impatience can give rise to a temper and lower tolerance for things she deems not worth spending time on. Even her friends are not excused from this: She has a longer fuse for them, but there's still a limit to her tolerance for nonsense.

Despite that, she's got some very peculiar, abstract taste. It is famously tacky and she knows this to some degree, given the way many react to her fashion/art choices, but it still brings her joy when she lets herself indulge. Her willingness to go all-in on even bad design mirrors how all-in she is with her relationship and her training: She is famous for breaking training equipment on the regular.

Like mentioned before, should she slow down for too long, she finds dark things catching up to her. It's not a state of mind she likes to be in, but she is prone to brooding and regretting the mistakes of her past she doesn't have the chance to go back and fix. At least with her main goal achieved, she can breathe easier, forgive her younger self a bit more...but that'll take time.

In matters of the heart, she is as blunt as she is bashful, often not aware of mutual feelings unless explicitly stated - even in herself! She's a girl who has spent a long, long time laser-focused on war and stopping an apocalypse, so this aspect of relationships is still quite new.

Game Plan: It'll be a rocky start, given her personality, but once she can come to terms that there's no going back, that her future is here, she'll want to try to embrace it properly. Something something embrace deez nuts joke. Learning about other worlds, other traditions, other fashions... And, of course, lots and lots of combat. For fun, obviously.
Beyond that, I'm kind of taking things by ear; we'll see what awaits. c:

Interested in: Love all the cheesy first-romance tropes, will always be down to do some physical comedy gags (let this girl suplex and/or princess carry you) and the nonsense surrounding that. As for the spicier side, I have a m/f preference and am fairly vanilla beyond some bloodplay. Dubcon only after some more established, trusted CR - no noncon please.
Teach this girl to have fun. c':

Anything else?: hello
