[OOC] Animorphs: The Reckoning

[Holly]

And thus we begin! Character sheets are under the character tab, you don't have to follow them directly but please use them as a guideline! If you have any questions regarding lore, sequence of events, character work, or otherwise, do not hesitate to post it here or PM me! I'll do my best to answer ASAP! c:

I will most likely get a chance to add my own character and hopefully the first IC late (late) tonight or mid-day tomorrow. I don't expect everyone to do any number of posts per day, but I expect that you'll be present and engaged for as much of this as you can be. I'm a very laid back person; if you have any, any issues at all, let me know. You don't have to go in depth or make up an excuse, just tell me and I'll accommodate.

I appreciate having you all on board! :D

still a wip but I'm super pumped to get this show on the road! (also I don't think tagging people in the first post works? I didn't get the notification lol)

Name (First Only Please!): Stephanie (goes by Steph)

Gender: Female

Human? Yes!

Personality: At a first glance, Steph is unnecessarily focused on small, overly specific details and unbearably girly. She is bubbly and outgoing, and her friendly, cheerful disposition is well-liked by her peers, even if they do make fun of her for her propensity of wearing high heels everywhere she goes. Though Steph can be very prissy and a bit shallow or superficial, she doesn't have a single mean bone in her body. She can talk about anything and everything for hours on end. Some tend to find this incessant chatter exceedingly irritating, which Steph is not always the most aware of. She is a kind and sweet person at heart, and she refuses to say anything bad about other people as a general principle.

If Steph is not always aware of how much she talks, she is aware of the feelings and thoughts of others. Steph is naturally people-smart and is good at picking up subtle hints that indicate shifts in emotions in others. She's a very good listener and always willing to offer comfort to other people. Empathetic, understanding, and cheerful, Steph is perpetually impeccably organized and ready for anything. She's a bit of a perfectionist with a stickler for keeping everything neat and organized. Steph has an infernal inability to keep her mouth shut on things that don't really matter, making her an incorrigible gossip.

Despite her rather silly tendencies, Steph is a natural-born diplomat and compromiser, capable of expertly mediating tense situations. Armed with a firm belief in common courtesy and a natural gift for "reading" people, she is able to get even the most stubborn of people to agree to things through the application of hot drinks and sugary treats and pure politeness. She has a breezy, brisk way of going about her business, and she is remarkably good at keeping track of and managing people, for all her sparkly ways.

Finally, although one wouldn't guess it from Steph's outward appearance and mannerisms, Steph possesses a sharp intelligence and an ability to analyze all sorts of problems and situations in the blink of an eye. She is most certainly not as ditzy as she comes off as, in terms of academics. Steph has always maintained high expectations for herself, and she refuses to be anything less than perfect in everything from her grades to her hair to her hot pink planner.

+Friendly, outgoing, intelligent (academics-wise), welcoming, optimistic, determined
-Talkative to the point of being annoying, impulsive, a bit shallow and superficial, silly, slightly ridiculous, really extra

Various Aesthetic Images B/c I Felt Like It

[Holly]

@ayzrules Love it! The boards were really cute and really helped me get a feel for your character! c:

As for the tagging... let's try again.

@Dusty @Aristocles @RumikoOhara @SupernovaBlitz @Typhon

[Dusty]

Present @SM64Dude, I'll be working on a sheet here today or soonish.

[Aristocles]

I'm working on a character named Adrian. Not sure if I will use a picture for him, though. He might use a tiger at first, but acquire and use a Hork-Bajir later. Which I know would be controversial in the books, as they are sentient.

[Holly]

@Aristocles You got it! You're right, it'll be a fun challenge reacting to that. Maybe your character can be kind of a rogue? :) That way you can post more slowly 'cause you could be off on your own more often, and you could do that morph without the group's mentality weighing you down. Excited to see what Adrian's like! :)

[Aristocles]

@SM64Dude

No, I'm not going to make him rogue. Definitely not like David. Or off on his own.

Tammy

Name: Tammy

Gender: Female

Human: Yes

Personality: Tammy is a true Tomboy in almost every way which she could be, she enjoys running, hunting, motocross, martial arts, weight lifting, archery, fishing, hiking, camping, free climbing, mechanic, and even has experience flying small aircraft. This is in part due to being the only child of a widower who tried to raise her correctly but had no idea how to raise a girl. These hobbies are the same as her father’s whom Tammy followed everywhere as a child and necessary in the Alaskan town of Killdeer Creek where she grew up till her dad won the bid to run the southern end of the supply chain of a series of winter camps in Canada and they moved here.

Her father’s work has made Tammy an independent girl used to taking care of herself and being home alone. Her love of her father and his trust in her also means that Tammy isn’t the type to throw wild parties or even a few friends in her and her dad’s apartment at the Airport so few people really know her that well.

Responsible, trustworthy and dedicated she is a good student her best classes Math and Science because they appeal to orderly nature that her logical nature finds comforting.

She is possibly the worst dressed girl in school preferring baggy sweatshirts, loose fitting jeans, and is never seen wearing makeup or perfumes avoiding the two as if they were caustic.

Physical Description:

Picture

Tammy stands 5 foot 10 inches and weighs around 140 pounds.
Her hair is a dark auburn and cut to barely fall on her shoulders
She has Brown Eyes and a light complexion and an athletic build

@SM64Dude When I was thinking up a character for this RP it struck me that the original animorphs all knew each other fairly well, Rachel and Jake were even related, so I was thinking for the sake of continuity our characters should all know each other, at least on a casual basis to explain why they were all at the same place whenever thesuperimportantandalitewhosenameIforget and Visser Three show up and they get the power to morph.

Anyway it might be a good idea to work out in the OOC the different relationships all the characters have with each other. Just my two cents.

[RumikoOhara]

I'm open to the idea@Dusty

[Lord Frostecs]

Hmm, I had an idea, since this is a sort of AU, I think something interesting would be having an alien. I mean, the original cast had ax, and we could have an alien who thinks he is a human, since he looks almost fully human! So, who do we think could be related to him, since I am planning on having him work as an apprentice bio-chemist.

[Holly]

@Dusty That's what I was thinking too! It makes things a whole lot easier, that's for sure. Sounds like a plan! We'll work those relationships out when we have all our sheets in.

@RumikoOhara Love her!! Very reminiscent of Cassie, and I like that she's sort of a "jack-of-all-trades", so to speak. Feel free to move your sheet to the "Characters" tab! :)

@SupernovaBlitz I had a big smile on my face reading that! I'm in love with that idea, it has a lot of potential (and honestly could lead to some cute moments c:)! As I told Dusty, we can decide relationships once we get everyone's sheet! Mine will be coming tonight.

@Aristocles Just a suggestion! Your character is up to you.

Sorry for my delay in posting, my birthday's tomorrow and I'm trying to get all my work done so I won't have to worry! Be back in a bit! :)

[Holly]

Ah, and @ayzrules, feel free to add your sheet to the "Characters" tab as well!

[RumikoOhara]

@SM64Dude

I never work on my Birthday and my family always treats me as the Princess that I am LOL

This year my Uncle began my lessons in helicopter piloting and I am so close I just need to solo and boom I might get to fly his?

[Holly]

I wish my family treated me like a princess..... shit...... and thats crazy!! Piloting seems complicated but rewarding!

[RumikoOhara]

@SM64Dude

I am already licensed to fly Single and Multi-engines because of a graduation gift from him but I am dying to fly his R44

[Holly]

0.0 That's awesome! Is flying as nice as they say it is?

[RumikoOhara]

@SM64Dude

Oh I love it, especially when my Uncle allows me to go aerobatic. When he does I imagine flying one of the Biplanes of WW1 chasing a Fokker

[Lord Frostecs]

@SupernovaBlitz I had a big smile on my face reading that! I'm in love with that idea, it has a lot of potential (and honestly could lead to some cute moments c:)! As I told Dusty, we can decide relationships once we get everyone's sheet! Mine will be coming tonight.

@SM64Dude

Ahh, glad you like my idea! I am happy my idea put a smile on your face! And I am looking forward to seeing your OC, I bet it will be good! And I hope my alien OC will turn out okay, since I haven't really played as an alien who thinks he is a human before, outside of my books.

[Holly]

Hey guys, sorry for the lack of my character sheet today! Night in the Woods really got me, haha. Hoping to have it up tomorrow!
