James Porter 18 | Male | 5'7" | 149 lbs Empire of Britannia | Dynamicism | Chemical Assassin
Their Story Kidnapped at the age of 7, James was trained in her Majesty's new Military Intelligence project codenamed: "Good Little Deeds". There he was taught to speak multiple languages, handle firearms, and become one of the brightest minds among Britannia's citizens. His original purpose was to infiltrate into foreign nations and gather intelligence and conduct sabotage missions. However, he had a particular talent for brewing poisonous gaseous solutions. This talent was deadly when paired with his use of Dynamicist formulations.
His missions from the day of his recruitment to his current assignment have been his life. He has no childhood, no parents that he can remember (or cares to remember), and no real friends. However, he still has many of his years ahead of him and life can change in a hearbeat, his story has only yet begun. Organization: Institute of Good Little Deeds Current Mission: I'll fill this out in a PM. Secret: I'll fill this out in a PM.
I kept the story sort of short and vague because I realized that a kidnapped child doesn't have that many stories to tell plus any notable events would probably be best discussed with other players before being added into the story.
You know... Since they're from an Otome game... I can picture that if I put myself in the shoes of a fangirl. I've only got one word to say to it all... Hawt.
Hmm... On that end however, since this is somewhat an alternate reality, why not have it be someone like Queen Victoria? Just a thought, since events here have transpired so different from our world that perhaps even who's in power may have changed.
Just to mention to my collab partners, I'm unable to use discord during the weekdays, so I'll just say here that I've replied already to parts of the collab. Sorry for the communications inconvenience.
As far as my vision of how the UK looks here... it's just anime steampunk Victorian Britain. Less strict gender roles, women's clothes that are cuter and less stuffy that it was historically, for sure. Y'know, think Princess Principal, like ERode mentioned. The UK's probably flexing on the Continent as usual, but probably more low-key meddling than what we saw historically since the Orient and the New World are big players now too.
Also, the Royal navy, can't forget that. Big. Powerful. Superdreadnoughts. In the sea and in the air. See my signature.
I dunno about the empire and colony situation though, since there isn't the new world to grab land from, or even Australia.
Ah, it's already giving me the whole Princess Principal vibes of London. So yeah, I can see what you mean I'm pretty sure I want this kind of UK too cause it's very close to what I was envisioning.
I think in terms of the colony situation, I'm thinking perhaps they had initial gains, and then lost them after the Futile War. However, this does give incentive to spy on the bigger players such as the New World and Orient.
I'm thinking on the Orient situation, perhaps we could draw inspiration from the opium wars and perhaps trying to subvert control through that through more low-key means.
As a little bit of a favor, if any of you can edit maps to show which players have what, I'd be grateful because I can't edit the photos on my current machine. It just can't handle it.
How does a country that's very much like Britain who's imperial dreams have yet to be tempered sound? A sort of giant looming in the distance yet tied down by the results of the Futile War. Recognizing that their ambitions can yet be achieved through other means, their Military Intelligence sets up their own spy program named: "The Institution of Small Good Deeds" posing as a orphanage that regularly kidnaps children of special talents and trains them from a young age. My man just happens to be one of them.
