+ 1 lone wolf

[borntohurt]

Hello folks. My name is Diya, and I have returned after time away because I miss you lot. This time, I'm bringing with me Charles Smith, from Red Dead Redemption II.


The son of a freed man and a Native woman in the late 1800s, civilized society didn't have much of a use or want for Charles. So he fell into banditry and became an outlaw, joining up with the first gang to treat him decent and fair. The bar for making friends is so ridiculously low it's not even funny.

He's pretty quiet and reserved, assuming through experience that most people aren't going to like him much or treat him fair owing to his parentage, but he's honest, hard-working, and loyal as Hell to those who earn it. Good news is he's used to moving from place to place pretty often, so winding up someplace new isn't going to be a terrible shock. What might be more of a setback is the city itself and the level of tech, given that he arrived straight out of the turn of the century.

This is also a slightly AU version of the character, because someone has them a big, furry secret on a monthly basis. But he's not exactly broadcasting that at the moment. I imagine some might take an interest over time, however. To no one's shock at all, he's over in the Coliseum currently, with the sin of Wrath.

Feel free to add me on plurk at isadiya, and hit me up if you want to Do Things. I'm looking forward to playing with you all again!

Hi Diya!

I'm Beth and I play Steve Rogers from the MCU and Felicity Smoak from Arrow. Welcome Back. I look forward to playing with Charles!

[borntohurt]

Thanks! I look forward to getting him out there to meet folks.

Hi, Diya! I've only just apped in myself with Jill Valentine from Resident Evil -- really hype to see the video game presence here! Anyway, Jill's a Wrath buddy so there's a chance they'll run into one another (she loves the shooting range, naturally and will be hanging out at the gym to no one's surprise at all).

You can catch me on plurk at haddonfield and sunset flip#7359 on Discord! Welcome back! c:

[borntohurt]

He'll need to find a replacement for his shotgun. Otherwise it's just gonna be him practicing with his tomahawk for a while. But I can see them striking up a rapport, easy.

[torsion]

Honestly, she feels that remorse intimately. Fortunately, though, her desired item from the welcome package was a handgun.

But they can throw knives and tomahawks! She'd actually really enjoy that...

[borntohurt]

No chance of running out of bullets, at least.

[ofwovenstone]

FLAILS LOUDLY.

Hey, they're going to be Wrath friends/neighbours. (And also culture shock buddies. SO MUCH TECH AND ADVANCEMENT.)

[borntohurt]

Are you sure we can't just go live in the woods? Seems simpler.

[ofwovenstone]

It would make life easier. (I mean, give Cassie enough seeds and time and she could MAKE a forest with her Chaotic Good Poison Ivy/super gardener powers.)

But they can hang out and have archery competitions and be generally awesome together.

[borntohurt]

My hype is real

[ofwovenstone]

SAME. Aaaah this is going to be so much fun!

[boo_berry]

I'll be adding you (TheHourMorgana) once this posts so hi! I'm Morgan and play a CRAU Thea Queen from Arrow (she spent a year in a sex or die game pre city) and she's in Wrath. I also have Tulip O'Hare from AMC Preacher circa end of S2 when she was shot by Featherstone/pre Angelville, she's Pride. Both of them are up for plotting as well.

[borntohurt]

Excellent! I have added you.

What are they up to in-game, at the moment?

[boo_berry]

Thea just arrived and is out for blood at Eros after a year on "screw or die" island along with getting rid of the collar (if no sex is had people get choked). Tulip is mostly working and hanging out with people and her castmate (Cassidy).

[borntohurt]

Well, Charles will be skulking around town for a while, trying to get a lay of the land and figure out how he got here. Also what is up with all this tech.

Based on what he'll learn in the course of that, he'll make a move towards deciding how to best spend his time here.

[boo_berry]

Thea is doing the same so they need to meet plus she has her archery gear too.

[borntohurt]

Hello, Diya! I'm Lily and also a returning player from a while back and play John Wick from the movies of the same name.

I am sadly canon blind to RDR, but I love learning about new canons through cross-canon CR and it seems Charles and John may have a couple things in common. So I look forward to threading with you.

Also adding you on plurk shortly (I'm lilbeejack).

[borntohurt]

Yes, I remember you! Glad you have you back around.

I'll be VERY keen to have these two meet. What's John get up to, these days?

[withafnpencil]

I'm glad and thank you! I'm happy to reconnect again.

Keeping his head down but not really lol. He ended up "dealing" with a bunch of guys on his second night who severely underestimated him. Besides that, taking some time to heal given he arrived with his post Chapter Two injuries.

You know, playing the retired guy. For now.

[borntohurt]

Uh huh. Getting out of the business.

He knows how well that tends to go.

[withafnpencil]

Ahem.

This is good bonding stuff for them.

[borntohurt]

Want to sit around manfully not talking about it?

[withafnpencil]

Absolutely. May have to make it a weekly thing.

[intuitive_aptitude]

Hi Diya!

Nice to meet you and Charles! I'm canon blind, but excited to play together regardless! I have two muses here. One is Matt Murdock from Daredevil, who I think would get along with Charles great. My other one is Sylar from Heroes, who is ... complicated and I never really predict how any of his interactions go. Lolz.

Should be a lot of fun!

[borntohurt]

Oh definitely. Let me know if there's any place I should toss him towards your fellows!

[bethebetterpath]

Hi Charles from Charles! :D I'm Laura. I have this guy, just a bit mutant-y. Welcome!

[borntohurt]

Thanks so much!

This will not be at all confusing in any way or lead to any misunderstandings, I am sure.

[diana_abel]

SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMM!

[borntohurt]

So what Beatles song are we teaching this one?

[diana_abel]

Let's go with Hey Jude. It's good for all occasions.

[borntohurt]

Sounds good on a harmonica, too. I'm down.

[diana_abel]

So it is written. So let it be done.

[mustact]

This is a funny coincidence because I've talked briefly with someone else about how Charles Smith and Connor might get along and here you are apping him into my game.

Hi! This is Toss. We already have each other on Plurk even though we don't necessarily talk that much and we've shared some games so I hope you know who I am lmaooo. Welcome to the game!

[borntohurt]

Of course I know you are, lol.

Also, heck yes.

[mustact]

HEY you never know.

Anyway I'M VERY EXCITED.
