☓ CHARACTER
Professor Randolph Lyall
Parasol Protectorate
☓ PLAYER
Gail, 36



☓ OOC STUFF
Backtagging: Joining a thread that's weeks old and hasn't been tagged on in ages, not so much; keeping playing in a thread that's been going for weeks, fine! ^^
Threadhopping: Organization is good, but if it makes sense, go for it.
Fourthwalling: Depends on the offense in question, but as long as it doesn't freak my boy out too much, s'fine by me. Most likely he'll just think you're crazy.
Offensive subjects: I'm cool with most things. I'm more about how offensive subjects are handled than the subjects themselves.

☓ IC STUFF
Hugging this character: Go for it.
Kissing this character: He's very polite and rather old-fashioned, so he's likely to think that scandalous unless it's in private and there's some kind of commitment going on....
Flirting with this character: He might flirt back in a very understated sort of way, but he won't embarrass your character or anything.
Fighting with this character: Sure thing! Could be fun.
Killing this character: Only if he's allowed to come back physically, and it's part of a plot! Please discuss with me first.
Sex: See the bit about kissing. Very proper, unless under duress, and he requires commitment. If he actually decides he wants to sleep with someone, the mun will fade to black, as I do not rp sex scenes :)
Using telepathy or mind-reading abilities on this character: He has no defense against it, so sure thing.
Relationships: He wants to know people!
Anything that shouldn’t be mentioned near this character?: Not really, I can roll with most things ICly.
Anything else?: He's used to being highly ranked and mostly respected. He may not take it well if he's disrespected. But otherwise, he's just a little, clever wolf ^^

☓ Outer Divide Specific
Powers/Abilities: Lyall has recently gained Anubis form, which gives him the ability to turn others into werewolves if they have the quality that allows for the transformation. He will not be doing this without a lot of plotting ahead of time, and likely not without a lot of thought ahead of time, too, but he will be entirely open to doing so (especially as ship people have little risk, and will likely come back even if they die! :D ).

I will leave whether any specific individual has the right quality up to the player.

... I like this CR X3 He'll be very confused when apologies actually work.

Oh yeah, I figured no cages X3 Lyall wouldn't put her in one, anyway, unless she were too small to keep track of. Which she's not :B

Boooooks. Y'know, whenever he cottons on to her being smart, he'd totally TEACH her how to read. Cuz everyone ought to know that. And also, considering Lyall will have his laptop open a lot when he's around her, feel free to have her play with the keys or try to read things there, too.

[seabeast]

It'll be a sad day when she won't fit in the bathroom sink anymore. :( MUST FIND ANOTHER WAY TO PASSIVELY AGGRESS.....

Ferrets usually have a habit of chewing squishy things, like sponges or pillows, but you lucked out with this one, Lyall. :DD No need to ferret-proof anything!

YES PLEASE AND THANK YOU!! Basic literacy shouldn't take all that long, considering she's a young ferret and she's still learning things on her own, but she'll never have mastery unless this game ends up stretching out to 4+ years, lmfao.

IMAGINE EVERYONE'S SURPRISE WHEN... a ferret can (accidentally) post something to the network. sobbing

OH AND ALSO... If he wants to try and give her a name, or if he'd like to poll the network for a name, I (and she) absolutely do not mind! She'll answer to anything until she remembers her real name, and then... well, that'll be confusing, but she'll deal with it!

[professorwolf]

I'm sure she can come up with something >: 3 though by the time she's growing to no longer fit in the sink, there may be a different relationship, anyway XD Less "pet" and more, uh, roommate who happens to have fur?

Heee! Yeah, his main subject might be biology, but dammit, reading is important XD Lessons will be had. He'll get her some Doctor Seuss cuz that shit is classic.

Naming will obviously happen. Do YOU have any preferences? He'll probably wind up with something from Lord of the Rings, science, or (irony) Redwall or something if left to himself.

[seabeast]

Roomie with fur... lord lord i feel like i need to draw up some contingency plans for the inevitable HIDE THE GIANT FERRET problem coming straight at me. I'LL FIGURE IT OUT AS WE GO ALONG. But she'll make a good roommate as long as her murderous tendencies don't come back before her sense of responsibility UuU

she'll get such a kick out of oh the places you'll go OuO!!!

Hmm... I don't mind leaving it up to the fates! Or even the students of his bio classes, heh, as long as she isn't named Featherduster or something. (... that'd be cute, actually...) If you just want suggestions, Rosie or Elenor from LOTR or Stella from "mustelia" could be good. IRONY: SHE GETS NAMED... ROMSCA...... HA...HAHA...... sobbing

[professorwolf]

:: finishes round of tags with all OTHER characters, finally cycles back to Lyall journal ::

Oversized sweaters, floppy hats, and big coats. Those are Lyall's suggestions. Pretend she's a light-phobic ten year old and bundle her up so no one can see the fur and the muzzle, and hope the tail doesn't get a life of its own :D

She won't be named Roscha XD I'm not that mean. More likely he'd pick a badger name, cuz she's not evil like the ferrets :B But yeah, that was more of a joke than anything else! XD He might lean towards Stella, actually, cuz he's really even more of a biologist than he is a fantasy geek....

Also, do you have a plurk? I'd totally add you there if so!

[seabeast]

i know that feeling so well sob

that'll work for the first growth spurt, certainly, but she's going to top off at around 5'6-ish.... i'm sensing a lot of coats and maxi-dresses in her future, which is great because her sense of fashion is sort of terrible and mix and match anyway

... god, what if cregga rose-eyes... HAHAHA, too bad romsca isn't albino. stella's good if you'd like to stick with that! i'll go ahead and change it on her profile once i remember that it's official UuU

i do, although i'm warning you now... my plurk is 99% screaming about kingdom hearts. i'm over at mawiles :D

[professorwolf]

Heee. Maybe by the time she gets that big there won't be so much hiding X3 hiding is the name of the game for Season One, but I think that's likely to change come season Two? (Also, she is the same height as Lyall XD That's awesome)

By the time she's big enough to wear decent clothes, Lyall will have enough of himself back to be a better dresser, and he will cringe at her fashion sense. CRINGE I TELL YOU.

Also, I friended you. cacopheny :) And I don't know a ton about KH, but I did play in a KH based game once?

[seabeast]

that's true!! I'm really excited to see the kinds of things the mod has planned for that UuU this game is so exciting, i get so caught up in what's happening... ah :D

AW THAT'S CUTE she'll just lounge around in maxis and awful drawstring slacks, often at the same time, with any loud and shiny color in between. SHE'LL GO OUT IN PUBLIC LIKE THAT oh hey this is how she passive aggresses in season two excellent

and friended back! :D let me guess, paixao? i try to keep things neat and tagged, do not worry UuU

[professorwolf]

I am toooooo. I'm still trying to decide on my second character. Cuz obviously throwing LYall at EVERYTHING isn't gonna work :| I've got a teenage homeless girl who's also a tiefling thief, from an older PC video game... and an elf mage reborn as a cop, genderswitched. And a prettyboy land-healing mage from the Valdemar books is poking at my brain a little, too. AND I CAN'T DECIDE ;.;

Hahaha, oh Romsca, you're so mean <3 Lyall really WILL cringe at her going out in public clashing. I love it.

Actually, it was Star Kingdom? Very slice of life, I only joined for pretty much the entire Sailor Moon cast being there (I also play Sailor Uranus as one of my various fandom characters), but I didn't last long cuz I need plot =/

[seabeast]

lawd lawd i'm considering doing the exact same thing because LOL i want to interact with other characters now, dammit. don't worry about throwing off game ratios either, the character i'm apping is yet another teenage boy! hope you don't mind a rambunctious jocky type joining the crew lyall UuU

she'll wear loud earrings and have tattoos too it'll be great. on missions she'll tone it down tho uou no need to attract attention

:o that must have been a while ago, i've never heard of it before... yeah, i can handle plotless stuff, but these kinds of games make me really excited. ouo

[professorwolf]

haaaaa XD nope, I don't! Lyall might, but he'll cope ;) at least you've made your decision! I'm still waffling. Blarg. Part of me REALLY wants to play out the cop, for the gender issues and the family issues she'll have and for the inside interest in the police stuff, but I know her reactions will be in line with a lot of people already here and reacting. And the teenage tiefling would be fun, but I already have her in another game and I'm not sure I could get in her head in two games? And the mage I've never played before, so :B

/ramble

Also, I had the thought to do an open action log thing for Friday, with Lyall taking Romsca to school? ^^ Kind of an... end of the week surprise for his classes. You could get some new kid CR that way, maybe even an after-school former-student CR if it works out.

[seabeast]

go with whichever character you think you could carry for a season! i know i can carry romsca, and i've played my other character for years solid. i want all of these characters to be with us for the long haul :DD

Yeah! Oooh, is it all right if the post for that leads in with Romsca messing with Lyall's computer in the classroom? Like, if he were logged into the network already, she could accidentally trigger video and stare into the camera, sniffing at the screen. Cue Lyall walking in and shooing her away... would that be all right?

[professorwolf]

Well, the mage I'm pretty sure I could despite not having played him... he's just yet another pretty gay boy in a game full of pretty gay boys XD Tiefling I'm iffy on, since she's a kind of quirky muse. So I guess that leaves me with the cop ^^' At least she also has a family ans stuff, which can be a change to play out from my chronically single surrogate-dad werewolf...

Oh man, I wish I could do that, but Lyall's laptop has no video :( If you like, though, we could plan an over-the-weekend joint post where he GETS a webcam and she does that? ^^ That'll give you more room to do your own posts, going forward, and get him more in line with the times.

[seabeast]

i think we're pretty low on coptypes in the game, too. :D she's my favorite choice!

aww... that's cool! yeah, i don't want to bug you for posts, since you've got a zillion different plots going on already, but if you're open to the idea, i'd be down! it wouldn't have to be right away, either - we can always stretch it out until lyall icly finds a need to get one.

[professorwolf]

well, we have two for sure X3 and I think a third is in the works. so that'd give us four, total. ah well. at least she'll have some pre-game CR!

I'm open to the idea :) and we'll figure out timing. It'd be easy enough for one of his students to tell him to get with the times or something XD and he does need a headset anyway.... Trying to decide whether to have Lyall go out to the fortified farm they found last weekend, on this weekend, or whether he'll be too distracted by the werewolf issue... if he goes maybe he can take her XD But Romsca will definitely notice that the idea of werewolves is disturbing to him :B
