YEAR 2: CHARACTER INTRODUCTIONS & PLOTTING

CHARACTER INTRODUCTIONS & PLOTTING

Hello everyone, and welcome (back) to Gooseberry! We still have a couple weeks until the actual game opens, but we anticipate a lot of new characters joining us.

RULES

So the OOC comm isn't flooded with dozens of new introduction posts, please introduce your new characters here!

Remember to put your character's name in the subject line!

You can say as much or as little as you like. Consider hitting the basics like, house, classes, clubs and year, then describe their personality and interests briefly. Mention what kinds of storylines you want (friends, enemies, etc.) and get to plotting!

Then go around and reply to other peoples' introductions, establishing lines and relationships.

If you have some plot you'd like to talk to people about that involves a returning character, comment here explaining what you're planning!

Be courteous and limit yourself to only one medium/small gif or image! We don't have cuts here, so be kind to your friends who might be on mobile.

» NEW CHARACTER INTRODUCTIONS: Introduce your new characters to the game, plot with other new characters, etc!

» OTHER PLOTTING: If you have plotting you'd like to do with a returning character, post it here!

» OOC - Questions, comments & concerns!

Hello it is Manx and I have the other monster twin Holloway. Her profile is here!

Concept: Little Miss Sunshine loves unicorns, feeds starving children steady diet of flies.
Classes: (core) Charms, Herbology, Outdoor Education, Potions, Transfiguration; (electives) Defense Against the Dark Arts, Magizoology. (advanced) Muggle Technology Studies.
Clubs: Cheer, Crafting, Equestrian, Gardening, Duelling & Fencing, Outdoor Exploration.

London's twin sister, but they are NOT born on the same day, so stop wishing her happy birthday on London's birthday!! Also Yancey is her yamhead older half-brother.

Paris prefers to go by Pear. (And pretty much always refers to London as Beans.) However!! She also loves to sprinkle her speech with garbage French as an homage to her name!! She thinks it makes her sound très sophisticated!!

Pear's an Ebonhide Sophomore and a former Wampus.

Aggressively Nice. Very Pink. LOVES UNICORNS!!

She's a Spriggan Scout, which is just a wizarding flair Girl Scout, but omg trust me, you're all VERY AWARE of this.

She's been entrusted with a prefect badge. I am super excited for "Ravi & Sun-mi... but they're assholes!!"

Other than Spriggan Scouts, her main passion at school is her carnivorous plants and her pet tarantula, Charlotte. Everyone is VERY welcome to attend feeding time.

She also does roller derby but there's like.. not a lot of great places to go skating here, so she will have to deal with her pent-up aggression in other ways.

Ha ha ha, just kidding. She's So Nice!! There's no aggression at all!!

PLOT STUFF

Obviously, the usual stuff! Friends, enemies, etc. GIRL GANG. Prefect buddies. Ilvermorny buddies. etc etc etc.

She considers Gabi her bitter arch-rival, because Gabi is Bluebell's favorite. Sara, I am sorry about this.

Pear desperately wants to be Bluebell's favorite, but first she needs to actually be able to get near Bluebell. Jenny and I had the idea for a silly running joke about the monster kids trying to help Pear win over Bluebell with increasingly ridiculous schemes. Soooo, any other monster children that can't get near Bluebell want to help?

oh my god cor isn't even in magizoology and she's now hellbent on getting pair palled up with bluebell. also she loves pear to death. :( and i never responded to your email but gory talbott is the best fucking derby name.

i love her! my others don't have sooo much to do with pear, though. maybe she and pear can gut some fish together someday. she and kurt will be NEW PREFECTS together! and casey is casey.

fun fact: it's been over a decade since i was in guiding and i can still recite the promise by heart

thank you cor!! this is a super important mission!! pear has obviously seen cor's tv show and i think she was a leetle bit star struck last year, but she's over that by now. but it was probably annoying for awhile there!!

um, yes, when you were working on paige all i could think is that essie is probably like HUH at the fish guts (but... she will utterly adore paige anyway, i am not really memeing, but she will be SUPER EXCITED to meet her once school starts!!!) while pear is like OH NEAT. and i just realized i am not gonna be 3/3 on kids who like to oogle casey, whoops.

dang kas. i was only a scout for a couple years in elementary school so i canNOT, though I dig Canada's spin on it.

lol i realized i called her "pair" on that last comment. i don't even have an excuse. homophones.

UMMM UNACCEPTABLE, PLEASE CHANGE THAT ASAP, CASEY NEEDS TO BE WORSHIPPED AT AL TIMES.

...lmao i just found a recipe for Kitty Litter Cake on the girl guide website.

YUP THOSE ARE MY PEEPS

We're planning an event inspired by squonk care that revolves around Bluebell that you're going to enjoy. :)))

SO. Archie is in her year and house!!! And he's the perpetual shadow of her co-prefect!!! And he's troublesome!!! He's easy to rope into schemes and will assist in helping her win over Bluebell. How does Pear feel about experimental potions to trick unicorns??? Because he has an 💡Idea💡.

Kenzie and Reid are senior prefects so she'll probably have to talk to them eventually! Kenzie is Azurcrest's cool mom who doesn't want to be anyone's mom, and who's main qualifier for prefect intervention is "Is anyone crying? If not, it's probably okay." Reid's a little more... concerned. Just across the board worried. Mildly distressed about everything.

Spencer will be friendly! He's very social! He can probably tell the twins apart just because... memory stuff.

Aaaaaand she won't need to worry about Calvin much!

EEEK. I am already SUPER EXCITED!!!

Pear thinks that sounds like a très valid form of scientific exploration, Archie!! (Which, btw, this may have been answered elsewhere but were any of the freshmen drugged during the event last year?) BUT ANYWAY!! These all sound like good things and I am v excited for all these naughty Ebonkiddos.

Reid, you are a role model to small children now. You should definitely be distressed. Essie will probably be more trouble for Kenzie than Pear is, but Essie is trying to clean up her act, she swears!!!

Aaaaaaand Pear thinks that she's très obviously different from Beans, but she will appreciate that Spencer can tell. ...Unless they are trying to do a switcheroo for some reason and in that case, she will not!!

I looked at the same gif hunt as you and I saw that exact gif and thought "I hope she picks this one for Paris, but I'm not gonna tell her what to do with her life."

-3- ALRIGHT, similar to with London, just sort of distance-y things. Phi is a fellow ebonhide prefect and in gardening, but does not do well with all these crazy girls and will just try to Not Talk To Her, despite the fact that she has cool plants and a cute spider :( Ramon has Crafting with her and whatever, flirt, blah blah. Jaime has more things with her (Dueling and Equestrian), and will appreciate her desire to be bros with Bluebell, but... yeah. And Hazel has OE with her and will roll her eyes at the Bluebell thing probs. This is all very weak, but oh mannnn soph girls! ♥

GIRL GANG GIRL GANG

Okay so yes Tuesday LOVES. HER. She wants to learn how to roller derby. She'd totally try to find a way to skate. She WILL feed the tarantula if Paris is busy. Please they should be friends. Okay thanks.

JADE WOULD ALSO LOVE HER and really her affinity to all these hellkids is concerning me. However, to keep this one in line, she would totally speak her most sophisticated French sentences. They're probably mostly about lunch or death. She thinks Paris and her morbid obsessions are Great.

Ferdie will be a supportive head boy. Please just keep the awful kids in line. Please.

Addy will think she's cute probably. God help us.

Again, THESE HOLLOWAYS. ♥

Casper is a fellow Ebonhide and has Dueling with Pear and, while he probably likes her better than London because she isn't the photographer of the pair, he probably doesn't think much of her either. He'd like her to please stay out of his way. The fact that she's the new Ebonhide prefect will likely be exasperating to him and I hope she makes him even more exasperated, but he's available to help her learn the ropes.

Lachlan is in Outdoor Exploration with Pear AND is a fellow Scout! Though, not a Spriggan Scout, obviously. He probably finds her the more endearing twin just because of that (sorry London) and would love to talk to her about that dorky Scout stuff. :O HOW MANY BADGES DO YOU HAVE?

Cole...same deal as with London, really! He's fine with Aggressively Nice and probably likes her just fine. He went to Ilvermorny with her but probably didn't have much interaction with her since he was even more of a loner back in the day and his older brother (now graduated) was in Wampus. He'll see her for Craft Club!

Heathcliff likes aggressively nice and, if he had any idea that roller derby was her thing, he'd be happy to roughhouse with her. SUCH A SHAME. He's all kinds of curious about her carnivorous plants.

GIRLGANGGIRLGANG.

Manx I have spent the last week thinking about the increasingly ridiculous schemes they will try to get Pear to win Bluebell's heart. I am obsessed.

We have already talked Nisha and Yancey lmao, but Nia is very very excited for this little monster who likes carnivorous plants and weird animals. Very relatable. She wants to mold her into the perfect prefect. Expect head girl attention.

Lucas is less afraid of Pear than he should be.

Dinah thinks those carnivorous plants are the most badass thing in the world and wants to watch her feed them EVERY TIME. Pear definitely has a Poison Ivy ripoff counterpart in the DINAH DANGER comic book series. Also they laugh in the back of cars together in gifs, they are clearly BEST FRIENDS.

Austin is a year ahead of her and will raise an eyebrow every time she uses a random French word. It might be because he's jealous he didn't think to use another language's vocabulary to make himself seem more sophisticated.

Riley has adopted London as the Future of Azurcrest, so she might look at Pear and be like "don't you want to do less gross things like play with bugs and plants and, like, curl your hair?? Idgi."

Jeffy constantly gets the twins mixed up. They could have different hair colors and Jeffy would still get them mixed up. Jeffy has twin blindness.

And Rosy probably doesn't think new baby prefects actually have that much power and might be kind of condescending, sorry she's the worst.

Ha ha, not only does Dom remember HER from Wampus too, he definitely cringes at the bad French XD Sorry Paris!

She's also Marie-Anne's roommate so she probably drives her nuts as well. 8)

Aaaand, she is the other baby Ebonhide prefect, so Jo will be seeing a lot of her!

Ha ha, we need someone to pick her up for game canon purposes!

yaaaaassss connections! I am liking this.

idk how i initially missed you literally bolding my character's name at me, but in case it's unclear to anyone, i can die happy now.

OMG I JUST STARTED WATCHING THIS SHOW. I love her face. And she's amazing. AHHH.

Ahem. Carolina is in her year but...that's about where it ends? Aggressively nice can kind of conflict with...softly nice. But Carolina will be her usual nice self, I just don't think they'll cross paths a lot (let's make them cross paths)

Vee is SO EXCITED to have more squad members. She loves Pear's enthusiasm and spunk. SHE WILL DOTE ON HER SO MUCH.

Ana is just like O_O As is Milo. (He feels like her exaggerated expressions means it's a good thing he can't hear??? lol)
