Intro And Plotting
INTRO POST
!Welcome to Alexandria...
Thanks for coming to this little hole in the wall sandbox! Everything you might need to know is here but we'll add a comment below if any other questions come up!
This is a very make your own story sandbox. While there might be some gamewide plots eventually, they'll happen in such a way that the most hyper responsible character isn't gifted with plausible deniability. Think of it this way. Think what if Batman had to deal with the Joker while the Justice League was dealing with an invasion of aliens before they reached Earth. Batman won't have to worry about those aliens in this case because Wonder Woman and Superman got this and he's got his own troubles right now.
It's okay if your character is doing their own thing, because the Library has people who have got this. But that doesn't mean they won't turn down the help when those situations arise, especially if those situations are threats from your home universe.
To help out, we're including a helpful plotting form below. If you haven't yet, please join here under the cast list so people will have access to your info card. Happy playing and plotting!

Player Questions:
Anything you are wanting to play in particular?: I love stupid shit, trauma, fight scenes, stupid shit, Working For The Greater Good (THE GREATER GOOD), awkward people making awkward friends, random as hell character friendships, stupid shit... Honestly, I just want try RPing again in a small environment without worrying about people's judgement, which kind of stopped me RPing in games long ago...
How can fellow players help or get involved?: Let's just hang out and make stupidity happen!
Character Name: Connor (AU version)
Character Questions:
Tell us about your character?: RIGHT SO Connor's from an urban supernatural AU where he was raised to be an ELITE VAMPIRE HUNTER, but one day he was always going to be killed and given the blood of Dracula to be an ELITE VAMPIRE VAMPIRE HUNTER. That happened, and he got paired up with a certain werewolf who hated vampires.
Buddy cop vampire stuff along the line of the DBH game happened, but in the equivalent of the 'Hank kills a fake Connor' scene, he gets it wrong and stakes the real Connor.
(Time skip while Hank mourns, takes Connor's ashes half way across the world, which get stolen then used in some Fullmetal Alchemist-style equivalent exchange to resurrect him)
So Connor's a special snowflake vampire whose main powers, apart from the usual speed/strength combo, are being able to go out in sunlight (he does not sparkle) and read people's minds by drinking their blood. Also a telepathic soulbondy relationship with Hank because werewolf magic. Apart from sunlight he's weak to most of the fun things vampires are - silver, staking, decapitation, fire. He has to be invited into private residences. He can see himself in modern mirrors, but not silver ones. (Garlic is an urban myth, guys, gawd)
Do you need help having your character arrive?: Naaah, starting a new life with new places and people who have no idea who/what he is and ways he can use his powers for good
with Hank hereis more than enough to get him on board.What has your character been up to on screen?:... N/A :D
What has your character been up to off-screen?: AU-wise, I'm assuming he successfully killed off his old vampire-hunting masters, got rid of the other Big Bad ancient vampires and the world is having a True-Blood-style 'coming out of the coffin', so that's pretty much what he's been up to.
What plans or ambitions does your character have?: Nothing really specific. I'd like him to have a concrete Mission at some point that he can focus attention on and be bloodhoundy about.
Does your character need help with their plans (or need them thwarted after a point)?: Always, to both of these things, but let's see how it goes actually finding/making plans first :D
