Name:It's Pedro! I do not have interesting nicknames:-P
Characters In-Game: Who are you currently playing in Cosmographia? Connie, she keeps me pretty busy!
Methods of Contact: elpedrososama on AIM, Tumblr and Plurk!
Future Plans: Are you planning on bringing a new character to the game in future? Tell us about your plans here and see if you can find likeminded people!

Character

Character's Name: Connie Maheswaran.

Currently Up To...: What kind of adventures are they currently getting up to in Waverly Bay? For right now, she's still dealing with being in someone else's body as well as dealing with the fusion of two gems she's already met before. THey don't get along the best right now.

Future Plans: Do you have any plans for them in the future? Oh sure! I still want Connie to get much better with her training! I want her to get a new power where she struggles a little with it. I totally want her to get more interactions with the real gems, including the fusion. I'd also like to explore the ramifications of Connie not having any actual parental figures around anymore, and her struggle with getting "vicious" in a fight. I'd also really like Connie to continue trying to explore gem history and what's involved therein.

CR You'd Like: Tell us what kind of CR you'd like - try to be a little more specific than just 'any' if possible! Honestly, I'd like any CR that gives Connie food for thought. There are so many different people from all walks of life, and Connie is the kind of inquiring soul that wants to know about everyone!

CR You Wouldn't Like: Similarly, if there's any CR you'd like to avoid then just let everyone know here, so we're all on the same page. I don't think I have anyone I would not want Connie interacting with yet!

Important Notes: Is there anything we need to know before we interact with your characters?

I am usually quick to reply, either soon after or the same day, so if I let a thread hang for a bit, I might have missed it, please let me know!

Anything Else? y'all know we just use this part for gifs

Player

Name: ten! small letters, there is another TEN around who is all caps.
Characters In-Game: Malachite, Carnelian, and Yukio
Methods of Contact: I am tenages on plurk, and can be found in Cosmo's chats on discord as Runestark.
Future Plans: I am content with my three alts for now!

Character

Character's Name: Yukio Okumura
Currently Up To...: Yukio is currently adapting VERY SLOWLY to no longer being on a murder game where every single thing is out to get you and if you don't prepare for that you're an idiot. It's been very slow going and he hasn't relaxed yet.
Future Plans: He will eventually relax! And then the mer side of his personality he picked up in Ryslig will start coming out more over the fear of being eaten or murdered constantly. Pretty soon he'll be practicing shapeshifting in public for the fun of it, and asking people to try fusion just to see what happens.
CR You'd Like: ..a..any. People who can for short-term put up with his worry over everything being lethal under the sun would be nice, but that's short-term. He's friendly enough when he's not concerned death is lurking! damn you ryslig!!
CR You Wouldn't Like: No arch-enemies yet. He needs to get established first.
Important Notes: He's from Ryslig. Thus he really does think everything is out to get him, because for nearly a year it really was.
Anything Else? \o\ /o/

Character's Name: Carnelian
Currently Up To...: Missing having a skirt on from bodyswap event, and trying to figure out all the triggers to her shapeshifting.
Future Plans: Nooot at the moment.
CR You'd Like: BRING IT ON. People who are interested in dealing with a corrupt gem and a giant floofbeast form would be nice. She's not particularly dangerous but she is huge and prone to knocking things around on accident like that.
CR You Wouldn't Like: Romances. She is not ready.
Important Notes: Carnelian has this problem where whenever she reaches a heightened emotional state she turns into an elephant sized fluffbeast dogmonster gem corruption. It makes life difficult.
Anything Else? where do people get all the gifs

Character's Name: Malachite
Currently Up To...: Currently exploring 'her' island, Mask Island, with Connie and Masumi. Also hunting gem shards.
Future Plans: Get her poofed at some point in a satisfying way, and adjust her appearance a tiny bit.
CR You'd Like: Extremely hard to pull off, but I wouldn't mind people who can put up with her suspicion and generally unpleasant bearing enough to make a friend out of her. She's weak to genuine kindness and is tenaciously loyal once that loyalty's earned!
CR You Wouldn't Like: No people who magically 'know' she's evil please. Cuz she isn't.
Important Notes: Malachite is the direct product of months of being chained in the dark in the crushing depths of the ocean. All she's ever really known out of life are hate, fear, spite and pain, and being loathed and attacked simply for existing, and acts accordingly. Her grasp on anything other than these emotions is tenuous, and her memories of Jasper and Lapis' HAPPIER times are vague at best. This can make her very, very difficult to deal with.
Anything Else? seriously where do the gifs come from

[lumpyspacegem]

Player

Name: Al
Characters In-Game: Amethyst
Methods of Contact:  alkapwnd spacepiratecatdude [Bad username or unknown identity: alkapwnd�] Ibechibb on aim, spacepiratecatdude on skype, and alkapwnd#4721 on discord
Future Plans: Nope

Character

Character's Name: Amethyst
Currently Up To...: Amethyst has currently been kind of listless and lacking direction. Even when something weird happens like the body swap she has a hard time finding motivation for it but she is very upset with the appearance of Malachite and is figuring out what to do about her.
Future Plans: Since Malachite has reminded her about her insecurities and how defensive she gets about her shortcomings, she's gonna have to work through it if she wants to grow as a person.
CR You'd Like: Still working on getting Amethyst to make stronger friendships with those around her so she has something more to fight for.
CR You Wouldn't Like: Nope, even negative CR is fun.
Important Notes: I've been having a hard time lately with my tags and I do apologize for how slow I am. I'm doing my best to stay on top of things but I do appreciate your patience with me.
Anything Else?
 

[nomorechains]

I would very much like to bounce Carnelian off Amethyst sometime. She has her own issues with worth what with being a corrupted gem and all but she could possibly help with some of Amethyst's problems. I'm just afraid of eels since it's my other alt that ... caused those problems ....

Sonico

[torya]

Character

Character's Name: Sonico Yamamoto
Currently Up To...: Sonico just came back from a canon update meaning that to her she's been away from Waverly Bay for like a year and a half and she also went through murderschool. So THAT WAS FUN. She's slowly settling back into Waverly Bay and finding her feet but getting adjusted again is a bit weird.
Future Plans: Nothing in particular! Getting her settled in Waverly Bay and involved in more Gem stuff is my priority rn. It's her birthday on October 14th tho so doing something with that could maybe be fun?
CR You'd Like: CR with other CRAU characters! Sonico's not quite as used to worldhopping biz as a usual CRAU character so she's finding it a bit hard to adjust.
CR You Wouldn't Like: Nothing I'd like to avoid, really! Just lemme know if any negative CR is gonna get really vicious or violent.
Important Notes: Sonico has permissions and an opt-out for her CRAU right here!
Anything Else?

Honoka

[korekara]

Character

Character's Name: Honoka Kousaka
Currently Up To...: Idoling it up! She's part of a still unnamed idol trio with Haruka and Apple. They've been training and performing on and off but have yet to make a real big debut. She's also still training and just doin' her Honoka thing.
Future Plans: Getting her a job! Also, getting her more acquainted with her powers and fighting. Just shoving her in some Gem stuff.
CR You'd Like: Nothing in particular right now! Mostly looking to get her to meet new people and hook some cute girls into doing idol stuff with her.
CR You Wouldn't Like: Nothing I'd like to avoid, really! Just lemme know if any negative CR is gonna get really vicious or violent.
Important Notes: nah
Anything Else?

[korekara]

bodyswap buddies gotta meet up and commiserate over said bodyswap y/y

[nomorechains]

Yes! Though Carnelian rather liked it. Smol! Nice skirt! MANAGEABLE HAIR. It was probably a lot more fun for her than it was for honoka. :(

[connie_maheswaran]

Hey! These two still have a lot of hanging out to do!

Mini

[darknesshermit]

Player

Name: Mini, she/her
Characters In-Game: Nagi "Alice" Arisuin
Methods of Contact: Misheard
Future Plans: Planning on limiting it just to Alice for a while

Character

Character's Name: Nagi "Alice" Arisuin
Currently Up To...: She learned about fusion! And learned that it sucks because she's a distrustful, self-hating mess.
Future Plans: Hating everything a little less and having her friendly mask be broken down a little!
CR You'd Like: People who are so dang loving or trusting that Alice can't help but admire them, or people who are perceptive enough to see past Alice's facade.
CR You Wouldn't Like: Shrug.
Important Notes: She's canonly trans and doesn't pass for cis very well, so, there's that. I'm not offended by IC misconceptions.
Anything Else?

Indy

[letsplayer]

Name: Indy, she/her
Characters In-Game: Marla (Pokemon OC), Napstablook (Undertale)
Methods of Contact: swirlix, snowpoff on Skype or PM one of my accounts
Future Plans: Not planning on bringing a new character in until I feel I can handle it, but if I do, it'll likely be either an OC or Orias (Cute Demon Crashers). Otherwise, just tagging out to the event and plotting for future stuff.

[letsplayer]

Character

Character's Name: Marla!
Currently Up To...: Currently she's flopping around the event in Donatello's body, fighting a hawk thing, and trying to figure out how turtle anatomy works!
Future Plans: Her and Haruka are doing a haunted house later this month! We'd love to do some plotting stuff related to that. Other than that... no not really.
CR You'd Like: Girl needs more CR in general! Friends, not-friends,
CR You Wouldn't Like: While casual friend dates are okay, not here for the ships.
Important Notes: She's got a bone disease that makes any kind of rough contact/combat a potential insta-poof, so unless it's a fusion or some other circumstance (like the bodyswap), she's not here for your horseplay.
Anything Else?

[spookybloobloo]

Character

Character's Name: Napstablook
Currently Up To...: Currently in Tiger's Eye's body, being mopey, the usual.
Future Plans: ...not really planning that far ahead, sorry. Plot with me!
CR You'd Like: Since Mettaton got poofed and hasn't come back several months ago, they've been in kind of a funk. Would love to see them get more friends and acquaintances to hopefully help them out of it!
CR You Wouldn't Like: I'm not sure if they're emotionally in the right place for really intense negative CR yet. Although sitcom arch nemesis level CR is still great.
Important Notes: A few things that I'm putting in bullet points.
-I don't think anyone ICly knows their nickname is Blooky, since that's just what Mettaton calls them in private. I just also call them that because it's a cute nickname.
-Blooky is not a him. Canon is pretty consistent with they/them pronouns, and I figure Blooky cares not for your perceptions of gender.
-Blooky has no backbone, nor do they have any self-esteem. Sorry.
Anything Else?

VG

[chatwithdeath]

Player

Name: VG (she/her mainly)
Characters In-Game: Naomi Kimishima (CRAU), Naoto Shirogane (CRAU), Adrien Agreste/Chat Noir (OU)
Methods of Contact: Plurk: demidemonLove, PM, or AIM: Dragonhowl7
Future Plans: No plans currently, but we'll see haha.

Naomi Kimishima

[chatwithdeath]

Character

Character's Name: Naomi Kimishima (CRAU)
Currently Up To...: Nothing major. Getting over being forcibly changed into Kanji Tatsumi, she's settling back into being her.
Future Plans: Nothing in particular. She is a flexible character, ready to do whatever needs to be done. Most likely, she will be working on shapeshifting into other people, but keep it too a minimum.
CR You'd Like: Unfortunately, any CR is fine. Throw them at her, buuut... look into her Important Notes before interacting, yes.
CR You Wouldn't Like: Nope. Come at me bro.
Important Notes: Check her Stats/Permissions Page. Naomi is CRAU'd from Dangan Roleplay so discussion may delve into things like murder and death. Also, her canon isn't clean either as there can potentially be discussions of terrorism, medicine, emotional abuse, physical abuse, mental illnesses, illnesses in general, and so on. She's a medical examiner/surgeon for reasons. Stay away from topics like that, note the fact she's a fairly serious character, and you're good.

[korekara]

she took it better than honoka

she dealt by locking herself in her room and whining about being a beefcake. honoka has zero taste.

Ami

[songbird_slayer]

Player

Name: Ami
Characters In-Game: Kanji Tatsumi CRAU (topgun_textiles), and Madhuri Qalli (songbird_slayer)
Methods of Contact: AmiJoyDonut is my AIM, my plurk is MechaPony
Future Plans: No new characters. I'd like my second to work out, mostly.

Madhuri

[songbird_slayer]

Character

Character's Name: Madhuri, of Tribe Qalli (Xaela Au Ra tend to just use their tribe names as last names vOv)
Currently Up To...: Working on a canon update for Soul Surrender content, after which she will be fiercely trying to work on her new powers as a gem.
Future Plans: More music practice, mingling, and *complete and utter denial*. She's not divulging anything from the past and looks ahead to the future. She's not terribly happy inside.
CR You'd Like: I'm good for all CR, whether it's positive or negative. I'd actually like someone to crack the mask a bit.
CR You Wouldn't Like: vOv
Important Notes: Folks may notice she's just a goddamn ray of flirty sunshine. More perceptive types may realize she kind of doesn't have an off button.
Anything Else? ...I'd like instead to share a video. I'm working on unlocking this dance for Madhuri. CAN YOU FEEL THE SUNSHINE.

Naoto Shirogane

[pishirogane]

Character

Character's Name: Naoto Shirogane (CRAU)
Currently Up To...: She's back to being Naoto after being Shinjiro and practicing her plant powers (since I will be updating those after the event). Also, practicing more shapeshifting... maybe running wild on Halloween with it? Who knows haha.
Future Plans: Nothing concrete. I tend to go by the month and events to see what happens.
CR You'd Like: Negative CR. Naoto doesn't have much, and tends to end up tuning out people who annoy her, but why not annoy her? Or try to pull her out of her shell more?
CR You Wouldn't Like: Nooope. Open to CR.
Important Notes: Permission and Stats Page here. She's CR'd in from Mythmakers so not only is she Naoto, but she's also Beauty from Beauty and the Beast... not the typical one, but one that has fairies so she's kinda part-fairy herself. So, she is open to discussions of murder and other detective business, but if you have a problem with that, don't bring it up.

Kanji

[topgun_textiles]

Character's Name: Kanji Tatsumi (Mythmakers AU)
Currently Up To...: After finding out he's kind of a goddamn werebeast when it comes to moon phases, Kanji is freaking out a little but is taking advice into consideration. Also, he's gearing up to run his own business. Maybe.
Future Plans: GIT GUD. Mostly, at self-control and not being a sucky boyfriend and friend. He's working on all the things.
CR You'd Like: I don't bite. Lemme at you. Even if it means you playing a jerkwad who wants to poke at Kanji until the monster comes out and do battle. I'm tooooootally okay for that.
CR You Wouldn't Like: vOv
Important Notes: Nah, not really. But if you want an EXTRA bit of fun, if your character has a pet, have 'em run into each other on a walk. Kanji can now speak with and understand animals now, and it's terribly awkward for him to hear hello friend i am dog i wag at you i am having walkies right now who you be while Kanji's trying to talk gem shit with the owner.
Anything Else?

[torya]

I have no idea what the circumstances would be for it to happen but i would love for us to work out what a naomi and sonico fusion would be like :3c

[torya]

... i just realized that this means kanji can 100% understand all of sonico's goddamn cats

clearly we need to do something with this. i have no idea what, but We Gotta.

[torya]

also I would love more Madhuri stuff because she is a SWEETHEART these two need to get their guitars together so they can jam sometime

[korekara]

aaaaaliiiiiicceeeee

clearly you need a smol ginger to aggressively friendship at you
