Character: Vincent Valentine
Monster: Vampire
Current Traits: At the end of the April Event, 'Weakness to sunlight. Strength and powers are greatly diminished.' becomes active.

Upcoming Traits:

Sharp Teeth and claws. Capable of cutting through bone.
Urge to drink blood.
Regenerates from drinking blood, can heal from injuries.
Ice magic, can form and shape ice, typically into razor and cutting shapes.
Mist-form. Can become intangible and capable of phasing through solid surfaces up to five feet thick.

RP Plans/Desired CR: Quiet friendships, teaching people. Vincent knows A Lot About Guns and can train, repair and probably modify. He will be keeping an eye out for people that can fabricate and be willing to work with obtaining salvage that will allow a workshop to be set up (if it's not already, looking at people like you Donatello, Jayce!). Vincent will be willing to teach if he's approach but like a somewhat feral cat, he might shy away from too much/ make sure the basics are hammered in etc. And if people want to learn gun for the WRONG REASONS (that he determines by his own standards) he will refuse. So lots of CR there. Because of the April event he stockpiled a lot of guns so he can be a go-to for that. If he feels someone is not suited to the weapon (as in, there would be weapons better suited for them) he will refuse to help. (But also feel free to chat about ideas/alternate solutions if this is a thing you want).

Once the blood drinking kicks in, he wills be unhappy about it. But he's willing to attempt to master it or adapt to it but will focus on animals. Of course animals might not always be available so at some point he's going to have to confront the need. I don't have plans to have the trait of being; he's been working at mastery of his other shapeshifting stuff too long. That doesn't mean some mental effect from a moon warp might not apply it some time. It'll be good to have people (some have already approached this) to talk to. He's in a unique situation here. Rather than being mostly along and dealing with what he's going through, here's a whole bunch of people going through largely the same thing.

If you're wondering about ice magic, well. I thought it would be interesting to make a sort of storm/icecaller type. I was thinking about the movie, Dracula Untold where the lad conjures up a bunch of clouds to block out the sun.

...No, not THAT cloud. But also I admit I giggled anyway. Wait.

Car things also welcome! Vincent noogles around in a Fast Trait car that looks like the Munster family car. Shamelessly is tbh but you know. He will also be aiming to make it more covered because UGH SUN but this is what he has to work with right now.

Other: Please feel free to friend me on

maruah or Everyworker on Discord and HMU!

Insert a funny picture here... OH I KNOW. Someone from another game made this for me!

Character: Blake Belladonna
Monster: Undead (vampire)
Current Traits:

🐈‍⬛ sharp fangs
🐈‍⬛ mist form (just recently gained this month!)
🐈‍⬛ urge to drink blood
🐈‍⬛ bat wings (currently in the middle of emerging)

Upcoming Traits:

🐈‍⬛ weakness to sunlight
🐈‍⬛ shadow magic

And I plan to add a couple of ice elemental traits on top of that, once she's gained all of her vampire traits, so also:

🐈‍⬛ elemental residue, leaving ice on whatever she touches
🐈‍⬛ uncontrollable elemental surge when emotional

RP Plans/Desired CR: Last month, Blake's hunger for blood went absolutely berserk, resulting in her losing her mind and attacking a bunch of people. This month, she's working hard on self control by way of feeding on monsters and nearby animals, and gradually apologizing to everyone she harmed.

Her campervan has become a bit of a gathering ground due to the fact that a) it's now very recognizable due to having a sexy mural on it, and b) Blake has scavenged a lot of early 2000's nu metal and goth rock and has attracted an emo crowd. If you too would like to be part of the emo music crowd, please make sure you have the appropriate goth clothing and brooding temperament!

I'm always down for more action threads, because Blake largely focuses on protecting people during events with monster attacks.

Also, I'd love some more fellow undead CR! Blake is currently mired in guilt about her hunger and how it's forcing her to hurt things, so commiseration over that would definitely be interesting.

Character: Sephiroth
Monster: Drakonis - Chimera
Current Traits: So far, just sharp teeth and claws capable of cutting through metal as permanent traits. I plan on also keeping current event Chimera's Obligate Carnivore/bloodthirst and Blood Frenzy cuz they complement each other nicely.
Upcoming Traits: Current vague plans:

1. Monster Form (horrible birdlizard)
2. Protean Form
3. Pride/Apex Mentality
4. Fire Breath
5. Feral Instincts

RP Plans/Desired CR: Plans: He is not okay with ANY of this!!! My broad intentions are to have a primary monster form he can become, and most other physical traits FAIRLY subdued (for now) in base normal state. And leaning hard into the psychological ones for a while. I'm intending to play around with the pride/pack mentality and feral instincts a lot to influence his decision-making. As it is, Sephiroth is not prone to socializing, practically anti-gregarious and really would be happier locked in a library somewhere with a nice stack of books. Therefore, drive him up the wall with instincts and impulses that are basically the exact opposite! I'm also planning on making those impulses much harder to control when in monster form, to annoy him further. Vaguely intending to make the ENTIRE CONVOY be seen as His Territory, and everyone in it part of his pack, for station-jostling purposes. He's going to be very resistant to the desire to eat things as rare and struggling as possible, and the longer he ignores it the more likely it is he'll lose his grip on what his target actually is.

SEEKING: People to hassle. 'Friends' or actual friends to inflict pride/pack/flock impulses on, or have dominance scuffles with; he's used to hierarchies already but isn't super intent on fighting for top spot as The Leader comes with RESPONSIBILITIES. However said jumbled instincts will still demand whoever IS at the top spot is worthy of it, so someone he may occasionally ... 'test' for fitness would also be nice. People to coax him into going with his diet changes, instead of risking hauling off and trying to eat a fellow trucker when sufficiently starving. People tolerant of being aggressively chinrubbed on and headbutted by a very large predator of dubious control. Or hunted by the same.

Other: Look at these fluffy bastards, this is the inspiration for planned monster form, to be drawn eventually. I figured out how to MOSTLY get one finally; his primary species are lions, Komodo dragons, and a birdish monster specific to his world, levikrons. (with dashes of rattlesnakes and harris hawks) At some point I intend to draw this so I can lock in the differences, like lil tail rattle and lion ears and lion teeth and a bit of a mane..

Character: Natsuhi Ushiromiya
Monster: Kitsune
Current Traits:
-Ears growing into fox ears (atm, they've grown but only have a little bit of fur near her hairline)
-one tail
-Also fully fox form that she's not good at controlling.
-some white hairs, she doesn't realise those are changes though...
Upcoming Traits: What upcoming traits are you planning to activate?
-second tail, I'm going to have her tail split from the tip and have her freaking out because what's wrong with it!???

RP Plans/Desired CR:
-Someone to watch her freakout at the body horror of her teeth and claws growing in and pushing her human ones out of the way.
-Maybe someone getting trapped in an illusion by accident.

-Learning to drive? Natsuhi is taking advantage of the autopilot but wanting to learn so there's not a repeat of the chomehound hiding in her SUV.
-Probably moping over feeling useless and being a weird monster lady ;-;

Character: Goro Akechi
Monster: Chimera
Current Traits:

• Crow-like talons on his hands that can tear through metal, with black, scaled skin like a crow's legs, usually covered by his sleeves. Sharp teeth that can also tear through metal.

• Black feathers covering his face, arms, and torso. The feathers are hard and durable like armor. Also has spines growing down his back.

• BEEG CROW WINGS, which he can use to fly, combined with the harpy ability to manipulate wind.

• Large, hooked horns that curve forward, black with thin, white stripes.

• Fire breath, though he's still getting the hang of it. Sometimes when he gets angry, smoke comes out of his mouth/nostrils.

Upcoming Traits:

• More animal features! Those who saw him in the first Moon Warp may remember how he grew a snout ending with a hooked, beak-like tip. He's also set to develop white tiger-like hind legs and feline ears, giving him a griffin-like appearance, and a tail... either dragon-like or scorpion.

• A full on monster form he can shift and out of, which takes the traits of his base form, but in a bigger, quadrupedal form, possibly with a longer neck to add to the beast factor.

RP Plans/Desired CR: Open to a lot of things! One of Akechi's curiosities with monster transformations is what they mean and what determines the monsters they become. He'd love to swap notes, gather more information on how different changes affect different Drifters, and the discrepancies even between the same monster "type."

He's already pretty monstrous, and when I start giving him more changes (e.g. legs), it'll feed into some existing complexes, like how his form is shifting to match how much of a monster he sees himself as, but also this unease about if the few people he cares about would even recognize him. He's not very open with his vulnerabilities, and I think Serph has made the most progress on that front, or Faith, but while he seems to be taking his changes with a certain nonchalance, there's more going on.

He had a REALLY close call with Knives recently, and it's probably gonna drive him to pushing himself further and trying to take full advantage of his monster form to ensure history doesn't repeat himself. I'm open to people picking up on his overexertion, between his investigating and in combat.

Akechi is bad at taking care of himself. ...He's also gonna have a tough time fitting into his bed in the convoy, between his wings and future tail. He may need roomies in one of the larger rooms soon...
Other: Feel free to poke me in PMs or on Plurk at

Dorked as well! \o/ I just got back from a convention, so I'm doing a little catchup.

As for funny pics, uhhh...

I've shared this before, but it's just. This boy, I swear.

Character: Levi
Monster: Infernal - Cerberus (Black Dog)
Current Traits:
Dog ears, nose and pads on his hands and feet
Fangs/sharp teeth and claws that can tear through bone
Red eyes (w/black sclera) that glow in the dark
Heightened senses (hearing/smell/night vision)
Bone growths on body (sternum and spinal plates)
Two alternate forms: Big, black german shepherd with red eyes and dog-hybrid form (with more boney bits)
Baleful Howl & Doom Echo
Hatred of Angels and bright light. Repelled by bright lights or holy symbols.
Loyalty Compulsion

Upcoming Traits: probably going to give him a tail soon. He'll have problems controlling its emotional response to things so that should be fun!
Also I want to give him fire powers and maybe wings eventually but that's a bit down the line. Probably something like pack link way down the line.

RP Plans/Desired CR: No plans right now but I would love all CR. That loyalty compulsion and general doggy traits will have him growing more protective of all his positive CR so kind of what to play with that. Eventually it might even make him more sociable!

Also let him tell you about how John Doe is dangerous and you should NOT trust him >:[

Edited 2025-04-25 20:02 (UTC)

Character: Paladin Danse
Monster: Werewolf
Current Traits:

☽ Razor-sharp fangs, which have grown in fully by the end of the month. He's still learning to talk around them so he doesn't sound like Sean Connery, which will probably take him a couple more weeks or so.
☽ Voracious Appetite chimera trait just for this month, but once he has his hybrid form, it will become a permanent werewolf trait for him.

Upcoming Traits:

☽ Fur coat, black, growing in as an extension of his existing body hair. This is just a gradual thing that he thinks he can keep on top of, so feel free to run into him sulking in the bathroom or something while he shaves his beard for the third time that day.
☽ Wolf tail and ears, also black-furred
☽ Pack link, able to convey brief thoughts/feelings/sensations to those seen as pack. By default this is going to include everyone else from his own world, but I love the idea of him unconsciously adopting others that he develops close CR with or feels he has a lot in common with.
☽ Additional wolf-human hybrid form, doubled in height and mass. I envision something similar to a worgen, but with a tail.
☽ Voracious appetite after transformations.

RP Plans/Desired CR:

Danse is a character who naturally lends himself to initial negative CR, because he's brusque and stern and still brainwashed by an authoritarian military cult, but beyond that surface level he's deeply lonely and eager to make friends. If given a chance, it will not take him that long to soften up. He's basically a suit of armor filled with marshmallow goo.

I'd considered giving him the "pack mentality" trait that would have him sorting other people into hierarchical roles and interacting with them accordingly, and then realized I didn't need to waste a trait slot on that because he already does enough of it on his own. So if other people have that going on as part of their transformations, and would like to mess around with that and figure out where he falls on their idea of the pecking order, I'm down for it! He's a big tough guy who's very accustomed to being in charge, but he doesn't mind being bossed around by people he's come to trust, so it can really go either way depending on how he gets along with someone otherwise.

Since the bulk of his character arc is about coming to terms with not being human, I would love to keep collecting other android/robot/synth/etc types and having him talk to them about it. For him, the trauma of "oh god I'm becoming an animal" is almost secondary to the trauma of "oh god I've been a machine all along," and I'm very eager to play with the contrast between the two ways in which he's losing the semblance of humanity he wants to hold onto. I feel like with the right influence, he might even be willing to embrace some of the werewolf changes, because they're as far from machine-like as it gets--but I have no idea, and it's possible as well that he might go the other direction with it and come to see the good in being a synth instead. He's a fairly impressionable person and I think it's going to depend a lot on who he gets close to.

I don't know exactly where I'm going with this now, but--come hang out with a sad robot wolf, anyway. He needs a hug.

Other:

Character: jay talis
Monster: undead (draugr)— here's his ref!
Current Traits:

• eyes shift blue when emotional.
• various internals clearly exposed with no ill effects.
• deer features.
• urge to drink blood, eat living flesh, or otherwise consume life-essence.
• regenerate from drinking blood/eating flesh/consuming energy, can heal from injuries.

Upcoming Traits:

• feeding frenzy: can easily be overwhelmed with hunger and a need to eat above all else.
• cold caller, can summon cold weather and heavy clouds in the form of snow storms or freezing rain.
• weakness to sunlight
• ice magic, can form and shape ice, typically into razor and cutting shapes.

technically, i've been playing around with these new traits only recently (april event) so they are fairly new! and some of which i haven't actually played with in full, so i'd love to test them out and bring them to light! after the unicorn temp, he's going full on zombie deer and will have all of his draugr traits activated.

RP Plans/Desired CR: jayce is going to go back into rune studying next month after taking a break from it this month post experiment Gone Wrong, but one thing he's taken up in the mean time that i'd like for him to get further into is the little workshop/forge he's building at the back of his pick up! jayce is a scientist and engineer at heart and will probably take repairs/projects to keep himself busy. currently he's trying to balance his cannibalism and mental health without spiraling, with serph being his vore godfather. by draugr lore i've also made him quite protective of the convoy and its drifters since the raid so that might me an easy reason for them to interact— he'll probably check up on people frequently, even if he's pretty quiet/gruff/kind of awkward about it. i'm open to all sorts of cr, whether that be friendship, adult cr, kid cr, negative spats, the works!!! the only thing i'm declining is romance, jayce is taken there!
Other: the irony of doing a nercomancy only to become the necromancy

Character: Jolie Harmony
Monster: Fae
Current Traits:
Plant speech: Can gain basic information on an area by speaking to vegetation
Plant magic: Growth, changing, or withering of plantlife
Invitation requirement: Must be specifically invited into a personal cabin or car
Oath compulsion: Cannot betray a promise
Inhuman features: After her first moon warp, her eyes turn gold, skin starts turning green-streaked
Super jump/reflexes: She can leap far distances and dodge more easily

Upcoming Traits: These are still in flux, but this is my current plan...

Elemental extra traits:
Formality compulsion
Invisibility magic
Animal features - antlers, deer ears
Shifting form - driftwood and oak leaves
Shrinking
Weak to iron

Other monster traits:
Elemental shards - plants/tree bark (elemental)
Elemental residue - leaves behind growing plants (elemental)
Stone hibernation, except as a tree? (volare)
Shattering voice (Yokai)
Psychometry (swarm)

RP Plans/Desired CR: She absolutely needs to learn how to fight. I'd love to keep throwing her at other teenagers, but she needs some good adults, too.

Other: She's fourteen and going to basically be a walking, angry tree person eventually :D

Character: Jack Russell
Monster: Yokai (kitsune)
Current Traits:
Multiple tails sprouted after his first werewolf form, total of six.
Swift reflexes when attacked, improving his ability to dodge attacks
White streaks in his blue-gray hair
Spirit marble which takes energy from or gives energy to a person when they kiss (he doesn't know about this one yet)
Illusion magic to create both audible and visible illusions, though not solid
Storm restlessness/storm form will feed on his natural restless nature as well as his werewolf form. He will become sheepdog-sized fox with six tails and phantom fire in his eyes, trailing from his tails, and left in his footsteps.
Phantom fire magic which can produce ghostly flames to illuminate area or shield a person. These flames do not generate heat or burn, but can become true fire with effort.
Prehensile tail lingering from the naga changes of March, transforming one of his six fox tails (1/6)
Fox ears in place of his human ears, flexible and sensitive, albeit not very big compared to a red fox

Upcoming Traits: The Yokai traits are set in stone, but the other traits are still iffy.

Future Yokai traits:
Limited TK
Short distance teleportation
Changing form at will
Lightning magic

Possible other monster traits:
Drakonis - sensitive whiskers
Fae - invisibility magic
Infernal - Doom echo
Zoanthrope - Bestial reflection
Zoanthrope - Pack link?

RP Plans/Desired CR: Jack is already a werewolf so the fox thing is completely separate from that! I would love for him to be able to use his experience to help others with their transformations, particularly were-creature ones.

Other: Aiming for ethereal and fluffy with his various changes, as well as things which will help keep him alive while still allowing him to be his pacifist self.

Character: Kaidan Alenko
Monster: Lightning Genasi

Current Traits:
🔵 Command of lightning, can shape it, turn it into weapons, etcetera
🔵 Absorb element for regeneration and healing, boost powers, or recover energy
🔵 Can meld into element for defense, fast movement, or a power boost
🔵 Excitable, euphoric, or agitated when near main element
🔵 Compelled to seek out and bask in main element
🔵 Aura of elemental color, can cast limited light and color, about the same as a candle

Upcoming Traits:
🔵 Eyes glow with elemental powers
🔵 Element shift, specifically turning his right leg into lightning because of this

RP Plans/Desired CR: I really, really, really want people who'll help him learn it's okay to ask for help. His #1 fear is being a burden, so he has a tendency to take on too much and put others before himself (self care, for him? ha!). Fresh off a galactic war and without cast mates to remind him it's okay to take it easy, Kaidan's reverting to old habits—that of giving 110% towards his duty to protect others. Which is stressing him out, which makes his powers harder to control and gives him migraines.

Also anyone who wants a decent meal or wants to help with a community kitchen. He's so concerned about the state of nutrition in this place. ~~And he enjoys food too much to make lightning his nutritional staple.~~

Other: Aiming for less and less human, which is a trigger because he was treated like a freak due to his biotics, so...

Edited 2025-04-21 21:31 (UTC)

Character: Serph
Monster: Celestial (Angel). He looks like this!
Current Traits:

6 feathered wings
One extra eye on his forehead
Iridescent and glowing hair (after this month's moon warp)
Glowing eyes (after this month's moon warp)
Feathers growing along body
Cleansing and healing magic
Dream-weaver: ability to link dreams with friends and the like in order to share memories, experiences, or share dreams and nightmares (needs player permission)

Upcoming Traits:

Commanding voice: can issue an order that someone must follow (needs player permission)
Hatred of demons (great when he's canonically a demon!)
Affinity for song, and improved singing voice (lol)

RP Plans/Desired CR: The big thing is that he's got that lovely Dream-weaver trait! That means people he's friends with (not difficult, even for antagonistic characters) can share memories/dreams/nightmares with him and vice versa. So if there's anything your character tends to hide and you'd like someone to know... ;) Similarly, if there's something your character wants to know about Serph (demon cannibal AI that comes from a messed up world with a lot of similarities to Revan who's currently got grief and messed up memories on the mind) or you just wanna do a dreamshare and we figure out what would be of interest, we can do that too!

Or a horrible shared nightmare, that's good too (I see u, Jayce). Hmu here or on plurk (

jesii)

Other: He is regrettably very okay with eating people/monsters, so if you need someone to encourage your character to give in to their blood/monster eating desires, he is your guy!!

Edited 2025-04-21 12:06 (UTC)

Character: Faith Lehane
Monster: Dullahan (Undead variant)
Current Traits:

Emaciated Form (She looks corpsey and has a mangled neck. Notably, she wears scarves now.)
Aversion/weakness to Gold (Please give me an excuse to inflict this on her, I beg you)
Urge/hunger to absorb life energy (She doesn't know what this is, it's just been nagging at her, see Grave Touch)
Sunlight power loss (Applies to everything after this point):
Grave Touch (Absorbs life energy. She's not clear on this/how it works)
Regeneration (Fuelled by life energy)

Upcoming Traits: What upcoming traits are you planning to activate?

HEAD FALL OFF. This happened during the February Moon Warp but she's avoided it ever since. Like her other powers, it will only be a thing at night. (The associated neck wound will and has persisted since it first showed up at the end of the April warp)

RP Plans/Desired CR:

I've definitely been enjoying just throwing her around and enjoying how the vibes are vibing (She does not vibe with the vibes, sad to say.) However, some stuff I definitely wouldn't mind in her life:

More heroic rescues
Her backsliding into self-destructive/self-sacrificial habits
Her going apeshit, possibly fuelled by that neglected hunger for life energy she hasn't yet identified
Really, anything that makes her feel more like a monster.
Or anything that makes her feel more like she's worthy and good.
Bonus points for poking her in her fear of being second-best

Character: Murderbot! SecUnit to everyone here.
Monster: Swarm, specifically Thri-kreen. Warning for insect features, feel free to use the opt out if those might get to you.
Current Traits:

- Super jump, capable of leaping twice or even thrice as far as any human, capable of bursts of swift, scuttling speed and enhanced agility.
- Ability to produce chirps, buzzing, etc. This comes in the form of a slightly unpleasant buzzing echo to its voice.
- Mandibles growing from or framing the mouth. (as of current moon warp)
- Chitinous armor, capable of blocking blades and absorbing moderate blows. Comes with grey mottled discoloration. (as of current moon warp)

Upcoming Traits:

- Sharp mantis claws or stinger.
- Tremor-Sense: Receive information based on footsteps or similar vibrations through the ground; typically can register the presence of a person or object, and generally pick out physical features such as gait, weight, etc.
- Wall climb, can scale all but the most slippery of surfaces as though walking on flat ground.

Potential/currently undecided:
- Extra eyes, may be normal or compound.
- Limited Telepathy: can communicate with other members of the hive (ie close friends and the like) through thoughts. These thoughts tend to be limited to emotions like empathy, or simple sentences or single words.

RP Plans/Desired CR: Currently SecUnit's physical changes are making it uncomfortably buglike. Between its usual SecUnit physical differences like the inbuilt weapons, the changes to its voice, and now the more physical changes like the mandibles, it's meant to generate some subconscious (or conscious) discomfort in others. It'll try and get a mask to cover the changes, but I'm happy to have characters being slightly unnerved by it, whether they're friends or strangers. It will oscillate between using those features to try and make people leave it alone, and trying to hide them so it doesn't scare people off too badly for it to do its job (protecting everyone!).

A lot of its personality means that it tends to make a negative first impression, and it is very defensive once it feels that it's been wronged, but even in negative situations it's willing to put its own life on the line to make sure people in the Convoy don't die, so stuck fighting together is usually a good option for salvaging a bad first meeting! Also if others end up physically fighting over something, it can step in and tell them in no uncertain terms to knock that shit off. On the other hand, treating it as competent, autonomous, and respecting its boundaries (aka don't look at it) are surefire ways to get it on your character's side forever.

It'll eventually get a collectivist hive mind, but that's one of the very last changes I'm considering, so for now the only psychological effects it's dealing with are the ones it brought from home. As for the telepathy: I'm still not sure about this but SecUnit has such a lively internal monologue that I think it'd be fun to let people get a peek past its usual awkward/terse exterior.

Other: Anything else!

Character: Millions Knives
Monster: Celestial / Angel
Current Traits: As of the end of the April event, he'll have white angel wings and a blue eye on the back of each hand. They seem to move and blink independently of his own vision, but have markings identical to his own eyes when caught in bright direct light, and also remain visible when he uses his claws.
Upcoming Traits: Thinking his next trait will be commanding voice, if anyone wants to opt in to play with that! He's already trying to bully and coerce cr into doing what he wants so it felt apt, smh. For non-angel traits, sometime soon I'd like to add plant speech and nature affinity.

RP Plans/Desired CR: Knives is still new to the setting and very pissed off about induced monster transformations, as one of his extreme fears is becoming a guinea pig for humans. This has made him paranoid around the Convoy, on top of learning humans in other worlds tend to be just as shitty as he considers them to be in his own, and he eventually snapped and tried to kill Akechi.

Luckily Vash intervened, and his main priority in the game right now is protecting Vash and avoiding anything that might accelerate monster changes, so he'll be back to reining it in for a while and being slightly more chill toward human characters? Perhaps??

He's highkey delusional, so to convince himself getting monstered isn't So Bad, he's going to accept the angel changes as proof of his preexisting divinity and superiority to all those gross ass other monsters. Keep huffing that copium, Knives :) I am totally going to slap him with more drastic temporary changes in future events lmao... I just need to space it out to avoid him going into total meltdown mode too quickly.

In general, he's trying to assess who can be useful to him and will help him get what he wants. He can be very volatile, violent and manipulative, so if you'd rather not deal with him or only in a limited capacity, his permissions/opt out is here. On the flipside if you want negative cr and to put your character through the wringer with him... points at eyes points at you...! Let's talk.

Other:

Character: Len Darin
Monster: Satyr
Current Traits: The following are all sort of becoming active at once.

- hedonistic
- revelry mindset
- musical knack
- enhanced sense of surrounding
- wilderness affinity

Upcoming Traits:

- horns 😈

RP Plans/Desired CR: As you can see, Len's starter traits seem pretty innocuous, and tbh when you hold them up against his existing personality, they don't stand out all that much - not in a way he'd immediately notice, anyway. For now, he thinks he might have been spared the Monster Treatment™ that everybody is getting. Let us disabuse him of that notion. :)

Friendships! Antagonism! Opportunities for Len to flex his crafting/weapons fabrication skills with folks! There are several of those around, and I will find u. He's very friendly and gregarious, in addition to being wildly flirtatious. Please let him flirt at you, he has Horny on Main disease and now that he's Satyr-oriented, it's terminal. 💀

Monster-hunting and scavenging is kind of his bread and butter, being a post-apocalyptic wastelander, so very open to meeting others or working together with others in this way. He's also not unfamiliar with the concept of not jiving with others, so if you want any antagonistic CR, shoot me a message and we can see if there's some fundamental ideological disagreement they might have! Or maybe they just hate each other's personalities! On his first day he cut a guy's finger off so anything can happen!!!

Thus far he's gravitated more towards those people from his world, but that's out of an abundance of caution, and I'd like to see him lend a hand and get some more general exposure. He's a great guy to have in a pinch even if he gives off stereotypical cowboy vibes.

Other:

Character: Arcade Gannon
Monster: Naga

Current Traits: full breakdown of monster details here

his active traits for the latter half of the month/foreseeable future are:
• scales
• four arms
• forked tongue/ability to taste air and read another character's vitals/etc
• cold blooded (but they've been in the desert, so this hasn't been an issue for him, he's feeling great 🐍)

Upcoming Traits:
• venommmm - all he'd have to do is accidentally scratch someone/something to start them tripping out (it's hallucinogenic) but nothing specifies it has to be a bad trip, so. y'know. i'm just saying this could be funny too.

• petrifying gaze - i'm also interested in him discovering this one accidentally, at some point, though it's more likely to get used on enemy monsters than cr. (unless someone wants to make him mad enough to give them a very pointed Look.)

• (almost) full reptile (serpentine) form that can be switched in and out of - he will not have control of this, so i think like a very stressful/dangerous moment could be a good place to throw it in. let him figure out he's now also got terrifying boa constrictor muscles to flex at the same time.

• plant speech - idk i just thought this one would be fun and funny. the plants talk and they're kind of dumb, apparently. he's going to have the weirdest day out collecting herbs at some point.

RP Plans/Desired CR: arcade is pretty skilled at seeming just friendly enough, but never really getting below the surface with people. so more cr willing to push through that and actually get to know him in a meaningful way/become trustworthy enough for him to be genuinely open with would be great. (that said, i am also enjoying his extremely surface level cr where there is an obviously mutual desire to not talk about things ever, so i'm always down for more of that, too.)

a big point in the next month or so will also be him fixing up his truck (especially repainting the doors) so that the back half/the roomy part of the cab are both a nice livable space (by Wasteland standards). i've been thinking about buying it the tough trait or some weaponry or something else in the future, as well, but nothing firm yet.

research buddies! making medicine out of plants was his whole boring job before he got here, and it was not working out, but this place has weird magic plants sometimes so. the hope is renewed, bring him weird plants you find, tell him about useful plants you know about,,, just plant things. and science things.

Wasteland first aid classes are always available. let him teach you how to not die out here, he'll be happier the more people can reliably take care of themselves and each other.

gravejuice

Character: zack fair
Monster: gargoyle
Current Traits: monster details here!

his currently active traits are:
• heightened vision/glowing eyes when emotional
• horns

Upcoming Traits: i don't have a lot of big plans for him yet since i'm still feeling out his monster form, butttt

• stone hibernation - needs to come up, he'll probably fall asleep in the convoy common spaces at some point and turn into a big rock. very normal, very cool.

• wings - i want to have a plan for this because it'll be a big deal for him, so i'm probably going to wait and see if there's a good opportunity to introduce them coming up next event.

• tail - i have no idea what kind of prehensile tail to give him, but i'm leaning lizard-y. open to suggestions.

RP Plans/Desired CR: friends!! more friends! he's still getting on his feet around here, so people to get along with (very easy, he is extremely friendly) or fight alongside or help out of trouble, yes to all of that.

deeper cr eventually to bond over questions about humanity (especially other characters who were already having issues with this in their own canons, too).

other military types, he's been in the army since he was 13 (also very cool, very normal). any other genetically modified super soldiers or living weapons in the chat??

gravejuice

Character: Zero
Monster: Yokai - Kitsune
Current Traits:
Swift Reflexes - he gained this during the raider attack. He is aware of it and has started to look into doing it at will.
Upcoming Traits:
Multiple tails - he will have 7! I considered less but I checked a boss in the zero series and made my decision.
Hybrid and full forms - He will be a robot fox monster in either form. Debating on the design. I kind of want the timing of the first change to be unexpected. Might dice roll it. Might just pick the moment that feels right.
Illusion magic - this I’ve been planning since I saw the trait. It is too good for some reflection once he updates to X8.
Lightning magic - Another way to heal and in general feels very fitting for Zero. He has always been associated with fire and lightning to X. Being more water and earth.
Hair change - like his alternate armor, solid white hair.
RP Plans/Desired CR: My plans are to dig into the mysteries and keep building cr. I’ve been having a blast with that and that’s where I’m at. Zero himself is dealing with being different while holding onto old routines.

Having a purpose is keeping him from really reflecting on how tired of violence and war he really is. But it will come up in time. Especially as the changes start to
Really change him physically. I’ve got plans in the future for a few things. He has an interest in what happened to bring the world to this point. Finding out if there’s a way to get someone the shifts they want. And in general figure this world out.

All in all, he is around to help repair things. Adjust and just be a person. Actually not have to worry about which friends he might have to put down. Get reasonable amounts of shutdown time and not have to rebuild half his body half the time. And be changing along with everyone else. It is a calmer life than he’s used to and he has to come to grips with that too.

Character: Apollo Justice
Monster: Dragon
Current Traits:
- Scales, by now he'd also have spines growing in
- Horns, taking those at the end of this month going forward
As a non-combatant Apollo has been able to avoid a lot of things that prompt transformations, but I'm working on slowly changing that.

Upcoming Traits:
- Claws/teeth
- Instinct to collect (coffee mugs)
- Shattering roar (just don't let him do it near the cars unless you like not having windows)

RP Plans/Desired CR:
Apollo has really just been trying to survive tbh! I know he's talked to a lot of people so far but he could still use friends, or possibly someone to teach him survival skills and/or how to fight. Pretty much his only useful skill is knowing how to cook, and while he'd absolutely pitch in and help with cooking for the convoy, he could definitely stand to learn a few other things.

As far as monster-specific things go, Apollo is already visibly turning monstrous and he's not happy about it in the slightest. My plan is to finally start giving him some attributes that he can use to defend himself with, plus a couple of other fun thematic things. Like collecting coffee mugs. I plan on buying that very soon (probably this round), and from that point on Apollo will absolutely trade for mugs or offer favors in exchange for any that the others have scrounged up.

Character: Imhotep
Monster: Harpy
Current Traits: I think I'll have him end the month with wings, he's brand new so he doesn't have a lot going on yet.
Upcoming Traits:
- Feathers/talons
- Wind affinity
- Nesting instinct

RP Plans/Desired CR:
Imhotep is brand new, and could use CR of all kinds - friends, enemies, people to talk to about religion or comedy TV shows, pretty much anything!

So far his 'buddy' Apophis has been making an effort to save up all the feathers that Imhotep has been shedding at the end of both last month's TDM and this event, partially out of the belief that Imhotep's feathers might have a little extra magic juice in them. These are probably destined to be made into arrows or decorations, but if anyone in the convoy needs feathers for a crafting project, the boys have plenty that they're sitting on.

Imhotep is also going to end up nesting in his ship, which will be mildly embarrassing, but it also means he'll be scavenging specifically for soft and comfy materials. That stash could end up being useful in some way to someone.

Other:

Character: Pyrrha Nikos
Monster: Angel
Current Traits: Pyrrha's brand new, so N/A. But by the end of the month, she'll gain the starting of a glowing halo around her head.
Upcoming Traits:
- Hair turns bright iridescent and glowing white when using her Semblance. Can be 'turned on and off'.
- Hatred of demons/avoidance of darkness. Kind of like a more unnerved feeling in her gut than typical for a Huntress.

Generally starting slow for the moment. Wings are a far, far away trait.
RP Plans/Desired CR: Friends! Dear lord this girl is desperate for friends, and she's only just been put through the culmination of a decades-long hero complex. Pyrrha's a deeply compassionate friend, loving and caring and having a ton of good advice that she may or may not follow herself. She's semi-recently come into the world of having friends, so anyone who wants to talk to her, or needs help with something that requires fighting is welcome to call on her.
