Meme ∞ Intro & CR

June 2025

Travel — Setting — Locations — Network Info — Journal Codes

Welcome!

It's time to introduce yourselves! Use the form below to get out there and start plotting. New and old players alike are encouraged to post to the Intro & CR.

A mingle log will be posted on June 8.
While we won't be doing intro/mingle logs every application round, we'll have one for the first two rounds (June and August) to help everyone get settled! You can also check out the Bulletin for information on weather, broadcasts, and incidents.

Notes

• Characters can arrive in-game on any date throughout the month of the TDM. This means characters do not have to, and typically will not, arrive all at once. Arrivals will be scattered and more difficult to predict. Use this to stagger CR, give characters a couple weeks without seeing each other, or whatever you feel makes it interesting!
• Since base AC is low, players need to make AC for their first month. TDM threads continued into the month are perfectly acceptable as long as the comments submitted take place in the current month.

Updates

• We've made some updates to the Invites page to reflect the game's current player cap status and added a player cap count to the Taken page. Our player cap is formally 70 players. The FAQ has also been updated to reflect these changes.
• A reminder that the 2 characters per round allocation was for the first round only. Moving forward, all players, current and new, can only apply for one character per app round. (You may still have a total of 2 characters.)

gustave i am so sorry for what you are about to deal with... (girl who is experiencing withdrawals from the internet, girl who is experiencing withdrawals from lack of almond milk substitute)

but omg YES ME TOO!! i actually just took a gander at the mingle and there's many Options if we wanted to do smth with that before next months event hehe

[satanicpanics]

YES. there's nothing he'd love more than getting an Actual Pirate to play a game of d&d

[satanicpanics]

YOU

AGAIN

i can't wait

[satanicpanics]

he would love it LMAO. it might take him a bit to put it together but when he does, it would be the highlight of his life and i'm totally down for it!

[oomfies]

this has me cry laughing imagining lottie creating a rivalry in her mind with a very fashionable lad like eight.. she would be fully nice to his face and yet go look at those sneakers in her mind

that is to say YES i do enjoy this idea and the shenanigans it can create hehe since lottie is very focused on being #1 and above trends, she might feel threatened at him having a head over a market she doesn't.. her demographic are booties after all!!

[satanicpanics]

please give this to me you have no idea how much i want cr with the wwdits cast

[eyesite]

ah, yeah, i see... i definitely thought it was devastating, but i was more on the peeved end of "this feels a little too close to trauma porn/continuing to kick me while i'm already down" than any of that. (plus, the author started using sexual assault as an ~*edgy plot point again, which was very disappointing to me since that was my only big problem with the first book.) i probably would've lost all faith in the next book if the thing with cassius didn't happen at the end of dark age. i am, unfortunately (?), a Cassius Enjoyer

pax is wonderful!!! such a good character. and i like elektra too. i just loved the voice actor for ephraim and what a unique angle he gave to the story/world. just as a heads-up, since you're a fan of the audiobooks: for light bringer, they went back to only having TGR do all the povs. which was a bit of a shame (even though i think he's amazing). i never liked any of the folks who did lysander's chapters, but i looooved who they got for virginia and lyria. i did like the first person who read for lyria's chapters, but moira quirk was extremely good as well. and the person who read for virginia was just PERFECT to me.... i just LOVE virginia i LOVE HER!!!!!!!! but red rising is such a feast for good characters

i am just clenching my fist with you... i also LOVE the concept of the Hunt and a lot of the Hunters. they're just good, messy fun. you're right tho, tma is ALSO a feast for good characters when u think about it.

[oomfies]

anne would be so right in that yes, she will die here unsupervised and left to her own devices YGEUGYFEGY arguably lottie might fight her on it but in the end would be like maybe i'd die or whatever but i'm not dead, so

THAT IS TO SAY hi i am so interested in where they'd go because lottie bounces off gremlin's and Extremely Cool Slay Women very well.. there's a high chance she'd become either endeared enough to be her ride or die or go okay mom and it excites me i can't pinpoint which just yet uwgyfuyf

[satanicpanics]

I CAN'T WAIT FOR HIM TO PUT IT TOGETHER. he's going to be so annoying with questions about her world when he does...

i'm totally down to continue our tdm thread BUT i just put up my mingle top level if you see something there you prefer!

[satanicpanics]

i think they could literally be the absolute best of friends LMAO i can't wait. tell him you can play drums, jesse, he'll make it happen...

[satanicpanics]

fellow car painting enthusiast! 🤝 between that and the tapes, i can see them getting along well enough as Fellow Youths

[vestments]

🤝 someone who gets him. like, who needs a job when you can just CREATIVELY "FIND" both things and also possibly a little bit of money

ironically, i think someone else questioning how real everything is would actually push him to go OH OKAY, GUESS THIS IS HAPPENING more than anything else

looking at your post for daisy (i'm canon blind! what's new!), maybe it could be interesting if they encounter each other in some shape or form cage fighting — marc would definitely gravitate towards it as an "easy" way of getting some cash, given he used to do underground boxing as a merc. otherwise, they definitely seem to have a lot in common wheezes which may or may not be a good thing for daisy

[vestments]

jdkslf lmao marc's just gonna be like WELL THEN when he realises wanda is, in fact, of maximoff fame. it'll definitely recontextualise their first conversation, even if he won't have any clue about any of the mcu-specific ... anythings.

but man i need you to know i loved the journey of their first meeting from DIFFICULT through to WEIRDLY WHOLESOME and i'm so excited for the world's most awkward tea party to happen

[eyesite]

yeahhh, it was definitely high investment (esp with how much work the mods were putting in), but it was so rewarding. i do treasure it as a highlight in my dwrp memories

hell yeah, i'd love to! the really long campaigns i've been doing with my friends have all been homebrewed (original settings, scenarios, etc.) by our DM, so i'm admittedly less familiar with some of the more official dnd worlds/campaigns (though i did briefly join my roommates for an in-person strahd campaign, which we didn't finish). my oc is actually a homebrewed werefolk race, so it's probably a bit closer to how shifters function vs. how werewolves tend to function in normal dnd (as a curse)? though if we weren't playing with homebrewed stuff, i probably would've eyed shifters... they are so neat

ohhhhh LMAO yeah probably. poor martin and fern... so long-suffering, saddled with these warlocks and warlock-adjacents 😭 ofc, john takes it further, considering he probably wouldn't be alive (or, at least from some indications we get in the show, barely able to put three thoughts together) without his connection to the eldritch thing, SO........ nah, im sure they will figure it out (':

[primepool]

that's honestly.... so progressive of her... maybe some ye oldes can have rights

[primepool]

LMAO I JUST REMEMBER WATCHING THAT FIRST EPISODE LIKE "oh my god......... does erin know"

[elriche]

the best part is gonna be that wade's gonna know their gf's were straight-up fridged for their development and how MESSED UP that is!!!! so problematic fam and stephen's gonna be like "i have cognizance of a thousand worlds and i have no idea what the fuck you're talking about sir"

[elriche]

NO HE'S GOTTA FIX IT OR WHO IS HE REALLY

HEEHEEHOOHOO I'm tapping out tonight but I just read gwaha's prompts and he's first on my list to hit for the morning 👀👀👀👀 ABSOLUTELY he wants to know everything he can of this place that has caged him specifically all these folks from the multiverse to FREE him THEM

[tricorn]

hello!! i'm very intrigued by nashua and would loveeee to throw jack at her, i have some ideas about the ghosts she'll see if she meets him 👀

[retrievalist]

logan is like the top tier character of all time, im so glad you brought him

100% agreed on all of the above, they're a bit too similar to uh not have some interesting interactions. idk what what you have planned already and as you can see i have a big fat ? where plans should be but im excited to throw them together and see what sticks? maybe they're work colleagues or smthg LMAO

[retrievalist]

I wasn't planning on toplevelling at the mingle, but I'd be happy to throw up one for jason!! otherwise i was also thinking about having eliot check out the bowling ball murder too sooooo maybe 👀

[heavymetals]

Pleaseeee do ♥ he'll be honest from now on, he promises!!

[nashua]

Sick!!! Nashua is completely unprepared for real life historical pirates but I'm so down. I'll throw her at Jack's mingle top level at some point today. (No ghosts in this diffusion zone as per mod overlords, but we can jumpstart the CR. ☺️)

[sawel]

LISTEN you're preaching to the choir bc i have the whole song memorized so when i read those lyrics i was like WAIT!!!

AND MAN! that's The Question with rune and brand bc like. they have a soulbond and rune really really loves him, he's the most important person to him in the world ;; SORRY NOW YOU GET ANOTHER QUOTE but he says:

"He's a fucking riot. Sometimes it hurts trying not to laugh out loud. I never get tired hearing what he'll come up with. Through all the darkness. All the horrible times? I've had the most extraordinary life because he's in it. [...] I cannot lose him."

BUT then rune also has a guy who is his soon-to-be fiance (addam) and addam often sits in the middle when they're chilling together so. waggles eyebrows.

[opticular]

no worries!! but yeah, scott would treat the bowling trip like a teaching session lmao and not so much as a fun trip tbh but they'll have fun. he just won't acknowledge it lol

he's definitely the coolest complete with sunglasses 😎
