MEME ∞ INTRO & CR — June 2025

Meme ∞ Intro & CR
June 2025
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.)

vash the stampede | trigun stampede | FYN!

[personal profile] skelters 2025-06-07 06:03 am (UTC)(link)

Player

Name: fyn
Pronouns: they/them, nbd
Contact: [plurk.com profile] sdat / journal pm!
About: based in southern hemisphere timezone (aest), i've got two needy cats and work that can get pretty hectic but i am trying to be better about my tagging management! excited to be here and play with everyone :')

i wasn't able to tag out in the tdm because Life Got Me but please opens my arms!!!!!! vash is a clingy pathetic guy who just wants friends, thank you!


Character

Name: vash the stampede
Canon: trigun stampede
Age: 150+, looks mid 20s!
Links: info/permissions here (with some xeno headcanon information!), ic inbox here!

About: vash is a Totally Normal Guy who just wants to help everyone and spread love and peace to the world, you know? nothing to see here!!!! for those who are not familiar with trigun, vash is actually a plant - an extraterrestrial life form that's been genetically modified and developed for energy/material production like electricity, water, food, etc. vash can't produce any of those things unfortunately and to all (most?) appearance he is human.

Wanted CR:
other do gooders: vash is literally a self sacrificing doormat who would put everyone's happiness and wellbeing over his own. maybe they could spiderman meme at each other at some point going hold on a minute @ their awful habits??
cynical inner softies: this kind of people are vash's bread and butter!!! he is stubborn as hell and doesn't know when to back down and will continue to pummel them with his Eternal Cheerful Patience. also if they could just slap some sense into him over the above tendencies that would be great too.
other nonhuman entities: or formerly human? something adjacent or in between? he's spent his whole life surrounded by humans and rejecting his own inhumanness so getting to spend time with people with different worldview / self esteem would be good!
mechanically minded people/fixer uppers: vash is coming in sans his cool prosthetic and been kitted out with a decidedly less technologically advanced junky arm! it would be cool for him to get to know people who are good with tech / are mechanics so if anything needs fixing they could come to an agreement?
FRIENDS: this is basically anyone he comes across with ... unless you're like, super violent and love murder. in which case:
negative cr: i am completely okay with negative cr and would welcome it! just so you know vash is an adamant pacifist so while he would definitely get into fights, he would never deal any final blow.

Plots/Plans: EVERYTHING! he is a nosy busybody so he'd love to get into everyone's business. he comes from a similarly desolate wasteland of a planet so he's pretty good at bear grylls type of survival, and he comes with a myriad of other random skills (including being annoyingly sociable). please come at me, i would love for vash to interact with everyone!

Limits: nothing at the moment!

HI VASH as a longtime Trigun Maximum/Stampede fan I can definitely appreciate that he is a Completely Normal Guy who definitely doesn't have any Additional World-Shattering Powers that he tries Desperately to Keep In Check while Saving Everyone He Can at Detriment to Himself, just a guy. a li'l dude. Definitely not someone who a version of Dr. Strange who is just 100,000+ eldritch horrors in a trenchcoat might be interested in, nosiree

eyes emoji intensifies ...... i am sadly not especially canon familiar but i am SUPER PUMPED for this please, definitely ignore the random glowing because that's Totally Normal! doesn't everyone do that??

[personal profile] elriche 2025-06-08 06:58 pm (UTC)(link)
THAT'S FINE re: canon familiarity all you have to know is he was destined to be a magical superhero who would save the universe and instead became a magical villain who destroyed the universe (by accident. kind of.) it's OK tho he's in recovery and feels real bad about it.

i mean doesn't EVERYONE glow sometimes,,,, doesn't EVERYONE commune with power plants and sometimes summon black holes and get questionably exploited by their twin brothers????? #leavevashalone2025

I enjoyed their starting thread a lot!! Apologies i fell off the wagon at the end but I'm def up for starting something fresh in-game.

There's lots abt himself Logan dislikes but the mutant part is just something he is and he can become protective of people who are also flagged as Other. So maybe a little self-acceptance progress can happen!! Logan's less abt the "we'll all get along" pep talk tho and it's more like "you are allowed to punch the people who tell you that you should die for being different" but you know. He'll give it a good shot.

i did too!! and don't worry about it, the past few weeks were waves hands .... hectic ....

lbr vash needs some tough love (???) to get the message through his thick skull, and he isn't going to be scared by logan being grumpy and otherwise unsociable so this is going to be good! i'm super excited! :')

Hey Fyn, welcome!! So glad you came here with your Vash. (I believe I'd gotten to tag you before on bakerstreet with Wolfwood) I'm sure Vash is going to love hopping from one dystopian nightmare to another!

I'm Freya and I definitely would love to get to thread with him again. G'raha is always up for more friends and other do-gooders. His tech-knowledge is definitely more magitech but he's always eager to learn more from other people as well.

OMG DID WE .... I AM EMBARRASSED I HOPE IT WAS GOOD FOR YOU!!!

i loved our thread on the tdm, sorry i've been dropping the ball on the tags rl has been *house explosion* but i am ready to do something else with the two of them for sure!!!! and really what is magitech but just fancy science lbr

DO NOT BE your Vash is delightful!

And no worries at all!! I'm happy to keep that as game canon if you'd like? G'raha just seeing his guy who has a high pain tolerance, apparently??

And legit right? I know G'raha is going to try to focus on just trying to get a lay of the land at first and then seeing if they can figure out how exactly people are being pulled here (and consequently how it could be reverse-engineered to send people back). If any of that would be of interest while Vash is doing his best to be a good boy!

(Also they are both in the "looks way younger than they actually are" camp.)

hi there, fyn! weeps a bit because oh man, i love trigun maximum & stampede so much (i may have a knives journal shh don't tell anyone)

I'M NOT SURE FERN WOULD KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH VASH, particularly his friendly/affable front. but that just makes it more fun, right? she potentially fits into the cynical inner softie category, though?! softie might be going a little too far, but cynical while still having a good heart, maybe...??? though she is fully ready to kill most of the time, whoops.

she also pings the nonhuman thing though! and she is very obviously not human, unlike vash... so???

[personal profile] longtooth 2025-06-09 05:44 pm (UTC)(link)
NO PRESSURE i just love trigun so much. i was super into the manga as a teen and then stampede came out and the fandom EXPLODED, i was so happy. (my knives is over at [personal profile] chlorokyll ... yes let us do a thing sometime eheheh)
