Important Links :: Reserves — Applications — Invites — FAQ — Calendar

Welcome to our first EMP! If you're unsure of who to app, are deciding between characters, or simply want to see who's bringing who, you can participate below. It is not a reserve. Reserves will open May 28.

The EMP is open to all. You don't need an invite to post to it. If you're curious about the game and are looking to see if you click, you can start here.

• If considering multiple characters, post each one individually under a top-level comment with your PLAYER NAME in the subject line.
• The TDM is scheduled for May 15. It will be open to all. No invite required to participate.
• Invite requests will open with the TDM on May 15. You're welcome to submit earlier but we will not be answering them until after the TDM opens.
• The TDM will have a section where you can express interest in receiving an invite if you don't know anyone in the game. Requests are public but replies to requests will be private.
• For the first round only, all invited players can app up to 2 characters provided they are not from the same franchise or canon. Playing from the same franchise/canon is allowed, but you can't apply for both in a single round. See the FAQ for more.

In the future, we'll also have a separate ATP form. Since the game is brand new, however, you'll find a small ATP section in the EMP form instead where you can ask for castmates alongside your EMP post!

#2! camilla hect | the locked tomb

[go_loud]

Character

Name: Camilla Hect
Canon: The Locked Tomb
About: okay so think of the nerdiest kid you know. Not the one who's constantly getting lost in their own plans and scribbling notes and can turn The Discourse into a whole thing about history, but hang onto that thought for a minute. The one who Cornell Notes everything and is an obsessive perfectionist and prepares for everything, and has a sport they're really good at because their brain does not actually allow them to stop practicing things.
Now make #2 the sworn protector ("one flesh, one end") for #1, who is incidentally both a necromancer (which kind of means what you think it does, and kind of doesn't) and the youngest-ever leader of his...nation-state? kinda?, and make her sport "dual wielding curved blades and being an acrobat". (And/or, "getting people to underestimate her".
That's Cam!

Who sounds really OP, and yeah, but a) everyone in her circle of friends/enemies is OP in some way pretty much, 50% of them much more magically, and b) her whole Self kind of glomped onto doing anything she does with Nerd #1 (aka Palamedes) at age Tiny, including, by age 12, aforementioned Protecting His Entire Life...which can throw a lot of caveats into her choices. Especially when he ends up um, well, SPOILERS.

Luckily, she (unlike Eric) compartmentalizes like a PRO, so she may be screaming on the inside if she's on a planet without Pal, but she will find other things to keep her busy.

Plans/Ideas:
Finding things to do that aren't thinking about her necromancer. Studying the Storms, Diffusion Zones, etc! Taking a LOT OF NOTES ON GLOOP. Handling weird horror pretty smoothly, given her entire canon.
Fighting things and/or people. With swords, not guns. She's familiar by either of the two points I'd drag her from, but she'd prefer not to, really.
Learning how to drive, or, depending on when I bring her from, having already done so and kind of enjoying doing it.
The sheer amusement of her knowing little about ...a lot...of Earth stuff while probably running into quite a lot of Earth people and stuff, and also being confused by the state of technology.

Any characters you want to see in the game?
Canonmates! She is one that I do always love canonmates for. But also, fighters, fellow nerds, people who get along with people who don't talk much, etc.
