MEME ∞ EMP — May 2025

Meme ∞ EMP
May 2025
Important Links :: ReservesApplicationsInvitesFAQCalendar
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!

nandor the relentless | WWDITS

[personal profile] delaurentiis 2025-05-01 08:37 pm (UTC)(link)

Character

Name: Nandor the Relentless
Canon: What We Do In The Shadows
About:


Nandor is a near 800 year old vampire who has been on the world's slowest redemption arc. He is a former war general of the Ottoman empire, now he really likes the macarena. He's kind of a himbo archetype but instead of a heart of gold it's like copper or bronze.

He has fairly good intentions but he's narcissistic and selfish and often fucks up. He's also desperately lonely and seeks meaningful connection but almost immediately fucks these up too.
Plans/Ideas:
A big part of WWDITS canon is that there are horror aspects but the characters are jaded and nothing really changes for them. I'd love to put Nandor in a jar and shake him until something changes. I'd also love for him to have substantial and meaningful connections and growth that won't happen in a sitcom. Would love for him to want to be a better person and struggle.
Any characters you want to see in the game?
Vampires!!

Congratulations, here's the other worst vampire ever. This one whines and wants his hair brushed.

i feel like she won't even be that surprised? she's met quite a few vampires now and all of them have sucked in different ways so nandor and laszlo will just... check out lmfao

Yes.

I love Nandor a disrespectful amount, so I hope that you put him on the TDM (from one Lonely character to another).
delaurentiis: (pic#17698810)

Yes!

[personal profile] delaurentiis 2025-05-01 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm gonna do it and he's going to annoy the other lonely guy so much he remembers why being alone is best.

The tea he provides is hot and fresh, but so is his sass. Nandor is going to have to live up to that Relentless, but I'm game. <3

Oh my god Mr. De Laurentiis.

I do not need to consider any more characters but I have a wholly neglected Guillermo account I've always meant to do something with.

[personal profile] delaurentiis 2025-05-01 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
On the contrary I do think you need to consider Guillermo because Nandor is lost without him.

I do in fact believe this game needs more of god's perfect idiots, and nandor is one of my favourites

WWDITS is one of my favorite shows and I would just about die to play with a Nandor in any conceivable way so. Looking forward to Vampires even though Jack has been trained to kill them, only the mean ones >.>

ISN'T IT JUST THE BEST. look nandor isn't the nicest vampire but he's TRYING and will fall deeply in love with anyone who is nice to him.
