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!

Deadpool... from Deadpool

[personal profile] primepool 2025-05-01 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)

Character

Name: Wade Wilson (a.k.a Deadpool)
Canon: MCU, post Deadpool & Wolverine
About: Wade was a normal merc for hire that happened to star in the first successful R-rated comic book movie after Blade (respect on his name) who you may have heard of for having the third most successful movie in 2024 (you're welcome) who got MegaTortured into being a mutant who can't die. Now he uses his powers for good by financing the entire CGI gore industry in Hollywood as well as killing people. For money. (And sometimes for moral reasons, but those are a lot less likely.)

Wade has what you call "flexible morals," and unlike his fellow mutants burdened by being stuck in PG-13 films, does not hesitate to use them to get what he wants. Unfortunately (for him), what he wants most is family and love and acceptance, which is a little hard when you're super ugly and morally flexible and have no filter between your brain and your mouth and also you murder people a lot.

While his mutant power is never dying, Wade is also blessed with the power of knowing he's a comic book slash movie character who doesn't exist, which means he breaks 4th walls all the time. While his 4th wall (or 16 wall) jokes are usually ignored, he can rest assured that not only is he the funniest person in the room, but also the funniest Deadpool.

Plans/Ideas: Honestly most of my ideas amount to three things:
+ The stupidest situations imaginable
+ Getting into or starting a cocaine empire
+ Killing people
+ A fourth, secret found family thing

Any characters you want to see in the game? Deadpool is easy because of the fourth wall thing, and he has extensive comics, MCU, and movie knowledge, and he will use it. Whether that's a good thing or a bad thing remains to be seen (it's usually bad for everyone else.) So anyone from comics or movies or generally Famous Pop Culture will be very fun for him!

Additionally I'm very intent on the 4th wall thing not being annoying, so he will NOT be the kind of person to point out a character is dead in their canon or they their wife is cheating on them. However, if there was a reboot with a new actor playing them, he might mention liking said actor in something else they were in, for an example!

we definitely have to do the secret found family thing as wade grapples with the idea TWO wolverines are gonna fall in love w/ him (don't deny it)

Loving the idea of playing in this game with a Deadpool! Just curious, as far as yourself goes, how do you handle it when you're less familiar or canon-blind to a canon?
primepool: ([la] 079)

[personal profile] primepool 2025-05-03 06:21 pm (UTC)(link)
It will be my first time playing him so I hope it lives up!! For me and since this is specifically MCU-Deadpool, I'm really playing with the rule of funny -- obviously he knows All The Comic Knowledge when it's convenient, but he also seemingly doesn't know people if the rule of funny calls for it (like calling Elektra Wonder Woman, not knowing Gambit b/c he never had a movie, etc.). But I'm also willing to do research into a canon I don't know just for a joke!

POSSIBLY Maelle from Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

[personal profile] lamortvirtuose 2025-05-01 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Literally got enabled by seeing potential castmates on this page... but I've been considering her while playing the game! Originally my plan for my second was Lucy from Fallout, so if anyone else has interest in playing Maelle PLEASE do not be dissuaded by my interest! I would love to play with anyone from Clair Obscur ;;


Character

Name: Maelle
Canon: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
About: Maelle is a 16 year old career orphan from a world where everyone dies at a certain age, decided by a deity-like being called the Paintress. She joins Expedition 33 on a quest to stop the Paintress, despite having several more years to live before her own decided death. She's a shrewd, hard-edged girl with a soft spot for sad dads and poetry, with a somewhat fiery temper who leans on sarcasm to deal with a world that is, to be honest, really fucking horrible to live in.

Plans/Ideas: No plans on anything yet, because just being a new world that isn't fractured into pieces AND has people older than 34 in it is going to be overwhelming enough on its own.

Any characters you want to see in the game? Any other Clair Obscurs obviously so I got roped in by them (of my own accord)... I'm planning on making her my 2nd after a little bit of time post-opening so I can actually finish the game (don't @ me) and absorb it!!

Lucy MacLean from Fallout (TV)

[personal profile] sunnygoose 2025-05-02 07:47 am (UTC)(link)
I ALSO still have Lucy in the back of my mind so it's gonna be between her or Maelle.... but both are such Good Gals


Character

Name: Lucy MacLean
Canon: Fallout (TV Series)
About: Lucy MacLean is your very average vault dweller from the perfectly normal meritocracy of Vault 33, in the year 2296! Though the daughter of the vault Overseer, she's worked her butt off her whole life to be reasonably skilled at a good deal of things AND remain physically healthy so she could live up to her necessary destiny of bearing the next generation of vault dwellers... who would finally go to the surface!!

By the way, everyone on the surface of the world is dead (presumably) after a nuclear war wiped out the world (presumably). America's fucked, at least! However, the vault dwellers don't know that, considering they've been in Vault 33 for 200 years, and they were raised to think they would be eventually leaving the vault once the land was no longer deathly radioactive in order to spawn the next generation of America.

Until, of course, a bunch of raiders break in, kidnap her dad, and Lucy decides that, by golly, she's not gonna stand for that and she's gonna leave the vault that has ALWAYS been her home to find him!

Raised in traditional American values, Lucy is a kind, patient do-gooder with a naive streak that gets absolutely obliterated as she attempts to survive the post-nuclear war wasteland that is the great U.S of A! She's very frank about most things and approaches problems head-on, but lacks the finesse of socialization that comes with, uh... not being raised in a nuclear fallout shelter for her entire life. Fallout specifically is a world that sort of mixes 1940s/1950s Americana with futuristic technology, so she knows modern pop culture to be black and white cowboy movies... but also knows how to fix up a robot, if she needs to!

Plans/Ideas: Generally Diadem is similar to the wasteland, but obviously this place has WAY more people in it, and they generally appear to be thriving! It helps that the water is not radioactive (probably) and the cars actually work and haven't been rusting for hundreds of years!! She will be FASCINATED with how ancient some of this technology is, but how helpful it can be! Generally my plans with her involve her getting into being a car mechanic/tinkerer, and being as helpful as she can be!

Basically, we always need more women in STEM, and she's here to fulfill that need.

Any characters you want to see in the game? OBVIOUSLY the Ghoul would be AMAZING, but also my goodest boy Max!!
