Infiltrator CR Meme: The Cursed Kingdom!

Once you've decided what role you want to play as an infiltrator, brainwashed to believe you belong in Dolorosa, this is the place to talk with other players about shared backstory and relationships you'd like to plan out for the plot. If you're playing a plot-important role, we'd ask that you not disclose any plot secrets here, obviously, and for ease of identification we ask that characters not change their first names unless absolutely necessary for suspension of disbelief, but otherwise everything is fair game! Just make a top-level comment below with your character's name in the subject line, fill out the little form, and then tag around as you like!

Role in current universe: Gryphon knight!
Backstory/Description of new identity: Pals around with Tim and tends to let him do most of the talking, partly because he's better at it and partly because she tends to be more morally grey about things than he is. Without a partner (Tim) to follow she could have easily fallen in with any of the other groups, but she's good with following Tim around.

She's also been known to hang around with Ezio Auditore because why the hell not right?
Significant changes in personality/mannerisms: She can speak normally for this! Her stilted speaking pattern comes from not learning to speak until very recently and with a new backstory that doesn't apply. After the jaunt, anyone she interacts with is free to notice this and bring it up to her!
Kinds of CR/RP scenarios you're looking for with this plot: Knight bro cr! Maybe she gave your characters extra help with swording or was someone they could turn to just to talk, anything is possible! She's definitely the type to risk her life to save anyone no matter WHO they are, so if you'd like to say that Cass did that for your character I am totally up for it!
Anything Else/: Her body language reading will stay the same, just explained as some sort of weird magic thing she does that she keeps hidden from most people. As always, her permissions post for that is here!

So, they got their start as squires to the Dark Knight, one assumes? XD I don't know how much we want to plot and how much we want to improv, but I am good with either.

I'm good with winging it for the most part, but it wouldn't hurt to have some backstory built up. Maybe at first she resented him a little for having a closer relationship to Mister Dark Knight, but that faded into friendship and now they're just bros for life.

Yes this is an excuse to use this icon again fight me

i love this icon.

whereas he envied her superior skill with lance and sword, and tried to be more of a show-off as a result, but that gave them a dynamic that actually really works well?

definitely bros for life though
hellofist: (let's see)

And then things went all explodybad and Cass was like well shit now what I guess I'll just stick with Tim that seems easy enough

they're only at the tournament because upkeep on knightly gear isn't cheap, and the prizes are a nice way to refill their pockets, since Cass kicks almost everyone's butt. I mean, Tim kicks butt too, but he probably spends more time convincing people to bet on her opponents to up the odds.

gryphon food doesn't pay for itself!

hellofist: (take note)

[personal profile] hellofist 2014-05-05 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)
I would like to believe that there has been at least one instance of Tim finding Cass feeding her own food to her gryphon and being all "YOU HAVE TO EAT TOO CASS" at her
