To reserve a 2nd character you must have a pass for the previous month's AC with your first character. For a 3rd character, you must have a pass for the previous two months' AC for both of your characters. In addition, we do ask that the AC for the current month be met and filled into your AC comment by the time of your reserve. It must be full AC.

January Workshop Character Directory

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

PLAYER: Tobyfs
CHARACTER: Usopp
CANON: One Piece

AU NAME: Usopp Barreto (his first name will basically be a made up whim of his parents so feel free to laugh at how weird it is)
AU AGE: 19
AU OCCUPATION: Undecided! Undecided for him, actually, he's on a gap year post-high school to contemplate what he wants to do. Does he want to do art? Does he want to make apps? Is there a future in competitive archery? He'll need a part time job, meanwhile...
BLURB:
I posted him on one of these back in October, and it can be seen here if anyone wants to refresh themselves on ideas they had before. Let me know if you want to keep them or change them.

And, of course, more can and should reply if you're interested in CR or helping me with ideas for him. B)

So far, what I have in mind:
- He was born and lived in Recolle until 6th grade when he had to move due to his father's newly obtained military job.

- A real army brat, he moved from base to base until mid-high school when his dad died in combat like a real warrior. The rest of high school sucked, thanks, war. But by the time he graduated his mom mostly had picked up the pieces and was happy enough he felt okay striking out on a modern day adventure of bumming around, dressing like a hipster in trucker hats, and trying to figure out what to do with his life.

Because he moved around a lot he could have met folks if you want an in that way!

- He went back to Recolle because he remembered liking the city, the uni has a good art department if he decides to pursue that, and it has good archery facilities.

- He always had an affinity for sharpshooting, starting when he was a kid with a slingshot he got as a kid. His dad would taking him shooting when he was old enough to handle the kickback of a gun and he took to it like a fish to water. His mom, though, wanted a less violent hobby for him so she suggested a local archery club in Recolle. He loved it and kept up at it everywhere he moved and started joining tournaments in middle school, winning one after another to this day. He's well-known in those circles, so if anyone is into archery might know his name.

- He will be a real Banksy--meaning, he likes to tag things with his homemade stencils, but it's pretty obvious it's his stencil because he always puts his characteristic nose on shit.

- bloop bloop help me brainstorm more!

LOOKING FOR:
- He will need a place to stay... He'll be in a hostel till he finds one. (Last Workshop someone had an idea for where he could stay, character was Yukiko and her family and a BnB.)

- And a part time job of some sort as his saved tournament winnings is getting thin...

- And whatever ideas you wanna throw at me!
OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: I'M GONNA BE POSTING ANOTHER WORKSHOP THING for a character called Ushimitsu for possible future apping. Plz look. ~~I hope that's not Kosher of me to do but my write up was too long to stick on Usopp's comment........~~
