Welcome to Recollé's AU Workshop! On this post players new and old are encouraged to help one another make connections for their AU lives and to ask for or offer ideas if they so choose. Please respond to the post with the below form, and/or feel free to comment to anyone else to work things out! Please be aware that posting to this workshop does not guarantee you a reserve, and that multiple players are permitted to workshop the same character. Please find our mod questions comment here.

PLAYER'S NAME:
CHARACTER'S NAME:
CANON:


AU NAME: If there's a name change at all! If there isn't, you're free to put n/a
AU AGE: Again, if there's an age change at all! If there isn't, you're free to put n/a
AU OCCUPATION: Feel free to list if your character is a student (elementary/middle/high school/college), if they own their own business, if they freelance, if they have a stable job, etc.
BLURB: Here you should write what you have for your AU; you can list your character's hobbies, who their friends and family are, if they have any particular quirks or interesting pieces of their history, if they're from a wealthy family or if they're struggling to get by, anything you feel is relevant.
LOOKING FOR: Are you looking for family members or friends or enemies for your character to be pre-planned? Or are you asking for ideas or feedback on your AU idea? Anything goes, just specify what you would like.
OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: Are you torn between which character to app? Let us help! Post your ideas in a comment and let fellow players offer feedback and CR ideas. You can also use this section to ask for canonmates you would like to see in-game whether it be in your specific AU or for different CR.

This is an interesting backstory for Minato and a lot to unpack! I see from the thread above that his memories of Minako will be fuzzy but existent, but I'm curious about the amnesia aspect in general. In what ways are you planning to have him recover his lost memories? Are you planning to have them recovered alongside recovering his actual memories from the game, or will he not be recovering his AU memories at all? With Minako being in game as well, will she be working to help her twin brother as well or are you and Minako's player going with the route that Minato's essentially been glitched as a "new version" of Minato and working with that? What made police stick him in Recollé in particular?

As per the Retrospec guide, though Minato will be going by Yuki Kurusu the name on the app would still show up as Minato Arisato! Would that impact him as well seeing a name he wouldn't recognize?

Mostly these are all questions to consider when writing your AU in your app that crossed my mind from a feedback perspective. In terms of CR the only thing I have right now is Luke knows Minako though not well enough to know of Minato just yet so that could be an interesting approach as well. If you have any questions about the game or would like some guidance in expanding Minato's AU please feel free to reach out and ask! As this is one of the first cases of apping in a character who's been in-game with a fresh backstory, it could be tricky and we don't mind assisting!
