one | drakengard 3

[selfloving]

This is VERY tentative and I'm not sure if I'd app during this round anyway, as I've got a lot going on at the moment, but I miss playing her and I was spitballing ideas w/ myself for the past couple of months...

PLAYER: Shay (I play Nui “eyestitch” Harime)
CHARACTER: One
CANON: Drakengard 3


AU NAME: Jasmine Musicrelatedlastname
AU AGE: I was thinking early-mid 20s? But dang look at this teen revolution on the workshop here.
AU OCCUPATION: Some kind of civil service, nonprofit work, law school? A career in justice, basically, or at least something where she thinks she’s helping others.
BLURB:

❀ The second child in a very large family who got used to acting like the oldest anyway. It’s very likely her fam contributes to the very high orphan population in Recolle.
❀ She’s very responsible and a classic overachiever. It’s likely that I’ll give her a history in music—probably she’s quite talented or at least has worked hard enough that she has a lot of skill or she is just mind-numbingly awful. It’s one of two extremes lmao. She has synesthesia and it’s really intrusive, but she doesn’t talk about it a lot. It’s sound related, but I’m not sure which specific type just yet. If it’s chromosthesia, the loss of blue and green is probably ruining her life.
❀ Given her canon origins in a fantasy (no matter how much it looks like an upside-down map of Europe), I’m thinking about making her a Recolle native. That means like, 20 years of potential CR! She probably had an opportunity to go out of town for college and may or may not have taken it (chances are she wanted to stay close to home).
❀ She’s involved with a lot of service projects but ends up leaving a lot of them because she doesn’t always give the friendliest first impression. The fact that the world is kind of garbage most of the time has definitely caught up with her and she’s jaded or w/e. There are certainly people she’d take a bullet for, but you wouldn’t know that right away despite her really obvious attachment to doing good in the world.
❀ Because she is a real adult in this universe and there’s no magic BS currently going on with her body, her growth isn’t stunted and she looks…her age, more like the adult form she had for .5 seconds in one of the spin-off manga (essentially, taller with longer hair).

LOOKING FOR:

❀ I feel like it’d be a waste to bring her into a family without a metric ton of siblings. I’d basically hit my gold star goal if flower-based names ran in her family because blah blah Drakengard…That’s my dream situation. Just six+ kids all named after plants. But honestly, I’d be happy w/ a lot of like, wild family situations. It’s just gotta be a mess in some way.
❀ Any AU work relationships of friendships she gets would probably influence what career I chose for her, so throw what you’ve got at me! I could definitely use some help coming to a decision about that one because there are a lot of ways I could go with this and I’m a little spoiled for choice right now!
❀ People who know her more cheerful/friendly side or who have been friends with her for a long time would also be very welcome! Alternatively, she needs at least one “I fucking hate that guy” nemesis.

OPTIONAL ENABLE ME: Have you ever wanted to put a Yoko Taro character into a normal universe and slowly unravel any sense of their world being remotely unkind as they slip further and further into uncontrolled, desperate madness? Have you ever wanted to watch someone else do it? Help me out here.

Alternatively, I’d totally put Nanami Kiryuu from Utena in here if I could figure out an interesting AU for her.

[trettende]

Kaz is the real MVP please know that Hans is Not A Good Guy yet why is he so nice to his employees? it's like he cares about things that make him look good.

it's probably like, a princess-themed strip club that he hates with a burning passion but he will make the most successful club ever, dammit, just to prove his family wrong

[karm]

he's going to be an assassin and he'll practically be playing. himself. but no one needs to know this right,

(except everyone ever calls him out on it and he swears up and down he isn't)

[burningblossoms]

There's also the whole "spiritual manifestation of our inner self" thing going on, but the mystery club has gotta have a dog.

Even if it is just Yukiko's pug.

[sandaled]

YES yes please, geeking out over aquatic critters is the best thing ever

Imagine her reaction when Matthias regains his memories of being an actual mouse

[shinyidea]

my character type is apparently people who would entertain and/or believe yoshiko's personas
but look mari just wants her to be happy
however she needs to be!!!

[lalliho]

tapes a piece of paper that says THIS USER IS SET TO AWAY on the window

[doitrockapella]

STAY IN SCHOOL, DAVID

EDUCATION IS GREAT

and frankly I could see whatever committee there is that reads those essays being like what is this, the kid is making a mockery of the essay, how ridiculous, and then carmen's randomly like no actually this is really clever and speaks of a deft wit, give the money to him

[grumpei]

They're of similar ages, so Junpei might be a neighbor who is always amazed by his excitability? Alternately an exercise buddy of sorts, though he's probably doing less swimming and more cardio/strength training personally.

[karm]

he gets touched by everything involving friendship he's a lost cause

she won't even have to try tbh

[trappingheart]

please go easy on her she is but a small irresponsible bean

[bakamille]

so, those childhood friend routes

[matsuura]

Kanan will be so concerned... Yoshiko are you okay? Do you need an adult?? Mari, where did you meet this weird girl??

[unidolize]

here's a face of DISAPPROVAL

[twostringsonebow]

oh praise that's his favorite kind of teacher, also he'd definitely ask her all kinds of questions in that case!! very excited to be in her class

[cincoseis]

i do this because i love you!!!

okay but realtalk tho i am too busy to app siete alas BUT!! i have a doctor in game if six would like a parent figure

[trappingheart]

casually writes "dia kurosawa is a butt" in spray paint near the pool for all to see

[grumpei]

I feel like Junpei'd be that guy in the gym who is constantly intimidated by her while trying to work out...

[sandaled]

ELI HI IT'S A-ME, AUSTE

Matthias isn't an art nerd but he's a writing nerd, and he'd probably hit her up for art stuff he can incorporate in the stuff he writes. But he's also an athlete (judo) and would be interested in knowing more about kickboxing.

FELLOW COLLEGE STUDENTS

[sandaled]

OH BOY SCHOOL PAPER BUDDIES

[bakamille]

ahhh that sounds like a great mingle idea! I could start her off as a sprout trying out the game before the fc picks her up one day?

[doitrockapella]

I MEAN IF HE'S GOT THE CREDENTIALS she could easily have hired him to be a business manager or a staff accountant or something, the nice thing about her having Multiple Enterprises™ is that she'd accordingly need a fair amount of staff to support that

ALSO PLEASE THINK SHE IS MAD HOT AS MUCH AS YOU SEE FIT, I'M ALL FOR IT

(spoilers it's because she's mad hot, objectively)

[trappingheart]

no, yes, and in the streets clearly up to no good

she didn't choose the hardcore life, the hardcore life chose her

[saburai]

IT'S JUST SNEEZING AND ITCHY EYES AND THINGS (she'd be actually dead a long time ago if it were more serious...)

But honestly she probably has a giant bottle of benadryl or something in her purse because this is a frequent enough occurrence to warrant it. She comes prepared now.

[trappingheart]

YOU UNDERSTAND.........as long as she's not hurting anybody and it makes her happy there's no problem!!!!!!
...okay maybe she's hurting somebody's business with her art but
nobody she KNOWS
