Looking to be someone’s temporary sidekick.

[Armitage Apolithymius]

Hey all! Trying to make a return to form here but I’m also slightly burned out of creating and driving the stories for other people. One too many sessions as a DM or the face of a party will do that to you. I’d like to take a backseat and just participate in someone else's story for a thread or two. Don’t get me wrong; I’m not saying that I plan on being lazy! I just need to reconnect with my character before I can start driving my plot around again without it feeling forced.

Anyone need a foil to their shenanigans?

ALSO. Currently looking for help brainstorming IC justifications for why my character might have been down and out for roughly a year.

Not sure if I have anyone who can thread with you (yet), but debilitating injuries are always an option! If not, it could just as easily be family matters.

[Armitage Apolithymius]

I don't know if family matters would work--most of Arm's family is dead. And she's always searching for her family's heirloom armor that was lost when they died. Family matters are pretty much Arm's main personal plot. Debilitating injury could certainly work though. Hmm...thanks for the idea! Now the question becomes do I have the injury be accidental and semi-meaningless or do I create a secondary plot around it for her.

[Victoria]

Where is your character based out of, Armitage? Maybe if I pull something together soon I'll have a compatible character to toss ideas with.

[Lunie]

Secondary plot. Gives you RP fodder.

[Armitage Apolithymius]

Armitage is based out of nowhere in particular around Lycia. I’ve been strectching the whole “liquid timeline” thing and had been having threads just about anywhere, back in the day. Right now though my only current thread is in Sacae. I would really enjoy having Armitage have a more coherent plot line so her adventures made a certain kind of sense if you were to read her threads. I’ll admit that my threads before my most recent return could all be read as “one-shot” stories. Both for better and for worse. But I’d enjoy applying more linear plot to my open world play.

And I agree Lunie I think side plot is best. It’d be even more cool to have that injury caused by a PC! Anyone know any certified badasses that I could get put down hard by without feeling like I was doing it just for PLOT?

Sigma has a pre promote Bandit Queen. You could also toss some ideas back and forth with Ryu or Vincent.
