OOC Intro #3
Welcome to Apocalypse How!
You've made it to Gloucester, and you're probably in one piece! Mostly... This is our OOC Intro post, a place for new players to introduce themselves, get to know one another's characters and find see who and what and when might click.
This month, the mod-run event will be posted on September 25th. Be sure to check the Calendar to see what else we have going on!

Can We Add You: n/a
Introduction: I'm Yvie, NB, I live with my fiancée and a couple pets, and I'm mostly a tabletop RPG GM. I also do some hand sewing projects and play a lot of The Sims 4. My fandoms are all across the board but include Magnus Archives and Rusty Quill Gaming, true crime podcasts, pretty much any creepypasta, Why Women Kill and various other video games, movies, shows etc.
Availability: I live in EST and tend to tag later on in the evening. I am slow to medium pace depending on the threads, and love a good boomerang session though I will backtag for a month or two.
Extra: I'm happy to keep TDM threads as canon! I'm okay to handwave them and start a new interaction or keep going on them.
Age: 31
Does Character Have Powers/Cursed Items: Yes - she is a witch/Gifted and can do some marginal magic by using a Ritual of knotting and twisting string around her fingers (or doing the movements of it, though that's much less reliable). She hasn't trained her abilities much, so she can mostly only do little stuff, though she has an Affinity for healing magic that saps the life out of nearby living things. So that's lovely and she almost never does it.
Entity Affiliation(s): The Vast
Permissions: HERE; Please note that her history has some discussion of survival cannibalism, please please fill out the opt-out if that bothers you! I can easily play her without bringing it up (she's almost completely not guilty or traumatized about it), or you can opt-out altogether.
Information: Abby is your typical urban fantasy type character, I guess? She lives in a world where some people can do magic, are called Gifted, and basically everyone knows about it. If you know much about Jeff Calhoun's world (an OC here as well), they come from the same one.
Personality-wise, she's very practical and has a dry sense of humor, she can be pretty sarcastic, and she's just really not super great with emotions. She has a hard time expressing and explaining what she's feeling and can be a little flat because of that, though there is a lot going on under the surface and she's not exactly intimidated by or afraid of her own emotions. A lot of times she tends to brush off what she's feeling or the terrible things that have happened in her life with inappropriate jokes that might not even seem like jokes at first because she's so dry.
If you'd like to know more, she has a whole biosheet here.
Plotting: I don't have any specific plans just yet besides getting her some connections! I really enjoyed her TDM threads and would be excited to do something new with those people as well as figuring out some new stuff to do with new people!
She actually finds all the weird supernatural stuff pretty interesting, like a real life ghost hunter show or something. She does not yet realize the true horror that she's signed up for.

Do you want to keep/continue the TDM thread or handwave it and move on or do you wanna start fresh?
no subject
(I'm also good to start fresh if you'd rather them meet under different circumstances! Or to keep going with the TDM thread-- ok I'm using too many words to say "all of the above" and that is not helpful)

I have a plotting comment for Abby for the event here if you wanna plan something?
