➥ Iddy

Contact: Ihdreniel Can We Add You: Sure! I also have PMs open and a public timeline, so I'm easily reachable either way. Introduction: lol how does one talk about oneself. My main hobbies/interests are languages/linguistics, travel (RIP), photography, and reading! RP is pretty much my main/only form of fandom engagement, but my fiction tastes tend towards sci-fi, horror, and historical fiction. LOOKING FORWARD TO LOST IN SPACE S3 NEXT MONTH Availability: I'm in EST, and my optimal tagging times + tagging speed are all over the fuckin place. Extra: I did not TDM this go-around!

➥ Callisto

Canon: Xena: Warrior Princess Age: Twenties or so Does Character Have Powers/Cursed Items: N, but she's dead in canon so in-game her soul is going to be bound to her sword. Entity Affiliation(s): N/A atm Permissions: HERE Information: Callisto is violent, angry, cruel, and obsessive; she's also depressed, traumatized, and grief-stricken. When she was a child, she saw her family and village torched by a warlord's army, a thing she has not processed or dealt with even a little bit. Unfortunately, she's a peasant girl from Ancient Greece, which means she turned to (self-)destructive revenge rampaging rather than, you know, therapy. She's unpredictable, stunted as fuck, and definitely not the ideal recruit to help save the world - but she wants to go home and continue her quest for bloody vengeance, and if she thinks helping ADI will put her in a better position to do that, then she'll help. Then again, if an Entity comes along and makes her a better offer... WELL, WE'LL JUST SEE WHAT HAPPENS. Her app is here if you're interested in some more in-depth description! Plotting: I am incredibly into culture shock and fish-out-of-water scenarios of all kinds, so if anyone is interested in having their character help her adjust to a world that's a few thousand years ahead of what she's used to, come at me. Someone take this girl clothes shopping; her default outfit was designed for the male gaze a Mediterranean climate, not a Massachusetts winter. In terms of CR, I like a good mix of things and am really open to anything! She's vicious enough that fights and antagonism are easy (let's see how long it takes her to get kicked out of ADI housing), but she has enough depth to her that going beyond that is doable, too.

IDDY IDDY IDDY IDDY IDDDDYYYYYYYYYYYYY

[myfavoritemurder]

Sarah!!!!! Cannot wait for these two disasters to be disasters together again.

[abrightboy]

So exciteddddddd

[inutilis]

someone playing from XENA?? hello, amazing, I am 100% here for this... beautiful 😌

haha, that is to say - welcome!! I hope you have a wonderful time and look forward to harassing ...harassing Callisto with a dumb fool who might try to be a questionably good influence?? on her... maybe, either that or they'll just end up doing increasingly Dumb things while arguing like cats and dogs, who can say how these things go for sure,

but either way, lovely to have you!!

[myfavoritemurder]

ABEL, OMG... I'm only familiar with the books, not the manga or anime, but I love him so much ;; Please do harass her with him; I feel like they could have a really interesting dynamic!

[inutilis]

dramatically touches my chest in canon-familiarity,

the fates have aligned......... and their fates are sealed, this disaster will absolutely happen!!! I am looking forward to it now 🤭 what could go wrong (we say, as Gloucester begins burning in the bg)

[myfavoritemurder]

The bright side: she's probably a step up from Cain! Probably.

[inutilis]

you know what......... we take what we can get in these trying times and if those are the standards we have to meet, so be it. as long as no one loses their heads (??? to be determined)

will Callisto sit down for tea

i am utterly living for the thought of Callisto having to sit down for tea,

[myfavoritemurder]

I will absolutely arrange a thread to catch her at a time when she would sit down for tea.

She'll just look like either this



or this



the entire time.

[sorser]

Aaaa Callisto!! BOY this brings me back

HELLO and welcome! I’m Jen and I play Stephen Strange here. Would she perhaps like to meet a tired sorcerer who may or may not try to tell her to chill out a little

[myfavoritemurder]

Absolutely

She will, however, refuse. Chilling is for losers.

[cacophonish]

FUCK YES CALLISTO

I can't wait for Jeff to meet her again. Well, for the first time, since this is a different game and he's from a wildly different canon point so WHO KNOWS what the dynamic will be!

[myfavoritemurder]

EITHER WAY I'm looking forward to it! Can't wait to see what young Jeff is like.

[bossyboiler]

Callisto: When you absolutely-positively need to have a 'fun' psychopath.

Hi Iddy. My name is Charly and I have an original character named Kate Cordello here who I am flinging at her intro log. Welcome to the game!

[myfavoritemurder]

THE FUNNEST 8)

And excellent; I'm looking forward to bouncing them off each other!

[ratjesus]

HELLO AGAIN IT'S CHASE/THE DARKLING FROM THE VILLAGE

Super stoked to see you in this game!!

[myfavoritemurder]

I HEARD YOU WERE PLAYING A RATBOI HERE HELLO

[ratjesus]

Hell yeah I am! I can't wait for callisto to say hi to this lil druid guy.

[myfavoritemurder]

She will def be a huge pain in the ass

[medicative]

Hello, Iddy! I play Callisto's new roommate, Emily Dyer, who is somewhat like the polar opposite of her in that she's every inch a classic caretaker type - friendly, kind, and going to initially take to the news of having a roommate by trying to be welcoming and sweet. However, she's also used to managing a variety of tempers, so we'll see whether or not this explodes or how much they're going to end up clashing, particularly since their outlooks are so different. I'm super excited, and welcome!

[myfavoritemurder]

Aaah, hello! I saw you were on hiatus and so I didn't want to bug you, but if/when you're able I'd love to do something with them! Callisto will probably be out a lot, even at night, but she'll definitely still come back to the apartment sometimes and an early run-in would definitely be likely.

[medicative]

Oh, it's not bugging at all! If you don't mind me being somewhat slower, I'd be happy to do something with them - Emily works full time in the medical department as well, so early sounds quite good for them.

[myfavoritemurder]

I don't mind at all! I have a log up if you want to throw Emily there, or I can write you a personalized starter if you'd prefer that.

[medicative]

Maybe something personal would work? So that they can meet in housing.
