obsidianooc | reputations & plotting meme

Greetings, inmates!

The purpose of this meme is two-fold: one, to plot and plan threads with the other players in the game! That part is self-explanatory. You are encouraged to use this meme to plot closed logs with other players as there is no group intro log.

And two: to start feeling out a daily routine for your characters, what kind of relationships they have with the guards and NPC inmates, and what kind of reputation they have overall! Even new arrivals will start to get a reputation pretty quickly, so don't worry if your character isn't established yet.

This sort of background planning affects things like: the reputation each block has, characters that may be punished more or less than others, how easily characters will be able to bribe guards, which characters might be pegged as good potential snitches by the guards, and so on!

Reputation Section

Does your character obey the rules, or try to skirt around them?:

If your character is disobedient, what sort of rule-breaking would they engage in?: (Dealing or buying contraband? Starting fights? Loitering in the meal room?)

Has your character ever been to SHU?: (if your character is new to the prison you can assume no)

Is your character social, or do they keep to themselves?:

Is your character more of a leader or a follower? Or neither?:

What might they be doing on an average day?:

What's something about your character's behavior that the guards might like? What might they dislike?: (even if your character is generally poorly behaved, the guards may still find something to like about them! For example, if your generally violent character loves watching TV, they may intimidate other inmates to stop fighting or being rowdy in the common room. Think carefully and try for one example of why they'd both be liked and disliked! Of course, there will be some characters who are exclusively disliked and exclusively liked.)

How is your character perceived by other inmates, in their block and outside of it?: (Of course they all have varied personalities, too; some might like your character and some might not. Just generalize what you think might be their basic reputation!)

If they asked around, what might other PCs hear about your character?: (Any rumors, true or false)

Where would you like your character to end up, in terms of reputation and their role in their block and the prison as a whole?: (vague goals are fine; these don't have to be endgame goals! If your character has been here for a while ICly, you can give us a rundown of what they're already doing!)

What does your character think of the Anomaly?: (Rumors of the Anomaly and its influence on the prison have been spreading among the inmates for a long time. Some inmates revere it, some are afraid of it, some are curious and some are in denial.)

OOC Information

Name: Milo
Timezone: PST
OOC Limits: Incest, rape, and child sexual abuse. I know they'll be important elements to some characters, so I accept that I may be exposed to them and I don't expect a warning on every glancing mention; I'm not going to get upset at someone for playing their character accurately. Warnings on posts that heavily feature it and/or hand-waving cr and interactions that unavoidably deal with those topics is all I need.

IC Information

Name: Farrah Gille
Block: B
Sentence: 4 years
How long have they been at Obsidian?: 2 weeks

Reputation Section

Does your character obey the rules, or try to skirt around them?: Follows the rules in general

If your character is disobedient, what sort of rule-breaking would they engage in?: Buying contraband (painting & art supplies), potentially more if there's something in it for him

Has your character ever been to SHU?: No

Is your character social, or do they keep to themselves?: Likes to be around people though rarely initiates actual conversation.

Is your character more of a leader or a follower? Or neither?: Neither, content being follower for safety

What might they be doing on an average day?: Drawing in the common room, library, or other communal place. If not drawing, then reading whatever garbage he can get. Exercising in his cell when his cellmate is out.

What's something about your character's behavior that the guards might like? What might they dislike?:
Like: doesn't make trouble, willing to do art for them for free
Dislike: he's french, his drawings can be creepy, weird how he's just sitting around drawing

How is your character perceived by other inmates, in their block and outside of it?: Not sure at this point. He's not openly aligned with anyone, not acting as if he's a threat to anyone's status, but not obviously fearful either.

If they asked around, what might other PCs hear about your character?: Boy's rich, OR he's not rich anymore because they took away all his money when he got locked up. Might've done something way worse than fraud to get sent here.

Where would you like your character to end up, in terms of reputation and their role in their block and the prison as a whole?: I can see him settling in relatively comfortable, with protection from a gang in return for bankrolling their stuff or giving access to his moneyed connections outside.

What does your character think of the Anomaly?: Doubtful it's real, but vaguely curious.

Plotting Section

CR You Want: Anything! Friends who will talk at while he's quiet (tell him ur secrets and he will adore u), people who will contently exist in the same place as him and/or deflect people trying to be shitty (his ideal social situation). People who want to see what they can get out of him, people who are shitty to him. Flirtation

CR You Can Offer: Art lessons, drawing things for your character, a person to witness or be a neutral third party to shenanigans. He's got quiet little brother energy. Farrah's a listener who'll tolerate a lot of poor behavior and enable criminal ones if the interaction pings the power exchange/transactional part of his brain (ie scare someone away who's been bothering him and he won't protest when you steal his soda. say you like the other kind of soda better, and even if you were trying to be mean about it, next time he'll pick up 2 cans of the kind you like so you each have one.)

Current Plans: Nothing really.

Don't know if this is anything, but Squalo knows some French (enough for a simple conversation) so if he'd like to reminisce or annoy the guards with bird language, hey.

Hell yeah!! Farrah would be pleasantly surprised and delighted to annoy some folks :D

Reno's going to get all up in Farrah's personal space.

Whatcha' drawing? Why you so quiet? You secretly a little freak inside? Yeah, he'll take that soda.

The quiet ones are the fun ones to crack and find out what's inside. Paint him like one of your French girls~
