Intro/CR Meme - Small Town Setting

[uploadedmods]

Intro/CR Meme

Welcome to Uploaded 2.0! Our first setting will take place in the small town of Corwin, Indiana. This secluded town boasts beautiful scenery and a simple way of life. Yet, intertwined in the roots of the small community, there is an ominous presence unbeknownst to most. A fanatical cult dwells at the core of this borough. They possess the belief that ritual human sacrifices will appease the Devil and carry-on a longstanding “truce”, preserving Corwin’s way of life.


Our first event will take place at the Church. Every year, the congregation throws a holiday bash. Blessed with good weather, the events are able to span both the churchyard and the sanctuary itself. With attractions like a Christmas lights display, a hot chocolate stand, and booths peddling handmade wares, this convocation attracts every local. Those visiting the town will be encouraged to attend as well, tempted with a free glass of wine or the delicious home cooked finger foods on offer.



Cult members, your objective during this event is simple. Touch base with one another, and insure that everything at the party goes smoothly. While some curious guests may try to wander the church, you’d prefer for them to stay in the main areas. The basement is strictly off limits.

Tourists, you are fascinated by this small town celebration, and look forward to enjoying everything the party has to offer. Be sure to check every activity, even if only briefly, to get the full experience.

Locals, this party is your pride and joy! Help set up, encourage everyone else who is working hard on this lovely December night, and relax with a cup of hot chocolate. Maybe you’ve set up a table or activity of your own, or maybe you’re really proud of the dish you brought - in some way, you’ve contributed.

Since our check-in counts for December activity, please remember the opportunity to post your threads to the bonus activity (link coming soon!) page. Corwin will be our setting from December through January, encompassing four events. Our next event will be in about two weeks - please keep an eye on the calendar for the specific date. You may use the form below for the CR meme, or you may use your own format! Tag around, and have fun!

OOC:
Name: Lila
Contact: PM or divineshark
Interests: Tales of, Persona, Saga... I'm not too active on Plurk but I do read through my timeline regularly!
Tagging Habits: GMT-5. My tagging is pretty sporadic, but I'm usually active in the evening. Always up for backtagging. :3

IC:
Character: Genis Sage
Role: Buddy Cop
Housing: Genis lives in a small house, possibly rented from someone since he only recently moved to the area. The lights never seem to be turned on inside. The house doesn't have much in the way of decorations, but it is clean and tidy.
Personality: Small, sassy child who cares a lot about people. He is cautious of his surroundings and wary to trust other people, but he is friendly and tries to be polite and helpful.
Plans: Genis doesn't mind his role that much this time around, so he'll probably roll with it; he feels like he has freedom to follow his own sense of justice with it and will go along with that. He might try to test the "no-one will question that he's 18!" to see how far that can go. His main objective will be trying to figure out what's going on since the current setting seems more relaxed than what he'd expect with his previous game experience.
Desired CR: Open to anything! Both positive and negative CR is good. :3
Anything else: genis rn:

WE ARE BUDDIES OH BOY

Oboro doesn't believe that this kid's 18, but that's what his license says so... he'll roll with it without much comment LOL

If Genis is investigating the cult, oboro will do it with him - acting like he doesn't know a damn thing

[twohares]

Genis is clearly 18, his liscence says he did back in October! I'm curious to see how they'll bounce off each other as colleagues. The sad thing is, Genis will totally believe he doesn't know a damn thing and that they're going to do the right thing and take it down together! :'')

[generalstudies]

hitoshi is definitely squinting at this "18" thing but like.......... he's definitely going to drop hints about the cult not being on the up-and-up. as much as he can at least asdfghjkl

[twohares]

He is definitely 18, even if he looks even younger than Hitoshi ok... (He'll keep up the act best he can. orz)

Dropping hints sounds good- especially if Genis is unaware of Oboro's involvement while he tries to investigate it with him. Definitely potential for drama there. B)

[generalstudies]

Yeah, he'll definitely be kept from saying too much but he'll try and drop hints. about how maybe. just maybe. his not!dad you're working with is totally down for murder. and don't ask if he'd really kill a kid because you're 18.

[thetyger]

Atsushi has no problems believing the "18" issue outright. He may make an attempt to awkwardly interrogate Genis for any information on Oboro and/or the rest of the police force to see how deep the cult is intertwined with the local authorities, without specifics of course.

[twohares]

That sounds good! Genis might try to get more information out of him as well and see how much he knows about what's going on...since Genis knows nothing.

[thetyger]

Asking him questions about things is only a good idea if Genis is prepared for tangentially related wordvomit.

An underage boy squints at another underage boy at the free wine booth

[twohares]

...yes pls. 18 might not be the legal age to drink in the US but not like Genis knows that. |D
