KEEPING

House-Shaped Capsule - A small container with a strange drawing inside. Holding the capsule will cause various voices to warble in your ear, though you can only make out snatches of conversation.

51. Shovel - A normal shovel. For digging. You know, with all the dirt you have access to.

60. “Personal Space Reminder” - A small handheld device that, when you press a button, generates an external current of electricity. Could be dangerous if you touched someone with the electric parts!

09. Scarf - An incredibly comfortable scarf, if you don’t mind the dull brown color.

06. Hand-Made Paper - Just a loose stack of really fancy bespoke paper! To make those letters you write in case of your death really pop, you know?

57. “Letter Opener” - A serrated combat knife that wouldn’t be out of place trying to survive in the wilderness.

Forget-Me-Nots: A rather impressive bouquet of small blue flowers. It is said these particular flowers represent true love and respect to give to someone you never want to forget.

59. “Extra-Large Spice Grinder” - It’s. It’s just a full-on Medieval-style mace. (x2)

15. Malört - A bottle of a foul-tasting liquor produced and distributed exclusively in Chicago, Illinois. It’s literally named after wormwood, if you don’t like strong and bitter alcohol you’ll probably have a bad time.

Silk Cut Cigarettes (got from Flayn) - A white, slightly crumpled box of cigarettes with a purple square on it. Smoking is bad for you, kids.

Vial of Demon Blood (got from Chloe) - A small, dusty glass vial with a handwritten label that reads “Demon Blood”. Please don’t drink it.

The Ace of Winchesters (got from Chloe) - A magical lever-action rifle that supposedly has the power to annihilate demons. Works as a regular gun, too!

58. “Almond Flavoring” - A tightly-sealed vial of some kind of powder with a skull and crossbones on it and a very direct warning label informing the reader that it’s Literally Just Cyanide.

04. Hot Sauce - A bottle of very strong hot sauce! Use at your own risk!

TRADING


37. Wetsuit - A full skintight wetsuit! Somehow, despite the random nature of the vending machine, it fits you perfectly.

11. Ten-Gallon Hat - A hat perfect for wearing in a western - or on stage singing country music. Yeehaw!

65. Incredible Soaking Device - A water gun! Surely you will all be very responsible with this. (x2)

51. Shovel - A normal shovel. For digging. You know, with all the dirt you have access to.

53. Origami Instructions - A book of instructions on how to fold paper into cool things! Unfortunately, it doesn’t actually come with any paper.

66. At-Home Planetarium - A glass ball that lights up and projects stars! Doesn’t work if the room is too big or if the lights are on, though. (x2)

02. BBQ Sauce - A bottle of… barbeque sauce. Might be cool if you had, like, a barbeque!

47. Bootleg Bear Plush - A plush of some strange bear that’s black on its right side and white on its left, with one poorly-stitched red eye. Who is he? Why is he here? He has a terrible aura... (x2)

61. “Social Distancing Device” - A six-foot-long staff, with a pointed blade at the end. Yep, it’s a spear! Has all the powers of a spear, too. Like stabbing. (one from vending, one from Adeline)

30. Rations - A set of military rations. At least they’ll never go bad?

08. Water Bottle - A bottle of delicious spring water. Refreshing!

43. Freeze-Dried Ice Cream - Pretend you’re an astronaut! Only available in vanilla, but there's an ad on the back for other flavors.

10. Diamond - Literally just a raw diamond, about the size of a pea, that looks freshly dug up from somewhere.

16. Marionette - An intricate and complex puppet that either looks creepy or cool, depending on your point of view. Surprisingly fun to mix and match with each other!

41. Gummy Fish - A ziploc bag of red fish-shaped candy. Actually pretty good, if you like that sort of thing!

62. An Egg - Can the vending machine offer you one of these in this trying time? Hard-boiled, at least.

34. Blobfish Kigurumi - No one asked for this. No one needed to bring this into the world. (x2)

08. Water Bottle - A bottle of delicious spring water. Refreshing!

56. Pin-Up Calendar? - A calendar for the year 2015, featuring lurid pictures of… various robots? Sorry, Data and Shard. (x2)

43. Freeze-Dried Ice Cream - Pretend you’re an astronaut! Only available in vanilla, but there's an ad on the back for other flavors.

54. The Dreaded Knarrevik - An IKEA-branded nightstand! Comes unassembled in-box with the instructions missing. Good luck! (x2)

35. Labcoat - A standard white labcoat, perfect for pretending you’re a lab assistant to some kind of professor!

01. Globe - A spinning globe of the Earth! Country lines guaranteed accurate at… some point in time!

24. Black Lotuss - Oh man, this is like the most expensive trading card in the… hang on now, it’s counterfeit! What a ripoff!

39. Bathrobe - A cheap deep red bathrobe, for when you want to look classy in your study but you just aren’t the kind of person with money for things like “a study” or “books” or “quality fabric.”

27. 9999 in 1 Game Device - A handheld device for playing retro games! There’s actually only about twenty, they just repeat in the menu until they reach 9999. Also they all suck.

62. An Egg - Can the vending machine offer you one of these in this trying time? Hard-boiled, at least.

69. A Cool Refreshing Beverage - Nice!

68. Foam Dart Pistol - A small pistol that uses pressurized air to shoot foam darts! No notable brand, but it works well enough.

04. Hot Sauce - A bottle of very strong hot sauce! Use at your own risk!

29. Monopoly - An obscure version of Monopoly based on a cartoon you’ve never heard of called “The Rocket Kids.” But hey, it’s still Monopoly, everyone’s favorite game for building closer bonds with your friends and family!

32. Velvet Cape - A full velvet cape, perfect for swishing around and pretending you’re either an old-timey aristocrat or a vampire. Also useful if you wanna get a LARP started in here.

31. Wizard Hat - A big pointy blue and silver hat! For commanding mystical energies, or maybe just looking like a dork.

22. Live Bait - A styrofoam cup just… full of worms. In case you want to go fishing, or pull a really mean prank!

07. Life-Sized Stuffed Penguin - A stuffed penguin about a foot and a half tall. Looks almost real, but is almost unbelievably soft. (x2)

ADELINE MERROW
the oceanologist
[personal profile] oceangirlfriend

I'm not quite sure what to think of her. She seems out of place on this ship. Said that she developed a majority of her own anatomical modifications--though unsure for what purpose other than to see that she could.
ALBEDO
#1 elevator attendant
[personal profile] calx

Needs to lighten up. If anyone gets killed by lacerations or by going mad via cursed sword, we know where to point the finger.
ALICE
D4 D4 D5 A4
[personal profile] conceivesfrenzy

Called me a creep. Thinks of herself as far more important than she actually is. Fun to irritate. Seems utterly unconcerned about the potential threat of death, and I'm convinced she's probably killed someone before. Not sure I want to get involved in whatever she and Decus have.
ALLENBY BEARDSLEY
danger goose
[personal profile] ignobel

Quite enthusiastic. Comes off as a little...naive, if I'm being honest.
CHLOE PRICE
blaze of glory
[personal profile] hellahighwater

A fellow punk. Seems to cope by either blazing it up or drinking heavily--but as long as she shares, I'm not about to be her parent. She seems to carry a weight around her neck, though she seems reluctant to even talk about it. Whatever. We've all got baggage.
DATA
the real boy
[personal profile] ltcommandroid

My roommate. Quite disarming to talk to, and unlike any individual I've spoken to before in the way that he's always upfront and speaks without ulterior motives. Having someone so genuine makes me a little nervous, if I'm being honest, but he seems to mean well.
DECUS
mail-order lover
[personal profile] thisaroma

I'm not even sure where to start with him. He seems to have an obsessive love for Alice and a need to protect her, despite the fact that she clearly seems to hold a level of disdain for him. Threatened to fight me if I insulted her in his presence--but I'm more than capable of taking on a hormonal twink.

He also needs to stop wearing that goddamn cologne before my nose falls off.
FILBO FIDDLEPIE
the mayor
[personal profile] ahelpingpaw

A kind, earnest individual. I worry about him sometimes--he seems to extend himself quite a lot. That cheerful, friendly nature can only go so far. He probably puts on a facade--and who could blame this? This whole ship must seem like hell compared to whatever he came from. I can't imagine anyone of right mind deciding to murder him.
FLAYN
saint baby
[personal profile] cethflayn

Another kind soul on this hellish ship. Her profile says that she's well over a thousand years old, and she insists that it's not true, despite being an awful liar. Since we don't have access to any of our magic, I doubt whatever she's hiding will be relevant, anyways. I appreciated the tea she brought me.
FREYJA
the goddess of love
[personal profile] dokkalfheimr

Powerful. Attractive. Eloquent. Snatched away from her realm, which has concerning implications. Has an air of grief and rage about her, though it is unlikely she'll ever find it in herself to share with anyone. I don't blame her. It's only a matter of time before she cracks, though.
JASPER
the prettier jasper
[personal profile] guffawsungraciously

I'm almost certain this man is divorced in one way or another. If not literally, then at least in spirit. Has a sort of detached attitude--he must have seen quite a lot during his time in the army. Maybe some day, we'll be able to play a proper game of cards.

...Do he and Sylvando have some sort of history?
LALLI HOTAKAINEN
the grumpy one
[personal profile] silentscout

From a version of Scandinavia that got taken over by a magic virus. Zombies, maybe? Difficult to really tell. He seems to take things seriously, and dislikes it when people don't take him seriously, so title seems accurate. Teenagers, am I right?
LORNA
the unfortunate one
[personal profile] bonesorter

Quiet. She shouldn't be here. It's always the unassuming types that are hiding things.
MAGICA DE SPELL
witch tryhard
[personal profile] magycks

Yet another person who has an overly inflated view of herself. I can hardly take her seriously when she's the height of a primary schooler. Had she still had her amulet on hand, I'm sure she'd rend us all apart for our insolence. But for now, she remains a non-threat who is quite fun to annoy.
PLUMERIA
the lewd dream
[personal profile] paucipan

Holds humanity in a low regard. Has a long relationship with Lady Freyja as he retainer. Promising to keep her safe. We started off alright, and then...she didn't like it when I said that she wouldn't be able to hold onto that promise forever. If you ask me, she's just setting herself up for heartbreak down the road.
REIKA RIKUDOU
cooking mama
[personal profile] leaveittomother

She seems...exhausted. Doesn't quite care of what others think of her, I reckon. I'd need to talk to her more to get a better assessment.
RISOTTO NERO
the deadly mofo
[personal profile] deathmagnetic

I appreciate a man who's direct. No, not in the way that Data is direct--I at least know that Risotto's not quite all he seems. He seems to be quite sure of himself in most aspects, though it does seem like somewhat of a front, if I'm being honest.
SARA WEREC
apamnrwl
[personal profile] onlyyoucan

She's far too serious for her age. Lighten up a little, will you? You're not going to help yourself by worrying yourself to death. You're seventeen, for Christ's sake.
SCOTT PILGRIM
michael cera
[personal profile] queceracera

If you want my honest opinion, I think he's an idiot. But an entertaining one, at that. Perhaps the Captain felt sorry for him and rescued him from whatever shithole he came from--in this case, Canada. Seems to regard the whole world as a video game, and hardly takes anything seriously--not even death.
SHARD
secret to everyone
[personal profile] sharddrive

Ugh...where do I even start? He went and killed someone. We can stand here and blame him all we want, but the fact is, he would've never been in this position to do this if the Captain hadn't taken us here.
SYLVANDO
the clown
[personal profile] hypnowhip

Flamboyant. Funny. Cute. Quite a good listener, actually. He seems to try quite hard to keep spirits high. It's a little disarming how comfortable I feel around him, and I'm not sure what to do about it.

Eh. Sod it.
YEAGER
post-life crisis
[personal profile] scythegun

I like this guy. He's got a good head on his shoulders. Doesn't seem concerned at all about the circumstances, and is more than willing to enjoy a bit of mischief. I am a bit concerned about how flippant he seems towards the lives of others, but as long as he's against the Captain, it's fine.
ZAVEID
the cursed
[personal profile] sivard

A spirit from another world. Doesn't know what ennui is, but I'm sure he'll figure it out with enough time on this ship. His title labels him as 'The Cursed'--cursed with what, I wonder?
'ZERO'
miracle worker
[personal profile] jibunwo

I don't trust a man who doesn't show his face. He seems like a normal person--but his profile lists him as having been created a month ago, and I'm not sure what else to believe. Very direct. Not quite sure how to approach him, honestly.
CARMEN SANDIEGO
red herring
[personal profile] wheremst

A victim of this wretched game. She didn't deserve to be here. None of us do.
THE CAPTAIN
the captain
[personal profile] bathymetric

Stupid, shitty cunt. If he so much as shows his face, I'm gonna fucking tear him apart. Fuck you.
DAVY JONES
the first mate
[personal profile] thekeyofsea

Don't think ol' Jonesy would've come along this cruise on his own volition. Something must be in it for him. He seems unwilling to be forthcoming with information. I'm nothing but persistent, though, so we'll see what happens.

PLAYER

NAME: everett
CONTACT: [plurk.com profile] wolfnoir
ACTIVE TIMES/PACE: EST, evenings. usually more active on the weekends
BRACKETS/PROSE: either!
TRIGGERS: please warn for any sort of medical malpractice or institutionalization!

IN CHARACTER

PHYSICAL AFFECTION: yep!

PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: absolutely! please punch him, he deserves it.

RELATIONSHIPS: sure, but this man's not about 'commitment' or 'long-term relationships'. not to mention you'll probably end up dead sooner or later.

PSYCHIC & PSIONIC INFORMATION: you can certainly try, but constantine's spent quite a few years learning how to build up his defenses. still, you could get in one way or another.

MAGICAL INFORMATION: if i had to describe every facet of john's magic, we'd be here all day, but the good thing is that he rarely ever uses it, relying mostly on his wits and con-man skills to swindle his way to success. he knows quite a lot about occult/dark magic, and his lineage makes him able to influence his own luck in small but potent ways.

MEDICAL INFORMATION: apparently has demon blood that makes him age slower. also, immune to lung cancer because he tricked a bunch of demon lords once.

OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: constantine deals with a lot of heavy shit. his backstory also involves institutionalization, violence against minors, alcoholism, murder, abusive parenting, violence, and sexual themes. i will not bring up potentially triggering subjects in threads unless discussed beforehand.

OUT OF CHARACTER

BACKTAGGING: always!
THREADHOPPING: sure, but please ask beforehand!
FOURTHWALLING: go for it!

FIRST IMPRESSIONS

VISUAL: a blond, 5'11" white man with blue eyes. usually has awful stubble around his face and/or a five o' clock shadow. wears a beige trench coat, a dress shirt and tie, and comfortable shoes/pants. has a smug, confident aura about him. kind of skinny.
AURAL: mid-ranged, rough voice with a scouse (liverpudlian) accent
OLFACTORY: cheap whiskey and nicotine. probably hasn't showered in a few days.
DEMEANOUR: crass. rude. always wants to get in the last word. liable to con you if you're not careful. more intentional with his words than you might think.
