Welcome to the first CR Meme of the game. It's time to touch base with where players are at with their characters in game and look towards the future! While not a requirement, CR Memes are helpful in forging connections with others, along with general housekeeping for what characters are up to in during their time in game.
Below is a helpful form to use in laying out your thoughts!
Player Name: Cheryl. Player Contact:heolstor / _heolstor @ discord OOC Limits: Character death + Kieren getting maimed, as he cannot heal.
Character Name: Kieren Walker. Canon: In The Flesh. Residence: He's taken up residence alone in one of the Milton homes (for your safety). Notable CR: I'm getting him out there to interact with a few people. He's relatively friendly thus far with Eddie Munson (fellow outcast teen) and Cornelius Hickey (telling him all about the future!!). He is exasperated (and lowkey terrified) of Holland March (he's onto Kieren....) and he's also being fretted over by Edward Little. Skills: Kieren is perceptive, and empathetic. In terms of physical skills he's pretty artistic (enough to get into Art School before his Untimely Demise) and there's also the fact he is very, very undead — which he's trying to hide from people.
Wanted CR: Anything and everything. Friends would be great. Kieren's a sarcastic little shit when he wants to be and is still just a teen, but also just having people to hang with. Anyone who's Not Quite Human would be dope. People to maybe teach him some survival skills? I'd love to build up some good CR with folks before it (inevitably) comes out that Kieren is in fact the undead. In that same breath, people who would actively freak out/be wary of Kieren when the truth comes out and building on that would be A++ Unwanted CR: I prefer not to have negative CR for the sake of it. I'm not actively looking for romance. Kieren's not really in the right head-space for it, considering he's not long after losing the love of his life.
Day to Day: Desperately trying to blend in and not be noticed. He's around Milton doing a lot of menial work like firewood gathering and the like, the cold doesn't bother him all that much due to his inability to feel, although he's noticing he does need to take care of himself to make sure he doesn't end up with frostbite. Good thing he wraps up a lot, anyways. He's happy to play skivvy for people, too.
The Story So Far / Plans: Kieren's been keeping to himself and just trying to look as normal as possible for a boy who doesn't eat or drink or feel. As time has gone by, and he's not returned to his rabid state without medication, he's just incredibly on edge and nervous all the damn time. He's convinced he's a ticking time bomb ready to go full zombie on everyone at Any Given Moment.
That being said he's trying his best to be friendly and interact with people. While he's already confessed to Edward Little that he has a condition that makes him dangerous without medication, he's not explicitly told anyone he's a zombie. It's definitely I'd like to explore with him soon, as Kieren does have Limited cover-up mousse and contacts to help him blend in more. He's not going to be able to hide forever. He's definitely already rationing himself with the mousse, meaning he'll be appearing paler than usual by not using so many layers, and will be covering himself up with clothing as much a possible. He's also hoping that when his hand is inevitably forced, he's not going to have people shoot him on sight...
Lately, Kieren's mostly been affected by The Voice, from the It Speaks prompt. He's not verging into actively suicidal territory, but it's seriously fucking with his head. :')
Anything Else?:
Character Name: Kate Marsh. Canon: Life Is Strange. Residence: Kate remains living in the Community Hall. I don't know if she'll ever move out or not, but that's where she's staying for the foreseeable future. Notable CR: Again, I'm just getting her out there. She's relatively friendly with Edward Little (aka nannied by him, the favourite duckling kfhsdhkjf) and Harry Goodsir (a fellow cinnamon roll), and has some interestingly complicated relationships with Rei Ayanami (fellow teen and kind of odd but that's okay) and Thomas Richardson (Serious Religion Talks but also ???? friendship???) thus far. Skills: She has some degree of animal care, granted she owns a rabbit in canon. She's both artistic and academically inclined (3.9 GPA, babyyy) and also has musical skill as a violinist (which she has in game with her!)
Wanted CR: Pretty much everything! Friends!!! People around her own age to befriend!!! Mentors/people to help her with this absolute hell of a world with survival skills — she's not worldly at all. People to keep an eye on her/look out for her since she's literally just a teenager and is Really Not Coping. Fellow religious folks or folks who fell out of their faiths for some Interesting Talks, since she's currently riding through a crisis of faith, currently. Unwanted CR: I prefer not to have negative CR for the sake of it. Again, not actively looking for romance and in truth it'd be a super slow burn thing for Kate due to her own values concerning romantic relationships.
Day to Day: Curled up on her cot with depression spirals, for the most part. She pretty much stays within the Community Hall, although she might on occasion be sitting up and just quietly passing the time reading or perhaps trying to play violin. She will likely also try to help out with food/cooking/cleaning in the Hall when she feels up to it. And recently, she's starting to go out and attempt foraging/examining the local flora. She's acquiring rosehips, which she's going to be looking into turning into teas/rosehip syrup (gotta get that vitamin c.....). She also spends a lot of time in Milton Church, given her currently precarious relationship with her faith as of late.
The Story So Far / Plans: Honestly, she's not been up to much, generally. She's come into the game both severely depressed and actively suicidal, so she's not really doing all that great.
In terms of the event, she's been very rudely horrified by the 'ghosts' and the violent ends most of the townsfolk of Milton met. She's incredibly sheltered, so it's A Lot on her tbh. She's talking Thomas out of letting the earth literally reclaim him, because sometimes you have to watch a grown ass man try to eat dirt. She's also being talked down out of a suicide attempt by Edward Little, after the Voice got too much for her — which didn't take much considering her current mental state.
She's going to be a little raw/fragile for a while after it, but Edward's efforts to save her is definitely going to have raised her spirits up — even if she's still very sad and scared in this place. But she'll certainly be a bit more active in trying to do a little more in terms of helping with survival!
I would also, one day.... like for her to raise Ptarmigans for food.... She couldn't possibly do it with rabbits, it would be too much for her, but... Ptarmigans!!!!
