PLAYER INFO.
NAME: Alison
CONTACT:

medieval and PMs! I also have AIM if that floats people's boats, but I'll give that out on a case by case scenario. PMs are best because I do a lot of tagging while out of the house, and also plurk likes to dive into the deep abyss of the ocean without a dive suit a lot.
TAGGING HABITS: I live in PST, and I tag throughout the work day most of the time. I try to clear my inbox once a day, if not more. I can boomerang when my inbox is down, depending, but I am definitely cool with any speed in return!
INTERESTS: Cats, baseball, comic books (mostly Marvel), Final Fantasy XIII, Kingdom Hearts, etc. I'm currently dabbling in The 100 and rewatching it in part because I realized that the only TV show I watch anymore is New Girl. (If you like New Girl, yay.) OH, and I love The Raven Cycle, too.

CHARACTER INFO.
NAME: Harry Potter
CANON: Potter Potter
PERSONALITY: Harry is a stubborn hero type who's best trait is his capacity to love and his desire to preserve life. These things sugarcoat the fact that he can be sarcastic, a bit of a stubborn ass, and rather self-righteous when he has determined that he has the right idea about things. He's clever and he has a knack to go barreling toward trouble, even if he might insist that he needs a break from all of that. Never listen to what Harry says when he says things like this. He's probably lying. He has some darker tendencies and the capacity to cause some harm, especially when someone lights the wick for his rather short temper. But all in all, he wants to do good, and he can be kind of irritating about it.

Oh, he's also inquisitive and asks a lot of questions, which gets him into trouble. Once he gets an idea in his head, it's very, very hard to get him to let go. And by hard, I mean impossible. Sorry, everyone.
DESIRED CR: My favorite things to play out with Harry are just him getting to know people, so there is a degree of "everything," especially since this is the first CR meme. But I like people who challenge him, and people that he can be a little judgmental toward. He balances out that judgment a bit these days. The other thing I'd like is people who are up for working with Harry, especially in helping him focus. He's been working with Ron and Hermione for so long that it'll be hard for him to branch out without them, and there will be a lot of "if Hermione was here, she'd know exactly what to do for this specific scenario." People that Harry can rely on will be great, and also challenge him to find things without wishing Hermione or Ron were there to help.
OFFERED CR: Harry is a motivator. He's headstrong, and he's committed to the idea of helping people. But he can also be stubborn and unruly, so dealing with both sides of that coin might be interesting! He's willing to work with others and help push them in the right direction, and he's a little more balanced, especially after learning that Snape hadn't been so bad after all. That's going to make him less likely to be Uncertain about shady types. If anyone wants someone who meets the above traits and also can go headfirst into trouble, he's your guy.
PLANS: Harry is going to be SUPER DETERMINED TO HELP, but I have every intention of challenging his world view along the way because while he can be pushed all the way to torturing people, he can't go that extra step (and in Harry Potter, it's really bad for someone to do that anyway). My biggest plans are to really force him to realize that Doing Good comes with a price in ways that his canon hasn't always touched on. It'll be good for him, though, as he's going to go on and become an Auror. Hard lessons.
ANYTHING ELSE? I thought of something: I am totally cool with people recognizing Harry Potter as That Harry Potter. He's used to it. But please none of the "you're so fake you're faker than fake" stuff!

I just choked on something reading your keywords, Alison.

I thought you should know.

I saved a bunch of screencaps for a whole new iconset, but decided against it solely based on losing my keywords in the process.

I am glad they appealed, friend.

I can volunteer someone for teamwork and focus! Riza's pretty used to working in a tight-knit unit back home and while she'll be fine on her own she'd definitely appreciate having others to rely on. She's definitely not as smart as Hermoine but she's good at keeping people on their toes.

Also if he ever needs to have Serious Talks with someone about having to do shitty things in the name of good, she's probably a good candidate for that too.

That sounds exciting—for both! A different kind of smart is probably good for him to have around, too, honestly. I love threads about morality, so I will be looking forward to it. The first event involving goblins is going to make him grumpy, but I think that should be a decent lead-in.

If he needs a morally grey character to be around and possibly judge, Ushahin's good for that! He's definitely one of those complicated "doing wrong things for the right reasons" types of character.

I love those types a lot! I am definitely up for this.

Eeexcellent. /rubs hands together. Ushahin's psychic and uses that power quite terribly, so I imagine that will come up in due time. Better start practicing Occlumency again, Harry.

2nding your brill keywords, lmao.

I liked playing with Harry on TDM, with both of the characters I was throwing around! Graham is the one that ended up getting apped and I think that them both having come from a magical world does seem to give them something to connect over!

I am gonna add you on plurk I think, since we have two games together (Eudio and this one!)

haha, thank you!! THEY ARE SEVERAL YEARS OLD AND TRANSFERRED OVER FROM LJ I am glad they still work

we are actually in Each together, too, haha. ALL OVER THE PLACE TOGETHER I GUESS but yes, I really enjoyed both of our threads! I'd very much like to carry over the CR and stuff, of course.

Haha I just noticed that, looking at your plurks! so many games now, wow.

I think I'm gonna start over with him when the game starts if you don't mind, but yes, he shall pester Harry, most certainly!

Hey, there! I would love CR with Harry. Alice is equally stubborn, so they may butt heads down the line, but I'd definitely would love to throw Alice his way.

Yes, definitely! They both dig their heels in different ways, but they've also had pretty rough lives, so!

Yeah, Alice can relate to being boarded up and being stunted in growth as a result. Then I look forward to throwing her at him!

Chosen ones? I've never tagged Korra with any HP characters, but am very familiar with the canon. Korra on the other hand has never seen magic before.

Chosen ones indeed! I am also very familiar with Korra's canon (I played her girlfriend for a while, haha), so I can see how these two could get on well ... but also possibly butt heads, if only because they're stubborn and tend to take very similar paths to dealing with things. That said, they've also both gone on very similar philosophical journeys, and though Harry is sometimes crap at opening up, I'd love to see if we could play with that a bit in time.

So, yes, after that long paragraph, I am obviously interested.

~~ASAMI YOU SAY~~

You're making me want to read the novels or listen to the audiobooks again. I'm seriously looking forward to this now!

Morally charged CR? I'll offer Ban for that.

Harry is super annoying for that kind of thing. Exciting.

...............oh my God, has I but known this was your Harry, I would have polished my Tom app to the point of infinity. Hnnnnngh, so happy to get to play with him again with him, either way.

RUXI HI

I really loved our CR in the TDM; maybe we can have something similar in game! :3 Harry is adorable & I love the way you play him!
