Got plans? Got backstory ideas for how your AU character got where they are? Got other stuff you want to share? Fill us in!

Hyacinthe is going to be a blind seer, wandering around offering prophecies and whatnot to people who talk to him--at least, when he can get away from his keeper, Raven. Since he's technically on Team Evil, he won't give away their plans, but if you're interested in having your character's past (or future) told, he's here for that.

The world broke and took her away from her sister forever, and so Yang Xiao Long is going to burn. it. all.

Taiyang's 'sunny little dragon' isn't quite so sunny anymore, but she's more than happy to use her inner fire to turn everything to ash. What happens when a Huntress goes bad? She goes Team Evil with a vengeance. In her mind, the world needs to be cleansed, and that's the only way to save everyone from themselves, and from the type of pain that she feels.

It was bad enough that Zack's own home turned against him, the company hunting him down and trying to do so much worse than exterminate him. Then he found his way back to the island, thinking he was safe from his loved ones turning into monsters, and found... well...

Zack is alone. Zack is tired. Zack has seen enough hurt everywhere he goes and would like very much for the rest of the world to have a break, too. And if Ino had made it, maybe it would be different. But some heroes can't hold on forever. Especially not on their own.

So, the thing about Gems is that they live forever.

And the thing about living forever and being immune to the mind-wiping effects of the plague is that a Gem caught in the middle of it would watch the organic beings in her life slowly degrade and lose themselves. Or would watch them die fast, and sudden, and be gone.

And seeing a world brought to ash after all that was too much for Peridot. Her reasons for being in on this with Team End-Of-The-World are purely selfish, but if everything ends before she ever really learns to care...

... Well. Maybe forever would be less unbearable if she didn't know what she was missing before she was broken.

Still a giant magma-monster. Still getting bigger and more boss-like every day. Still completely in his right mind. Jono hasn't had the best time of it since the hollowing started, but he's hanging in there, even if he's got a sort of backup file of Hannibal's mind travelling along in his head for the ride these days.

And he has no intention of letting anybody end the bloody world after all of that, thank you. Maybe he's just more stubborn than the rest of you lot, but he's not letting all that effort go to waste just because of one obliterated world. Quitters.

Hannibal honestly couldn't care less about the world, and isn't really bothering to hide it these days - it'd waste too much brain power. He's spending all of his on keeping himself as together as possible.

He's forgetting things, and occasionally absent-minded, but otherwise is still the ~~wonderful, loveable~~ ~~cannibal~~ survivor he's always been. And since Jono is keeping a backup of him, if Jono wants to save the world, he'll go along with it.

FH!Kathy has no idea what's going on here. Sorry, guys, she was dead this time last year, somebody wanna catch a girl up?

AU!Kathy was already having memory problems last year. This year, they're a lot worse. She's got one foot in hollowed and one foot on a banana peel, as the (modified) saying goes. She remembers bits of the last year, including the other Fandom, and the last day or so okay, but other than that...

She's absolutely here to help save...huh? What was it again? What are they doing? Hi, she's Kathy! Nice to meet you!

This is where I'm going to be completely honest and admit that I am so, so, so, soooo out of my element here because, yeah. Also, it's the holiday seasons so my brain will likely be very dead from work so I don't even know how much I'll be able to spare for a plot that I feel a little lost in the woods for. Any hand-holding or guidance is one-hundred percent welcome My kids are totally blank slates and I'm going in blind and willing to be used for whatever or set completely adrift or whatever else happens.

I have no frame of reference here. I'm like a child who wanders into the middle of a movie.

Hit me up on the e-mails and we can noodle a thing! Or I'll at least fill you in on how last year's BDE went down. :) It's not as big and overwhelming as it looks at a glance, but I imagine it's a lot to catch up on if you weren't there.

Ditto. Also I'm totes up for SP/preplay small posts, if that makes things easier on you.

You know....now that I actually understand the BDE more and I'm starting to consider what I could potentially do....and with what you've got going on with Yang, I think we could do something really interesting with her and Sidon, who already lost his sister the last time his world broke, and now that it's gone and broken again...

...I'm still in Figuring Out Mode but I might hit you up along this thread.

Hit me up here or in email/twitter/gchat and we'll figure out how to take a good solid poke at your poor boy's Feelings.

Also volunteering to be of assistance! Hit me up with emails and we can chat and brainstorm if you like!

I'm not yet sure how much I'll be able to participate, but FH!Breq will try to defend the island and rescue people. If anyone is interested in dealing with her, I'm also up for preplay.

Both Peters are dyed-in-the-wool Hero Types, and they've been to Hell and back, and they'll be damned (again) if they let this world go there.

They also have no problems working together or with other people, even if FH!Peter is a little weirded out by AU!Peter's being human.

So if anyone wants help from one or more mages...
