[au plotting post] world zero: game on!

world zero: game on!

( ALSO KNOWN AS
YER A SPORTS WIZARD, HARRY )




isle of champions.

Welcome to your arena for the next month!! Your setting is the Isle of Champions, an island where three different kingdoms acknowledge the place as unclaimed territory, saving this particular piece of land specifically for an event held once every three years: The War Games. Something like what some may know as the Olympics, the top athletes from each kingdom are invited to participate in a series of games for a number of weeks. A major difference? Magic’s allowed to run wild, and as long as you don’t intend to kill anyone, anything goes. Break a leg! Hopefully not literally.

Sports of all types are placed in The Games, taking the mundane to rather extreme levels. If you have any suggestions for games that you’d like to see, feel free to drop a comment here! Suggestions will be used for a prompt that you’ll eventually see in the mingle itself. However there are three large events that take place during The War Games.
» Relay One of two events where every athlete is expected to participate, a kingdom’s finest will join in on this competition that forces them to swim across the sea, hike mountains, and place their trust in each other in order to claim victory! This takes place during the first half of the festivities.
» Dodgeball The second event where every athlete is expected to participate - a very simple, very aggressive game of dodgeball. This ain’t like your old high school gym class! This takes place during the second half of the festivities.
» The Gala In the very middle of The War Games, there’s - you guessed it - a great old party! Let’s all have a roaring good time, shall we?

Everyone is invited to The War Games! Athletes, reporters, spectators, politicians, fans, staff, volunteers, even stylists to make sure that the athletes and their costumes look their best for their debuts!!

An AU Plotting Note: For this particular world, there are no plot-protected roles. Feel free to reach as wildly as you’d like for your AU! Whether you’re a star athlete or a politician, do whatever your heart dreams of. In the future, roles that cannot be claimed in order to preserve the plot will be denoted every workshop. :)

On that note, if you would like to sign up for a role, please go here!

three kingdoms?

That’s right! Are you ready for your faction sorting?!

First, here’s the basic information on the world:
» While factions are immediately sorted into a homeland, people are free to move around in their AUs if they’d like to belong to a different kingdom! However, wherever your character was born, they will have an affinity to that magic, and will never be quite as strong in another element as their original element. That said, they can learn how to wield other elements if they wish to.
» For Original characters who do not adapt to the world lore, they will keep their canon powers. Remixed characters will forfeit their canon powers in exchange for the world’s preset powers.
» All technology in the world is modern, though some kingdoms are more familiar with amenities than others. Great strides have been made in Virtual Reality in particular.

Saiside, Fire Burning
A land that was once at war with the Ice Kingdom Holmeshelm three decades ago, the whimsical and breezy Saiside people would now rather spend their days on their sunny, picturesque beaches. Their capitol might be positioned right by an active volcano, but it’s nothing that their fire powers aren’t able to handle! Prime Minister Ariana Grande has sought a tense peace with the Ice Kingdom rather than pursue any further aggression, and has been rewarded for it with a booming tourist population. Those belonging to Knight’s Class and Ruler’s Class were born here.

Holmeshelm, Ice Ice Baby
Ruled by the same bloodline for centuries, the Kingdom of Holmeshelm has a history of conquest and war - not that you’d guess it these days! With the health of the royal family failing, all eyes are on Prince Harry Styles and his eccentric ways. The frozen tundra that surrounds the capitol means that the inhabitants with ice powers can shape the landscape to their will, and their hard work is always rewarded with a beautiful Aurora Borealis at night. Holmeshelm manages to feel the most ancient of all the kingdoms, every inch of it telling a story of its history and pride. Those belonging to Artist’s Class and Mage’s Class were born here.

Idoll, Earth-Shattering
While they were able to technically claim their independence from Holmeshelm thirty years ago, Idoll still finds themselves printing money with Prince Harry’s face on it. The Bangtan Party presides over their Congress, but accepts the symbolic fealty to Holmeshelm in exchange for protection and economic support. The mountains that surround them mean that they’re able to use their earth powers to their fullest extent, but still need to import food supplies from elsewhere. Still, despite the slight depression and dip in their standard of living, Idoll is by far the most beautiful of the kingdoms, full of natural resources and areas of land that are untouched by man made ruin, from their deep valleys to cascading waterfalls. Those belonging to Nomad’s Class and Thief’s Class were born here.

Player Name: Pixi
Character Name: Lan Wangji
Remixed or Original: Original to keep things easy for my lil pixi brain

Remixed Occupation: To quote aki: "an ice sculptor but he only sculpts rabbits and only for Easter events"
Remixed Backstory: No backstory for now but I do want to laugh because in canon Lan Zhan's constantly compared to ice/an ice prince and his sword gives off an aura of ice and snow already so THANKS DANA'S RNG FOR THAT

Remixed Backstory:
- from saiside
- he moved to holmeshelm and lives there currently

AKIRA KURUSU | ORIGINAL

[personal profile] survivaltricks 2019-12-05 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Al
Character Name: Akira Kurusu
Remixed or Original: ORIGINAL FOR THE FIRST WORLD, but I'm 100% open to people working him into their AU backgrounds!! I think it'd be funny if someone was like OH YOU'RE X and he was like UUUUH SURE OKAY??

Remixed Occupation: Athlete/freedom fighter!! WHAT DOES THAT MEAN AL well. . .
Remixed Backstory: I'm not going to go into detail about this because he's not being Remixed for the first world BUT his AU version is definitely an Idoll born and bred native who is a FREEDOM FIGHTER trying to encourage Idoll to pull further away from Holmeshelm's support for further independence. . . he is also a popular athlete who is expected to do well in the games, and I assure you Akira will be Extremely Confused about this because what the FUCK is being popular???
Looking for: Any and anything!! Since Akira is not being AU'd he'll be EXTREMELY CONFUSED for the most part but since he's also the type to ~go with the flow~ he'll be 100% inclined to just. Smile and nod at anyone who recognizes his AU self HAHA.

HAKU | REMIX

[personal profile] amberspirit 2019-12-05 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Anna
Character Name: Haku
Remixed or Original: (missy elliot voice) REEEEMIX

Remixed Occupation: he's a student bc he looks 12 but he's also [slaps down my 50% Off au] a SWIMMER i'm funny
Remixed Backstory:
➣ he's from idoll country, but frequently goes to saiside for ocean swimming training
➣ his manger is a crusty old witch
➣ he's infamous in the surfing circuit even if he doesnt surf or intend to surf professionally
➣ he used his earth powers to make his own river relay for practice but has since given it to charity for a summer water park it was on the news once
➣ unless someone adopts him or smth he will probably just have stand-in idoll parents; maybe the crusty witch is actually his grandma
➣ rumors are saiside peeps have tried to coerce him into playing for their team

Looking for: I'm down for anything! Family, friends, school friends, friends he's begrudgingly made in Saiside and Idoll ones worried he'll hit kingdom sports team betray, rivals, teammates. Oh, also if someone wanted to be his coach, that's fine, too. Otherwise, I'm here to be as stupid as possible.
soulburns: (☼ they would carry)

Player Name: January
Character Name: Taksaka
Remixed or Original: Original

Remixed Occupation: He's a (teenage) gardener. IN THE ICE LAND, SOMEHOW, but Taksaka is actually an amazing gardener so it's fine.
Remixed Backstory: I have nothing, gomen.
Looking for: I'm up for him being included in anyone else's backstories if you so desire! He's not going to care about any of this until his competitive side is pinged, otherwise he's just a random bum who will sleep on top of frozen lakes, probably.

Remixed or Original: She's an Original! I want to have her side-eye everyone and their weird AU beliefs until it's her turn and she no longer has room to judge--

Remixed Occupation: Student/Ace Dodgeball Player
Remixed Backstory: I got nada.
Looking for: As she's an Original, I'm absolutely okay with her being a part of anyone's backstory! Let Mizuki be Your Rival! Let her be that person whose autograph you always wanted, or the one known for landing other people in the medical tent all the time, or let her be your cousin/daughter/little sister/bff. She'll think you're crazy, but. You know. It's fine.

Kano / Remix

[personal profile] suddenlybees 2019-12-05 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Card
Character Name: Shuuya Kano
Remixed or Original: Remix

Remixed Occupation: idk he's just a kid. like in canon, he never goes to school, so he's a dumb kid.
Remixed Backstory: I'll make it up as I go along... I just thought it'd be funny if he went to the Olympics specifically to sabotage other athletes because you don't need to be the best in order to win, you just need to make everybody else lose. I hope somebody hires him for that.
Looking for: ??? Kano is a loser with zero friends in canon so I'm A-OK starting him off as a blank slate CR-wise, but if anybody wants to already know him for some reason, I apologize for him but also okay
doublesmall: (5jBhwqn)

[personal profile] doublesmall 2019-12-05 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Teej
Character Name: Chuuya Nakahara
Remixed or Original: Remixed bc hi i love aus!!

Remixed Occupation: Athlete! Geared toward anything that requires speed/dexterity/flexibility moreso than pure strength.
Remixed Backstory: Originally from Holmeshelm, currently living in Saiside! Doesn't really talk about why he's there, doesn't really talk about anything else he might ever have done for a living, generally keeps where he's from low-key. Probably something happened there? Good luck getting it out of him! He still uses his ice powers sometimes, but only really busts out the cool stuff like SICK ICE RAMPS etc in private. The competition doesn't need to know everything he can do, okay, he's saving that for when he really needs it to win (and in the meantime he primarily uses fire despite being weaker in it). He used to participate in team (specifically partner) competitions more, but he had a rough split with his old partner despite how well they worked together.

Anyone who knew him as a kid, before he bailed, probably knows he's from a pretty old family with deep ties-- but it's hard to say why exactly they split. They don't talk about him and he doesn't talk about them. He used to be a pretty quiet kid who didn't get out as much.

...also he definitely did some questionable and shady things before he got steered toward putting his skills to a more athletic use, mostly along the lines of just taking advantage of tourists to keep himself afloat and generally being a shady little shit. So there's that!

Looking for: GESTURES TO ALL OF THE ABOVE, do you want to have known Chuuya when he was smaller and quieter and be like 'who is this loud asshole', do you want to have met him during the shadier part of his life, do you want to know him through SPORTS?? I'm down for anyone trying to yank him back into partnered/team competitions especially since the relay is a thing! HIT ME WITH WHATEVER
decryptic: (in the rags here to mourn)

9S | REMIX

[personal profile] decryptic 2019-12-05 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name: Boba
Character Name: 9S
Remixed or Original: Remix!

Remixed Occupation: Referee bot!
Remixed Backstory:

- 9S is a state-of-the-art, semi-experimental android referee provided by Holmeshelm in addition to human referees to ensure objective officiation for this very important event
- For the most part he does great at his job
- Except when 2B is around, at which point at least 50% of his recorded footage is just her
- They will attempt to fix that software bug between events but it won't work for very long. The technicians are stumped
- When he isn't working, he's given free range to do as he will because I guess Holmeshelm is all about advanced AI ethics
- Is very active on social media, partly for PR purposes but mostly because he's just social... if anyone's tweeted about the Games then there's a fair chance he's commented on it with fun stats, facts, and advice
- idk he just likes humans and wants to chat with all of them

Looking for:

- Social media pals
- If there are any athletes who want to make use of his robot brain then I'm down
- Anyone whose (fairly recent) games he might have officiated? Maybe they chatted it up
- Friends... in general...
- ANYTHING REALLY

[personal profile] decryptic 2019-12-05 05:00 am (UTC)(link)
hey... does galo use social media and if so then does he want a sports android friend... 9S is a referee bot with too much internet access

alternatively maybe 9S has officiated at a game or two that galo's been at??

franch dressing... would you be interested in having had takaomi write an article on robot/android refereeing... because that is what 9S does!! or maybe he could be working on an article currently, idk
