Dual Persona OOC Plotting Post

So, Dual Personas!  That sure is a thing.  I thought it might be nice to toss up a quick plotting post over here so that everyone can plot and work these out with their CR in one convenient place instead of having to track everyone down individually on Plurk or AIM or whatever.  So let's do it like this:

1) Everyone leave a blank comment with your character's name in the subject line
2) Your CR will tag you
3) Talk about designing a Dual Persona together
4) ???
5) PROFIT

100% victory
OK to be serious now yours is from the Cthulhu Mythos, right? Something came to mind earlier - it's fine if you don't like it - but there's a short story called Weeds by Stephen King that's based off of the Mythos story called The Colour Out of Space. Basically a weird meteorite lands and turns everything into a plant, including the protagonist. This seems pretty fitting for Viridi. I'm open to any other thoughts, too!

Yes, he's kind of inspired by the Cthulu Mythos, but he's an original character himself BUT THAT IS NOT THE POINT. I really like that idea, because it ties in both well to their respective traits! /o/

So their Dual persona is going to be an abomination of a plant person I AM UP FOR THIS, MUCH APPROVAL

I was actually thinking the weird contagion that turns things into plants aha even if it's a little abstract aha.

OK now there's this monstrosity to peruse. Anything stand out to you? For me, I'm looking at Five of Swords and Four of Cups.
primordial: (are we just silent stones)

OHHHHH I SEE but no no I am still very much in approval, it was just a misunderstanding on my part.

Oh wow, both of those are pretty fitting, though I am leaning more toward the Five of Swords because it has Viridi's wanton like for destroying things suggested in it with the whole "Discord" part of it.

Works for me!
Oh, by the way, Viridi is still at Level 1! Has Sam reached 2 yet? If not, they're at a Level 1 Dual.

I think Viridi will be contributing Dual Shadow or Diarama depending on what you have in mind for Sam's.

No, he's still a lowly Level 1 because he hates fighting, so Level 1 Dual works for me.

I can contribute Cell Breaker or Evil Touch from Sam's Persona, so really, it all depends on what you think works best.

Let's go with... Dual Shadow and Cell Breaker! What do you think?

I think Viridi's contributed unique skill will be:
Roll Over! (Inflicts a medium amount of Earth damage with a 10% chance of Ani on one enemy).

By the way, Viridi's Unlucky is Tower, so she won't be able to use Sam's unique skill.
primordial: (and how i walk and wander)

[personal profile] primordial 2013-01-18 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
Awesome! Sounds good.

And awww, but I like her skill better than anything I could come up with (I am so uncreative for creating unique skills, sob), so we can definitely roll with that.
