OOC INTRO
Characters will be waking up in the murky, nasty waters of the mall on June 30th, at 6:00PM PST, which is when our very first Intro Log will go up. For now, this is your OOC Intro Post, so feel free to post with code below and meet and greet your fellow players!
P.S.: As a note, on the intro log, Characters’ inventories will be scattered throughout the mall and NOT on their person when they actually arrive in the water. Because of that, feel free to use this post to plot out if you’d like other characters to come across your belongings first!

character: Historia Reiss
canon: Attack on Titan
about them: Meet Historia Reiss: formerly the Queen of the Walls, now the Queen of the Mall. She’s 92 and a half pounds of self-hatred, melancholy, and teenage existential angst—for which she has her family to thank! Neither her father (a nobleman) nor her mother (his mistress) wanted much to do with her; their disinterest gave her the impression there wasn’t much point to her living and that maybe she would’ve been better off dead.
To give her life some sort of purpose, compensate for the attention she missed out on as a child, and just generally Cope™, she spent the better part of five years pretending to be somebody else entirely. As Krista Lenz, she endeared herself to everyone with sugar-sweet smiles and her self-sacrificing kindness, which earned her the title of the “Goddess” of the 104th Training Corps. She’s since done away with the Good Girl façade, but she’s still learning to come into her own while also being queen, fending off naked, man-eating giants… and now, uh, this.
The circumstances of her birth have been a huge point of contention for basically her entire life, so Historia’ll make fast friends with anyone who also finds themselves burdened by their name and blood. Failing that, technology where she’s from isn’t too far-removed the stuff you’d find pre-Industrial era Europe(? please don’t ask me im know nothing), so if you can teach her what the fuck a “photo” is and why you’d need a booth for it, I’m sure she’d appreciate that, too.
etc: Are you looking to make off with somebody else’s stuff? Cool! Scattered around the mall are a harness, two oversized box-cutter blades, gas canisters, and a weird wire chamber-thing—all bits and pieces that make up a set of vertical maneuvering equipment. Less useful (but nevertheless up for grabs) is Historia’s military uniform, which is so small it’d pass for a kids’ Halloween costume, and a crown that looks a little something like this. If you’re hoping to keep any of it, the former two won’t fit anyone taller than 4’9”. Sorry! The latter, though not of any extra special significance to Historia, will likely draw Somebody Else’s attention should you choose to keep it, though, so, uh… steal it at your own peril, I guess.
For any characters sensitive to the supernatural, etc., it’s worth noting that while Historia is still technically human, there’s a chance she might register a bit weirdly on account of her ancestry; being a descendent of the first person to harness the power of Titan Shifting allows her to, under the right conditions (that won’t be met in Collected), turn into a Titan, too. How you want to interpret that is up to you!
