Lugia's Limitations

[Kateri Rivera]

PLAYER WANTS

What is your plotting philosophy?
Flexibility. I am willing to plan things out in advance, go with the flow of what's already happening, enjoy the moment, change directions suddenly, whatever. My goal is to have a good time. Generally I tend to have tentative plots after an initial threading and whatever impressions I got out of the interactions. But I'm willing to go along with whatever you have.

What types of plots are you interested in playing?
Romance, friendship, family, coworkers, antagonistic. Aggressive and face-paced is fun too. I like writing scary things, but my general inclination is to fluff.

What types of plots are you not interested in playing?
Rape, abuse, self-harm. Just not my style.

How often can you reply to any given thread?
On breaks, typically about once a week. But I am slow. Very slow. And I also have a lot on my plate, so I try for at least once a month during the normal stages.

What is the longest you're willing to wait for a reply to a thread?
Ages. I think the longest I've waited was 3 months.

Are you open to RPing over instant messengers? If so, what's the best way to contact you and what times are you generally available?
Yes. Lugonzbi on AIM is my best. I'm also good with email at [e-mail]. Ping me first on Chatango so I know you're looking for me and I'll make sure to log on. It's hard for me to be consistent because my schedule changes, but typically nights from 6-11 are solid (Pacific time).

Are you open to post volleying?
I love volleying. Short posts, let me know in advance.

Anything else?
I'm very friendly and flexible and I rarely say no to things. However, I'm not fast. Just bear this in mind.

PLAYER LIMITS

What are you limits regarding powerplay/godmoding?
Typically, I don't care if your character picks up mine, lands a punch, shoves him into something, etc. My sole exception for this is Josef Muller, because Josef has two blackbelts and is a master in two different forms of martial arts, and I get really, really irritated when people assume they can just land something on him without a problem. He has been doing this since he was four. If you want to land a hit, just let me know. I don't think he's invincible, I'm just tired of people thinking their character is automatically better. Let's make this a fair fight.

What are your limits in regards to romantic situations?
I'm very flexible about this. I tend to prefer for romantic relationships to kind of occur spontaneously, and then we can talk about it. So thread first, then possible plots. I don't mind love triangles, although my character hates me for them. I'm also totally okay with IC rejection and one-sided romances. They are my favorite. Not everything has to be perfect, but I would like for there not to be too much angst. I like if they both have difficulties to get through. But if they're constantly cheating on each other and/or fighting, I am out.

What are your limits in regards to sex (within the TOS)?
I'll follow TOS rules. We can flirt and suggest, but once it comes to below-the-belt, we can fade to black. I tend to be more interested in what happens after, to be honest.

What are your limits in regards to violent scenes (within the TOS)?
I will play it out. Not a huge fan of blood and guts, but I'm even decently good at it. But I am not going to do rape scenes. Nope.

What are your limits in regards to abuse/rape in plots?
Imply it if it must be done. But none of my characters will be doing it and few will have it tolerate it if it is done.

Anything else?
I promise I'm not scary!
