Sorry, Fvaar, forgot about Rmwtyliin :/

That's ok.
Carly, look on the last page.

[Swith Witherward]

Gio... don't post Giovenith and Klaus actually jumping the dimension yet. There's other stuff in the works.

[Northwest Slobovia]

My reply for Sandy is going to be delayed. Sorry about that.

PERSONIFICATION LIFE
CHARACTER APPLICATION

---

PERSONAL CHARACTERISTICS
Character Name: Charumati (Nope, not the one you're thinking of.)

Character Gender: female

Species: avatar

Age: unknown

Appearance:

URL to Character Picture, if any: Charumati

Primary Objective: Come to terms with needing to "start over". Her original quest has not been fulfilled: what does it mean to be human? What are the masks we wear? Who was the true monster... Hyde or Jekyll?

Secondary Objectives: Now forced back into the place she thought she'd escaped, Charu must reestablish herself while coming to terms with the historical traces left by her other self. She'll seek out people to suit her needs, of course.

MUNDANE SKILLS
List Mundane skills here:
Polyglot due to followership purposes(approved by OP)
Knits
Cooks
Drives a car
Avid amateur historian (having lived through most of it)

SPECIALIZED SKILLS AND TALENTS
Manage a high-end restaurant and bar: 3
Research: 4



OPTIONAL SUPERNATURAL CHARACTERISTICS
A note regarding this old character: Charumati seldom used her powers for anything other than traveling, or completing small tasks in daily life when on a tight schedule. At times she might use her powers for comic value. Bear in mind, she always was and still has Eldritch physiology.

Not all powers are listed, per OP instruction. Levels are not listed, per OP instruction. I'm dropping this app in, per OP instruction. I think the OP has gone 'round the twist.

Ability 1: Containment sphere
Power Level: CoOP Tool
Strengths: A pocket dimension contained within a sphere. Dimension properties depending upon creator's whim.
Weaknesses:
Restrictions: OP imposed via discussion.

Ability 2: Teleportation
Power Level:
Strengths: She can teleport. Woo.
Weaknesses: She, like all the other gods and powerful beings (sans Gio) can NOT teleport out of Demens' dimension, nor into it. She has to use a Gate. Too bad for her.
Restrictions: As above.

Ability 3: Summon Zalgo
Power Level:
Strengths: Summon Zalgo, people!
Weaknesses: Can't summon Zalgo outside of Zalgo summoning season? I dunno. It's not really a power. More like shtick.
Restrictions: Only used for Zalgofests per OP whim. Can't summon him at any other time.


MAGICAL OR SPECIAL ITEMS
List:
A few books
A jar with spare matrix in it
Her old "lab/lair" in the Chaos quarters
Those tanks with clones in them (already in setting)
A bunch of annoying lizards (already in setting)


BACKGROUND
Character Background/Biography: Once upon the time, there was an avatar. That avatar went on a trip and landed outside the cosmic cup. What she discovered there is her own knowledge to keep. And keep it, she does. You see, she returned to the cosmos and attempted to share what she had discovered... and that lead to an entire war within her pantheon. Everyone trying to kill everyone else. Messy business. So she fled. But I'm getting ahead of myself.

Charu hasn't always been in the present day or age. Again, this goes back in history. Predates humanity, in fact. After her initial formation, she settled with her three brothers in an area that is now part of India (ergo they are called the India Set). There they existed for the longest time, in one form or another, before being drawn into humanity's nonsense by one of Vishnu's avatars. And thus the siblings finally took human form, and all sorts of skullfuckery broke out.

The ages passed, and Charu and Ogoti become very close, much to the disdain of their brother, Atosh. He conspired to drive them apart, only managing to piss off everyone in the process. His trifling become so overwhelming that even Chanpreet (the avatar of the God of Conspiracy) couldn't stomach it anymore. But it wasn't until Atosh managed to grievously wound Charumati that all hell broke loose. Ogoti, normally so grandfatherly and patient, released a plague upon the land to punish all those who called Atosh their god. The three turned upon their brother with a vengeance that might have destroyed the earth were it not for the sudden arrival of something entirely unexpected... the Germanic Set.

We won't get into all this backstory. The damn RP lasted eight years before ever touching upon PL's shores. Needless to say, shit went down, the Sets became horribly manged and mingled, and the end result was banishment for the lot of them. And now we go back to the beginning when Charu accidentally landed outside the cosmic cup. It was at that point that she discovered what was happening, and avowed to lend her hand. As a chaotic being, That From Which She Comes took it upon itself to assist beings such as Pearlelei in their quest to repair was was being undone.

As for Charumati? She was minding her own tasks when summoned (quite by accident) to the dimension by a young, lost conscript named Bran. His accidental feat thrust her into the midst of some idiotic characters, though there were also plenty of fantastic ones. She quickly befriended the velociraptor, NVE, and Bones and his Brothers. They asked her what her name was. She replied with where she had last been, and then told them to call her whatever they pleased. So "Swith" stuck. And the story continued without much purpose until such time as Atosh tracked her silly ass down. Then she died.

Literally.

The Residents launched a quest to restore her, and they succeeded. But what they brought back was a shadow of its former self. And that self does not concern THIS Charumati. You see, THIS Charumati is what you get when That From Which You've Been Spawned suddenly notices that you've gone missing. And THAT Charumati has gone missing. The remnants of the avatar formerly known as Sutra were put to good use in reforming the fully fleshed Charu... luckily Naomi was trapped in Demens' dimension. This current Charumati has no recollection of anything that transpired after her death (meaning, for those of you old enough to remember it, she does not recall anyone going into the Void to piece her back together).

She might have drifted along with old friends aimlessly enough to suit her needs, were it not for Demens himself. Oh, he wasn't done with Miss Charumati. Not at all done. And so she found herself exactly where she did NOT want to be... among the Residents once more.

I'll post when I get up tomorrow. Just watch my big monthly show and wore myself out with screaming and cheering.

[Relikai]

Milk's at the Pub.

[Ganonsyoni]

Got a post up. Kale will be out for a while. ICly, prolly a few hours or a full rest. She is quite drained from everything. Don't know how that translates to real time. But feel free to move your characters on.

[Primordial Luxa]

Gio and Prim... I didn't see any pony posts, other than Prim's following mine. Did I miss something? If so, link me! I'll respond.

No, I don't think their are any other pony posts in our group.

[Giovenith]

It's on me, I've been busy, but it's mostly done and will be up today.

[Swith Witherward]

No rush. I've got my hands full with stuff... so behind on everything! The more time you take, the more progress I make elsewhere. (Hey, that's close to a rhyme!) I've almost... ALMOST!... caught up enough to write my 'Dancer post for Min.

[Fvaarniimar]

About how distant are the pub and the clinic? I want to know if Nick is within the radius.

EDIT: If so, I'll edit him in.

Also, just caught up - YES! Go Clover!! Kudos, Gio. I'm in awe.

[Monfrox]

...holy shit

[Giovenith]

...holy shit

[Monfrox]

...holy shit

Go write a book, please...eventually...I need to work on writing my book too, also eventually.

Man, I'm gonna take a day to process this and hope that I can come up with something good. Brit's finding out that she's starting to have a lot more in common with a certain space engineer than she originally thought.

[Swith Witherward]

Gio, you're more awesome than kittens with real light sabers riding dolphins along a rainbow tsunami to bring Godiva chocolate to starving orphans. You're that good.

And truly nowhere on NationStates except PL can the line "So, masquerading ape-monster... you have attraction for a lizard-person and a Chaotic husk?" describe a third of the IC cast in some degree.

I go on a quest to see if "Moolisa" is a canon character and this comes up in the search: https://mackquigley.wordpress.com/2014/07/26/11616/

I can't even recall who the hell Alex Jones and Bill Hicks are/were, but I wasted an hour on this.

I think someone needs to lay down. And maybe get the fuzzies out of her brain.

Heya, guys.

Yeah. I've been gone a while. I suppose you all deserve an explanation of sorts, because I feel really bad. I don't know how to explain it really, but I have to say that I kinda had some existential thing. I'm approaching High School graduation, and my life got pretty stressful, but I've also been hanging out with friends more, working out, and having fun outside of the internet. But I suppose I got caught up in the moment, and ended up forgetting about all you guys.

But I'm gonna' jump back in now, if that's fine with everyone? Are my characters in good hands?

Welcome back.

All of your characters evacuated the Building before it blew up. They're all in the village now... wherever you wish to place them. Some peeps are at the clinic. Others are at the pub.

I've been running Yuna. We met up with Willow and Rache after battling with zombie ponies. Rache thrust Yuna into conversation with Pansy. You can search for Yuna's name to get an idea of what's going on.

I'm not posting for Gio's story tonight. Lots for me to respond to, and I have to get up early. Sadly, I'm behind on my RPs still.

And how's life been for you?
