OOC MINGLE POST



Greetings and welcome to The Shimmer! We hope you're excited for horror and the pleasant experience of bonding with your fellow explorers! But before we head off into what definitely isn't certain doom, let's get to know each other!

Feel free to use this post to introduce yourselves as players and the wonderful characters you're bringing in for this adventure! Gush about your canons, your characters, how much everyone is going to suffer, whatever! You can leave your contact information as well, so everyone can stay up to date on what their expedition buddies are up to!

It also might be prudent to get to know your factionmates and sort out what your characters have been up to, if anything! This is not required, but it's definitely something you can do if you so choose!

Welcome to the game and have fun, the Shimmer awaits.

YO, I am Groove and I'm bringing you a cowboy. This is Flint from MOTHER 3, a fun game boy rpg for children that's definitely not full of heartbreaking moments where major characters die and terrible things happen!! Flint is one of the player characters and is the father of Lucas, who you may be familiar with from a certain game called Smash Bros. Unlike Lucas, Flint has no cool psychic powers but he IS incredibly strong, because his chapter features him fighting a ton of really powerful enemies solo.

Once upon a time, Flint's family lived happily in an idyllic little village called Tazmily, until some weirdos called the Pigmask Army invaded, burned down the forest, and turned the local wildlife into horrible, robotized monstrosities just because they could. In the midst of all of this, Flint's wife was killed and one of his kids went missing, and he's never recovered. In fact, he spent the next three years futilely searching for his missing son while neglecting his still living one. As you can see, he's definitely a very mentally and emotionally stable person. If you've played M3, he's from around the beginning of chapter 7.

He was recruited by a third party, and has been designated with a combat-oriented role. Faction mates! Gin, Eric, Koharu, Crow and Rokurou! You guys are stuck with him! Flint is from a pre-industrial society, so he literally has no idea what computers or guns or even running water is. He made a valiant effort to learn how to shoot a gun since the powers that be felt like they could entrust him with one, but he looks way more comfortable with the steel staff they also provided him. He's uhhh.... a little standoffish, but not rude or anything. He's just very quiet and keeps to himself, but he DID learn everyone's names and roles and stuff. He really does not like to talk about himself, though. If there's anything else you want to hash out, let me know! I'm on plurk at [plurk.com profile] wefeelgroove and discord at wefeelgroove#2410!
