khsdjah Hello there, Singularity! I'm Jae, and I play the movie-version of Captain Steve Grant Rogers, aka Captain America. I'm incredibly excited to be playing with you all, and I hope you'll be patient with my inevitable fail as I figure out my way around everything!!

Accompanying me on this grand adventure are

¶ HALLIE, playing Clint Barton aka Hawkeye, the company's resident SMALL MAN
Can be a very funny or very tiresome Tour COMPANION, depending on how this kind of thing grabs you. Since the Rules allow him to make JOKES, he will excuse uncouth behavior in a variety of comical ways. Physically he may be stunted or not at all handsome, although he usually dresses flamboyantly. If you can avoid smacking him, you will come to tolerate if not love him. He will contrive, in some way, to play a major part in SAVING THE WORLD.
¶ MIR playing Tony Stark aka I-am-Soulbonder-Man, the UNPLEASANT STRANGER
A Tour COMPANION whom no one likes or trusts. Usually the Stranger is male and neither young nor old. He can be either sly and ingratiating or gruff and taciturn, and sets everyone's back up and teeth on edge. His hair will be dark. In some cases he is a dispossessed or long-lost KING, embittered by his past, in which case you will have misjudged him. A fairly sure rule of thumb is to look at the Stranger's hair. If it is greasy, he has to be a SPY. If it is simply "unkempt" or "greying," or both, he is on the side of GOOD.
¶ SAMMO, playing Bruce "I'm sorry I'm so sorry" Banner aka the Hulk, our WOODSMAN
WOODSMEN live in the WOODS, and can be either Human or Other. They seldom join the Tour, but are often met in the course of it. Frequently they are hostile and suspicious to begin with. You may have to work hard to get them on the side of the Tour. Mostly they simply want to go on living privately.... Tourists are advised to be very polite to Woodsmen, however extraordinary they might look.
¶ AMMAY playing Thor aka........ Thor. The LONG-LOST KING
These are Kings who have been hidden or mislaid, generally soon after birth. They are normally rather young and will be using the Tour to acquire both experience as rulers and various items of Royal regalia (SWORD, SCEPTER, RING, CUP, et cetera) which have been lost at least as long as they have. There is obviously a bit of overlap between long-lost Kings and MISSING HEIRS, but you can generally tell the difference when you see one: a Missing Heir is almost inhumanly naive.


....Which I suppose makes Steve the resident VIRGIN
In much demand, for various reasons. For SACRIFICE on an ALTAR to a bad GOD. The virgin must be young, good-looking, and wearing white.... Occasionally used for tempting UNICORNS. The mode of attraction whereby a Unicorn is brought to lay its head in the lap of a young girl is probably no longer effective.

IT'S A PLEASURE TO BE HERE. OH GOD PLEASE DON'T KILL US.

..........................Oh my god, Jae, really? Really.

[usavatar]

Really, my darling. Really-really.

[usavatar]

YOU CAN'T TELL ME IT'S NOT ACCURATE.

[thundering]

It took her forever to do because she kept getting sidetracked by the book. You just had the luxury of being passed out for it.

[hulk]

Also yes, hello various people, I am the Sammo, I speak for the Jae - mostly because that squatter won't get the hell out of my brain. She ignores the eviction notices and instead burns them to toast her sugar-free s'mores. It's a problem.

Seconding the whole happy to be here thing what with the joy and the excitement and the... Yeah. Words no go shiny fast hurr durr. I'm totes open to any plotting and junk - it's just. I'm also terminally shy so. THIS IS WHY I'M ON THE INTERNET WHOOOOO. Said Sammos can be found on Said Internets at recumbence@aim and pistachioed@plurk. So. ...Yes. Again.

[hulk]

SLEEP IS A DEMANDING MISTRESS, AMMAY, OKAY. DON'T JUDGE ME. 8||||!!!!

[hulk]

And this is why I can never leave you alone. Ever.

[hulk]

I'M NOT SAYING IT ISN'T. IT'S ACTUALLY... CREEPILY ON THE BALL. DAMN.

[ironhowdoesit.livejournal.com]

why are we so obnoxious

[hulk]

...Sigh. All my sighs. All of them.

[thundering]

Hello Sing! This is Ammay, obviously bringing in everyone's favorite god-alien-what have you: THOR ODINSON. It's a pleasure to be here and I am super excited for shenanigans like you wouldn't believe.

If you need me, you can reach me on AIM at death but once or by PM. I do have a plurk, but I tend to keep it mostly private as to avoid bothering people with the mundane highlights of my super exciting life.

[usavatar]

....I blame you. INTRODUCE YOURSELF GOSH.

[knight4darkness.livejournal.com]

this is amazing oh gawd

[hulk]

Speak for yourself, I had no part in choreographing this plate of shenanigans.

[thundering]

If you expected anything else, you don't know me.

[usavatar]

HI. 8D

[hulk]

**as to avoid bothering people with the massive amounts of incoherent geek factor I engage in on a daily basis.

Fixed it.

[thundering]

PERMA-JUDGE = ON

HELLO RED WHITE AND BLUE HUMAN

i'm Mindy. I play this mothertrucker from Transformers (who is actually a car go figure) and I also play killswithbrooms other robot who is far more personable.

[thundering]

That's what I was trying to keep quiet. Damn it, Sammo.

[hulk]

Sadly - I do know you. So you have all my headshakes next to all my sighs.

[thundering]

I have no idea what you're talking about.

[theuserabides]

GREETINGS, USERS.

Hi, I'm Carolyn. I'm on the app team (you shoulda heard the high-pitched squealing noises I was making), and I play Kevin Flynn here, and Alex (spacebased), an OC.

Welcome aboard!

[hulk]

I'M IN THE WRONG ACCOUNT FOR THE APPROPRIATE TROLL FACE BUT. YOU CAN IMAGINE.
