CDT Frontier (Roleplay) | comment |
Character Frontier is the twenty-sixth installment of the main-series Character Development Thread.As the name suggests, it's set in an unnamed wilderness area that is a mixture of several terrain types found in the American West. It is meant to broadly evoke the feeling of a Wild West setting, though it is not specifically based around the Western genre and is open to characters from any type of story. Characters can choose to operate from a small frontier outpost town or to set out on their own.The thread can be found here. It began in August of 2015 and came to an end about two years later. | |

The Philosopher | |
CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_171c50a9 | comment |
The Philosopher: Suela is one, and worse, a relatively young one with audacious theories and more questions than answers. Give her an excuse, and she will make you suffer those questions. Speculating on Rivari issues, psychology, and the nature of several Big Questions surrounding them happens to be one of Tsadro's main hobbies. | |

The Stoic | |
CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_1c5002bc | comment |
The Stoic: Tsadro, for the most part. He takes a long time to open up around a person, and his emotional expressions are very subtle as it is. Note that the most prominent emotion he's expressed in-thread so far appears to be genuine concern for characters like Chloe and Arthur. Miyuki is this, by and large. And/or she's an Emotionless Girl. She does have feelings, though. It's just that she doesn't show them. Lupin is also one, and even sports a pair of Stoic Spectacles. | |

Diabolus ex Machina | |
CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_1e1aa82a | comment |
Diabolus ex Machina: Nemaforte's failure to sense that the Dead God was awakening seems to be one of these, contrived so that Zuri, the only other person in the forest/wagon group with Psychic Powers, could die. The Dead God's "warning signal" manifested as a temporal disturbance among other things, and it so happens that Nemaforte had just ingested a magic mushroom with the effect of slowing down time perception. So she thinks the disturbance is just an effect of the drug. | |

Knight in Sour Armor | |
CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_21f7ff0f | comment |
Knight in Sour Armor: Tsadro holds a not-uncommon sentiment among freshly-retired Rivari- he wants to believe, as his instincts as a servant have told him all his life, that humans are great, even as they disappoint him again and again. The fact that Unit Psi has broken the status quo and done something to fix their situation gives him great hope, enough to anger him whenever Arthur bemoans his situation. | |

How Do I Shot Web? | |
CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_21fd09a7 | comment |
How Do I Shot Web?: Happens with the psychic college students when they suddenly gain new powers in the middle of Day 2 - they use said powers rather clumsily. Zuri is surprised at how summoning fire in her palm actually feels, Lupin has a hard time interpreting the appearance of the auras he sees around people (and sometimes getting a spontaneous feeling about what it means), and Vicky accidentally sends multiple text messages to Lupin when she's trying to figure out her technomancy. Yamiko averts this trope, since unlike her classmates, she was actually possessed by the spirit of the donor classmate. She fires her first Agony Beam without any complications... except interference from another character. | |

Haunted Fetter | |
CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_2b38e788 | comment |
Haunted Fetter: The blade of Zuri's ritual dagger contains her soul, anchoring her to the mortal realm. When her ghost first appears, she moves the sheathed knife telekinetically into the wagon, where it slides out of the sheath on its own and releases her ghost. The use of this dagger makes sense, as she held onto it during her life (and used it in the ritual to revive Oswald), having originally belonged to her mother. | |

Power-Strain Blackout | |
CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_2e9105e4 | comment |
Power-Strain Blackout: Experienced by the psychic college students after they help Vicky fly Yamiko, Lupin, and herself from the wagon to the ritual site in the desert. Downplayed, though, in that they don't actually faint, but do feel very fatigued and unable to really think straight afterward. Apparently Nemaforte anticipated this, and gave them some of her Cosmic Potion in preparation. Cynthia blacks out after using too much magic in the Abandoned Mine, along with muscle cramps and overloaded nerves. | |

Magical Gesture | |
CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_3af9f8b6 | comment |
Magical Gesture: Nemaforte typically extends a palm outward whenever she uses a magic spell, particularly if its effects are difficult to see. Vicky and Zuri also used this when they were determining which of them obtained pyrokinesis from their classmates, trying to generate flames from their hands. Downplayed by Blair, whose only tells are very slight movements of his fingers and, when necessary, a slight change in the tone of his voice. | |

Wide-Eyed Idealist: Vicky, who is excited and overjoyed about her childhood dreams of having Psychic Powers actually coming true. Lampshaded by James and Kaitlyn, who laugh at or outright berate her (respectively) for thinking that it would be awesome to fight crime with the help of her telekinetic powers, pointing out how dangerous it would be. Kaitlyn even accuses her of living a sheltered life. Vicky's response is basically "Nah, I'm sure I'd do just fine!" | |

Mind over Manners | |
CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_4ac77ae7 | comment |
Mind over Manners: Happens with Yamiko, and also Lupin after he gets Aura Vision. When introducing herself in the hotel dining hall, Yamiko uses telepathy to read into tidbits about the person she's speaking to, then "guesses" those attributes when speaking. Naturally, a couple of characters call her out on it or even say it's rude. Similarly, Rip is not pleased when Lupin confronts him about his mysterious stone, based on a strange aura he saw around it. | |

CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_52488c54 | comment |
Drowning My Sorrows: Emotionally shaken from the possession fiasco over at the wagon heading to the mountains, and anxious about what other people would think about her telepathic powers, Yamiko engages in this at the desert ritual site. Since the first half of the drinks she has are an alcoholic (and mildly hallucinogenic) Mana Potion, she experiences Power Incontinence after adding sake, accidentally transmitting thoughts to whoever she's speaking to. The good news is that the potion's effects seem to keep her possession at bay. | |

The Empath | |
CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_556a3059 | comment |
The Empath Irina senses emotions to those she has made a "connection" with. Her high magical aptitude allows for this, and can sense other magical beings. Subverted with Nemaforte and Lupin- although they both have Aura Vision which allows them to easily detect even traces of emotion in people, they also happen to be The Stoic, which hinders their ability to interpret such emotions. Especially the case with Lupin, who just got that ability in the middle of Day 2 of the thread and thus doesn't have much experience with auras. In fact, the ability itself pressured him to open up a bit more emotionally (thus steering him towards The Empath role), though he still has difficulty doing so. | |

Fainting Seer | |
CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_5cc04812 | comment |
Fainting Seer: Lupin has a minor instance of this at the ritual site in the desert. When Hazel is remembering a traumatic event from her past, Lupin sees that as a dark presence in her aura, and that in turn causes him to faint. Justified as a panic attack triggered by a Troubled Backstory Flashback. Nemaforte also experienced this a couple of times, when she sensed the presence of the Dead God in the mountains. Again justified - any kind of fear causes Nemaforte to easily lose consciousness due to the curse she suffers from. Zuri becomes a dying seer after astral projecting to the Valley of the Dead God and witnessing said God's awakening. | |

Our Ghosts Are Different | |
CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_66479d0 | comment |
Our Ghosts Are Different: Zuri demonstrates this. While alive, her astral projection resembled a ghost, manifesting as a barely-visible spectral form of herself. Some time after her death, she comes back as a ghost; this ghost looks exactly like the real Zuri except transparent. In terms of the trope, she is a Type 17 - she was about to ascend to Heaven with her parents, but decided last minute to stay behind so she could be with her classmates. | |

Animate Dead | |
CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_68cac7e0 | comment |
Animate Dead: Zuri does this with her own corpse once the wagon group is back in town. Even though her ghost is still around, it proves to be quite difficult for her - her body moves as clumsily as a zombie and has a hard time speaking or holding things. Before she died, and while she was astral projecting, Nemaforte managed to animate her body for a while. Amanda apparently wishes she had this ability, specifically referring to necromancy. | |

Eloquent in My Native Tongue: This is the case with Nemaforte, who, despite Aliens Speaking English being in effect, speaks this "English" as a second language, messing up words and making many grammatical errors (much to the confusion of Scents and her translation software). When she speaks Latorinote the native language of Orenya, though, she sounds much more confident and consistent in her wording. | |

CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_75979171 | comment |
The Cuckoolander Was Right: When the wagon group encountered the starving and delusional Oswald, most of the group tried in vain to help him, until Nemaforte, who had previously been known to babble on about esoteric magic stuff, sensed that he was actually cursed. It was a purification ritual led by her that finally got him back on his feet... and he might've been fully cured had Zuri not interrupted Nemaforte's spell. | |

Exposition of Immortality | |
CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_78d103c3 | comment |
Exposition of Immortality: Tsadro attempts a subtler version of this by describing people he's met from throughout history, such as a Crusader, kids who died of plagues, and women who were victims of witchhunts, but all this nets him is a mental comparison to The Fair Folk, since Peggy and Finn come from a setting where people get spirited away across time. It's possible he's just not that good at this since everyone back in Aitherion know the Rivari are immortal. | |

CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_859ec5d8 | comment |
The Fair Folk: Blair Winters, albeit disguised in human form. He’s got all the charm and cunning to match. Tsadro's overall odd appearance, magical abilities, weakness to Cold Iron, and the fact that Earthen humans occasionally find themselves whisked away to his world have netted him some comparisons to the original Fair Folk, the Aos Si. | |

Badass Boast | |
CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_86b21114 | comment |
The nature-inclined Blair has senses that can range all around him and exhibits this several times, particularly in the camp overnight and while traversing the Small Valley, but he explicitly uses it to describe the freshly-arrived Baron Verez, Prinem, and Hailstorm without having turned to look at them as a sort of Badass Boast to Acting Commissar Zekarim, whose fear/loyalty was actually turning Blair's magic inside out. | |

Eldritch Abomination | |
CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_8774fb47 | comment |
Baron Verez tries to use his telepathy to scan the Valley for lifeforms after teleporting in, only to find that the telepathic signature of the Dead God is strong enough to blind his life sense almost completely to lesser signals. Zuri experiences a similar sensation when scouting the area with her Astral Projection, though to her it feels more like a hard barrier preventing her from going anywhere near the Dead God. | |

CDT Frontier (Roleplay) / int_8ad43dc9 | comment |
Ragtag Bunch of Misfits: The group heading out to search for the Dead God: a hyperactive philosopher, a cynical cop, two cybernetic super-soldiers, a weapons designer and his soul-bonded giant wolf, an unscrupulous mage and his human-not-human girlfriend, and a camel. The other group heading out to search for the Dead God: two of the Mad Bastards (the African-Cockney bird and the aging Kiwi bushman), a green-skinned alien and her furry bodyguard and Robot Buddy, four college students with Psychic Powers, a tattooed cyborg, a Russian ex-military bounty hunter and a short elfin witch. All riding together in a wagon. At the Temple in the Southwestern Desert we have two more of the Mad Bastards (the young former Wehrmacht conscript and the pretty young farm girl), an ex-servant-turned chief of staff with light-emitting tattoos, a mute military captain, a Neo-Celtic gang member and a heavily tattooed, rather "punk"-looking woman. | |

Lupin has a minor instance of this at the ritual site in the desert. When Hazel is remembering a traumatic event from her past, Lupin sees that as a dark presence in her aura, and that in turn causes him to faint. Justified as a panic attack triggered by a Troubled Backstory Flashback. | |

Chekhov's Hobby: When Nemaforte was first introduced and met Annie and Gregory, she mentioned a class she had been heading towards on the train. Fast forward to the following day, when Iraal asked her about Orenya's history, and she explained it, having Suddenly Always Knew That despite being naive about many other things. Perhaps the class she had been taking was a history class. | |

He would say that; he is actually the one who depowered both of them. This is also experienced by Annie, who used up her powers of energy manipulation to rescue Gregory from the realm of Jericho. | |

Happens with the psychic college students when they suddenly gain new powers in the middle of Day 2 - they use said powers rather clumsily. Zuri is surprised at how summoning fire in her palm actually feels, Lupin has a hard time interpreting the appearance of the auras he sees around people (and sometimes getting a spontaneous feeling about what it means), and Vicky accidentally sends multiple text messages to Lupin when she's trying to figure out her technomancy. | |

It's especially difficult for her to explain it, as she's from a planet whose culture revolves around Functional Magic - a couple of times Zuri (an Earthling with an understanding of magic) played the part of interpreter. | |

Nemaforte experiences a variety of this after ingesting the "Mushroom of Time" herb - time starts moving very slowly for her, and in that time she takes notice of every little sound made by the wagon and the surroundings, is able to understand what everyone is saying even though they would seem to be speaking very slowly, and even is able to sense everyone's presence in the wagon and look at them with her eyes closed. Plus she has more "time" to think about what she says, resulting in her sounding more articulate. It does help that in the wagon, she briefly vaporized an incense that helps with focus and awareness. | |

Normally looking upon it would not cause such a reaction (Lupin didn't react this way despite his Aura Vision), but since Yamiko was still under the influence of too much Cosmic Potion and had read the image of the Dead God in Lupin's mind, she ended up having a telepathic reaction to it. | |

Experienced by the psychic college students after they help Vicky fly Yamiko, Lupin, and herself from the wagon to the ritual site in the desert. Downplayed, though, in that they don't actually faint, but do feel very fatigued and unable to really think straight afterward. Apparently Nemaforte anticipated this, and gave them some of her Cosmic Potion in preparation. | |

The other group heading out to search for the Dead God: two of the Mad Bastards (the African-Cockney bird and the aging Kiwi bushman), a green-skinned alien and her furry bodyguard and Robot Buddy, four college students with Psychic Powers, a tattooed cyborg, a Russian ex-military bounty hunter and a short elfin witch. All riding together in a wagon. | |
