THE CR/PLOTTING MEME

HOW IT DO
01 Make a post with your name on it.
02 Reply to that post with your characters' meme responses. Everyone gets their own comment. The meme will be organized. (Refer here for examples.)
03 Comment on other people's threads with your ideas! A meme won't work if people post and don't respond. Do not be intimidated, people post because they want responses, yes even yours.
04 Keep checking back! No one is late to the Plot/CR meme. This is early for just that reason, so look back regularly to plot with errybody!
05 Stolen from Kirsten (almost word-for-word oops) who stole it from...gosh who even knows anymore. Alex?

Example:

Name: That's the character in question.
Canon: This field almost writes itself.
What is your character doing?: The sorts of shenanigans they are up to this very second.
Are you willing to have your character get hurt?: If Y, how much and in what situation.
Does your character have a job?: If N, would they like one? If Y, are they hiring?
Is your character on a team?: If N, would they like to be?
What kinds of plots are you after?: C&C encompasses the cliches of almost every genre! If you just have a direction you want to take your character, but no specific plots in mind, feel free to list that, too. Mayhap people will brainstorm. These plots needn't happen immediately either, obviously!
Is your character open for pairings?: If there’s anything you ship, you can list them if you want! Feel free to describe your character's quirks or general type.
Powers: List them. Are these powers widely known?
Skills: What are they good at? Fighting, calligraphy, underwater basketweaving, etc? Anything you'd like to work into a plot.
Likes: This also applies to personality traits that they gel with.
Dislikes: Personality traits apply here, too.
Anything else?: Free space for all your tl;dr needs. NOT JUST AN INVITATION TO POST A FUNNY GIF.

Name: Bellatrix Lestrange
Canon: Harry Potter
What is your character doing?: Nothing much. Now that the Skrull shenanigans are over, she's back to her usual routine of torture and generally being bored.
Are you willing to have your character get hurt?: Yep.
Does your character have a job?: Nope. She's super restless though so I might actually have her looking for a semi-legal job. At least something that will keep her busy. God forbid.
Is your character on a team?: Nope.
What kinds of plots are you after?: Anything! I'm always up for more sketchy CR.
Is your character open for pairings?: Nope, I know it sucks.
Powers: Magic!
Skills: She is very handy with a knife. Oh, also she's a really skilled duelist.
Likes: Torture, murder, loyalty.
Dislikes: Betrayal. Self-righteousness when she's not the one doing it. Estranged members of the Black family.
Anything else?: Not really.
