Welcome to Beautiful Dreamer's very first AU/CR Plotting Meme! This first version is going up in advance of the game itself to give potential applicants the opportunity to feel out how they want to play their AUs as well as shopping around for pre-game CR and potentially some CR castmates...??? Perish the thought!
During future app rounds, the AU and CR Plotting memes will be split in two in order for new players to have a bit of breathing room in workshopping their CR but in this pre-game stretch while we're all chewing on the bars of our collective cage you get a two for one deal!
Don't feel as though you have to be 100% beholden to anything you brainstorm here – ultimately this is just to get ideas flowing and to help prebake some character connections before entry into the game. Feel free to also take a look around the FAQ pages or tag about on the TDM before posting here and generate some ideas that way!
Once you're ready to get cookin', just fill out the form below and paste it into the comments.
Player Name: Star Contact:Starscall, PM or Starscall#7508 Introduction: Hi, I'm Star. (they/he) I'm a long time Mahou Shoujo fan since far too many years to actually want to count them. lol Other than that I really enjoy fantasy, sci fi, xanxia, and a variety of other genres. I play a lot of video games, listen to a lot of music (especially kpop), and I'm honestly far too easy to enable.
Oh! I'm in the UK, but keep Weird Hours. I'm literally working on this at 3:35 am. Tehe.
Character Name: Yuuki Asuna Canon: Sword Art Online. Honestly, one of the reasons Asuna came to mind is because she comes prebaked with alternate designs that can be used for a magical girl persona. Which is... probably silly, but I've grown to really like the idea. (I'm thinking her Blue ALO Undine version would work nicely, complete with wings)
About:
Asuna is just a fairly normal teenage girl who grew up in Yumemigaoka. One of two children, she has an older brother, ultimately before everything she had a pretty normal life, if... slightly more wealthy than the average person. Pre-Dreamer she went to a Private All-Girl's school, but everything changed when she gained her new identity.... which I have yet to name. Dreamer Stacia seems a little.... too on the nose. Dreamer Flash too basic. Dreamer Senko? Dreamer Titania? They're all kinda meh. So consider this a WIP.
Asuna herself is a fairly kind and helpful, the sort who has trouble turning her back on someone in need. In short, she's the sort of person who'd take the duties of a Magical Girl very strongly. It's a Power that bears responsibility and she won't hesitate to do everything she can to save people. She's a proud member of the DU.
Short Term & Long Term Plans:
Being a Magical Girl might not be quite the same as fighting for your life in a Death Game, but I feel like it hits pretty close. She's very openly supportive of the DU and is happy to work as a team to help people. I haven't quite decided if she's a Striker or a Saver, as both actually suit her fairly well.
Long term, she's going to be focused on really developing her abilities and being the Best Dreamer she can be. Because the stronger she gets, the more she can help people and after Awakening that's a very large focus in her life.
Desired CR/AU Castmates: I feel like a Unit would be really important for her. Which is why I need to figure out her Archetype sooner rather than later. I might lean one way or the other depending on which role needs more members tbh.
Other than that, I'm looking for everything! Old and New friends and classmates. Maybe some enemies or at least people put off by how she's so focused on being a Proper Dreamer and Doing the Right Thing? But really, anything works.
Ben’s style is very defensive and involves blocking/parrying everything until your opponent makes a mistake and punishing that ruthlessly. Taunting also features heavily.
Plus he does this pose a lot: So it might a cool callback thing to their training to have her do that at some point
Asuna's more of a aggressive type of fighter relying on being faster and just....hitting them more than they hit her, but probably wanted to also learn a more defensive style too. Which might mean she sought him out for that specifically.
Okay wait I'm having a vision of potential CR. We can just leave it with your suggestion and occasionally have fencing training scenes or something, OR,
they're coming at it from different angles but Ryoko is also super focused on getting stronger and working hard as a Dreamer, so I think they could vibe based on their shared work ethic
Asuna's going to actively have to learn to.... maybe focus a little less on being a Dreamer and balancing her life with her Dreamer work. So that could definitely work. Workaholics unite?

At some point it could happen. :)

We could do THIS.
Just a thought. No pressure.

We can just leave it as "Asuna occasionally goes to Ben for sword fighting lessons to brush up on her defense."
