Player Name: Terri Character Name(s) Sheena Fujibayashi
NARRATIVE/STORY OBJECTIVES (IC) What goal(s) do you have for your character(s) in-game? Between TuShanshu and Khu Ioduan, Sheena has been re-discovering who she truly is--all while actually growing up. She's nearing 30, and she needs to be more mature in her future actions. What adventure(s) do you want to set them on? Have you ever seen the episode of Star Trek: TNG where Deanna was left in command of the bridge due to a accident? I'd love to see something like that happen to Sheena, where she's suddenly thrust into a command position--testing her ability to be the Chief she is meant to be.
What challenges would help your character grow, and what challenges would prevent or slow that growth? Sheena is a character whose growth can be slowed or helped by the same thing. In other words, one day, a terrible trauma can cause her to backpedal and second-guess herself, then later, she'll face that trauma and fear head-on in order to conquer it.
OOC OBJECTIVES Why did you want to join Khu Ioduan? What elements of setting and community attracted you? Have these reasons changed? Came over from TuShanshu and wanted to see how the two games would be connected and if there was going to be a connection between the two. (Incidentally, Sheena is comparing the destruction during the storm to the vision shown while back in Keeliai).
What do you hope to get out of playing in Khu Ioduan? It's actually fun! I know I hit burn out recently, but that sometimes happens. I would still like to continue and develop as much CR/history with Sheena.
What, if anything, made you feel welcome in the game, and what could have been improved? The people and the mods.
METAPLOT AND REAL LIFE What are some examples of media (books, movies, games, etc.) that you feel balance or handle serious topics gracefully? Star Trek: TNG did that amazingly well. They covered rape, discrimination, and so many other topics with such grace and seriousness that when watching, you didn't even realize you were learning something.
Shaw's "Pygmalion" (My Fair Lady) does it with a comedic flair, but it's still a learning experience. In fact, Shaw himself wanted people to learn while they were ebing entertained at the same time.
What kinds of conflict do you find engaging, and what kinds of resolution appeal to you? I enjoy surprises that make sense. Where people aren't exactly who you thought they were. (You know, judging the book by its cover kind of thing.) And I really love it when even THAT is switched up and you're kept second-guessing throughout the entire thing.
I like honest resolutions. The "I didn't see that coming" types that tend to actually be the best solution for everything. Slow build resolutions are also nice, because they make you wonder--since not everything can be resolved in one go and you can see any progress made.
What are your thoughts/concerns about the possible intersection of metaplot and real life? Eh, I'm a little iffy on this. I think that would depend on the timing and what the subject is.
OTHER/NOTES: I'm in agreement with the Anonymous poster above about AC since we are currently small right now.
