Help Me Integrate!
Every now and then we can all use some inspiration!
Sometimes finding our way through a vast setting is overwhelming. In other instances, we're unsure of how to interact with meta plot without stepping on someone's toes. And then there are those times that we just want a little flavor of the game to touch on our muse personally. Never fear, your moderators are here to help!
Should you desire some creative nudges and license from us, feel free to drop a comment here utilizing the form in the box below. We'll do our best to give you a brief suggestion or two. Maybe you just want something general to gain more/new CR but have a hard time finding a way to do so while keeping your muse in character. Part of the joy of such an expansive environment and our application process is we are happy to trust you with what your characters could achieve with inspired plot beyond our starter suggestions. Feel free to give a few brief details on your character that might be relevant to particular nature of your integration request so that we don't have to pour over your entire application and take longer to respond.
All comments are screened and there's no obligation to use any advice offered - really we just want to help you jump start your own plots and revelations.

To give you an idea of what you might ask and receive, we've included a few examples in italics.
Irene Adler, a famous opera singer from the late 1800s, was looking for ways to pursue a career in a modern New York. The writer mentioned her former job as well as her river power of coercion through song. A few ways she can start off are auditions for off Broadway shows, minor parts in community musicals, etc. Maybe she fails a few until she gets that power under control and conditions her voice to adjust to the cold winter climate! From there, the sky is the limit in a place like New York. The writer has been torn on her making it to a Tony Award winning show or ending up in a low end cabaret from.
Lois Lane, an intrepid reporter from a modern Earth, wanted to find ways of getting closer to information on the Landlords in hopes of getting involved in meta plot. We encouraged the writer to have Lois use that fierce dedication of researching documentation to find the truth by spending a few months tracking down deeds on the Residences' property ownership, property tax records, etc and provided her some information she'd find over the span of those many weeks' effort. It was the writers prerogative to decide how much of that information they found and making up a tale of the journey to that valued detail find, along with deciding how to make use of it.
An original character, a knight and renowned swordsman from a medieval setting, wanted to translate that deeply honored tradition into New York City without looking like a madman for sporting a broadsword everywhere he traveled. Essentially they wanted to give him a modern hobby that played off his original talents. We suggested he pursue fencing, sword based martial arts, or learning small knife and alternate weapon combat. Themight even find himself growing interested in firearms or, alternately, teaching self defense to others!
