there's an arm pun somewhere here

HELLO FRIENDOS. My name's Luis, and I'll be bringing in Future Gohan from Dragon Ball.

For the uninitiated, he's a half-alien kung-fu action dude who can fire lasers out of his hands. However, he's actually super nice and polite and friendly, and is more interested in being a nerd and reading books rather than fighting. Unfortunately, this is the version of the character that comes from a devastated Earth, where he's spent the last thirteen years fighting off a pair of over-powered androids. As such, he's less of an endearing nerd, and more of a stressed-out warrior who's just Done(TM).

He'll be waking up in the Eastern Plains, if anyone would like to do some arrival stuff with him! And if you wanna plot or chat or whatever, you can find me over at megasquip and/or xtrsunburn#4292 at Discord. I'm real excited to play with everyone!

I don't need to introduce myself to you. But I'm glad you're here. c:

Interesting factoid: one-armed men now make up about 12% of the island's demographic.

Quick, someone app Edward Elric and/or Yang Xiao Long. Start a support group.

Hey Luis!

I'm Steve, and I've got Mordred here who's definitely not going to get why someone who can shoot lasers out of their hands would rather read than fight. I remember your Gohan from Empatheias, so I'm looking forward to seeing what he does here!

[lamentingly]

HI STEVE. I vaguely recall you from Emp, although I don't recall us having any CR there. I GUESS IT'S TIME TO CHANGE THAT.

Also, fun fact: I started watching Fate/Apoc recently, both on the suggestion of my roommate, and because I saw Mordred on the Taken list. And it's been a trip, given all I know about Fate was what little I saw of the very first Fate/Stay anime.

[arrogator]

Yeah, I don't think we had CR, but we can definitely end up with some here!

And enjoy! It's not a masterpiece or anything like that, but it's a mostly fun watch!

Hey, Luis, nice to meet you. I... don't really know much about Future Gohan, I only know the basics about Dragon Ball, but Keith can relate with being half-alien? Not so much the firing lasers out of his hands part, though.

Looking forward to seeing you around!

[lamentingly]

Hey, nice to meet you too! And that's fine, I can fill you in on Gohan or Dragon Ball if there's any questions you might have! Gohan will probably try to tone down his abilities just a bit, so he doesn't come off like he's some Big Damn Hero, but... well, he'll probably still fly around, so. That'll be fun for people to react to.

[fighterpaladin]

xDDD That will definitely be something that will catch Keith's attention! He's seen a lot, but I'm pretty sure he still hasn't seen people actually fly. You know, all on their own.

[lamentingly]

Yeah, that tends to throw some people off. I'm actually working on an intro log where he'll be flying around, so if you wanna play that out, I'd be down!

[fighterpaladin]

He'll think it's pretty cool! And it depend on when it happens, since Keith was down for around four days after he arrived due to heatstroke. But it would definitely be neat if he got to see Gohan fly at some point! Also. Hand lasers. That's really neat too.

[sharpshooterpaladin]

Belatedly, hi!

I'm Kite, and DBZ was kind of my childhood, so it's really neat to see someone from that incredibly surreal canon around. Lance, for his part, is going to feel very reminded of someone else he knows who's Kind Of Done and also short one arm. ... Why is this such a theme...

Anyway, nice to meet you! I'll go ahead and add you on plurk.

[lamentingly]

HELLO KITE, nice to meet you! And yeah, thinking about it now, I can see the similarities between Future Gohan and Shiro, in the "so very Done but still just kind of takes responsibility because someone has to" department. Granted, I've only seen Season 1, so there's that.
