DEATH ALIGNED / LIFE ALIGNED
sully's player is syd Life and Death have decided that all sentient beings can be categorized to align with one or the other. Once they've decided you belong with one or the other, they're going to treat you as being 'theirs'. Not that they'll harbor animosity for those aligned with the other half; it's just like having favorite children, is all. This is so we can play with various mechanics and even facilitate some CR. If you're not sure where to align your character, leave a comment here or contact us! plants, animals, the elements, immortality or agelessness, blood, flesh, energy, healing, health, vitality, youth, light, heat, science, improvement or evolution of living things, disruptive change, thrill of knowing they're alive, be it through pleasure or pain, wanting to find the meaning and purpose of life, passion, hedonism, love, knowledge, wisdom, newness, renewal, music, dance, manipulation of the body and mind, etc. rot, decay, death or the experienced act dying, killing, murder, trauma, ptsd, curses, sickness, chronic injuries, chronic pain, cold, darkness, mercy killing, living beyond your years, hate, fury, rage, sadism, a disregard for life including your own, the study of death and macabre themes, etc. |

Character name: bucky barnes | charles xavier
Character username:
Death or life aligned: death | life
Any notes:
bucky: death aligned because of the whole winter soldier life, plus the bonus of dying three times now (infinity war/duplicity/saltburnt). though he considers it four times, cause the fall counts to him (rip pre-hydra bucky). he pretty much aligns to most of death's themes, but crosses the line a little because of his whole werewolf side/serum stuff. plus future canon updates may impact that a little more, but happy to talk it over if the time comes.
charles: definitely life aligned. but he has a permanent link to erik (death aligned) that's slowly changing his world view the longer they're here. so happy for that to be picked up on if wanted.

Character name: jinx
Character username:
Death or life aligned: life
Any notes: she may seem death-aligned on account of all the murder, but she’s actually meant for more! potential for life-changing science and inventions, the energy to accomplish change, pretty much unkillable at this point.

no subject
Character name: roza zaripova
Character username:
Death or life aligned: life
Any notes: roza is so life-aligned that her body sometimes physically overwhelms her with excess energy she has to expend. (her spirit also does this with psychic energy, but that's more manageable, bc the spirit world is her jam.) she is hyper-abundant to the point it's occasionally less than fun. she's also hugely drawn to nature and is a dancer!

Character name: koby
Character username: kobes
Death or life aligned: life!
Any notes: he's all about hope and potential and new beginnings and helping to usher in a new age of the world!!! also for either of them, koby is still at the first stage of a journey to immense godlike power that even he isn't fully aware he possesses the potential for, soooo that could be fun for them to pick up on.

Character name: Josias di Jaconissa
Character username:
Death or life aligned: Life
Any notes: Relentlessly curious, greedily hedonistic, always after new experiences, new knowledge. He has experienced dying once (wasn't resurrected so much as time being rewound and changed, but he retained his memories) and hated it, no thanks.
Character name: John Murphy
Character username:
Death or life aligned: Death
Any notes: Being from a post-apoc canon, his whole life has been dictated by existing on the knife's edge of survival. In canon he's almost died a bunch of times, killed directly twice, and seen more people die than you could shake a stick at. In his CRAU game experiences he's died twice and killed a few more times. He's got a boatload of trauma, suffers chronic pain from his symbiote, has to actively fight to have hope (over basic pragmatism) in bad circumstances, and anger is his energy.
Character name: Mara Sov
Character username:
Death or life aligned: Both :)
Any notes: The Awoken were created at the exact point where the Traveller's defensive wave met the Witness' fleet's attack during the Collapse - where Light met Darkness. Light and Darkness are analogous to and/or encompass Life and Death in the Destiny world build, and the Awoken being "born" from both is very important to them as a race and within the theological landscape of the story. Mara is personally also balanced between the two - she's a several millennia old ruler who's been in quite a few wars, suffered a load of personal grief and trauma, technically died herself a couple of times, but also was responsible for the creation of the Awoken race, and loves life and the universe and people enough that she forfeited true immortality in the long-game hopes of being able to save Earth.
