- EVENT/TDM: December 1stAn opportunity for players who do not have invites to post their interest in receiving one will be available on the TDM as a mod comment to reply to. Current players may extend their invites, and if you don't know anyone in the game, the mod will make a decision (note that this does not guarantee an invite). Just like our EMP, you do not need an invite to participate in the TDM, either— only to reserve and app.

α CHARACTER
Name: Hong Lu
Canon: Limbus Company
Brief Info: Hong Lu is from a dystopian city where Capitalism and Supernatural Horrors hold hands and make everyone suffer. Anyways he's working as what amounts to a mercenary for the titular Limbus Company with eleven other weirdos based on real-world literature, designated as Sinner No. 6 (if any of you read Dream of the Red Chamber I commend you).
He's the most cheerful of the bunch. Sheltered and privileged as all hell, on first impressions he seems spoiled sweet or ditzy. The worst part is he knows this and can play it up for fun while still being a naive moron at times. He's sincere and ready to be understanding though. Even as he deals with horrors and life-threatening danger on the near-daily, he handles them 99% of the time with a smile and he's a weirdo for it.
The fact he has managed to survive to this point despite treachery everywhere, and he isn't as oblivious to the evils in various proximities around him as he wants others to believe (he makes casual comments about his older siblings being the most likely to kill him), does mean something is probably not quite right with him. Probably trauma.
I'm taking him from the later part of Canto 8: The Surrendered Witnessing, which is his focus chapter. Not from the very end of it, but it gives him stuff to Think about, like personal agency.
Vessel Type & General ideas: Drake was what I played around with last TDM because it's kind of canon (he even got a second dragon-based gacha thing in the meantime, wow), but Aquamancer is also very on theme for him.

I had fun with Hong Lu in the last Test Drive meme, I'll definitely be down for playing against you again in any TDM thread!

I really enjoyed that thread too, thank you! Hades is a fantastic game and Theseus was hilarious. The end of many a run in Elysium for me...
