EMP

 

ᛗ

  Behold, an opportunity to gather.

Welcome to Somnia's first EMP! This is the place to be if you're interested in the game's setting, if you're unsure about who you'd like to bring or if you just want to check out the vibes. Remember that the EMP is open to all, and you don't need an invite to participate in the slightest!

Dates to note are as follows:

- TDM: June 7th
- RESERVES: June 21st
- APPS: June 22nd - 26th
- GAME START: July 1st

An 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. Just like our EMP, you do not need an invite to participate in the TDM, either (only to reserve and app). Mod-run invites will also be available then, so I thank you kindly for your patience!

Use the form below to show us those pretty white jaws!

ᛗ CHARACTER
Name: sam porter bridges
Canon: death stranding
Blurp:

sam porter bridges is a loner with a lot of baggage - literal and emotional. burdened by his DOOMS, a condition that gives him an ability to sense the dead, sam's life revolves around delivering packages to a fractured world while battling ghostly entities and constant rain that ages and decays everything it touches. he's got all the charm of a wet cardboard box, but underneath that gruff exterior, there's a man who'd rather carry the weight of the world on his shoulders than face his own trauma. his phobia of being touched causes rashes to break out on his skin, making the simple act of human contact feel like an overwhelming nightmare. with his trusty bridge baby (BB or 'lou') and an outfit that says "sponsored by heavy boots and the apocalypse," sam is the reluctant hero who keeps trudging forward, even if it's just to prove he can. he may act like he doesn't care, but deep down, there's a heart in there somewhere - buried under a few layers of regret, isolation, and damp hiking boots.

Vessel Type & General ideas:

sam would make a great necromancer token, especially with his DOOMS and repatriate status - he's already (metaphorically) half-dead, so why not embrace it? his constant trauma and fractured memories are basically a necromancer's resume. plus, he's been with bb and dealing with tar ghosts for so long, might as well raise some corpses too. his emotional baggage is practically a necrotic aura at this point, anyway.

necromancer sam, holy SHIT
sorry this isn't constructive that's just really good

[shorebound]

LMAO yes i thought it was too good a chance to pass up tbh

[snaggletooth]

completely undecided on who i'm bringing, but even if i don't end up threading with sammy i'm popcorning this

[shorebound]

YEAH i'm also considering an expedition 33 guy, so i understand the struggle

[tache]

well hello there!

Sam would be AMAZING as a Necromancer token? That's such a good theme for him considering canon (which I am only loosely familiar with but shhh)

[shorebound]

hello hello!!

and yee, he really would be. so much glorious potential that he'll absolutely hate. /rubs hands together
