CR MEME



CR MEME!
It's been a while since we had one of these, so lets all gather for a nice little CR meme.

Please share your ideas of interactions you'd love your character to have, or plots you are rolling around in your head that might need a few more folks. Is your character looking for a friend? An enemy? A rival? You could find it all here. And remember, the more detailed, the better! We all want all the CR, but specific plans, or at least a specific direction you want to take something in, will really help out everybody involved.

Like before, this CR meme will also include a template specifically geared towards Rocket CR. Please fill it in to let our Rocket members know how you feel about getting your characters involved in some crime.

CHARACTER
Name Armin Arlert; [personal profile] schachmeister
Canon: Attack on Titan.
Cliffnotes: Okay, so the very short of Armin's world is that he comes from a world where giant human-like monsters called Titans try to eat all of humanity, so they live behind a set of Walls. Several years ago, the outermost wall was breached by Titans (which had been considered impossible before that) and Armin lost his grandpa and was displaced from his home. At twelve he joined the military, and after three years of training, he became a full-fledged soldier and joined the Survey Corps, the branch dedicated to exterminating Titans and uncovering their secrets.

The reason why I am keeping this very short is because, frankly, Armin has been in Victory Road for over five years now, and has a far greater attachment to this world than to his own. Also, a lot of his issues related to his own world have mostly been dealt with, so I'd rather focus on his life here.

In Victory Road, Armin is the current gym leader of the Pelagic Gym, an aurora league gym focused on underwater battling. The gym is located on a small unnamed island in the Sevii Island archipelago, which is also obviously where he lives. Armin is a great lover of all things ocean and water pokemon related. He owns a great number of them, and his gym also has a giant tank that is home to several extinct water pokemon. In addition to all of this, Armin also runs a Lapras breeding project. He has a small pod of Lapras (many inherited from other characters). Once every few months, he breeds a great batch of young Lapras and lets his pod raise them until they are old enough (which, in order to keep things a bit realistic, I'm keeping at six-twelve months) after which he releases them into the wild. This is a project he inherited from a dear friend, and it has somewhat become his life's work along with his gym.

Armin is a gentle, friendly person, who much prefers debate and finding mutual solutions over fighting. He's got a tactician's mind (his greatest asset back home) and a brain that absorbs information like a sponge. He's someone who always loves to learn, whether it is more facts about this world and its pokemon, or about other people and the worlds they come from. He feels that the best way to understand others is to understand the places they are from. He's pretty modest and quick to downplay his own achievements and always ready to answer a question if he can.

He's also freshly engaged and completely head over heels for his now fiancé. And still can't really believe that is happening.

Looking for:
- People who are willing to debate things with him. He has an open mind, but at the same time, very strong convictions on certain subjects. Still, he likes to hear people out where he can.
- Anyone who is willing to teach him anything related to other worlds and cultures or animals/nature. Armin loves the natural world (his great dream was to see the ocean as a child) and he strives to always understand more about other people.
- When Armin was new here, he was taken under the wing of several people who helped him learn the many things he did not know about from his own world. I'd be absolutely delighted if Armin could now be in the position of the teacher. He already tries to reach out and help newcomers with their first questions, but if there is any person who has an interest in the subjects Armin is well versed in (the ocean or water pokemon) or someone who is interested in working with water pokemon or starting their own breeding projects, please, he'd love to help so much!
- Uh. Armin is going to get married at some point. We don't have a date yet, but boy, he has no idea what he is doing here.
Recent post: None unfortunately.

ROCKET PARTICIPATION FORM
Character’s trainer class: Breeder
Are you down for Rocket shenanigans?: Yes (but limited)
What type of things are you okay with?:

✓ Battle encounters with Rockets
✓ Non-battle, but still hostile encounters with Rockets (think something like getting robbed of a rare item or getting scammed)

Armin has already gone through losing pokemon to the rockets and has dealt with a rocket heist on his Lapras, so those are things I am not interested in doing with him again. But I have an open mind for other things!
