[blind_arrogance]

Character's Name: Gul Skrain Dukat (yup, his first name is Skrain. WTF)
Character's Journal: blind_arrogance
What Have They Been Up To This Month?: Nothing XD not here yet. Although technically he's been killing Bajorans on Terok Nor.
Type of CR You're Looking For:: Harassement. Who wants to get harassed by Dukat(or for that matter who wants to harass Dukat)? If you're female, he'll probably hit on you. If you're Bajoran, count on it :)

Also I anticipate the Prefect of Bajor giving tea_earlgrey_hot a very big headache. willriker can join in the fun too.

[strangecase]

Harassment for Julian plz! Despite incorrect journal.

[captgreatcoat]

Character's Name: Captain Jack Harkness

Character's Journal: captgreatcoat

What Have They Been Up To This Month?: So. He went for his checkup and got told he's a fixed point in space by a not very happy sun avatar.

And then he walked into a bar and found the long-lost love(ish) of his lif(ves) there.

Boy has had a busy month.

Type of CR You're Looking For: Jack is still VERY much caught up in trying to work through some Major Stuff from his canon with Trance and the Doctor, but once's he's sorted that out, pretty much anything!

[thelasttimelord]

*totally innocent face*

[a_quick_study]

Character's Name: Jonas Quinn

Character's Journal: a_quick_study

What Have They Been Up To This Month?: Not a huge amount. He's still hanging out with people in his initial entry post.

Though he's probably about to find out he's not nearly as human as he thinks he is in his medical thread.

Type of CR You're Looking For: Jonas needs friends.

Also. I desperately want him to get the chance to talk the ethics of the Prime Directive with someone from Starfleet. Any Starfleet officers up for this (preferably Enterprise crew)?

(Why, might you ask? Because if Stargate Command followed the Prime Directive, Jonas would be dead and his homeland a smoking crater. Should make for an interesting chat, yes?)

[beverly_crusher]

One officer right here! Especially if you don't mind getting drafted into a theatrical performance (acting ability not strictly required) ^__^

[reginald_barclay]

Character's Name: Lt. jg. Reginald Barclay
Character's Journal: reginald_barclay
What Have They Been Up To This Month?: Stressing the hell out, and spending a lot of time on the holodeck. (He's been puttering around as an NPC, but he's about to arrive for realz) He'd only just transferred in from the Zhukov a little while before Q started his shenanigans, and he keeps to himself.
Type of CR You're Looking For: aw, man. Barclay's new and he's pretty aware that his shipmates don't like him much, and don't think he belongs aboard such an important ship. (This is before his holo-addiction comes to light, and his creepy programs of the senior officers.) So if anybody wants to help make his life aboard the Enterprise a bit more pleasant, he totally won't make a creepy hologram of you.

:D ?

[heartofasun]

Trance totally loves him---and encourages him to make creepy holograms of her.

[thelasttimelord]

I just want to throw everyone at him.

Like, for obvious Deanna & Barclay have their sessions. But this daffy ol' face here will be checking in on the LT since he was the first face in this brave new ship. And Marian will totally say hi at some point (just imagine it, Barclay, the whole world of ills the twelfth century woman might expose you to along with all her smiles and a cup of tea).

[thelasttimelord]

Character's Name: The Doctor
Character's Journal: TheLastTimeLord
What Have They Been Up To This Month?: Just arrived, with Rose in tow, really. Middle of a check-up with another timey-wimey person, and getting a room, and catching up with Jack. Right also. Somewhere around three to five days into a new face, too. So it's Whole New-New World, with a whole New-New Doctor.

Type of CR You're Looking For::

EVERYTHING. And a lot of running. Can't forget the running.

[captgreatcoat]

did someone say running?

[beforebond]

Character's Name: James Bond
Character's Journal: beforebond
What Have They Been Up To This Month?: So far, he's just got an entrance and is slooowly (my fault, sorry!) being told about the ship. Nothing else has been afoot just yet but ...
Type of CR You're Looking For:: So, ideally I want to have James begin to get more active in helping on whatever game-missions start to pop up, that way he starts to develop his spy-skills and learns that this is kind of what he wants to do.

In the meantime though, after he's familiarized himself with the ship and pretty much recognizes most of the faces of the other people trapped with him, he's going to be bored. And when he's bored, he has a tendency to cause a little bit of trouble. (He needs order and rules, see.) If anyone wants to get up to some trouble? That would be amazing. Also FUN. Y/Y?

[just_a_chemical]

Trouble, what? Who knows where boundaries are if you don't test them?

Eleanor gets bored too. ^_^ She gets bored enough, she takes things apart or tries hacking them. She could use some trouble that won't get her thrown in the brig (much).

[scarred_grin]

Character's Name: Loki (the myth-type one)
Character's Journal: scarred_grin
What Have They Been Up To This Month?: Quite a lot, but under the radar. Setting plans in motion. Programming all kinds of things into the replicators. Transferring the contents of Pyrrha's mp3 player into the ship's banks of entertainment. Slowly working his way through the Chinese zodiac--well, he's been a sheep, a monkey and a dogfox [horses have been taken care of, thanks]. Exasperating his wife, probably.
Type of CR You're Looking For:
If you're bored, you just come on over here--he'll find something for you to do. It may not be highbrow, but it'll be fun. Want to be turned into someone/something else for a while? He can do that. It's 3AM, you're still up, and you want to have a food fight? He's in, no questions asked.

In terms of plans he's working on, he's going to be making moonshine in his room (until security finds out and makes him stop, probably). And he's getting a job writing holodeck scenarios/holonovels (which is getting its own post at some later point) so if you've got nothing better to do and want to be a guinea pig for some of his programs, let me know. Some are good and some are (entertainingly) bad.

:D ?

[a_quick_study]

'Allo! Mun would like to point out the glee she is getting from Loki the monkey.

And this here is a curious nerdboy who'd love to play guinea pig with the holodeck. :)

[mirabile_mireille]

Character's Name: Mireille Adler
Character's Journal: mirabile_mireille
What Have They Been Up To This Month?: Mireille doesn't know what to do with herself, in such an automated place. But she learned how to ride a bicycle on the holodeck--she's got an excellent teacher for that.
Type of CR You're Looking For:
anything! She's slowly getting better at seeming somewhat normal around new people. This is all really far outside her normal experience, but she can learn.

(Maybe someone should tell her that walking around holding a full glass of something or other doesn't really help her blend in, it just makes it obvious that she's not drinking anything)

[pyrrha_pandora]

Character's Name: Pyrrha Pandora
Character's Journal: pyrrha_pandora
What Have They Been Up To This Month?: Pyrrha is actually kind of disappointed that alien abduction is nothing like those supermarket tabloids had led her to expect, no probing or anything alone in her head for the first time in about nine years, and she's not doing so well with the loneliness. She's been drawing a lot, and taking care of her kid, and that's about it.
Type of CR You're Looking For:
Want a tattoo? Maybe some custom clothing that's fancier than what you can get at a replicator? Maybe art lessons? A friend with stories that probably won't go where you expect them to? She's your lifeform. Especially if you're willing to have a go at some House Rules Pictionary. ^_^

[bet_on_the_river]

Character's Name: Booker DeWitt
Character's Journal: bet_on_the_river
What Have They Been Up To This Month?: Poor Booker takes self-loathing to a whole new level--he was only holding himself together back home because of his work, and bosses who needed him to be available 24/7 in case their constituents needed anything. He doesn't have that here, and he's not the kind of guy to ask for help, so he spends his time drinking and then being annoyed that with the synthehol, he can't actually numb anything. (yeah, his canon is a really cheery place)
Type of CR You're Looking For:
I'm up for anything. Left to his own devices he skews darker, but you give him distractions and he's fine. Generally serious, and not the most talkative with people he doesn't know, but he can carry on a conversation. He's got stories.

wrong journal but ...

[beforebond]

I think Booker could use a little bit of Rose Tyler-type cheer. She's got experience dealing with the angsty, often self-loathing types (see: Captain Jack Harkness + the 10th Doctor on some of his days) and she is generally pretty good at keeping them smiling and laughing.

:D?

[notacrimelord]

Character's Name: Doctor Juvard Illip Oggurobb

Character's Journal: notacrimelord.dreamwidth.org/

What Have They Been Up To This Month?: Juvard has been pestering crew about his lodgings and receiving his physical/medical clearance. He managed to get himself a proper mud pool for sleeping in, but failed at getting it aurodium-plated. He is also planning Robotics lessons to a friend.

Type of CR You're Looking For:: Cultural exchange and clash; he is a giant slug with some humanoid features and a large dose of megalomania covered with a thin and flexible layer of etiquette. He should be making a few frenemies as he exposes people to the Hutt Way of Thinking.

[just_a_chemical]

Character's Name: Eleanor Lamb
Character's Journal: just_a_chemical
What Have They Been Up To This Month?: El's developed a love-hate relationship with the replicator. On the one hand, she managed to get it to duplicate her beloved chocolate-peanut pep bars, so she's got something she can eat. On the other hand, THAT SWEATER. There's no forgiving that. And she's avoiding reading the book her mother gave her, and worrying about her medical situation, and excited about the prospect of learning robotics from Dr. Oggurobb.
Type of CR You're Looking For::
Anything! She's pretty flexible. I'd like her to make friends with people who can help her learn that yeah, pretty much everybody feels freakish at one time or another (whether or not they've been a science experiment all their lives). She's also pretty intent on hacking something at some point, just to see if she can. Sorry, Security.

[i_got_vision]

Character's Name: Butch Cassidy
Character's Journal: i_got_vision
What Have They Been Up To This Month?: You know... stuff. Being friendly. Not robbing any banks or trains or anything.
Type of CR You're Looking For:
Butch is a really friendly guy. Likes to talk. If you're looking for friends for your character but they're not the most outgoing, you just send them on over to him--he'll talk enough for both of them. ^_^

[home_fires_burning]

Character's Name: Sigyn
Character's Journal: home_fires_burning
What Have They Been Up To This Month?: Sheared her husband to make some yarn, took care of his son when Pyrrha needed some personal time. Realized she doesn't like life aboard the Enterprise, though she won't complain.
Type of CR You're Looking For:
She's maternal, and she's old-school--she believes you don't just tell a person you care about them, you show them by taking care of them. And most of the ways she knows how to do that are obsolete here, so that leaves... not a lot.

Want to learn some magic, or deal with inner demons in a very safe space? She can do that. Hear the dark secrets of the universe from someone who knows, and won't sugarcoat it? She can do that too. (the secrets of her world's universe, anyway. If yours doesn't involve Norse gods, it's likely different)

She can also teach the various domestic arts of her people's time and place, if you're into really low-tech clothing production. Get together with Pyrrha, and you can get yourself a custom outfit made of sheep!loki's wool--now that's a little awkward, when put that way.

[just_be_quiet]

I just think this would be fun CR as Andrew would be fascinated by her. Plus I get the impression Sigyn might make Andrew realize how far from home he really is.

He's one of the new comers this July.

[just_be_quiet]

Character's Name: Andrew McKee
Character's Journal: just_be_quiet
What Have They Been Up To This Month?: He's new as of this July app period.
Type of CR You're Looking For::
I am up for anything. Andrew is NOT going to be a happy camper. At least he has Bernie?

/late to the party

[empathic_pathfinder]

Character's Name: Terzen T'Karr
Character's Journal: empathic_pathfinder
What Have They Been Up To This Month?: Mostly helping out the crew with what little he's allowed to do. Not complaining about the restrictions etc. He's been spending off hours in Ten Forward in case newbies want to bug him! :D It's here for anyone interested.
Type of CR You're Looking For:: Anything, anyone. Come bug the half-Betazoid. He won't bite.
