HOW MANY PLANS DO WE HAVE? IS THERE LIKE, A PLAN M?

[dousing]

CON PERSON/GRIFTER MEME It's a seductive sort of trade. Trick people for a living. Put on your best charming face and rob them blind. Use your skills to steal art, money, never have to worry about your livelihood. Evade being caught, live the thrill of knowing you're in a precarious place, a hair's breadth from ruin. You can handle it. Are you an unrepentant crook or are you a reformed thief? Essentially: are you a threat or benevolent benefactor? You steal from the rich but do you keep it for yourself or give to the poor? Not all grifters can be emotionless monsters, after all. Or are you perhaps the target? Are you going to fall for it or are you going to cotton on too quickly? Be careful who you get close to. • Top level your character. Include any details you might think are relevant. Or don't. As always, we're not the cops. Which is good, 'cause y'all are damn criminals. • Reply to other people's top levels! • Have fun!

Nora Gainesborough | True Blood

[mendacium]

[this could work.]

Reaper Arden | OC

[itsjustanaccount]

[Alarmingly good at switching on the Nice Polite Young Man smile (tm) and not letting people pick up on that he's actually a snarky and clever little shit. That's just as the default- I'm good for playing him in other roles too, just talk it out with me.]

Nanu | Pokemon Sun/Moon | OTA

[bedarned]

[Available as either an ex-cop turned grifter, or as someone pursuing your band of thieves.]
