the HISTORICAL CHARACTERS meme
WHETHER YOUR CHARACTER IS CANON OR AN OC, WHETHER THEY HERALD FROM MEIJI JAPAN OR VICTORIAN ENGLAND (OR ANYWHERE IN BETWEEN), THIS IS THE MEME FOR YOU.

BECAUSE THIS MEME PROVIDES A SPACE TO LET HISTORICAL CHARACTERS MEET ACROSS AGES. HERE YOU CAN CHOOSE TO LET CHARACTERS INTERACT IN A GENERIC (BUT HISTORICALLY ADAPTED) JAMJAR OR YOU CAN AU YOUR CHARACTER INTO ANOTHER HISTORICAL CHARACTER'S DAY AND TIME. OR HAVE OTHERS DO THE SAME INTO YOURS.

AND HERE, HISTORY SPANS ALL ERAS FROM PREHISTORIC TO THE 1970s, SO A WIDE RANGE OF CHARACTERS IS ALLOWED. TO LUMP THINGS TOGETHER A BIT, FANTASY CHARACTERS AND STEAMPUNK CHARACTERS ARE ALLOWED TOO, IF THE AESTHETIC'S SUITABLE.

GO CRAZY AND HAVE FUN!

How to play -

1. Comment with your character's name, fandom and preference in the subject line.
2. It might be a good idea to state whether you're open to jamjarring or au'ing (or both) and what particular eras you're interested in.
3. Others comment to you with a prompt from this ancient prompt table or write a starter themselves, whatever gets those creative juices flowing.
4. Note that both historical and contemporary characters can tag top levels, as long as contemporary players are willing to au their characters into a historical setting.
5. Thread out those days of yore!
