Character name: Camilla Hect ("Cam" is also fine.)
General ideas or plans for the month: Well, first of all, she has a new face PB face! I mean. What. She's always looked like this. (But yes, it is a new PB, not some weird temporary thing so don't feel like your char should notice.)

Uh, Cam's October sucked. Started out of the gate with torture; came back with shiny new trauma and memories of the murderer who killed and impersonated her bff and made her feel shitty and betrayed just in time to have double shenanigans that included feeling shitty and betrayed by her more recent bff, and realizing she had failed to protect anyone she cares about; ended the month with getting her face rotted and a skele-battle that luckily got stopped by the end of the world.

So this month I'm just planning for good and/or light stuff! Sword quests, finding armor, taking a GODDAMN BATH after the no water for a month. Staring like a crazy person at all these plants she has no idea even existed and don't give her a headache or anything, she's just never seen them. Low on torture and sacrificing herself.

She will want to find everyone she's friends with from the last cycle and immediately check on them, especially if they helped during the battle.
Event ideas:
~SWORD IN THE STONE~
Cam actually got a gd beautiful sword first try! She and Pal are going to team up on this one and become the rightful kings of Wellstone along with like half a dozen others, but I'm happy for her to tag along on anyone else's sword quests. She's going to be very happy to have a real blade, despite preferring knives. She'd be happy to have someone whose weapon that is teach her how to master it.

The multiple swords in play might be a good kick-off for the idea I've had simmering for her to start a "fight club", which is really just a more organized way to find sparring partners and teach each other different things, and every so often having events where people can join in and fight in different kinds of disciplines. (Contact is okay; trying to kill each other is not. I'll figure out some way to safety-bind the swords. Uh. Or people just won't get to use real swords. We can have long sticks. Whatever.)

~BATHTIME SOCIAL CLUB~
Cam's biggest (ish) lingering issue right now is being very averse to and a little bit triggered by touch because of *waves at October* (and she's really annoyed by it!), so I'm being careful with this one. I think any snuggling(+/-) is going to be limited to Pal only unless it just really ends up perfect for a particular moment: I feel like she could leave a touch-starved snuggle session with someone she's only a LITTLE friendly with and suddenly feel really weird and even like it was potentially unfair to the people she's close to, and November isn't about that! Angst is so last month!

That said, she will love the bathhouse, especially because I can imagine her working out more and developing a practicing-with-sword routine, so I am absolutely up for threads with emotional vulnerability that she wouldn't ordinarily be as open to. I'll probably throw a "catch her in the baths and open up about stuff on your mind" prompt on a catch-all, or possibly tag in on other people's.

She might try to go early/late to avoid awkwardly wanting to get all up on people, lol: if you think it's funny for her, post-realizing the effects, to catch your antisocial character (or, hell, interrupt two characters trying to have some sexy time), those are things I would play too!

~GHOSTS IN THE MIST~
I'm happy to have her see other people's ghosts, but I've got a few ideas for Cam:
- I've sort of exhausted the angst of her having deduced she has a sister but not knowing her name or anything about her, so I was thinking of having a memory of Kiki show up where she learns her name and confirms they're siblings, whether that's one from canon or one of her as a small child with her sister, or somewhere in between with the Oversight Committee or whatever. (I actually don't think Kiana is called by name in any of the scenes she's really in in Nona so maybe nothing quite so sad yet.)

- Memories from Canaan House that involve who the hell Gideon and/or Harrow are, in general; have talked about this one a little with Becca.

- Conversely, a memory -- could be angsty, could be domestic -- with Pyrrha and/or Nona. The nerds (that is, Dax, Pal and Cam) are working out their differences and putting the timeline of October together, so I think having a reflection of the sort of family they found themselves in on New Rho might be interesting, but I haven't settled on a particular memory.

Are you planning to create a log this month? Yep! Hopefully not as late as last time.
