Player Name: floral
Player Pronouns: she/they
Player Contact: moonlanding or catch me in the game discord
Player intro: Hi everyone! I'm floral, I've been in the game with Ariane Yeong from Signalis for the last while, and now I'm bringing in a second character! This is Noelle Meinhardt from the 2011 web serial novel Worm, and you can find out more about her below. I tend to tag sporadically during the week with more tags on the weekends, but I'm very around for plotting. Other than that, I'm a nerd with a love for time travel stories, ghost stories, body horror, and the radio.

Character Name: Noelle Meinhardt
Canon: Worm
Vibes: Noelle's appearance is... striking, to say the least. The first thing your character will likely notice about her is that she's 8-9 feet tall, and most of that height comes from her waist down. Noelle's "lower half" is a fleshy, monstrous mass of amalgamated animal heads, limbs, tentacles, eyes and the like. It breathes, drools, blinks, and squirms. Here's some fanart for reference. From the waist up, however, Noelle is a fairly small, shy, and sickly-looking teenage girl. The one nice thing she gets in Well is a red peasant blouse with fun, poofy sleeves.

Memories: Noelle's clearest memories are from her life as an Elite Gamer (tm). Before arriving in Well, Noelle was the captain of an internationally-ranked e-sports team. She's logged thousands of hours in Ransack, a fictional game with striking similarities to League of Legends. Noelle will try to analyze her situation, and Well's deal in general, through the lens of a gamer mindset, like Well is a puzzle to be solved. One memory, however, isn't like the others - Noelle remembers a near-death experience, which terrifies her almost as much as her body does.

Initial Plans: Noelle has no recollection of turning into a half-kaiju, so her initial plans will revolve around dealing with that shock. Right now, Noelle is terrified of herself, and even more scared of other people judging her, so she'll be spending most of her time in the woods and in the maze, away from the center of town. She will be a heavy user of the walkie-talkies, however, and she does want friends, so I'd love for her to strike up some remote friendships! She might also sneak into town in the dead of night to read and put up sticky notes on the bulletin board. Please do not perceive her.

Anything else?:

Gamer girls causing problem?

Y/Y?

YYYY

ruby should be a bad (good) influence on noelle. teach her how to commit acts of chaos for fun. noelle needs more fun in her life

[guidemyway]

This she can do! I feel like Noelle needs to learn all the good pranks she can do over the walkie talkies until she feels like coming out more.

[gastro]

ruby presents this all as elite gaming strategy. noelle emerges to get the deets on this cryptic "food fight gambit" she's been hearing so much about

[guidemyway]

Ruby needs to relearn the food fight. Stat.

[anglophone]

Time for Regular Teen Parahuman Friendship Adventures.

[gastro]

they actually make the "level five friend" joke to each other because both of them are gamers with weird relationships to social situations

[anglophone]

Alec finds this codifying weirdly appealing and starts grinding for Friend XP.

[toxicyuri]

heyyyyyyyyyyy bestie

[gastro]

bestie!!! c:

blythe should come visit her in the woods. she has proven that she is cool and doesn't make noelle nervous to hang around irl

[toxicyuri]

yessss god yeah she'll do it. she wants to be a weird wood creature who hangs out with her weird gamer friend

oh my god noelle can introduce her to the concept of video games. not like blythe is gonna tell her to shut up or anything

[gastro]

noelle will ABSOLUTELY introduce blythe to the concept of gaming, it's honestly surprising to me that she hasn't done so already. they should have extremely geeky conversations about game design i think

[toxicyuri]

god i agree a thousand percent. the games blythe would design would be absolute dogshit. she needs an expert to help her... she needs... noelle meinhardt, the games doctor

[kaientai]

Ryouma will continue to be her friend because he doesn't care what she looks like~

[gastro]

thanks ryouma noelle appreciates it c: they can pretend to be normal people together. perhaps he can visit her in the woods and they can partake in Normal Lunch (noelle has raw meat and asks him not to look at her while she eats; ryouma has idk a sandwich or something. if there's fate/ lore to how servants eat i do not know it)

[kaientai]

lmao fortunately servants can eat normal food so, yes, they can have a Normal Lunch!! of course he doesn't remember that he used to hang out with a woman who likes to eat whole frogs among other things but he feels like raw meat is a perfectly fine choice and they're the most normal people here obviously.

[gastro]

oh good i'm glad he has experience........ perhaps the forest has frogs in it and then ryouma can feel right at home

[shiftedshape]

oh my god this poor girl deserves all the poofy sleeves she wants ;A;

[gastro]

thank you for understanding my vision... she will get *all* the poofy sleeves and perhaps a little hat too

looking forward to her getting a chance to meet loki!

[shiftedshape]

loki's definition of "being a monster" is about to feel very silly, yeah lmfao
