Dot's stats and permissions

May 01, 2007 09:39

Age: NO ONE KNOWS
Height: Uh, no idea.  Maybe between 3-4 ft?
Eyes: Solid black
Hair: Hair?  Uh, I guess fur counts as hair? Black.
Medical Info:  N-nothing.

Physical traits: ....Is a cartoon?  I got nothin.  She's small, she's cute, and ... uh.  WYSIWYG, yo.

What's Okay To Mention Around Her:  Anything.  No, really.  ANYTHING.  Your canon, her canon, anyone's canon.  THE WARNERS ARE META WHORES.  If you're at all unsure, just drop me a line.  Chances are, though, it'll be fine.

Notes for the Psychics:  Two words:  Loony Toons.

Can I shapeshift/bodyswap/spit at/step on/etc?:  Bodyswapping for teh winz.  I don't see why you'd want to step on her, but it likely wouldn't affect her (cartoon physics yey), and spitting on her.... yoooooou don't wanna do that.  She's cute.  She's not a doormat.

Kissing/Hugging:  A-OKAY.  (Well, within reason.  Affection is totally cool, but Dot Does Not GO THERE.  Ohgodmybrain.)

Fighting:  Uh.  I... no.  I don't think so, anyway.  I mean, beyond fighting-for-comedic-purposes.

Maim/Murder/Death: ....Uh.  I'm pretty sure you can TRY, but.  Um.  Dude.  Cartoon physics.  Talk to me beforehand.

Emo, Angst, Drama:  AAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA--none.  No, really.  None.

Cooking:  I have no idea.  Possibly, if it'd be funny for her to do so.  But I'm not sure I'd eat anything Dot cooked.  Especially if she doesn't like you.  Cakes could have anvils hidden in them.  Stuff like that.

EXTRA NOTE:  So, being a cartoon, and being a Warner Brothers cartoon at that, Dot (and her brothers APP HER BROTHERS PLZ) are huuuuuuuge godmoders (the things Wakko can pull out of his bag are just... really. I mean.  We're talkin anvils, mallets, a Port-a-Potty).  However, I am well aware that godmodeyness can be a problem for some players/characters.  I will always, always, ALWAYS ask before Dot does something if I'm at all unsure of how the character or player will respond to it.  But this would be a good place to give me blanket permission for wacky cartoon antics.  Here, have some lyrics!

I am the very model of a cartoon individual;
My animation's comical, unusual, and whimsical,
I'm quite adept at funny gags, comedic theory I have read,
From wicked puns and stupid jokes to anvils that drop on your head;
I'm very good at fancy dances, I can even pirouette,
Then smack the villain with a fish, I know my cartoon etiquette!
I can make my face all mean and really give you quite a fright;
Then make up with flowers made of real exploding dynomite.
When in a jam I just yell "STOP" and villains in their tracks are froze,
Then I sneak up and utter "start" and take my hands and honk their nose!
I am quite proud to be in such a hierarchal progeny,
From Daffy Duck and Tweety Bird to Babs and Buster Bunny!
To suit my mood I can call forth a lot of different sceneries:
Like outer space and desert scapes and Himalayan eateries,
From this bag here, why I can pull most anything imaginable:
Like office desks and lava lights and Burt who is a cannibal!
You see, in matters comical, unusual, and whimsical,
We are the very model of cartoon individuals!

ANOTHER EXTRA NOTE:  Regarding your canons!  Yes, Dot's a meta whore.  (Ow, that looks so very wrong, using "whore" in the same sentence as "Dot.")  HOWEVER, I realize (particularly among the superhero set), that there are some (most?  all?) supers who are very protective of their alter-egos/secret identities, what have you.  Yes, she will recognize names (especially you WB heroes!), but being a meta-whore also knows that she knows the rules, so to speak.  She will not blurt out "OMG UR SPIDERMAN" to Peter Parker.  But she might give him a knowing wink.  She will not go all Superman-fangirl on Clark, but she might leap into his arms and say he reminds her of a young Christopher Reeve (and then pat him on the head when he doesn't know who that is).  She is not here to ruin your fun.  Cross my heart.  Please, please, PLEASE, if you have any concerns or questions, do NOT hesitate to approach me in IRC or in a an OOC comment somewhere.  The last thing I want to do is step on toes.

SUPER-DUPER XTRA SPECIAL NOTE FOR FURUBA CAST:  Okay.  So here's the thing.  Dot is not human.  She's not even humanoid.  She is... uh.  No one knows, really, but so far in camp she's been compared to a dog and a monkey.  (Dog jokes are common in canon, which is understandable, since the Warners do look rather dog-like.)  There's even a song devoted to all the things that the Warners could be, but doesn't answer the question conclusively, but the animals included are dogs, cats, bunnies, penguins, horses, skunks, dinosaurs, insects (bugs, bees, fleas), electric eels, seals, until coming to the following "conclusion":

Hey, wait a minute, I've got it now! 
You do?  
Yes I doooo!
We're not bees
And we're not cats
Or bugs or horses or things like that
What we are is clear and absoluuuuute!
What we are, dear doctor...
IS CUTE.

Taking into consideration her...um, "animal-ness" (and cartoon physics), I can't see why Dot would trigger the curse, since the various Juunishi get accosted by their respective animals without incident.  The exception to this would be Shigure, because Shigure-mun likes crack, and there are, like I said, dog jokes in Animaniacs canon (which is also why Dot is stalking rather fascinated with Shigure).  This is, of course, just my take on things, but I invite the cast to chime in if they think my take on this is problematic.
