TLV - Fourth Wall Permissions

FOURTH WALL PERMISSIONS


What is Fourth Walling?
Having characters from so many universes, it's hard to determine which pop culture references are acceptable, and which are not. For example, everybody knows Star Wars. It's a pretty famous series, endlessly quotable, with a lovable cast of characters. But once these characters cease to become fictions for others in the game, we can run into problems. How much can you, John Smith, know about Luke Skywalker? What is acceptable to tell him (or to even know about him), and what isn't? Some characters are avid pop culture nuts, and it would be helpful to let them know what they can and can't know about your character-- if anything at all!

While we expect there to be 4th Walling for characters of certain series, please be respectful of other players' wishes.

Last updated: 11/8/11

[identity profile] frickinbaretta.livejournal.com 2011-09-10 01:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Freddy Newendyke / Mr Orange
Series: Reservoir Dogs
Fourth Wall? Heeheehee he's going to Fourth Wall anybody he can, so please feel free to do the same to him as long as it's feasible your muse could have seen the movie. Misplaced recognition from OTHER movies is always encouraged as well.
Restrictions: Aside from revealing that niggling detail that BOTH Marvin and White probably died at the end (since that's...kind of what his deal was all about) there are none; he's from pretty close to the end, so there's not much you could spoil.
Additional Notes: None I can think of!

[identity profile] can-has-vodka.livejournal.com 2011-09-10 07:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Arkady
Series: FreakAngels
Fourth Wall? Sure!
Restrictions: none
Additional Notes: Your character must have had Internet access contemporary to 2010/2011 or thereafter, or have Access To Secret Knowledge, to Ride this Fourthwall.

[identity profile] yeahscience.livejournal.com 2011-09-11 08:34 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Jesse Pinkman
Series: Breaking Bad
Fourth Wall? I'd rather not, but I also think it's pretty unlikely that anyone on the Barge will have seen the show.
Restrictions: N/A
Additional Notes: I AM open to ideas, so if you really want to do something, IM or PM me and we can work it out.
terminatefate: (Default)

[personal profile] terminatefate 2011-09-11 01:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Sarah Coonor
Series: Terminator
Fourth Wall? Gently.
Restrictions: Please don't actually state that she's from a movie--she might self destruct. It's just fine to recognize her, or say you've heard her story, but ask me first and we'll have a chat. Canon puncture may result in...violence.
Additional Notes: She was in a mental facility for a good chunk of time, cut off from her son, where no one believed her when she said Judgment Day was coming. Fourth Walling her to an extent in which you say she's fiction, is about as bad as that mental hospital saying "it's all in your head." Not really sure Sarah could come to grips with that. People watching her story for entertainment sits pretty raw for her. Tread carefully.
fearcutsdeeperthanswords: (Default)

[personal profile] fearcutsdeeperthanswords 2011-09-11 03:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Arya Stark
Series: A Song of Ice and Fire
Fourth Wall? Suuuure
Restrictions: Nothing from a Dance With Dragons. Because I am not done with it yet. :c
Additional Notes: I doubt any character would know the books, so it's pretty unlikely. xp

[identity profile] justareverie.livejournal.com 2011-09-15 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: John Locke
Series: LOST
Fourth Wall? Sure thing!
Restrictions: Just note me first if you were to go into the more darker territory of his history, ie the monster taking over his body, death, etc.
Additional Notes: Nothing that I can think of.

[identity profile] waketerror.livejournal.com 2011-09-15 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Alan Wake
Series: Alan Wake
Fourth Wall? Yes, but with limitations.
Restrictions: Please don't tell him he's from a video game, cause that might drive him further into the spiral he'd struggled so hard to get out of, but feel free to mention his books. Since he's a rather popular writer in his world, he's used to getting recognized and chances are, they might've made it onto the Barge.
Additional Notes: Feel free to contact me if you have any additional questions in regards to the subject.

[identity profile] not-annika.livejournal.com 2011-09-15 09:45 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Seven of Nine
Series: Star Trek: Voyager
Fourth Wall? If you like.
Restrictions: Not the books.
Additional Notes: She'll not be amused.

[identity profile] seeyaduke.livejournal.com 2011-09-15 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Ana Lewis/The Baroness
Series: G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra
Fourth Wall? Yep for the cartoon/comics.
Restrictions: Movie stuff is a no unless your character would know it.
Additional Notes: Pie is amazing.
imaythrowuponyou: (Starfleet Medical.)

[personal profile] imaythrowuponyou 2011-10-04 01:30 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Doctor Leonard McCoy
Series: Star Trek (Reboot)
Fourth Wall? Sure! But...
Restrictions: Only for TOS, unless your character has a canonically really good reason to have seen XI. Also, only hardcore Trekkies would know much more than I'm a doctor not a _______ etc, so plz no running around talking about his divorce and daughter and stuff.
Additional Notes: Nope!

[identity profile] frompurelogic.livejournal.com 2011-10-04 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Spock
Series: Star Trek
Fourth Wall? If you do, prepared to be questioned to the point of absurdity. Spock would find it fascinating.
Restrictions: None.
Additional Notes: LLAP.

[identity profile] metallonkardia.livejournal.com 2011-10-04 02:36 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: John Connor.
Series: Terminator.
Fourth Wall? I would prefer not, but..
Restrictions:
Additional Notes: ..I notice that Kit has said it's cool to "gently" 4th wall Sarah, in which case, just T2 is all right from a similarly "heard the story" perspective, if your character is reasonably inclined.
buildindreemz: (Default)

[personal profile] buildindreemz 2011-10-04 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Ariadne
Series: Inception
Fourth Wall? Probably not, but if you have a character who you think would've seen Inception, contact me and we'll talk it over!
Restrictions: Just contact me if you *really* want to puncture the fourth wall. Because doing so might have some psychological consequences on Ariadne.
Additional Notes: Nothing that I can think of!

[identity profile] owenbeatsdeath.livejournal.com 2011-10-04 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Owen Harper
Series: Torchwood
Fourth Wall? Generally, no. On a case-by-case basis, maybe.
Restrictions: Please ask me first!
Additional Notes: Things about the Doctor and the Doctor's universe are totally okay. Even knowledge of Torchwood itself. Just nothing on him personally.
amourpropre: (i never had a doubt you ever existed)

[personal profile] amourpropre 2011-10-04 03:32 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Lucius Malfoy
Series: Harry Potter
Fourth Wall? It's inevitable, so yeah! I don't promise engaging RP to come from it from Lucius, though.
Restrictions: Nnnot really. His last name and wizardness generally is probably going to attract more knowledge than him as a character unless your character is pretty into Harry Potter, but I am fine with it if yours is. Also 'Jason Isaacs?' is fine too.
Additional Notes: Boom de yada!

[identity profile] momunculus.livejournal.com 2011-10-06 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Sloth
Series: Fullmetal Alchemist
Fourth Wall? If you're playing an anime nerd, then sure, why not.
Restrictions: Give me a heads up first. I'm usually okay with fourth walling, but sometime it can kill the mood.
Additional Notes: Sloth's familiar with the concept of multiple worlds, so she'll probably rationalize the whole "oh hey I'm a cartoon" thing as some interdimensional quirk.
scentbombed: (Default)

[personal profile] scentbombed 2011-10-08 12:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Captain Angua von Uberwald
Series: Discworld
Fourth Wall? Sure, if your character would reasonably have read Discworld.
Restrictions: Maybe don't mention that you've, for all intents and purposes, seen inside her head (as she's a POV character).
Additional Notes: The idea of fictional universes being real isn't all that outrageous where she's from, so she'll probably handwave it away as something the wizards are responsible for.

[identity profile] twoton21.livejournal.com 2011-10-08 02:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Character Name: 21
Series: The Venture Bros.
Fourth Wall? Ask me first.
Restrictions: Don't fourth wall him unless you've checked with me first.
Additional Notes:

[identity profile] warrenwhite.livejournal.com 2011-10-09 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Warren White
Series: DC Universe (Batverse)
Fourth Wall? Yes.
Restrictions: None.
Additional Notes: c:

[identity profile] beetleboyblue.livejournal.com 2011-10-09 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Jaime Reyes/Blue Beetle
Series: DC Comics
Fourth Wall? Sure!
Restrictions: None!
Additional Notes: Jaime's not a hugely famous comic character--he's the third Blue Beetle, after all--but comic geeks out there, feel free to recognize him!
ext_990358: (/sighhh)

[identity profile] solicitinerules.livejournal.com 2011-10-10 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Sister Peaceful Warren
Series: Castle Waiting
Fourth Wall?: Mm, no. I don't think there's anyone onboard who would know her.
Restrictions: None
Additional Notes: I just don't really like to be fourth-walled.

[identity profile] lovefornature.livejournal.com 2011-10-10 07:23 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Cassie
Series: Animorphs
Fourth Wall? Sure, why not.
Restrictions: Nope
Additional Notes: She'll most likely just think you've somehow heard/read about the Animorphs and what they did, since they ended up being war heroes back home.

[identity profile] arachnida.livejournal.com 2011-10-14 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Vriska Serket
Series: Homestuck
Fourth Wall? Always
Restrictions: None of them.
Additional Notes: Vriska is pretty used to talking to past and future selves and the whole idea of the fourth wall being broken, so don't be surprised if she isn't surprised when/if it happens.

[identity profile] inheritors.livejournal.com 2011-10-14 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: John Egbert
Series: Homestuck
Fourth Wall? Go ahead!
Restrictions: None.
Additional Notes: Nothing really!

[identity profile] theviralsource.livejournal.com 2011-10-14 05:52 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Alex Mercer
Series: Prototype
Fourth Wall? Depends
Restrictions: Contact me first please.
Additional Notes: N/A
