"I tell no one any story but his own." (take 2)

All right, so.

Since Aslan is basically the equivalent of GOD in his world, that means, aside from being practically omnipotent, he is also omniscient - i.e. there is canonical evidence for him knowing not only about what happens in worlds that aren't his own, but also about people (their names, etc) before he even talks to them. For the sake of the game, this will obviously be toned down in terms of what he can/cannot know about in-game events and people, but just so I'm not stepping on any toes, please fill out the following form so I know what he can know about your character!

Name: Character Name | Character Journal
Race: I.e., is your character human or something else? Can he know that?
World Information: Canon Name | Canon Link (wiki or something like it is fine)

Summarize- What kind of place does your character come from? Is it Earth? Another planet? Have any major, world-shaking events happened recently? What kind of creation/god mythos is there?
Personal Information: A link to the character's application or some other informational source would be great, along with a brief summary of the character's life.
Issues to Be Explored: Since Aslan is very much about counseling those who need it, what, in particular, would you like Aslan to pick up about your character and address? Can be positive or negative.
Religious Affiliation: Is your character devout in some shape or form?
Plot: Is there anything your character is doing in the Port that he might know about/be interested in?
Stipulations: Can Aslan mention any of the above information publicly? If so, how much?
Tagging: Are you okay with Aslan tagging your character's posts, whether it be over the NV's or in person?



Just as a note: Aslan, as a rule, will never disclose any personal information about your character to others. He isn't the type to intervene either so even if your character is dastardly and evil, he probably won't do anything about it. Free Will, and all that.

Also, regarding fourth-walling: If you think your character would ICly know about Aslan (i.e., he/she has read the books or seen the films), feel free to recognize him! Since he's from the end of Voyage of the Dawn Treader, though, I'd rather people didn't get too much into the details of the later books.

Name: Shikamaru Nara | [livejournal.com profile] underachieves
Race: Human [Shinobi]
World Information: Naruto | Canon Information (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_of_Naruto)
Shikamaru's world resembles Sengoku-era Japan in culture but is unique geographically. The world in general contains heavy elements of Japanese mythology, as demons and other spiritual beings are present and not tied specifically to religion. Shinobi (humans capable of manipulating "chakra") are not uncommon in his world, but they are confined to "hidden villages" where they work in service to the daimyƍ and are not generally permitted to leave unless sent on a mission; the punishment for desertion is death. Shikamaru comes from Konohagakure, a hidden village in the Land of Fire. When he last saw it, the entire village had been destroyed and the nations were on the brink of a world war.
Personal Information: Here. (http://underachieves.livejournal.com/759.html)
Shikamaru spent his youth training with his peers as a child soldier, and although he was generally perceived as a lazy screw-up, he was promoted to the rank of captain at age twelve. Although he proved to be a genius tactician, he failed his first major mission and nearly got his subordinates killed. This early trauma continues to haunt him. On another mission, when he was sixteen, his mentor was killed while he watched helplessly. He hunted down the immortal murderer, Hidan, and executed his revenge by blowing Hidan into pieces and burying him alive in the woods near his home, where Shikamaru could be assured the grave would be guarded by his descendants for centuries to come. Unfortunately, not too long after that, the entire village was annihilated and Shikamaru was pulled into a different world where his memories were erased and replaced with entirely new memories of a life in which Hidan was his older brother. It gets complicated from there.
Issues to Be Explored: Shikamaru's fatal flaw lies in his intelligence. He's noted often as the most intelligent person in his village, but that comes with an awareness of his surroundings that makes life nearly unbearable. When something goes wrong, he sees exactly how he could have and failed to prevent it. When he is helpless to stop something, he seeks to escape from the pain of having to stand by and watch it happen. And when he knows the answer to a problem, but knows also that it's morally reprehensible, he must wrestle with his conscience to decide what must be sacrificed. Because of his willingness to take the most logical path regardless of morality, he also comes off as heartless.
Religious Affiliation: He explicitly states that he does not believe in a god; he believes in the Will of Fire (http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Will_of_Fire). However, he comes from a world where things like mudras (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mudra) summon tangible power and Shinto spiritualism is everyday fact.
Plot: Detailed summaries are included with every activity check. He gets into a lot of trouble.
Stipulations: Everything is fair game.
Tagging: Yes, although Shikamaru will be highly skeptical.
