Also known as Jeni Makes Her Official Move to Return to the RP/WAIT THAT GIRL ISN'T DEAD HOLY CRAP. (Also, posting here because of Kazz. If this is wrong, blame Kazz. Also, I would not be apping unless I was certain I could be fully involved and active... also Kazz has my phone number and the ability to Navi me into constant activity, so that is not a concern whatsoever. XD)

What's your character's personality like? Write a paragraph or two of general info about your character.
> Scout likes to be doing something at all times, despite an underlying laziness that keeps her from doing great things at all times. Very excitable and eager, she tends to get gung-ho over something or other only to rush off to the next thing to catch her fancy at the drop of a hat. However, she does have a strong common sense, so she knows when she needs to buckle down and be serious despite her tendency towards frivolity. On top of that, Scout has found dabbling in mechanics to be a constant; she won’t sit down and focus on it 24/7, but it’s her standard default interest when there’s nothing new to get absorbed in, and she’s gotten to the point where she’s handy enough to do some simple repairs on cars, extreme gears and airplanes (at least, she THINKS she can handle airplanes at this point. It’s what she told Pilot, anyway.). She isn’t what you’d call a highly educated individual, but she’s got a good head on her shoulders. At her heart she’s an eager-to-please sort of person, yet she always speaks her mind no matter what- she’ll want to make you smile but she won’t lie to you to make it that way. Possibly because of that sarcasm can escape her sometimes. A little brash and loud, ‘tomboy’ wouldn’t be an inaccurate descriptor, although more due to her attitude and less due to an allergy to girliness (she actually quite likes the color pink and baking sweets, although you can’t tell anyone that latter one).

Years of babysitting a group of rather active children (comprised of Astrid, Rodolf and Mako’s younger siblings) has given her a sense of responsibility towards those younger than her… as well as a hearty appreciation for their conniving ways and simultaneously an immunity and a nagging dread towards glitter. It’s possible that their endless play-adventuring inspired her to pursue her own dream of actually adventuring.

Does your character have any skills or special abilities, a gimmick, or anything that makes it stand out as an athlete or fighter? If so, talk a little about it here.
> Her huge tail enables her to more than double her height by balancing on it. Carrying it around also requires her to be deceptively strong for her size, although that’s mainly in what she can haul around with her whole body (so she doesn’t necessarily have impressive upper body strength, but you could probably load her up like a pack mule and she wouldn’t bat an eye at it), and its bulk serves well for tail-based bashing attacks such as sideswipes.

Does your character have any goals, or a purpose?
>Apart from a natural inclination towards adventuring to pass the time, it is rumored that a particularly traumatic babysitting session drove her to set out on a grand quest to destroy all sources of glitter. That, of course, is merely rumor. Exploration and a natural proclivity towards looking for the next thing to be enthusiastic about are really what drives her. Her friendship with Pilot certainly facilitates this, and also encourages her to cater her mechanical tendencies towards planes and anything that flies. (Friendship/partnership with Pilot approved of by Kazz!)

Does your character have an image? Post it here, if so. If not, please write a description of your character's appearance.

I'm just gonna say if this doesn't get accepted I will cry for days
also I drew this so you guys kinda have to accept it

Welp, it's hard to argue with that logic.

You seem to have a thing for having your characters carry Jeni's characters, Kazz. You're just a VEHICLE, AIN'TCHA.

But really, Jeni: it's awesome that you've finally been mercilessly badgered into rejoining decided to pop back in. Seriously. It's been an occasional topic, even, like, "man, I wish we hadn't lost Jeni, she was cool"

In response to the foreword there... I get the vibe that maybe you think we'd expect you to idle out or whatever based on what happened the last time you were here. I just wanna throw it out there that I never really figured it was a matter of inactivity before. Instead, in hindsight, it was pretty clearly that you were a brand new person who took on way too much taxing stuff right off the bat (i.e. the entire ch.3b fiasco). That said, I have not a worry in the world as long as you just take it easy this time and just enjoooy yourself.

Now. Onto the character.

Review:

That's a really big tail.




Approved for wiki stage. You know the drill!

Scout

Nah, my characters' wily ways just force Kazz's to bend to their will, clearly.

In all seriousness, that's a relief to hear and definitely my plan. I bit off waaay more than I could chew and did it during finals to boot. Not a good call. Plus, Scout's a much more outgoing, active character, so she'll be far easier to write/be active in threads (unlike Key and Astrid, both of whom were more on the introverted side and more support characters than anything else- not necessarily bad, just not good for my main as far as it goes.) I just felt awful about that whole snafu which is why it took me so long to muster up the courage to come back, but... now I'm back!

Onwards to wiki-dom, thanks for the approval!
