The Unofficial TV Intermission (Pre) Preplanning Thread
There's fashionably late, but what about fashionably early? Thread to post intermission characters and relationships.
The Unofficial TV Intermission (Pre) Preplanning Thread
Some people are not so patient, I do admit.
This is just as what the title implies.
Showcase and offer relationships to your TV Intermission characters! Each season is full of friendships and rivals!
Remember to consult the info for intermissions and remember that S69 is in it's separate setting to be related to Fox Ridge!
Go nuts! Do drugs! Kill someone for that Verizon sponsorship!
TV3 Endgame might still be happening, but the need and violently murderous need for planning is a desire for anyone!
Go!

Also, check out the profile template for S68! Remember you'll need some NPCs fleshed out with at least a sentence or two, so this can be a good place to think about those folks too.

Just so I can be the first one to state their own kid concepts, I got some and was not aware of this thread until like, twenty minutes ago, so here are some things of note!
Season 68, Colton "Colt" Smirnov: Fuckin' LOUD kid, both vocally and appearance wise. Rather than pastel goth, he goes for pastel grunge and punk style. Rich kid and also a gun nut, he can be pretty nice, if a bit mischievous. Not too popular due to said mischievousness though, as well as his aggressive protectiveness of people he does like, and also having a weird anti-SOTF stance. Has a current boyfriend and an ex-girlfriend that I have planned up, but could be convinced to have them be other people if anyone is interested.
Season 69, Roselia Watson: She's fast as FUCK, BOI!! Star of the track team, fastest girl in school if not the fastest student period. Despite that, she's not particularly sociable? Like, she tries, but it is a struggle. Any friends, expect her to appreciate you immensely for putting up with her. Big fan of SOTF, and she is fitting my brand of loving anime, so expect a lot of death talk from her, fifty percent animated, fifty percent foreshadowing for her going into SOTF. Also a true crime fan, so...maybe a percentage for that too.
Season 70, Titania Zabelle: No information will be released at this time due to my desire to keep things secret for her. The only thing I will note for everyone is that she is a theater kid, and probably had some theater kid credit for being named after a Shakespeare character.

Might as well get my kids up too.
Season 68: Jules Szymanski: Jules Szymanski is an artist in Forest High, who is working on a graphic novel that he wishes to be published online as a dream project. Raised by anti-SOTF TV parents, but due to circumstances from TV3, he's not as vocal, due to fear of being alienated from his peers. He's a boy who is trying to do the right thing and is friendly to others, even if his behavior can be seen as eccentric, though he is still eligible for being bullied. He's bipolar and takes lithium every day to keep himself in check. He is also aromantic asexual, though he keeps this private towards others that he trust, since he doesn't wish to feel the odd one out. Can have a platonic partner be involved, and could use friends. Will introduce you to his tunes, such as Tally Hall, The Living Tombstone, and even Jonathan Coulton.
Season 69: Valente Lozano: Valente Lozano is a wannabe influencer with a podcast and livestream channel. Keeps up a toxic nostalgic act to play into the wish for less jaded times, but it's a facade to conceal that he's emotionally disconnected and jaded from the world and became desensitized to violence and harm of others. Has friends and will most likely hang out with other fame-hungry or influencer type characters, though he will hate the guts of the latter. Needs a girlfriend that he can pretend to care for, when in reality, he sees her as pointless. Has a sardonic sense of humor and might have rivals. Advice: Never meet your heroes.
Season 70:
- Haven Szymanski: Haven Szymanski is the non-binary sibling of Jules Szymanski. While their behavior will change dramatically, depending on choices made in S68, their S70 info will be kept in the dark for now. In S68, Haven is a year younger than Jules. They are more vocally anti-SOTF and is a part of both the LGBT+ club and the anti-SOTF club. They are more sociable, though they will still have enemies from their views. Will wear colorful clothing related to video games and other pop culture, due to their status as a geek. Friends are needed, though Haven can have a boyfriend or girlfriend.
- Vincent Talbott: Vincent Talbott is a boy the same age as Jules in S68, who wants to be a magician, doing and practicing magic acts at school. He is seen as upper-middle class, though it's mostly because his parents work at a department store outside of Fox Ridge. Interested in both vampires and magic, even having a vampire magician outfit for some of his acts. While he failed to get himself as student council president, he is still seen as popular for his looks and socialization. He's openly homosexual, though during the events of S68, he has underwent a bad breakup with his ex-boyfriend, leaving him moody and spiritually disillusioned and confused. His connection with Jules comes from him being seen as a friend and due to his relation with the LGBT+ club that Haven attends. He did have romantic interest in Jules, though the latter informed Vincent of his lack of romantic interest. Needs a boyfriend in S68 badly and friends, especially the ex-boyfriend that he hates.

It's so hard when your on your own
You might fall into the Forbidden Zone
You might fall into the Forbidden Zone
I have...an idea, open to all :0 specifically, for Season 69 - here it is:
I've been having a bit of trouble thinking of a character to go with for that version, and for that reason, I've decided to make a character for other characters - namely, a character who will start her concept phase as a supporting character in other character's stories.
need a girlfriend? a childhood friend? a crush? a rival? someone to beat in volleyball? someone to lend you a pen in class? you can use her! message me on the board, or on Discord, and let me know if you're interested!
however, there are two caveats for this character:
1) she can't be an essential character to your character, ie a character so crucial to the foundation of your character that removing her would mean having to rewrite the profile. she's just there in the world, she's not a structural wall.
2) no influencer stuff - i get that that's a thing The Kids do nowadays but i'm...slightly older now, and do not relate enough to be able to write that. nothing major, just a notable thing to note
i'm not nearly organized enough to keep this list private, so here is what I have so far that I'll port to any future versions of this thread:
* Valente Lozano (Deblod100) - Girlfriend (?)
* Unnamed Boy (NoLife42069) - Friend
* Roselia Watson (Random) - Friend/Running Buddy

Tamarisk Allen
"We're friends, and friends stay together to the end, right?"
Tamarisk Allen—or, as she prefers to be known, "Risk"—is a girl with her head in the clouds. Or, well, it would be if it wasn't for her short stature. An eccentric to the letter, she's a fan of everything media, from movies about Prohibition gangsters to shōnen anime to SOTF-TV. A firm believer in the power of friendship, she gravitates to tales of allies banding together to rise above their station.
This ideology, of course, led her to her current obsession: Fisk Bateman and the Respects. She rooted for them all season and wrote letters to the executives to allow them to win as a team, but it was all for naught—one by one, the dominos fell. When it came time for Fisk to die, she was so distraught that she turned off the TV and refused to acknowledge the death for weeks.
Currently, Risk has something of a reputation as the school's resident oddball. Despite her attempts at shining positivity, Risk comes off as awkward and weird, and inside, she's got doubts about her self-worth. As a result, she can become clingy around those she cares about, hanging onto their every word like a life raft. Despite that, she's a big dreamer with bigger plans.
Stryker Williams
"Now, I'm going to take my first step towards greatness."
Stryker Williams is the best around, and he knows it. A star athlete, he's the son of a coach—and his father is determined to raise an athletic star worthy of a Super Bowl ring. Despite this, Stryker's eye has always been on another prize: taking the top spot in America's most popular show. A fan of the show, Stryker's the type of person to leap into the arms of the casting crews, hoping to be the first pick—number one.
In addition to his athletic and media interests, Stryker gravitates to traditionally masculine, rugged hobbies. He's an avid rock climber who dreams of scaling the world's highest peaks, of touching the sky. With a history of wood-carving, Stryker knows his way around a knife. And he drives a motorcycle—with a license.
As should be abundantly clear, Stryker tries to project an image of being cool—so much so that others think he's trying too hard. Rumors circulate about whether or not he is insecure or compensating for something. His sunglasses (worn indoors and out) only obstruct the path ahead of him. Still, it remains unknown—is he the winner that he claims to be?
Blake Killam
"This show has been my life, from start to finish."
To understand Blake Killam, one must first learn about two other things: his father and the history of SOTF-TV. The son of a crazed superfan, he was named in honor of the show's first killer—Blake Wilkins—against his mother's protestations. His father's behavior would only escalate into full-blown delusion, leading his wife to divorce him.
Since then, Blake has been raised to compete—and win. He's a crack-shot with a gun and knows how to use Krav Maga. In a fight, he can more than handle himself. He's also watched every season of the show multiple times. However, in other areas, he struggles—forced to abandon his other interests, such as drawing, to appease his father's desire for a lifestyle dedicated to the show.
As a result of his father's tyranny, Blake is quiet and reserved, any spirit of independence long crushed. In terms of personality, he's less a doormat and more like the floor beneath it. Blake feels like a pawn in games greater than him. His father was devastated to learn that all his work was for naught when Season 68 rolled around—which made it all the more spectacular that, two seasons later, the casting crew came knocking.

Only putting down S68 for now as 69 is very WIP and 70 isn't even at that stage yet!
Quentin Anderson is a boy with a generally soft, pretty appearance... and a hard, unpleasant attitude. He has an intimidating demeanor and is willing to push people around, but is loosely held in check by a very big crush on a girl who isn't quite like that. Quentin sort of hangs around with her friends but in this way where it's clear he might slip off the leash and be really mean at any moment (compounded by jealousy). He has some friends, but spends more time around people he actively dislikes. Probably does some sort of sports.
