Disorient Express AU Brainstorming

[thedirectors]

Welcome, dear players, to Grief Street! You've joined us for tonight's episode, The Disorient Express, a murder mystery aboard a train with secrets and inter-character drama galore.

Given the nature of the game and application, we've provided a collaborative space for you to brainstorm with your fellow players about your AU'd characters. This is where you'll be able to figure out who they are, what they're doing here, and also what relationships they might have to other characters on the train. Relationships can be as simple as "Character A and Character B are gossip buddies", or as spicy as "Character A is having an affair with Character B and is plotting to help kill their spouse". Have fun with it!

Remember to be respectful of each other's ideas! If you have any questions or want to talk about something you want to keep secret, feel free to reach out at wolfnoir or on Discord at wolfnoir#4990.

Player Name: Jeff
Character Name: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Yeah we're keeping it.
Canon: Fate/Grand Order

Age: 29
Occupation: He's still a composer, but since opera's less contemporary he dabbles more in musicals and mixing classical influences with the emerging jazz stylings. Out with the orchestra, in with the big band.
Appearance: So he's not as dressed up as usual in his Servant self...but still very flamboyant! His hair is down and he wears a nice purple suit, basically this outfit.

About: Mozart is, obviously, no longer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, but he's still a prodigal musician and pain in the ass. Born in Germany his father cultivated his talent, and he became rather well known even when still a child. He left early to seek fortune across other countries, travelling and playing music, landing gigs and contracts and commissions where he can. Unfortunately, the money coming in is never more than the money going out, which he likes to spend on luxuries he can't afford. His wife's taken a retreat due to how broke his ass is and probably because of the extramarital affairs.

He's got his sights on the USA, despite the current state of the economy and the critics' rather...divisive opinions on him, in hope that he might be able to get his big break there.

That's about as much as I've got and is subject to change -- he also definitely met a young Marie-not-Antoinette when he was a kid and has been in love with her since. And there's a Tony Salieri out there in NY who hates his ass.

Looking For: Friends, fans, enemies, rivals, ex-lovers, what have you...I'm pretty open for anything! He's travelled a lot and is very social, plus has been involved with nobility powerful and wealthy families (maybe he taught someone you know the piano?) so there's a chance to know more about him than just his music.
Additional Notes:

[stimpaks]

sorry im losing my mind at the thought of someone in a heavy ny accent yelling HEYO TONY and its famous musician Antonio Saleri.

[toomanynotes]

There’s nothing that making Salieri a New Yorker doesn’t improve

[hefring]

lindy met mozart at a concert cuz his parentals brought him there or something, so maybe at the least they can be associates?? maybe his parents oft commissioned him for stuff and that is how they know each other at least tangently...

[toomanynotes]

yesss i love this idea....lindy probably has seen mozart at some pretty embarassing and shameless moments if he ever stuck around post-gig. and like generally. imagine this guy not being constantly at his worst. it'll probably take mozart a few moments to remember his name but...!! he'll recognise him.

[feminitwit]

hello jeff it's time for the dick joke duo 2 becum a realitit

[toomanynotes]

but will they become each other’s worst mistakes on this train……

[feminitwit]

how far r u in2 s2 jeff

[toomanynotes]

i just finished ep 3

[campire]

Nathan has almost definitely met him since he's an opera producer who's done some stuff in Germany and has a rich-ass family in France!! I feel like there is so much we could do with this lmao... Also he's based in NYC so I hope he's met Salieri and heard his trash talk.

[toomanynotes]

OH YES ABSOLUTELY!!! im so hype... do you think they might have worked together?? there's so many ways that could go from that alone...

[campire]

god I MISSED THIS NOTIF cries but yes definitely!!! he could have been a producer for some of mozart's performances a few years back or something? and/or for one of his rivals lmfao

[toomanynotes]

ok working for his rivals would be SO fun bc then we could have a little bit of antagonism in there...maybe mozart might've tried to pitch things to him and got rejected? and he is like well SOME PEOPLE HAVE NO TASTE. forever petty and pouting about it.

[campire]

LMAO yes absolutely!!! and nathan's just....... he enjoys messing with people and the more annoyed they get the more he wants to do it, so if he notices that touches a nerve he will keep going with it.

[toomanynotes]

YES....WONDERFUL....this is perfect, truly
