Dorm Dweller Info Wanted!

You have a character who lives in the dorms. They do stuff. They live their life. They get up to some shenanigans. This thread is for flavour!! If your character does something in the dorms that others might react to or hear about, put it here! This is an initiative that gives characters who would never interact an opportunity to affect each other.

My own dorm boy is Hikaru Suzuki, an aspiring idol and voice actor. He can often be heard voice acting from his room, and sometimes it gets loud if he's doing a particularly emotional scene. People might overhear him the next room over sometimes if he's recording a song or scene, and he's known to randomly burst into song around the dorms and school.

Now, what do your characters do? How could this affect the other Dorm Dwellers?

Bryn is quite loud. They don't talk loudly (and in fact can't talk at all), but they are quite heavy and so even when they try to be sneaky their footsteps give them away. Or, more obviously, when they jump or step too hard they have a habit of making the floor around them shake ever so slightly.

Jeremiah always has an animal in his dorm room. The word animal here is very loosely defined: he volunteers with an animal shelter that takes care of cryptids and magical creatures. So he always has some small, bizarre creature running around his dorm room. The animals don't usually cause trouble, but you definitely know when he's got a Tea Kettler in there because of the noise it makes.

Vivian sometimes sits around in her dorm with the door to the hallway open while she plays video games. Sometimes it's a multiplayer game and you can join in. She'll trash-talk anyone who's good at games, but in a tongue-in-cheek sort of way that people either find endearing or obnoxious. She's made a couple of friends and acquaintances this way.

Drop me a message if you want your character to be one of those friends / acquaintances.

Maddie, meanwhile, sometimes plays music in her room when she's working on one of her songs - and she doesn't always use illusions to hide that she's doing it. This sometimes causes problems for nearby students if she's working overnight on it.

Maddie also has a habit of using flashy illusions to make visually impressive spectacles out of ordinary things like walking down the hallway back to her room, exiting her room, or walking into the student lounge. Other students may be impressed or annoyed by this.

Nathan is known as a grumpy ex delinquent. However he's been showing himself to be a skilled artist, leaving his door open when he paints. He's even been doing free paintings for some of his fellow students when asked.

Shiro is known as a mischief flirtatious cat. However its known that she's been volunteered some of her free time to babysit and play with younger students. As such they've been around her dorm, with Shiro usual using her cat form entertain them.

Zadya loves old school cartoons. She's often seen dragging home large plushies of characters like Scooby Doo and such. She also tends to watch the cartoons a little loudly when she watches them.

Vance the local semi feral werewolf. Has a bit of a bit of habit of tracking in dirt and bits of plants from his trips to the forest. He often comes home covered in dirt, with sticks and leaves in his hair.

I just wanna say I love the level of engagement with this, and so soon! This opens so many subplots that could be delved into. Thank you guys so much!! Of you get a new character, feel free to edit then into this post! If anything changes about the character, add that in post too! (Just note that it changed so we can keep track of how everyone progresses!) I have so many plot juice ideas!
