OOC Story Hooks and RP Notes


This is an OOC setion provided for anyone who is interested in Simming with Leland and looking for a way to incorporate him into your writing. A quick note: Leland is prickly and more than a little arrogant - His writer is not! I'm happy to write with anyone, anywhere, anytime. But do be aware that Leland is a challenging person to get to know and tends to challenge others he interacts with. Please do take a chance on him! He's worth it !

Story Hooks:

  • "A Diplomatic Solution": This is the most obvious way to run into Leland, of course. He is a diplomat after all... Things to note: Leland takes a very hard line during most negotiations preferring a "peace through strength" approach. This could make him useful if you want a foil for another, more peaceful viewpoint.
  • "Tough Love": If you need someone to tell you some hard truths about your character, Leland is very insightful and tends to shoot very straight about things if he can (i.e: Outside of diplomatic duties).
  • "Drinking Buddy": The stresses of his duty posting and past childhood demons tend to lead Leland to the crew lounge quite often for a drink. He's often sitting alone reading if anyone is interested in conversation.
  • "The Man You Love To Hate": If your character needs a rival or just someone who generally annoys them, Leland can serve that function. PLEASE NOTE: I don't want this to be ALL Leland means to the ship, so use this option sparingly please... That being said Leland has a great distrust of any alien species with a more militaristic bent (Klingons, Andorians, etc.) so if you need someone to bicker with, he's your man.
  • "The Chewy Nougat Center": Maybe you like a challenge? At the end of the day Leland is not a bad guy. His snarkiness and general arrogance are more a product of his past than anything else. My goal is to see him grow. If you don't mind chiseling away at him for a bit, he could develop into a surprisingly good friend or romantic interest.
  • "The Bishop Sessions": Are you a Med Officer or Ship's Counselor? Leland provides a wealth of psychological issues for you to play with! Leland is also NOT one of those officers who "hates counselors and doctors" (a common trope for some reason), he kind of likes sitting down and messing with them if he can.

More to come as I think of things!
