[[I guess we can add City of Heroes to the long list of games that this tumblr is attached to. So that’s Guild Wars 2, Star Trek Online, Skyrim/ESO and now City of Heroes/Villains/Going Rogue. I’ve just got one character to put in for CoX and it’s music heavy, so lots of videos to go with it.]]
Name: Dominique Turgeon (no link at present)
Alias: Canadienne (feminine of Canadien)
Race/Nationality: Human, Canadian (Metis, Mohawk)
Place of Origin: Laval, Quebec
Birth Date: July 1, 1986
Current Location: Paragon City (on tour)
Job(s): musician, producer, studio guitarist, lead guitarist of the Montreal symphonic metal band Seven Years of Blood
Familiar With: Currently no one, has been away from Paragon City for 8 years (literally, that was the last time I played CoX)
Availability: evenings, always evenings.
Familial: Low - was the oldest child of two children in a family of four. Her father was known as Canadien during the FLQ crisis of 1970. Most would not know this at all, though some might make the connection that there might be a connection between the one from the 1970s and the current one.
Past: High - Dom has been the lead guitarist of Seven Years of Blood since she was in high school. Along with her high school friends, Yves Manderville (vocals, piano), Jacqueline Manderville (vocals, rhythm guitar, bass) and Michelle Villeneauve (drums). Would Know - In the past twenty years, the band Seven Years of Blood has released 12 albums, Dom and the four original members of the band have been a part of all of them, for the fourth and fifth albums (Spill It and Naked Truth), vocalist and keyboard player Able McIntyre was added, then dropped after a murder conviction, since album 10 (Here We Go Again) the band added Raven Running Cloud (bassist, backing vocals) and Marcus Cromwell (keyboards, vocals). As Canadienne, Dom began her career as a costumed crime fighter at the age of 17 (the same age her father began crime fighting during the 1970s). There is little to no connection between the band and Canadienne, though some have speculated, as Canadienne often appears with costumed crime fighters Grey Kestrel, Acadia and Archimedes.
Current: High - the band is back in Paragon City making stops throughout in an effort to raise money for victims of the Rikti Invasion and the Shivan attack in Galaxy City. Would Know - strangely, Canadienne has also made an appearance in Paragon City again, after initial reports she was seen in Montreal. The connection with the band is still not made.
Several concert posters are spread throughout Paragon City promoting the new Seven Years of Blood album, Resist
Donations to local food banks are made by band members
Dom is often seen at Pocket D, meeting people and making connections through music
Dom is known as a bit of a hot head and is ready to “drop the gloves” whenever someone has slighted one of her friends. At the age of 34, however, that has calmed down a tad. She’s still willing to have a donnybrook, though, don’t get me wrong.
Most authorities see her as a wanted criminal
More a vigilante than a hero the likes of Statesman or the Freedom Corps
Has apprehended as many Skulls and Hellions as she’s actually helped. Social workers note that through Canadienne’s actions, there has been a sharp decline in recruitment among the two gangs
Even though she is on the Paragon City Police Department most wanted list, there are cops who trust her and often help her with information (information gathering is a two way street between Canadienne and the cops)
Has been known to actually “save” mid ranking Skulls and Hellions from false arrest and has been seen at times working with the Family when it comes to the more charitable side of the Mafia organization
Availability: evenings and weekends IG; Discord By Request
Looking For: Friends/Allies a wanted vigilante can always use some backup, even when it’s on both sides of the law. Enemies/Rivals: Canadienne has always been more of a Spider-man/Spider-girl like character, so world shaking enemies need not apply. The absolute darkety dark dark villains I’m not a fan of either. Heroes who try stopping Dom, or villains that Dom combats with and sometimes work with is more than welcome. The dynamic of enemies who work together then go back to being antagonists I really love for this character.
Regarding ERP: Not really down for it, as it takes a lot of work and often times gets really dull for me. I’m more action oriented but when in a static RP scene I’d rather chill with friends or rivals and have a few drinks or talk about stuff and things. Besides, Dom is married and has a loving wife.
