Dear newest recruit, We are happy to inform you that your application to work with us here at MIRA HQ has been accepted.

We're so happy that you could join us on such an amazing adventure, and we look forward to seeing you at the HQ. Don't mess this up, - [REDACTED], MIRA

[OOC BELOW!!!!] Hello all!! Blog mod speaking. Welcome to my silly Among Us OC blog!! This will be about my OCs / headcanons for the Among Us universe, and probably won't delve too deep into canon stuff like the show. (Though you're welcome to mention the events of the show in asks!!)

The general timeline of this is set BEFORE the influx of impostors caused the HQ to be evacuated. But, this doesn't mean you can't do asks based around different timelines!! Idm, just please clarify!

GENERAL BLOG INFO

The main 2 OCs the lore will be focusing on are Cherri and Fern. I'll still post about the other characters / you're welcome to ask about the others, but I will be mainly focusing on asks / lore for those 2.

ALL of the characters I will roleplay as are my OCs.

Story's POV is that of a new intern of MIRA and how they are adjusting to their job. They're unnamed and are an empty vessel for y'all to act with! (Though other rp blogs are 100% welcome to rp as their designated character instead!)

I am uncomfortable with NSFW stuff, so please refrain from asking about stuff like that. (OC x OC & Selfshipping are welcome, but keep it SFW folks!)

HEADCANONS FOR THE AMONG US UNIVERSE!

I am a 100% firm believer that among us crewmates have hair/fur and you CANNOT tell me otherwise. /hj/nsrs (in the official show there's a bit where one character ruffles another character's hair)

Impostors have 3 subspecies; shapeshifters (has ability to shapeshift), phantoms (has the ability to go invisible), and vipers (has strong acidic venom that dissolves victims). All of these subspecies come from genetic mutations which worked to improve their hunting, thus leading to their more prevalent roles in society.

Shapeshifters do not need a host to control like the other types of impostors, rather, they rely on their ability to mimic the appearances of other crewmates.

Each planet that crewmates inhabit have some form of protective barriers that make sure that impostors cannot get in or out of said planet via ships. This is why, when all tasks are completed, the impostors lose. (assuming that all tasks being completed means that the ship arrives at its designated location)

Despite these barriers, however, some impostors do occasionally manage to sneak in, whether that be via transported Ore+ (impostor eggs) or other impostors who have been already inhabiting the planet alongside crewmates.

I think that's it for right now,,, I'll probably update this list as I think of more.
