A former feral kid raised in the gutter, barely able to speak proper English. Through some circumstance or another she was taught some basic civility, and the party has been saddled with protecting this cutie by a Johnson for some reason or another.
Ideally you'll want her to grow on them slowly until it's less about the job and more because she's just a delight to have around.

She's a classy city elf slumming it with adventurers, pretty sure you could just insert her completely as-is.

Maybe give her a corporate or government SIN that she keeps forgets to fake at some point.

Unless this is a "hurrdurr, elves are feral animals" joke, you really have no idea who OP's picture is, do you?

It would have to include her breakdancing skills
>>
>>47294737
The Shadowrun equivalent would probably not be that much different than what's in the manga. You just need someone with a particular skill of some sort (doesn't even necessarily have to be magic) who thinks that said skill is so important the party would be sunk without her... but in reality she's really kind of the soft naive one of the group and wouldn't survive without them. Possibly might not be able to comprehend the actual danger or harsh reality of what she's doing.


As far as inserting one into the plot, just give her a skill nobody else in the party has. Like I said, it doesn't necessarily have to be magic. Given that this is Shadowrun, a prodigy hacker or some other kind of tech expert works just as well.

Sometimes I feel like Marcille is an actually well-build character with a lot of spells, that for some reason also has high charisma. But the player behind her is pretty bad or has constant bad rolls. I can't think of any other reason why her expressive face fills my reaction image folder so much.
>>
>>47296586
Being expressive isn't the same as having high Charisma. Honestly, nobody in Meshi's main party is really that "charismatic" to be honest. The quirky rival group seems to have way more Charismatic characters.

Think of it like this: the more rounded a character is, the more diverse her emotional expressions. More emotional expressions = more reaction images. Therefore, best girl is always the girl with the most reaction images.

A party of Shadowrunners does not treat a naive, potentially corporate elf wanting to help people as a daughterfu if she has relevant skills, especially if she tries to use her morals to dictate what she will and will not do.

I think she is more like a well build conventional character stuck in an unconventional campaign where her skills are barely useful when she can't actually wrap her head around the logic of the situation.

I think Marcille's main problem is over-reliance on magic, in an environment where it's a finite resource. She is a classic wizard - strongest party member with her magic, weakest without.

That, and she's a sheltered bookworm - she knows a lot, but isn't keen on using her knowledge on practice.

Marcille is a your typical "elite" really. She's from a high status family, she went to a nice school, she had great grades. She never suffered when she grew up and she never really needed anything. She's sort of naive and has a very strong idea of how things "should be". She's not exactly spoiled, but will complain and protest if taken out of her element. She's pretty weakwilled though so it's not that hard to persuade her if you're stubborn. Finally, she's a good person and her moral compass is pretty powerful.

AND SHE'S A CUTE. MARCILLE A CUUUUTE
>>
>>47302711

Yeah, the thing to remember is that all the stuff she hates (eating weird monsters, sleeping rough and not bathing, being in constant physical danger) she is still doing. Voluntarily, without pay, in order to save her friend.

She may complain, but she doesn't run away. She's scared and disgusted, but she doesn't give up. In fact, when she ran out of magic and it seemed like the reasonable thing to do would be to send her home, she wanted to stay, and found a way to recharge herself. No one would have blamed her if she left at that point, but she stayed. She's great.

This. She's a well built character - not min-maxed, but very good at spellcasting but with enough actual personality to be a good character. Apparently her player can handle both ends of the game.

But unfortunately, this character was built for the more standard adventure that made up the events of before the first chapter. She did not making cooking her skill, all of her skills are based around magic and book learning rather than more hands-on experience like that new guy and his dwarf character.

A better way to think of it is like someone's bringing an old character into a new campaign, and they just aren't able to reconcile the old character with new new tone of the story and style of the DM.

If I can put on my tinfoil hat here, I think it's implied that Marcielle had feelings for Laius at the very beginning of the story, before his crazy 'I want to eat monsters' thing came out. It's understandable - he's a little low on Wisdom and not good with people, but otherwise he's a strong, dependable character, a good leader of the party, and fairly handsome.

But then Laius's player went all for this new style of play, which for Marcielle's player just completely ruined any thoughts of romance - the tone of the adventure became a lot sillier and more focused on the various monsters and food dishes, rather than the interaction of the characters with each other as they traverse the dungeon.
>>
>>47303800
Marcilles player just wanted to specialize in explosion magic, but then got a call from the DM. The guy that played Laius' sister could not make it and he made the goal of the campaign to save her instead. They now need someone that brings some healing and utility spells. All the other three guys can't do that and won't play another character. So he had to spread her skills really thin, covering everything.
>>
>>47303945
I think she walked the path of explosions in the earlier campaign, but then the cleric had to move in the middle of the final battle (what an ass), so the character became a plot point when the DM wanted to avoid a TPK and basically started the game over.

So now she had to try and take a few levels in healing magic or something, which she did not specialize in, and they started approaching food since no one was willing to step up and be a healer and the new guy coming in was adamant he would play the foodiest dwarf.

CUTE.

God, Marcille is so much more fleshed-out than most female characters. She has things she likes and things she doesn't like, things she's good at and things she's bad at, a way she sees herself and a way she wishes she could be. She's adorable, but she's not just a couple of "cute" character traits pasted on an empty frame.

Low Wisdom, decent Intelligence. He's smart with things like economics, and knows how to work with monsters in a 'by the book' sense, and he recognizes useful information like in how he first cut that mushroom.

The dwarf, in contrast, is high Wisdom low Intelligence. His knowledge comes from hands on experience, working within the dungeon for years, but at the same time he doesn't realize that seahorse thing would kill him once it got the chance. Almost all his ideas come from knowledge he already has or experiences that have already worked, not logically putting two and two together for the right solution.

Definitely gotta be a hypercorp wageslave brat who got her ass dumped into the shadows without any real wish for it herself.

The IMPORTANT part of this is that she doesn't have some dark backstory, nothing FORCING her, exactly, to be there, except pure badluck and circumstances. Literally like, your runner crew should all pile into a taxi after a heist and she just HAPPENS to be there, and is now just stuck with them, or even if she's not, she KEEPS getting dumped into their laps until her own Hypercorp doesn't trust her anymore.

The point should be though that no one SPECIFICALLY is trying to screw her over. There's no evil rival wageslave, no dark backstory, and no choice to dive into the shadows, she just gets dumped into them.

Nobody in this thing is defined by stats, can we agree on that?

Each character is well represented. If you have to be an autist and assign stats to them, consider that they probably all have stats ranging in the 10-12 range, with a few dipping low around 8-10. Laius probably has all his stats within 10-12. The demis likely have one 8-10 and one 14-16 with the rest around 10. The 'people' playing them are all just good at RP.

>>
>>47305801

Yeah what about it? A character that is basically an object is shit characterization, because well, it's not a character you're reading about, you're reading about an object that fulfills a specific function in the story.

To female characters, this usually manifests by them becoming just an object of attraction (typical sexual objectification).

It also happens to a lot of main characters though, when they are just vehicles for moving the story forwards as the author needs them to. Personally I think this seem to happen particularly often in mecha anime for some reason.
>>
>>47305902
Wait really? I haven't heard anything about this. Last month my best friend just got out of a title 9 college rape accusation after half a year of fucking bullshit lobbed at him.

I assumed no one cares about the shit white males have to go through. All I ever hear about are blacks, mexicans, women and muslims. Meanwhile the flipping cunt that accused him walked off scott free, no need for her to hire a lawyer and go into debt, and no time of her life wasted, or even any kind of backlash over the fact she told five different stories in the space of a week, one after another, and my friend had to spend five fucking months with the burden of disproving those stories.

I'm all for more meshi, but I agree with 47305825, america is a haven compared to elsewhere in the world. Part of being so nice I guess, is that people don't realize how good it is because they never leave and plane tickets are only getting more expensive. I just wanted to throw in my 2c.

Is he missing the forest for all the trees? Or was he trying to be accommodating and not insult the chief's wives?

On the Shadowrun subject, a character I personally fell in love with was an Ancient who showed up in the middle of a run. She had a gun hidden in a book, and pulled a grenade launcher out of her purse. If that doesn't get you smitten with an elf, I don't know what will.

Unfortunately, my GM (and it turns out most of the players) had no interest in romance arcs. She actually ended up being a target of one of our later jobs.
>>
>>47306428
Laius is a weirdo and often an idiot. He was likely one hundred percent serious when he was pointing out that the chiefs wives were attractive to him and only became aware of the hole he had started digging for himself at the last minute.
>>
>>47306428
>>47306517

He's just saying that the most basic attractive features are the same for humans and orcs, nothing more.
The only problem is he often forgets that sounding unbiased is less important than being tactful in some context.

Where on Earth are you guys getting the comparison to Megumin from? Marcille's been a pretty balanced wizard generalist since the beginning of the series. The only explosion-like spell she's even cast was much further along than the beginning, IIRC. In fact, she was even shown to be a pretty good student who was interested in dungeon ecology. That's not related to explosions at all!

So aside from posting memes for their own sake, what does Megumin have to do with any of this?

Doesn't she say in one chapter how most of her spells are based around powerful damaging spells, meant for higher-level enemies later in the dungeon?

>>47306124
I think he meant that anti-white racism is the only racism being actively supported.
>>
>>47306428
He was, in his mind, being both polite and honest in telling the Chief that he considers said Chief's wives to indeed be highly attractive and that he's a lucky man.

Then he realized, right as he was saying 'Yeah, I would definitely say your wives are attractive.', thinking in his head as he said it that this was a polite compliment, honestly given...that the Chief wasn't taking this in the spirit he was giving it AT ALL.

Because he's Laius. He's friendly and polite, but also completely honest, too honest, perhaps, at the wrong times. Whether it be giving compliments, criticism, or talking about how he wants to eat potentially sapient creatures.

Marcille's charisma is definitely a dump stat. No matter how cute we think she is, she has no force of personality, no social skills and an awful time with people and animals.

She's only ever been popular in Wizard College where the average cha was 7. At best she's avoided taking negative modifiers.

I dunno, she seemed to do a lot of talking when they ran into the Gnome adventuring party. I think it's more a case of "Social Skills don't work on other PCs"

Also she's used to more traditional strategies than what Laius and Senshi come up with

Marcille's dump stat is her luck, because she's easily the most accident prone in the party

I've only read the first volume yet. Does Marcille keep repeating the "oh no I hate it, I hate this, huh it actually kind of looks nice, oh this is the best thing ever even though I hate it"-shtick?

Depends on the setting This is why I said that we don't know. The mangaka gave us no informations about this. Okay, what we do know is that Marcille looked like this when she went to school with Farlyn, and they didn't seem to be sperated. I don't have a page, but I think they were in the same class. So they both went to this school the same time and probably graduated at the same time, because they were in the same party when this manga begun.

Yet, she thinks Chilchack is still young when he tells that he is 29 and doesn't react the same way as Laius.

I don't really know. Maybe they are childreens for a longer time? She seems only book smart, not much experience outside of this.
>>
>>47317210
Probably there is a sort of proportion made to put the different races together during the corresponding part of their lives.
Something like: human girls 14 years old with Elf girls 14*3 old, and both groups are barely adolescent in a sexual age sense.

Marcille is the straight man of the group. She likes to stick to what she knows and is reluctant to try new things, because she knows she's smart and good at what she does. Also eating monsters is kinda outlandish.

She gets high on magic from time to time and is clearly a bit upset about not being revered (for a lack of better word) as much as she'd like as opposed to Senshi. That makes her a bit bitchy, but she's also shown to genuinely care about the rest of the group, and her magic really is helpful.

She just happens to also be a cute elf.

Her entire face is rounder, her ears are thicker and shorter, they're slightly rounder...

All that dungeon food made her ears fatter, it's obvious.
>>
>>47323156
>>47323132
Those are different angles. Compare how her ears match up with her face, the angle at which they attach is even different and one of the later three panels is clearly more cartoony. Like I said, I'm not buying the idea that this is some kind of trend. At most, it's variation from panel-to-panel. The art is otherwise very consistent as far as I can tell which is why I really doubt what you're saying here.

Similar enough that the rounding and thickness of the ear aren't going to be utterly transformed.
>>
>>47323269
No, they're not similar enough. Like I said already, look at the ears in relation to her face. The angel is more acute in the later frames.
>>
>>47323269
And honestly, the difference is slight enough that I'm not buying "utterly transformed" from that evidence, either. They're rounded in both, maybe marginally less rounded in one but they look pretty much the same unless you squint. Sorry, man.

He'd probably get along fairly decently with any of them, though Marcille and Laius would be the best options.
Marcille for long intellectual and magical discussions, Laius for his unorthodox way of thinking, as well as being a fellow living weapon owner.
He would still get along okay with Senshi and Chilchak, because he loves learning new stuff, and both seem knowledgeable in their respective crafts and trades.
