[WEEKLY UPDATE | FEBRUARY 4TH]
OOC NOTES
▢ Happy Monday everyone! Good news: my treatment is almost complete so I'll be back to (as close as I can get to) 100% by Wednesday! It's gotten pretty hairy as my regimen draws to a close, and I'm looking forward to being Dimmadone with this Dimmadang infection. ▢ DO YOU NEED TO BE LINKED TO THE WORLD INFO AT THIS POINT. ▢ Remember how in December this post said January would be regular AC, and then January AC was waived? It won't be waived in February. The new AC sheet will go up after new characters have been accepted. |
IC EVENTS
▢ Important for new applicants: usually the IC intro log goes up on the 6th. In February, it will go up on the 9th! This helps break up important logs so there's not a log and then literally...a log. It's hard to avoid with a big event happening close to the beginning of the month, but this is some breathing room! ▢ The jailbreak log is up! A lot of good info can be found there, but there's one important prompt that belongs here: the magic item looting prompt! Players are allowed to make up their own magical items -- maybe something they're familiar with? A funny, semi-4th wall breaking joke? (Gee, I feel like I saw this moon-shaped scepter in a TV show once.) There are just two rules: one item per character AND these items can't be more powerful than a typical Spellbind magical ability. No game breaking items, yo. If you DON'T want to just make something up, we'll make up something equally ridiculous and that will be the item your character gets. Just reply here! ▢ One of the notable IC events is...the finding of Qri! The actual body of Qri! She's totally unresponsive, just like she would be in her big box, which means her body needs to be kept somewhere. As the jailbreak ended in a government truce, Qri got to go free too with no word from the government otherwise. Genette will be thrilled with this info and keeps Qri's body in her apartment, though coven members can definitely visit her if they want to do weird shit like inspect her body?? You freaks. ▢ If characters are dubious about the truce, they definitely have means to be. On the side of the government, coven members causing unrest is something they absolutely do not want. Trying to fight them when they've now observed their powerful magic is something that isn't in the interest of the public. Because of the recent fighting, the holiday festivities are going to ramp up even more in order to try and distract Shehui residents from being dissatisfied with the services they provide. Eviction is going to happen on the 20th, but what does that mean? You'll find out later to the date... ▢ There was also a third archive that could be found during the hacking of Shehui's mainframe. This file will take a while to hack, even with several gifted robots and/or computer geniuses working on it! Details of what they find will be in the next weekly post, which may or may not prepare them for eviction...? |
PROMPTS
▢ Antima has passed its test phase and is now being sold and pushed as something of a publicly consumed energy supplement. Advertisements for it will be everywhere in an effort to suppress magic by any subtle, passive means necessary. ▢ What about something to do for those of you not at all involved in the whole drama conflamma rama of it all? As alluded to in the TDM, Yeunai is approaching. It's somewhat akin to our Valentine's Day, though the emphasis is on all relationships, not just romantic ones. As such, togetherness is something that Shehui as a whole is going to put a lot of emphasis on, especially in light of recent events. Magical baddies all over the place and whatnot. Traditions include giving people stupid/sappy/meme-y cards, Big Food, but also this really cool ID based app called "Bondr." AKA BONDR IS STILL HAPPENING, GO BOND. ▢ On the 9th (which this will be included in the intro log), Shehui celebrates their own version of Black Day called Neyi. On this day, those who have spurned you can be cursed via large bonfires. Throw artifacts belonging to or that are representative of those that you hate into the flame and let your soul be cleansed of them. At midnight on this day, the official day of Yeunai arrives, considered to be the most romantic day of the year. |
IMPORTANT DATES
▢ Keep track of the calendar here! Apps are closing in a little bit, and they won't be open until March 1st! |
DRAGON HANDWAVE & PLOTTING
Comment here with whatever interaction you'd like your character to have had with Geir during his rampage and I'll tell you a brief blurb about how it went. This could be range from "tried to ask how he was doing" to "used him as cover to duck down that hall" to "yelled a question at him about where Bob went" to "got the fuck away from him" or anything else your heart desires him to remember or your character to experience. If you have more questions or want to respond with your character's handwaved actions after I answer, you can lay that down and I'll answer again! COMMUNICATION
Anyone who wants to come find Geir
sulkingafter the jailbreak can do so here and I will slowly poke at those threads. ♥no subject
A lot of property destruction was had. \o/

Geir would have notably not have pulled over any rubble that could land on or foul Julius's wings. At least once or twice he'd have thrown a wing up to stop any projectile weapons from reaching Julius, and sort of snaked between him and wherever the monitors were shooting from to block them with his body.
