a mini-plot thing!

HI AGAIN SPELLBIND I'M SORRY FOR SPAMMING YOU

Y'all may remember the ~mysterious island~ above Aiminitas! Previously, characters who can fly (you special snowflakes) went up to the island and discovered, among other things, that most of it is blocked by some sort of magical/electrical barrier that lures people in, then zaps them when they get too close. A lot of characters are curious about this barrier, including Jay, so he is organizing a larger expedition up to the island in order to try a few different barrier-breaking tactics! This will happen on Saturday, or IC Day 50.

Mikleo, Tara-Fay, Moon, and Geir will be flying people up there, with Mikleo, Moon, and Xion providing air during the ocean-faring part of this expedition. I'm estimating they can take around 18-20 people between them, which should hopefully be enough to cover everyone who wants to come. However, priority will be given to people who have a) electricity/barrier-related powers or b) powerful ranged attacks to attack the barrier with. Look, we're running out of ideas.

If you would like to be a part of this, please comment to the post with the character(s) attending, whether they can fly (or would need a slot on dragonback), and any relevant abilities they would try to use on the barrier/island. I will email the mods to let them know what was tried, they will tell us if anything interesting happened, and then we can play out shenanigans on Saturday! (There will be a catch-all network post, and people should also feel free to plot their own logs/network posts.)

More of a maybe since he can't fly and who the fuck wants to carry him, but in the interest of throwing out weird abilities! Al has intangibility magic and could try and phase a couple people through the barrier.

He's huge and metal but not impossibly heavy. Particularly strong humans have been able to haul him around in canon, so a dragon could probably swing it even if it might not be the most comfortable ride of their lives. Though the hilarious options would definitely work too!

He'll probably clash with Jay a bit over the plan in general, but at least it'll get him to volunteer.

SINCE ALPHONSE HAS ALCHEMY, a note about transportation he might be able to help with!
