FEBRUARY PLOT POST

MONTHLY PLOT POST
PLOT POST - February
Welcome to our February plotting post! Please feel free to comment to these posts with your character's plans for the month or with what you would like to do for the month, and feel free to discuss those plans with everyone else! Here is the mod questions thread!

MOD BULLETIN BOARD

-First and foremost, happy anniversary! It's been a wild year since the game's opening and the mod team is so grateful and happy with the success of this game! You guys have been fantastic players and have seen us through some bumpy and some fun times and we cannot wait for another year and the next phase of the game. We appreciate everything that you guys do, we appreciate your patience with us, and we appreciate all of the time and dedication you guys have put in to making this game yours. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

-We would like to update on the status of plot clues and plot clues that can be bought! Due to shifts in the game going forward (more information will be available in March) we will no longer be offering plot clues that can be bought via points. Plot information may be available to obtain in other ways, however. Please follow up in March and keep an eye on February's event!

-As we start moving forward into the next phase of the game, we would like to take the time to mention that the tone of the game will begin to shift as well! Events will become more hands-on and impactful, player choice will begin to really matter, and we will be adding some more serious/darker/whatever word you'd like to use elements to the game over the next portion of the overall story! More information will follow post-February!

-Due to recent shifts in the playerbase, we are down a few AC helpers and would love to have more on deck! If you would like to help us process AC at the end of every month, please send us a PM or leave a note on the mod contact page.

-We will have an opportunity for a monthly freebie every month going forward! However, we would like to clarify that all freebie regains must be applied for before the end of the AC period! We do not accept freebies beyond this barring specific circumstances.

-Additionally, please remember there is no limit to how many regains you can earn in a month! Though you need one memory regain for your AC, you're free to claim as many as allotted for the month so you have time to pick and choose which one to link for AC.

-While freebies can be submitted at any point in the month, we would like to remind players that per the regains guide, we do ask that the last tag from you on a thread submitted for regular memory regains be no older than 14 days.

-We also ask that players do not trigger their own memories prior to clearing things with us! It's part of the game mechanic for regains to be done the way that they are, so this means we ask players not to have their characters feel memories coming on, etc.

-Please be sure to keep your registries up to date with both memories and abilities! A good habit to get into is updating your registry as soon as the notification from us is received. This not only helps you remember what your character already knows, but it also helps us so that we can judge future regains accordingly based on what your character has already obtained.

-We would like to use this time to provide a friendly reminder to please use your character tags to tag yourself on posts and logs! This helps keep things organized not only for us but for your gamemates as well. In addition, if there is an error with your character tag or you need us to change anything, please let us know.

IMPORTANT DATES
1st Retrospec Post 9PM EST, sign-ups for February's event close
3rd Group assignments and partner assignments go out 12pm EST
3rd Event Log 9PM EST
14th Hearts Meme

see our calendar for a look at upcoming dates this month and further!

WORLD CHANGES

• Phantom Thief merchandise can now be found throughout the city. This means that keychains, shirts, and etc with a fancy logo can now be found along with make-your-own PT kits made up of masks and etc.
• Pokémon berries are now also available in-game! These berries are mixed in and sold with regular produce and can also be found in the wild.

Be sure to check out our world changes page over here and our world regains page to track all changes and read up on our guidelines. Players are free to buy back certain aspects of their canon to help impact and change the world as well, though we may delay the installment of some features for plot purposes.

Of note: players are allowed to help contribute to buying world changes not from their own canon. Players may donate up to 100 points to another player's cause. When donating points to a canon buyback, please put them on the same world change page here! Please note, these are only for world changes and not items/powers/personal locations/etc.

EVENTS
Hang tight, Recollé, you're not out of the woods yet. Though you may expect the dome to come down on the first of the month, that dome stays firmly in place and the sun's hidden from the city until February 3rd.

On February 3rd with the post of the city-wide event log, the dome will come tumbling down and reveal the long-awaited project Joanne hinted about in last month's Retrospec post. While we cannot give away too much detail, we will say that characters will have the chance to explore and their help will be needed to stabilize the world as they know it. Brainstorm your character's strengths and weaknesses as you'll need to team up and work together to create something new.

In addition on the 3rd, characters who have signed up for the mod-run special event will have their event logs go live and they will disappear with their groups. You can read more about this event over here.

Some of you may remember that February 3rd has been traditionally known as Founder's Day in the city! However, Founder's Day won't happen this year and instead characters will be given the choice to help or to hinder how the city is run. More details will follow in the log itself.

Aside from this, throughout the month of February characters only in the city will find themselves targeted by arrows shot from invisible cupids. These arrows have different effects including:

-Heart-shaped pupils
-Rose petal storms
-Intensified emotions
-Flipped emotions

All characters (city-based or group-based) will also find themselves in possession of a small colored stone shaped like a heart. These hearts will be tied to characters and when held will fill them with love for something incredibly important such as a person, an item, or an ideal. However, these hearts will also project emotions onto anyone nearby and if they're broken there will be permanent consequences.

On February 14th, characters in the city will find themselves getting nice and cozy with one character in particular. Characters will find themselves bound together for a full 24 hours with the very first Retrospec user they see that day. The effects above will also be in play and it's all about teamwork getting through the day.

Finally: as mentioned, our brand new NPC will make an appearance with this log and more information will be available in the log itself.

FREEBIE

-This month's freebie will require one thread from the mod-posted Restrospec post on the 1st featuring at least five consecutive comments from you with someone new. We define someone new as someone new to the game, or simply someone your character has never tagged before. As usual, this regain should be turned into our regains request post with "February Freebie" and the qualifying thread link in the explanation section! As notated above, this freebie will not qualify past February.

-Group event players will be able to qualify for additional freebies (2 free memories and a 10-20 point item or 20 points) by participating in their groups and turning in 30 comments spread across all three objectives with a minimum of five comments per thread and featuring at least two characters.

-City event players will be able to qualify for an additional free memory by participating in the log events and turning in at least 15 comments spread over a minimum of 2 threads (5 comments minimum per threads.) City event players may also qualify for a free 10-20 point item (or 20 points) if one of these threads is with a character you have not tagged before.

-For your reference, check out the plot clues/finds page found here! This is all for OOC knowledge, though characters have been spreading the information ICly as well. As of this post, this plot page is up to date.

-Additionally, if you haven't yet be sure to check out the regains guide to help outline what kind of triggers will work for obtaining regains and memories in-game.

As mentioned above, please feel free to comment to this post (and to each other) with your character's plans for the month for plotting and CR building.

THOSE TOO but I'm certain it goes without saying

influence her away!

[personal profile] foeyay 2018-02-01 06:42 am (UTC)(link)
Excellent. I'll keep an eye out for her then. (Get it, get it?) Considering their personalities, her and Kamui might end up hating each other, but as far as I'm concerned, that's just as good.

Hello o o ooo !

Welcome everyone who is just joining us this month! My name is Kimmeh and I am super excited to have you guys here. I didn't have a great time last month in terms of activity because of some RL issues, but now that everything is resolved and quite frankly worked out for the better, I am here to return to the fray.

ʏᴜᴋɪɴᴇ
Getting whisked away for the event along his partner Yato for an exciting and definitely good time that wouldn't possibly go wrong. Since I don't know what exactly the event entails yet, I can't make solid plans, but he will of course be willing to text people should anyone want to chitchat with him!

Or alternatively get snapchats of Yato being horrible.

ʙᴀᴋᴜɢᴏᴜ ᴋᴀᴛsᴜᴋɪ
As the one who didn't get signed up for the event, Katsuki is going to be exactly where he is and able to be made the victim of Much Suffering at the whims of the Valentine's effects. It wasn't too long ago that Katsuki regained his love of All Might, so anyone who deals with his heartstone might find themselves OVERWHELMED by his affection for this ridiculous superhero.

Aside from that, I don't have anything else coming to mind just yet, but I'd love to help get him out there more! I'm also up for any further AU workshopping if anyone wants for Katsuki!

Hello~ My name's Card/[plurk.com profile] birdseed, with Minato Arisato from Persona 3, who will be out of the city in one of the event groups and doesn't... actually... have friends who would text him just to check up on him, probably. But if you're not doing the event and want an in person thread, we can backdate something set Feb 1st/2nd, otherwise, I'll hit up my groupmates for threads this month c:

Regain-wise, he's regained an armory of weapons (can be temp lent out! lmk if you want to borrow one of his weapons and we can work something out) and ten Personas now, so he can hold his own for fighting and healing. I'm especially interested in regaining more memories of him fighting with his team in canon, so!! Also memories of arguments and conversational fails, because I'm going to milk this bad end protag life for what it has.

He'll probably be having mixed feelings about hanging around people and their heart stones, though, because emotions are tough for him but at the same time it's something he craves. His own heart stone would probably be something like a generalized love for humanity? Subject to change, idk. I do want him to throw the stone at someone in a fit of frustration though, maybe break it, depending on what the consequence is. idk!!! I'll swing back here when plot details come out.

Hello!! Happy anniversary Recolle and welcome to all of the new players in this application round. I'm Hana and I play Zhong Hui also known by his AU name Leon from that one Three Kingdoms based video game called Dynasty Warriors. If you are interesting in plotting or chatting, feel free to hit me up at [plurk.com profile] konimi.

For anyone that's new, Leon is a rich foreign exchange student from Hong Kong studying business at the university. He's an egotistic douche that believes himself to be a genius and wants to prove that he's the very best there is by scoring at the top of his class. He's the future heir to his family's technology company and he also aims to be at the top of the business world because his ego is just that huge.

In terms of plot, Leon will be partnering up with his girlfriend Mio Sonozaki in the group event. He'll most likely spend the entire time worrying about her and making sure that she's safe by being annoyingly overprotective. Should any of his other close CR be in the same group, he'll also (secretly) fuss about them too. Recently, he just got his (five) swords back so he'll be at least somewhat equipped for combat. I still need to hash out price points but I might possibly have him regain some of his flying sword abilities for this event. :la

Leon is absolutely available for texting! Gonna echo everyone else and say that I would love for him to receive texts/inbox spam while he's away on the event. He'll be super tsundere about it, but receiving light hearted texts will actually make him really happy. His recent memories have worried him so he would definitely appreciate a chill text. In terms of stones, Leon's will be dealing with his family. So if anyone wants to do anything with that, I'm down!!

I want it to be known that I am very nice to Wind and I am completely undeserving of these foul comments.

How well would a character have to remember an important person from canon for them to be projected by the heartstone?

Hello new and old, I'm Alec and play two characters: the OC Constantine Tarr who is living the goth dream by regaining vampire traits, and Yoon-sung Lee [personal profile] vendettastool from City Hunter that is kinda miffed his father raised him to be an assassin and didn't give him any good tips on dating.

For the event, both of them are going to be stuck in the city doing their thing. Yoon-sung will be available to help with any computer programming, moral support, or buttkicking since he does have his fully upgraded weird mercenary assassin fighting style. He also can be hit up for some electronic equipment or reasonable equipment gathering. As an added bonus, he is single, has been adopted by two cats, and is able to drink a lot before he gets very silly. When he is not working at his branch of Square enix CUBEnix offices - home of Last Fantasy - he will probably be at the gym or maybe even attempting to give him mind a kick start in gun handling.

Meanwhile Tarr will be baking goods and attempting to not get blinded by that burning ball of flames in the sky. He'll probably be able to provide people with such things as food and a calming presence since he doesn't like talking too much, though his business is always looking for new part-timers to help poor Biffy out. He also likes to be at the gym where he practices kickboxing and the dead stare that makes him look scary.

Both will be open to plots and new CR. Just go ahead and either drop me a line here or I can be found over at [plurk.com profile] mwingzero.

Hello! I'm Emmy or Amelia. I'm a new player and I only have this guy here, Astolfo aka Astin Beaufort. They're gonna be heading out on the plot because Astin knows no restraint and has no common sense fear. They'll primarily be involved in the group plot for this month but should be available on the network as well.

Looking forward to getting started!

MIIINIII

I miss threading with you, too. Sadly Ai's not going to be in the event so she can't fuss over this child this month (but she will later, let her teach you something classical kid. And by that I mean piano).

Uh. I don't know what we could do... maybe we could do something with Shuji?
spirithacker: (gray hat)

[personal profile] spirithacker 2018-02-01 07:18 am (UTC)(link)
Shinji's in the event rather than in the city but I need to throw this tiny Fate at your mom Fate.
leaveittomother: (8)

[personal profile] leaveittomother 2018-02-01 07:19 am (UTC)(link)
YES one day she will mom the heck out of him. As the best as Ai can in her current state anyway. Which probably involves the piano.
spirithacker: (spyware)

[personal profile] spirithacker 2018-02-01 07:20 am (UTC)(link)
but mooooom he doesn't wanna learn piano it's booooring

Hello. I'm Ruri and also a very new player. I only have Kirei Kotomine (Kei Shigaraki). He's not going to be headed out of the city, because his weakness is that he doesn't have enough of an investment to risk his life to check out what is going on.

The stone that he has ... well... surprise, surprise! It isn't mapo tofu! It's his restaurant/clinic. The contradictions of his business (both of them) makes him momentarily happy. It's a purpose and so it's something that he loves in the weak ways that he loves things.

You can add me on Plurk under saltandburn.
