APRIL PLOT POST
|
PLOT POST - April Welcome to our April 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 -Happy Spring! Our pages should now be up to date including our FAQ guide, our AC page, our regains page, our world changes page, etc. Thank you for your patience with us while we worked on these updates! -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. -In addition, please be aware that a regain is only eligible for AC if it has been approved by us in the current AC month! Even if it's a backdated thread if the memory is triggered in the current month and receives an approval comment from us this will count! However, regains that are not approved by us are not eligible for AC and will count as a strike. Please be sure to turn your regains in early to ensure they are reviewed prior to AC! -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 1st-7th Spring break for all Recollé schools 3rd Event log at 9PM EST 28th EMP 31st AC Due see our calendar for a look at upcoming dates this month and further! WORLD CHANGES • We are very close to several world changes coming through! Stay tuned. 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. Players may also contribute points toward bringing back world patches representing their canons that other players may explore outside of the city! Please see the world changes page for more information. Of note: players are allowed to help contribute to buying world changes not from their own canon. Players may donate up to 500 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 Some of you may have heard the stories about the city of Recollé and how things are seen in multiple layers. Those on the app are capable of seeing and experiencing phenomenons those off of Retrospec cannot and this includes some more dangerous and whimsical effects. This month, the city and all four regions (Pesgare, Respatrum, Bosuma and Magatus) will be under the effects of several forms of magic. Characters will find that in all regions they will be subjected to different experiences that may linger and even impact them all the way back into the city. -In Pesgare, the whole city will be suffering the aftermath of a tsunami and they will request help from anyone who happens to arrive on the scene. -Respatrum's fire spirits will be running rampant and thanks to several machines in the underground forges, the entire region will be uprooted and ascend to float high above the sky! Characters will be tasked with collecting the fire spirits and returning them to their forges in order to help bring the region back to earth while dealing with automatons and other creatures. -Hidden deep in the region of Bosuma, characters may find themselves encountering the legendary Swamp Witch who with her trickery and deceit will steal something important from you including your name and your AU memories! Characters will be given a task to complete (something they would find difficult to accomplish and something players create themselves) and then and only then will they be able to remember who they are. However, characters will only have three days to complete this task, or there will be month-long consequences! -Magatus is cold and dreary as usual, but whispers in the trees will bring curses upon those who enter the region. Physical marks will appear and the marks will glow brightly, spreading across characters the longer they're ignored. Characters may become feverish and delirious as they ignore them, and they'll hear the trees whispering to them about their regrets and their failures. The only way to remove this curse will be to admit your failures and either be forgiven or forgive yourself, lest the marks drain you of your energy forever. -Finally in Recollé, an explosion of backlogged mail from November until now will fall from the sky and scatter around the city. Citizens will be tasked with collecting this mail and delivering it to each other, but be warned! Some of these packages will take on life of their own and may move by themselves, sprout teeth or wings and more. The mail will go back to not being delivered after this point, however. Of note, some of these prompts may include allusions of nightmares, physical alterations, light body horror, and emotional/mental changes! These are all opt-out if you do not wish to play with these choices and they will be outlined further on the event log. RESTORATION QUESTS Your friendly neighborhood NPC, Zee Carlisle, has been monitoring you and your progress, Retrospecters. Assessments have been finalized and files have been updated, but this NPC isn't going away. As a hiring manager, Zee will be interested in enlisting several characters for new adventures, quests, and volunteer assignments going forward in phase two. As we roll into a new month, ten new quest slots are open. Players may not double up on these slots, and for now we do ask that players who take a quest must wait one month before requesting another slot (i.e. if you take a slot in March, your next available slot will be in May.) However, you are allowed to accompany other characters on quests if you so choose. You may pick partners to quest with and we will discuss further details of arrangements and more at the time of request. In addition, successful quests will net you additional bonus points! These will be based on difficulty of quest and effort put into the quest. Please visit the assignment board for more information. 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. Please note, we qualify someone new as someone who is new to the game, or someone whom you have not tagged previously! As usual, this regain should be turned into our regains request post with "April Freebie" and the qualifying thread link in the explanation section! As notated above, this freebie will not qualify past April. -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. |
