December Exploration: I'll Find Another Point of View

DECEMBER EXPLORATION

Hello, intrepid adventurers! While December may be fairly low key in regards to the events surrounding characters' waking moments, it seems that in their dreams, something will have changed…

Player Event: Stay in My Memories

For this month, Storytelling has been adapted to a special player plot, as suggested by Dragon! Read below for more information regarding the specifics, and of course, feel free to use this post for plotting as well.



With some marked shifts on the horizon, the Storyteller will appear to be busier and busier as the month wears on. Is it a lack of attention that causes it? A lack of power? Either way, characters will find their monthly evening on the island of Mu slightly different than usual.

With the Storyteller seemingly absent from the proceedings, Mu itself seems to be taking an interest in the stories characters are willingly - and unwillingly - going to tell. For this month, you may choose to weave a character’s tale from within LifeAftr, or from your character’s canon, at the cost of having said story played out entirely in memory.

Mu will shift to reflect the memory or story being portrayed. Characters will then be witness to these, both willingly or unwillingly, until the story has played itself out in full. Characters will be capable of interacting with each other, but not the memories themselves, making for a somewhat awkward time of things for everyone involved.
A very tired and apologetic Storyteller will of course compensate characters for their troubles. Any memory witnessed during December’s storytelling will be worth two offerings, meaning a total of six offerings can be collected in total. Memories will need to be played ICly for favors to be accrued, as every memory will be public.

And these additional offerings may come in very handy, as you’ll find out in the near future…
New Island: Chol

As advised earlier this month, a new island will be appearing on the 14th! Chol will be added to the locations page in the coming days!

A small island, Chol is currently the site of a great amount of activity. Our adventurers are seemingly not the first to arrive there, nor will they be the last. While no Search Requests are required to see the layout of the island itself, characters will have the chance to interact with a new NPC, as well as barter and trade with NPCs that will be out and about for very interesting reasons.

Chol will see the introduction of January’s event, offering plenty of time for IC preparations and gathering of knowledge. This event is due to be scheduled in late January, and will pose a high risk of death. More details regarding this will be provided, both OOCly and ICly, at the appropriate time.
Holiday Application Period

Lastly, we recently posted a plurk to confirm interest for the December application round. Due to the holidays, we have done a slight shift to the current schedule:

Applications will open December 26th, and will close January 2nd. This means the IC intro post for the month January will go up on January 5th, before our schedule resumes its usual pacing of applications closing at the end of the month. In future, it is likely we will continue to confirm interest in December prior to using this schedule!
