OOC INTRO: JANUARY

State of the Game
Hello again, islanders, and welcome newcomers! In December, the island of Chol made its debut, bringing with it dire hints as to the state of LifeAftr for the duration of January. We heavily encourage newcomers to read up on the specifics of Chol as linked above, as this will be relevant in the intro log. We've loved the feedback we've gotten about the game thus far, positive and negative, and encourage you to contact us whenever you feel it is necessary!

Our intro log will be going up on the comms on January 5th. Until then, a few quick points:

1. Deaths. Remember that, in the event that your character perishes, to let us know so that we can take a note of it, whether or not it counts for your character's total death count! If you're having trouble thinking of a penalty, we can definitely provide one for you. Remember to use the Deaths page for Death Penalty removal as well, once that time is up! An event in the latter half of January will come with a high risk of death, meaning that the span of time for death penalties will be significantly reduced

2. AC. We would also like to take this opportunity to remind people to tag their characters in the comms. This is the only compulsory form of AC we have, but after the first few months, we are going to stop warning people for forgetting to tag their character. Characters who fail AC will be swept. An additional reminder, also, to make use of the drop post should your time with LifeAftr come at an end instead of simply idling out!

3. Additional goodies. Newcomes showed up with some extra treats in their knapsacks, to better prepare them for the cold and dark days ahead. This should have been noted in everyone's acceptance notices! Please let us know if, for some reason or another, you didn't receive these particular goods.

In the meantime, feel free to use this post as an OOC intro and CR meme for the month of January - for new players to introduce themselves, for old players to meet and greet, and for general plotting to occur! If you want to chat or keep up with game updates, we also have both a plurk and a discord channel!

Go ahead and use the template below if you haven't introduced yourself already!

Say Hello With This Handy Dandy Template!

<b>Player:</b> <b>Contact:</b> Plurk, Discord, whatever it is you use, as well as if you mind if people add you! <b>Tell us about yourself:</b> Timezones? Preferred pronouns? Favorite dank memes? We’re all ears! <b>Character:</b> Character name and journal here! <b>Permissions:</b> If you have any permissions posts for character interactions or powers, here would be a good place to list them! <b>Tell us about them:</b> Nothing too fancy is required, but here's where you can list things like permissions posts and inventories, as well as a brief introduction/overview of your character and how they're adjusting to LifeAftr. <b>Current plans:</b> Looking for positive/negative CR? Been up to any exploration? Need to get out more? Remember that forming groups is the best way, ICly and OOCly, to start getting CR and affecting the setting! <b>Anything else:</b> You’re just going to use this section to post an awful gif, aren’t you. Well have at it, you shitposters.

I really really want to fix that whole not having CR yet thing *^*

[ichininyaanshi]

Yes please?? My god I'd be thrilled to throw either or both of my kids at yours... esp Tataru and Ichi bc he has rudimentary art/crafting skills and it could either be hilarious or actually productive. Put this man to work. Drag him.

[alittleditty]

I mean Tataru literally sings a song in-game at one point that includes a line about "throwing aside the Scions who shirk their work" so if this is the lady you want as your taskmaster...

it's gonna be a ride

[ichininyaanshi]

OH MY GOD I didn't realize exactly how much I needed this master/apprenticeship in my life until just now

Ichi does have actual talent but he's just a useless lazy fuck

tataru please

d e s t r o y him.
