OOC INTRO: OCTOBER

State of the Game
Welcome, newcomers, and hello again to the oldcomers! September brought with it a new island, and along with it the promise of plenty. You've all been working awfully hard to renovate Ensō - but as much as you've done, there's still lots more to do!

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 October 4th. Until then, a few quick points:

1. Umui. The island of Umui is still present in the archipelago...though we can't say how much longer it will last. ARUM-25 has started to remember something, and once the Storyteller returns...well, who knows what will happen!

2. Nuidan. The island of Nuidan is still present in the archipelago as well! Characters, new and old, are welcome to sign up for tasks and rewards, as well as propose tasks and rewards of their own if it suits them.

3. Storyteller's Absence. As of October 4th, the same day as this month's intro log, the Storyteller will be departing to seek out new islands for your exploration. The consequences of this absence are yet to be seen...but bear in mind, that from October 4th onward, IC contact threads with the Storyteller and Item Requests will be temporarily unavailable. We will let you know as to the date of their return. However, if you need some vital backdated, just let us know!

In the meantime, feel free to use this post as an OOC intro and CR meme for the month of October - 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.

Please talk to Pidge about space and tech!!! She'll love it tbh.

[pidgeypidge]

YES. This can only end well!

[forwearemany]

Awesome, because that's Legion's favorite chunk to explore.

[barberian]

DREAM MEME TEAM god im so excited alex

[barberian]

[barberian]

OH MY GOD, RIGHT? she's going to get cabin fever and be so titchy... please be kind nott...

(btw she still has the rat in the cage she gave her im crying)

[barberian]

god that is so incredible!! i immediately decided i was never going to do campaign one considering how long it took me to catch up with two but the more i catch little glimpses of it the more i want to indulge... also i love ashley's character in c1 and i don't even know her yet, help me,

YOU'RE NEARLY THERE!! WOO

i would love for ammy and yasha to be friends this is the sweetest idea of all time?? i'm overwhelmed. she has wolves at home but isn't used to them potentially being friendly

oohhhh like guzma from pokemon?? god, fuck yes, that can absolutely be done >:-)

[ourcurrency]

WELL THAT'S..... entirely fair. I suppose.

[crystallying]

Aw, Tim! Lucas will still be warily tiptoeing around Wash for a while, but he thinks Tim is a pretty solidly good dude - he may offer to help out around Denny, if he needs an extra set of hands or someone to help repair stuff.

And yessss, drifter!

[flask]

nott cant be held liable for what she says or does

also omg well theyre having a feast sometime soon

[counterblows]

heck thats right BEFORE I TAG YOU ON THE INTRO do you want our tdm thread to be canon or nah?

[ourcurrency]

THAT IS A VERY GOOD QUESTION I'm kind of leaning towards nah cause I'm not sure totally get the mechanics behind it and this seems simplest

[yallstupid]

It's really good, but yeah I won't lie it's very long. If you're not committed (or just plain pigheaded, like me), then it'll take the better part of proooobably a year to complete, lmfao. BUT I AM....SO CLOSE.......!!! I just love all these stupid damaged idiots so much and I'm ready to cry about new ones when this campaign ends.

SHE IS SO FRIENDLY and will grow lil flowers for Yasha to collect because that's super cute and boy i die. GONNA GIVE THIS GORL A CHERRY BLOSSOM which is even cuter since apparently they symbolize friendship and alliance. ;w; ♥

HECK YEAH GUZMA FROM POKEMON. WHAT UUUUPPPP??

[tokenflavortownie]

ahaHA it's not that confusing but it's super dumb. Pyrrha loves it.

[tokenflavortownie]

Oh!!! yes!!!!!!

Let them talk about how great max caulfield is

[crystallying]

'Can't let go of the past but trying to redeem themselves', you say? They could practically start a support group!

Player: Kai
Contact: kairpator
Tell us about yourself: EST, she/her, so slow lately GOMEN
Character: princess zelda from breath of the wild @ this journal
Permissions: here!
Tell us about them: zelda is a princess with the blood of a goddess and no signs of any magical powers or anything that would suggest she's more than a squishy human. she's been living with CT and Wash, studying the islands, focusing particularly on the Storyteller and its apparent ability to bring people back from the dead. she's stubborn, nerdy, loving, incredibly determined, and bright.
Current plans: i need to get her back into things. i've personally been slow, so i feel a little out of touch lately, which just means she's gotta get out there and meet people and get into some trouble! open to all cr, and in the meantime i'll be throwing spaghetti at the wall and seeing what sticks c:
Anything else:

[lesbeau]

oh my god that icon i am enamored

[barberian]

every icon i hve w beau in it is open to you always so take em if you want em

[determinist]

Definitely! Now that we know the plot I'm thinking he might send her a short message to let her know her mother has arrived on the island (with that actually being a ghost, of course).

[determinist]

Excellent! Now that we know the plot I'll likely have him see his wife as his 'ghost', so that might afford some opportunities for CR.

[determinist]

They probably should! This month's plot will definitely afford some opportunities for him to decide to let go in the future, so we'll see what happens.

[determinist]

Yes good, I will definitely be putting him in this month's event with a ghost of his wife, so we'll see what that affords us for CR opportunities.

[tenthstreetbred]

I'm fine with backdating flower hell if we want! Or we could put things into this upcoming event! And ohhh I do like the idea of them having a really awkward meeting in the cold before everything goes wild during the event!

[tenthstreetbred]

SQUAD SQUAD SQUAD SQUAAAAD

Do you got any solid plans for her?
