OOC INTRO: DECEMBER

State of the Game
Welcome, newcomers, and hello again to the oldcomers! November saw a restoration of status quo, (relatively, in any case), and an introduction of the newest island to the archipelago, Maati. Aside from the tumultuous beginning, a holdover from the events of October, it has all in all been a rather peaceable month, right?

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

1. Nuidan. The island of Nuidan is still present in the archipelago. 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.

2. Maati. The island of Maati arrived in the archipelago last month. As we mentioned earlier, the event scheduled for Maati has been pushed back to occur mid-December. Those new to the game still have until December 10th to sign up for this new event. Please note: as this event includes a chance of death, we will not be allocating anyone into the event unless they opt in. For those who have not opted in, no worries - we'll have something for you to do as well!

3. New Mod. Lastly and most importantly, we are very pleased to announce that we have a new addition to our mod team! As our workload has increased, we want to continue giving our lovely playerbase the time and focus that you all deserve. Thus, we would like you to extend a very warm welcome to Ruka (player of the Knight at lightlessfuture), who has agreed to join the LifeAftr mod team. You've already seen her chipping in here and there - she was the lovely contributor to the illustrations on the Search Requests page, as well as the sigils corresponding to Maati. She'll be helping us with metaplot and NPCs, as well as general maintenance!

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

Player: Redd
Contact: pokerap | Discord: pokerap#0934 (Let me know here if you're adding me on either so I know who you are and who you play!)
Tell us about yourself: She/her and I'm in EST, but I tend to stay up late. I'm pretty shy and bad at initiating conversations, but I always love chatting about CR and fandoms and stuff!! My plurk is primarily about RP, though sometimes RL stuff comes up. It'll always be marked accordingly! I'm also brand new to Lifeaftr so I'm still figuring everything out, haha!
Character: Yeager (scythegun)
Permissions: Here! There isn't anything super important you need to fill out or anything, but there is a slim chance that some of Yeager's threads may involve mentions of suicidal ideation/suicide. It's not super likely though, since he's an expert at ignoring his problems and never addressing them, so.
Tell us about them: Yeager is the leader of Leviathan's Claw, a guild that specializes in selling dangerous weapons and assassinations. It's rumored that he killed the previous boss to get the position, so he's definitely not a nice man. With that said, he doesn't act like you'd expect - he's flippant, annoying, and laid-back, never showing anything other than mild amusement. He doesn't seem to care about anything or anyone, and he just sort of does whatever the hell he wants at any given moment, and usually "what he wants" is definitely not going to be nice for anyone else. He can be relatively easy to get along with if you don't mind his awful sense of humor, but he's a pain in the ass. He also enjoys fighting and has an incredibly stupid weapon that's part giant scythe, giant rifle, sword, crossbow, and shield. It's dumb. On a slightly more positive note, he has two daughters! They're also his bodyguards because of course they are. But hey at least he isn't completely terrible, right??? He also has an incredibly thick German accent, so there's that too.
Current plans: Yeager's just arriving, so really anything goes! I've signed him up for the event as well! But really, I'm here for positive or negative CR of any sort, Yeager's going to be blatantly ignoring any problems he may or may not have about being here and... everything that happened recently back home tbh so he'll totally be here for getting to know people. He's very outgoing, so even if your character isn't the sort to approach strangers, we can definitely make something work!
Anything else: Unfortunately I don't have any stupid gifs on hand so pretend something is here or something!!

i have no idea if they'll get along but i love vesperia so much i gotta throw myself at u!! ren also does whatever the hell she wants and ignores her problems, albeit in a less violent way. they might get along. she won't even understand his humor!! it'll be great.

Oh my god this sounds amazingly dumb. I am so here for this?? Ignoring your problems is always a totally legit strategy and not at all going to end poorly!! I'm not familiar with Ren's canon, but I'm absolutely here to see where CR goes!!
