OOC INTRO: MAY

State of the Game
Hello, and welcome adventurers, old and new! April was a month of changes and cycles and rebirth and renewal, as evidenced by the volcanic eruption on the island of Cahypdo and the strange effects that's had on the ages of characters and NPCs alike. Thankfully, by the time April has concluded, things will be restored to normal...or whatever passes for normal here, in any case.

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

1. Cahypdo. We recommend that anyone new to the game take the opportunity to read up on the island of Cahypdo, as well as trade with the Roaka, the local populace, if that interests them. Cahypdo will be vanishing when Storytelling goes up on May 20th, so get in any explorations while you can!

2. New Island. The votes are in, and islanders voted to go to the second option presented - the one represented by green flames and strange starburst patterns reminiscent of explosions. The new island will join LifeAftr's shores on May 10th, when it will become accessible for exploration!

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

There is so much potential in Toriel moming Deku (even though he has a very good and nice mom already). It has to happen - maybe we should make a log for it? And bonus, we can get that "nonhuman people actually are not human" thread too!

[deadlylittlething]

hell yeah hit me with whatever you still feel up to doing, i'm gonna... considerably empty my inbox as well lmfao

GOD WAS HE THIS EDGY AS A TEEN (he stabbed a table to get attention and then ran away from home to TIME TRAVEL bc he's so MATURE, DAD)

also i'm living for your new chara icons

[goat_mom]

My child!!! We must talk. We must Plot

Also omg Arthur! I don't think Toriel and him would get along at first if she knew what kind of life he'd been leading, but she does believe in forgiveness and redemption, so it could work!

Having an Arthur's making me want to play a Western character of my own - mine is kind of an actual scumbag though

[goat_mom]

we absolutely must plot with jester and toriel, yes, we must

i can only see good things from this

[goat_mom]

omg toriel moming lillie would be so good. she deserves a mom that's not evil

[achievementhunter]

hell yeah, I'll let you know once I've figured out precisely what I'm keeping- I'm gutting most of it so I can have a clean start, lmfao

ISN'T HE JUST OUTRIGHT EDGY NOW BECAUSE NGL I DID READ HIS APP AND

thank u look at how cute they are

[souldeterminant]

arthur had Three Dads and only one of them was any good: a novel

either sounds absolutely gr8 because on one hand he would lowkey totally dig a tattoo, but on the other hand "full idiot on main" more or less describes his adoptive little brother and he deserves to suffer being haunted by same energy. why not both???

HFNKDL the war for Alpha Parent Friend begins. it will be long and bloody and involve driving soccer mom cars into battle

[deadlylittlething]

EXCUSE U HE IS A DISTINGUISHED PROFESSIONAL AND HE ONLY USES VIOLENCE BECAUSE HE DOESN'T HAVE THE PATIENCE OR SOCIAL SKILLS FOR ANY OTHER FORM OF CONFLICT RESOLUTION

precious

[yeenaw]

blease, giant scaly horse, save arthur from a fate worse than TB: consumed by neckbeard

[souldeterminant]

FLJKDD Club I Died Saving Others While Suffering A Lung Disease And All I Got Was Yeeted Into An Afterlife(??) seems to have a surprising membership count here

frisk & chara showing up at denny at 3am like:

[achievementhunter]

mother please one existential crisis at a time

[souldeterminant]

[achievementhunter]

Sorry are we talking about Five or Chara here

<3

[achievementhunter]

LOOK THE ONLY REASON THEY'RE SO NEGATIVE is because they love him and they don't know how positive reinforcement works so if they just keep pointing out his flaws he'll be aware of them and continue to remain slightly safer than if he were ignorant shut up it makes sense when you're five and eternally afraid that everyone you love will die or leave

[achievementhunter]

for hand holding and a milkshake

[souldeterminant]

BOY DO THEY NEED TO honestly asgore u should just pick them up and hold them by the back of their sweater. like a cat. it is the perfect strategy for putting frisk in bad baby jail.

i'd absolutely love arthur with either of your guys?? once arthur gets past the whole "that. thats a gote." thing i get the feeling he'd get along great with asgore... big gentle fuzzy men. i'm also always ready to force him through the morality scales bc that's the Good Shit.

IF NOTHING ELSE magical healing could at least help with the whole "my lungs are bLEEDING" bit, thank u asgore

[souldeterminant]

sORRY MOM THIS IS GONNA BE REAL AWKWARD FOR EVERYONE INVOLVED

arthur knows he is a bad bad man but toriel would throw him for a loop lmfao. she is... goat..... but she is mcfreakin Big and also nice?? also she has big mom energy and he can't deal with alla that

[goat_mom]

what could possibly go wrong

and that is the best kind of CR, this must happen

[conscientiousobject]

Okay I'm on Epsilon's journal but I desperately need threads with Chara, actually? Both with Foster and Karako.

Foster's going to be flagrantly avoiding most of his CR, especially Tim, after the last event. But that doesn't preclude a lot of sneaking around... which could be a premise?

[achievementhunter]

Aww hell yeah, I am super down. Chara is honestly gonna be wandering all over because they need to reconnect with everyone, so honestly happening across Foster is super likely

[conscientiousobject]

I'll hit up the intro log with him then, maybe--I'm not Fostering (....lol) until tomorrow so I haven't looked at Chara's prompt but I can probably figure SOMETHING out.

I mean, Mimikyu is a little menace so if nothing else,

[achievementhunter]

I'm ngl Chara fucking loves pokemon so there's already an opening right there

[conscientiousobject]

Oh, EXCELLENT.

Then Mimikyu is definitely my hook.

Mimikyu will probably love Chara tbh, it only ever likes people who are just a fucking menace both to themselves and others.

[postictal]

WELL. HE MISSED YOU. SO.

ITS GOOD TO HAVE U BACK

[postictal]

hmm remind me who's the one who did the leaving this time kiddo
