OOC INTRO: AUGUST

State of the Game
Hello and welcome to our newest arrivals! And to those of you checking in on the state of things - welcome back! Last month, you all got the option to learn what it was like to be a merperson of sorts, and uncovered a sunken city with remnants of a long-lost people. Come August, the Jormun will be dispersing once more, but remember that they're always a shell-call away, if you ever feel like contacting them for any reason!

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

1. New Island. As we pushed back the emergence of the last island in this voting round, it will be coinciding with this month's intro log. New arrivals will be arriving on the new island, so be sure to read up on the island's OOC info post! It'll be relevant to the state of things when you show up, if you're new.

2. Network Functions. As of a generous donation from Kravitz (deathfindsaway) and Chara Dreemurr (achievementhunter), the LifeAftr network now has a notes function! This is a rather simple upgrade, and just means it's possible to create and store messages without having to immediately send them. But it might make it easier to draft things and send them as attachments! This information will be available on the FAQ as well.

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

Player: Em
Contact: daisythesorceress on Plurk, daisythesorceress#5185 on Discord. Or this journal.
Tell us about yourself: BST, she/her. I spend most of my time teaching in Spain but I'm on holiday at the moment.
Character: Zidane Tribal atailoftwoworlds
Permissions: https://atailoftwoworlds.dreamwidth.org/3475.html
Tell us about them: Destined killer who was created to annihilate life on the planet of Gaia but turned out to be an optimistic and playful teenage thief thanks to sibling jealousy. Zidane likes pretty women, is pretty carefree and often looks out for and risks his life to protect his friends.

Loyal friend and good listener although he can troll you a bit. But if you've got a shy or antisocial character who NEEDS FRIENDS, Zidane's a pretty good candidate. He's not always polite but he usually lets insults directed at him roll off his back and is pretty good at not bearing a grudge and he'll help you out if he sees good in you.


Current plans: Zidane is definitely going to explore the new island so I'd like people to do that with him. Also, closer CR and closer friends to help him survive on the island. AND when I get down to it, I'll finally do the setting up a theatre but life keeps getting in the way. ONE DAY I WILL DO IT. Also, more people he can troll and vice versa would be good. OLDER AND YOUNGER SIBLING FRIENDS WOULD BE COOL TOO!

Anything else:
