March Information and CR meme!

[voidtreckermods]

We hope everyone had a fun month! Some information for your ongoing journey.

IC Month

This month is the month of Egret. Days can be found here.

The thought of the month is Great things never came from comfort zones

The challenge is: Tagging into other peoples top levels or posts will earn you two bonus points. Two bonus points will be awarded for each thread that you tag into during March and April.

Threads that fulfill this criterial can be submitted during April AC. You may find it easier to keep a tracking list of threads for easy compiling of bonus AC!

Recipes are here. All the ingredients can be found in the storeroom and characters are welcome to make other food with them.

This month's chore assignments are:

Blue: Cleaning bedrooms and passenger areas
Purple: Meal Preparation
Red: Laundry
Orange: Cleaning kitchen and bathrooms

The Train.

As the month moves onto the month of Egret the train will stop to pick up new passengers. When everyone rejoins the train they will find a new carriage!

Carriage G: Greenhouse

Like the garden carriage the walls and ceiling are made of a transparent material. The ceiling is a dome shape, a single metal beam runs from one end to another, mounted on this beam are large bright lights.

The aisle of grass runs down the middle, from one door to the next. Stone paths branch off around raised beds of soil. Nothing is growing yet but there are crates in which passengers can find a whole host of seeds and bulbs for various flowers.

This has been updated on the setting.

The shop has been updated to add energy drinks, for passengers over sixteen. Points have been updated on the passenger roster.

If your character does anything to alter the setting please let me know!

Important Dates

This month's event will be a mission event between 13th and 26th March. An info and plotting post will go up on 9th March.

Reserves will open 17th March with a TDM on the 15th March. Apps are between 20th and 27th March. AC will run 23rd to 30th March.

New players may find it useful to read the arrival information if they haven’t already!

[deductiongeek]

Character: Conan Edogawa (Shinichi Kudo)
About them: Detective Conan. High school detective who was poisoned and turned into a child. Probably holds the train record for longest time holding on to a secret identity. Also probably still smallest child on train.
Plans: Avoiding all those people who saw more in his dreams than he would have liked. Recently rejoined insomnia club. Finding something,anything to occupy his mind.
CR wanted: Everything! Especially looking for kids to be friends with, concerned adults, and people to argue with.

Character: Danny Fenton
About them: Danny Phantom. Snarky teenage superhero with ghost powers.
Plans: ....He's going to point his telescope at the void to see what happens. Also someone told him there were ghost wards on the train,and I kind of want to have him forget where they are and run into them.
CR wanted: All the ghost related people. Also other superheroes.

Character: Will Stanton
About them: Dark is Rising Sequence. Quiet and thoughtful wizard kid. ...Who isn't actually very good at being a kid at the moment.
Plans: Will was very troubled by the dreams last month, but he's not entirely sure what to do about it. Plans for this month are to continue having him process that, and maybe find some ways to distract him.
CR wanted: He really needs some CR to remind him that he's still a kid and is allowed to have fun. So all the kids. Also anyone interested in talking about magic and time travel. And anyone who attacked the train wall. Will had a vision of that, but he hasn't actually met many of the people he saw in person.

Name: Kinz
Contact info: can be found on plurk under kinziekay or on discord at Kinz9265

Character: Aoko Nakamori
About them: Detective Conan/Magic Kaito. She's the daughter of a police inspector and best friend with Kaito Kuroba. She's extremely Tsundere and has a bit of temper. She tends to refer to herself in the third person though, so if that bothers you let me know and I'll change it.
Plans: Nothing major. Meet her roommates, take care of Kaito's dove, keep Kaito in line, you know. Normal teenage girl things.
CR wanted: Anything and Everything, she's new and she needs friends.
Things to avoid: She doesn't know her BFF is actually a thief. No one tell her.

Character: Peter Parker
About them: MCU's favorite disaster child.
Plans: On Day 2 Peter and Gwen are hosting a Party for everyone. Everyone is invited. Be there. Also, he's trying to figure out how to get more points to buy THINGS!
CR wanted: Anything and Everything!
Things to avoid: Rosemary!!! Do not give this child Rosemary. He will get sick.

Character: The Doctor
About them: Friendly Timelord from that one series about time travel and aliens
Plans: Nothing as of yet. Just meeting new people
CR wanted: I kinda dropped the ball in Feb. so let's try again.
Things to avoid: nah

[unfavorableinstigation]

Am okay with Nita being baffled at Aoko Aoko-ing!

Also shop post for Peter~ TIME TO USE THOSE POINTS!

We don't have to continue the Doctor threads we've got now if you'd rather drop them (this month IS going to be busy), but I do like the Dream thread if you want to continue that.

[blue_ice]

oh no there's a club for insomnia? there's a club for everything.

But yeah. This weirdo is probably lurking in places at night because he's not keen on the whole situation.

[unfavorableinstigation]

Name: Ace! Or S.M.F.
Contact info: Am very frequently on the Discord (Autistic_Ace#5045) and plurk (just Autistic_Ace there). PMing is also okay.

Character: Nita Callahan
About them: Badass book-geek who does have a temper. Mostly, though, she can keep calm in a crisis. Enjoys helping people and has something of a self-sacrificing schtick.
Plans: Attempting to understand the train itself better - or at least discover more of its quirks. Also trying to help out fellow newbies!
CR wanted: More friends! =D Also for someone to bug the peridexis (aka the spirit of wizardry that's tagged along in Nita's head).
Things to avoid: N/A

[blue_ice]

Name: Zoki
Contact info: kharamagic

Character: Seto Kaiba (Orange)
About them: Yu-Gi-Oh. Basically some billionaire genius who spent his talent and riches on enhancing the card game experience. Loner with major trust issues. Fun times.
Plans: Avoiding people as much as possible. Eating and showering at odd hours, avoiding the party, finding quiet spots, sneaking in late because he doesn't want to deal with roommates (sorry Terra, Happy, and Padmé). He'll do chores and cooperate on missions, but that's it.
CR wanted: He'll likely go after the Orange slackers. And try to at least be cordial with the rest of the team. Would also love people to draw him out of his shell---kids especially, but his guard's down more late at night.
Things to avoid: Nothing atm

[marriedanidiot]

Name: Tea/Bookworm
Contact info: bookwormfaith

Character: Nerdanel
About them: Nerdanel has the (un)lucky priviledge to be the wife and mother of 80% of the reason for the shit that goes down in Tolkien's Silmarillion, aka the Bible to LOTR & the Hobbit (the other 20% is caused by actual Satan) She loves her husband and her sons very much, but there is no denying they are Stupid Idiots (tm) and Nerdanel basically threw up her hands and said Fuck It (but much more politely) at the start of the Silmarillion and vanishes out of the story like a sane, reasonable individual without a death wish. Oh, and she's an Artist. She happens to be so good at sculpture that people have, in canon, mistaken her statues as real people.
Plans: Nothing specific yet!
CR wanted: anything! But maybe artist people?
Things to avoid: *NO OATHS*

[stealsyourheart]

Name: Tea/Bookworm
Contact info: bookwormfaith

Character: Kaito Kuroba
About them: Kaito is just an ordinary Japanese High School Student, promise, who just so happens to be a magician in his spare time. Oh, and he moonlights (hah) as an internationally famous jewel thief in his spare time. But that's not odd right? He's only trying to catch his father's murderers! Oh and find a jewel that might actually grant immortality. He's a genius level prankster who does brilliantly in class to the great despair of his teacher who would probably like to expell him, and his favourite "Critics" are the genius Teen Detectives of his world, who he deliberately taunts out with coded riddles that warn of his next target. How no one has connected the amateur magician who hangs out with the Inspector in charge of catching the KID and his daughter with the thief who uses tricks that said magician's Magician Father once used the world may never know...
Plans: I know, I know, I need to pull a heist... or stage a Show, I WILL GET AROUND TO IT EVENTUALLY...
CR wanted: fellow pranksters?
Things to avoid: F-f-fish

[stealsyourheart]

AOKOOOOOOOOOOO

[stealsyourheart]

Well I mean we already have constant poker tournaments Kaito is quite happy to play with Will instead for a change?

[stealsyourheart]

How good is Kaiba at poker~

[blue_ice]

Excellent. The game's a little simple for his taste, but he has a stone cold poker face.

And he doesn't have his deck yet so he can't duel Yugi in his preferred game. An alternative works :D

[stealsyourheart]

Perfect~ The Gosho boys could use a few more players~ They'll even not cheat, his first round! After that, well~

[blue_ice]

:D Looking forward to it!

[wizard_redfive]

Name: Meowkitty
Contact info: MKSakura

Character: Dairine Callahan
About them: Dairine is a wizard from New York whose specialty is working with technology. She also does outer space travel, mediation between species, and working with stars. Dairine can often be a temperamental brat, but once she makes friends her unique kindness and loyalty shines. Like her sister Nita, she is a big geek.
Plans: Now that she's had a month to sulk get used to her situation, Dairine will be avoiding people less. She'll be looking for folks she met at Paradisa to reconnect. Also looking into the ICP, SCA, and other possibly connection devices.
CR wanted: Most anything, but especially telepathic and technology related CR. She loves chatting with non-humanoid people as well.
Things to avoid: She'll be trying to avoid Tony Stark (sorry Tony), but other don't have to cooperate.

[unfavorableinstigation]

Dairine is going to love meeting Webmind next month, I'm sure. XD

Given I can't do muncest and all...

And expect Nita to help out with ALL investigation shenanigans!

[flatteries]

i definitely want more stuff with nita! especially with inigo, considering their most recent dumb yet cute conversation. just drag him along as the dumb sidekick in trying to solve the train mystery, nita...

[unfavorableinstigation]

YES~

Purple+Orange teams are one half of the goodness on this train, I love them.

[happyends]

Name: Jelle
Contact info: queeningsquare or Jelle#7556 on Discord.. I think? I'm a technology grandma, clearly.

[happyends]

Character: Madoka Kaname
About them: Most adorable ball of light and hope. Madoka is in her early teens but could easily be mistaken for younger due to her looks and just.. general demeanour, tbh.. She can be shy, but she's infinitely friendly and loving once you get to know her. She also carries an incredibly wild amount of magical potential within her. Kind of like the larval stage of a goddess.
Plans: Madoka will be so happy about the greenhouse! She'll definitely spend a lot of time in there, and if others are interested in trying to plant stuff but don't have much experience she'd gladly offer to help them out!
CR wanted: I have a pretty wide variety of CR for her already, so I'm down for anything! Just be wary of being mean to her because she has two protective dads..
Things to avoid: please no head puns

[littlefury]

Name: Nao (she/they)
Contact info: lollichop | discord @ Nao #9016

Character: Waver Velvet (team orange)
About them: Fate/Zero servantswap AU, in which he summoned Lancer instead of Rider. Waver's a nineteen year old mage with an inferiority complex the size of London, and while he's actually fairly clever he also has a short temper and tendency to act before he thinks on occasion.
Plans: bold of you to think i ever plan anything
CR wanted: go nuts
Things to avoid: /shrugs

[flatteries]

Character: Inigo
About them: Generally comes across as a goofy (and flirty, when it comes to girls) teenage idiot who just wants to make people smile and probably embarrass himself in literally every single conversation he has. Actually a prince gone zombie dragon apocalypse survivor gone time traveller. Fire Emblem games are wild. He's more serious and thoughtful than he'd seem at first, but also like.. a lot more troubled.. someone please help this boy slow down.
Plans: Inigo has gotten the itch to dance again after not having done so for a while now. The problem is that he hates the thought of anyone seeing him dance. So he'll be sneaking around the train to try and find a quiet place, only to go OH HAHA SO GREAT TO SEE YOU HERE DIDN'T EXPECT YOU WELL BYE... whenever he thinks he's found a quiet place only to spot someone else. Super subtly. His face all red. He's a master actor. Totally up for doing stuff with this with anyone.
CR wanted: I would love dumb fellow (teenage) friends. He misses the super goofy group he had back home tons.. Adults who judge him for his Inigoness would be funny, but I'm also totally down for adults who actually give him some validation although he'll cry. He'll 100% cry.
Things to avoid: Nope, all cool, go ahead and bully him if you want. It's easy.

[irrationally]

Character: Alice Liddell
About them: Alice is the kind of person who would prefer to be literally anywhere else than in the present experiencing what's going on around her, but alas, here we are. In the present. Experiencing it. She's right there on the cusp between being a teenager and an adult, yet she acts much older than she is with how cynical and wary she is of absolutely everything 24/7. Deep down she's just Tired though and would very much just like to enjoy tea and some naps after having to save her own mind twice, thanks.
Plans: Nothing yet, since she's brand new! Looking forward to getting her settled in.
CR wanted: I'm very much open to anything for her, although I have to warn that she's less instantly friendly and cute than my other two, haha. She's pretty sassy and cynical. She has a soft spot for kids though and wouldn't be mean to them unless they're being bratty.
Things to avoid: Well, trains sure are a sore spot, but I guess that's one she'll just have to deal with. Let's at least avoid fires, okay.

[flatteries]

nita can bring the brains, inigo can bring the.. good fun hero cheer? it all works out somehow.

[adropofsunlight]

Name: Lisa
Contact info: Plurk: faysdarkangel

Character: Rapunzel
About them: Tangled, girl with the glowing hair that heals people and in one instance could bring a person back from the dead at the end so...thats a thing.
Plans: [I honestly don't have a lot except Rapunzel going out, doing chores as usual and learning new things. Nothing overall outstanding.
CR wanted: Just any type of Cr, I enjoy setting Rapunzel up with different types and see what happens from it.
Things to avoid: As of the moment, nothing.

Character: Yugi Mutou
About them: Yu-Gi-Oh! Current King of Games and a teenager who just loves games. Friendly and confident he will go out of his way to help someone in need.
Plans: Just getting him settled into his new life, probably bothering Kaiba, finding out there is a games room and being excited and starting to think about his nexts steps. Also plans to teach people what duel monsters are because he has his deck and can use them for examples when explaining.
CR wanted: People who like games, people he can attempt to befriend. People who he can play games with.
Things to avoid: Nothing here atm.
