May Information and CR meme!

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

IC Month

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

The thought of the month is “A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to its old dimensions.”

This means: Every thread in May or June where your character learns, or is learning something new will be worth 2 team points. This might be learning something new about a friend, learning a new skill or learning something about the train or a world.

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

Recipes are here. The key ingredient this month is bacon. All the ingredients can be found in the storeroom and characters are welcome to make other food with them.

This months chore assignments are:

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

The Train.

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

They will also discover a change to the dining and kitchen facilities. They now cover two double carriages. One carriage is the kitchens- with one floor ovens and prep area and the upper floor washing up and more prep. The dining carriage now has two floors, both with a long wooden table and benches. More room for everyone!

They also will find a cinema

All of this has been updated on the setting. Remember to let me know if your character does anything to alter the setting!

Important Dates

This month event will be a mission event From the 9th to the 22nd May. An info and plotting post will go up on 5th May.

Reserves will open 18th May with a TDM going up on the 15th May. Apps are between 22nd May and 29th May. AC will run 23rd May to 30th May.

Other Info

Just a reminder about this character shenanigan post. This post is for those times you have an idea in mind that you believe will have consequences and be in the midst of writing the thread, however you want to know what those consequences will be for threads going forward. Or you might still be in the planning stages and would like to know how things might pan out.

It is also for letting me know if your character has done something noticeable that may have consequences. Or if your character is trying to interact with the train/the conductor in a way that is not through the network feedback post.

As we are a much larger game I would ask that you use this post as much as you can- I am liable to lose or forget about things shown to me on plurk or discord, whereas this post and an email notification means that I will definitely see it!

Monthly Plotting

Feel free to use this post to plot any thing you want for the next month! Here’s a structure you can use!

Name: Eric
Contact info: [plurk.com profile] overbringer

Character: Samata Mahto
About them: Samata is an original character based loosely on a D&D character concept I had which went like this:
- Sorcerers use magic intuitively while wizards use magic through study and practice.
- The means wizardry is a skill that you learn
- That means there must have been someone who discovered it in the first place

Samata is the first wizard in a world that is ruled by an aristocratic elite of sorcerer bloodlines. She has a chip on her shoulder and a prosthetic arm and is figuring out how to be a wizard as she goes.
Plans: Gonna offer to take on apprentices and make other people wizards. Gonna take on commissions for making magic items. Gonna do spell research to invent new spells. Might need a live fire test dummy for her "new" Magic Missile spell.
CR wanted: Drinking buddies/party animals. Nerds. People who have inborn magic powers or a rank of nobility in their home worlds.
Things to avoid: shrug emoji

When they stop being awkward, Gladio is an awesome drinking buddy.

^^ Just fyi~
les_magique: (We don't need to worry about that)

[personal profile] les_magique 2020-04-30 07:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Honestly once she calms down she'll apologize to HIM and it'll be good.

[personal profile] callmegladio 2020-04-30 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
... And then... drinkies? Yes? ^^
les_magique: (Cheers!)

[personal profile] les_magique 2020-04-30 07:56 pm (UTC)(link)
And then drinks!
les_magique: (I might be out of spells right now)

Samata will DEFINITELY be there if he doesn't have a shirt on.

[personal profile] callmegladio 2020-04-30 08:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I think, this month will probably be the month of No Shirt. He's been good so far. He likes being shirtless!
flatteries: (it sort of sounds like you leaving)

[personal profile] flatteries 2020-04-30 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
one day samata will have to find out inigo is a prince if you're looking for nobility cr... he's so cagey about that fact though but WE'LL FIND A WAY
les_magique: (That makes no sense)

[personal profile] les_magique 2020-04-30 08:08 pm (UTC)(link)
The ruling elite live on the blood of the working class!
flatteries: (for breakfast in the heartbreak hotel)

[personal profile] flatteries 2020-04-30 08:19 pm (UTC)(link)
is there really a working class in the zombie apocalypse
les_magique: (I might be out of spells right now)

[personal profile] les_magique 2020-04-30 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay what the fuck HAPPENS in that game?
flatteries: (there's nothing familiar here anymore)

[personal profile] flatteries 2020-04-30 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
just following that good old classic fire emblem plot!

les_magique: (Let me explain you a thing)

[personal profile] les_magique 2020-04-30 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
A dragon god relative turned everyone into zombies?
flatteries: (but i'll hum along)

[personal profile] flatteries 2020-04-30 09:26 pm (UTC)(link)
i mean... technically yes....

an ~evil dragon~ basically got revived in the future inigo is from, which made everything go to shit and made people who died suddenly come back to life as killer zombies called the risen. so inigo and his friends escaped that world to the past in order to try and prevent said evil dragon awakening so the world would never get to that state.

Huh.

Anyways zombie apocalypse is more pressing than class warfare so he get's a pass.

Hello! I was Toki in Daybreak, btw. It'll be nice to play with you again!

That said, I offer you a potential live test subject if Atsushi can be convinced it's for something that will help people (or Samata pays well); he can regenerate and will want to make himself useful.

Hey, small world! Good to run into you again!

She will be FULLY aware that asking someone to be a living target is unreasonable but because of the way her magic works just drawing a bullseye on the wall won't work very well. She would definitely offer compensation.

[personal profile] thetyger 2020-04-30 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
o7 Maybe we'll figure something out there then.
