June 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 through the month of Fiddlesticks the train will stop to pick up new passengers. When everyone rejoins the train they will find a new gym!

This carriage is very similar to carriage C. A long narrow space walled off from the corridor. The cupboard however is not filled with balls. Instead it has mats, soft hand held pads for training with, training dummies and even some balancing beams. It also has large blocks that look a little like what you might find in a children's play centre but can be used to make obstacle courses or provide cover in training exercises. There are two climbing apparatus next to the wall that can be swung out to create a climbing frame.

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 an on train event From the 12th to the 13th June. A plotting post will go up on 10th June.

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

Other Info

~ We now have a character initiative page. This is for any character or player driven things, such as new organisations, new IC publications and other services that are player/character driven.

~ We now have two types of network.

The ICPs are on the train, there is one in every carriage and one in each cabin. Characters can communicate with voice or video to either the whole train or to one carriage. There is no back catalogue of posts and no text option (there is one in the works and only those characters who can interface with the ICPs have access so far- their text posts can be seen by all but only replied to in video or voice). At its heart it is a slightly fancy tannoy system. [community profile] voidtreckernet is the place for network posts on the train.

The SCAs on missions now have voice communications enabled. These are active from when the voidtreckers first get their mission briefs to when they return to the void at the end of the mission. They can speak to all, to team or to individual. Please see here for more information. Those with phones or other devices that can connect can assume that they have linked up by next mission. Even with these devices they can only access this feature on missions. Each mission will have a comms post for interactions over the SCAs.

Both of these are big open communication systems and it is fair to say conversations are not very private. Some such as the 'speak to all' on the SCA should be a free for all radio style format. But for conversation between two people on the ICP (even if it can be heard by all) please check oocly with participants before threadjacking.

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: BG
Contact info: fireduck@plurk

Character: Wei Wuxian (Western order is Wuxian Wei)
About them: He's a mix of The Untamed and Mo Dao Zu Shi mostly because at the time of apping I didn't really know better /sobs, is married to Lan Wangji, has a raddish son Lan Sizhui and is waaay too energetic and exuberant on a good day. People can probably find him almost literally bouncing around the train! He's a Chinese Cultivator, which is basically his world's version of a wizard priest. He likes to play the flute, cook foods far too spicy, and drink. Those who were on the train last month would've been invited to his and Wangji's wedding!
Plans: Not...fail...at tagging...?
CR wanted: Training, drinking, food, play buddies! He has Kaito but really, there should be more. lol Also with the new arrivals in his cast, he'll probably be latching on to Wen Ning and A-Qing (adopting bitty teen).
lookslikeacinnamonroll: (shouldn't touch)

[personal profile] lookslikeacinnamonroll 2020-05-31 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Wen Ning is going to be very confused about them suddenly being married.

Excited! Happy for Wei-gongzi! But also confused.

wei wuxian, holding a-qing by the scruff of her neck and wen ning by the scruff of his neck as they both hiss at xue yang: hmm.

Also I'm handwaving that Light and Kumoko were at his wedding even if they were on autopilot at the time. 8')

[personal profile] laurefindil 2020-06-01 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
Brother-in-law! (sort of)

There needs to be flute playing, yes. Glorfindel is convinced, after getting to know Lan Wangji, that Sad Wizards are just elves with round ears.

Drinking would be fun. Ever try an Elven wine? (evil grin)
yilingdaddy: (Fancy)

[personal profile] yilingdaddy 2020-06-01 08:48 am (UTC)(link)

And they totally are lol

NO HE HASN'T TRIED ELVEN WINE, THIS MUST BE FIXED!!!!!!!!! XD
