December 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 Imagination. Days can be found here.

The thought of the month is: "We are made to persist. That's how we find out who we are."

This means: Any thread that reaches 15 comments (total) will earn you two points.

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

Recipes are here. The ingredient of the month is Honey. 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

When characters regroup on the train after the platform they will find a new carriage at the end of the train, beyond the luggage carriage.

Triage

This carriage is a double carriage. At the back of the car is a staircase, but at the front there's a lift connecting the two floors. Both floors have a corridor running down the left hand side.

The bottom floor is one large carriage, though there are curved curtain rails on the ceiling so that thick, grey curtains can be pulled around areas to cut them off. There are four medical beds that can be wheeled around or locked in place, and a handful of chairs. There are cupboards with medical equipment, primarily for first aid.

Upstairs there are two surgical bays. Though the equipment is basic, it is enough that wounds can be sewn and minor procedures undertaken. The ICP in this room has instructions for more complicated medical procedures but also carries warnings that advanced medical training is advised and surgery should only be carried out by senior medics.

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 there will be two mini events! One on the 12th December which will be a little more meta-plot orientated and one on 20th which will be seasonal festive fun!

There is also a player-ran train meeting going up on the 5th December. As a reminder we have a player plot calendar for any large train-wide things anyone wishes to organise!

The TDM will be posted on the 16th. Reserves will open on the 19th. Apps are between the 22nd and 29th. AC will run from the 23rd to the 30th of December.

Other Info

~ The mod team would like to give a huge THANK YOU to Ree (Player of Tidus) for her tremendous help during the boss battle! Team two have her to thank for that epic fight.

~ Talking of that fight and the mission: if any characters died please report their deaths here.

~ We have compiled the story so far for those interested in the slowly unfolding meta-plot!

~ AC this month will be check-in only. As long as you check in on the AC post when it goes up you will pass AC and get the 5 points for doing so. There will still be the opportunity to claim bonus challenge AC. If you are holding a strike from November you will have the option to either clear it in December or take the free check in and carry your strike over into January.

Name: Nella
Contact info: Nellasaura#3047 or Nellasaur

Character: Devero
About them: He's from an original sci-fi universe, set 600-ish years after, well, the apocalypse. His society is post-scarcity, post-capitalism, socialistic, and queer-friendly! It's pretty nice, generally speaking-- though not without issues. On the train he's going to be a cyborg without a network, a mech jockey missing his mech, a socially-oriented man in a totally new community-- and recovering. More info on that last bit here.

Plans: Platforming and getting all introduced and into the swing of things!
CR wanted: Devero has a lot of facets and I don't know which one(s) are going to end up predominant, but folks, he can be a lot of things: the straight man to your mischief-maker, the hardass to your slacker, the dude horrified by the perfectly normal economic or social structures of your world of origin, the baffled newbie who needs his hand held, the socially starved secretly soft man who really wants his hand held, the guy on the team who's conscientious about chores and assignments, the guy who takes care of everyone when he really needs someone to take care of him, the adoptive big brother/dad, the support guy getting stuff done in the background, the really frustrated tech guy, the drill sergeant, the dude teaching line dances from the future in the gym-- he's complicated and I am up for anything!

Things to avoid: OOCly I'm up for pretty much anything and I can engage with some pretty dark themes. Dev's backstory does contain severe relationship abuse, see link above and please be aware if you're sensitive to that.

I'm looking forward to getting to play with you all!
