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: Perky
Contact info: Perkyandproud#5561 works best, but I am also on Plurk. Look for Perkyandproud. Yes, it is a theme :)

Character: Glorfindel

About them: Tolkien. Silmarrillon, Lord of the Rings. He's just under 5000 years old in this life (that doesn't include his age previous to his death at Gondolin). When I say he has a sunny personality, I mean it, too. He can generate heat or light or both, the flowers in the Greenhouse car love him (especially the sunflowers), he has a warm personality (do you need anything? Food, pastry? Let him feed you!), his aura can heal mind, body, and soul (it's not instant, but it does speed up anything else, I leave how much it affects your character up to you). Also, he teaches Archery and makes arrows.
Also, also, he is a Purple Team Leader and Council Member. Hit him up.

Plans: If anyone needs a forge and is bemoaning the lack of one (or just the fact it would be difficult to get one, what with the ventilation issues), I'd like to mention Glorfindel just melted through a robot with his body in the last mission :) Other than that, he's probably just going to be doing his usual: Cooking/baking, gardening, fussing over his friends, playing music/singing to the train at 3am, teaching archery, and checking if any of the newbies on the Platform need lessons in using the bathroom/shower/kitchen, that sort of thing.

CR wanted: Anyone need a Traindad? Or just a friend to talk to? Or pastries? :) He's always up for comparative religion, as well, especially with other Champions/priests.

Things to avoid: Chill with just about anything. He's got a lover, but flirting never hurt anyone ;)

Character: Wei Wuxian
About them: Mostly novel with a bit of the Untamed drama mixed in for fun.
Wei Wuxian is a very happily married man, and if you ask him, is quite fine, no PTSD here, no trauma, just don't anyone get a dog. >.>
A recovering necromancer. Flute player extraordinaire. Maker of the Spiciest food you will ever spit out :)

Plans: Let's see, he bought his uncle some new eyes, so he's going to see how that surgery comes out. Plus, there's that wedding to plan for. Woot!
Other than that, he's going to be going to Archery practice, continue to work secretly on his Golden Core and sword skills, spend lots of time in the spa, and with his husband.

CR wanted: Need a snarky friend? He's totally there for you!

Things to avoid: He is happily married, but will flirt with anything.
