February Information and CR Meme!

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

IC Month

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

The thought of the month is “No-one is useless in these worlds who lightens the burdens of another.”

This means: Tagging into other characters’ top levels or posts will earn you two bonus points during January and February.

Threads that fulfil this criteria can be submitted during February AC. You may find it easier to keep a tracking list of threads for easy compiling of bonus AC! As a note: Though there is no thread length minimum we will be keeping an eye on thread lengths to make sure that people are committing to the threads they tag into.

The ingredient of the month is avocado. 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 kitchen and bathrooms
Purple: Cleaning bedrooms and passenger areas
Red: Meal Preparation
Orange: Laundry

Important Dates

This month’s event will be a train event on the 12th & 13th of February. (A plotting post will go up on the 7th.)

The TDM will be posted on the 16th. Reserves will open on the 18th. Apps are between the 20th and the 27th. AC will run from the 20th to the 27th of February.

Train Updates

The shop has grown once again to add medium animals. Animals that fit into this category are anything bigger than a miniature kitten and smaller than a large dog breed. As a rule of thumb: if it could be ridden into battle it's too large!!

A further update to the shop. Hammerspace items can now only be bought by those from the world they exist in; they can buy them as gifts for others if they wish, much like with animals from specific worlds. This has been reflected on the new Item comment here. (I realise the comment is visibly a little awkward on the shop page since there are replies to the old comment still but that will be fixed once shop purchases have been processed!)

A reminder that in general with specific items from worlds that are not your character's own, please make sure your character has learned about them either in a thread or, if handwaved, that you have chatted with a player from that world. This is as much to make sure everyone knows how the items work as anything else. Any questions, come chat to us!

Other Info

~ A huge thank you to Ree, Nat and Ace for their stellar work as NPC handlers this mission! If anyone wishes to volunteer to be an NPC handler on missions please go here for all the information and sign ups.

Monthly Plotting

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

Character: Aziraphale

About them: Aziraphale is a (biblical) angel, former Guardian of the Eastern Gate of the Garden of Eden, and Heaven's main agent on Earth in charge of influencing humans towards "good" in order to have their souls count in Heaven's numbers. He's also much older than the Earth, arbors a genuine love for Humanity, is kind to a fault, and has a great love of books and literature.

Aziraphale comes from the end of the Good Omens canon where he and Crowley """helped""" advert the end of the world, but they have also ended up in a previous game before Voidtreckers where they survived, nearly powerless, on a bunch of magical islands.

At this moment, he's been on the Voidtrecker for a good few months, and away from his Earth for nearly a year, and is in a loving relationship with his demonic companion. He doesn't really get involved in missions (the first times he actually went out there, things just seemed to be disastrous and he's just not bothered since), and spends the majority of his time in the upper floor of the library and travelling between private rooms and the kitchen, though the can often be found in the greenhouse car and the garden, and often by Crowley's side.

Plans: Not many specific plans. At this point he's fairly settled in the train, and while he still dreams of going back to his Earth, he's made himself as comfortable here as he can.

He'll be working on ordering books from his Earth to add to the top floor of the library (although he might just end up keeping them to himself. It's hard.) since he hates that such a nice room is so empty.

While he's happy to spend most of his time alone or with Crowley, he's pretty approachable, and I'd like to find more activities for him to do in the long run and more stuff for him to be involved on. Maybe more people finding out he's an angel, which he doesn't really hide, but doesn't quite advertise.

CR wanted: Any CR, positive and negative. Although particularly interested in characters who might be curious about his angelic nature.

Things to avoid: Can't really think of any atm. But I have an Info & Permissions page for him if you're curious and have your own stuff you want to avoid.


ALSO I'm currently on hiatus until the 10th, but happy to plan, backdate and handwave.

Introduction already planned with this dude :3 Soldat's well aware Aziraphale is an angel, so there's somebody there to discuss it with maybe. They're not super into books, but could be convinced with the right conversation probably, and would be happy to share their origami or cooking hobbies with him.

He might find himself gifted with some cravats or regular ties at some point tho XD Soldat really hates that bow tie.

[personal profile] salutosinedelectat 2021-01-31 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, we'll play them meeting :) We can backdate it, as I think I said, since Soldat's been there for a bit now and since they're getting close with Crowley and they told him about knowing another version of the ineffables, they'd be bound to meet early on.

Also, rude! That's his tartan. It's stylish :(

Ooh, backdating is good, I had missed that! Definitely can have them meet up before the platform happens, just log it later when you're back for real :3

The cravats and ties will be in the same tartan, will that help :D

[personal profile] salutosinedelectat 2021-01-31 09:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, we'll set it sometime that makes more sense, since Soldat would have spotted Aziraphale in the train anyway, I think. A couple of days or within the week of them arriving to the train should do.

Well, he does like cravats, and ties are alright. He probably won't understand the issue with the bow tie but gifts are nice

Technically the bow tie plus the hair plus the kind of round frame gives Soldat strong Arnim Zola feelings (the guy who gave Bucky the serum and the metal arm, basically their first torturer), which replacing the bow tie alleviates :B He doesn't have to wear them, and it'll be a while, but at some point the gift is gonna happen XD

Well at least Aziraphale doesn't really wear the glasses on a daily basis unless he's reading

...Finding out Az is an angel/seeing his wings... will screw Handsome Jack up pretty bad actually.
salutosinedelectat: (Default)

[personal profile] salutosinedelectat 2021-01-31 09:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh he's not going around showing his wings. It's a little too personal and there really isn't enough space for it.

But he can definitely spot Aziraphale doing a miracle or two
gentle_jim: (nasty man)

[personal profile] gentle_jim 2021-02-01 12:08 am (UTC)(link)
Oh lord, you'll never get him to stop asking Az to do those if he sees a hecking miracle.

And that's fine- just finding out he's an angel is enough to mess with Jack.

We can work something out then! Spotting a miracle probably isn't too hard, though nowadays he uses them for mostly very simple things

Don't mind Vexen also camping out on the upper floor of the library.

He can sense the balance of light and darkness in someone's heart and is very curious, so he can and will ask questions about the angel thing. He's already familiar with multiversal nonsense, so he'll even take anything that doesn't add up based on his experiences in stride.

Since Aziraphale doesn't actually own it, he knows he has to share the space anyway. He's being good about that lol

And sure! He's not against speaking about it. He doesn't hide what he is, he just...doesn't exactly bring it up himself, unless it's relevant. And he's also been forced to come to terms with a lot of multiverse nonsense so at this point he knows it's bound to happen
