March 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 Kazoo. Days can be found here.
The thought of the month is "A journey well shared is a journey well enjoyed".
This means: Varied CR. The first thread with each character set in the month of Kazoo will earn you two bonus points during March and April.
Threads that fulfil this criteria can be submitted during April AC. You may find it easier to keep a tracking list of threads for easy compiling of bonus AC!
The ingredient of the month is tomato. 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: Laundry
Purple: Cleaning kitchen and bathrooms
Red: Cleaning bedrooms and passenger areas
Orange: Meal Preparation
The Train
As the month moves onto the month of Kazoo, the train will stop to pick up new passengers. When everyone rejoins the train they will find a new sleeper carriage.
As a reminder, you can list things that characters have added to the train here. Just comment under the header of the carriage you are adding to!
Important Dates
This month’s event will be a world event on the 11th - 25th of March. (An info and 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 22nd and the 29th. AC will run from the 23rd to the 30th of March.
Other Info
We now have a Permissions Directory page for character permissions posts that have specific requirements or warnings, or need opt-ins or information from other players.
As it is a mission month we would like to remind you about our NPC handler roles. Sign up is here!
Also for those wanting to plan things in game,please remember the player plot calender to help make sure everyone knows what is happening and when!
Monthly Plotting
Feel free to use this post to plot anything you want for the next month! Here’s a structure you can use!

Contact info:
Character: Koumyou Sanzo (
About them: From Saiyuki, a Buddhist high priest whose last memory on his world is his own death to save his adopted son's life. He's a total troll, and loves to act the fool. "I can't tell if you're a genius or a moron" is something that's been said to him more than a few times in canon. You can get more info about him on his journal, including his app!
Plans: Koumyou's going to start teaching Devero how to meditate, as a precursor to chi magic lessons. And possibly some martial arts...? And he's going to continue working on getting Devero less scared of the Seiten sutra, all of which is going to be a gradual and ongoing process.
More immediately, of course he's going to the dance with Devero.
I don't... really have ideas outside of this one very tight CR right now. Please help. I want to inflict him on everyone.
Unfortunately he probably won't teach anyone else anything dangerous, for many reasons, although I am considering the idea of him teaching one (1) group class on basic meditation open to anyone...? Depending on OOC interest?
He just suspects the whole train could use with knowing how to hit reset on their brains. Lots of trauma around here, you know.
And if it goes well and characters actually give a shit ICly, he could possibly be talked into it being an ongoing thing? IDK. He has a lot of issues around teaching, but meditation is pretty harmless, so it could happen.
CR wanted: All of it! Please hit me up so we can plan shit.
Things to avoid: I can't think of anything, but I'm not shy about speaking up before something's a problem if that changes!
Character: Alleyana Tabris (
About them: From Dragon Age, Alley is a Tabris (a potential protagonist origin of the first game) who never met Duncan, and never became the Grey Warden. Instead, after butchering her way free of the Arl's estate, she ran off to join the Dalish in the Free Marches.
Fast forward to the start of Inquisition, and she was a full-fledged member of Clan Lavellan, including bearing a full face tattoo in the pattern of Elgar'nan (it's gone now). She was a natural choice for the Clan to pick to send to the Conclave to spy on the humans, with her experience with them and her history of carving her way free if she had to.
The rest is Dragon Age Inquisition history.
You can get more info about her on her journal, including her app!
Plans: Alley's missing arm is probably going to keep fucking her up so IDK if anyone wants to like, tell her what phantom limb pain is or how to deal with it. I don't really have anything else going on for her ICly.
She's getting her shield back finally! So she'll be ready to kick lots of ass on the upcoming mission. It's too big for a locker and with the lack of hammerspace items being purchasable... she's going to be sleeping with this thing in her bunk. Spikes and all. But hey, it super duper won't be the first time. Like, at all.
I'm planning to focus on her on the mission if there's chances to tag out a lot this time. We'll see how that goes. She's a tanky tanky tank who will absolutely fling herself between danger and other people, given half the chance, so that could be a useful hook?
I need to get her lots of points so she can get her giant mabari puppy, who will in turn make shoving her into non-combat RP situations a lot easier.
CR wanted: All of it! Please hit me up so we can plan shit.

Also Otoha will continue to pester Koumyou.
Casper can talk to Alley about phantom limb pain, he knows it well. And Ken is willing to keep dragging her to medical until she talks to a medic proper.
no subject
And good, someone needs to tell her it's a thing. Dragon Age (non-magical) medicine is still at leeches and trepanation, so she has no clue. Hopefully she won't need literal dragging to medical anymore, but you ~never know~.
Also Otoha and Alley could spar if you want! Cuz, shield! If they meet and get along at all anyway, lmao. Maybe they can meet on the mission? Even if the teams are split from each other again, they're both red.
no subject
He's... trying to help. Small child doing his best, okay.
Ooh neat, yes. Otoha does not go easy on anyone ever in terms of training so someone who can actually stand up to his blows would be really nice. They both seem like grumpy jerks who are actually nice, so. Either mission meeting or train meeting, both work for me!

There is probably going to be a point she's going to WANT to join in on the training, though. She's a monk by training and so that kind of stuff is right up her alley and she's naturally very interested and curious + she's searching for someone (or people) to help her train each day. She will take no for an answer but she'll be down about it for like an hour.

But yay for meditation buds!

His own training was beyond harsh with an incredibly high fatality rate among his fellow students, and he's not sure he can safely train someone else because his concept of normal is nonexistent and his instincts are often needlessly brutal. So he's trying, very carefully and very hesitantly, with someone he trusts.
no subject
But nah she won’t be too awful about it. Disappointed sure, but pushy nah.
no subject
(But it's okay if she doesn't, too. IDK if Dev would tell her either, or if she'd even ask, etc etc etc.)
:> At least they won't burn bridges with each other over it.
no subject
And Youmyou is getting some kind of uncertain side-eyes now that they worked out he's the one dating Devero. Devero doesn't seem like he's in a good place for dating anybody. I'm not sure if they'll bring anything up, but that is there anyway.
no subject
And Koumyou wouldn't be offended if he knew he was being side-eyed over that, at least. Despite all the good he's done Dev, he's not fully convinced he's the best person for him.
