August 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 Merriment. Days can be found here.
The thought of the month is "Nobody can do everything, but everybody can do something".
This means: Any thread where you tag into another character's post or top level will earn you two bonus points during July and August.
Threads that fulfil this criteria can be submitted during August 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 coconut. Recipes are here. All the ingredients can be found in the storeroom, refreshed at the platform, 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
As a reminder, you can list things that characters have added to the train here. Just comment under the header of the carriage to which you are adding. There is also a handy spreadsheet here!
When passengers return to the train after picking up new arrivals they will find sleeper carriage 5 has been removed- the four passengers from that carriage have been reassigned to different cabins, though no room-mates have been split up.
They is a slight change to the armoury- additional communal lockers- one for each team and a multi team locker. Information about that can be found on the settings page and the list of communal supplies can be found here.
Important Dates
This month’s event will be a train event running between the 12th and 17th of August.
The TDM will be posted on the 17th. Reserves will open on the 19th. Apps are between the 22nd and the 29th, and AC will run between the 23rd and 30th.
For a reference, please consult our calendar post. For player-led events, please see the player plot calendar.
Other Info
The shop has been updated with Large Items. Points have been updated on the roster.
Our new players (and old players who want a refresher) might find it useful to read gameplay before the platform. As always the mods are happy to answer any questions you might have.
Thank you as ever to both Ree and Nat for their help with NPCs in the last mission. A huge thank you to everyone who took part and who welcomed our 4th wall guests.
For anyone who missed it- please read over the consequence notes for the end of So Familiar a Gleam.

Taiki | 12 Kingdoms | Red
About them: Taiki is a kirin whose role in life is to find the king/queen of the country of Tai and serve them, helping keep them on the path of the gods. Taiki's life went... sideways a little after his egg fruit (people grow on trees in his world, it's normal don't worry about it) got blown to earth and he was born into a human family and he grew up on earth until he was 10. He was taken to his kingdom and found his king. A coup, falling back to earth, an entire horror novel, another interworld rescue and a long stint as a political prisoner later Taiki was kidnapped by a train... He is somehow both an emphatic, holy creature and a traumatised teenager.
On the train he has slowly began to make friends, becoming close with Tidus and Inigo, exploring his bond with Xion and also broadening his circle to others. He has more friends than he has ever had at any point in his life and he's not to sure what to think about that. He can often be found drawing or painting. The time between meeting Taiki in a non-threatening way and getting your hand held is usually about 5.4 seconds.
Plans: He anchored and also is suffering from bloodsickness from the last mission so he will be taking it very easy this month.
CR wanted: I love all cr. Taiki can be a bit hard to get through to at first as he is a shy bean but friends are always good. I am always up for 'negative' cr too- though Taiki is practically incapable of hating anyone.
Things to avoid: Not to avoid but please let me know if your character has reason to smell of blood.

Yes, please! If Sizhui knows about the sickness, he'll do his best to look after his friend!

but yeah anytime! he's happy to, even on train when he's tiny and is slightly more okay with it now that he's realised it means people carry him around and he gets his cuddles in from all the nondragons by being more lap sized
no subject
Also outside of the whole is-a-kirin thing, Taiki loves animals so much so he will happily cuddle fox-dragon!
no subject
GOOD does he want to get on Jingyi's con list that isn't actually a con, but where he figures out if he can get people to help groom him in dragon form
this sounds v dumb but he shows up with a comb and says leave my ribbon alone but hey, i've got fur, and scales (... cries) /hopeful eyes

Little One/Buttercup | OC | Red Team
About them: Small trainee assassin brought up by a cult of an evil god. Has been on the train a whole IC year. Is mid-existential crisis about working for good but also currently having a crisis about stabbing some friends whilst brainwashed. Has like 5 friends now and what is that even about???? Had an absolute terrible time on the last mission and would like to crawl into a hole and disappear now please and thank you.
Plans: She has hired out the fancy carriage for a week from Merriment 16 and will be hiding in there watching horror films and eating her weight... wait she's tiny, a giants weight in snacks until these feelings stop. I plan to do an open log sometime next week.
CR wanted: All of it? She is slowly gaining friends but she is good with allies and people she can try and manipulate into feeding her.
I always want evil characters to pick her up as a minion but alas this has so far not happened
Things to avoid: Nothing on my part but if her dialect annoys you feel free to Opt out

About them: A bright, cheery child from a world masterpiece theatre anime about hope, friendship and indentured servitude in the 1840s. This Romeo is a crau which meant he died and went to a heaven where he became a weapon for a god. Currently his god is Zetta. This process wiped his memories so he only has a couple of things from before he died that were regained in his time in his previous game.
Romeo is all about teamwork and friendship. He believes in the best of people and wouldn't know self preservation if you hit him with it.
Plans: I never have plans. He will continue helping his friends, and helping people recover from the last mission.
CR wanted: Are you a person? Then Romeo would like to be your friend.
