January 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 Poi. Days can be found here.
The thought of the month is "If you light a lamp for somebody, it will also brighten your own path".
This means: Any thread where you tag into another character's post or top level in January or February will earn you two bonus points.
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.
The ingredient of the month is Corned Beef. 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:
Orange: Cleaning bedrooms and passenger areas
Blue: Meal Preparation
Purple: Laundry
Red: 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!
Important Dates
This month’s event will be an mission from the 15th to 28th of January.
The TDM will be posted on the 17th. Reserves will open on the 19th. Apps are between the 22nd and the 29th. AC is between the 23rd and the 30th.
For a reference, please consult our calendar post. For player-led events, please see the player plot calendar.
Other Info
~ The roster has been updated with points for this month.
~ When at the shop terminal the Voidtreckers will find a button in the corner that reads 'VOTING'. Selecting this will switch the page over from the shop to VOTING POOL. Exactly how it works is explained in detail on that page but it is a way for passengers to band together to buy larger or longer term items, including carriages themselves.
Every IC month (every two OOC months) characters will earn 5 votes which they can use to vote on additions to the train. If they wish they can spend points on additional votes (one vote is five points.) From February new characters will be allowed to swap their initial 3 points for a vote if wish in their first month only. To keep things fair everyone in game from 1st January and the launch of the voting pool will start with 6 votes.
Characters can also submit things for the voting pool. Everything is subject to mod approval before it is allowed to be voted on. Anything that reaches its vote goal will be fulfilled at the next station stop just like purchases from the shop.
~ The Story So Far has been updated.

Contact info:
Yosuke Otoha
About them: A former yakuza turned city guardian, Otoha now leads the red team on the train despite not... really knowing what he's doing. But he does his best and is trying to get used to a more 'normal' life
Plans: Being possessive over Emporio, apparently. Other than that, just kind of drifting until mission time.
CR wanted: Friends! Enemies! People to spar with!
Things to avoid: idk
Ken Amada (AU)
About them: A small kid with big issues and a Persona to match. He's been adopted into the Kingdom Hearts cast, and absolutely will fight you and everyone around to be taken seriously.
Plans: He's going to be clinging to Seto pretty hard (and also Vexen) but he's going to try to make an effort to get in some training this month in the hopes of getting ready for a mission? Maybe mission? He ICly doesn't know, he's just been antsy.
CR wanted: More kids his age? Maybe? Other than that more adults to surprise.
Things to avoid: He am a chld, no smoochin'.
no subject
Please forgive him, Ken.

Or something.

Caleb Widogast
About them: A human wizard from Exandria full of trauma and sad. He's slowly losing the sad. He's very powerful at his level, but physically a wet noodle.
Plans: He's sort of been on autopilot so I haven't had much going on with him. I need to get him in gear with other people.
CR wanted: Smart people, especially. He doesn't really understand this 'soul tether' thing, but he's going to try.
Things to avoid: He's taken.
no subject
Naoya (CRAU)
About them: Literally Cain, reincarnated over and over again. He wants to kill God to end his curse, but he's kind of chilled out on the warpath a bit since spending a while in Liminal Space. He's been adopted by that game's Final Fantasy XIV cast.
Plans: Looking into the soul tether thing, fucking around on his first mission. He's not likely to stick to his team.
CR wanted: Positive CR! Negative CR! He can be nice or rub people the wrong way real easily.
Things to avoid: /shrug
