June Event Plotting

june event 4.0 plotting


MAY CHOICE RESULTS: FEEEEEELINGS

Based on the results of everyone’s last Choice, Emotional Healing was prioritized. The past storms that have rocked Avis Isle had left their mark, but with the fundraising efforts of hanami bingo, substantial repairs have been completed! Overall, there was a focus on emotional healing; the morale around town is at an all-time high, there are sales at every kiosk, and a bonus status effect of Spring Cheer is granted to all adventurers: mana exchange is extra effective this month, and you might find yourself a little touchy-feely. For good reason! In addition to generating mana, skin-to-skin contact will cause characters to feel emotionally healed somewhat as well. Take some time to recover from those inner wounds.

Meanwhile, structural healing was the least prioritized, meaning buildings around town are in less than spectacular condition. Watch your step, because those stairs you're on might collapse – and it looks like even Dodo House is feeling these ill effects! Rooms are leaking, food is less readily available, some sheets are weirdly itchy, your bed might break, and the walls between your suites may just degrade and collapse without notice… oops? Any major inconvenience you might imagine from a creaky home is fair game!

LIMITED EVENT REWARDS:

  • As detailed in last month’s event, everyone who partook in Hanami Bingo received a special token which grants mastery over one power of any element.


  • ON & OFF WORLD: A LITTLE GLITCHY

    That said, not all seems to be well in paradise. Those who have been in Duocaeli for a little longer might begin to notice that the aches and pains of all your ON world traveling seem to linger with you even as you begin to enter the OFF world. For those who get into more serious scrapes, injuries also seem to linger, less grievous but still present. There’s no simple escape any longer.

    In the ON world, Avisle's storm has fully cleared as of last month, but something lingers in its usually beautiful skies. Not enough to obstruct trade, not quite, though those steering their airships in may grumble a bit about the turbulence. Ash flutters in the air, clouds are replaced with dark plumes of smoke; it gets harder to breathe in a game where that shouldn't matter, and there's a strangely luminescent sheen in the sky, like the scales of a beast.

    In the OFF world, there are smoke warnings… even when Crane City is set upon an island, it seems the air from distant lands is rolling in. If you look out into the gray sky and seas, they shimmer with an unknown something slithering within the misty smoke and water. Occasionally, something will break above the surface–two golden, serpent-like eyes, watching. Waiting.

    > june choice

    Every now and then, a glitch will activate–and those who are on the edges of the map, whether that be ON or OFF, will catch a glimpse of something swapping.

    The Serpent has a request to make. Catch a glimpse of those you miss, or protect those you barely know in front of you?

    The Choice is Yours. Players must submit their Choice to this toplevel by Friday, June 30th at 8:55 PM PST/11:55 PM EST. For a Choice to count for IC consequences and rewards, players must submit a thread of at least 3 comments interacting with the Event Domain.


    ON WORLD: WARS YOUR GUILDS

    Every year, the Guilds of Duocaeli have a friendly competition for bragging rights (and prizes)–will you tackle it with brute force Warriors Style, fashion a new invention a la Crafters, or try think your way through like the Scholars? Better put your heads together with your fellow Guildees and see what you can do!

    While there are various components to earn points in Guild Wars, the biggest one is helping a family of golems, where players will be able to submit ideas on ways to assist them. Some small cross-Guild collaboration can be encouraged, but be warned - the reward will be halved if more than one Guild member tosses in an idea!

    Guild Wars Submissions can be entered here! Same deadline as Event Choice: Friday, June 30th at 8:55 PM PST/11:55 PM EST.

    OOC Note: Due to the current distribution of characters, the Wanderer + Mender Guilds will be combined (Golden Pigeon), and the Warriors + Scholars Guilds as well (Silvergoose).

    Character Name: Juniper Veltris
    Canon: Original
    For the D&D-literate: here we have a feylost wild magic barb here with memory-problems that are both due to being feylost and also just having a poor Intelligence score.. Excitable, fight-y adventurer type always eager to do the Right Thing(TM), means well but is truly also empty-headed. Dumb of ass, gold of heart.
    AU Plotting Post Link: here
    Plans:
    🥕 wars of guilds: Juniper will be doing her all to help the Wanderer/Mender guild win the war! She'll definitely want to help with reuniting golems, exploring and discovering things as any good adventurer would!!

    🥕 dungeon crawl: Juni can both be susceptible to the siren call of the deep but also help yank someone away from it and attempt to snap them out of it. In the case of the former, she'll probably hear the siren call of her dead biological parents... wouldn't that be such an awful time to be inflicted with haunting fey laughter also..??. But ultimately she'll want to deny the serpent and fight it while having to overcome all the feelings!

    🥕 Will probably stick to tagging out or closed starters this time around!

    Looking for:
    🥕 emotional healing: she will not hesitate to hug or hold hands for the greater good or to ask for it when she's struggling.

    🥕 wanderer/mender teamups: Juni has fairy wings she can use to fly up (or help someone fly up) for gemwalker reunion/dandelion fields, but would probably need some assistance with coping with the smoke and um. Explosions... She's also earth-aligned if anyone wants to partner up for the bigge tunelle! Also just general quest/exploration stuff. :>

    🥕 dungeon crawl: see above.. who wants to suffer together and then fight a snek...

    🥕 off world things: interested in having Juni cope with an injury carrying over from the ON world... She's not exactly a stranger to sustaining injuries during encounters but she hasn't really had to deal with it here yet! Also general "this place is falling apart" shenanigans.

    Anna I'm still torn idk what I want them to do.

    What about off-world stuff with her injuries carrying over? Pinocchio hasn't got anything in the way of healing magic but he'd still try to help her out. Besides that he's not especially cuddly but if hand-holding or hugging helps get her better? He'd probably rather do that with Juniper than most other people.

    surely this is the time for them to get Shadow high

    BUT NO aklfjsadf that would work for me! maybe juni can help V with some manual, strength-requiring labor around Dodo or something?
    verselet: (185)

    [personal profile] verselet 2023-06-05 02:52 pm (UTC)(link)
    help, a high Shadow is the one who makes Dodo a mess

    BUT YEAH that would be cute actually. maybe he's trying to fix a leaky sink that keeps flooding the bathroom floor and thus his jandals but he can't turn the wrench hard enough 8(((
    feyfound: (Default)

    [personal profile] feyfound 2023-06-06 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
