AUGUST CALENDAR OF EVENTS

Hello, fairybros!

A couple of quick notes before we forge forward into the August event! As of next app cycle (September), we will be making some changes to the current app and also begin allowing NATIVE OC APPLICATIONS. These applications will have a different format than traditional applications, and will be much more vigorous in their review process, as well as have a completely separate and much shorter submission period. Native OC applications will be submitted before traditional apps, not alongside, and will only be open to individuals with a character currently in-game. We will notify the community as we release info on this in the upcoming month!

And as some of you may have noticed, we've been advancing the game's overarching plot not just through the use of the monarchs, but other in-game NPCs, PM-based special events, and other small easter eggs. We encourage individuals who have taken part in these events to PM the mod account criticisms, thoughts, and reviews of this experience or to paste them in the review area below, as there will be more of them in the upcoming months! 

Also related to NPCs, here is a link to a gamewide player character NPC roster! If your character has any followers or NPCs which other player characters may *frequently* interact with, please feel free to add their details! Fairies, soldiers, footmen, servants, and more are all game! If you desire, you can even advertise your NPC as an appable native OC. 


 
The Falling of the Lawkamercyme
GENRE: MYSTERY/MAGICAL | DURATION: 10-18 AUGUST





SUMMARY The lack of the stars kept by shardholders has left the night sky more dark than usual; and it's from the sky that these small wrathful creatures fall. Most of them are only as tall as knee-height, with wide mouths full of dozens of needle-sharp teeth, and look like living shadows. They have a fondness for eating birds, any food they can get their hands on, and shoes. They'll also leave clothes and bedding in tatters. If many find each other, they will bind together to grow proportionally larger... and more dangerous. When in this form, they'll seek out the women of the court to hunt.

The fairies and imps can sometimes be caught heard shrieking "Lawkamercyme!" at them before fainting, and may be eaten if not quickly saved! If characters speak this name around them, the dark shadows will shrink a little; if several characters do it at once, the combined command will cause the shadows to vanish and the trouble to lessen. Otherwise, they seem very afraid of dogs, who will hunt them mercilessly and seem to be the only thing which can kill them beyond speaking the strange word ...

( Please read the Monthly Overview/Quick Notes and use this post for all your plotting needs! )
MONTHLY OVERVIEW
01st AUGUST • APPS CLOSE. What it says on the tin! Get your apps in before this date! Also, MONARCH MEETING AHOY! 
03rd AUGUST • REDGATE MASTER LOG OPENS. For characters who have developed business in Redgate, the master log will be posted on August 03, and will be open throughout the month.
10th AUGUST • EVENT START. The strange shadow creatures begin infesting the lands, causing havoc, and where they can, meeting and merging with others of their kind to form vicious beasts! Handwaved proclamations are posted in the courts urging player characters to do away with these threats by whatever means necessary.
18th AUGUST • OOC submissions for Boons OPEN and are approved/altered/denied until the 22nd (00:01am LONDON GMT).
23rd AUGUST • Approved or altered, boons are ICLY received today when characters wake up.
26th AUGUST (00:01am LONDON GMT)ACTIVITY CHECK.
31st AUGUST (00:01am LONDON GMT)ACTIVITY CHECK ENDS.
QUICK NOTES!
• All of the living shadows will start off approximately knee-high, and the smaller they are, the easier they are to kill.
• Each court keeps its own hounds for hunting, and characters will find the masters of the hunt all too eager to let player characters use them for the sake of hunting these mean bastards down!
• Player characters or hounds may be injured by the shadows.
• Even hounds not from the drabwurld will instinctively act to kill these shadows.

Please use this post to plot for the month and C&P the following!
The next Calender of Events post will go up toward the end of August to cover all of September. Weather in-game will be frequent sunshine, hot blue skies, interspersed with fierce summer storms. Nights will be primarily rainy. Finally, if you have any queries about the event, please direct them to the Questions thread and we'll get back to you ASAP. Thank you!

NAME: lock!
CHARACTER(S) PLAYED: korra, artemis crock
FANDOM(S): legend of korra; young justice
RECENT IN-GAME PLANS:
KORRA: got a boon to save a dragon so she found the spirit and then bounced out to the battle with the elves + unseelie.
ARTEMIS: had a laid back game of capture the flag with some seelie people (including her teammates from home) and then had mako wait on her hand & foot.

NEW PLANS FOR THIS EVENT:
KORRA: IS GOING TO REDGATE YES HELLO. she's spearheading a seelie expedition to redgate to talk to alyosha and try to revive the dragon so yep if anyone wants to run into her + her knew krew, let me know!! BUT if your character is in seelie and would like to come with korra, i'm definitely open to the possibility of her inviting them along after the feast!

ARTEMIS: has challenged herself to make at least three friends in unseelie who aren't crazy villains so clearly that means she needs to make friends with some crazy villains who at least seem sane. and also some not-crazy people because that's fun too.
gordianknots: I'll take it as it comes (You can take your lamb of God)

H'OKAY CAPSLOCK OFF BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY

Waver's running unseelie errands (and at this point is pretty goddamn grumpy about it) and by errands I mean messages that he doesn't know the contents of (so, neither do I, it'll be a mod surprise, unless this changes.) Depending on wheeennnn you're planning on having her get there (Waver's definitely showing up 15 minutes late with faerie starbucks), so that might be a thing to factor in!
sangilak: (☯ i've had it up to...)

NO CAPSLOCK ALL THE TIME

okay but really UM, she's probably going to show up no later than the 7th — she'll be taking appa so she's gonna fly there as soon as possible. she will also not be in the mood for any bullshit since her best friend was almost a fillet of firebender after the battle for the silmaril. she also will be taking a lot of people with her sooo. :|a
gordianknots: The company you keep (You'll never miss)

[personal profile] gordianknots 2014-07-29 10:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh timing. I can probably adjust some of his route, but it sounds like then that, if we're gonna have them run into each other, would be between Korra leaving and Waver approaching the Red Gate? 8|a I assume Appa might provide useful recon, but IDK how likely it is that Korra would be willing to investigate someone approaching.
