⋆✩ welcome! ✩⋆


OOC INTRO

We've gotten a nice first round for the start of the game! There's a form below for you all to introduce yourselves, or get reacquainted after the interest check, and start your plotting in game! Quests will be releasing in about a week along with the first event that will center largely around these quests. Afterwards, we plan on having a temperature check of sorts where you can all express thoughts or concerns on the pacing, handling, or anything else. Things aren't fully set in stone, and we can make adjustments moving forward!

Remember to follow the plurk ([plurk.com profile] baymods) for more minor updates! As you jump into the intro, here are some important things to note:

⟡ ICly, there was a "town meeting" held today where the guild leaders announced that newcomers would be invited to guilds. It has been decided that characters should join a guild to help give back to the city that will, in turn, help them find a way home. Dr. Denne mentions that he's been assigned to make this his top priority for the time being.

⟡ Characters may have been ICly told about this decision before the meeting, depending on their intro blurb.

⟡ This meeting is when characters receive their grumpearls, meaning they have been taught how to use the network! You are free to post open logs or network posts now that the game is officially open. Remember, the network is a psychic connection, so it is quite possible to transmit thoughts unintentionally, have issues, etc.

⟡ The guild leaders are very busy getting everything in order with these decisions, but they will be available for threading with in some limited capacity on the event post. Until then, if there's an urgent question your character would seek them out for, or maybe a message they'd like to send (due to their intro prompts or otherwise), there will be a header below for you to do so.

⟡ Many "newcomers" have vanished. Those faces you met on the TDM are gone just as quickly as they arrived. Some have trouble remembering them. Maybe even you can only imagine a fuzzy outline of someone, no recognition of the conversations you might have had, or maybe certain highlights are more clear. Dr. Denne mentions that this is a known phenomenon, that some of them can recall them, but not others. They say they'll be keeping a record of the Pokemon here now so that they won't be lost, and will try to find out what happened.

Omg. Please torment this borb with memes. That sounds hysterical. x)

I've enjoyed Shoka so far and the fact that these two share a guild means many opportunities for shenanigans.

My trash boy is very motivated to battle and get stronger, now that he knows evolution is a thing. He must become LORGE...

Shoka just keeps repeatedly forcing this image into his mind and refusing to explain:



i'm mmmmmostly canon blind for P5 but have gained approximate knowledge of its lore via "friend is into it" osmosis...i love that Akechi and Shoka can bond over 1) bird aliases and 2) unimaginable violence. just the essentials. she HAS to make fun of him more but i would love to also dig into his drama at a later date...could be juicy since they both have body counts and are experiencing slightly different flavors of the same "i should be dead" turmoil

she'll definitely be happy to scrap with him as well! might be extra rude about it just to get him riled up like "aww did they make that up that evolution junk just to make you feel better? 😂😂" and then he gains his Steel typing and can kick her half-Fairy ass easy. revenge for forcing Amogus upon him

He would try so hard to dissect Amogus. What does it mean? What even are the 2020's?

But yessss... the shared past of death and violence is palpable to mine into, as well as the teasing and friction. >:] I like making my boy struggle, hehe.
