March Plotting & CR Post

Hello everyone! It's time for the announcement and plotting post for March!

OOC Housekeeping

• The Zodiac Network Post will go up March 1st, with a midmonth post going up March 15th. The game wide event log will go up March 4th.
• If you haven't already, please remember to check in for activity! Activity is due by the end of the month.
• Just a reminder for anyone who hasn't joined yet, but we have a game discord for current players! It's completely optional to join, but come in and say hi!
• If you're interested in having your character potentially get a Persona-style dungeon in the April plot, there's still time to sign up! Sign up will be open until March 1st.

World Changes

• The Camp Half-blood Climbing Wall can be found outside of Kaisou High. Watch out for lava!

More details about world changes can be found on the World Changes page.

Side quests
New Side Quests have been added for the month of March! Go ahead and sign up! If you haven't turned in quests for February gacha points, you can still do so until the end of the month! However, signing up for any February quests is now closed.

Town Events
Winter is almost over with the season slowly turning into spring throughout the month of March. Characters can look forward to warmer weather as they begin to move into spring activities either at school or around the city.

In honor of St. Patricks Day's, leprechaun rainbows will be appearing all over the city. Should you follow one of these rainbows, there will be a pot full of golden salmon. Consuming or spending a good amount of time around these salmon will cause characters to be able to unlock memories of an AU life (or in the AU cases, another AU) of the player's choosing. These AUs can be canonical AUs, in-depth AUs that you've developed, or honestly just weird gags like an AU where everyone is a rock with googly eyes. They can either gain snippets of these memories or more details. The only limitation we ask is that for OU characters you don't use an AU that'd spoil major plot plots past your current canon point. Otherwise, it's all fair game.

Gate Event: Tír na nóg
This month's spirit realm will be based on Celtic mythology! The Fae who visited last March has returned, but with a whole new set of problems. Since last year, the Fae Court has experienced a rift between Seelie and Unseelie Fae, which has culminated in the Seelie Fae deciding to move into Kaisou and take over Blue Fish Lake Park. Characters will have to deal with these new, very unwelcomed guests and either attempt to befriend them to get information - or do something to cross them and get cursed.

On top of that, characters will have the ability to visit Tír na nóg to deal with the Unseelie Court as well as a whole host of other dangers that are now running free from within that realm.

Thanks to the Fae's presence and penchant for cursing people, players can get up to 3 monster transformation regains for free during the course of the month with the IC explanation that they crossed the fae. These free regains do not count towards your monthly cap of monster transformations, so characters can potentially buy 5-6 monster regains this month. In addition, this is the only month where you have the option to double up on monster type. So if you were hoping to get a chance to play as a dragon-demon or a winged-unicorn types- now is your chance!

To redeem any monster changes, free or otherwise, please be sure to comment to the regain post so mods can keep track of it.

As for the two factions. POKEGO will receive orders requesting they try to get to know the Fae and learn more about them, while the Black Order will be given an order requesting that they find a way to get the Fae to go back to their realm. As always, what characters decide to do with these orders are up to you!

ETA: Just a couple quick notes since these questions have come up a few times.

Monster types that are behind an element lock still require characters of that element in order to be it. Only shadow characters can be shade, only water characters can be selkies, etc.

If you get a second monster type this month, you can still purchase regains for it later on after this event! You just can't sign up for a second monster type after this event.

Since many monsters have countless variations to them, if there is a monster trait you want your character to have that is not on the Obtainable Trait list, please comment to the regain post with linked evidence that it's a trait associated with said monster and the mod team will figure out if it's obtainable in Kaisou and it's point value. For example if you want your vampire to turn into mist, you'd need to link evidence of it being used in a vampire story such as Dracula.

Lel : Danny Fenton

[schrodingersghost]

Player Name: Lel
Contact: leloipa
Time zone: EST

Character Name: Danny Fenton
Canon: Danny Phantom
Type: Normal AU
About: Teenage half-ghost whose life has gotten increasingly complicated ever since he found out about the spirit realm. But he's mostly dealing with it.
Event Plans:
Ha Ha Ha

So for a few months now Danny has been slowly starting to turn into a Fae. He has pointed ears and he can't touch iron. He's been convinced that this is just more ghost weirdness, because why not?

He's about to find out otherwise. Sometime during this event Danny's going to run into Fae who are going to recognize him for what he is and show him the ropes. Which is great, up until they decide to keep him. So who's up for a rescue mission?

Also during this, one of the Fae is going to decide to "help" his transformation along, so Danny's getting wings and possibly Fae Magic. There's also a good possibility he gets some memory recalls through this, because his canon self was no stranger to surprise kidnapping/adoptions.

Danny might also be getting some glimpses of the summer that never technically happened where he was a fugitive from the government through the AU salmon.

He's having a Great Month.

If anyone who is carrying iron around because of the prophecy posts wants to run into Danny early in the month, I'd be interested in playing that out.

Also as always he's available for side quests.

ALSO, Danny's having a minor moral crisis about when and how to use his powers. PLEASE give him terrible advice.

Anything else?

This kind of feels like the mood this month.

[droptheious]

Varian is gonna come rescue his bro from being taken in by his new fae family. I'm totally down for him seeing some future with him too, especially given their last convo on the subject.

And we can always try their (bad) luck with sidequests again.

[schrodingersghost]

Oh, I'm always up for their bad luck with side quests. We need to find out how many NPC mortal enemies they can make.

Oooh, I didn't realize the AU memories could be shared. I'm down for that. Either some piece of the bad AU future, or the summer of being a fugitive from the government that never happened because Danny got hold of a reality warper and reversed time.

[droptheious]

The answer is NPC enemies EVERY month.

Oh der that's me not wording properly. I meant I'm down for him there to talk about it with Danny while he's trying to deal with it. But yessssss, that's be awesome.

[schrodingersghost]

Banned from half the city.

Haha, that makes more sense. Yes! I'm down for that. Danny could definitely use the help working through everything. Its yet another high stress month for him.

[droptheious]

As it should be!

And yessss he'll do what he can to help out before he adds to the stress.

[schrodingersghost]

/Sobs, the more their friendship levels up, the more the end of the month is going to hurt.

[phoenixwiz]

Isa will be very concerned and will do her best to rescue him from the fae wanting to keep him around. Also Jamie is not great with advice (whoops) so this should be fun.

[schrodingersghost]

Thanks, Isa. Rescue will be much appreciated.

Moral crisis complication here we come.

[phoenixwiz]

The Fae are not so prepared to handle an unhinged plant lady who can control plants and throw cacti like they’re basketballs.

Yeah, Jamie is having a major crisis of his own with wands, swimming speeds and slowly becoming a selkie via accidentally annoying the Seelie so he is pretty shaken too. And not in a great position to give advice ever.

[schrodingersghost]

Careful, Isa. The Fae might try to curse her.

[phoenixwiz]

Ppfft, possibly getting cursed into whatever is so going to be on brand for Isa these days.

[schoolingfish]

Luca won't be much of a help. But he will be getting kidnapped by the Fae this month, so he'll be there to offer moral support, and will probably share that time sirens tried to keep him and Alberto for pretty much the same reason!

[schrodingersghost]

Oh no Luca!

Solidarity, I guess. Depending on how this goes down Danny might try to use his ghost powers to sneak them both out, which will probably fail.

Re: Lel : Danny Fenton

[a_cute_batata]

And Luz, who is feeling pretty warm toward Danny since he humored her during her little possession, will absolutely be up for trying to rescue him! The good boy must be saved!

[schrodingersghost]

Awww, Luz. Danny will very much appreciate the help. He's going to be having a Time this month.

[a_cute_batata]

She's got your back!

[schrodingersghost]

Time to A. Find out he's even less human than he thought he was B., Get a couple more monster transformations triggered C., Get kidnapped by Fae who want to keep him and D., get a memory recall that its not even the first time he's been kidnapped for similar reasons

Its going to be a very rough month.

[a_cute_batata]

Man, that is a LOT. Yup, he'll definitely need some friends for this month.
