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.

lol! I’d love for them to bump into each other during this event and talk about it, yes!

And I’d be down for a side quest too haha Alberto isn’t the luckiest either. Sounds like fun.

[schrodingersghost]

Haha, expect Danny to be more than a little salty about the whole thing. He didn't ask for any of this.

Great! Any preference on a quest?

[prontissimo]

lmao they'll have such different feelings, I love this.
Alberto's one of the few who's just like YAY THE FAE rofl he's def in the minority here... and he insisted on working in the palace last year like he was staff, so he didn't get mixed up in all the action, he was just like. Doing Dishes in the Kitchen rofl. so he's blissfully out of the loop on how horrible it was for everyone else...

And oooh I think they could have fun with the River one with the flower! Since I think I'm doing the kelp quest with Luz and Luca both. Danny's never seen Alberto in his sea monster form (j-just a handmade costume of his sea monster form with makeup and paper scales from Halloween lmao) and Alberto's never seen any of Danny's powers in action, so that's a mutually bonding opportunity perhaps. What do you think?

[schrodingersghost]

Danny wasn't even here for the Fae stuff last year, and he won't know anything about being a Fae himself until he runs into them in the park. Then next thing he knows one of them will be speedrunning him through the rest of his transformation and then getting kidnap-adopted. And then getting memory recalled of his canon self's problems with his arch enemy trying to kidnap-adopt him.

/sobs, hes going to be so done with everything.

That sounds like a plan! And between the two of them they might succeed.
