September Plotting & CR Post

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

OOC Housekeeping

• The Zodiac Network Post will go up September 1st, with a midmonth post going up September 15th. The monthly event log will be posted September 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 haven't gotten your free gacha from the August event, you have until the last day of August when the regain office closes (4pm EST) to do so!
• The Regain and Elemental Power/Monster Regain pages have been overhauled! Go ahead and check them out.
• The Flaw System is a new option at the Gacha Goodwill. Have your character take on a flaw in order to gain extra points! This is available during gacha goodwill weekends.

World Changes

• Blitzball is now a popular sport in Kaisou with its own specialized stadium.
• I-Waffle House, a restaurant that's mix of an I-Hop and a Waffle House.
• SOUP, which sells soup (maybe clothes?)
• Candy Crush is now available on the Libra app!
• A Catbus is now a form of public transit in the city.
• The coffee shop Central Perk is now available.
• Hyrule is now available as a stable gate!

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 September! Go ahead and sign up! If you haven't turned in quests for August gacha points, you can still do so until the end of the month! However, signing up for any August quests is now closed.

POKEGO Update
POKEGO had a busy month! Here are some of the things they accomplished:

• POKEGO now has access to a magic car that'll change its shape/appearance thanks to Yuuki. Requires a driver's license to use.


• Varian donated a Serenitea Pot to PICHU. This can be expanded using points from anyone in POKEGO and is going to be used to build habitat areas for Pokemon (ongoing project)


• Yuuki and Varian have been studying the Ultrahand ability in Hyrule, and thus has discovered a number of builds you can make with the ability. How...useful those builds are are anyone's guess.


• Thanks to Josuke's research, they have a better understanding of how to make healing elixirs from ingredients found in Hyrule.


• Thanks to Abasi, they now have an easier time translating texts written in some common Hyrule languages.


• Thanks to Persephone's uh, "friendship" building with the Gerudo, POKEGO has been sent a collection of Gerudo outfits that can be used by male members to enter the city.


• Sorey and Mikleo are now known as some of the Heroes of Hyrule thanks to their battle with Calamity Ganon. Thanks to this, they have a shining reputation in the realm.


• And Jun found a hole and fished some Black Order members out of it. Thanks Jun.

For this month, Professor Oak will be asking a request to use the upcoming spirit realm in order to seek out some answers regarding Professor Willow as a way to get some closure. Help out your grandfather if you have the time.

As always, you can check out updates to the PICHU facility here and information about Cygnus Academy here.

Black Order Update
The Black Order's August mission was a success! With Weissmann dead and his followers dealt with, this has struck a fatal blow to the Krusnik organization. It's near impossible that they'll be able to rebuild after all this. Zero, a former victim, is now currently traveling the world to eliminate any pocket cells that remain. Whatever helps you heal girl.

As for September's Mission, the Black Order will be asked to investigate the identity of Rukkhadevata, a name that the seers within the Order keep hearing. Through their investigations, they will discover that Rukkhadevata was a former Black Order member that left by erasing all memories of her existence- including the memories of those in Kaisou. It'll be up to the Black Order members to decide whether to leave her alone and say goodbye to those memories, or bring back the memories so she can be found. As usual, more details will be given in the discord and the result of the mission will be decided there.

Furthermore, this means starting in September, Black Order characters will have the option of leaving the Order. In order to leave, they will have two options:

• OPTION A: They make a deal with the Horned Statue in Hyrule and in exchange of their power, their status will change to be the same as a regular Paranormal AU and be allowed to leave the Order. For this option, characters will lose all their purchased regains and unspent regain points except for 6 points which they can spend on either retaining some powers or gaining new ones. They will also be allowed to keep up to 3 gacha/goodwill items and 3 monster changes. Since they are now just a paranormal AU, they will forget their past life memories once they drop/leave the app unless they find a way around that.
• OPTION B: They destroy their record books in the Great Library of Alexandria, erasing all the world's memories to their existence and thus making the Black Order forget they ever existed. This means any records or memories of the character will be deleted. For the sake of preserving CR, characters on the Libra app will be able to remember them existing. Characters who take this option will lose half of their purchased regains/unspent regain points, but will be allowed to keep all their gacha/goodwill items.

Black Order characters are required to be in the game 6 months before they can leave the Order, and this is a PERMANENT decision. If you're interested, please head over to the Changing Factions for more information.

Town Events
With it being a wind element month, expect some windy weather! At least it'll finally be cooler. The K-12 Schools and University will be starting their fall terms September 5th after Labor Day. Meanwhile Kaisou will have a Renaissance festival going on in Blue Fish Lake Park, for anyone who interested in attending.

Meanwhile in the stable gates, Stardew Valley will be moving into the autumn season with their own festival at the end of the month. Hyrule meanwhile will be thrilled about the Calamity being defeated. The characters that fought Ganon (Sorey, Mikleo, Caesar, Ana, Kohga, Lapis, Scintilla, Ritsuka, Isabela, Jonathan) will be specifically hailed as the heroes of Hyrule and there will be numerous stories told about them throughout the kingdom.

Fortunately or unfortunately, since most people did not witness the battle, they may not recognize the heroes for who they are if you talk to them. You might try to convince them, but it's likely introducing yourself will get a "Oh wow you have the same name as one of the heroes! That's crazy!". However, if you do manage to convince them of your identity, you'll be given discounts or free items- or you'll get attacked by the Yiga clan member. But hey isn't a little mortal danger worth some free stuff?

Full Moon Alert (ALL MONSTERS)
Starting with the next full moon (August 29th - August 31st) onward, all monster types will be affected by the full moon. This means characters will struggle to maintain their human form during the full moon and may be influenced by monster impulses more (depending on how well they can keep it in check). The reason for this occurring is the increasing Spirit energy within the city.


Gate Event: Great Library of Alexandria
For September's event, we will be revisiting the Great Library of Alexandria! This time, the muses have taken a holiday and have asked the characters to watch the library in their stead. It's optional if you actually help with the library, but damaging the library will result in getting cursed by the muses- so let us know in the questions section if you want to do that.

Just like last year, characters will be able to explore the library and enjoy it's wealth of knowledge, literature and art (and it's not just books!). While there'll be loads of entertainment in the library, characters will be able to access life records of any person who has died and is related to them (meaning Luke Skywalker could get a file about Anakin, but he couldn't get one about Obi Wan Kenobi). This does include relations not just by blood, but do require the character you're looking up to view your character as family. For AU characters, this includes records of their previous selves and their relatives.

October Interest Check
Finally our last note is a quick interest check! While the September plot is all ready to go, we're also working on the October plot in the background. Since October is Halloween season, we intend to have seasonally-themed plot - which means a horror-themed plot.

Since we understand our players have varying levels of horror preference, we've decided for October to have two logs like we did in August. The first log will be the main event log and will contain a spirit realm event while seasonally appropriate, it will definitely be much tamer on the spooky scale. Rest assured, there'll be lots to do, and anything relevant to the metaplot will be happening in this log so no one will miss anything important.

The second log meanwhile will entail a horror plot based on Cabin in the Woods/Until Dawn/etc in which a group of characters will disappear for four days and be subjected to a more heavy duty horror plot involving plenty of things like death, violence, mental anguish, etc. This part of the plot is ENTIRELY opt-in, and participation in this side of the plot does not stop you from getting involved with the other log!

That said, if you are interested in taking part in the second more heavy-duty log, please comment to the October event comment below! This is purely an interest check and not a definite sign up (that will come next plotting post). We're just trying to get a rough headcount so we can scale this side of the plot accordingly (as a horror plot catered to 10 characters is going to work differently than one that's meant for 40). And due to the content of this event, we ask that any characters participating be at least 16 years of age.

QUESTIONS

[kaisoumods]

Got a question about the month? Ask them here!

[jackdawvision]

would stealing a book from the library count as damaging the library? because Edward is going to want to take Caroline's book home at the very least. sobs into wifey book.

[prunedworlds]

... So, say one of the characters who participated in the Ganon fight has a reasonably distinctive marking of some sort. While presumably the average citizen in Hyrule might still be a bit skeptical/need some convincing that this is indeed the real deal, would it be reasonable to assume that Yiga might be more inclined to just attack first and question later?

[arsenist]

hello, I have two questions for the library!

1. hypothetically speaking... if somebody snuck a book out of the library, would it count as damage or at least something that would require some sort of penalty 👀

2. would a temporary guardian count for a family member... thinking of Sojiro for this in particular, who watches over Akira for the entirety of his probation (in terms of his viewing Akira as family, I think the biggest thing that counts toward it is that Sojiro outright calls Akira his family at the end of his confidant/social link)

OCTOBER INTEREST CHECK

[kaisoumods]

If you are interested in participating in the more heavy duty horror log in October, please comment here! This isn't a definite sign up, just an interest check so we know how to scale the plot.

Thanks!

[jackdawvision]

horror plot you say

LET'S GOOOOOOO

Re: OCTOBER INTEREST CHECK

[callmekacchan]

Heck yes. Give me the horror. 👀

Edward Kenway | Assassin's Creed

[jackdawvision]

Player Name: Effy
Contact: mollymauktealeaf
Time zone: UTC+8

Character Name: Edward Kenway
Canon: Assassin's Creed
Type: OU
About: Local pirate from the Golden Age of Piracy learns about his world's big myth arc and initially is just like OH COOL FREE CASH, and then he grows up as a person and realizes maybe that was not the best first reaction to have. Edward is not quite an Assassin just yet, but the death of his friend Mary Read (and the months-long bender he was on before he got dragged here) has triggered something of an epiphany for him, and now he's trying to become a somewhat better person than the selfish little asshole he was before. His success is variable, but hey he's trying. in-game, he now works at the Vogue Theater and in his spare time runs around rooftops and jumps off buildings for kicks. people keep swearing up and down there's a guy in a hood who keeps jumping into dumpsters.
Event Plans: the Library of Alexandria has records of everyone in Edward's family, you say? he's most likely going to check out Caroline's records, and then go down a rabbit hole and end up checking out like, his kids' records and quite possibly his grandson Connor's as well if he finds out that he has A Goddamn Grandson too.
Anything else?

[whiteshroud]

So I don't know when exactly, but Jun wears a uniform like the one in my icon and hangs out on rooftops just because.


So at some point we gotta spiderman meme this shit.

Character Name: Danny Fenton
Canon: Danny Phantom
Type: Normal AU
About: Part Fae part ghost part human reincarnated teen hero. He's permanently confused by his existence, but he's mostly dealing with it.

Event Plans:
Hanging out in the library. He may go looking for relations life stories... and discover that he had a clone/cousin sister. This is fine.

Last month Danny discovered that he can't eat salt any more, so he will be continuing trying to figure out how to cook to work around that.

Danny will also be developing his ice powers this month. He may need a little help figuring out how to get them under control.

[senorita_perfecta]

Player Name: Mari
Contact: mariscorner, mariscorner on Discord
Time zone: PhST

Character Name: Isabela Madrigal
Canon: Encanto
Type: OU
About: Former golden child turned unhinged plant lady with the power of EARTH. Is also one of the only two Madrigals left in Kaisou and it too weighs heavily on her.
Event Plans: September will be the 1 year anniversary of her Kaisou (re-)arrival. She will be checking out the Renfair and visiting Alexandria. May or may not involve tearing up on Pedro’s file, RIFP her dear heart.

Character Name: Jamie Carter (Harry Potter)
Canon: Harry Potter
Type: Paranormal AU
About: A soon to be third year journalism student who has water magic and is unfortunately cursed to be stuck as a selkie. He has no idea yet that he used to be the Chosen One of the Wizarding World.
Event Plans: This is going to be Jamie’s first full moon and he is so going to hate it a lot. Especially with him starting school soon.

He is also going to be at the library and finds that he had dead parents and very unpleasant relatives in his old life. Oof. Might involve regaining memories of the Restricted Section. He is probably going to seek out an internship for his third year course too.

Anything Else: Both of them are open for quests. So feel free to drop a quest plan down below.

TF | Varian & Zulius

[bebest]

Player Name: TF
Contact: teeff or teefflady
Time zone: GMT

Character Name: Varian
Canon: Tangled
Type: OU
About: Teen alchemist, former villain, trying his best even if he's a hot mess. Currently an apprentice in POKEGO. Tends to blow things up a low. High int, zero wis.
Event Plans: As was the case last year, Varian is banned from the Library - because some people should not have access to all the knowledge in the world, ever - and he's gonna be pissy about that. Again. He will attend the Ren Faire because that's about as close to his old home world as he can get. He'll also be willing to help anyone dealing with the full moon messing with them- as he's been handling this for months now as a werewolf.


Character Name: Zulius
Canon: Centaurworld
Type: Paranormal AU
About: Zebra centaur who's a Queen with a capital Q. He owns the Vogue Theatre in the city. Catty but with a heart of gold.
Event Plans: He's gonna go to the library and spend DAYS learning about his herd in his past life. If anyone wants to be dragged over and be told some of the most batshit stories imaginable, you're in for a treat! He'll also be checking out other areas of the library. He'll check out the Ren Faire if only so he can eat all the food there. He also has the hoofed animal communication now (along with animal hate), so he'll learn that the fun way here!
Anything else?

[schrodingersghost]

Danny's going to be super annoyed that he gets to deal with wings and feeling more mischievous every month now. But he'd probably be interested in going to the fair (as a distraction from all the other nonsense he gets to deal with this month).

And he'd probably be happy to swap stories of remembering nonsense worlds with Zulius. He'll be finding out all about his clone cousin and all the other nonsense that went along with that.

Bon | Takame, Eunie, Diarmuid

[twofoldfury]

Player Name: Bon
Contact: bonpuns @ discord
Time zone: EST

[twofoldfury]

Character Name: Diarmuid o'lastname
Canon: Fate/ (servantswap AU)
Type: OU
About: Hero of Irish Folklore. Extremely hot but like as a plot device. Chivalrous and honorable. Full of regret and empty of self worth. Enjoys a fight maybe too much. Has a big storm coming. WAVER'S BOYFRIEND???
Event Plans: Technically Dia's entire history has long since been recorded in regular ass books but he would probably still go into the Library anyway because I want to start planting some very mean seeds of him figuring the base canon out. Aside from that I wanna focus on him branching out a bit more this month so he'll be my focus unless some other wild shit happens.

I forgot to mention he's also gonna be seen around Kaisou U a lot since he's gonna be an assistant to ol Wavington so.
Anything else?

Yuff | Elliot, Jun & Velvet

[whiteshroud]

Player Name: Yuff
Contact: neutronstar, discord server.
Time zone: US Central

General FYI my own RL is shaping to be kinda hectic this coming month, so most of my plans are pretty loose and tentative! Should not affect anything on the mod end though unless something drastic happens.

Character Name: Elliot Craig
Canon: Trails of Cold Steel
Type: Normal AU but what is normal.
About: A music teacher at Kaisou University and part time performer at the Vogue. Elliot is a friendly and kind person who likes to help people! He's very ride or die for his castmates from Class VII, and it's also ready to murder if needed. He's cursed with anxiety and also being a cat.
Event Plans: Elliot was around for this plot last year, so he's already familiar with his own records. He'll be probably very focused on the music areas of the library, and helping out his friends. He is also going to be teaching PART TIME starting this year, so he can have more energy to focus on his music since he no longer has to make mortgage payments.

Character Name: Jun Kohinata (AU name: Jun Nightroad)
Canon: Tokyo Xanadu
Type: Paranormal AU
About: College student by day, holy knight by night. Jun is a quiet boy with troubled past and a freakish amount of power. He's currently studying botany in college and doing an apprenticeship with POKEGO. Also he's a big anime nerd. Is frequently accompanied by Mikleo, who he has a pact with.
Event Plans: Jun isn't touching his records with a ten foot pole. Just Nope. He knows better than that. So he's going to spend the month reading the mass collection of fanfics and helping POKEGO with their mission. He'll also go to the Renn festival and attend school.

Character Name: Velvet Crowe
Canon: Tales of Berseria
Type: Tales of Berseria
About: A once normal girl who had everything taken away when her brother-in-law murdered her little brother and she turned into a demon. She joined the Black Order with the intent of locating her brother-in-law and getting her revenge. She is a fucking mess.
Event Plans: After much consideration she will NOT be looking into her brother-in-law's records to find his location due to her not wanting to acknowledge they are family. This is good because there's a big spoiler in there that'd wreck a lot of shit. Instead she'll be focusing on the Rukkhadevata mission and being her usual self.

Fae | August, Yusuke, Ash, Yuuki

[drewthetower]

Player Name: Fae
Contact: DM or Discord
Time zone: US Central

Character Name: August Villareal
Canon: OC
Type: Paranormal AU
About: Local neighborhood half-demon tailor witch and seer. Runs Cygnus Academy with Waver. Is always tired.
Event Plans: Not much! Hitting up the ren faire for sure, probably going in every couple of days to get people out of the library.

Character Name: Yusuke Kitagawa
Canon: Persona 5
Type: Normal AU
About: Art boy turned art teacher turned artist HE IS TEACHING PART TIME FROM NOW ON FUCK YEAH thank you free real estate. Also he is dating Takame
Event Plans: ART otherwise not much. Maybe looking into his family's past in the library?

Character Name: Ash Carbide/Ashley Cabott
Canon: Trails of Cold Steel
Type: Paranormal AU, OU
About: Belligerent good boy who is very fight-y but means well. Also recovering from getting rid of his possessor finally.
Event Plans: He is going to be leaving the Black Order by way of the Horned Statue!

Character Name: Yuuki Shinomiya
Canon: Tokyo Xanadu
Type: Paranormal AU
About: Small sassy lost child turned sassy PGO tech guru. Does not like outside. or people
Event Plans: Someone drag him out of the library please--

[twofoldfury]

august its ok you and takame dont have to throw waver out the window this time

speaking of takame he still needs to teach yusuke how to fight better we should do stuff with that and also with the full moon bringing the dragon out more cause he's gonna be a lil scared

Saffy | Amal, Mikleo, Zhongli, and Blade

[unreachableside]

Player Name: Saffy
Contact: fonfabre // fonfabre @ discord
Time zone: Pacific Time (GMT-7)

Character Name: Amal Vasiya (thavnairian)
Canon: Final Fantasy XIV (OC)
Type: OU
About: Local cryptid, god puncher (ret.), and also the guy who got cursed by a goddess last time they visited because he twerked for her.
Event Plans: Amal is not too enthusiastic about going back into the Library considering his last experience, so he's going to check out the Renn Faire and maybe punch some bad guys in Hyrule for a bit.

Character Name: Mikleo (reenforces)
Canon: Tales of Zestiria
Type: POKEGO AU
About: Mikleo's life got turned upside down when he was 16 and became an invisible nature spirit overnight. He's been with POKEGO for 12 years and admired Willow right up until That Incident, and the fallout from that still haunts him. In order to travel freely he has a pact with Jun and Sorey that allows him to hitch a ride inside their bodies (it's a long story), so threads with either of them may or may not contain Mikleo too.
Event Plans: Mikleo burned with jealousy when he read about the Library of Alexandria in the reports so I expect he won't come out of there unless forced. Also stuff wrt Willow and probably his old partner, too.

Character Name: Zhongli (lapislazily)
Canon: Genshin Impact
Type: Black Order AU
About: Zhongli is by far the oldest AU bastard in the game, having lived during the Three Kingdoms era (circa 215 AD) and cartwheeled through history like a rock. During the school year (which is starting up) he is a history professor at the university, though his real job is being the grandpa of the Black Order.
Event Plans: Zhongli will be spending time in the Library whether he likes it or not, honestly. He has some things to consider.

Character Name: Blade (unreachableside)
Canon: Honkai: Star Rail
Type: Paranormal AU
About: Blade is a craftsman who suffered so much pain that his memory fragmented and he went insane, becoming an obsessive and vengeful man with a desire to end his own immortality. This turned him from a person with white hair into a person with black hair for some reason (?????) which is why you'll see both in my icons, lol. In his AU he's still an amnesiac, but his madness is due to possession by a demon, and he hasn't lost his creative spark.
Event Plans: Blade's primary concern is getting a forge (with gas and electricity!) up and running in Hyrule so that he can service the Black Order's weapons and armor as agreed. He'll also be spending a good amount of time in the Library looking up his past life and trying to make sense of what shitty god decided to make him a double amnesiac and also why he wants to kill a dragon guy. Fun times.
Anything else?

Character Name: Souta Suzukaze
Canon: Otogi Juushi Akazukin
Type: Normal AU
About: A gentle high school student who speaks to plants, Souta is a soft yet supportive person to be around. Inside him is a strong magical artifact that reacts to intense emotions. He was being cautious last month and managed to avoid any trouble.
Event Plans: With school starting, he'll be attending fewer classes at the Cygnus Academy but still around the study areas. Souta will be visiting Stardew Valley regularly but also interested in visiting the other stable gates, now that there's another. He may read up more on his past life since he wants to know more about his mysterious powers. The Renaissance festival will also be a grand old time for this fantasy nerd.
Anything else? Overall, a calm but fun month.

Character Name: Eve
Canon: Black Cat
Type: OU
About: Created as a bioweapon, Eve was traveling with the bounty hunters who rescued her until arriving in Kaisou. A quiet bookworm with a hidden competitive streak. During the Krusnik plot, she spent her time with the cottage crew plus the Auguries. She has moved back to the Zodiac apartments (for now).
Event Plans: Once the space is ready, Eve will be moving in more permanently with Vash and crew. She's also gonna sign up for school finally! While she might want to visit Hyrule now that things have calmed down, the library will get the majority of her attention. Seriously, she'll probably spend all her free time there. Also SIDE QUESTS.
Anything else? While I want to give her some time to settle in first, I'm contemplating a canon update. Her CR is welcome to weigh in on if/when this would work best.

Character Name: Ritsuka Fujimaru
Canon: Fate/Grand Order
Type: OU
About: Cheerful and friendly but with a fair bit of trauma and emotional pain buried under that. Spending over 3 years trying to save the world from increasingly dire threats instead of going to high school will do that to you. She's... kind of trying to settle in for the long haul in Kaisou; it's debatable how well she's really succeeding.
Event Plans: Ritsuka will definitely want to check out the library, though there won't really be anyone worth her looking up, alas. Really though I don't have much for concrete plans beyond throwing her at anything that looks interesting and seeing what happens!
Anything else? Seeing as it's the start of the school year, this might be the perfect time for someone to end up confronting her about the fact that thanks to dealing with world-ending threats she never actually finished high school....

Character Name: Rose
Canon: FFXIV (WoL OC)
Type: OU
About: Salty healer! She had a bad time last month, so she's still recovering. But as always, Rose is ride or die for her friends. Due to how actually terrible last month was for her, she's dropped the "tsun" part of "tsundere" for a bit. She is not happy about this.
Event Plans: Gonna have a chill month, probably hanging out at the ren faire! She doesn't have any interest in the library and anything she learns would probably upset her. She's still struggling a little bit and will probably panic walking anywhere alone, so she's going to cling to her friends at the festival like her life depended on it. She's also going to discover that she's still somewhat decent at shooting, but probably not as good as she remembers while playing the faire games.
Anything else? I don't have any gif :(


Character Name: Inazuma Ei
Canon: Genshin Impact
Type: Black Order AU
About: What if god lived next door to you and was also a shut-in? Congratulations, you've just met Inazuma Ei. Note: She is stronger than she looks. While you were sleeping, she was chugging Mountain Dew and studying the blade.
Event Plans:. hanks to some pow-wows with her god buds, she's decided that she needs to get out more and experience more things. The bulk of this month for her is going to be concentrated on the Black Order plot, but she'll actually be around town a little bit.
Anything else? still no gif :(

[asipofbride]

Player Name: Jackals
Contact: DM me, discord @ tothejackals

Character Name: Nicholas D. Wolfwood
Canon: Trigun Stampede
Type: OU
About: feral desert undertaker assassin Judas-allegory turned mother of two roams around Kaisou on a motorcycle, sometimes toting a cross that's as big as he is, doing odd jobs and probably being annoying in public with a man in a red coat.
Event Plans: Wolfwood'll go to the library because he's never seen one and the kids promised to take him to the library before uhhh people got kidnapped but he might not stay for long especially once he starts getting into the family archives side of things; he'll also be roaming Kaisou looking for work because his boss is doing stuff and he needs to provide for his two children.

Character Name: Gilgamesh
Canon: Fate: Grand Order
Type: Paranormal AU
About: golden king who's better than everybody at everything reincarnates into a man who's richer than god and slowly regaining memories of being a golden king who's better than everybody at everything while putting together an arsenal to match.
Event Plans: Gil'll visit the library at least briefly, read something about Enkidu, and then Gil will leave the library before he does something that gets his ass cursed. beyond that, he'll be out in Hyrule looking for Koroks because this inventory system was meant for him and he's goin' into that hole whether he likes it or not. if something's weird enough he can probably be persuaded into giving it at least a college try.

Anything else?

[advivo]

Character Name: Dante.
Canon: Devil May Cry.
Type: OU
About: Local whacky wahoo pizza man hunts demons for a living with his arsenal of devil arms (made from the souls of very powerful demons he has killed) and sometimes maybe saves the world... or specifically saves a city. He was in the midst of running around the Underworld with Vergil when he was tossed into Kaisou and found that oh, his brother is here actually?? so is his nephew?? he's now adjusting to life in Kaisou because this place isn't all that bad and he's somehow managed to find himself horribly attached to two desert idiots as well as many other new friends.
Event Plans: Dante is going to be chilling for the most part, although he is probably going to investigate the library because he is a nosy bitch who actually likes having information at his fingertips.

Event Plans:

• waiting to hear back from mods for this one... but I kind of want to have Akira attempt to take a book from the library, hopefully with consequences?! (ideally the one that has the account of Sojiro's life in it, but an extensive book on plants is also suitable) Akira has been very Good Boy in his AU life compared to his OU one, so I wanna mix that up a little bit

• related to above, if Akira can access Sojiro's book I may have a bigger mem regain this month than what I've been doing so far... still nothing too huge, but most of what Akira's remembered so far hasn't been super significant yet

• I have absolutely no plans for mixing this in with the event stuff but Akira got this from free gacha last month and I want to do something with it so bad. please wildcard something with me or hit up his inbox if anybody wants to do something silly 🥺🙏

• God help me I'm actually going to remember to regain Akira's punishment cop outfit this month or I'm gonna lose it

• anything else is free reign!! hit me up if you wanna do anything special :3

Anything else? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ idk pretend I wasn't on my way to bed and put something funny here

About: Part Finn part eldritch octopus spider, Fern is a very fighty boy who is made out of grass. He loves weapons of all kinds and adventuring.
Event Plans: He might hang out a little in the Library, maybe find info on his/Finn's sort-of-dead bio mom Minerva. He'll also probably attend the ren faire for funsies.
Anything else? I believe he's technically graduating high school so he'll need a job or something to do during the day lol. He currently volunteers as a crossing guard for little kids.

Character Name: Alberto
Canon: Pixar's Luca
Type: OU

About: soon-to-be 16-year-old sea monster boy who grew up on an island in isolation with a lousy father who abandoned him, leaving Alberto to take care of himself... but four years later, and after nearly two years living in human society now, he's been able to live out his fantasies and indulge his fascination with life on land, has found the love he's missed all his life over and over again in so many people, in both found family and new best friends, who all helped this young fish out of water build himself some solid ground to stand on... And at long last, this month Alberto is fulfilling his dream of getting a Vespa. 🥲

Event Plans:
• Library of Alexandria will be fantastic again! He loved it last year, so he'll go ham just as much this year.
• High school...! oh my god Alberto is in high school, fjslnk. He'll be going into 9th grade with a much better attitude than he'd had in 8th grade. Whatever the start of the school year brings, he'll be amped up about this, too!
• On 25 September, Alberto turns 16! His friends will be throwing him a birthday party, anyone who'd like to come to that is welcome, ota. More to come closer to the date, but an IC planning post will be up soon-ish.
• And on 26 September... this kid is booking it to the Vespa dealership with five thousand dollars in cash he and Luca have diligently saved up over the past year and a half in Kaisou, and they're finally buying their Vespa. So he'll spend the last week of the month cruising around town nonstop, he'll most definitely insist on giving everyone he knows a ride on his new baby! ☆ Alberto will never walk anywhere again lol... ✨🛵👨🏽‍🤝‍👨🏻

Anything else?
Appropriate that this will be such a monumental month for Alberto... because it will be his last here at Kaisou. His narrative here has come to a really wonderful wrap, after an inspiring and fulfilling run playing with all of you since last March. Thank you so much for the lovely stories and memories, entertaining me through many changing phases in my personal life, and sharing your enthusiasm writing with each other! It's been a blast. I'll continue backtags here for however long, but won't be starting anything new set in October. Feel free to add me on plurk, anyone who'd like to keep in touch! I'll hopefully be picking Alberto up afresh at Labyrinthum before long, so I'm sure I'll see some of you there. If not... a presto! Til our next game together. Ciao a tutti, e grazie mille~ ♥

Ugh. Luz is going to be a mess seeing Alberto go. She's going to miss him so much. Playing Luz against him brought me so much joy, and I'll be sad to see you go:(

But! I definitely hope we can have one last encounter with these two, and then Luz can at least see him and Luca off properly!

About: Aspiring witch girl trying to put her everyday life in perspective! She's been here a little while and is still very much adjusting.

Event Plans: This is going to be my last hurrah for Luz before I have her disappear off into the sunset. I've been here a while and between losing some key people and Luz not quite knowing where she'd fit in, I thought it best to give her one month to tie up some friendships and fun before she disappears. It was fun here, and I was glad to have Luz try to brighten things up where she could!
