Also starting today with January side quests, the quest reward has been up to 2 gacha pulls per side quest thread that's been turned in!
New Year, New Posts
As we enter Kaisou's third year, we will be updating some of the OOC paperwork posts! We do this on an annual basis to posts that garner a lot of comment traffic as dreamwidth posts tend to start having issues once it reaches a certain number of comments. Plus, some posts just need to be updated as they get cluttered with outdated information.
The following posts have ALREADY received a new post:
The following WILL receive a new post within the next week:
If you still need access to the old regain post or the old gacha goodwill to complete AC, links to the old posts can be found on the new posts. We will also drop them here for easy access: Old Regain Post, Old Gacha Goodwill post.
POKEGO Update
It's been a quiet month for POKEGO! There isn't much in the ways of update, but they will be asked to help with investigations of the upcoming event.
As always, you can check out updates to the PICHU facility here and information about Cygnus Academy here.
Black Order Update
If you've lost your mind or have committed a crime, recruitment for the Black Order is now available!
As for the mission for January, the Black Order is continuning to amp up it's interest in Kaisou. As such, the higher ups will be requesting information about each of the Warriors of Light and FFXIV characters that are within their game. Stuff like basic background, abilities, general temperament - the works. They are particularly interested in any connections they might have to the Crystal Tower.
City Events
January is a Water element month, and since it's the middle of winter- you can expect things to be extremely cold. Many days will be in the single digits if not below zero (Fahrenheit). As per annual tradition, the city will be holding a winter carnival that includes ice fishing, games at the Gold Saucer, and even an ice palace with an ice inn should you wish to sleep in the cold.
Spirit Realm Event: Crystal Tower
January's Spirit Realm Event will be based on Final Fantasy! The Crystal Tower from FFXIV will be showing up in the middle of Central Square. It'll be up to Libra app users to clear out the tower of any dangers as well as unlock any puzzles within. This plot will contain many elements from the Final Fantasy franchise ranging from sphere puzzles, triad card tournaments, and doing an opera performance.
Notably, the Crystal Tower will remain in Kaisou after the plot is over, and is open to be used as a potential place to convert into PC housing or to study the tower to help with solutions for the "falling into the spirit realm" problem, though both things will take longer than just January to prepare.
Final Note
Finally, Yuff here with a quick note. This plot marks the third anniversary of Kaisou! Three years ago, I started Kaisou as a place to RP with friends, but I wasn't sure how long it'd last. Thanks to every player in this game, former and current, it's reached it's third year and is still going strong. So I want to thank every single one of you guys. It's been an absolute joy rping with everyone, and modding the game (and an extra thank you to the mod team for helping). I really look forward to seeing what 2024 has in store!
Plotting Comment
Feel free to use this form below to set up any plotting for the month!
Bon | Takame, Eunie, Diarmuid, Ragna
Contact: bonpuns @ everywhere
Time zone: EST
Character Name: Takame Kesi
Canon: FFXIV
Type: OU
About: Warrior of Light that fought Santa and lacks hinges but is a very polite bean who does his best in all aspects of life.
Event Plans: So, naturally Takame is heavily involved with the Crystal Tower so he's going to be helping with the expeditions into it. As for future plans with it, he's not the kind of person to make them. But he will lend his strength where he can. Basically though he will be very worried considering the Tower is fucking here and anyone has access to it. Raha, what the fuck.
Character Name: Eunie
Canon: Xenoblade 3
Type: POKEGO AU former Black Order
About: Medic Bird Girl with a short temper and no bullshit tolerance but will make sure you're patched up and ready to go no matter what.
Event Plans: I didn't do much with Eunie in December cause I got... sick... but she might also take a back seat this month while I figure out what direction I want her to go in. That being said she does have a feral cat and a bunch of shut-ins to domesticate. :)
Character Name: Diarmuid ua Duibhne
Canon: Fate/ (servantswap AU)
Type: OU
About: Hero of Irish Folklore with negative self worth and love related trauma that still has all of it and more to give to his friends.
Event Plans: Dia may be around somewhat passively wrt event things but one of his friends is a WOL and he's got some investigations into TBO he wants to do himself so he's going to be on that train.
Character Name: Ragna the Bloodedge
Canon: BlazBlue
Type: Paranormal AU
About: Constantly pissed off vengeance seeker with no one to vengeance against and thus is wandering aimlessly and forcibly thinking about his emotions.
Event Plans: Ragna is 100% not interested but I still want him out there more because this bitch needs more friends and I will get them for him. That's a threat.
Anything else?
