March Plotting & CR Post
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. An event log will be posted on March 4th.
- If you haven't already, please remember to check in for activity! Activity is due by the end of the month!
- For anyone whose obtained a Vision through gacha goodwill, a guide on how to use them has been written up!
- 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!
World Changes
- The TM Thunderfang is now available for eligible pokemon!
- The Krusty Krab can be found in the bottom of Kaisou's harbor off the beach.
- Spirit Trees can now be found around Cathedral Hill
Side quests
Side quests for March are now available! February quests are now no longer available to sign up for, but you can redeem quest logs for gacha points.
POKEGO Update
POKEGO had a productive month, between helping the Black Order resolve the Love potion fiasco and also helping out with Cupid. For the month of March, they've been requested in assisting with the Fae and try to further research that.... special culture.
As always, you can check out updates to the PICHU facility here and information about Cygnus Academy here.
Black Order Update
Black Order has had an eventful month! After sealing a nefarious love potion maker, the potion maker met an unfortunate accident at the hands of Ardyn. Oh no. So sad. Meanwhile, the Zealot Teresa made her presence known in Kaisou... much to the joy of everyone.
This month, the Black Order will be tasked with doing what they can to make sure the Fae stay in their realm and resolving whatever new issue they have now. Not only that but sometime during this month, the dead body of Teresa will be making an appearance. Stay tune!
City Events
Spring time is here in Kaisou. To mark the arrival of spring, there will be celebrations for St. David's Day, St. Patrick's Day, and the Equinox. The Equinox in particular will have a festival in Blue Fish Lake Park where there will be various shrines to nature and spring deities set up. If you happen to know any, maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea to set one up...
Otherwise, March marks the month of Easter! To celebrate, there will be an easter egg hunt! Unfortunately someone's gotten a little too zealous and enchanted the eggs to have lil legs. Oops!
Free Monster Changes
March has become our monster month, and so the tradition continues! Starting now and ending March 31st, every character is eligible for 3 free monster changes*. There is no maximum point value on these changes, and you can also unlock a second monster type free of charge for the month. We have recently overhauled and added more monster changes to be purchased, so please check those out!
Any free monster changes should be redeemed through the regain post. Thanks!
* God-related regains are not eligible for free regains
Spirit Realm Event: Tír na nóg
Along with the free monster changes, comes our very favorite pains in the asses- that's right, the fae are back! This year, the Fae have decided to settle their differences by holding the Fae Olympics .... which basically means they'll be kidnapping/strongarming people into competing into various dangerous competitions for them.
Characters will be sorted into two teams: Characters who are Fire, Earth or Light element will be on Team Seelie and be given light colored cottagecore uniforms. Meanwhile characters who are Water, Wind or Shadow element will be Team Unseelie and dress like a bunch of goths. Characters who don't have an element will get their team chosen via coinflip.
These competitions include:
- A Dance competition (with ribbons)
- A marathon
- A duel between libra app users
Characters who partake in this plot will be expected to compete in at least ONE of these competitions (but are welcome to compete in all of them!). As for the duel, these will be 1v1 or 2v2 duels in which characters will face off against each other in fights where they will be allowed all their powers and weapons. There will be healers around (either fae or player-characters), but if you go so hard you kill each other... the death permission post is here.
Players are welcomed to decide amongst themselves which characters are dueling and can duel as many times as they like. For anyone who threads out a duel, they can turn in the thread to the regain post and gain a free regain that's worth 3 points or less from an element different from their own. Threads must contain at least 3 comments from your character, and you can only turn in one thread per character for a free regain.
The free regain offer is open to any character that participates in the duel, regardless of who wins or loses. There are no rewards to winning, so we ask that everyone please handle this part of the plot in a calm and mature manner. If you need help deciding who will win/lose your match, please comment below and the mods will happily do a coin toss.

gonna be a lazy bitch and c/p the about bits from the previous plotting post hi I'm very tired.
Character Name: Edward Kenway
Canon: Assassin's Creed
Type: OU
About: local pirate stumbles right into his series' big myth arc by complete accident and undergoes the most painful character development arc in that series by far. has been taken right after breaking out of prison and having to carry a good friend's corpse out with him, and on top of that he learned recently about his wife's death, so he's a little fucked up about that, and is slowly thinking about hey maybe the Assassins were not, in fact, wrong.
Event Plans: Edward is also sitting out March's big event for the most part, but not bc he's taking a break, he's been selected to Do A Murder this month so haha that's gonna. be happening soon. he'll only inform like two people it was him outright and keep his trap shut for the most part, and the method of assassination is a lot more subtle than "descend from on high to kill someone," but his CR is free to guess it was him since he has a lot of motive. he just won't be confirming it!
also he'll be mourning his poor chunky rum and trying to fight a crab for it.
Character Name: Lucy Westenra
Canon: Dracula
Type: Paranormal Modern AU
About: your resident friendly and slightly possessed radio host! she currently lives with her cousin Meredith and her friend
and crushPersephone.her past life is Lucy Westenra, aka the sweet ingenue in Dracula who has THREE suitors (fuck yeah) and a bad case of turning-into-vampire-itis (less yay). she has not said shit about that yet but I'm waiting for it to drop with great anticipation.
Event Plans: I'm gonna lean harder into her radio station job and have her show up to cover the celebrations in the park, and run around collecting Easter eggs that have LEGS why do they have LEGS good LORD. otherwise she's just gonna vibe this month and I'm planning to focus mostly on low-key threads with her.
Character Name: Leon Scott Kennedy
Canon: Resident Evil
Type: Black Order AU
About: rookie cop's first week on the job goes completely to hell, and in the aftermath, to save his friend, he ends up signing up for the Black Order. incidentally, in his past life, his first day on the job ALSO went to hell, but that was bc of zombies and this time around it was bc of demons. came to Kaisou in December and simply decided to join in on the revolution fun bc he's sick of the Order's shit and believes in changing it for the better.
Event Plans: besides the inevitable fallout from Teresa's death (all the more reason for him to want to punt Edward through a window), Leon will also be whisked away to join the Fae Olympics! the Faelympics. he'll be very careful with his words, and as a Light-element guy he'll be whisked into Team Seelie, pls save him from the cottagecore vibes he will Melt. he's good with marathons and if they unleash monsters he will protect both Seelie and Unseelie team members. I'm also gonna sign him up for a duel if people want a Normal/Hard mode fight—challenging, but not unbeatable.
Character Name: Noctis Lucis Caelum
Canon: Final Fantasy XV
Type: Normal Modern AU
About: local game developer is Going Through It, from having been fired last year to his dad dying in November to finding out that it was demons that killed him to dealing with Ardyn to going through the Crystal Tower to standing watch over the gate during the whole thing with Blade to finding out his close friend had a near-death experience. so he's been having a rough time, in between fishing and putting a game together and putting a gaming company together. but at least he has an Oshawott named Fluvius!
his past life, not that he knows much about it, is that of a prince who went on a road trip to go get married to his childhood crush and then his home got wrecked in a surprise attack while he was away, and now he and his friends are on the run from the Empire, and on top of that there's this whole prophecy thing? and also he is kind of another fantasy Jesus figure? yeah, two fantasy Jesus figures in one game, thanks, FF.
he's still working on the fishing game.
Event Plans: ALSO getting into Faelympics! unlike Leon, who will be having a pretty okay time all things considered, Noctis is going to have to deal with a memory dump and is gonna be.......uh, well, A Teeny Bit Shaky about it. also his cousin and his old babysitter are coming in soon so he's going to have a very weird March re-adjusting to All Of That.
Anything else?
me on my way to stab ur npc
