PLOT WITH ME/ENABLE ME PLZ

Welcome to Expiation's CR meme! This is a post where players can plot with each other on the direction they'd like to go for the month, and so on and so forth. There's a form below for you to fill out below, so get plotting!

We're trying something new for this month, including an EMP element since it's an app month! We have an APP THIS PLEASE and ENABLE ME PLEASE in the comments below with a form, so if you're interested in participating, use the form and comment under the subject title applicable. Other than that, the regular comments will go as a normal CR meme would!

The SOTG for October is here, with changes and where the game is going for the month.

OCTOBER HAPPENINGS

MORE

COMING SOON TO THEATERS: OCTOBER TDM
New arrivals will find themselves in Pessiria Forest this go-around, and while the somewhat creepy happenings from the fog have let up quite a bit, they're not gone entirely. There's a chill in the air, and local events are sure to put a chill down your spine to match.

HARVEST TIME
The tables have turned and now the crops would like to eat YOU! Killer tomatoes, sour apples, and angry onions are just a taste of what's in store. Newcomers might find themselves in need of a helping hand to defend their very lives and figure out the source of these mysteriously carnivorous crops.

Who's up for a feast after all of this is done? (Are those veggies still good to eat, do you think…?)

CREATURE FEATURE
Newcomers and resident Chosen alike are asked to use their fancy new tablets to catalog new fauna for a variety of rewards: money, goods/services, increased favor, etc. Problem is, what you're finding is...........weird. Spliced animals, chimeras, catdogs, all sorts of strange creatures seem to be appearing.

As for the source? You may be asked to find that, too. But watch out, because whatever, or whomever, is responsible might not want to be found.

FEED ME, SEYMOUR
Plants are now taking requests! Some of them may be benign or even silly: water lilies asking Chosen to take a swim with them, ferns asking to be watered, venus fly traps who need help catching flies. They may even ask for items, human food, or to be entertained. Weird.

Just don't give them any blood. Unless you'd like to get eaten, that is.

Character: Mitama Yakumo
Canon: Magia Record: Puella Magi Madoka Magica Side Story
Canon Point: Part 2, Chapter 10, Episode 1

Crime: Breaking the oath of neutrality

Background: As the Coordinator of Kamihama City's magical girls, Mitama serves as a helpful guide and reliable ally to all hard-working girls! ... Or so she'd say. Mitama is a cheerful, lively girl who marches to the beat of her own drum, and has a bit of a mischeavous streak to her, as she enjoys teasing people and getting them into all sorts of hilarious trouble. She's the kind to plan parties and games and then drag everyone else into her fun nonsense, whether they like it or not (especially if they don't). She's happy to lend people an ear when they need it, and provides her magical services to everyone who wants it... provided they can pay the price.

But beneath all that perky and sunny persona, Mitama is extremely jaded and resentful as the result of her past experiences, and finds it difficult to truly trust others, instead choosing to hide behind her merry-go-lucky facade. That's not to say none of her usual act is real, however ─ she really does care deeply about her friends and clients, and she means well. Usually.

Abilities: Mitama is a magical girl, which comes with... A Lot of things, so feel free to check out the detailed summary here, but here's the tl;dr:
- her strength, agility, stamina and durability are far beyond those of a normal human
- her personal magic gives her the ability to access a person's soul and break it from within with curses; however, she intentionally uses it in reverse, giving her the ability of magical adjustment ─ she can strengthen other people's powers, as well as unlock their latent talents and new abilities
- doing the above also causes her to see some of the memories of the person she's adjusting ─ OOCly, this will of course only happen if the player gives their permission, but ICly... let's just say you won't be learning about that anytime soon. ~~that's her blackmail material~~
- she needs a special item called Grief Seed to replenish her magical energy every so often; should she fail to do so, she will turn into a monster known as a Witch, which spreads disasters and curses among humans

- ... she's such a terrible cook it might as well be a special ability

Plans: Mitama is doing perfectly fine! No, really. She's learned to embrace her grief and despair a while ago, so the events from the maze don't bother her nearly as much as most (almost disturbingly so). Plans for this month include for her to regain and officially open her shop! She will be offering her abilities to strengthen other people's skills (within reason, ofc) in return for money and/or help with errands. More on that once I get things set up!

I'd love for her to find some friends and other positive influences who could maybe even see her mask slip a bit, and somewhere down the line make her realize how far she's gone; depending on how things go, I'm also considering going down a darker path where she ends up turning into a Witch. I'm open to negative CR, too, of course, though admittedly it's hard to get under Mitama's skin or even get her to take things seriously. Mitama is perfect for dragging people out of their shells if need be, too, since she loves sticking her nose in other people's business. I think there are lots of fun possibilities there!
