PLOT WITH ME/INTRO MEME MARCH 2024
INTRO MEME
Welcome to Expiation and come on down! We're thrilled to have you here! This intro entry serves additionally as a CR meme, so you are free to use it to say hello, tell us a bit about yourself, talk about your character, and potential plans for the game.
The SOTG for March is HERE, with changes and where the game is going for the month. Feel free to browse around if you haven't already, and check out the MAIN NAVIGATION for more detailed info about the game itself.
MARCH EVENT
MARCH EVENT SUMMARY
IT’S A BEAUTIFUL DAY
Characters wake up on the morning of March 11 to note a few things with relative immediacy. First, the weather is beautiful: warm, breezy, sunny. Second, all of the locals in Aldrip and the surrounds seem to have vanished. Third, these things seem totally normal to the Chosen–who now all believe that they are native to Aldrip.
That’s right. You’ve lived here your whole life. Everything you’ve ever known is this world.
Characters will go about their daily business in lives that they believe have always been like this. You’re free to choose any jobs, roles, backgrounds, and connections with other Chosen for your characters, so long as they believe that they have always lived in Expiation. All character powers are gone, or dormant, for most of the event. More on that later.
LOST AND FOUND
Occasionally, while going about their daily activities, characters will come across an item that seems strangely incongruous with the world they know. This will begin happening after the first few days of the event. A symbol particularly relevant to your character’s canon, for example, or a book. Watches, jewelry, cards, photos, small trinkets and tableaus–all of these are fair game.
Everything in your character will tell them not to look at these objects. Their entire being will try to resist them. If they do, the item disappears when they leave its immediate area. What item? They forget about the entire encounter. Strange.
Touching or interacting with these objects or moments will force a strange memory into their head–a memory of a past life, or a dream, maybe. These are your characters’ real memories, and as the event goes on, they will be able to either collect or ignore more of them. You’re free to engage with as many or as few of these as you like. We’ll ask on the event poll how many you interact with, and how many you ignore. The final count may have lasting repercussions on your characters and/or the world of Expiation, so please pay attention to the poll! Not all of these instances need to be threaded out.
There will be an RNG ELEMENT in this event, as well. Please note that characters who are picked for RNG have a small but nonzero chance that RNG effects could have a long-lasting impact on them.

Scott Summers | XMCU
Contact:
Anything Else?: currently stuck in persona 3 hell, and after that, final fantasy vii hell.
Character: Scott Summers
Canon: XMCU (X-Men Movies)
Canon Point: Driving back from the mall
Crime: Kills Charles Xavier
Background: Somewhat grumpy teenager that's an outcast becomes an even grumpier teen and a bigger outcast when he suddenly developed mutant powers. Although, somehow, he ends up making a lot more friends because of his powers, probably because he's going to a school where he's not the biggest weirdo anymore. In Expiation, he's a lot friendlier in general, in due to having a lot of friends and stuff, but he can sometimes have an attitude still. Some angst too regarding his powers, but he's trying to get over it.
Not yet a child soldier, haven't gotten to that canon point. ONE DAY THOUGH.
Abilities: Uncontrollable optic blasts from his eyes, unfortunately not lasers. u_u still, pew pew. He keeps them semi-controlled with his sunglasses, unfortunately doesn't have the mega cool visor that's definitely 100% cool.
Plans: Be friends with Scott!! Or bully him, that's cool. Let him be grumpy at adults and slowly warm up to them, because he's hella salty that all of his favorite adults are gone. Talk about weird powers or whatever, he's here for it, especially if you can't control it. For the memory loss event, he's going to be some orphan kid that is the apprentice of the sandwich shop because that's X-Men enough, except without all the child soldering! If you want to plot some AU backstory together, I'm cool with it! He's probably just going to have that boy next door energy, especially with the power loss.
Oh yeah join his club, TWAT Club (Teenagers with Abilities and Teens).
How can you run into my character? Everywhere in Aldrip. Sandwich shop, his home, the inn, club buliding, Astralin's farm, if you need a reason to bump into Scott, it won't be hard to think of one. He prob doesn't venture outside too much, unless it's to practice firing his optic blasts or something.
???: i'm sorry i'm lazy this time

She has found out that the correct dialog choice is they are "friends" because Apparently "confidants" is too much of a giveaway for "fuck buddies".
