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.

minato arisato | persona 3
Contact: Expi Discord or
Anything Else?: Nice to meet you!! I'm Jin and in an EST timezone. I'm full work from home, so I'm generally around... tho my typical work day lasts anywhere between 10 to 11 hours
12 hours if shit hit the fanso tags usually come in the evening. Day is spent reading/writing words (bad) so I look forward to reading/writing words (good)... My coworker-roommate sleeps on my couch all day, very envious of the life she leads (she is dog so it's allowed). I like Persona (mainly familiar with P3 however), Pokemon, Ace Attorney, Fire Emblem, and some other stuff!!Character: Minato Arisato
Canon: Persona 3
Canon Point: Post-canon/after final day of the game/iykyk
Crime: Negligence, but the terrible kind i.e. failure to do what even the average Joe would have done.
Background: Physical embodiment of "Nihilism: Nothing matters (existential dread) vs Nothing matters (fuck it we ball)." High school student who drifts through life and gets roped into others' shenanigans no matter how stupid they might be. His idgaf attitude and flagrant disregard for his own well-being can be alarming at times but!! He's genuinely quite nice so surely that counts for something... Minato def comes off as someone super unmotivated but little do you know he's juggling 500 different things because people asked him for help and... he can't think of any reasons to say no... It's less him being a people pleaser and more that he personally doesn't see any reason to say no. He's also a Wildcard Persona char which means he is walking around with several brain demons too.
Abilities: the Persona brain demons. He has 10 of them and they range from huge + somewhat concerning-looking to a tiny pixie. He's good with a sword too!
Plans:
Blackout: Minato will help out wherever he can! He has obtained a bunch of firewood from helping clear out someone's lawn in the February TDM. He doesn't have any survivalist skills but won't seem too fussed about the situation. It might not seem like it but any advice will be super appreciated by him, and he's pretty keen on returning favors. You scratch my back I'll scratch yours etc etc
Event: Nothing in particular..... I don't have any extensive ideas re: what his event-based self would be, but if you'd like him as part of your char's Aldrip-canon(?????) let me know!
Misc: If we tagged on the February TDM I'm happy to keep any CR that came out of it. We can definitely retcon things though if you'd like! I'm not 100% sure yet whether I'll have an open log this month, but I can absolutely drum up a reason for Minato to be anywhere.
Re: current plans, he'll be helping Sha-Ming
getting dragged into50 part-time jobs/activities...How can you run into my character? Literally anywhere!! Some easy spots would probably be the inn since he lives there, and maybe Astralin's farm?? He likes critters... Minato isn't really adventurous necessarily but he's around. 100% vibing.
