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.
PLOT WITH ME
Player:Contact:
Anything Else?: Anything you might want us to know? What kinds of things interest you? What's your current favourite fandom? Put it here.
Character:
Canon:
Canon Point:
Crime: The crime your character was accused of when they arrived.
Background: A brief insight into your character's history is fine here. You can talk about their personality as well.
Abilities: Any abilities that you feel is important to note about your character. Bullet points and concise descriptions are okay.
Plans: What kinds of things do you want to do in the game? Any kind of CR you want to specifically pursue? Any special character discovery or exploration you want to do? This is the place to put all of that.
How can you run into my character? What's their daily life like? Do they have a job? Do they have other habits or routines?
???: Questions? Comments? Memes? Put them here.
Yuja Wightshade | FFXIV
Contact:
Anything Else?: I like art, Vtubers, FFXIV and other games. Kind of obsessed with The Apothecary Dairies RN.
Character: Yuja Wightshade
Canon: Final Fantasy XIV
Canon Point: End of 6.4
Crime: Mass murder
Background: Yuja was born in the Steppe, left home at 10, drifted around, and did her best to survive, before eventually stumbling into being the Warrior of Light. She's generally a little standoffish but friendly and willing to lend a helping hand with most matters.
Full details here.
Abilities: The Echo is really the only ability that is necessary to mention here as it allows Yuja to experience the memories of others as if she is experiencing them herself. Granted, this is an opt-in/plan-to-have-it-happen kind of deal.
If you wish to opt-in to Echo shenanigans or simply opt-out of interacting with Yuja, you can do so here.
Plans: Honestly, I'm kind of stuck for ideas. Beyond Yuja having no memories of her childhood (like AU memories) and being adopted and raised by someone in Aldrip I'm not sure what to do with her. Adventure is a part of her being, it is quite literally intrinsic to her soul.
I guess she could just be a flighty bum about keeping a single job and just does whatever little thing ppl need done, like she does now.
But anyway, I guess if anyone wants an adopted lizard daughter I'd be down for that.
How can you run into my character? Yuja's typical day is just being out and about doing whatever catches her fancy. Sometimes it's hunting or fishing (especially now that the weather is warmer), sometimes it's just riding her chocobo around, and sometimes she's helping people do little jobs or chores. Basically, you can find her anywhere.
