You are AVISPA KUSBIR and you are standing on LOMAW, looking up at the SECOND GATE. You’ve jumped through almost all the other gates, and you know that next is Hirune’s planet! You’re almost there, with Kaprao, Lyn, Phylus, Pherae, Durian, Perrix, Zirreh, and Kalfour! So you send a message to Hirune, secretly, because you have husktop glasses. She’ll be prepared because you’re helping, absolutely!

AA: Oh, you're almost here?
AA: That's, ah, good, very good to hear.
AA: Yes, everything is going well, isn't it.
AA: —ah, and I almost forgot, here's a map of where all the traps are. They're, well, fairly deadly, so... do try to avoid them.

AC: Oh, um, w4it, tr4ps?
AC: But oh, 4 m4p!

You now attempt to be NIKKAL CERROS.

Unfortunately, your attempt fails, because NIKKAL CERROS is somewhat... indisposed at the moment. Instead, you are now one of her PINK AXOLOTL CONSORTS.

You are one of a small group of consorts who have gathered in Nikkal's HIVE, and you are all terrified out of your wits. You frantically crowd around one of Nikkal's spare CAKETOPS and paw at it until it turns on. Unfortunately, operating a HUSKTOP is rather difficult for the lot of you, seeing as none of you have arms with which to TYPE with.

However, one of you has become most adept at using your FEET to operate these strange troll devices. Through some miracle, that consort manages to log onto TROLLIAN, and you put on your SERIOUS FACE. There is a message to everyone else that must be dictated.

-- barefootGibbous opened memo HELP SOMEONE ANYONE BUU!!! --


BG: sos!! sos, buu!!!!
BG: the witch has fled the premises!!
BG: she has left our company in a furious rage, buu!!!!
BG: ummm you dont have to type out the buus
BG: whatever this is too important!!
BG: please someone must come and try to help the witch!!!
BG: we believe this to be the work of those stuuuuuuuuuuuupid quartz imps!!!!!!!!!
BG: it stole her glasses and ran away and she got really mad, buu!!
BG: we dont know where she is now so please can someone come and help us!!
BG: she might destroy everything!!!!!!!!


And in the background, Nikkal's LUSUSPRITE frantically hovers around in a complete and utter PANIC.

(( So, for the record, this post covers multiple things across multiple events, because I figured it wouldn't really hurt to just mega-post and cover everything I missed. ))

You attempt to be DONOVAN ARCANS multiple times, and are far more successful than one would expect.

-Planet Glitches 1- ==> Donovan: Be Shocked. )

-Planet Glitches 2- ==> Donovan: Get Creative. )

-Adventuring Parties- ==> Donovan: Step Up. )

-Ominous Hearsay- ==> Donovan: Worry. )

(( The memos are all kids-only because Donny doesn't want to interact with the trolls. However, since he has to be online to do those memos, he's still able to be pestered one-on-one by anyone and everyone at any of the above instances. ))

You attempt to be LYNDIS NIVALI. You fail.

You attempt to be PERRIX SEIYOS. You fail.

You attempt to be ZURAHE CADENS. You fail; and she’s not even in this session!

You attempt to be STRETCH ARMSTRONG.

.... .... .... .... What? You also fail, but what are you trying to do?

You begin being AVISPA KUSBIR simply because it would be PUZZLING for you to be anyone else at the moment. Everyone else is busy being themselves, so you can’t be them! You have successfully gathered with Kalfour Samedi, Perrix Seiyos, Pherae Elapha, Phylus Inatta, and even Durian Agripa! You are all prepared to depart from LOTAC and make your way to LOMAW!

Which you do, quite quickly, realizing that Lyndis Nivali, Zirreh Reevas, and Kaprao Ocimum are all waiting on that very planet. You’re quite certain of their location courtesy of a kind and benevolent pumpk-

What pumpkin?

The only thing that matters is upon your arrival to LOMAW you are quick to inform your party that you are NOT to leave this village! You have arrived in a village, and Kaprao was very specific in telling you not to search through the jungle.

So you stay right here. You also tell Kaprao exactly where you are.


MINUTES IN THE FUTURE, but not many:

The party has gathered! You, as well as Phylus, Perrix, Pherae, Kalfour, and Durian, successfully meet with Lyndis, Kaprao, and Zirreh! Save for a single troll and those you’ve failed to save, all of Alpha is gathered so far!

You decide, before you mingle with everyone, that you’re going to pester Hirune. You hope she’s not lonely, but you’re going to see her soon... with everyone!:



1-1 Hirune Pester! )

You are now LYNDIS NIVALI, and it is time for you to ascend through your second gate.

You are more than a little nervous about this, as this involves - as you understand - leaving your planet, which means leaving your home cave very far behind you with only theoretical ways of getting back to it again. Still, you are aware that you can't simply refuse to progress in the game(or, rather, that the game would likely kill you off if you tried), so you have given in and begun carefully ascending the tower built atop the cliff that leads to your second gate. The static in the air means you can't actually see the gate yet, but the tower presumably leads to it and you expect to make it there eventually if you simply keep following it up.

And finally, once you're close enough, you do reach the gate. From there...it's simply a somewhat reluctant jump through to the next planet - following a considerably less reluctant Zirreh, which doesn't surprise you given his acknowledged flushed feelings for Kaprao, who will be waiting for you somewhere on the other side.

You find yourself in, rather unexpectedly, a village. (You likely should have asked Kaprao what awaited you on the other side of the portal - or maybe told him you two were on your way at all - but once you'd finally steeled yourself to go through you'd gotten kind of impulsive.) You're both immediately swarmed by weird-looking consorts, several promptly inviting the two of you to go for a swim in a nearby river.


Even if I knew how to swim, why would I wanna do that?

Their disappointment is visible, but they then simply turn their attention to Zirreh. This gives you time to get on Trollian.

-- artfulTransgressor [AT] began trolling passiveSampler [PS]. --

so uh kappy
were on your planet now i guess
but i haVe no idea where we are
or where you are
seems like weVe landed in a Village of your consorts i guess?
you wanna meet up or did we show up at a bad time
 
 
You are now KAPRAO OCIMUM, and you have made an unpleasant discovery. But what else is new, at this point?

You figured something was up the moment you felt something die. It is not a feeling you are unused to, because plants withered, get crushed and killed everyday, bits of life snuffed out suddenly and unceremoniously, like candle flame. That is how you would describe it, if anyone ever asked you what it felt like -- not that it was in any way accurate, but comparing it to something like that was...easier to grasp. You don't think you'd ever be able to describe the experience accurately.

But this time, something felt different. There was a pang in your thinkpan, a sense of loss and...weight, you suppose. This is not a candle light snuffed out by the wind, to continue the metaphor, this was more like a cauldron of flame suddenly extinguished. When you return to your consorts' village to check on the flowers, well...

You keep it short. What else can be said?

Geez, you're trying, ok!

You've made so many preparations it's not even funny. )

Your name is PHERAE ELAPHA, and never in all your sweeps have you been SO OVERWHELMED.

And, frankly, you're not so sure about the "emerging," either. The narrow windows at the top of this tower are just the right dimensions for you to fire your bow through, and it makes you feel much better to be able to do exactly that, despite the current TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES rendering your efforts at self-defense a bit pointless.

Who was it that Kaprao said had made this game? In hindsight, maybe you really should have asked him.

You are now ZIRREH REEVAS, just what the hell have you been up to recently? Your trollian notifs go off rather frequently, but you can't be bothered with that. Sometimes you just forget you're even signed in, you're so busy taking down these imps and exploring your land with your lusus. But recently your land has gotten more dangerous than it'd been before, and you think it's about time you put your plan into action.

What plan is that? The one where you stop fucking around with your alchemiter and get shit done. As fond as you are of LOEAC, you've found out all you could here and it's time to move on. You've honestly been planning this for a while now, even before your imprompt relationship issues or mild fascination with human animated movies. Those things were just a minor bump in the road. You change into something light knowing the places you're headed are much warmer than here and switch on your nifty huskphones so you can listen to some music while you check your messages.

since I can't believe that most of you
still don't even know who your teammates are
(except for maybe the humans but come on that's easy)
I think it's pretty safe to assume most of you also haven't been doing much to figure out how this game works
and why some of you suck so bad at it
although really
there's no helping it in some cases
fair warning, this is long as shit because I've ~actually~ been looking shit up about this game
so buckle in kiddos
time to kick this steam-powered information locomotive into proverbial gear

You are now KAPRAO OCIMUM, and you have been pretty quiet lately! You believe in being quiet, for most of the part. You don't think you've done anything that's really worth announcing to anyone -- you've found your second gate, and you've already worked out a way to reach it that you hope works. But you're not going yet, because you still have things to do and you are waiting for a visitor.

So instead you are here to talk about FLOWERS.

...Well, sort of. You know no one here is actually interested in flowers, but you are here to talk about it because the game seems to have seen fit to provide game things in the form of flowers.

You've taken a picture of them with your husktop, so when you open the memo you attach the file to it. You don't expect anyone to actually know what specific flowers they are, but their colours should be VERY FAMILIAR. Especially to your own sessionmates, considering they're theirs.


Kaprao: Open memo )

After a very good point was brought up, you decide to add to your memo, because this is also important shit.

a|so
i don't think most of us know how many aspects and ro|es there are in this game?
and what they are specifica||y
so i'd appreciate it if you can share what you do know about a|| that
 
 
Pester the yellowblood, yes! )


You also pause for a moment, looking over at Phylus, before you decide to pester Perrix, too. Priorities, priorities. You remember from a memo and work out the information to pester him with.

Your name is LYNDIS NIVALI, and you are FINALLY DOING USEFUL THINGS. )

-- artfulTransgressor [AT] RIGHT NOW opened memo on board so done with playing blind. --

AT: alright so
AT: dunno how many of you actually open your sponge clots when cs is talking
AT: i wouldnt really blame you if you just sort of let that shit wash oVer you without bothering to process any of it
AT: but belieVe it or not he actually had something important to say about sequences a memo or two back
AT: specifically that all our planets may be connected through our gates
AT: probably just through our own indiVidual sessions but honestly who the fuck knows at this point
AT: but he also said that despite working out there is a sequence
AT: he has no fucking idea what the sequence is
AT: or eVen who is in what session
AT: and you know who else doesnt know
AT: me
AT: i kinda wonder if ANYBODY fucking knows
AT: this memo is to remedy that shit right now
AT: so
AT: lets get this shit sorted out
AT: i want you
AT: no matter who the fuck you are eVen if weVe neVer talked
AT: or eVen if you cannot fucking stand me
AT: put your hands down kids
AT: to sound off here
AT: i want you to giVe your name
AT: along with who your serVer and client players are
AT: i dont care if your serVer and client haVe already spoken up by the way
AT: you damn well sound off anyway
AT: this is as much to get people straight as sequences
AT: and it gets eVeryone checking in
AT: if we get eVeryone to do this then we should be able to figure out the sequences
AT: along with how many sessions weVe got here
AT: and once weVe got the sequences and sessions straight maybe we can come up with some kinda plan
AT: ill eVen set up a format
AT: its gonna be serVer - you - client
AT: so in my case kaprao - lyn - zirreh
AT: as far as i know the three of us are all part of the original session phaest started
AT: were gonna call that the alpha session for claritys sake
AT: i know theres another troll session that sorta squeezed in
AT: well call that beta
AT: and so on down the line if theres more i honestly dont know at this point
AT: theres a human session as well i know that much
AT: theyre just gonna be the human session
AT: if theres more than one of their sessions too i guess well figure out names
AT: but does eVeryone get the idea of what were trying to figure out here
AT: good
AT: now sound off

You are once again LILY WHITE.

After finding out about the odd little things happening on your planet, you decide it's high time to get cracking on fixing the CHEMICAL MISHAPS in the canyons so you can actually go down and EXPLORE them. You have a nagging feeling there's entrances to DUNGEONS there, and nothing is going to stop you from LOOKING INTO THEM.

First, though, you figure you better open up yet ANOTHER memo, at least to warn the others that shit's going down.

((OOC note: Despite her responses to the memo being 15 minutes in everyone's future (for reasons she does know how she did), it still will take her 10-15 IC minutes for her to actually respond from their perspective. Factor that into their reactions of her being alive as you will. :3

Also, since it takes her a bit to respond, feel free to hit each other up on the memo and discuss her fate until she responds!))

You are once again RIA POLOLANIK and you're currently pretty upset. This is because upon waking up from PROSPITIAN SHENANIGANS the Land of Rifts and Echoes has once again changed, and the cave you napped in is now completely void of beautiful sparkling and horrifyingly pointy gems.

Ria: panic.

You are now on DERSE.

If you've awakened in this kingdom, your DREAM SELF is free to leave their TOWER and explore the city below. There may be a few things out of the ordinary, however; some of the resident DERSITES appear to be on edge...

If you look closely, you will find a series of golden posters plastered up on the walls of the kingdom: these posters are headlined with LIES AND SLANDER, though that might only be the case if you actually like the people pictured on them. You might see one of your TEAMMATES or even just a FRIEND, beneath the headline...

HEROES FAIL TO AWAKEN! ROGUE AND THIEF CONTINUE TO BE AT LARGE!
THE FALL OF PROSPIT'S HEROES REVERSED! A NEW ARMY HAS RISEN FROM THE ASHES!
THE PRINCE IS DEAD? THE PRINCE IS ALIVE? HAS TIME GONE CRAZY?

The headlines are uncountable - you're willing to bet that there is one for every player in your session. You wouldn't be surprised if there were one about you on your opposing moon!

Perhaps you'd better locate one of your teammates, or ask the DERSITES what's happening. This has to be a setup by the BLACK QUEEN.
