September CR Meme & Outline
Welcome to the September outline! While outlines aren't exactly the newest thing we've done here, this one is particularly special because it's the first time we're combining the outline with the CR meme. We're hoping this will help alleviate problems with plotting and facilitating CR in the past, as now players know exactly what they're plotting for.
Outlines give players a general idea of what will be coming up in the month, and you're free to interpret it however you like. If you have any questions or would like to start threads early, please feel free to! There shouldn't be any gamewide plot that would restrict players from pursuing their own personal plots; if there were, we will mark it! The upcoming event/intro log will go into detail and have specific prompts and scenarios you may play out, but in general, we would like players to have freedom to play whatever they like. Please look forward to that! Quests will be released on September 20th and will be the primary method to receive REP from any of the three major cities. As a final note, CR Memes are open to all players! SEPTEMBER OUTLINE ![]() Week One — The red dwarf sun continues to rise and set as though the calamity had never happened, and the moons Thesa and Alria continue to shine brightly in the nights as though the Natha are still watching. To those that came from Thesa, this event had taken place two lengthy months ago; to the average native, whose time had stood still, it's a catastrophe that is still fresh on their minds. And even still, life goes on. Olympia goes about their days humbled by Darma's frozen gaze, whereas Wyver is shamed by Ysverai's frozen wrath. It's no surprise that up in Thesa, the newly awakened are preparing to descend to this new El Nysa as well. The Natha Orbiters are no longer watching, but it doesn't mean that you're out of allies. Nurray of Nadril has offered to utilize Natha technology to set a beacon in her colony. As the colony provides high-speed transportation to both Olympia and Wyver, you might find that it is an ideal location to start off with before venturing out into the once-warring cities. You'll be offered an opportunity to declare one of these cities, Olympia or Wyver, your home. Week Two — Event. An eerily still night settles over Nysa on the 8th. All over the isles, an otherworldly hum lilts from up above. Some may hear it in the sky, in the leaves of trees, or between stone edifices, filling the air around them. Most speculate it’s emanating from the still rotten battlegrounds, or the imposing statue of Ysverai. Travel to these locations, and the tone may resonate louder, but it will remain impossible to pinpoint. The sound waxes and wanes until sunlight crests on the horizon, severe orange light bringing an end to the disquieting night. With the sunlight come the spirits of the dead, their souls restless in the wake of Ysverai’s destruction. They wander the battle fields and city streets alike, appearing anywhere the great dragon’s wail reached. The search for resolution is shared by all of the roaming spectres. Some yearn to see a lover once more, some toil to recover a lost family artifact. Others simply want their remains given a proper grave, or cry for vengeance. Satisfying each ghost’s desire will put that soul to rest, though there are some who cannot be pacified in such a way. Exorcisms fill in where other techniques fall short, banishing spirits steeped in malaise or incapable of finding their own way. Of course, passages into other realms of existence are two way roads, and the myth of summoning creatures from the other side can be quite the temptation. Week Three — Quests. The spirits of the dead might be out and about, but life still goes on, regardless. As the dead in Olympia and Wyver continue to be laid to rest, communications from the north reveal that Magda has gone missing from Nadril. With the disappearance comes a reintroduction - Cree has returned to the Gilded Cage, resuming his position as a leader of the underground. Hard times for the layman are a criminal's most bountiful opportunity, and, as always, Cree is willing to share in his profits. When it comes down to it, there are always things that need doing, and who better than the refugees to handle it? After all, they’re blessed by Thesa. Surely they can help make things easier in these trying times. The quest board will go live later this month. It will include opportunities for characters to earn REP from Olympia, Wyver, and Nadril, as well as the opportunity to earn money and other artifacts from the Gilded Cage. Week Four — Ysverai’s scourge is a tragedy that will go remembered for centuries, tales of the calamity already woven by song and ink alike. The great nations of Nysa, while looking to the future and working to restore their former glory, recognize the need to maintain their pasts - not as Olympians or Wyvers, but as Nysans. A great memorial has been proposed between Simwe and Shanrian, both leaders looking to their own people for contributions. Supplies, manpower, and creative direction are all sought after, an effort to create a monument that resonates with everyone who gazes upon it. The endeavor commemorates not only mutual loss, but a shared devotion to a future in which such catastrophe will never come to the people of Nysa again. The leaders will also be seeking suggestions as to where to put it. With this memorial, the remaining souls that have been haunting all of El Nysa will be finally put to rest. CR/INTRO MEME ▶ Handle.

kou | mikazuki augus | gundam ibo
▶ Preferred Contact.
▶ Friending Policy. add away! plurk is my preferred method of contact because it's easy for me to check/respond on mobile.
▶ Interests. work, rp, memes, a cat, a bunny, fandoms (gundam, macross, love live!!, bandori, hypmic, etc.) makeup...
▶ Tagging Habits. pst now, going to mst in nov. i'm a med-slow tagger! work's a killer y'all
▶ Character Name & Series. mikazuki augus | gundam ibo
▶ Character Age. 18
▶ Photo Reference. i'm lazy so you get the first busted piece of fanart i found in my imgur (injuries ahoy)
▶ Permissions. boop
▶ Personality Blurb. a mellow child soldier with teen nihilism. a martian who has experienced a lot of xenophobia and classism in his life, he tends to think alliances are fake and places his worth as a person on how useful he is, particularly if it has to do with piloting a giant robot. his answer to problems is typically violence, and he's headstrong but lacks leadership skills. casually affectionate and easy to win over with like, snacks and acceptance, he tends to be pretty level-headed (almost deadpan) unless someone trips his killswitch. he's intensely loyal and falls into codependency easily because he dislikes being lonely. not all that emotionally sound, but he's trying his best. likes food, fighting, and farming. his motifs are wolves and the crescent moon.
▶ Desired CR. positive, negative, anything! he does well with people who stand opposite him, so your morally stainless lawful goods to butt heads with, princes/princesses, nerds/techies/intellectuals to be the brains to his brawn, hotheads, etc. more teens! please be normal at him, he needs some of that in his life. but also adults who trend towards decent leadership and influence. green thumbs because he loves plants. also magic users, because he has fire magic but no idea how to use it well (send help asap)
▶ Offered CR. he's a good straight man for goofy shenanigans, and will pretty much always say yes to getting involved in dumb things. he can spar with the best of them. if you wanna go somewhere in style, his other ride is a gundam. he's a good sparring and drinking partner because his endurance and metabolism are nuts. wonderful guard dog. he can make your squishies swole. he's also from the future and used to life in space, so he can be a pretty good anchor for those who aren't.
▶ Rooming Plans. he has maxed wyver and natha rep and a farm outside wyver proper! he can be pretty testy about new people finding his home, but chills out pretty fast about it since it's not exactly difficult to stumble upon.
▶ Game Plans. someone please stop him from climbing into his gundam and going and kicking ysverai's stupid head off (he's pretty sure olympia can't arrest him for vandalism if he's 60ft tall and bulletproof, but maybe that's just his teen spirit speaking)
▶ Event Plans. WHO WANTS TO BURY SOME BODIES AND SCOOBY AROUND WITH SOME GHOSTS. i mean help some souls. he's never seen a ghost in his life, so this'll be a time. he's also definitely going to take up quests from the gilded cage, so i'd love to plan for those!
also potentially thinking of an autumnish farm log... harvest! warm booze! blowing stuff up with fire! roasting veggies! local dragon pals! ghost stories! (and then an actual ghost pulls up.)
▶ Anything Else?
