A NEW LIFE.

//SPREAD, CONTAMINATE, ERADICATE



SIGNS OF TROUBLE.

As you adjust to your new way of life, you start to notice that healing isn't quite as effective as it used to be. Broken bones and internal injuries no longer heal the way that they have been, and consumables are harder to come by. Hopefully you have a stockpile somewhere.

Either way, this is a sign that you need to be more careful from here on out. Who knows what could happen?
MEMORIES.
The things that have shaped you have always remained at the forefront of your mind and your heart. Yet, you feel that one of those memories is slipping away.

Characters will lose a single memory that is listed on their application. What piece of themselves will they lose?
WE ARE FUCKING UNDER ATTACK.
What were once guaranteed safe havens are now a memory of the past, as monsters have invaded the Root Towns and PvE/PvP have been enabled with their sudden appearance. Some hard work can take care of these monsters, but some of them boast impenetrable shields.

Hopefully a few of you know exactly what needs to be done to defeat them.
A VOICE.
A voice visits you while you try to sleep. Do you pay it no mind, or do you listen to it?

    Plans:
    - Oria has reached level 75! And Professions Level 4! And he will be absolutely pissed off that gathering materials have become absolutely scarce!! He'll be quick to notice, because he no-lifes professions shit. He's also hoarding. Also, since he's level 4 now, chefs can cook food up to 20 servings, so bring him your ingredients for better efficiency.
    - He's also customizing his weapons for pure status inflicting purposes. He's part debuffer now. He can be a real crowd control class now! lol
    - The memory that Oria will be forgetting is (pulled straight from his app): Oria standing in the hospital room of his dying boyfriend that he loved very much, pondering on whether he should pull the plug on his life support. There were malicious rumors afterward that many people believe Oria really did that, but he never did. He wished he did though. He didn't think his boyfriend deserved to suffer, but he was also the mayor's son. So. Fun!
    - Other than that, I'm playing it by ear, going with the flow, etc
    - Oria's top-level here!

    Seeking: More CR! Please. I've had an empty inbox for hours this week and I wanted to tag so bad. o)-(
    Offering: Some guy who likes to "fight smarter, not harder" and everything else that encompasses who Oria is. Need someone to comfort your character? He'll be there, unless he hates your character's guts.

    Anything else: Hien is also losing an important memory! Yes, I had to write an app for him like everyone else. But he's also gradually losing a lot more over time--his memories... maybe even his "shining" personality. That said, he'll most likely forget about you the less you interacted with him, so that's that. His toplevel is here.

    Class: shadow warlock (lvl 50)

    Plans:

    ↪fai will be losing a memory related to what sparked his passion for chemistry, and will therefore be a little bit off in the sense that he no longer feels like he has a purpose
    ↪he'll happily work with people to kill monsters! he's level 50, so he can at least help with a sizable portion of them
    ↪fai will also be spending less time in root towns to get away from the chaos, so i'm open to dungeon runs or meeting up in rec areas to hang out
    ↪emotionally, fai will be in a pretty weird place. people he cares about are suddenly different in a way he can't put his finger on, and it'll bother him a lot more than he'd like to let on
    ↪i have no real plans other than that, so i'm pretty flexible

    Seeking: deeper cr! that's my main goal! gimme that deeper cr
    Offering: fai is someone who will listen to and support those he likes, so anyone that needs support right now can count on him to provide it! whether that's through advice or baked goods, he'll be there.

    Anything else: i'll be posting a toplevel this time around! that said, i'm happy to post custom starters too. oh also, fai has long hair now! he missed his long hair in real life too much to not have it while he's stuck here

    Avatar Name: fandaniel
    Class: Shadow Warlock

    Plans: ahahaha... ha... oh boy. let's see.
    - Fandaniel is losing his memory of the violent car accident that killed his parents and little sister. It will change him drastically and not for the better; while he won't struggle as much with his crippling survivor's guilt, he will also have no explanation for why his family disappeared from his life. Instead of missing them, he will despise their memory, assuming he must have been abandoned instead.

    - Those occasional moments of kindness people have experienced in the past will be snuffed out by this change. Enjoy! (:

    - Fandaniel had been stockpiling materials in case things continued to become worse in the game. He has plenty of extra crafting materials in Telophoroi's storage but he has limited access to guild leader and officers only which means... just him and Cultist Grunty. He is not inclined to share but can be convinced otherwise if anyone really wants some additional materials.

    - Either that or try your luck with Cultist Grunty! Who remains far nicer than Fandaniel, thankfully. CG will fret over going against orders, though.

    - He will be watching other people struggle with monsters from root town rooftops and having a grand time not helping. Of course, when something attacks him, he will defend himself, so the trick here is to make sure whatever is threatening you also threatens him lololol.


    Seeking: People for Fandaniel to be awful towards, especially his close CR~, but he'll be even meaner to people he has less CR with, so come one, come all, to the "fandan is a real piece of shit" arc.

    Offering: See above.

    Plans:

    - Obviously Dehya will be involved in the efforts to fight back the monsters. Notably Dehya recognizes the glitch shields and will warn other people that standard means can't get through them. Pending some IC confirmation, however: she may actually have the tool to take the shield down which means she'll focus on those guys in particular.

    - She will be using her level 50 special armor for its power boost and uh, dealing with its evil consequences. If she's particularly snappish and lone wolfing it under this, well.

    - I am thinking her memory she's going to lose is of her dad telling her bedtimes stories about knights and heroes. It won't immediately unsettle her but she may slowly realize she has no idea where her sense of morals came from or why she has this sense that her dad betrayed them.

    Seeking: More CR! Deeper CR! All the good usual stuff.
    Offering: Strong lady who is out to protect the other people in this game and support the efforts of unraveling the mystery and like, hopefully getting out of the game.

    memloss: the artist formerly known as hani will be losing their name - or rather the memory of them receiving that name, so they will be VERY confused by people calling them hani, might not even remember to react to it even if people tell them. they started off dot hack still looking for a name and had been making progress with accepting hani as their name (it was starting to feel right!!!), but oops that's all gone now!
    a voice will be talked to
    combat: level 75 wavemaster with all of ONE healing spell!! let them know if u need. they are still going to be absolutely reckless about things
    MP/HP: they have stockpiled Delightful Dream Tea x99 and Rejuvenating Sunflower Frappe x99. at profession lvl 3, these drinks can serve up to eight players! they will gladly share with anyone looking
    crafting/gathering: should be reaching lvl 4 this week! oops I missed a week of dungeons at the beginning
    guild: feel free to use their new guild WINKs for communal item sharing. this is all handwaved, but if you would like to thread things out lmk

    Class: Adept Rogue (Blade Brandier, Wavemaster, Macabre Dancer), level 50

    Plans: Levi was already having a poor time coping with living in-game 24/7, and it's just getting worse. Funny how he daydreamed about how cool it would be to live here back when this all began, huh? He spends the majority of his time either cooped up in the Fandom Foodies @ home common area or in his private room. Sometimes he makes himself really hard to find in general. As such, he's fallen behind on gathering and leveling his professions and was slow to reach level 50.

    - For this patch, he's going to forget about his oldest brother winning custody of all the Blake kids over their father, which...is just going to put even more of a damper on his mood. While it'll be more of the same to most people, the ripple effects will be more noticeable to closer CR.

    - He got special level 50 armor! ...It's gonna hurt him a lot!! Wearing this armor is going to make progressing his level even harder and he's going to need some help coping with it if he wants to try getting beyond level 50. He'd just avoid wearing it at all if he didn't need the best armor possible to deal with the ever-present increase in danger...

    - If he manages to get out of his rut, he's going to get his ass in gear to defend the root towns and use his stores to craft useful items for everyone. Right now, though, he's just kind of uselessly sitting on it all. Levi voice: ha. classic, useless me.

    Seeking: People to help Levi get himself together, whether it's via comfort or bullying. He just needs a push right now and the source isn't as important! Always up for general CR-deepening and building as well!
    Offering: Cringy otaku who is really depressed and anxious, currently trying very hard to lean into his shut-in lifestyle despite being in a video game. It's fine. But if dragged out of his hole, he's a formidable ally and has a decent stock of supplies for battle.

    Anything else: Thank you all for bearing with my slowness as of late! I'd gotten a bit bogged down and then covid body-slammed me on top of that, so I think what's best for me to do is to wipe my slate clean and start fresh so I can get back in the groove. I'll continue to tag the stuff from last patch that I just tagged into recently, but I'm gonna drop everything else. If there's something of ours that you'd like to continue though, by all means hit me up! Maybe we can boomerang it out to get it finished up.
