Event: A Bit of Home for the Holidays!
On Day 407 (Dec 19-25) characters will get a bit of home for the holidays from the wardens! Mind you, time and seasons are meaningless here so it's not ICly any sort of holiday.

ONE item from home (or a previous game if you're that kind of character) will just be somewhere your character will find it. Your pocket, table, foot of your bed, in a vending machine you use. Feel free to get creative with it.

It could be good, bad, or indifferent to the character. It can be something from any point on your character's timeline: (past, present, or future!) It can be a keepsake, picture, book, game, uniform, etc.! Yes, maybe even a weapon or pet!

Character Name: Neil Dylandy

Description of item/creature: The energy-drained/empty weapon that he was shooting at Ali Al-Saachez at his very end.

What makes it questionable/dangerous/beyond the usual scope of the game? It's a weapon.

Link(s) to image and/or more info if available: Image 1 and image 2. It's a weapon that was part of a Gundam mecha suit, but on its own it is entirely useless without being powered up by quantum particles. Other than a blunt weapon kind of thing.

Additional notes/concerns/questions: It's not meant to be a danger to the game, only as emotional thing to make about three of the characters kinda not very happy. >.>

Character Name: John Constantine

Description of item/creature: His trusted lighter<

What makes it questionable/dangerous/beyond the usual scope of the game? Normally it'd be no big deal, but the thing is littered with magical seals, iconography, ect. With the magical seals in place, he does often use it in spells. He used it in the Arrow episode as a way to find his, Oliver, and Laurel's way through the spiritual plane to get back Sara's soul. His magic is limited as it is, but best to check and make sure!

Link(s) to image and/or more info if available: [1] [2]

Additional notes/concerns/questions: Most of the magical items John collects are shoved into the Millhouse.. but given he can't bring a place with him, close enough?

	Approved! With the right journal! marinanova_mod 2016-12-13 04:17 am UTC (link)
	Approved! His magic is already limited and any seal that depends on anything that isn't naturally occurring within the dome already (like hell or 1000 souls or Burbank, CA—who knows) won't be accessible anyway. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Character Name: Jun Kanzaki

Description of item/creature: A black cat.

What makes it questionable/dangerous/beyond the usual scope of the game? It's not it's just a normal cat.

Additional notes/concerns/questions: So I wasn't sure if any kind of pet was supposed to be asked about or only if they're dangerous or magical or something in any way so I thought I'd ask. If a character wants something completely normal and non-dangerous, is it alright to proceed with letting them have that item without checking in here?

	Approved! We debated that, but ultimately just put all pets for simplicity's sake instead of trying to further define aspects that might come up. You can keep responses to the form brief for any additional, similar requests though. (Reply to this) (Parent)

Poster
All posters are fine as long as they are from your character's canon (or reasonable headcanon). They would only need to be checked here if magical. Which I say more just in case anyone else is reading this.

Surgical Kit
We think it's fair to assume they have tools like that, so you can go for the picture instead. (Though we would have approved his kit too if you wanted to do that anyway.)

Hidden Blade
Blade approved!

Peter
We aren't bothered by headcanon items. It doesn't have to be explicitly shown in canon as long as it's something reasonable. A picture of Aunt May and Uncle Ben. His favorite jacket. His high school research paper.

Character Name: Wendy Marvell

Description of item/creature: Air Shatter Cannon; it's a small, compact, light-blue cylinder. It contains wind magic.

What makes it questionable/dangerous/beyond the usual scope of the game? If someone unable to control the power of it uses it, it can be dangerous. Wendy knows how to use it these days though and won't let it lie around where people might misuse it.

Link(s) to image and/or more info if available: http://fairytail.wikia.com/wiki/Air_Shatter_Cannon

Additional notes/concerns/questions: She will be careful with it. It's not like she needs it but it's good to have in reserve.

She can get this weapon, but she'll find it isn't as powerful as it used to be. There will be no tornadoes—accidental or otherwise. In some cases she'll find it's ability to produce powerful winds is very brief and other times it will work for longer periods but the intensity is less. You're also welcome to pick something else if you're not interested in this choice under these conditions.

Character Name: Piper Halliwell

Description of item/creature: Book of Shadows (abridged version!)

What makes it questionable/dangerous/beyond the usual scope of the game? The Book of Shadows is the equivalent of a witch wikipedia. Usually, each family has one, passed down through the generations. It contains spells, potion recipes, and knowledge of various demons and otherworldly creatures. Piper's been going off memory, ingenuity, intuition, and what research she can find already in the Marina Nova library, all the while slowly creating her own book for in the dome, but having a condensed version of the one from home could give her an edge.

Link(s) to image and/or more info if available: Book of Shadows on the Charmed Wiki

Additional notes/concerns/questions: Obviously, without any other Halliwell family members in the dome, the Book would be weakened. The strength of its spells is built from the Power of Three, which Piper would need two other Halliwell witches to actually use. Therefore, any Power of Three spell can easily (and conveniently) be left out of the book. Also, any spells and/or potions that are highly destructive or that do any major vanquishing of evil creatures can also be left out. This would definitely be an abridged version for the sake of avoiding having it be a game breaker. Also, any creature knowledge would most definitely be Charmed-verse specific, making it only partially effective against equivalent creatures from other worlds.

Character Name: Tieria Erde

Description of item/creature: The small pistol he had tucked in his garter while undercover in season 2, episode 8

What makes it questionable/dangerous/beyond the usual scope of the game? It's a gun... and very portable.

Link(s) to image and/or more info if available: Unfortunately, it's not super clear, but it's the only time you see it in the series. It's smaller than the standard CB firearm, though, but bigger than an actual real life Derringer.

Additional notes/concerns/questions: Being that it's smaller than the normal CB firearm, I imagine it carries less shots. Most Derringer pistols that are used in the way this particular one was in the show only carry two at most. Judging by the slightly larger size of this one than a normal Derringer, it's possible that this could carry up to four. However, beyond that, it's still really only useful for short bouts of self-defense, and would be essentially useless in a long, drawn-out firefight. The idea of the gun is more to draw out awkward questions from a certain castmate who isn't aware that Tieria ever had a gun tucked into a garter belt under a formal dress at a dinner banquet... and to watch Tieria squirm while Lyle just laughs. ^^;;

	He can have the gun. Unfortunately, it will be unloaded when he finds it and the dome shops don't stock bullets. You can choose something else if that lessens the appeal though! (Bullets can be purchased with large amounts of rehab points from the wardens.) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nope! That's perfect! :D It has exactly the desired effect. (Reply to this) (Parent)
