A wild post appears! Because organization is key when it comes to gaming, and we need a place to spam properly set this up, and so here it is: Mytho Redux )

With the death of Khaos and our godlings' lives changed one last time, Mythopoeics is over. We managed just near two years and whether you have been here for the whole run or just a couple of months you have helped make this game get that far.

As we noted before, this place will remain open for freeplay. This means plots amongst yourselves and development you'd like to go for will be allowed. We ask that for freeplay you please use the !aftermath tag. We know that there are many desired or wanted characters still for your characters but, for now, we are not going to allow in new characters. Old players are free to come back with their characters as long as they give us a nudge over at the modbox. We will say something if and when we feel people can app in casually played myth characters.

We do have a strange perk for you: the characters who fell during these last couple of months can still be played! However, they can only be played as ghosts. They will also need the !ghost tag to avoid confusion. They are able to post as a minor ability in death but that's about it. And, yes, they can be exorcised or move on if you like. But once that happens, that is it. If you character also dies during freeplay, the !ghost tag will be an option to them.

Finally, we thank you all for playing here and hanging in until the end. We've gone through a number of mods, changes, have hit road bumps and more but managed to get this far. We are sorry that we couldn't push the game further but this game always had an end game planned and now was the right time for it. Feel free to talk about what happens to your characters now in the ooc if you like.

Take care everyone and if you have questions, comments or anything else, feel free to place them here.

final event


[info]mythomod
[info]mythopooc
EVENT~



This is the end.

Time: From November 14th (11:59 PM EST) to November 20th (11:59 PM EST)

Location: Everywhere.

EVENT DESCRIPTION: The end has ICly been started. Characters who just want Khaos to die have all the information they need now. They know where the chalices are, they know which cities to go to and which ancient locations to seek out. Split your characters here OOCly for an even enough balance and then figure it out ICly. We suggest a couple of people take charge in organizing ICly but this is not required. The exact location of the each chalice will likely be inside of a temple or the like.

This won't be without issue. Khaos has her minions and they have reasons to interfere. They will try to dwindle down the number of each team, hoping to prevent enough to make the goal unreachable. At least five characters MUST be at the chalice and remain near it for at least a full day while protecting it. Their proximity will mean there will be a flow of their power going into the chalice. At least five characters MUST accomplish this per chalice.

For organization: )

We know the event is shockingly short but we didn't see much sense in pushing out a whole week of it. Due to valid concerns, we're making it longer and hope everyone finds the new dates satisfactory! When the 20th passes and they are successful, then the chalices will explode. An end post, among others, will address everything after that. Note that this is also the time to end any character lives you wish to. These deaths are real so be prepared for that.

Questions, comments, thoughts are all welcome below. ♥

This is as mandatory as the HMD (which means it's not). This is just to discuss and flesh out your characters or any plot plans you have. Maybe to get some help with those difficult characters that need to get involved more.

Here are some things to keep in mind: )

Have fun! ♥

And with the end of our second to last event, characters will be allowed to experience a normal New York again. Plant life will recede rapidly and the prehistoric creatures will take their leave within minutes. By four AM, all will be quiet, the city empty and normal except only they will be there. But by six AM, things will be busy and back to normal.

Those who need medical help should seek it when they can. As is the trend now, if your character died during the event, they will remain dead.

Comments, questions and more can be aimed here. Thank you. ♥ Our last event is upcoming pretty soon and we will wrap up within this month.

EVENT~



Everyone loved Jurassic Park - right?

Time: From November 7th (11:59 PM EST) to November 12th (11:59 PM EST)

Location: NYC (everyone will be pulled back no matter where they are)

EVENT DESCRIPTION: All the characters start out away from the apartment building that will be considered a safe zone for the most part. It has the most security, food, water and weapons for your characters to fight the dinosaurs that will try to break in and devour them. And believe us, they will try and try. There will be NPC updates when they will likely succeed.

But as if right now, everyone gets a map, their laptop and phone plus bottled water and a weapon of their choice. Guns, crossbows, knives - nothing huge or extra special and up to the players to decide. This isn't a very technologically advanced hunt and pretty low-tech in ways. It's going to be gritty and fairly Walking Dead-style but with dinosaurs.

There is no way out of the city, not with Mother Nature having taken over. Plants and more have overgrown, destroying the roads, airports, trains and more. You can try starting a car to get around but excessive and unnatural noises will agitate the plant life into trying to take over whatever is causing the sounds.

We would like to state again that all deaths will be for real. So if you are planning on one, plan wisely! Just in case: only characters in-game will be in the city! Pets may be around but that is up to players. Pet deaths will be permanent, though.

[info]mythopooc
The activity check is now over. The list below contains the characters that have been cut because they did not pass or failed to respond. If something doesn't seem right, you have until November 5th (11:59 PM EST) to contact us about it. After that time, they will be officially stricken from the game.

As always, you may contact us here, by AIM or PM to discuss things. If they below simply want to axe their characters, they can. If anyone else would like to drop or kill off a character, you'll have that chance in the next two events or even in between.

Cut Characters )

We are attaching on the announcement that we know a great deal of people are either very busy this month or have gone on hiatus. We mods are even trying to work as hard as we can to but because of circumstances out of our control and the expected stress of the holidays approaching, we are going to try to wrap up within this month. There will be one more event and then the final event.

After that freeplay will be put into effect for personal storyline to be pushed through. We will also allow any former players to be able to pick up characters they dropped if they feel like coming back for this freeplay. Further details will come through when the final event is over.

If you have questions, comments and the like, you know how to reach us. We thank you for hanging in there with us as we try to end properly. ♥

ACTIVITY CHECK


You have from now until NOVEMBER 3RD @ 11:59 PM (EST) to comment here with links for each of your characters with:

one journal post or log from the month of OCTOBER


We will check them all then and should they pass, you'll be given a "CHECK" (✓) to assure you all is well. If something appears wrong, you'll be notified so that it can be adjusted.

Once the cut-list has been made, it will be posted after the AC is over. Should something appear wrong, you have forty-eight hours from when we put the post up to notify us. After that point, everyone on that cut list will be removed from the game. Any corrections that need to be done to said list should be from those who replied to the activity check itself.

IMPORTANT DETAILS;

► You may only submit journal entries from OCTOBER 1ST to the time this check was posted on NOVEMBER 1ST. You may substitute a log for your journal entry. Please see the FAQ (under GAME OOC) for more details on log submissions.
► See our rules in the FAQ (under GAME OOC) for when you miss a post. Substitution is always case-by-case and requires previous mod approval.
Nothing from the OOC or CRACK community will count here, whether the entries are IC or not. Only in-game entries (AKA in journals and logs).
► Any posts made by your character after this post was made will not be counted in your check.
► What counts towards your check:
1.A mini-log
2.A proper log.
3.A private or not-private post that is one paragraph at least.
4.A short post that has 15 comments from your character.
5.A short post AND 15 comments from your character from that month- whether in that short post or other entries.


EXEMPTED FROM AC (aka those who let us know they'd be away):

→ Annabel: ✓
→ Joana: ✓
→ Tea: ✓
→ Zero: ✓

And with the IC post of the death of two NPCs, the event ends. Characters will find themselves at home or in a hospital, depending on what your character suffered. There will be little remaining from the semi-fabricated NYC 1950s but your character might find little things, like a pair of shoes, a hat or even a syringe.

And if your character died during the event (though we think everyone made it out this time!), people will begin to realize this when they don't come back at all. Play it as you like. The NPCs have done what they can to deliver their messages.

Comments, questions and more can be aimed here. Thank you. ♥

HI KIDS. This is a post to announce that there will be an attempt to break Hebe out of the hospital today (or there will be plotting for the attempt? I don't remember ljshslj), but you may all use this post for plotting purposes if there's someone to break out!

Keep in mind the possibility of success is like 0.2% unless it's a brilliant plan, BUT YOU NEVER KNOW. This has been an Angie post.

Today, a drive-by shooting occurred, between Death's mob and Ares'. His people were in the car, hers just outside of an establishment (let's roll with restaurant, that's under their protection). People were injured, people got killed. It was a damn bloody mess, no doubt.

Here is the thread of what was discussed. If you want your character to have been there, shot by accident, whatever - go for it! Feel free to get chatty in the comments and all that. Law enforcement and the like should totally be involved.

FTR, Death would have been injured but non-fatally. She'll have her own reaction post later when I know my internet won't be so annoying. X(

EVENT~



Nurse Ratched, is that you? Oh dear, godlings, this may be bad. Very bad.

Time: From October 23rd (11:59 PM EST) to October 30th (11:59 PM EST)

Location: NYC (everyone will be pulled back no matter where they are and attempts to leave will be thwarted)

EVENT DESCRIPTION: When the clock strikes midnight, the world will change. Your characters will find themselves in New York but one from the 1950s. Expect the change in wardrobe, hair style and how your character will be treated by the citizens of the city. Expectations will not be like those in the modern era, so keep in mind how women and men would be treated back then and apply it to how NPCs would treat your characters and whatever they do. Your characters will return to using paper journals once more, so be prepared for that. And among all the historical and old, there will be a building none will remember from that era, a proud old hospital serving those who are mentally unwell.

This is Schilling Hospital. Here, there are a variety of treatments, including electro-convulsive therapy, forced medically-induced comas and lobotomy. Less known are the exorcisms by some over-religious doctors and visiting priests, physical abuse and purposeful neglect. The staff know their duties and perform them well. Nurses wield power over the patients, the doctors even more so. The environment is brutal, unjust and none of the other patients will tell you it gets better.

That right, many characters (selected from our beloved volunteers) will suddenly find themselves within the walls of the asylum and they'll be told how long they really have been there when they ask. Or they'll be taken to the asylum on the first day of the event (it's player choice). Despite their very best protests, they'll be told they cannot leave, that this is for their own good. Everyone has a reason to be there, whether it's right or very, very wrong.

For example: Freyja's husband checked her in chronic weeping and believes her mentally disturbed. And so she can't check herself out. Of course her denying it only will make her seem more crazy.
Or: Hathor voluntarily checks due to stress in under the condition she will let the doctor decide when to let her out. Or even if she doesn't agree to that condition, suddenly it is made that way because the authorities here are outright corrupt - especially once you get to know them.

Regardless of how they get they, they aren't allowed out now. And these are the current residents: The List Of Patients )

The unlisted are in the city. Some of them have loved ones locked up. They are, of course, free to try to bust them out but, should they be caught, they'll become a new resident at the asylum. After all, whatever power you think you have, there's always going to be one (or more) greater than you. Or, perhaps, your character isn't so kind and may be trying to keep someone in the asylum.

On this note, if your character currently has a job that could be associated with the asylum, such as being a doctor, nurse or even janitor, they are feel to get involved there whether to help or hinder. As sometimes things can get violent, the law could get involved as well. But remember, control and power belongs to Khaos' people who will be sure to trap and announce things when they please. There is no legal or safe passage out of the asylum because they want you here. If you do escape, prepare to become a very wanted individual, the law being on the asylum's side.

If your character is in the asylum, feel free to list the reasons why below. If you need any mod input, please ask! It's optional to do all this but it can also help with plotting and more.

Questions, comments, thoughts are all welcome below. ♥

SIGN-UP POST


We have an event coming up and need you to volunteer your characters! No need to volunteer them all if you don't wish. We may not use every single one as well but we'd like to have a good selection for what is going to be happening soon.

NOTE: in fairness, we will say this will cause a great deal of stress for those who may be selected among the volunteers. So PLEASE be sure of who you are offering. Again, there will be mental, physical and emotional stress placed on them if not more. It's up to you to decide if you think your character can handle it or if you want them to have certain traumas.

If you have no one you can volunteer, that is ok! There will be something for everyone to do.

So before 2:00 PM EST on 22nd, go ahead and reply. This isn't mandatory and also keep in mind that we will not do anything incredibly vile to any character, especially if you suddenly realize that something happening is just not ok at all. Player feelings matter to us. Just remember our events depend on you being absolute OK and ready to roll with whatever happens. Again, please only volunteer if you are OK with your characters being chosen for this. You will only be allowed to know what happens once the event begins and not beforehand.

All comments are screened.

Hey guys!

This post here is something you'll need to know about the next event and any that follow it. From now on, if your character dies, they stay dead. There is no coming back this time. However, characters will not know this until after the upcoming event. So be sure to pick this option carefully if you want to go down this route!

PBs and that character will not be applicable or be allowed to be used again as this is a true character death.

We also want to add that applications and reserves will close at the end of the month. So if you really, really want to get someone in for these last couple of months, do it now. We are working hard on wrapping up things in a unique and helpful way. Thank you for sticking with us for as long as you have and please enjoy what is to come. ♥

Hello godlings~

We are at the end of our first October event. The fairies will cease whatever destructive or childish behavior they are up to and hover out of reach of the characters. Before they disappear, they'll offer them a warning (surprisingly in English):
Madness is but a symptoms of a larger problem
the result of a malady so deeply entrenched
that you've done nothing to stop it
and now you're screwed.

When everything is life and death
No matter what, we promise you this:
There is no happy ever after.


We hope you enjoy your poem, godlings, and get ready for more! Thank you. ♥

Hey Godlings!

A few of you might remember that a while back we mods began considering a closing date for Mythopoeics. As you all know we've been running for two years, and we closing in to what we feel would be a good ending for the overall game arc we've had. We have also taken into consideration that a lot of our players are busy and activity has been declining. So with those two things in mind, we feel that it is best to go out with a bang, wrap up our storylines and end this game neatly.

Therefore we have planned this end date to be early December. Before then, there will be events to urge forward the characters to reaching an end with Khaos. The spiral downwards has already started with our current fairy event, and at the end of this event we have something planned to help guide characters forward onto the next stage of the final act of Mythopoeics.

As always, we urge you all to speak up and give us any thoughts here, and yes we do have plans for an 'epilogue' comm where players will be able to spam to their hearts content after our end.

Thank you!

EVENT~



Welcome back, godlings, Khaos has missed you all...

Time: From October 12th (11:59 PM EST) to October 16th (11:59 PM EST)

Location: Everywhere

EVENT DESCRIPTION: Upon waking up (or if your character is not asleep then by accident) everyone will be greeted by a small fairy perched nearby. This fairy may be male or female (entirely up to you) and will follow your character around for the duration of this event. Swat at them, attempt to trap them or worse, they will prove to be nimble and clever to escape that intent. They will endure and remember it. Note the color of your fairy as well because it will matter. All of them begin in a pleasing brown-themed look.

If one is decent enough to these small creatures, the fairies will help out their reincarnated pal. Carry over a mug of tea (they are tougher than they appear), curl up in your character's hands to warm them (they are magical), offer sympathetic noises (they can't speak human languages, after all). Regrettably, at night, their natures will sour, their color shifting to orange. They might pull on hair (especially nose hair), screech in ears or scrawl on the walls using whatever they can find. In short, they'll behave like spoilt brats that can't be controlled or caught. By morning, however, they'll be sweet again.

However, these fairies can go from mischievous to wicked with one simple action. Should a character swat or attempt to do something against them, even by accident, that fairy will have a chance of heart. A mistreated fairy can never go back to being good.

So, godlings, if you haven't been good to your visitor, the mistreated fairies will prove themselves harmfully mischievous through out the day. Their pranks during the day, such as making strange and undesirable texts to your contacts, shutting down your computer or laptop while you're working and putting your car in reverse while you're at a light, are annoying but not overly dangerous. At night though wicked fairies are at their worse, they'll grow into something truly evil, deaf to any apology and numb to any idea of mercy. They'll find ways to see you fall down a flight of steps, will sever brake lines in cars, tip over lit candles and more. Their intent will be to do real damage unlike the well-treated fairies.

Unlike other fairies, the these wicked fairies will be red in color day and night, while the normal fairies will be brown during the day and orange at night.

The player is free to pick out personalities for their fairies as well as the good and bad that will come from having one.

tl'dr; you all have fairies, don't piss them off, or you'll break something. Normal fairies are brown during the day, orange at night; wicked fairies are red all the time.

Hello all, this is Annabel!

I am here to introduce four new characters! I was thinking of staggering it out a little, but I didn't want to spam the ooc comm. I'll keep this short and sweet, though, so you won't have to wade through too much text.

Elaine of Astolat ([info]gentleblossom) - Lily Liu, 19 y/o sophomore at NYU studying acting, originally from Vancouver, not aware of her past life. More info here.

Cáer Ibormeith ([info]swansonged) - Elle Moreaux, 20 y/o junior at Julliard, vocalist, studying to become an opera singer, originally from Oregon, somewhat aware of who she was. More info here.

Antigone ([info]antigonizing) - Phoebe Webb, 17 y/o high school senior, daughter of a politician, self-appointed activist, grew up in the NYC area, knows herself as Antigone. More info here.

Iris ([info]colorcoded) - Ekaterina Ivanovna Tarasova, 23 y/o postal worker/queen of odd jobs, immigrated here from Russia when she was younger, knows she's Iris. More info here.

So there you go! If anyone is interested in any lines or anything, they're totally up for it; if not, I'll get around to posting with them soon-ish. ♥

Hi hi! My name's Madeline and I'm brand new to the game, bringing you all Michael The Archangel! Or as his mortal name, Greg Sherman. He's 28, a physiatrist doing his residency at New York Presbyterian Hospital, working primarily with wounded veterans home from Afghanistan, rehabilitating them from nerve damage or traumatic injury. He's California raised but has been in New York City for quite some time, which might just be not so coincidental, as he is just now becoming more familiar with his true self. He's not all the way there yet, and isn't too comfortable going as Michael, but hopefully he'll get there!

Overall, Michael could stand to have a little more fun. He's always so serious and watchful, clearly having the capability to be the commander that his true self is, though he's working on it still. He can come off as a little bossy and no-nonsense, and is a perfectionist and way too hard on himself to boot. He's definitely looking forward to learning more about his neighbors, or finding out the truth behind some of the people he's known all along.

So sorry for this intro post being so late, I've just started a brand new job in a brand new city (with twelve hour days!), but I'm looking so forward to starting and jumping right on in! Of course, Michael would love to meet his "brothers," needs some friends to help him loosen up, and it would be amazing to come into contact with some of those other ex-colleagues. . .you know, before he helped throw them out of heaven and stomped the yard on their leader's head. . .you know, the usual. . .

His profile is HERE (pardon the mess, I need to pretty it and upload more icons!) if you want more info, and if so, hit me up with anything! Looking so forward to it, and can't wait to get started! <3

ACTIVITY CHECK


You have from now until OCTOBER 3RD @ 11:59 PM (EST) to comment here with links for each of your characters with:

one journal post or log from the month of SEPTEMBER


We will check them all then and should they pass, you'll be given a "CHECK" (✓) to assure you all is well. If something appears wrong, you'll be notified so that it can be adjusted.

Once the cut-list has been made, it will be posted after the AC is over. Should something appear wrong, you have forty-eight hours from when we put the post up to notify us. After that point, everyone on that cut list will be removed from the game. Any corrections that need to be done to said list should be from those who replied to the activity check itself.

IMPORTANT DETAILS;

► You may only submit journal entries from SEPTEMBER 1ST to the time this check was posted on OCTOBER 1ST. You may substitute a log for your journal entry. Please see the FAQ (under GAME OOC) for more details on log submissions.
► See our rules in the FAQ (under GAME OOC) for when you miss a post. Substitution is always case-by-case and requires previous mod approval.
Nothing from the OOC or CRACK community will count here, whether the entries are IC or not. Only in-game entries (AKA in journals and logs).
► Any posts made by your character after this post was made will not be counted in your check.
► What counts towards your check:
1.A mini-log
2.A proper log.
3.A private or not-private post that is one paragraph at least.

Hey! It's Nye! I just wanted to say I'm taking a hiatus this week. I've been slacking off with one of my classes, so I need to catch up. I will make sure to comment to the AC post, and might even be back early if I get my act together.

When I come back, I'll be sure to bug people for logs and stuff! :D

the most minor of changes


[info]moonlady
[info]mythopooc
I meant to do this a couple of days ago but whatever. The mods gracious accepted my plea for a mild edit to Chang'e's reincarnation history. She'll be from California and won't have moved around much at all since then. San Francisco pretty much and then New York City at eighteen. The change was because I couldn't really fit her into the Chicago scene in my head and kept thinking of how much better San Francisco would have been.

That is all. I don't think this really disrupts too much since she's so new still. She'll still be bubbly, impulsive and I need to push her out more, for better or worse for her. Just hit up my thread on the second plot post if you think you can give me CR for the wee change. I don't think a lot of characters are from California (I think?) but dkfaj anyway.

ALSO APP MORE CHINESE, RAWR. ♥

Hey godlings!

As the month approaches the end, we just want to let you know we are going to get back on track with events! We wanted to give folks a chance to adjust this month after Zurvan, to work out any details necessary and feel more comfortable. But October will be featuring two events, one earlier in the month and the other later. We think you'll find both to be very interesting and expect the second to be up there with things getting extra baffling and dangerous.

Khaos, who has been strangely silent, will return again in October as well. This will begin to push our game plot forward once more. Kala and the somewhat disenchanted but stuck Chiconahuiehecatl will also show up, of course.

Finally, we wish to remind all of our recent changes which can be read about again here. The activity check will go on as planned on October 1st.

We welcome all questions, suggestions and comments, dear players. Thank you for reading!

This is Margarita Salazar AKA Xochiquetzal. Former ballerina, current tango dancer. Of Mexican, Greek and Croatian decent, she was born in America, in New York. She's still pretty young in her early twenties but she knows who she is. And Aztecs > everyone else, ok. Especially Christian sorts who trampled on her people's beliefs. X| UNCOOL, GUYS.

Family, friends, ex/current lovers/boyfriends, fellow dancers, neighbours, enemies, etc - would love any of that! Anything else can be read in her profile. Apologies if I don't reply soon right now - busy Wednesday but I'll have more time laaaaate tonight. ♥

PLOT POST


This is as mandatory as the HMD (which means it's not). This is just to discuss and flesh out your characters or any plot plans you have. Maybe to get some help with those difficult characters that need to get involved more.

Here are some things to keep in mind: )

Have fun! ♥

Meet Raiju. Once he was this awesome creature surrounded by and made of lightning, companion to Raijin. Now, he is still awesome but more mortal and human. He's the youngest Park sibling. In his childhood, he was completely the unmanageable child who would show up dirty with one sock missing or bugs in his hair. Of course, he's in a better way now. He's a musician in his IDEK-what-number heavy metal band right now, we'll see if it lasts. He's pretty much going to be one of the not really serious characters, at least for now, just chilling and pestering his siblings. His English is pretty good by now though he prefers to stick to Korean whenever he can just because. Went to Colombia for a year but I kind of doubt he made any pals there since he wasn't even invested in whatever he was trying to do there because it wasn't his thing. Any friends he had could be childhood, found through weird ways, etc. Enemies or something are also SO welcomed.

Anyway, best you don't let him sleep on you. Don't poke him while he's asleep. Don't try to slow him down. Avoid him if you piss him off. And don't touch his siblings. ESPECIALLY CUTE AMATERASU, YOU ARE ALL SO BANNED FROM TOUCHING HER, HISSHISSRAWR. X(

Also, this is a good time to mention I'm sick again and will be slow while I rest and try to recover from this as fast as possible. September, why are you doing this to me? ;_______; Apologies for any weird rambling. GOOD NIGHT NOW.

Hello! It's Nye again. I just wanted to pop on and say Phobetor's around.

He's Edward, Theseus' nephew, an artist/slacker who loves the dark stuff and the ladies. He doesn't take himself seriously, and will joke around with everyone. It's easier to keep people away from his chewy center that way. He's not really a great and caring guy either. And he loves being Phobetor and having the power to give people nightmares. He actually has to touch a person this time. The longer he holds on, the worse the nightmare will be. He'll scare people other ways too, but that's his specialty.

I don't know what else to say about him. He'll be talking to everyone eventually. You can read more about him here. He's ready to poke everyone!

[info]pestilence
[info]mythopooc
Hi there! I'm new to the game and totally late with this intro, because even though I could have sworn I requested membership to the communities I had a total blonde moment and actually forgot to do so. Go me!

Anyway, I'm Nedra and I've got Pestilence. I'm really bad with intros (and it's really early where I live), so I'll try to make this brief. Pestilence comes off as cold and indifferent, doesn't smile much or like to be touched, and appears to be bored with everything. She's got a sarcastic sense of humor and she can seem to be uncaring about others, but does actually care for those whom she's deemed worthy of caring about. She will always put the other Horsemen above anything and everything else without even being ashamed about doing so. She can be quite needy and demanding with her friends and loved ones, is currently unemployed and knows who she is.

As for her ability; she can't make a healthy person ill, but she can make a sick person's symptoms worse. If you've got the flu but haven't felt the symptoms yet, Pestilence's touch might give you a runny nose or a sore throat etc. It doesn't always work and the more serious the illness is, the more likely it is for the ability to fail.

I'd love to have all kinds of lines and plots, and am looking forward to playing with you all!

Hello! This is Nye with Fenrir and Aengus.

Ryan, or Fenrir, has a bit of a temper, he's sarcastic, and he likes to surprise people with his smarts. He can be an arrogant buttmunch too. He does care about his family and the friends who get into his circle, like Polyxena. She's one of the few who know he's Fenrir. And she told him to show his face around here and look for his former family. Soon, there will be more who know who he is, but he's still going to be all secret about it if they aren't friends or current/former family. He's a mechanic, too. So, um, yea for that. And he's an oldie at 38.

Christopher (Topher), or Aengus, is the opposite. He's my baby, a 21 year old NYU student. He's a writer, and will become the next Nicholas Sparks. Why? Because he has to find his Caer. (He can't rely on other people to find her this time.) Cut to him dating other women. What?! Yeah, he's in love with his dream girl, but he's had plenty of girlfriends. He's nice, outgoing, will talk to everyone, but don't bother him during his writing time. Seriously. He's clever, but he can put his foot in his mouth and do things without thinking.

I think that's all. I'm excited to get to play with everyone and their characters! :D

Hello, I'm new to the game. My name is Cherry, and this is the angel Raphael. I'm really excited to be here. Raphael goes by David Houston in this life, and he owns a holistic medicinal shop. He can heal people when they're physically near him, and after about forty-eight hours, it goes away.

He's a pretty nice guy, he really likes to laugh and joke around. All he wants is to make people feel better, and would do pretty much anything for anyone if it did. Sometimes he has a temper, but mostly towards demons and people who give him lip. Oh and he's easily flustered.

Here is his profile. He looks forward to meeting his fellow angels, and everyone else. He's up for any and all plots you can give him, obviously both with his fellow reincarnates and everyone else who might know David. Oh and he knows who he is.

HELLO MYTHOPOEICS.

I'm just going to say I'm new to the game though I know a couple of you, but I am not new to the world of RP, still got those new character jitters though.

But before I get ahead of myself and ramble on, I'm Ivy, and I'm very excited to meet you all, fellow mythology fans. I'm bringing you two dudes from Greek Mythology, Eros at this journal and Zephyrus [info]westwards here. And hopefully Ninigi when i finish his app

I've never played Eros before so this should be a ton of fun, and Zephyrus is just dear to my heart so I had to bring him back after playing him for close to two years, and then not playing him for even longer.

I'm going to jump into that plot post and see if I can't get some CR rolling.

OKAY. OKAY. I have two kids with me, and they should be my last for some time, because ahahahaha over 20. So my first is: Wadjet! She's Jacoline Olivier in this life, training at Columbia to be an RN, she's from Martinique, and she's been in NYU since undergrad year. She's a fierce little bear. If you ever need someone to go threaten people, she's the one to go to. And she knows who she is! Goes by Jackie or Jac here.

Second is Bakeneko ([info]nekokami), who is not Bakaneko because lsjhsljsh that means something else. Now he's Shinji Maruyama, a total slacker in life, a bartender at some bar I haven't figured out yet, and he is nooot aware of who he is. But he has three cats, and I think that is relevant. Will go by Shinji or Maru.

Oh, and this is Angie. ♥ GIVE ME THINGSSSS.

This is Týr. He was my excuse to use Joe Manganiello. ...I mean, he's my first Norse male. He's 37, a lawyer from the lovely state of Louisiana. Second eldest among his siblings in his very justice-inclined mortal family, he pretty much didn't travel from the state until this last couple of years. What can he say, he got comfortable at home.

Oh and he totally had some of Agravaine's mortal sister who happens to be Pheme's mother. Has no idea he has a kid out there. He is available to have past clients (though he practiced in Louisiana mostly), current ones, friends, neighbours, lovers, ex-lovers, etc. PRETTY much anything goes. TBH, I think he probably doesn't make for the greatest boyfriend. It's kind of my head-canon since Loki was all like 'your lady was cheating on you, hurrhurr' and maybe there is some truth to this. You know, relating to how he might prefer a pile paperwork for a case over his lady in La Perla.

Anyway, I'm all sort of feverish and groggy so I apologize for any slowness or lack of coherency on my part. September is just the season for feeling down, isn't it? X(

Howdy folks!

With no more Zurvan we are going to bring in a few changes to the overall structure of the game. This is hopefully, to provide more playing times for all, more plotting goodness and such. So here:
First: Activity Check; Will change to one post per month. We do, however, expect the posts to be more substantial than one or two sentences please! See here for more. Also note that character application slots are open now all the time, so you're free to request whenever (begin, middle, end of the month) up to a total of three. There is one catch however: should you want to increase your character roster, your activity should be more than the one post/thread requirement. ie. If Tea wants an extra slot or two, she'd have to make sure most her characters have at least one post and ten comments at the time of her request. This will only apply next month and onward as we currently have given everyone (current or new) five slots so enjoy ♥

Second: Players who have more than two characters are also now exempt from character samples. We have discussed this and feel that you guys have done a wonderful job with your kidlets, as such we trust you. Should you want to do samples regardless, you're more than welcome to, but a lack of samples does not count against your application. However, should we be on the fence about your character we mods may request samples in order to make a final decision. This applies as of right now.

Third: Plot posts will now be done twice a month, once at the beginning, and the second towards the middle of the month.

As always, any thoughts are welcome, and can be directed here, to our email or our modbox.

Thank you lovelies!

This important announcement brought to you by my ass the most amazing and splendiferous KAITLIN...

Meet Tam Kung! He's a Meteorologist because that's what cool people who can predict the weather do, duuuuh. ANYWAY!!! He's 29, comes from England and can make ladies pregnant by just looking at them. Okay, that last part is a lie. He can't do that. But he's pretty awesome anyway. He used to be able to cure people when he was a CHILD...so...this will be your worst sick patient ever. I think maybe he and Jubokko could probably be the overall worst. "DON'T LOOK AT ME, I'M HIDEOUS" and all that. Also he's married and has a kid...AND ALSO...a looooot of cousins...so don't be shy.

Sooooo...Feel free to look at his bio and while you're doing that, take a gander at this amazing picture.

Also this )

EXCUSE ME WHILE I AM EXTRA LAZY AND JUST ADD STYX ONTO THIS ENTRY! OKAY! Styx is here...and she's working for Maudy-pants. Umm...she's super cool. And super awesome...and everyone will love her...only you should be careful about touching...because...no. She doesn't want all the humens touching her. Look at how lovely she issssss.

BABIES~ Angie here. Have another one: this is Adam. Yes, that Adam. You know might his canon: the Bible. It's this pretty popular book you might've heard about, I can't assume. Adam basically had a lot of things going for him, like animals and plants and cool horticultural things, until Eve told him to eat some fruit. And then they were fucked.

In this life, he's Welsh-born Cedric Leafe, older brother to Nimue/Dylan Leafe, and 28 going on 29. He is a newly licensed vet of about a year, and he's been in NYC for about four months. He's a sexist jerk who doesn't take responsibility for his actions, but he's good to animals, so there's that. He's not too terrible.

Come to me now. ♥

Guys, guys, this is my newish kid. Meet Uzume from the Shinto Pantheon. You might know her from the 'hey, you know best way to get Amaterasu out of her hiding place so she can go bitchslap her brother and give us light? Dance and get half-naked'.

She's a single child, raised in a very rich but very strict environment and now that she's on her own (and has been since her 18th birthday), she lives as she wants. Which means her house is like a B&B most of the time. Love her, she's friendly, I swear.

Hello all, Jill here, introducing a new face for you all to worship and drool over, preferably in that order and from afar. Who is this lovely creature, you're wondering? Why, she's the one and only Nimue~

In this life, she's the Welsh-born Dylan Leafe, a recent transplant to NYC working as an 'occultist'. She's 23 years old, has a cute little accent, and doesn't take any shit from any former druids who are/were prone to thinking with their lower head. Yeah, she went there.

Her application is here, and I'd love to get her some friends and connections.

Meet Ittan-momen, known as Min-sik Kang in this current life. Born in Osaka, he lived there until he was in his late teens. His grandfather's death kind of saddened him and then he came to New York. Became a paramedic and then ended up crime scene clean-up which jolted his memory.

He's a little :| about the direction his life is going and spooking/threatening him may result in something unpleasant. But he is pretty damn cheerful outside of that! Bit of a prankster, a little goofy at heart. Can conjure up a cotton buddy (something like this, obviously) that may be capable of murder, jsyk. It's effing adorable, though.

Friends, targets, etc would be welcomed. I'll get to replies later today as I'm going to bed now. NIGHT, GUYS sdkjfs

Oh shit you guys, It's an Anteros, get in the car!

No, seriously, you don't want this crazy kid all up in your grill. Being around him makes you feel loved, like for real and true. And he's smirky, and smug. Plus, he's one of Ares and Aphrodite's kids, and you know how that crew rolls...

In this life, he's Akiva Love, a Psychology grad student at NYU who works as an advice columnist on the Love Line radio show. He's also Agrat Bat Mahlat's baby bro, and if that doesn't make him hardcore I don't know what will.

So, give me stuff. Please.
