ty jessie for writing the recap. :') and ty everyone for submitting so many player events!! we have a jam packed schedule this month! we're starting to ramp up the plot and sprinkle in some more horror elements too, so we hope you enjoy~ π
in the last chapter...
Willow discovered a way to quickly travel between the newly named Goosetown and Octoberville.
In addition to Town 1 becoming Goosetown and Town 2 becoming Octoberville, The Business District was officially renamed to The Business District.
The largest cairns yet seen on the island showed up inside two pranksters homes.
Throughout the island, interesting looking eggs were discovered by our inhabitants and some even started hatching!
The wisps, a ghost captain, and Peter were depressed for a day and didn't want to do anything. Wonder what happened?
The Wizard's Tower became unlocked and three adventurers found old photographs of Mother Goose, The Frog, and Peter Pan inside with their eyes scribbled out.
CJ learned that the wishing well is sentient can communicate with the tales.
Gilly appears to have transformed into a stuffed toy.
The island has a Welcome Website now for new arrivals, brought to you by the Welcome Committee. Have your character fill out the birthday form so Welcome Committee knows when to celebrate!
Please only claim one volunteer spot per player. Once 48 hours has passed as of the time of posting, you may claim more but we want to be sure to give everyone a fair shake!
Volunteer spots highlighted in blue are special slots that are meatier than the others and usually involve the discovery of metaplot nuggets. They will require some sort of public update that lets the island-at-large know about this; this can be a journal, flash reactionary, or ic/ooc— unless the slot specifies, it's up to you!
These are very limited. To keep things fair, if you grab a special slot this month you won't be able to grab one next month. (But if one is left unclaimed after 48 hours, you can claim it even if you claimed one the previous month.)
In the event that these slots are sat on and forgotten about, or if the knowledge gained isn't shared with the rest of the island, the mods reserve the right to reclaim the spot and distribute the information as they see fit.
the players of these characters must wait 48 hours before claiming a special slot this month:
