Clockwork Curses and Events

my little pony
&
foodstuffs
C U R S E

Starting April 13 at midnight [CST], two separate curses will strike separate wings of the hotel. For Wing A, residents have the delight of walking on cheese floors; turning jello door knobs; sitting on a giant pair of roasted ribs that have suddenly replaced the chairs. Even articles of clothing - especially bedsheets - turn into food. Edible food (at least, you hope. some rotten eggs may have taken the place of lightbulbs). Be careful not to eat through the floor or melt the listerine window panes!

But Wing B hasn't been forgotten. Every character who is in Wing B when the clock strikes midnight (or any character out in the city) will be turned into a My Little Pony. A symbol representing your character will appear on their back flank-- their hooves will be giant and squishy- their manes with sparkle pretty pony colors.

These two curses will last until April 18th, midnight [CST]. Characters may be 'conveniently' in other wings to get hit with the different curses. Characters are allowed to move in and out of Wing A. The My Little Pony curse may wear off any time during the week, if the player so chooses. Any questions or purposed plotting? Comment here.

King useless and reverend limpid identify them...
Or how don't we rots?
But reverend limpid did torment us?
You didn't drifted~
And how don't i gasp?
Ohms are outside madame ironical~
I didn't lurk~

It's that time again!

( You know, the one that you were all waiting for! )

LOVE and HATE
curse.

As seen here. Starting now, this curse will last until February 16th.

( And the match-ups! )

$ SOAP OPERA $
.:[CURSE]:.

As described here, it'll last from now until February 12th. Characters involved will think that the City of Clockwork are their homes-- while characters outside simply have no idea how their next door room mate got a jacuzzi.

Well, citizens of Clockwork, while you're still reeling from the bronco fiasco, we've got a few curses for you to vote in or out for the up-coming weekend.

The one most voted for will be featured -- the rest might just show up later, for the next round. As it is, we have...

( ... Under here... )

Rollin', rollin', rollin'~
Keep them dogies rollin'~
Man my ass is swollen, Rawhide~!
Round em up, ride em in, get em up, get em dressed,
Comb their hair, brush their teeth, Rawhide!
Tie me down, tell me lies, pull my hair, slap my thighs
With a big wet strap of, Rawhide~!

That's right, it's officially time for the next curse! So saddle up your horses, get those tumbleweeds a-tumblin', and, oh yeah, say hello to Sheriff Mustang and Deputy Hitachiin!

Rockin' around the Christmas tree~
At the Christmas party hop~
Mistletoe hung where you can see~
Every couple tries to stop~

It's that time of year again~! Mistletoe will be appearing randomly throughout the building. And anyone who happens to be unfortunate (or perhaps fortunate) enough to get caught under it will be, quite literally, caught under it until they kiss someone whether it's the person they got caught with or, for you lone wolves, whoever might come along. It can be a kiss on the lips, the cheek, or anywhere on the face, but better get smooching! Or you'll be stuck there all week~

In other words the curse starts now and ends Sunday night at midnight PST.

As almost always the curse is OPTIONAL.

It's that time again~

We have two curses going to happen at the same time, you may choose one, or the other, or both... or none :|



.:The Yoda Curse:.

Pretty obvious. Speaking like yoda, your characters will be. Hmmmmmm. if problems with that, you have, this page just use.





.:The Mood Ring Curse:.

Everyone changes color depending on their mood, according to the color guideline. Can be done with icons, text, or *action notes*, but it has to be done and done honestly. Everybody gets to know how you feel... or at least those who can decode the color guide. Is up to you to decide what they'll be changing on themselves to show their mood in person, which means their hair... or their noses, can change from black to green suddenly, anything goes, from clothes to skin, it must be noticeable.

Here is a color chart for your entertainment, go crazy.

( Color guideline )



Doubts? Please ask~

These curses start RIGHT NOW! And will be active all the week, ending on midnight CST Sunday, December 7th.

Have fun ♥

ETA: The html code for the black background is [span style="background-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"] ur text here [/span] /o/

Something deep in your mind,
someone that you treasure with all you heart,
or a demon that frightens you at night.
A memory in the end, anything can be,
just... something you should never forget, as important as it is.

Something that you were sure it was yours, way before the bells sang...

DIN DON DON DIN...

Wait a minute! Or perhaps two! It's not there anymore!
Whatever it was, it's gone!
Ah, but you won't miss it, don't worry,
because you won't remember that you lost it!



Hello there little ones, say hi to the:

.:Amnesia Curse:.

Just after the bells of the main clock stop, your characters will forget a very important thing, a very important person, or even a event. As simple as that. Others might try to remind them of it, but they'll fail.

This curse starts... NOW!!!!!!!!!!! And will end on midnight CST Monday, November 17th.

It's an optional curse. If you have any doubts, feel free to ask!

Have fun, lovelies.

Tick, tack, tick, tack, clink...

..."clink"?

Somehow your character isn't going to like metal for a while.


Starting tomorrow, Clockwork time (meaning, about... 12 hours from now), your characters will wake up in a room of your choosing (it can be the one character's or the other's, or another totally different) handcuffed to another character. These are special handcuffs, unbreakable, no matter how omnipotent your character might be, with a chain long enough to give a maximum 5ft distance between your characters, and if your character turns into an animal, one of the handcuffs' end will change to a leash suitable for the type of animal.

Now, we're starting this only twelve hours from now so you can have time to plot with other muns about their reactions/actions/so forth. The sorting was done in a total random "papers in hat" method, and these are the pairings that will(?) last through the weekend.

Spitfire/Al
Ed/Roxas
Nero/Ikki
Raven/Sano
Yoshitsune/Mitsuru
Ammy/Tim
Grimmjow/Minato
Watari/Allen
Tobias/Setsuna
Duo/Vash
Agkito/Cake
Kazu/Haruko
Manic/Giovanni
Hisoka/Haine
Cloud/Badou
Gatomon/Farf
Gojyo/Hitsugaya
Kim Possible/Sora
Lute/Rtas
Nichol/Zidane
Shuro/Squalo

Any questions, complaints, love offerings to your mods? Have at it here. We take room keys, too.

♠

What's this, the closets have returned?

Three cheers for that! Open them!

...uh. Not as planned. What's this animal doing here?

WAIT WHAT, IT TALKS?!


[[WELCOME TO THE DAEMON CURSE! If you're aware of the His Dark Materials' world, then you know what this is all about! Inside the closet you'll find your daemon, who is pretty much the animalistic material form of your soul. Here's more information daemons here.

Also! If you're having trouble to decide what your character's daemon would be, I'll just point you towards this site and to that tiny little animal next to the words "Meet your daemon".]]

GOOD MORNING CLOCKWORK FAMILY

IT'S THE EXTREME MAKEOVER TEAM!


...only not, not really. No ambiguously gay decorators nor badass demolition teams. What you have here is nothing but a building picking up the pieces to become what it was before.

Some of you might be doing a good job cleaning things up, I'm sure the citizens are doing their share to help out, and that shows. The clean, eerily empty rooms and hallways are slowly coming back to the way they were. Simple and functional, not yet ready for the luxury the premises offered you characters. The walls slowly rose. In some places, you can see a clean, but dull carpet covering the floor. The doors have clean frames, and so do the windows. Most of the rubble is gone, or fading.

But who said that humans were the only ones allowed to make mistakes?

Imagine you are in a hallway, walking with a companion to get to your destination - whatever that is. There's a small cupboard against the wall on your left, right ahead of you, and on it, a lamp that attempts to illuminate a part of your path.

You keep going, and give a step forward, and the cupboard is still against the wall on your right--

--wait. Right?

So it would seem. And yet, as if nothing happened, the lamp is still in the same place, as if held by a wire, hovering on the air. And the small cupboard is right on the opposite side.

You and your companion turn to each other to discuss the matter. You might be surprised, you might be amused, you might be terrified. Are the ghosts back and playing tricks?

And yet, suddenly, you find yourselves back to back instead.

And you, who happened to be suddenly facing a window, see its glass cracking, breaking, shattering to pieces that fall on the floor. Careful now, don't step on the broken glass. Except that if you blink, you'll see the glass intact again. And you, who happened to be suddenly facing a window, see its glass cracking, breaking, shattering to pieces that fall on the floor. Careful now, don't step on the broken glass.

...hmm. Deja vu?

Let's make this simpler for you. The building is picking up the pieces, it's rebuilding itself. Yet, it seems it's making a few mistakes. Geographically speaking, it's mutating. You'll find yourself in the middle of that transaction. Most objects you'll see will be misplaced the next second. Careful where you're going, don't end up in a broom closet. And make sure that staircase is going to end where you think it's going to end.

And if you see that black cat passing by you after grooming its fur. Don't worry. It might just happen again.

Its no surprise to me I am my own worst enemy~
Cuz every now and then I kick the living shit out of me~

((As per the vote a week or so back, the next curse is the Nemesis Curse! For those that don't remember, characters that are affected will turn either physically and mentally, or just mentally into their canon antagonist! Those that are simply changed mentally will find nothing strange about the fact that they're suddenly in someone else's body. Keep in mind that the change doesn't necessarily have to be into your character's Arch-Nemesis, as we're well aware that some characters simply don't have one; it can be something as simple as changing them into someone that simply has an opposite personality/viewpoint/value system/what have you than your character. If you still can't think of someone that fits from your character's canon, then we will allow you to change them into an antagonist from inside CW (which doesn't mean you can't use someone from the same canon that's also in CW, just to clear that up now). But we'd like that to be a last ditch effort.

As always the curse is optional. It will end Tuesday night at midnight EST, and starts . . . NOW!))

((IMPORTANT ETA: Just a reminder that the affected characters will have to watch everything they/their antagonist does from the sidelines of their own brain! Think Ginny Weasley being possessed by Tom Riddle in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.))

Hey guys~ It's about that time again! We're going to take a voting on which curse you'd like to have next~ We have two choices for you~

A) The Nemesis Curse : Those affected by this curse will suddenly have their personalities switched with their canon nemesis. Yes, that's their opposite from their own canon, not from within the Hotel. If it's someone who doesn't have a direct nemesis, per se, go with the person most opposite of them. The new personality will become the dominant one, completely overriding the original, but leaving it pushed into a corner, basically. In other words, they'll be able to watch everything going on, but they won't be able to do anything at all about it. It'll be up to player discretion whether this change is just personality or a complete change of form and all. Whichever way you choose, though, the new personality will think this is the way they've always been, no matter what the change.

OR

B) Genderswitch Curse : ... do I really need to explain this one? |Da

So! Leave a comment telling us which one you'd rather have, guys! That will be the curse that will start this weekend~

If you have any questions, feel free to ask! ♥

Hey guys~

The next curse has been decided upon! Starting RIGHT NOW we have:

.: THE WINGED CURSE :.

That's right~ Your characters will suddenly find themselves blessed with wings! Any size, any shape, any type. Angel wings, demon wings, fairy wings, butterfly wings. Whatever you like! Be creative! Have fun with it!

This curse is entirely optional. You don't have to participate if you want. It starts right now, the second you're reading this, and it will run until midnight CST on Monday, June 2nd.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask! Enjoy~ ♥♥

Exactly a day after the Great Grey Storm broke across the city the rain... stopped. As though someone had turned off a faucet. The deep dark clouds lingered afterwards, keeping the city dim and grey before, finally, they began to break up. The water rushing in the streets and drains of the city slowed, leaving buildings and streets soaked but washed almost eerily clean. Eerie because even though the sun continued to chase away the dim, everything seemed vaguely colourless. As though the rain had washed even the colour away. It lingered like that as the storm clouds continued to dissappate until, rather suddenly, there was a great flash of colour near the beach.

Since then The Rainbow has been growing.

Inexorably arcing it's way across and over the city, the Rainbow will bring with it a flood of colour. Brilliant colour. Returning the city and everything in it to the shade it should be, but at the same time... brighter. As though the colour is brand new and hasn't faded yet. Nothing and no one is safe from the Rainbow. Those who were still under a curse will find it suddenly and swiftly broken from them when the Rainbow reaches them. And those uncursed who venture out into the slow spread of colour across the city will find themselves turned entirely a new colour, from head to toe!


(( Welcome to The End of Pleasantville! The Rainbow will spread across the city, slowly, over the next 24 hours. Right at the moment, the Rainbow will only have just just started. Anybody who goes out into it will get completely coloured, clothes and all, in a nice bright colour! And if they go away and then venture back into it, they'll change again! So it's entirely up to you guys if you want to have your characters get coloured this way. It's totally optional~ The only thing that's NOT optional is that this officially ends the Pleasantville Curse for those who have been inactive. I think it's time to move on to something else, don't you? |3a The colour your character turns will last until the Rainbow has dissappeared again, which will be at sunset on Monday. So about 7pm CST tomorrow! Enjoy~ ♥ ))

Today, dark clouds have been rolling in across the ocean. Lightning flickers and leaps within the clouds, lighting them up forebodingly. As the storm grew nearer, the city grew eerily silent. The many faceless people of the city closed their shops up tight and seemed to vanish within the depths of their buildings. The closer the storm crept, the more they dissappeared. The few birds that live within the city limits slowly grew silent and vanished as well until finally, the entire city felt like a darkened ghost town, even the sun vanishing beneath the ominous clouds.

Before they break.

Torrents of cold rain pound the buildings of the city and anyone insane enough to venture out in it like daggers of ice. Lightning, brilliant enough to light the blackened sky light it was midday, streak between the clouds though strangely, never hit the ground. Thunder, loud and close enough to rattle the windows even on the hotel follow every flash almost instantly. Everywhere is rushing, bubbling water, pounding down gutters, overflowing storm drains. The clouds obscure the light enough that the whole city seems to have gone a dull, lifeless grey.

The Great Grey Storm has hit.

Do you think you need to build an ark?


(( Hey guys~ This is Part One of The End Of Pleasantville. It is going to storm like many of the residents have never seen for 24 hours. The rain is icey cold and falling hard and fast enough to really hurt. So venturing out into it will likely lead to stinging skin and being chilled right to the bone really fast. It's obviously not a natural rain. So... enjoy the violent storm! It will break sometime tomorrow afternoon. ♥ ))

.: The LOLCats/Rainbow Cussing Curse :.

Starting tonight at Midnight CST, people all over the building will start having one of two symptoms: Some of them will be unable to type anything without it coming out like an LOLCat, the others will be spewing rainbows whenever they curse aloud, and they'll come out in rainbow font when they type. It's entirely optional and will last until Midnight CST on Sunday night.

For those of you that are lazy *cough* I have these handy links for you to make your life easier!

The LOLCat Translator!
The Rainbow Font HTML Generator!
And optional for the Rainbow Cussing Curse:
The Sparkly Text Code!

Hey guys~ It's that time again!

.: The Vampire Curse :.

Yup! That's right! For a week, starting at midnight CST tonight, residents of the building will suddenly be turned into bloodsucking monsters!

Now, the way it's going to work is this. To make sure the place doesn't just get overrun with vampires and no one to feed from, every player can choose ONE of their characters to be turned. So that's ONE CHARACTER PER PLAYER. Those of you who only have one character? You can decide if you want them to be vampire or victim!

To clear up some of the questions that have already arisen and are likely to again, We have details.

For the vampires:

The style of vampire is up to your choosing! Pick your favourite vampire myth and run with it~ ALSO! It is entirely up to you as to how deeply your character is affected by this change! As in, you can decide whether they just immediately fall into the role of a dark predator without remorse, or do they retain some semblance of themselves and suffer with the dark urges and needs they've been given?

For the victims:

Your characters cannot be turned for this curse. This is to keep the building from simply being overrun with vampires anyways a couple of days from now. None of the traditional means of turning will work during this curse. Those who are victims, stay victims. If they're killed by a vampire, they'll come back to life after 24 hours, same as always. And yes, sunlight will save you if you go outside during the day, but when the sun goes down... the city belongs to them~

However! Like all good vampire stories, there are ways to hunt and kill these monsters as well! The most common means, of course, being a stake through the heart. Dragging them into sunlight will work as well (though how quickly that works does depend on the style of vampire, but sunlight is still detrimental). Beheading a vampire will also kill them. But! As with the rules of the building... they will return in 24 hours as well~

As stated, the curse will begin at Midnight CST tonight and will run until Midnight CST on April 3rd. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Have fun, guys~ >3 ♥

Hey guys~

Lists have been updated as well as ClockworkMaster's friends list! This includes:

[♥] HOUSING [♥]
[♥] TAKEN CHARACTERS [♥]
[♥] ADD/REMOVE [♥]
[♥] PLAYER CONTACT [♥]

Please just double check to be sure your characters are on the lists properly and that their information is correct and such. Now! Onto...

♥ The Loveless Curse ♥

For those of you familiar with it, this is basically the premise from the Loveless manga. For those of you who aren't familiar with it, it's very simple.

You'll have a cat ears and tail. If you're still a virgin that is~

Pretty straight forward, really. Those characters who are still innocent and pure (Pfft... ahahaha *smacked*) will suddenly bear cat ears and a tail! For the furry types in our midst, it's up to you whether they stay in their normal forms and just get cat ears and a tail instead of their usual ones or if the curse decides to be extra mean and makes them human with cat ears and tail for the duration.

The curse will run for the weekend. And since I'm lazy and didn't get this done when I should have... the curse starts NOW!! 8D And runs until midnight CST on Monday, March 17th.

Happy White Day~ |D ♥♥♥
