Ah, how rewarding! June 1 - June 14
Free play - no plot points
Congratulations!
Some of you have survived six months on the Orient Express, and many of you are well on your way there. As a result, you’ve all earned two weeks of free play at the luxurious, most expenses paid Mobius Resort!
Unfortunately, this resort has been removed from the monitored network of resorts at the Mobius command center, and the rescue team has no idea that the train is here. How convenient! While the train is stationed here, it will remain locked and inert. No passengers may get onto the train, and no new passengers will arrive. All of your character's belongings from the train will be transported to their chosen room within the resort.
Below, you’ll find a list of available activities, a description of the accommodations, and an idea of what’s available at the shops. The point lists are pretty much guidelines -- if you want something but don’t see it listed, let me know and we’ll work out a point deduction for the item you desire. Things are kind of kept vague for the purpose of handwaviness, but I do encourage that you use your judgement in regard to requests.
For things that are listed as groups (like drugs, and potion ingredients) if you can provide specifics, that’s highly encouraged -- even if said specifics are “ingredients to make a sleeping draught” or “drugs that have X effect”.
While the characters are enjoying the reprieve from the sweltering prehistoric jungle, the train is undergoing a full cleaning and restocking as well as an expansion. I would like to note that the train is restocking food, toilet paper, feminine products, and basic necessities (or … you know, things modern folk consider necessities). It is stocking the bathrooms with generic shampoos and body washes. So the point expenditure things are for your character’s favorite brand/scent. If you opt not to purchase toothpaste or shampoo, it just means your character’s using the generic, not that they don’t have any at all.. I’m not trying to make people blow points on “necessities”, but to encourage point spending in general. Why yes, this is a point sink.
General
Your character, upon arrival at the resort, will have one complete outfit (including shoes and underthings) for every month/partial month they’ve been on board (discounting the three days in November). These will either show up in their chosen room, or in their cabin on the train, whichever you prefer.
If your arrival date falls between … you have this many outfits: November 28 - December 31 = 6 January 1 - January 31 = 5 February 1 - February 29 = 4 March 1 - March 31 = 3 April 1 - April 30 = 2 May 1 - May 31 = 1
Your character, of course, cannot stay at the resort once the train departs. Whether or not they’re back on board, they’ll show up there when the train’s moving again.
Accommodations
This is a luxury resort, so think upscale hotel rooms. The character can either take a room to themselves, share a suite with friends, or have a double bed for themselves and their partner. Once your character has chosen their accommodations, then their name appears on the door, along with whomever they’ve opted to room with.
Each room will be pretty much the same, with either a single king bed or two queen beds. A full bathroom with shower and tub, cable TV with free movies. Meals are served by automatons (there are no human staff members) and everything at the resort (aside from the credit shops) is free.
Activities
The Mobius resort is situated on the shore of a large mountain lake. There are beach activities, water activities, hiking, mountain climbing, horseback riding, and so on. There are indoor and outdoor tennis courts, a full gym facility, a full spa (staffed again by automatons rather than actual people). There is free wi-fi and a computer facility inside the full library. There is a bowling alley and a movie theater as well as an open, indestructible training room that can be programmed for different features (obstacle courses, shooting ranges, magical defense, etc).
For those not inclined to stay with the masses, there are cabins dotting the mountainside; your character is free to camp out in one of those.
Credit shop
When your character disembarks, their device will reflect the number of credits they have. This number is equivalent to the number of points your character has accrued. Your character can spend these credits on anything within the stores, whether the purchase is for them or for a friend.
No character can steal from the credit stores. They can take what they want, but if they don't have the credits to pay for everything they're trying to carry out, what they can't afford will be left behind in the store.
No character under the age of consent in their world will be allowed into the adult store.
When you comment to spend the points, please use the following form:
Since the store list is legit huge, you can find it here. If you don’t see what you want, again, we do take special requests, so please ask and we’ll negotiate point expenditure for desired items.
