Rainbow Bridge RPG

[The days have been colder and colder lately, but today's scenario will feel abrupt even for those who were already stocking up on blankets and warm sweaters. From early on in the morning, and for a few long days, everything will be white, covered in fluffy snow. Did you live in a comfortable house somewhere? Well, surprise, your homes have all changed to smaller cottages scattered here and there, in the middle of the snowy scenery. And they'll be pretty empty inside, as well.

You might want to head out and gather supplies somewhere, especially wood to start fires so you don't freeze to death. But during the day, a blizzard will happen and make it difficult to find your way around again!



It'll be a good time to team up with others and use your skills (magic does still work, this time) to reach home and stay warm for the next couple of days. Watch out at night, especially, when monsters from the forests and swamps might come lurking around!]

[[Blizzard post! Go cuddle in the middle of the storm.]]

[Whatever plans you had for today, they'll have to be postponed for a little while. Why? Because of the pools. Which pools? Inflatable pools, showing up here and there across the entire world's map.

Of course, they're not just simple water pools. Some do contain water, yes. Others have colorful plastic balls in them. Others have jell-o. Or mud. Or ice-cream. Or pickles. Or stacks of books. Or old photographs. They vary a lot! And you never know which one you'll get.



Oh, yes, because you'll absolutely end up in these pools. Either you trip when one appears magically in front of you, or somehow find yourself transported into one, people will definitely end up stuck in the pools. With a partner, of course, we don't want anyone to be lonely.

You and your new pool companion will be stuck there for a while, magically unable to leave, until either some time passes, or you two find a few common ground topics to chat about. As usual, the key is interacting! You don't want to stay stuck in mud all day, afterall, do you?]

[[Pools post! Go get stuck with someone. || EN ESPAÑOL. Post de piletitas! Vayan a quedar pegados con alguien.]]

[The video shows Mokona on a tablecloth set out for a picnic at one of the parks, various white flower bouquets around her along with some boxes of white candy. She's wearing a pretty little white dress, tiny enough to fit her, along with a pretty "hair" accessory that's perched by one of her ears. She does a little excited hop, gesturing around herself with her tiny paws.]

Mokona looks pretty! And Mokona got a lot of White Day presents! [As everyone can see.] Mokona can still receive more of them today!

[The video turns to Fay, sitting near her, smiling at the camera.] Of course, that's only if people want to give Mokona anything in return for her Valentine's Day presents. [His smile might turn a little more sharp, perhaps threatening, for a second there.]

But remember, it's tradition~ [So you better spoil their little white fluffy child, or else.]

[[Little White Day post! Go spoil Mokona or have an outing of your own.]]

[Now that everyone's had a chance for a nice meal, a hot shower and plenty of rest in comfortable beds, it's time for a little celebration. It's Valentine's Day! And Rainbow Bridge won't let anyone miss that, with cute and colorful decorations showing up all over the place.

Hearts, ribbons, flowers, teddy bears, and candy motifs everywhere you look, shops will carry relevant items for the occasion, if you want to have a romantic day or show a friend your appreciation. However, it won't be all that happens.



Whenever you're close to someone you appreciate in some way, a valentine's day card might show up! To save you the trouble of getting your own, have magically generated cards available. They'll have a feature where they read what's written on them out loud, so everyone can know how you really feel!

And this time, you might be sharing it with even more people. After the world changed again into its normal form, everyone was given something new - a communicator. These cute smartphone-like gadgets can show both text and video, and they're linked to everyone else's communicator! You can send a private message to a single person, or broadcast something for everyone to see!]

[Forget about any plans you had for the following days. Whatever you had in mind, it'll all be postponed as the entire world changes. That's right, starting today and for a couple of weeks, the entire land will shift and change into something else - a deserted island.

Surrounded by the sea, and hosting a large jungle in the middle, you'll wake up to find yourselves in what's seemingly the middle of nowhere, on this empty island you'll now have to survive in. Gone are the usual comforts of hot water and easy meals, and instead you'll have to hunt and build your own shelter to survive the days and nights here.

To help you out with this task, you'll have a few things available. Scattered nearby when you wake up in this new land, you'll find knives, backpacks with a few extra clothes, some rope, buckets, and a few other utensils. Those who already owned guns or swords can keep them for the time being, although magic powers won't be working for the duration of the scenery change. If you venture into the jungle, you'll find a few abandoned huts, with some repairs needed to be usable but better than the sand outside.




It's probably a good time to team up with others, combine forces to make the best of a less than ideal situation. While there's fish to catch in the sea and in the lakes inside the island, and wild animals to catch everywhere, the night will bring out predators, and you want to be ready to protect yourselves.]

[[Survival event! Go wild, literally this time. || ¡EN ESPAÑOL! ¡Evento Survival! Go wild, literalmente esta vez.]]

[The end of the year is fast approaching, and Rainbow Bridge knows it. You'll start noticing shops and buildings putting up holiday decorations, themed music playing now and then, and cafes and restaurants offering themed treats for the season.

More importantly, there'll be a big party, and everyone's invited! Over at Tourmaline City, there'll be a massive ballroom occupied for the celebration, fully decorated and filled with delicious food and drinks for everyone to share.

Of course, it's a magical invitation - you don't really have a choice. You'll show up at the ballroom, now dressed prettily for the occasion, and won't be able to leave the building until you've spent at least a good while mingling with others.



And to help socialize with other guests, you'll find a familiar plant hanging around here and there, showing up uninvited when you least expect it. Mistletoe is back to stick people together underneath it, making the people trapped kiss, hug, even slap each other and all sorts of other things.

If you find it to be too obnoxious, well, that's what the abundance of drinks are there for!]

[[Holiday party with mistletoe! Dress up those barbies and shove them together. || EN ESPAÑOL. ¡Celebración de las fiestas con muérdago! Vistan a sus barbies y pegotéenlas juntas.]]

[Tonight, you might've been already asleep, comfortable in your own bed (or coffin - we don't judge). Or maybe you were staying up late, busy with various things or simply hanging out for a while. Either way, you'll now find yourself asleep, in a bed. A bed that might not be your own. It might be an abandoned bed in one of the many empty hotel rooms, varying in comfort levels, or even in a room at the Crimson Keep, if you're unlucky enough.



And of course, you'll have company. People will pair up in beds across the world, to wake up next to friends and strangers alike. A perfect way to start up a conversation, wouldn't you say? Which you'll have to do, as the world's magic won't let either of you leave the bed until you've at least chatted for a while. It's all about interactions here, and you can't just leave your bed companion to be bored during the time spent with you. It's simple manners, okay. And to help things along, you might find that bowls with snacks appear, ready to be shared by the two people in the bed. It's like your own mini pijama party of two.]

[[Bed ninja event! Pair up and be as awkward or as flirty as you'd like. || EN ESPAÑOL. ¡Post de camas! Emparéjense y sean tan awkward o flirty como quieran.]]

[Today near Sunset Village you'll be able to see a new spot, a big table set up with a large colorful sign surrounded by glitter and paper stars. The sign reads:

Mokona's Magical Corner!
Ask about anything!

And what does that mean? Exactly what it sounds like. Sitting at the table you'll find Mokona, usually snacking on a thing or two, and if you sit with her you'll be able to ask Mokona about anything troubling your mind. Life advice! Entirely for free!

If you might not be the type to be curious and try to start a conversation, you might still find yourself sitting at the table despite it all, and unable to leave unless you get at least one piece of advice. This world has decided the magical part will be more literal.

Not only that! You might find yourself on the other side of the table as well, ready to give others your own advice. Mokona's very busy and needs assistants, afterall!]

[[What you see is what you get! Feel free to have your characters stuck as either advisors or troubled customers. Mokona can be found HERE.]]
