X/Pearl/MaXXXine


[info]owlbear
So I went to a friend's house last night to watch horror movies and since I'd never seen any of the movies in the X trilogy, we watched the first two.

The trailers really didn't do these movies justice. I thought they were going to be more gross, more shock value for the sake of shock value, more violent. All three were surprisingly restrained.

Strongly recommend giving them a shot. I can't really go into why without spoilers, so the first movie X isn't as violent or awful as a lot of slasher films and really is more about set up and some creepy pasta elements with the casting.

The second movie is not what I expected at all and more inspired by Wizard of Oz/old Hollywood vibes. It's the least violent and most psychological of the movies.

The third movie was also enjoyable and used a seedy 80s LA setting to set the mood. Its was the most vibes based movie but since I enjoyed the vibes it worked for me.

I'm sad there are no icons of Mia Goth from MaXXXine but also idk where I'd use such an icon set since I'm not sure she's a character that would really work in an RP game. It'd have to be a pretty different or horror focused game.

As Aaron Burr says in 'Hamilton', "Okay, so we're doin' this."

I mentioned a not-so-secret project I was working on- I'm starting a game! I wasn't sure when I was going to start posting, but enough people know now and are sharing that I figured I'd go ahead and post here, too. So if you're looking for somewhere with a little slice of life, a little adventure, and hopefully a lot of collaboration, take a look- I'm opening holds on November 14th, and if you have any questions, let me know.

EASTHAVEN RPG
mod
Welcome to Easthaven, what seems like any other small Midwestern town. The people are friendly, here's more than one stoplight, a central town square, several local businesses, and things might seem a little outdate, but otherwise perfectly normal.

Stay a little while, and you might realize that things aren't quite what they seem. There's a mystery stemming from The Library, and characters can find themselves traveling into other worlds- some you might recognize, others entirely foreign. Will you take a chance and explore? Or stick close to town and see what happens there?

Easthaven is an upcoming panfandom, multi-genre game set in a fictional town. Characters may be pulled from almost any canon. We encourage diversity in play, and hope to create a safe and enjoyable space for us to enjoy writing. My goal is to encourage collaboration in writing and the development of plot, world, and characters.

Holds Open Friday, 14 November
Game opens Friday, 29 November
EDIT- I FORGOT! I have a discord server in case anybody wants to chat pre-game!

I needed something easy to code because I've been working on a not-really secret project for the last week or so. More info about that will be shared soon, but for now, I just wanted to do something pretty for my DTE cast list!

  2. To request a reward, comment below with what you would like to request.

  3. Once approved, the mod will check off in Section #2 that the point has been redeemed.

  4. Occasionally, there may be a chance for an extra reward point through Meta Challenges. These are extra little plot or activity challenges that are entirely optional. If this point is earned, this will be checked off in Section #3, and there is a column to denote that if it has been redeemed

  5. The mod will notate your reward on the spreadsheet and check off points as they are redeemed.

  • Will my points roll over? Yes, points can be used after the month in which they are earned as long as the activity is linked in the spreadsheet.


Rewards Redemption

  • Is this your first request? Create a comment header with your (player) name. All character rewards will go underneath that header. This will help everyone keep track of what rewards have been requested.

  • Fill out the form below and comment under your player name header.

  • You may wish to note your requested reward in the subject line of your request to keep track of what you've requested previously.

  • Rewards should be approved in 48-72 hours. But the mod is only human- if there is a delay, please reach out so we don't delay your plot plans!

Housing & Jobs


[info]easthaven

Where will I live?

On The Spreadsheet, there is a tab for Euclid Apartments.
  • On arrival, characters will be assigned to an apartment of their own. These may be a Studio Apartment, 1 Bedroom Apartment or a Two Bedroom Apartment. Linked images do not have to be the exact layout, but give an idea of what the rooms contain.

  • There are two doors for residents to enter and exit the building; the main entrance opens to a lobby and the office where staff on duty can be found if assistance is required. Stairwells and elevators are located near each entrance.

  • Multiple washer and dryers are available in the basement for residents to do their laundry.

  • There are two communal living spaces on the second floor, along with a community kitchen. A community kitchen/living space is available on the first floor, with a lobby located near the main entrance.
What about work?
  • Does my character have to work? Not really. Basic necessities are provided, but most people want to be able to choose things a little nicer than what the community closet and pantry provide.

  • What can I do? Anything you like! Work may be available at any known setting in town, or perhaps you collect odd jobs while traveling throughout different worlds. Cash/credit is always currency, but sometimes people may choose to barter for goods or services instead.

  • Where do I find information about jobs? A listing of current jobs can be found on The Spreadsheet.

009 - Halloween Questions Eddition


[info]purplearrows
1. Halloween party people, I should have asked this before - but pets y/n? Or should we do something with them earlier in the day? Or the day before? I mean, pets with costumes have a parade with them or something? EDIT OCT 28: Pet Parade. October 30th. Will go through both neighbourhoods, so pets who are more comfortable being in their yards/homes can safely watch from there. We can also take a look at everyone's Halloween decorations.

2. Sue, Reed, does Franklin have any food restrictions? Is it okay to get him candy?

3. Not a question, just a "fact" I found on the internet, apparently putting a cinnamon-scented candle in your jack-o-lantern makes it smell like apple pie pumpkin pie. Sorry! Got my pies confused. Already thinking about Thanksgiving, I guess.
