— PLOT & CR WITH ME —

Welcome to Empatheias' plotting and CR meme! Please fill out the form below with all of the necessary information. Then go forth and reply to others, plot, make friends, have shenanigans!

The Plot and CR meme will be posted monthly alongside the taskboard and mod announcement on the first of each month. We highly encourage everyone to check the post from time to time, even if a week has passed. You never know what kind of opportunities you could be missing!

Feel free to use this post for plotting out current happenings in the game.

INSTRUCTIONS

• Feel free to use the "Open Mingling Announcements" and "Task Board Recruitment" top levels for better focused organisation. Note: Any large scale group plots should still be posted to the OOC community proper.

• For more general plotting and to talk about CR you wish to build, create your own top level following the format below. Put your character's name in the subject line, or your name in the subject line if you have more than one character.

• Fill out the form and comment away! The top level relating to the task board has a different form, catered specifically to task board related things, as well.

• Tip! If mentioning tasks, include both the task ID and a brief two-word blurb to easily identify (eg., ST0602 Giant Fish).

• Here is the link to the Task Board for easy access!

FORM

SUBJECT LINE: CHARACTER NAME

Your Name: 
Preferred Contact:

Character Name:
Canon:
Brief Personality: (this doesn't have to be long, list some of the more interesting character personality traits that set them apart from the crowd!)
Appearance: (Is there anything striking about their appearance? Strange limbs, features or other such things that would stick out? Even fashion choice! Please don't use images here, though you can link to them in your description)

Slice of Life or ADVENTURE: (Empatheias is a good mix of both, and it's not always an either or thing. What kinds of thing are you interested in doing with this character? Are they the type to be happy developing a life in Empatheias or has the wanderlust set in? Are they more likely to be involved in the overarching plot and exploration? Do they want to go exploring?)
Current Activities/Developments: (What's your character going through right now? What's gone on in recent past? What are they doing in their day to day life? Are they looking for a job or are they currently in the middle of planning an expedition? A link to a recent post or a top-level can also go here!)
Endgame Goals/Plans: (With the game ending in August, where are you wanting to take your character going forward? This could still be serious character development or general slice of life developments, but can also be used as a wishlist for things you're wanting to accomplish with them before August 31st. Are they going to pack up and become a nomadic wanderer and explore the world or maybe you want to get them more involved in the plot as endgame progresses. Talk about the kind of emotions you want your character to work through as well! Good or bad, or if they're focusing on Dunamis. All future plans go here!)
Shipping/Romance: (let's face it, ship happens. in a general sense are your characters interested in romance? something permanent, or a fling or two maybe? Even unrequited love is something that can be fun to play out!)

Seeking: (What kind of CR are you looking for? For anything related to the task board, see the Task Board Recruitment top level.)
Offering: (What kind of CR can you offer? Is your character the doting uncle type, or are they the kind of character who will bring trouble to anybody nearby? Or could they possibly be the best friend of everyone ever?)
Not Interested In/Avoiding: (If there's anything you're looking to avoid, list it here! Negative CR, violence, anything too slice of life, etc. the more information you give, the better!)

Anything Else: (gifs are fine too.)

Post away and have fun!

— TEST DRIVE: APRIL —

Welcome to

empatheias' test drive meme. This test drive is to help interested players test their characters in the game's environment. We've included a few prompts that incorporate specific elements of the game, though you'll find all of them have a lot of leeway for players to get as creative as necessary. Before diving in, here are a few things we'd like to remind everyone about the game in general:

Thread carry overs. All threads can be carried over in some way upon officially entering the game. Although the prompts are centered around the Flower Festival, threads can be tweaked to be more generic to fit the current timeline if a character comes in after the festival has passed.
Application reminders. Reserves and Applications (Canon | OC) are always open!
Emotions are key! Empatheias's premise focuses on how anyone's emotions can affect their environment, be it big or small. While not every emotion will cause a reaction, significant ones definitely will. How much effect a character will have will ultimately be up to you, the player. While we're giving a lot of leeway for the test drive, keep in mind that there will be some limits in the actual game.
Everyone has an amulet. All characters have a unique amulet that is specialized for them to collect their emotions and serves as the network device. Remember, communication is telepathic, but it works basically the same as most other network devices.
First or third person allowed. Your threads can be in either first or third, but we'd advise being flexible about it. If you have a preference, be sure to specify. Remember, these threads can also be used in your application for samples! Reminder: We only require one sample and it can be done in either format.
For your threads, put the Character Name and the Canon in the subject line to help readily identify them. You're welcome to use more than one prompt for respondents to choose from. If you have any questions or want to brush up on the game information, refer to the Game Information entry. Otherwise, tag around and have fun!

Slice of Life or ADVENTURE: (Empatheias is a good mix of both (especially this month), and it's not always an either or thing. What kinds of things are you interested in doing with this character? Are they the type to be happy focusing on slice of life stuff and just interacting with people this month? Or are they more likely to be involved in the overarching plot and exploration side of the event? Do they want to go exploring?)
Current Activities/Developments: (What's your character going through right now? What's gone on in recent past? What are they doing in their day to day life? Are they looking for a job or are they currently in the middle of planning an expedition? A link to a recent post or a top-level can also go here!)
Fourth Wall Plans: Any plans you have for fourth wall.

— TEST DRIVE: JANUARY —

Welcome to

Pre-Intro Log. For the Test Drive, we are using parts of it as a "pre- intro log," which means not only can players go ahead and use the prompts as if the character is arriving into the game for the first time, but this setting will be adapted and continue in the official Intro Log. For TDM purposes the prompts are a little more generic and vague than what will be on the actual Intro Log, but they're relatable enough that can be easily transferred to the official log with a few minor tweaks. For those who do end up applying and entering into Emp, these threads are considered "forward dated" to the Intro Log.
Date reminders. Reserves open December 25th and Applications (Canon | OC) open a week later on January 1st. Apps will only be open for four days! Because we're on a bi-monthly schedule, the next app cycle after this is MARCH.
Emotions are key! Empatheias's premise focuses on how anyone's emotions can affect their environment, be it big or small. While not every emotion will cause a reaction, significant ones definitely will. How much effect a character will have will ultimately be up to you, the player. While we're giving a lot of leeway for the test drive, keep in mind that there will be some limits in the actual game.

— TEST DRIVE: NOVEMBER —

Welcome to

Threads can carry over into the game. The setting of this TDM will be adapted and continue into the official Intro Log after apps, so players who intend to app into the game can take advantage and use the TDM as a "pre-intro log" to get the "first arrival" scenarios out of the way. This means those participating in the TDM can have both "this the character's first day" scenes as well as scenes assuming the character has been in the game for a little bit; whichever works best. Just keep in mind that TDM threads may need to be tweaked to fit proper continuity once in game, but at least you can keep the CR and most of what happens.

Important: Although not explicit in the prompts, TDM participants can play it as if their character was dropped into the current setting: the deserts of Shaarnath (information on the city can be read here for those interested). Current players can just conveniently have their own character already nearby, or could have been informed of lost new arrivals and went out to help.
Date reminders. Reserves open October 25th and Applications (Canon | OC) open a week later on November 1st. Apps will only be open for four days! Because we're on a bi-monthly schedule, the next app cycle after this is January.
Emotions are key! Empatheias's premise focuses on how anyone's emotions can affect their environment, be it big or small.
