Hey guys, Laena here! Sorry for suddenly disappearing this past week. My husband came down with a bad cold and I caught it while trying to be the cute waifu nurse :| I was unable to post up the past moon cycle, but it works out since I had nothing really extensive planned for it except for it being a break period. Only downside was that I had planned to make an NPC post for characters to interact with but...yeah there was no way I’d be able to keep up with it. Apologies for that!
That said, I’m making up for this by going ahead and giving you guys the details for the upcoming AU so you can plot away. As you may recall, it’s going to be based off the RPG Fire Emblem: Awakening but there are some other RPG game elements being thrown in from the Tales of series. It’s mostly Fire Emblem, however, but enough about that that, time for the details!
dates and formattingStart: Tuesday, April 22
End: Saturday, May 3
That gives us
twelve (12) days for this event, which should more than enough time to enjoy it! Of course backdated posts/threads will be allowed after the event ends, but it’s highly encouraged that you at least start the activity during this timeframe.
Giant mingle log. To help make it more efficient, there will be a giant mingle log posted at the start that will span the
entire event time. You can make any log threads in this post, OR you can make your own, entirely up to you.
Please note, this is only for
logging—all network posts should go to
dreamnet and interactive dreams should be posted separately. Formatting guidelines will be provided in the post, but in the subject lines you’ll have to indicate whether the thread is "Open/Closed" and the "Date" to help keep some sense of a timeframe. You can forward date, backdate, current date—in other words, just because the latest thread is dated "4/24" it doesn’t mean that they have to stay in order. The next one can still be "4/22."
( alternate lives (or not) )( setting )( job/class sytem ) ( social relationships/affection rankings )( other things to note )the endAnd that’s it! It’s pretty robust and detailed, but it should hopefully give everyone a very good sense of how this AU will be like. If I had to give a bullet point summary of what you need to know, it would be this:
- Characters can be AU’ed
- It’s a traditional old fantasy-like setting
- There are jobs/classes
- RELATIONSHIP RANKS!!!!!
- HP/MP bars, status ailments, and leveling oh my
To put it even shorter, everyone is tossed into a traditional RPG game and interacting with someone a lot could eventually lead to marriage, have fun.
