This is your main mod with a rename, in case you're not on my friends list and didn't notice I renamed. ♥

So, in the spirit of the season, I'm going to make a small retcon here.

In the main foyer/entrance hall of the castle, there is a big Christmas tree for the characters to put their presents under. The ceiling in the foyer is twelve feet high, so the tree is about ten feet tall; festooned in lights, ornaments and tinsel in white, gold and silver. The tree has been there since the beginning of Advent (December 3rd), and it seemingly appeared from nowhere.

The characters can feel free to have put their presents under it, and today, they can wander down there at will to get them.

Also, COMPLETELY OFFTOPIC, since I've noticed this coming up IC a few times.

The characters do not know that they can't die. No one will know that they're effectively immortal until... well, until someone dies. I set it up this way so that a character can kill off a hated enemy and then, two weeks later, they come frustratingly back to life. That way everyone realizes that, hey, we can't permanently die. (Or characters can die some other way, but that was the scenario I had in mind. :D)

...there was some other situation I wanted to address, too, but I've forgotten. It'll come to me.

That's all for now. I'm off to get caught up on things here. ♥ Hope you're all having a wonderful holiday.

edit [4:37 PM]; Terra brought up a good point about what happens when characters are dropped. So I'm going to mention it here and then go add it to the FAQ.

Characters who are dropped disappear from the world. Paradisa effectively kicked them out for whatever reason. Maybe their emotions and wishes and memories weren't very tasty. :x Characters who were close to the dropped character are free to notice their disappearance.

When a character is ejected from the world, they get back what Paradisa stole from them when they arrived. If the character is picked up again by another player, that player is free then to choose a different thing for the character to lose when they reenter the world, which decided to give the character a second chance.

So. That explains that.

Ah, thanks for pointing out the death thing. *thumbs up* And yay for the tree. :3

I meant to ask, what happens when characters get dropped? Do people notice that someone has just vanished?

...That's a good question. :D; I was thinking that we could act as if they were never picked up in the first place, because that's what I usually do with my RPs, but hm.

The characters vanishing from the world sounds like a good idea, actually. Paradisa can kick them out for whatever reason... and give them back what it took from them when they came there. And then if someone else picks the character up again, and they have a different loss... that would explain it.

Thanks for asking. ♥ ::probably should add that to the FAQ along with the death thing::

♥ Thanks for the answers! Then it would be okay for other characters to go "Hang on, what happened to so-and-so?" and then notice that something is different if they do show up again? Or would Paradisa just wipe everything to do with that character so they'd have a completely fresh start each time, including when it comes to interactions with other people? (Maybe for maximum getting-use/world fuel-out-of-that-person or something like that? XD)

Ah, just saw the edit. *bricked* XD That answers my first question. Thanks again! ♥

The character being picked up again would forget having ever been in Paradisa, but other characters who interacted with them would remember them having been there. ^^

Ah, okay. :3 *thumbs up* Thanks!

Paradisa: Your memories SUCK. * Spit out. *

Exactly. XD

Pretty!

And ack okay. I know I used it a few times because one of the baddie characters mentioned it and it seemed like the only way to prevent Sora from attempting to kill all the baddies he knows are here. *facepalm* Sorry!
