winter wrap-up!


It's that time of year, Paradisa! Time for winter to pack up and go home until next year. Usually the castle does this with a wave of the proverbial hand and some fancy handy-dandy magic, but guess what?

This year, it's your turn to fix things up!

That's right, it's time for Winter Wrap-Up, as seen in song form here. It is basically an event where everyponyone works together in order to welcome spring and have the seasons change accordingly. But here's the tricky part: You cannot use any magic or special powers to help clean up! It must all be done by hand the Earth pony way.

Every person in the castle will wake up on the morning of March 9th with the following items:

➢ A letterman-style black and white jacket with a stylized "P" on the back. It's very warm and comfortable!
➢ A matching scarf.
➢ A note from the castle that tells them which task group they have been assigned to, and letting them know that they must complete their task without the aid of magic. And a reminder that if their task isn't completed by the end of the day, then spring will not be coming.


GROUPS! )

If you do not see your character's name on that list and want to participate, please let me know and I'll stick them in a random group! ♥ If two of your characters ended up in the same group and you want them moved let me know so I can switch one of them to a different group.

If the tasks have been completed by the end of the day, Paradisa will wake up to a perfectly beautiful spring day on the 10th. ♥

FAQ:

What if I don't want to participate?
There is nothing stopping you from sitting this one out, don't worry! If you want to sit it out, there are still plenty of characters per team to make sure things get done. :) If your character would ICly help out but you don't want to play, feel free to have them accidentally sleep all day or something like that! It's a one day plot, so you won't miss much.


What if my character tries to use their powers anyways?
Either it just won't work or it might even set the task back a little bit, or get snow dumped on them or something. Up to you! Powers will still be available, in the event that they may need to defend themselves or whatever. But if you try to, say, use super strength to move all of the snow at once, that would be considered cheating. Exceptions will be made for magic that is used to make it possible to even attempt the task (see info about cloud moving task below).


But how are they going to get these tasks done when there's no equipment?
Characters can still wish for tools to help with their task, like shovels, plows, etc. They can also summon (if that's within their personal capabilities) or wish for things that might make their task possible.


My character is stuck with the cloud moving group, but they can't fly! What do I do?
Luna, who is heading the cloud moving task, will be able to perform a spell on the people on her team which will give them temporary butterfly-esque wings, and the ability to walk on/touch clouds.


My character wouldn't ICly participate in this, but I still want to play anyways. What do I do?
The castle could infect them with a feeling of team spirit and stuff and for some reason they're compelled to help out, if you want. But the threat of having winter forever might be enough to motivate some. ;)


What about characters that have moved into town?
It's up to you how you want to deal with that! Either they can just be transported back to their room and wake up there, OR they could just hear about it from the townspeople/journal and come back to the castle to get their stuff.


What if my character can't see/read the note/etc.?
It'll be conveyed to them similar to how the journal works, it'll just be read aloud so they can hear it.


Any and all other questions, comments, concerns, and plotting goes here! Have fun, guys!!

yo what up homeslices laura here.

jet is going on a loss where the castle is going to punt him into different places around the castle for a while. this will last a few days and i'm hoping it will generate some sweet, random cr.

so he's walking to the kitchen and then suddenly he's on the roof. he's chilling in the lobby then suddenly he's in your bathtub. he's settling down for a nap then suddenly he's at the top of the satis tower. he's soaking up sun in the sunshine room and then suddenly he's on your carpet. you get the idea.

if you'd ever like him to crash what would have been a private thread/log, haha, just say the word and it will happen, but i will never do it without permission, of course. ♥

starting in a few minutes. peace. o/

Well kinda sorta-ish. Hey guys it's Knight! Bringing in my fourth character for now, Finnick Odair of The Hunger Games. He's from the books and is also further along than anyone presently in the cast as a fair warning to you all. I'll make sure to put his posts and such up in cuts for a while to make sure people aren't spoiled on accident. He's from the end of Mockingjay, well when that story ends for him at least, to give you guys an idea.

Not spoilery information is Finnick is a handsome young man from District 4, and a victor of the Games himself.

ALSO below the following cut is all the spoilery stuff for here so read at your own risk!

If you guys want to talk to me at any time my aim is zaftswordfish or grab me on plurk at [plurk.com profile] atlantisknight

Annnd coming to you with the next-to-last of the Hunger Games crew from Panem, this is Ang with Gale Hawthorne here! He's a surly hunter with a lot of issues, mostly because the girl he never told he loved ran off and fell in fake love with some bread-baking wuss, and as far as he knows now, she doesn't love either of them. Yay. He's also got a LOT of ragechips on his shoulders about the government and all their crazy control issues.... so that'll be fun for you all.

His loss is that he's now afflicted with color blindness, and his canon point is right before That One Bit At the End of Catching Fire That Makes People Instantly Pick Up Mockingjay.

I will be introducing him tomorrow, to take advantage of a castle feature that'll cause him even more lovely trauma, because this canon practically requires that I not treat him nicely.

Hey guys! Eridan-mun here, bringing in another character. This is Nina, from Breath of Fire V: Dragon Quarter. It's kind've the black sheep of the series, so if any of you know it and hate it, I don't blame you. I kinda hate it too.

Cut )

Nina here has never had family, and for the most part friends either. She's been treated as an inanimate object for most of her life and is generally in very bad shape. She's malnourished, her body is filled with toxins and pollution her wings automatically filter into her and mentally she's kinda broken, so she's wary of strangers and new things. In fact, things that will specifically trigger her are scientists, doctors, medical supplies, clinics, soldiers, armored figures, monsters, robots and dragons. Especially dragons. Physical contact is also a definite no. If you try to touch her, she'll back away, and if you do touch her she'll completely freeze up and just pray to god you don't hurt her.

Having said that, she's a really nice and selfless person. If someone she doesn't like or is wary of is injured or something, she'll do her best to help them and overcome her social phobias to do so. She's only inclined to act if it's for the sake of others, otherwise she just runs away from things. one day i'll intro a character and not tl;dr i promise

Her loss is she can't remember what her two friends Ryu and Lin look like, no matter how hard she tries.

So...yeah, intro post coming soon!

... dun, dun, dunnnnn!

Turns out it wasn't a year the last time I was at Paradisa, it was two, dfsdfsdfsfklsjs... anyway, this is Ky, who recently brought Amaterasu to the game, bringing back this social butterfly, Cloud from his Kingdom Hearts canon. His first loss was his memories of Tifa, and additionally he'll be missing that huge sword of his.

Do you remember him? Because. he. will. remember. you! Well, only if you talked to him back then. April can't come fast enough! /o/

HELLO EVERYONE! This is Krissy with her third character, and he is from a book-to-movie series and not an animanga! LE GSAP GASP. His name is Lenny Kravitz Cinna and he is a stylist for Katniss in the Hunger Games! He focuses on fashion and manipulating people via said fashion, and he is a sweetheart once you get to know him. He also likes to cut to the chase rather quickly.

His loss is that he cannot dress Katniss, lest his hands warm unpleasantly and he potentially suffers from burns over time. He comes from the end of Part II of Catching Fire with quite the bloody face and probably a concussion, so he will need some medical attention rather immediately please and thank you. ;~;
