Be careful what you wish for...

WISHES
How many have you made?

For years the castle has granted nearly every wish and whim that the residents can think of. Big or small, whatever one desires, the castle has spent its own energy on pulling it into Paradisa. When you think about just how many wishes residents make, it translates into a lot of spent energy on the castle's part.

Paradisa has decided that it does not want to meet the same fate Libet faced. It has never asked for payment... but it will now.

On July 14th, residents will find that their wishes will come with a price. What exactly is that price? That depends on the size of the wish.

• Hungry? Wish for a slice of cake, but you might feel a slight headache.
• Need a tool? Feel free to wish for it, but you might forget why needed it at all.
• Want a new bed? A grand piano? Enjoy the sudden lack of energy and oncoming dizzy spell.

Smaller wishes will come with smaller prices. However, the bigger the wish, the bigger the price, and the more impact it has on the person. They might feel physically drained or sick. They may find memories being taken in exchange, or the castle might take personal belongings that were acquired during their stay.

The castle might even demand payment for wishes that have already been granted.


To sum it up, if your character makes a wish on the 14th & 15th, the castle will be taking energy, memories, or belongings from its residents as payment for the wish.


Is there an opt-out?
If your character doesn't wish for anything, they're good! They won't feel any different than any other day.

My character is not the type to wish for things.
And now they probably never will when they see what is happening to everyone that relies on wishing.

My character has only ever wished for one item (big or small) a long time ago. Will Paradisa be demanding payment for this item?
It's up to you! Paradisa might remember that single wish they made and take something in return. But there are a lot of residents, and it could have forgotten about it by now...

But my character needs to wish for [VITAL ITEM REQUIRED TO LIVE/SURVIVE]! Is that going to cost, too?
ALL wishes are going to come at a price, no matter how big or small, and no matter how much they need it.

My character is wishing for/once wished for [ITEM OF X SIZE]. What will the price be?
Use your best judgment! If it's small, it won't cost much. If it's big, it will, etc. Don't cut your character any slack. If they wish for a dozen bears, they're not getting away with a slight headache. ;)

What about the castle ghosts? Can't I just ask them to do me a favor if I can't wish for something?
Paradisa gave the ghosts an all-expenses paid vacation to Hawaii, so they'll be out of service. You're on your own.


Have fun with this! If you have any other questions, feel free to ask them below.
