Event Plotting Post: The Walls of Jericho

[thelostmods]

Greetings, residents of the Meadous and vistors! Our 4th Wall event is right around the corner. To help facilitate this, we’ve pulled together some world descriptions and FAQs that should help anyone coming to visit the Meadous and surrounding godling lands get situated. For this event, We the Lost will be allowing:

• Straight from Canon Characters
  
• CRAU Characters
  
• CRAU or Straight from Canon Characters that have been AU’d into a Godling Realm

TL;DR - We the Lost is having a 4th Wall Event. It will take place ICly over a two-week period and open up seven additional godling realms to explore. Any and all characters are welcome for this event, be they straight from canon, CRAU, or CRAU’d into a godling realm.

THE WALLS OF JERICHO

The Events Calendar post for the plot is HERE

First and foremost, what is this event? We the Lost is a CRAU Slice of Life game set in the realm of a young godling. Every young godling in the WtL-verse develops a world unique to them and pulls people in to populate it and help them grow. Each godling is influenced by their ‘flock,’ although they all have some basic personality traits that help them make their initial flock selection. The characters in WtL have so far given their godling a name: Zephyr, and a form that changes with the seasons.

Godling worlds are small to start and they expand as the power of the godling expands. There is also a barrier placed around each world, something that separates the godlings’ pocket universes from one another and protects the population from the dangers that run rampant between the worlds. Once a god is mature enough, their barrier will come down. Until that happens, though, the wall is kept in place, holding the inhabitants in and the rest of the world out.

On January 30th, an event on the plane of the gods will shatter the barriers between worlds, breaking down the walls and exposing nearby godling realms to one another as well as the spaces between.

This event will have three effects:

1. There will be an unexpected and unmanageable ‘pull’ out in the multi-verse that will drag in characters straight from canon or from other games and drop them into unsuspecting godling lands.
   
2. Characters already within godling realms will be ‘flung’ across their own plane and may wind up in a different godling world than the one they started in.
   
3. Travel between worlds will be possible.

This effect will last for two weeks (until February 13th) when the god plane will sort itself out, the barriers will be restored, everyone from the godling worlds will be put back in the right place, and anyone brought straight from canon or another game will be returned ‘home.’

The godlings will be frantically trying to sort out the situation on the god plane with the older gods and will be largely unavailable. However, they may check in now and again. More information on each of the gods and their worlds is provided below. the worlds open during this event will include:

• The Meadous - Realm of Zephyr - Flock Qualities: Lost
  
• Ajras - Realm of an Unnamed Godling - Flock Qualities: Musical, Upbeat, Adventurous
  
• Midnight - Realm of an Unnamed Godling - Flock Qualities: Nocturnal, Dual Natures, Hidden Sides
  
• The Sunset Circus - Realm of an Unnamed Godling - Flock Qualities: Fearful, Young, Misfits
  
• Samudra - Realm of an Unnamed Godling - Flock Qualities: Unique, Flashy, Prideful, Confident
  
• The Wild West - Realm of Ara - Flock Qualities: Inventors, Healers, Builders
  
• Aria - Realm of Lalilia - Flock Qualities: Caregivers, Parents, Builders
  
• Willowhispers - Realm of Tyvn - Flock Qualities: Artists, Misanthropes, Tech Savvy

WtL DOES NOT have a network comm. To facilitate communication for this event, a universal ‘Bulletin Board’ will be put up where people in different realms will be able to communicate.

Gary Epps (the Games CRAU) | OC

[a_minute_younger]

Hello yes this is Gary, one of several characters I'm going to be dragging here from Elementverse; the simple world description is a modern semi-utopia and also there are superpowers, naturally there's more comprehensive worldbuilding info on Gary's journal is anyone's curious. This version of Gary is brought not only from a very early canonpoint where the protagonists are all just beginning to know one another, but also after he's spent a little under a year in the Games, a Hunger Games-based jamjar. During his time kidnapped in Panem, Gary won no tournaments, but he did make a name for himself as the Capitol's teenaage Tribute pop idol and managed to petition out of the Tribute program as a Panem citizen, where he then eagerly pursued his career as a performer (while the city and his friends were preparing for war around him). He'll have been brought to Ajras soon after he finally got comfortable in this new position and released his last album.

Gary hasn't been in Ajras very long--maybe three or four months--but he's used to being uprooted and finding ways to entertain himself and has adjusted accordingly. Thankfully his time in Panem has taught him how to channel his natural skepticism away from just denying weird aspects of his new environment, leading instead to a very persistent curiosity that this world takes advantage of readily. No electronics means Gary has little investment in his house, so he probably spends most of his time exploring, doing really stupid shit just to see if he can get away with it, and being really loud the whole time. His ability to control his own adrenaline was repressed in Panem but he would have wished for it back almost as soon as he realized he could, meaning that he's filled with apparently boundless energy and oblivious to any physical duress until he crashes very hard. He's certainly partaken in many expeditions, in planned groups and on his own, many times since he's arrived--and gotten into just as many tricky situations as a result. If someone hasn't put a leash on him yet, they should. Responsible adults to make sure Gary doesn't get too ahead of himself and other kids that he can make bad decisions with would all have some experience dealing with him at some point, along with everyone else, because Gary has a big set of lungs and zero chill and if he can't be heard belting the lyrics to something while puttering through the caves then he's probably getting into trouble somewhere.

[despiteeverything]

Aggressively chases after all the CR with you tbh

[a_minute_younger]

Action > *Flirt

[despiteeverything]

That's it that's exactly what happens.

[a_minute_younger]

I certainly wouldn't rule it out. Two ridiculous flirty children going adventuring and getting into trouble constantly is what I'm seeing here.

[belongsontv]

gaaarryyyyyyyy

How about some reunion of Milla and Gary? Cause I feel like that would be beautiful and heart breaking all in one. Milla will probably end up exploring various worlds and bump into him by accident.

[a_minute_younger]

yessssss absolutely! There will be many hugs waiting for disco mom. He will want to hear all about her Meadous adventures and maybe also play some of his Capitol albums for her so she can know what he did after she left. And then also sing over them. And also dance probably. It's not going to be a very quiet reunion.

[belongsontv]

Milla will be so proud. PROUDEST. her not!son is a star. They will both probably dance together, lbr. They're both loud excited people.

Meulin prime is going to be far more up for shenanigans and far less likely to call him on his bs.

And she's shipping him with someone. Someone. Some quadrant, regardless of his feelings really.

[a_minute_younger]

Man the whole concept of AU people he already knows is gonna weird Gary out something fierce to start out with--actually he's probably just going to assume that they happen to have the same name and there's no relationship? Which is technically true I guess? He'll get over it is what I'm saying. Definitely up for shenanigans.

Also definitely up for shipping. Gary loudly appreciates and acts on Meulin's ships that she sets up for him until someone actually reciprocates and makes him uncomfortable. All talk, no bite. A sad day for the shipping chart.

[meulin]

Same name and cat puns and tendency to ship. Sure Gary, not at all the same person. Shenanigans tho. Shenanigans in caverns. When he keeps getting himself in trouble, a moirail is going to be in his shipping charts.

Speaking of which, she's so thrilled and yet so disappointed. Gary, don't cut yourself off furom love!!

[a_minute_younger]

Totally not the same person. Okay so maybe there's still some denial there. get this boy a moirail Meulin this is your challenge

[meulin]

Her Everest.

[wizardplease]

So Haruto has found himself in a different world, but what with the walls having come down, I say a reunion is in order?

Oh man, he's gonna probably cry or something. It's going to be embarrassing.

GARY.

Albert will be around for this event and world hopping between godling realms quite a bit I think, so even though Gary and Albert didn't really interact I think it'd be cool for them to run into each other if you'd like! Albert would recognize him from his tragically short pop idol career.
