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.

Rella Triean | OC

[unwillingdoll]

Hello! I’m bringing in an original character of mine named Rella Triean from a trilogy of writing tournaments set in the Underworld. Or, rather, a city within the Underworld called Nothing: a place for souls with no specific set of beliefs to live out their afterlife. One of Satan’s many illegitimate children begot from an affair with one of his human worshipers, Rella was born and raised in a world reminiscent to Earth, but where witchcraft is a common but outdated (and somewhat forgotten) practice. Her mother, wanting her daughter to stay young and doll-like forever, cursed her to immortal childhood when she was six years old. Much, much later, she’s managed to break that curse and become an adult, but realized that--whoops, she actually liked the perks of immortality. Namely, being perfect and beautiful and, well, not dying. She gets taken to Midnight when she visits her father in an attempt to regain her immortal status.

As much of her background may imply, Rella is not a particularly friendly person. Much like the Godling that rules over Midnight, she prefers to act the paragon of demure, ladylike politeness, but will switch to more harsh and forceful tactics as soon as she believes the front to be pointless. She won’t go out of her way to make friends unless she thinks that someone is worth something as a friend, but if someone insists on making her acquaintance she won’t typically refuse (so long as she can find some use for them). A perfectionist to an obsessive level, Rella bottles up her insecurities by trying to be flawless at all times, despite how unreasonable this may be and how much stress it causes her. As a result, any mistake she makes, however small, frustrates her--occasionally to the point of a rage. She’s also a huge tease. She uses her body to her advantage whenever she can, but avoids making actual commitments. Sometimes she’ll string along men for no reason other than to amuse herself.

Rella was snatched from her Universe about two months ago and has been living in Midnight ever since. As such, she’s still getting herself settled in, but likes to act as if she’s completely comfortable and familiar with her surroundings. It’s better than seeming lost or vulnerable. She hates puzzles, finding them tedious, and has never been a social butterfly in her life, but participates in the Murder Mystery Dinner Days as a way break up monotony and boredom. That, and as not to come off as some sort of shrew. Regardless of how antisocial she may be, she abhors the idea of being labeled as such by strangers.

Aside from having-been immortal, Rella has two superhuman abilities: telekinesis and hypnotic charm. She only generally uses her telekinesis when she’s in a troubling situation, but relies on her ability to charm others into agreeability frequently. If she’s unable to win someone over with her normal behavior, she’ll use that gentle persuasion to tip their favor toward her. Both of her powers rely on eye contact.
