| So I redid her permissions to include a form on glamour, which in her canon is a form of mind control. Jessica is becoming extremely hungry in EV. So she's going to start biting people and erasing the memory. So who wants in? The characters are certainly able to notice the marks, though she's probably not always going to bite their necks. I also don't want her to get like hunted for this. So she's not going to pick humans that would do something extreme (not that humans can do much against her in the first place). Just post here and if anyone wants to post to her permissions, that'd be awesome. | |
|
| So I probably should have done this earlier, but December plus working in a restaurant full time tends to wear one out thanks to the holidays. Good for money, bad for energy and sanity. In case anyone missed it, Velma put up a Network Post about how Hank and her finally had the lab up and running. To make a long story short, Velma has kind of oversold the quality of the lab. So while the lab is positively immaculate, organized, and stocked with all the supplies they could gather... The supplies contain nothing particularly awesome. I'm assuming that they've converted one of the old hospital labs so while it has all the old machines there, most of them are beyond repair and pretty dingy. However, they'll have a sink to wash glassware and a drying rack. As well as cabinets to put said glassware and supplies. (I'm assuming? Unless a mod says otherwise that's what I'm going with.) Available tools: Basic glassware (test tubes, beakers, flasks, petri dishes, stirring rod, eye dropper, etc.) Whatever chemicals were left in the hospital, some known, most unknown. Microscopes Forceps, scapels, dentist tools, gauged needles/syringes, etc. Lamps, gurneys Broken x-ray machine Mods please correct me if I've assumed too much or there are other things available! I'm also curious as to whether or not some of the really technically skilled people on the island, if they worked together, could repair any of the machines there by using parts from the merchants/mall/kitchen/etc. if they worked together. TEAM NERD GO! Also, been toying with the idea of using exit tokens to trade for equipment that works or actually is repairable. I have no clue if this will work out, though. I want all your opinions, suggestions, and questions! Because I plot better via knocking noggins with other people. | |

| Hey everyone, and congratulations on surviving another night! Welcome to Day 21. It's a free day, so take this time to rest and recuperate for the following month. Things are getting chilly out, and the temperature's dropping enough to frost over the ground half the day. Careful if you end up seeing your breath though-- it might outline some of the local spooks hovering a little closer than you think. We'd like to apologize for not getting the merchant log up for the previous week, due to some modly complications! :( Nothing's happened, we just didn't get a chance to connect and lay any plans down. Long story short, though, please use this post to work out what your characters stopped by for, and we'll throw down a quick assumption of what they'd like to do! Just comment to our merchant sticky thread in this post with the following: Aaaand a quick update! For one, we updated the FAQ on what can happen to your characters when you hiatus, as well as adding the option on the hiatus/drop page to fill out. Lastly, many characters have been dropped and we never finished updating locations, so I'd like to reiterate our location head project, where we'd like to add a personal touch on the game and list on locations who tends to take charge of things in a specific sector of the complex, as well as who can commonly be found there. I'll start a new thread in this post for a fresh start, but feel free to re-stake your claims! As for the discussion we left open on the last day change, it's still open ground! We won't be deciding anything until all three mods get a chance to discuss it in depth and go over the options, and we're all pretty busy and heavily considering some helper mods. But a lot of you commented and brought up a ton of good points, and we'll do our best to incorporate everything in a clean manner! :) Thanks so much in advance, and please feel free to add your two cents if you haven't already! LASTLY LASTLY! There will be no mission for December, due to the holidays! Enjoy the free pass and remember to keep this in mind OOCly! Jamiemod, over and out! | |

| Okay! To keep this brief, I have a proposition for any interested parties!
Little Luke here is sort of trying to go behind the Professor's back (with Big Luke, at that) and attempt to communicate with the monsters of the island. Obviously, a thirteen year old brit who's best skill is parkouring up a damn mass of cables pouring tea isn't exactly combat savvy, so the pair are probably going to throw up a network post and try to enlist some bodyguards of some sort, to make sure they don't get mauled during the attempt. Anyone who wants to help with this (or also has can-talk-to-animals powers) are welcome to post here or at the eventual network post- I just wanna throw this up to give people forewarning. As far as I'm aware, the communication attempt is going to fail, so be aware of that.
As a side note, Luke is also going around and talking to people who are...less than stable in the noggin. Just forewarning, if you got a loony, he may end up trying to befriend you? He doesn't want the evil sociopaths to be alone either Luke what is your life.
ALSO DON'T TELL THE PROFESSAH!!!1!!111111! | |
|
| Okay, so I'm putting up the expeditiony thing Ariadne talked about. If people are still interested and didn't post to her first post about it, that's okay I'll be putting up a second after I put up this. SO THEY GUNNA GO EXPLORING. I'm all for getting stuck outside the gates. So I'll be setting up the log in three parts. Leaving, Exploring, and Night. They're probably going to get attacked, so we can totally npc in some beasties, etc. I'm really up for anything happening. I think it'd be some good cr. ANY QUESTIONS? Give me your ideas. Edit: comm post, the log | |
|
| This mission there will be no mooks. You'll be heading straight into the boss fight! .... Assuming you can reach them. The gates are malfunctioning (whether it's scripted to malfunction or not is for the Administration to know and the players to puzzle over) and that means that the players can enter and exit the compound 'freely'. And by 'freely', I mean whenever the gates aren't threatening to shut randomly.
Tonight, you'll be putting a stop to this crazy weather by defeating the playful creatures that have been happily annoying everyone. Don't be too mad at them, they just wanted your blood! (...) There's a little surprise at the end of this mission, so make sure you come in with an empty stomach. ;)
Short post today because this mod needs to run back to class.
EDIT: for clarification that I meant to add but neglected to because I have awful time management skills...
Anyone is free to attempt to fight and defeat the four boss monsters! There aren't any official 'teams' and you're free to join groups or attempt to fight them on your own (though please note that defeating them on your own is not possible this round). SORRY FOR THE CONFUSION EVERYONE. orz | |
|
| Okay, so Ariadne wants to lead an expedition out beyond the gates, because doing highly dangerous things is like commonplace for her. I'm not entirely sure if this needs mod approval, but really anyone that wants to do this would be awesome. I should probably see if there is some sort of map of the place. Also feel free to post here if your character is interested. This can totally get shot down, but at least if there's a head count, we can potentially do a side plot here or something? I don't know. I'm horrible at these things. | |
|
| Eike setting up a little party for ... getting one's drink on, foods, and mingling. He wants people to feel less lonely and a little more at home in this place filled with monsters. Not to mention congratulate people on surviving the storm, surviving missions, and generally just surviving. He believes in everyone and wants them to believe in themselves as well...
Also, I-Pin helped him decorate. Isn't she sweet?
Blah, blah, blah.
There shall be a party, and I shall put it up on the logs. Just alerting, so does anyone have any questions?
PARTY IS ON DAY 20TH. | |

| Hey guys! Jamie here with the mission three plot post, and a bit more info beside it. Things will be a liiiiiittle different this time around, so bear with me and be sure to read through for the differences!
The sun will set on a dark red sky, and the text will go out as per usual. If you're new to the island, watch other characters (ICly) and see how they react! It's the start of another mission and they know it. Get the safehouses ready and follow the walki-- wait, where are the walking fish? Something's wrong, already. Instead of the usual fish that walk around the complex and out the gates leading into the forest, the gates open onto a trail of jack o' lanterns leading you through the forest to the lair.
The two-headed hyena guardian is gone, and the lair itself is well-lit; an improvement over the last mission. (All our teasing, and Kuu really did incorporate hello kitty into the mission. See what happens when you take us seriously?) Find the key to get through the first door, and-- oh. It's caved in. There's gouging in the walls and floor, and it seems that beast you hear outside is what managed to break free.
And that beast is also the cause for the spirits to go violent and desperate. Play this week's mission to find out why!
The mission this month is clear: track down the beast and defeat it, and let the spirits... you know. Rest in pieces or something like that. Hopefully they'll stop possessing everyone and your grandmother! | |

| SO HEY this is Vivi, aka Giles-mun, and I thought I should get in touch with all of you since Giles is trying to put this thing together! He has a lot of thoughts, and I have a lot of thoughts, and I wanted your input. :) 1. I really do want this to be an effective force, which is challenging to do in RP. I was thinking there would be a sort of dispatch system, where people call in with protection requests. Given the size of the island, the potential response time could be as little as a few minutes, especially if members are assigned to a specific area for a specific shift. Members can work in partners or alone as they desire. 2. There will be the main leader without combat ability that handles administrative details, a 2IC with combat ability that enforces the self-governing rules, and a leader of a small information-gathering non-combatant subunit. Although Giles does intend to put himself forward for the first position, if he gets outvoted I'm totally cool with that! I'd like it if he at least headed the info-gathering subunit, but whatever happens ICly is cool. :) In light of that-- DOES ANYONE ALREADY KNOW THAT THEIR CHARACTER WOULD VOLUNTEER AS A CANDIDATE FOR ONE OF THESE LEADERSHIP POSITIONS? LET ME KNOW. We seriously need all three. Giles is only one guy, okay! 3. There will be an open log going up probably next week for everyone to gather in real time and discuss the whole thing. It will take place in the newly cleaned up library, and Giles will make a network post inviting everyone. Official sign ups will go up shortly after the IC meeting log, along with a formalized set of rules for the group and a membership roster and duty schedule. 4. If anyone has characters that would sabotage this after it gets its feet off the ground, I'm completely open to that. :) 5. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO CALL THIS THING aside from the generic "defense force". Anyone have any suggestions???? 6. Feel free to post here if you know your character will join and plot out potential CR with other people! Characters can always work alone if they'd like, but there will probably be mandatory training sessions to start so that everyone knows each other and can work together effectively. This is prime breeding ground for new CR~ In total we need: leaders, administrative/organizational people, combat-proficient force members, information gathering type detectives, and doctors/healers for this to be a truly effective group. P.S. If you don't have me added on plurk already and would like to, here I am! o/ THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR PUTTING UP WITH ALL MY AND GILES' TL;DR. ;3; | |

| What's Halloween without a Halloween party?! Bro is planning on ironically throwing one, and it'll take place in the cafeteria on October 31st. It'll start sometime around 8PM and last till whenever the hell anyone wants. No rules. Fuck the police. I'll make an open log for it around that date.
He'll be inviting the entire island by way of (EDIT:) making an IC post about it sometime later this week. The message will be short and to-the-point, mentioning the date, location, time, and the fact that there'll be booze and music (whatever they could find at the stores/mall, at least) and general partying. Costumes aren't required but encouraged. Feel free to have your character react to the invite, or ignore it, or whatever they'd do.
ALSO since I figured other characters might be organizing a party or something as well, maybe they could all work together as organizers?? Whatever's cool, this post can be a plotting thing.
TL;DR Halloween party, cafeteria, alcohol and mingling, everyone's invited.
DISCUSS AWAY | |

| I'm not sure if this is okay to do or not, but I wanted to post this here to get an idea of two things: The first if something like this would be okay for the mods and the players, and the second if anyone would be interested in playing it out :) Basically Sephiroth's wanting to make a flashy entry after his video post. The conversations he's had with a few people so far are definitely pushing him that way, but I wanted to get permission first since Sephiroth's idea of a 'flashy entrance' would be him probably starting a bit of a fire to get people's attention specifically to see if the higherups of kernos will come out to playand maybe Cloud's as well.
Also, if the burning thing/plot is alright, is there a specific area that you'd like it to be done? | |
|
| Ok, so I just want to say this event for day 14 is glorious for someone that's playing Hazama, and this mun wants to take advantage of it. Although for the ideas to work, I want to see if anyone is actually interested. For those who don't know about Hazama, he is actually a ghost in his canon and uses an artificial body to move around with the living. He is capable of leaving it and go ghost form at will. Basically, I plan to make an entry sometime after Tuesday (Because I have a midterm on Tues to deal with right now) where Hazama plays ghosts and basically takes advantage of the current situation to harass people. He particularly wants your memories and that's kind of where I want to see if there's enough interest. Hazama has the ability to read your head with his Ouroburos just from contact. Your character is forced see them again as well, while he's reading them too. All the information on his abilities is located on his permission post if you need more details. Even if you guys don't want to be mind shock, Hazama can bother you in other ghostly ways, like attempt to possess you. I can also hit up on people's entry if they've already made a post about this. Whatever we wanna do, cause I want to have some fun with this. :3 UPDATE: Since the ghosts are still here to stay, Hazama will be haunting people on Day 15 as well, but ONLY during the daytime this time. He's going to be coming home to find some ghost has decided to intrude in his body and will have to deal with that and will remain in his body afterwards. I will be happy to hit any entries you guys have made instead of using the log too. Just let me know where and what I can do. | |

| SUP EXITVOID. So, I told myself that this app cycle, once new people started showing up on the island again, Izaya would finally throw together a quick 'Beginner's Guide to the Island' on a word document and throw it up anonymously on the forums.
SO, I'll be doing that sometime soon. I just wanted to let you guys know! If you have any information you would like him to add, go ahead and post it here!
ALSO, the post will be open to additions by the players and updated with them regularly! This isn't meant to be a temporary sort of post, but a guide that can be linked to knew players once you get tired of explaining things to them. So in the comments, feel free to have your characters leave silly little things, and 'anon' will update the guide with them. Hopefully these additions can be added all throughout the game, even months from now.
I HOPE THIS MAKES SENSE. So anyway, soon he'll be posting the very basics of the island, and then he'll invite other players to post their own tips, tricks, and warnings and update! :3 SO GO GET HIM. :D
And post here if you have any questions!
OH AND HI NEW PEOPLE I'M MIKEY AND I LOVE YOU ALL ALREADY! :D | |
|
| Hey guys. So I'm finally back from Italy and I have an all fixed up computer, no sign of writer's block and an excessive stream of creativity needing an outlet. In short I am back (Though I don't blame you if you don't even remember I was here) This means Hardison  not_plan_m and The Doctor daligulvstrand are BACK I'm excited to plot with everyone and play again finally. Also extremely excited by the new roomies Hardison and The Doctor have. So Spike and Akabane, If you're still here, please do come poke me. For that matter, anyone wanting to plot PLEASE come pester me. Here, their journals, messages, my AIM ( idealistictruths ). Anything. I'm dying to dive straight back into this game headfirst. There is literally nothing left to distract me. Glad to be back. So Glad. | |

| Hello! Sorry for being late but I meant to make OOC note of this. Misa committed suicide on the night of Day 9 following Light's death by wandering into the forest to tempt monsters. She regenerated a couple hours later in the shrine, went back to her dorm room and hasn't come out since. She's in a sort of weird place right now, emotionally speaking, but is still around. | |
|
| So, I wanted to see if the castmates for either character would mind if I had Izaya go out and film the bodies and post it on the network? It's definitely something he would do, just to be an asshole, but I didn't want to ruin any other plots that the castmates may be planning.
SO WOULD EVERYONE BE OKAY WITH THIS? Please let me know! ;w;
I'm going to say that since daylight finally came, he was definitely out about the island and saw the bodies, and so I would just have him turn on his camera and film them, just to get it out on the network since he hadn't seen anything on it before...but I wanted to check! | |
|
| So now that we've got the room assignments posted here, I thought it might be neat to get some roomie-related plotting going between players and plan out some shenanigans. This isn't limited to plotting just between characters that share a room -- if your character hangs around the dorms at all and you want to have them run into others, feel free to post. Just fill out the textbox below (that I blatantly stole/adapted from the CR meme, ssh) and let's get started. Get to know the dudes your dudes are staying with! Plan awesome floor parties! GO NUTS. | |

| In the tentacle snot-monster plot from last week, Near and Sai found one of the entrances to the underground tunnel where the monsters are hiding (and when I say Near and Sai found it, I really mean Sai found it and Near just watched from his phone and barked orders from a distance -_-;). They have good reason to believe that it will take more than just one set of hands to handle whatever's down there, so Blithe and I were thinking about making a video post that reveals the location of the monsters' nest on the network and asking if anyone would like to help destroy it in order to prevent these guys from attacking again (basically: get to them before they get to us). I think there might be a few other characters that have found the location during last week's event too, but I'm not sure who. So if you guys are out there and wanna like ... all get together and collaborate on something, that'd be awesome. :D Also, I believe Light-mun is going to post soon asking for those interested in looking for the hideout and going after the monsters, so that could potentially be a good place to ICly organize teams and get information from each other and somesuch. But the main question is: How many of us are actually interested in doing a raid on the monsters' nest? It will probably be an open log if enough ppl are interested (not sure when, maybe morning of day 4, but it'll definitely be during the daytime). The raid will clearly fail since the monsters are so much stronger than our chars (but they don't know that!), so it might get messy. I'd love to hear thoughts though! Good idea? Retarded idea? Suggestions? Concerns? Discuss? :3 (plot is pre-approved by our lovely lovely mods) | |
