Nothing new flutters on the bulletin board, but there will be new reading material in the morning. The Schoolhouse imps have been out and about, scrawling on things with their chalk and red crayons on any and every surface.

SEES ME SPEAKS TO ME

TREES
DON'T RUN

RUN AWAY

SLENDER MAN GOBBLES KIDS

FINDS ME
OPERATOR



In many places, there's just an Operator symbol, or a stick man.

A really tall stick man with long wiggly fingers.

The sounds of waves crashing can be heard as darkness falls. The sea that surrounds the Tower is churning, but not violently so. If anything, the rhythm is a lulling sound, and during the night the residents of World's End will sleep soundly. By morning, the edge of the beach is lined with frothy, delicate bubbles of seafoam.

Tomorrow will be pleasant, with warm temperatures perfect for hunting. The foam starts to evaporate, or be reclaimed by the sea. But strangely, some of the bubbles escape and take flight. And as they float by, you may catch glimpses of people who were here before inside the bubbles. Or it could be the replaying of a moment that's long since gone. Try to capture them and they burst. They're beautiful because they're fragile and temporary, not in spite of it.

Temperatures fall during Friday night, hovering near freezing. But there are still bubbles come Saturday morning. They're scattered across the ground instead of floating and are decidedly more solid than the day before. They're made of plastic now, and they also have things inside them -- trinkets, toys, little pieces of candy or gum. Frivolous things. Fun things. Small luxuries.

You've all had so few of them lately, thanks to that big ol' meanie Yugash.

It starts sometime during the night. At first it's just a few taps against the roof but then it quickly turns into what sounds like a hailstorm...

This post is to give people an idea of where your characters are living and can generally be found.
 

( Comment with your character's name and where they're living to be added.Collapse )

Many have come to expect the Tower's arrival with the full moon, but curiously it remains naught but a towering speck on the far horizon, and your dreams seem to have been spared the usual onslaught.

Perhaps someone out there thinks you've had it rough with the bugs this week.

Sadly, they're here to stay, along with the occasional smattering of those Deathclaws. A new breed of nasty crustaceans have crawled up on the beach to join the lobstrousities, and according to your guidebooks' extensive research they're called Mirelurks (it should give you the basics and even a recipe for Mirelurk Cakes!) There's also the occasional roaming mutant bear to be found in the woods. (Check the  Bestiary for these permanent Fallout additions.)

BUT! There's a mysterious treat to find, if you can spot the quantum blue-lit glow spilling from an abandoned building at the southeast corner of the city. A vintage vending machine for bottled beverages has appeared, and will curiously restock itself weekly with bottles of Nuka-Cola, a highly addictive, caffeinated sodapop.

Happy Saturday! Remember, Activity Check is Monday, so make sure you have posted twice this month, and Dark Tower Dream submissions (Theme: Decay & Degradation) are due Wednesday!

Here are the gifts that the Gods will be giving out to characters.

- You will get to choose one gift for yourself, something your character might need/want/find value in. It can be most anything. If you're unsure, just ask a mod. This is in addition to the gift on the list below.
- The Gods will give you a gift, as seen on this list.
- **Anyone with direwolves or pets will be getting a collar like the ones from the movie UP. Yes, now your pet can talk. They will look like normal collars, however, so you won't be able to rip off the voice box.
- ***Rion and Dawn will each get one collar for ONE of their Pokemon to wear and use to talk, if they so choose.

( And we hope you like them.Collapse )

This month's dream theme is "Guilt and Regret". Do with that as you will. Send all dreams to the mod e-mail ahurfbydurf@gmail.com, if you would, no later than December 30th at 11:59pm. They will be posted January 1st-January 2nd.

-Include in the subject line if it's NSFW, if it is.
-Make sure you put the names to the characters the dreams belong to.
-Any length is fine.
-If you don't want to use the dream theme, that's fine.



If you have any questions concerning what the dreams are, any additional rules involved, etc., please see this post for details. If you're new to the game, you should read it, please.

Hey guys, this is Kal. With the holiday season coming up and people going on break, we'd like to just bring a little attention to the game. Because of the schedules of the mods, we've decided we're going to open up applications for a position on the mod team. Generally, we're just looking for someone who can handle light coding, looking at applications with us, helping us come up with events and plot, and so on and so forth.

Just fill out this form (it's short, promise), and comment here. All comments will be screened. The apps are open for two weeks for now and we'll keep them saved for future reference. On December 29th, apps will be officially closed and we'll make our decision.

<b>Name/LJ:</b> <b>Characters at TBF:</b> The names of you play (or have played) at TBF. <b>How long have you been at TBF?:</b> Self-explanatory. <b>What kind of games have you played in before?:</b> This is just to get a general idea of what games you've had experience playing in, and know what goes on. <b>Any mod experience?:</b> Whether you have it or not, we'll still be looking at your app. <b>Any ideas you have, or any suggestions you'd like to pitch to us?:</b> What sorts of things would you like to see at the game if you were mod? What would you like to do? What would you change? Go wild here, guys. We want to see your heart and creativity in this.


That's it! Thanks guys. You've all been awesome and we're so honored to have you all as players of this game.

This month's theme for dreams is "Embarrassment, Humiliation, and Mortification". You can choose to go with the theme or not, but all dreams must be in by October 28th. Because the first of the month falls on a Sunday, we're going to have the dreams happen October 31st as of right now.

Be sure to send all dreams with the 'Dark Tower Dreams' in the subject line (or something along those lines) to ahurfbydurf@gmail.com. PLEASE include the name of your character before the dream that belongs to them and tell me if it's NSFW. There's no rating for how extensive the dreams can be, so let your creativity flow!

Any questions, feel free to PM us or comment here!
