[April 28th] *POPS THE CHERRY*

[mischiefbreeder]

[Wake up in the morning feeling like. A. Hero. Go out on the town, don't be a zero.

That's the way Gold tends to live every day of his life. Still, when he woke up this morning he found things were not quite what they seemed. First of all, of course, Gold found himself already dressed instead of in his pajamas, decked out in this gear. No way he could've sleep-dressed himself in clothes he's never owned, right?

Things only got stranger, of course, once he stepped outside and saw the world before him. It was... Luceti, but it wasn't. It looked like someone took the place and gave it some crazy medieval-fantasy makeover overnight! Everything looked the same and yet totally different. Gold would like to think that everyone would notice the village changing under their feet and around them, but... Well, the Malnosso were pretty crafty when it came to these things.

This, of course, meant it was time to see what everyone else thinks of the matter! Journal time!]

[Video]

Hey... Tell me I'm not crazy here. There's somethin' funky goin' on in the village. Just check it out! [He made sure to have the video function on, panning it out to give a view of the village's new design, and, of course, his new getup.]

You see it all too, right?

video

[bravefighter]

[His is pretty nifty too! He adjusts the bag on his shoulder, before starting to look through it. Oh hey, look at that! He pulls out a whip.]

Wow, look at this, Gold!

[... is what he would say, if he could actually talk. Instead you just get him waving around the whip, Gold. Pretty weird, huh?]

[April 28th]

[falenandawn]

[Gold will find Frey sitting in the foyer, following the messages on the journal curiously to try and figure out what is going on.

He's dressed in that black and gold outfit he first arrived in, the leather and cloth it's own form of armor and, while decently comfortable, still very stand out in Luceti normally.

At least he wasn't alone in the sudden outfit change, and he nods in greeting when he enters the room.]

Good morning, Gold. Were you affected by whatever is going on, too?

[ action ]

[penstabby]

[ Mikado woke up the same way. But not the same YEAH I'M A HERO way that Gold has, but rather in a very irritated mood.

So he encounters Gold as he's prowling the town, and it feels like his mood gets worse. He stops walking. Ugh. How does he deal with this? ]

[chibifalenas]

[Lym woke up, she got dressed in her usual robes and picked up her training knife. Nothing too out of the ordinary given how things had been, but she felt the weight of coins on her belt.]

Brother? Uh.. Someone? Are they using potch here now?

[Thinking little of this she walked out, subconsciously smashing the three clay pots on the porch before blinking]

We... Have pots? Why did I break them? Huh....

[Starting for the river like normal a slime oozed out at her, letting out a scream and pointing her finger, lightning arced from it and incinerated the little thing, which vanished in a puff of maybe 2 gold coins.]

I... I used magic! I USED MAGIC! Wait. That was thunder.

[Lym looks frantically on the edge of panic]

I used thunder magic!?!

[Flailing]

[falenandawn]

....Potch? [When she walks towards him with such an odd question, his lips thin thoughtfully. Luceti never had a currency system, as far as he was aware, aside from that one time in which they had thought they had always lived here.

He himself is dressed in his uniform from home, having woken in it and not really felt like trying to remove it. The few times this had happened the outfits simply reappeared on their bodies, and he wasn't keen on trying today.]

What do you mean?

video

[bravefighter]

[Well see, it was kind of a weird day. He got up, saw all this stuff, and, well... he's waving the journal around for people to check out the new sights, and his new outfit. The funniest part about it? He's just kind of acting everything out. The normally talkative boy isn't speaking a single word, and is, instead, just checking everything out silently.

Like, look at this thing!

This random ass giant sword! That he's... trying to pick up, and mostly failing. Damn you low strength stat. You can probably hear him straining, but not more than that. Instead he pauses to reach into his bag... and pull a whip out, crack.

What even funnier is that it looks like he's trying to talk, and thinks he is actually talking, but instead, nothing is coming out. Maybe you should tell him that?]

[August 28th/Action]

[averybadfeeling]

[You may or may not notice one Obi-Wan Kenobi, Jedi Master, standing near the Battledome. He seems to be surveying his fellow Luceti denizens with a neutrally observant yet peaceful expression.

But if you're having difficulty mastering the abilities inherent to your class? Go ahead and come on up. Master Kenobi's tutorial dojo is now in session!

Better hurry up and catch him. Leave him for too long and he's liable to get hold of his senses.

PS: Fellow NPCs are more than welcome to say hello as well. Just be warned; the conversation might leave a little something to be desired.]

[August 28th/Action]

[thebellthatbinds]

[Sabriel is just passing by really...although she's had to side step a couple of odd creatures on her way to through the village. She's on her way to the Battledome for some sword practice when she comes across the Jedi. Wasn't that Adele's friend? Upon passing him she lifts a hand in greeting.]

Hello Ben.

[bloodybishie]

[Prince wakes up to a... vaguely familiar feeling. He's wearing armor again. It's not his normal armor, but still. Familiar. In truth, he probably would not have chosen black. Or spikes. But the plate mail gives him a flashback to his life as a warlord.

In fact, it's putting him in a sadistic fighty mood. So he'll just be wandering around, looking for people with a terrifying smile on his face.]

All the days!

[first_darkness]

[ April 28 - May 1 ]

[ In the far corner of Seventh Heaven, tucked away in a booth that's always a bit dark even in the day and never lit by candles even at night, sits an odd woman wearing a robe, with her hood pulled up and further obscuring her already hard-to-see face. There's something not quite right about her, even exempting the fact that she never seems to sleep, leave, or even have something to eat (what, you think NPCs need to take care of bodily functions?). Something about her is simply... a bit unsettling.

Should a non-NPC approach, she'll try to beckon them over. Her dialogue box name says "Mysterious Woman" until conversation refers to her as something else. ]

Excuse me. Could I have a moment? I seem to have misplaced a few of my things. You look like you might be able to help.

[ But beware, these quests are not for the low of level. And you'll get weapons, even if you don't follow the side quest through to completion. ]


[ May 2 ]

[ Starting on the last day, she won't be in her booth, which will be just as bright as the rest of the restaurant. If your party has successfully returned the three Dark Shards she's asked for (entirely handwavable!), she'll have told them there's one last shard to find, but the mountain passage won't be open until the 2nd.

Sure enough, on the 2nd, there's a relatively easy-to-locate road up the mountains which was previously blocked off. Following this road (and fighting off the hoards of high-level monsters along the way) leads to a cave which is suspiciously devoid of any enemies... or anything at all, really, except for the last Dark Shard sitting on a glowing white pedestal (as the others had been) at the back of a large cavern which couldn't scream "boss encounter" any louder if it tried. Hope you've saved. ]


[ Of course, nothing is stopping her from popping up for plot relevance from time to time in places that aren't Seventh Heaven or the cave, but that's an NPC convenience and she's also always findable back where she should be. ]

[4/28]

[yellowthirteen]

[A man who very obviously is not an NPC comes into the restaurant. Clad in worn, black leather armor with a matching duster coat with a heavy, magical-looking old rifle across his back, Thirteen only glances over to the hooded figure when she addresses him. He's got a feeling this person's trouble, but right now time was something he had.]

What sorta things, miss?

QUEST MONSTER (available for the whole event)

[biteoffherhead]

[Young adventurers, are you looking for a great Quest? Does this NPC Mysterious Street Peddler ever have the mission for you! He approaches you, fine young hero, and after basking in your strength, points in the direction of the forest.

"Go there, young warrior, and tame the mighty beast!"

The Peddler explains that ever since the homes for the sick and the beggars were made, the beast has made a habit of slaughtering innocent humans and cattle. What's worse, it is said to steal away babes in the night, right from their cradles! It is truly a monster that must be stopped!

Wait, wait! the Peddler insists, should you not be so interested in justice. It is no simple beast, he claims: its fur, bones, and teeth are all magical, and will grant great and powerful strength to those who can take it from the monster. Surely, greater strength from nature is something you would seek? After all, there's nothing like a little extra "bite" to your inventory.


Should you accept the Quest, there is a path to follow to confront the monster. Whether you go by yourself, or with a full Party, the path is short and safe from all other random encounters. At the end of the path stands the mighty Moro, a deep and ominous growl rolling from her throat. Take a moment to organize your inventory, check your equipment, make sure everyone's HP is full, and then step forward! Moro is readily prepared to do turn-based battle!]

((OOC: Moro will "revive" for every person/party doing this quest! So everyone feel free to tag her! She drops some fairly decently-leveled "rare" equipment.))

[All Days] Nezumi/Eve&Nagisa+You.

[asquiet]

[There are two girls. Well, one girl and a teenage boy dressed up as a girl, but he makes a pretty convincing girl. They seem to be calling out for help near some caravan, the kind acting troupes used to use. Are they a traveling troupe? Perhaps. Either way, they're shouting out for you, dressed in their very best.]

Someone! Please help!

[They really look like they could use some help. If any non-NPCs should decide to help, they will explain the quest.]

[April 29th] Awww yiss. Also expect lots of random threadjacking.

[mischiefbreeder]

[Alright, now that everything was settled for their party, they were together... It was time to do things. Adventuring! Fight things! Que--YOW THOSE ARE CUTE GIRLS. And they're calling right to him! It's only natural, since he's the true leader of the party, even if Masaomi is the so-called protagonist.

The girls need some help? Have no fear, Gold and his merry band is here!]

I'd be happy to help you ladies! What's the problem?

QUIRKY MINI-BOSS | EVIL TEAM | AVAILABLE

[daisy023]

[Daisy woke up realizing she wasn't feeling like a Chief Petty Officer nor a Spartan, but apparently as a Knight with a few loyal minions waiting for her to wake up and set herself in plate armor painted red-and-gold. She also happens to have a slight taste for evil, and an even more oversized sword than what she took from the Smithy.

She raises an armored hand to tell her monstruous minions to go bother some hapless hero. The Evil Lady herself walks to go look for Valvalis and Neliel, and perhaps bother some heroes on the way.

She puts a palm over her face with a sigh. Another fantasy shift.]

[yellowthirteen]

[While Daisy is out Evil Overlording it up, she will stumble across a man clad in well-worn black leather armor with a heavy black duster coat. A magical longrifle slung across his back, he is walking down the path with an odd drive and intent... a man who appears to be on the hunt... a hunt that may have no end.

She should easily be able to recognize him as David Jordan... but his demeanor is markedly different.

He pauses when he encounters the heavily armored overlord, though makes no effort to initiate combat or anything.]

[April 28th]

[infinitefrown]

[wh...... THIS IS NO TRENCHCOAT. WHY WAS THERE NOTHING ELSE IN HIS CLOSET??

... ...Well, you know what they say: when life gives you a giant sword, start practicing swingin' that thing! ...In a place where he's not likely to hit someone else, that is. And so, Ingo shall be marching determinedly towards the forest in this getup!]

[hark_a_suicune]

[The further into the forest you go, the stranger things get.
First, there's the lack of animal sounds. What kind of forest doesn't have the distant sound of squirrels cracking nuts or birds chirping? Only the kind only the bravest adventurers will enter, that's what, and this forest isn't quite ominous-looking enough to play the part.
Second, there's The Noise. The Noise starts out low at first. It seeps into your very being. It makes your ears pop, the same way flying too high into the sky with your Pokémon makes your ears pop. Then, it gradually gets louder, the vibrating quality of it vaguely reminiscent of a string instrument... No, that's silly. No string instrument could ever produce such a sound, right?

It's hard to say where The Noise comes from, exactly. But you're getting closer.]

Dark Side of the Moon Plotline/First Day/Villain Team

[cladinthedark]

In the dark of the night, evil will find her standing underneath the moon, Golbez waits in the clearing for his friends to arrive.

He stares down at the pendant in his hand, the item he's been searching for the other half to ever since he can remember. Now, at last, he's found its twin. Held in the grasp of what he believes to be the only other surviving Lunarian. Once he has it in his grasp, everything will be ready for their plan to begin, and then...

"The night will last... Forever."

In the dark of the night just before dawn.

[canterlock]

A dark shape swoops low over the rooftops, flapping hard. This is one of the few times when Luna is actually grateful that most of the populace is sleeping soundly, as it means there will be fewer villagers about who might notice her movements and the movements of her comrades.

Reaching the clearing and spotting the lone figure standing in its midst, Luna flares her wings and descends to land in front of him, throwing back her hood.

"Greetings, Golbez. We came as soon as we heard the news."

May 28 | Evil Assembly of Evil, Starring Yuri, Sokka, Shiki, Prince

[magentarific]

[ Their whole lair? Lit with like a million candles. Total fire hazard, but definitely looking like a legitimate evil organization. Yuri managed to secure a very nice, old looking chair from god knows where, almost looks like a throne, and is sitting sideways on it at the end of a long rectangular wooden table for this meeting. Anyone is free to speak up, naturally, but Yuri may pull dictator time if she feels like it. Or just dole out some nice torture or.. whatever she feels like. Who even knows where this lair is. Oh and Yuri has a cape and is wearing black and gold armor spiky armor instead of her normal uniform.

We're totally legit here, okay? ]

Re: May 28 | Evil Assembly of Evil, Starring Yuri, Sokka, Shiki, Prince

[bloodybishie]

[Wandering in and...

Wow, the decorations. Hardcore AND light-sourcing!

And here's the person who sent the invite. Shorter than expected. Prince pulls up a significantly less impressive chair and takes a seat about halfway down the table.]

So...

[April 28th]

[tolivefortoday]

[Of all the unexpected things to wake up to...

Yun already has an inkling it's pointless to fight the sudden shift in priorities that comes along with the wardrobe change, though, and so for the time being, Yun the Mysterious Forest Seer is going to play along as Yun, the Peppy Sidekick, uh, Thief... She should probably be worried that the idea of heading out to loot the entire village isn't raising any of her usual moral compass red flags, right? In any case, she can be found around Luceti up to no good doing the following:

- Bumping into you and apologizing on her way off again! You may want to check your pockets, sir or madam.

- In the houses, buildings, bases, castles, rummaging through your stuff or picking the locks on some mysterious chest that was never there before!

- Or maybe even inspecting loot from a satchel with seemingly infinite space within it at some high location, such as in a tree or sitting on the edge of a rooftop, as she hasn't decided on where she should set up a hideout just yet...

Just another exciting day in the life of... shoot. She needs to figure out an impressive title while she's at this, too.]

[mirrorblade]

[Accidents happen, so when the little girl bumps into Claude and quickly runs off with an apology, he's not too worried! He just nods at her and smiles...

...until he realizes that her apology isn't the only thing she ran off with! What the heck, it's always the little kids, isn't it?!]

Hey, come back here!

Any day? I guess?

[markofthewise]

[Sokka woke up with a maniacal laugh, a sinister grin, and also a white wig that just wouldn't come off. After getting dressed in the only thing sensible, he stepped out into the world with evil calculations and inventions in mind. My my my, wouldn't Luceti be so much more interesting if it was on fire? Or on ice? Or lightning? He needed more variety in his spells. Which. Apparently he had.

Though Sokka realizes all of this is crazy and the first thing he does is try to make himself go to the smithy. But when he gets there, he realizes he can't just take what he wants. Even if he is evil. He forgot his money back at home.

When he's not around town looking evil and dastardly and writing down plans to get revenge on everyone for some unspecified event in his past, he's returning to his basement at home to start building a secret and evil contraption that will allow him to finally rule Luceti once and for all.]

[April 28]

[lostinmyway]

[Anyone who sees Grune out and about won't actually notice too much of a change--in her personality, anyway. Her clothing, though? Welp. What she's wearing today looks a little more like this, only in green. She's also wearing a skirt with a high slit and more of a veil, but that's about it as far as modifications go.

As for her friends? Well, they're a little different. She'll be talking about Dhaos, of course--but since when is Alexei one of her friends? And who is this Schwann person, anyway?

Find her anywhere around the village; her role in this little drama has yet to begin....]

[April 28]

[mistlegacy]

[Rydia herself seems much the same, in temperament as well as clothing. The only notable difference at first might be the absence of any rods on her belt; instead, only her coiled whip remains. She exploring the town, glancing around wary for signs of another random encounter ambush by monsters.

While doing so, she spots Grune. Her eyebrows raise as she approaches her friend.]

Grune?

[Various Days!]

[dragoon_pride]

[Early/Alignment Good]

[The knight/antihero of the party is doing what he does best fotr the most part- keeping to himself and randomly wandering away from the party at odd times. In fact, those who Kain normally fights with might notice him coming and going a lot more than usual, he's just being a total revolving door of leaving and rejoining the group.]

[He's having some bitter thoughts about some of his teammates, although he won't admit to it directly. He'll still fight beside either his team or anyone else who seems to be Good and needing an extra fighter.]

[Mid-event/Alignment Evil]

[After he's turned to the Dark Side by Golbez, Kain has little regard for anyone who appears to be a "good" person. Former comrades are now enemies, and he's likely to backstab people who seem like good guys. He's got specific targets in mind, of course, but he won't hesitate to go after people who get in his way. An encounter with him at this point will undoubtedly lead to a fight...]

[Mid-event]

[mountain_sage]

[Saleh is just about to head up the mountain when he sees Kain. It had been a while since Kain had left the group (again), so seeing him safe was a relief.]

Kain! There you are. I wondered where you had run off to.

Any day!

[mydearapple]

[There comes a time in every adventurer's journey where he's in a tight spot and needs a bit of cash. And what better way to earn that cash than through some quick and easy gambling, right?

If you wander into Seventh Heaven, you might run into Caesar, a minigame NPC. The name of the game? Chinchirorin, of course! If you're too busy saving Luceti from evil to get a real job, then have a seat and play a round or three.]

(ooc: Obviously, if you tag, you're not required to play the game—we can just handwave it! However, I totally don't mind if you'd actually like to play. I personally really enjoy it, haha. :'| So if you do/don't want to play, make a note of it in your tag somewhere!)

[frost_jewel]

[Of course she's wandering into Seventh Heaven. Where else do weary White Mages go for a break on a busy day? Mia almost sits at a table alone, but she spots a red-headed man bearing dice and finds it very interesting. Interesting enough to go and sit down at his table, instead.

She's always been rather lucky. Her luck stat is the highest in GS iirc]

Good afternoon.

any day?!

[ex_restoring6]

[Oh, hello, were you in the middle of a quest? Did you just get the item that you were looking for? Sorry, there seemed to be a blur of black and then there's someone standing a little distance away, holding what you were just holding or had shoved into your inventory pocket for later, studying it with interest. Whoops.

This particular reluctant villain may be hanging around any given location, or may be tailing you from the shadows (hence, you know, the all-black clothes from head to toe; he even has a nifty hat that looks like it belongs more to a red mage than a thief). Heck, he might be chilling on your path when you're off to find a quest and may refuse to move. Since he's kind of reluctant to hurt anybody, being an obstruction works just as well, right? Right.

Fellow villains, you may be subject to a bout of polite staring or a nod if you happen to pass by the thief or you catch him lurking about in a shadowy area. Or else, Naoki might be the guy frowning as he spies on you doing your villainy shenanigan thing. Hey, Naoki, you're supposed to be a bad guy too, remember.]

[shinesbrightest]

[How could you steal from this poor, innocent, and also reluctant white mage? For shame...! The black blur takes Shinji by surprise, but it doesn't take him long to notice that the potion he was looking at (the one he's... not really sure why he was interested in to begin with) is missing. He looks around and spots Naoki, then notices that he seems to be looking at the exact same thing that he was just a moment ago. Did he... take it from him?

Shinji just sighs.]

You could've just asked.

First day, because I am late!

[implanta]

[Do you hear music? Of course you do! It's the sound of someone singing, even! She will be the best asset to your party, should you choose to pick her, as her skills as a bardess are sure to win you over!

Hence why she's in the most populated area she can find, singing her heart out in order to catch the eyes of a party of heroes looking for someone to take her with them. She's just as much of an adventurer as the rest, pinky promise!]

[falenanthief]

You sure have a lovely voice.

[What is this? Why, it's none other than a very dashing thief!]

[April 28th]

[savedtheworld]

[Action, Morning of First Day]

[Aang woke up in the morning to the repeated sounds of someone knocking at his door. Nothing seemed unusual; he felt well-rested. He was in a set of pajamas he did not normally own. However, he quickly entered the closet and came out in a set of monk clothes. There was no need for any morning exercises - the only experience that counted came from fighting monsters, anyway. Instead, Aang spent several minutes smashing pots around the house and collecting any money found within.

The knocking was still continuing, at the exact same tempo. Aang then spent some time checking the furniture around the house for anything hidden, before he made his way to the door and opened it to find...]

[ooc: First come, first served for whoever wants to be the knocker.]

[Action - Later That Day (and hey, any other day]

[Aang will be wondering around the village at most hours, trying to grind through random monster encounters and possibly searching for party members. Talk to him at your own discretion.]

[Any Day] /sorry so late!

[thenightmarebegins]

[Vincent has woken to find his guns all missing. He sets out to locate them, having a bad feeling about this... of course, he's right, because the building roaring inside his head tells him that certain creatures are longing to break forth.]

[There's naturally only one solution to keep them under control...]

[DANCE.]

[The constant random encounters are truly going to be a pain to deal with for the rest of the event.]

[Any Day] /aaaand my other late guy!

[most_unwanted]

[What is with this stupid hat!? Mulder is, of course, stuck with a fool's hat, and he keeps trying to take it off and lose it... around his room, outside on a tree... it doesn't matter, the damn thing keeps blowing back onto his head.]

[BUT he knows he's got a mission, a grand quest, basically it's the same one he's always been on... but he's going to need to find some Magical Items before he gets around to tackling the big boss.]

[Time to start raiding homes for goodies! Mulder is going to be obsessively going through every single treasure chest he finds, in every single building or house in town. Don't mind him passing through...]

[First Day]

[mistlegacy]

[Rydia's still searching for her rods around the house, when she hears the door open. Perking up, she calls out.]

Oh, good. I need another pair of hands. If you see my rods, let me know?
