9-10; War of the Worlds
The armies have assembled! Citizens who have been in wars will find themselves drafted into an army or supplied with soldiers from their own world to do their bidding. Whether that bidding is for better or worse is really up to what lies in the heart of the citizen isn't it? They must decide what they're fighting for and quickly because chances are there's probably someone else who has a takeover on the brain, and there is much to take over. The sea around the City has receded considerably, granting more land upon which battles may occur, and the Deities don't seem to care who'll win. [Deaths that result from this curse are exempt from City!Death. Destruction of parts of the forests, beaches, fields, and the mountain are allowed, however the urban area of the City including main buildings (the twelve apartment complexes, the Hospital, the Academy, etc.) are off limits to fighting. They can be patrolled and small skirmishes can erupt on the streets but homes and buildings will not be destroyed. NPC soldiers are granted as platoons of 30 soldiers per 1 character who has held a leadership position in their canon. When the curse is over, the terrain left by the receding sea will revert to their unharmed forms (because no one likes a blood stained field) and stay as permanent fixtures of the game. Yes, the island is getting bigger. There will be a post in poly_tldr with more information for players to organize cast-related armies and plot battles if they wish!]

As promised, here's a post where players may put troops together, share information on the canon types of soldiers their character has, formulate scheming agendas and what not.

( here are guidelines to keep in mind )

So this is awkward! I took a hiatus to reorganize my work schedule and ended up getting... more work. Bottom line is under this schedule, I can't find time for Poly even with only one character, so I'm going to be bowing out for now. It's been a blast playing with you all and if things calm down again (possibly after New Years) then I might be back. But for now...

So as of yesterday and today, Lockon, Setsuna, Tieria, Saji, and Anew are all going around posting up and handing out these flyers in the Square.

( The flyer, IC! )

What does this mean for you OOCly? Well, Celestial Being is essentially creating a support team for helping to deal with curses. If your character is the civic-minded sort, they might want to get involved. Or they can just mock the efforts--it's up to you, of course.

None of this, of course, will put an end to the curses; it's more aimed at giving characters things to do during and about them. In other words, it's just characters doing what they can to establish some order in the chaos of the City, while knowing all the while that there will still be plenty of that chaos. Drop a line here if you have characters who'd be interested--or just go ahead and post about it IC! I know a lot of characters are already doing some of these things individually; we're just trying to open up some more CR and RP opportunities with it.

Yep, this is all mod-approved. And yes, "Curse Brigade" is a terrible name. It was thought up by a man who thought "Lockon Stratos" was a cool codename.

CHI AND I ARE GETTING MARRIED.

Okay not really. Or not yet. But I am back. I've been backtagging around a bit, but if I've missed something you want me to hit, please let me know! And I want to know what's been going on, if I've missed something important.

Everyone is off autopilot and Syaoran will be coming back into the City either tomorrow or maybe Tuesday. There will be a post of course.

So yes, moresake, li_xiao_lang, and iactmore are back and up to old tricks.

Okay, you know when you've got week-old tags you just can't manage to answer, you need a teensy break from a character. Add to that the fact that my RL is absolutely insane and, well... yeah. So my sincerest apologies to those I left hanging.

That being said, Deb's gonna leave the City for a bit. Effective this morning, she was MIA and up in the Hall of the Missing.

But, she will be back. I just don't have the energy right now.

On the same basic topic, even though they're still in the City and in play right now, if tags from dr_conscience and mumbled_truth go spotty or slow, please bear with me~? I'm just trying to graduate next month. XD
