dreamtideooc | Activity Check + Next Event

Sorry that this is late. One part irl, two parts just being a really inept mod.

Okay! This is only going to be a baby AC, because it's the first one and because of the LJ mess. Later checks will need two proofs, one from each month.

This one needs one - link to one proof of activity (a linkshell post or log you've posted or ten or more comments in someone else's), here or on LJ, from any time between the start of the game and now. I'm pretty sure everyone in the game can make this, I'm mostly just checking who we've lost to the move.

If you can't make this fore whatever reason and want to stay in, just let me know. Characters who hace been accepted in the last two weeks are exempt from providing a proof but if you could just pop in and comment to help me keep things straight then that'd be grand.

~~Kain Torture Month~~ Phantom Fever

Centuries ago, another world split in two and sealed the rift between its halves. The town of Phantom Village was sealed with it, forgotten by the world for a thousand years.

A man arrives in the underworld, claiming to be from a place called Phantom Village. This place has been sealed away for a thousand years - its natives have a culture completely untouched by any part of any other world.

And, unfortunately, he is ill with a sickness that nobody in any other world has ever experienced or developed a resistance to.

This event will start shortly. Basically, an illness will begin to spread. It's up to you whether you want your characters to actually catch it, the actual being ill part of this event is entirely opt-in, but the world as a whole will be affected by attempts to cure or contain the illness.

~~Incidentally, anyone who signed up for the Healers? This is going to be a hellish month for you.~~

The symptoms of the illness are being left vague and 'decide on it for yourself'-y, mostly to allow anyone with specific grossouts/triggers to avoid things they don't want to read/write about. If you are going to go into grossout detail about symptoms, please label/put it behind a cut to be considerate to your fellow players! It can be as mild or severe as you like.

I was going to kick this off on the 14th so that I could go HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY, ENJOY YOUR HORRIBLE ILLNESS. But I have a different little event in mind for that.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

I think Rydia will fall victim to this illness, thanks to a certain moonbitty. Mist will need help!

I am going to get at least one of mine sick! Not all of them, though. Hilda is most likely to not be, because she's helping out the healers. Doesn't mean she won't work herself close to exhaustion, though.

I might have WoL be the one of the guys who gets sick- because he doesn't know how being sick feels yet and would ignore it and try and continue on anyway. But I may decide on Golbez.

If Golbez gets sick, he'll have to deal with a sickly summoner trying to help him, too.

Hilda and Terra should be exhaustion buddies.

... This is also a good incentive to do it. :|a

They should be! I think all the white mages will be exhaustion buddies by the time this is over. |D

ALL THE NAGGING.

~~You could always stagger it out and have one of them ill at first, then the other later.~~

Kain is going to get sick! He's going to get it really bad, too, and early on make repeated attempts to go train as normal and so on. BUT this illness will definitely force him to have to be in civilization somewhere so white mages can nag at him. XD

...and I'm thinking to have him die of this, after the thing that happens on Valentine's Day making everything worse! >.> APOLOGIES TO TERRA IN ADVANCE!

I think Balthier or Edgar will get sick (maybe both) and Aerith will take to running around trying to heal people! Since that's what she does best.

/such a wrong account to be making this comment with

If Edgar and Balthier want a pretty nurse.. :3

Terra will be fretting non-stop, won't she.

Luca is going to be ill early on, but not badly. She'll be freaked out by it, because anything getting past dwarf immune systems is pretty scary, but she'll be on call with the Falcon to get people to members of the healers or vice-versa.

Porom isn't going to be struck until very late in the month, when it'll be starting to die down. And she's going to be in kind of an awful state. But being Porom she's going to try to avoid infecting people and keep working anyway. Someone may need to nag her. Until then, she's going to be HEALSPAM ALL THE THINGS, as well as trying to organize the healers so they're in a position to be able to help as much as possible.

Scott I don't actually have any plans for right now. ANY REQUESTS?

And as an unrelated thing. Do people prefer that future evens are kept ~secret~ or that they're revealed earlier?

So the white mage pile will have to be used on a white mage, huh? :3

As for Scott, I don't have any requests, though if he does get sick Hilda will be doing a lot of worrying about him, and will probably become exhausted sooner herself.

I like knowing and planning, but that's just me! It's also not a huge thing if it's kept secret, either, so I'm cool either way. I know it was fun knowing about this month of torture coming up. XD

Oh! Question for you, after they drag Kain out of the crystal, will he still be sick/other things wrong? I think I remember you mentioning they revive in a state of "need a white mage fast but no longer fatal"?
