June IC Announcements

Starting this month there will be a minor change in how monthly announcements take place. First one to go out will be your OOC Announcements. We do very much advise everyone to read this post.

Meanwhile this is the second post: our June IC Announcements. IC Announcements will include any information about changes going on in setting (seasonal changes, new fun things to play with, etc), pending events (event drop dates, hints on what events will be, etc), and anything else we figure will be important to note IC, including reminders in a general sense if we see something getting forgotten a lot (like that Agra 10 has a 30 hour day). We also encourage our players to see this IC Announcements post as a way to plot/plan related to events, player plots, or just general exploration/life on Temba. So, with that news out of the way, let's see what's interesting this month in Temba!

✧ CALIBRATIONS ENDING ✧

Calibrations runs through June 10th. On the 11th all characters trapped in Calibrations will be released back into Temba. Once exiting, a character will not be able to reenter the space. If a character left their clothes behind there in favor of the offered options in Calibrations, they will find their original outfit clean and back at whatever space they reside in normally. Their communicator will be on them once they step out, right in hand. Everything else they might have had on them will be back at their main residence.

As has been determined before by Cayde and Billy, it will not be able to destroy the door to the Calibrations down in the tunnel, but that doesn't mean that people aren't allowed to make the attempt. Repeatedly. As creatively as any character may wish at that. Just let the mods know in the questions comment below if you are attempting to do this, in case the method being used might have other repercussions.

That said, the close of the event does not mean that people may not tag this event. You're welcome to keep backtagging or even tag anew if the other players still want to play. There is no OOC close for this, just an IC end date.

✧ JUNE SETTING CHANGES ✧

Whether returning to Temba from Sh'Ka, or coming out of Calibrations, characters will find that summer has arrived. The temperatures are hotter, there's sun for more of the thirty hours of the day than normal, and it seems to be a time for growth. A lot of growth. Wait, isn't spring normally when growth happened? Well, it's definitely happening now, in Sh'Ka too, though it's starting slowly. Paths that are well cut maybe growing up a bit faster than expected in Temba, new trees picking up height a bit faster than you expected in Sh'Ka, the landscaping drones at Sh'Ka's estate coming out and being more busy than earlier.

There's even some new growth near the Jedi Temple, where once the Jedi present would tend to the plants. But it's just the lushness of summer, and it should be enjoyed while one can. The good news for those who are a bit overheated or tired of the plant life, well they are always welcome to head south out of Temba to head for the beach. But that's really up to the He Rows! Why is that? Well June is a plot and event free month. The fun characters may find is their own to determine. Perhaps life has decided to let up a bit given how hard the last month was. Perhaps fate is just kind.

As a reminder, it's always possible to keep up with what threads have been ongoing using our State of the Game tag.

Like it says on the label!

I just got the one boy but!

He wasn't part of Calibrations but has just been kind of chilling best he can in Sh'Ka while it happened. Not doing too much. Lance is still spending forever trying to plan the perfect wedding with Keith, and hopefully they'll get around to it soon! Heck, maybe sooner than later since things seem to be calming down for a while. He's also planning on trying to build/adapt a proper house for them and their ~~zoo~~ pets so he'll probably ask for some help on that too.

And heck yeah he's gonna be spending a ton of time at the beach.

Aside from that, I am very, very open to plotting, continuing CR, and especially making new CR! I've been slow/absentish for a while due to health issues but I'm doing my best to slam back into things now, and I would love for more interactions with people.

I have no major plans yet for June, so I'm open to ideas.

Looking to continue current CR and definitely find new stuff. No shipping because Keith here is on his way to get married, but any other type of CR is definitely cool, even potentially negative stuff.

I'd love to get Keith out to explore a bit more. I wanted to do Calibrations, but was unfortunately tied up with things in real life, so I'm going to handwave that he was over in Sh'Ka with the others to make things easier in that regard. He and Lance are planning a wedding and house-hunting (or even just plot-of-land-hunting to build something with salvaged materials if needed). Keith is technically the "dad" to two furbabies... Kosmo the cosmic wolf, and Snow the perpetual snow leopard cub (she's not getting any bigger). Both are pretty free to run about, so I'm open to pet shenanigans as well.

Keith will also likely be dragged to the beach often by his fiancé. As payback, he makes Lance deal with the wet Kosmo smell.

Slowly coming back after a hiatus... to give the cliff notes version:

1. the Soldier was triggered into full Winter Soldier mode by Beck, and broke him out of whatever prison he was held in
2. while everyone else was in Calibrations, the Soldier was sent off by the Agrii for one of those "mysterious missions" that happen when you hiatus
3. he's baaaaack!!!

I'm looking to ease back into things because work has become a 7-man team playing 11-man football lately and I don't have a lot of time for the fun things, sadly. On the table is:

1. locating the Soldier like physically I have no idea where he is but probably Sh'Ka out of habit
2. deciding on mental state as in still triggered or starting to shake it off (or knocked out of it by Agrii) and what might be most interesting to pursue

I welcome all potential ideas with the caveat that I need to keep it fairly light, load-wise, and need the understanding that anything with me will be molasses slow right now. Also of note is that the Winter Soldier personality can be somewhat triggering in terms of violence/mention of violence, and I will do my best to avoid people for whom that can be upsetting.

His calibration stuff was all about being stuck in one room so he will go out and do stuff. Mostly he'll be setting up shop in an empty factory, and most likely it will end up full of simple mechanical things at the moment. Since he didn't have it for all of calibrations he'll carry on not using his crutch but this will also mean he can use both hands for the first time in his life. I'm gonna send him over to the mural because he needs more bright colors in his life. This will also mean that he needs to have painting lessons, or maybe just lessons in how to make paint?

Just this guy here. He didn't do calibrations on his own because I didn't want to give away his full timeline to Gladio because that will be a face to face discussion..eventually.

He's still doing agriculture, so plants will definitely be a thing but if they're vegetables he'll attempt to make it look good.

Beach and Noct go together because that's where the fish live. He's still going to have his hands full of fishing for the diner, and he's a competitive sort, so feel free to tag him for fun stuff there. Or he can hang out at a bonfire and sit around because that's something he's used to as well.

He can go look for people if they get lost since that's something he's used to doing, and he can use his knowledge of agriculture to help folks.
