ACTIVITY CHECK: SEPTEMBER 2022

Activity Check: September 2022
It's time for activity check! Activity requirements are outlined below. If you have any additional questions, you can reach out to us on the FAQ.

View Activity Requirements
  • Players will be required to link at minimum two threads with a brief summary of what each thread entails. Some months will have specific goals or events where linking extra threads related to those plots will result in extra rewards.

  • There is no minimum comment count for linked threads, but we do ask that the threads indicate some level of interactivity with another player. We understand that sometimes threads are started late in the month, or are slow for reasons of conflicting availability between individual players, and so on. If we notice a pattern of making threads to fulfill the AC requirements and ignoring responses, or dropping threads as soon as AC is approved, we will have an individual discussion with the player in question.

  • TDM threads, network threads, and inbox threads are acceptable as proofs for AC, but should not make up the total of both proofs (i.e. your two thread proofs submitted for AC cannot consist only of inbox threads). Further, at least one proof should be a log thread - both proofs cannot be network-style comment spam.

  • Backdated threads from the previous month are acceptable, so long as the comments linked take place during the current AC month and the thread has not been used for a previous AC or for AC rewards. Backdated threads that were started at the end of the previous month are especially fine. If we notice a consistent pattern of backdated threads started at the beginning of the previous month with very sparse comments or regularly dropped threads, then we may have an individual discussion with the player in question.

  • If you plan on using additional threads in a log post or top level to purchase bonus Activity Rewards, please link individual threads when filling out the main Activity Check rather than the entire top level or log, to help us keep track which thread has already been submitted where.

  • You may hiatus once every four months (so, once you use a hiatus, you must make activity for the next three months). If you have extenuating RL circumstances that would require you to hiatus more, please contact the mods. There are no strikes separate from hiatuses, but you are not required to hiatus in advance of AC so if you find yourself without the necessary activity you can use your hiatus pass.

  • Failing to post to AC before closure will count as idling out. If you think you'll be unable to post during this time period or extenuating RL circumstances prevented you from posting please contact the mods.

Please fill out the following form by September 30th at 11:59 PM ET to stay in the game! Failure to reply will count as idling out.



If you are passing with a hiatus or a strike, please use this form instead:



NOTE:
  1. There are no event gains for August's event. Characters may still request their Horizon gain if they haven't claimed it already. There is no strict time limit for requesting a Horizon gain, but we suggest doing so within the first few months of entering the Horizon.

Thread 2 Link + Summary: Ronan, Stephen, and Kylo set off on a mission.
Notable actions: Ronan, who is enthusiastically supportive of the actions against the Free Cities, offered to act as a spy for the Queen and manifest magical weapons of mass destruction if they become necessary. Because the Queen has refused so far to meet with him personally, he's delivering vague information to her guards but keeping any sensitive intel to himself (because he doesn't trust the guards). He also volunteered to join Stephen and Kylo on the mission to retrieve supplies from Solvunn.

Player Name: Inky
Character Name: Claire Novak
Thread 1 Link + Summary: Helping Jayce with preparations prior to Libertas Relief Efforts
Thread 2 Link + Summary: Aids Petry in her Tier 1 Search and Rescue Quest
Power or physical gain: For her Horizon Gain: As a divine vessel by bloodline and former host of an angel, I would like Claire to develop passive abilities loosely based on the concept of Familiars, with Claire as a Vessel taking on the role of a familiar. Specifically: Other people being able to channel their abilities and senses through Claire as if they were "possessing" her (aka standing in her position). Limited by how strong her ties with the person are, as well as strength/duration of the power channeled and distance between Claire and the person using the power. This is specifically not intended to be an ability where Claire gets to actively copy someone's power - but rather she must choose to allow someone to channel their own power through Claire's body, with an IC and OOC goal of teamwork and CR building to utilize and long-term strengthen the ability.
Initial levels would allow for very short term channeling of perceiving through Claire's senses (like gaining a 5 second glimpse) while within the same city/location once per day, leading to one time use of a very minor power/gain (akin to a cantrip or similar) once per day while the user and Claire are within line of sight of one another, and only by people Claire has built a level of trust and CR strength with where she's subconsciously able to allow it.
Discovery of this power could initially even be purely accidental, and require focused training to be done reliably and on purpose.
The very long-term development goal would be to allow for sufficiently strong CR to be able to passively perceive through Claire for longer durations and at larger distances, as well as use stronger abilities through her at larger distances, with the caveat that the larger the distance, the stronger the power, the longer the duration of perceiving through her, the more it will exhaust Claire, to keep a cap on how often it can be done.
Notable actions: After some brushes with obscurity and delinquency, Claire's making an effort to to get herself together and contribute to the new world she finds herself in. As per the above thread links, Claire makes herself useful by assisting Jayce in his workshop prior to the trip to Libertas, making sure to get his supplies ready for transport and lending her hands to pack things up. Subsequently in Libertas, she joins the search and rescue efforts (ongoing threads with Petra as well as plans with Steve Rogers and Sam Wilson respectively).

Player Name: Amanda
Character Name: Jo Harvelle
Thread 1 Link + Summary: Jo Meets Jack Kline
Thread 2 Link + Summary:Quest: Search & Rescue w/ Team Competency
Notable actions: After the attack on Libertas, Jo's spent most of the last month in Libertas. She made care packages with Nadine; went out with a team first (involving Nadine, Dean, & Jayce); and then returned nearly every day to help with whatever she could: rescuing people, bringing out bodies, clearing rubble in the way of blocked-off parts of the city, defending groups from looters or bandits if they'd tried to take advantage of the situation.

The only time Jo's not been busy in Libertas was when she had sword lessons in Cadens. The second month of learning to use a sword (as part of her deal not to go hunting outside Cadens for two months), Dean got Ciri to teach her, and Jo stumbled on to a second master swordsman teacher on her own.

She also would have given a very by the books/factual recounting of the events of what happened to the guards of the castle, when asked, but will not have given much more beyond the facts.

Thread 1 Link + Summary: Sam + Julie; Sam trying to ease some of the tensions between them while also leading up to an apology Julie is uh...kind of owed.
