▶ k a r l a c h, fury of avernus

I've got a fast life and a slow cuttin' knife. I've been drinkin' at a poisoned well. No home and a bag of bones and nothin' else left to sell. I know why I'm in this hell—I just don't wanna believe.

Past that line you just can't tell, but right now there's someone lookin' out for me.

I got one more shot at livin'. I'm lucky that I can, 'cause I got a little roughed up. Yeah, I really got fucked up.

Ahem. Should you find yourself running afoul of the carnivorous seedkin with a multitude of tentacles and gaping maw that spews a noxious gas, I can provide some relief from their effects.

[ It would be a complete cure but apparently the morbols here are different and he can't guarantee to relieve the effects entirely. SMH. ]

Let me know your location and I will find you there.

Greetings.

My name is Espio. I opted to reach out in this manner to make an offer. In my world, I was part of a detective agency. I would be glad to bring those skills to those in need here, should you have need of one. There are a great many mysteries in this world, after all.

...With that aside, I do have a request of my own. I'm looking to speak to someone who specializes in playing musical instruments. I will be glad to specify in a conversation.

ENABLE ME TIMBERS: JUNE 2025


YO HO HO EVERYONE! This is an ATP/EMP post where players can make cast requests for people to app into, or make ads for characters they are considering bringing into the game. It works like any other ATP/EMP, but we do have a few things to note down:

» Invitations are required to reserve and apply! But you can go ahead and post to the ATP/EMP post with a note you need an invite. If you know a current player, they can comment here to submit their invite for approval. Direct requests to the mods are currently closed.

» We have a 65 player cap.

» Players can only app 2 characters at once with a max limit of 3 in game. But since this is an ATP/EMP, feel free to put more if you're having trouble deciding!

» Our Game Info should cover everything you need, from basic premise summary to the nitty gritty details of the game mechanics. If you have any questions, post them there.

» Just want to make it clear that this is not a claims page. While we give priority to whoever is on the Reserve list, we do allow app challenges, and there is no rule against multiple players TDMing the same character. Of course we don't want there to be too much conflict, so everyone please be polite no matter who it is.

» TDM is Saturday, June 14. This TDM will double as our "Sticky Situation" event, but we will include a traditional "starter prompt" for TDM specific characters. Everything will be carried over as canon!

» Reservations open Tuesday, June 24th.

» Applications open Tuesday, July 1st.

» Use the following codes to write up your character or cast ad!

MANTA BOARD: JUNE 2025


The MANTA Board is posted every month, but the quests are on a "2 month cycle." This means quests can last for two months with possible updates or new additions in the second month before it completely refreshes for the next cycle.

For this month's board update, the quests have been updated to reflect progress from last month, with some carrying over as is. We have designated toplevels for the special bounty Closing Loose Ends and special quest Finding Elah.

Quests are separated into five categories and all have flat point values: General (4pts), Corsair (4pts), Paladin (4pts), Bounties (6pts), and Specials (12pts). Crew quests are listed under "Specials" and are worth the same amount of points (12pts). Although these quests are intended for established crews, non-members are allowed to assist if the crew invites them. However, non-members would only receive 6pts. Similarly, characters helping opposing armada quests will only be rewarded 2pts for participation unless specified otherwise. Special quests won't always be available so it may appear blank at times. These can range from group quests such as for special ship upgrades or island related quests, or they could be special event quests. All quest points can be used for the Rewards Shop.

If you wish to submit a quest, comment in the appropriate field during Activity Check with the quest written and we'll add it to the next month! Crews are also still allowed to make their own quests without our approval, but if uncertain players can comment here about them.

If you have any questions regarding any current quest, comment to this entry.

SAIL WITH ME: JUNE 2025


An abbreviated version of our CR Workship! Same concept, just a lot smaller. If you have multiple characters, make an individual toplevel for yourself with your player info and comment to it with each character separately.

We also include a designated toplevel for Crew Recruitment where players can make OOC ad posts for others to either join or request to join or make a crew. This is all for OOC coordination, so you'll have to figure out how it works ICly.

PLAYER INFO

Player:
Contact: Preferred means of contact


CHARACTER INFO

Character: Character
Canon: Include canon point
Armada: Paladin or Corsair

About: Briefly talk about the character. Can include background info or just stick with personality traits—whatever will be most useful to help other players learn about them! You can include a link to any character profile sheets or entries you might have, too.


PLANS

General: Any ideas or plans you'd like to do with your character? This could be short term or long term.
MANTA Board: Any plans for the MANTA Board?
Event: Any plans for the event? Topleveling? Tagging out? Specific prompts that caught your interest?

Etc.: Anything else or, you know, the usual memes. NOTE: we have an image code for players to use as it will fix the width of the image to 400px. This is so large images don't take up entire pages. If your image is smaller than that you can remove the code, otherwise please use the code.

Is there something I can make for you? Or perhaps fix?

It's ready! I think. I'm pretty sure. Doesn't he look awesome?! We can probably fly again! Baymax, test out the rocket fist.

[The camera points back to Baymax in the armour. The fist that isn't connected to the shield/barrier at his arm comes forward, and he aims it, firing it and showing that it works, to Hiro's delight. Hiro whoops and leaps in his excitement.]

Okay. Now flying.

[Baymax activates his rocket boots, showing that he can hover and control it before he goes higher, doing a circle above Hiro before landing again.]

Yes! Yes! This is awesome! It works! It finally works!

To: Public/Everyone
Subject: Transformations
Warnings: uh idk talk of transforming/not being human??

[Chopper turns on the video, seeming nervous, but determined at the same time. He figures he should probably tell everyone about his other transformations, just in case. He doesn't want to accidentally scare or confuse anyone, after all. He....probably should have done this a good while ago. Still, better late than never? Or something like that. He takes a deep breath and gives a wave with his hoof to the camera of the shellphone.]

Um. Hello, everyone. It's me. Chopper. I just figured I should let everyone know. I know this is what most of you have seen, this form. It's the one I call Brain Point. But I have others too. Guard Point, Walk Point, Heavy Point, Arm Point, Horn Point, and Jumping Point. I just thought I should show everyone. So I don't scare anyone. Or confuse anyone.

[And he will show each one to the camera. So that everyone can see what he looks like. So that nobody hopefully gets surprised by it. Even if he is usually in his Brain Point form, that doesn't mean he never finds reason to change sometimes. So it is better to prepare everyone?]

Um. I hope this is okay. That I didn't scare anyone. I just figured this way it wouldn't be a surprise? I'm also still trying to help out where I can, as a doctor, so. If anyone is sick or hurt, just let me or the rest of my crew know, and I can come help!

ACTIVITY CHECK: MAY 2025


Ahoy, mateys! Here be the monthly Activity Check!

In the Extra Notes section, please note the following, as well as anything else worth noting:

  • Discoveries about the missing ships and crews near the drowned island.
  • Discoveries about the Tara-Tam Deepcroft.
  • Results from current bounties.
  • Any results/discoveries from crew quests.
  • Any whales that were helped/treated in Baleen's Reach.
  • Any deep sea folk assisted.
  • Ideas/results/conclusions from discussions on how to bring Elah back.


Please check our Activity Check guidelines on our Game Info page for complete details, but here is the quick list of what you need to know:

» Only threads dated from May 1st through May 31st count towards the month's activity. (With the exception of certain backdated threads, read the linked AC guidelines for more details.)

» Activity requires one thread of at least 5 comments. The comment count is from your character.

» Any thread counts, including those made within your own entries and subthreads within your own toplevels. Individual entry posts do not count, only the threads within the posts. TDM threads with non-game characters will count.

» Continuation threads are considered as part of the previous thread so they count as one thread not two. For the sake of ease, we would like the two threads linked together.

» You are exempt from any checks for hiatuses that last for over 21 days. Anything less and you'll still need to submit your AC unless there are other circumstances.

» Because we are a capped game, there is no strike system. If you do not make the AC requirements, you will be cut.

» Bonus AC points: All extra non-quest threads not used for AC will be worth 2 extra points that can be used for reward redemption. Please check our Rewards page for more details.


There will be no warnings. All submissions are due Saturday, May 31st 11:59PM US Eastern.

EXTRA FIELDS: This is not required and completely optional, but included in the submission form are two optional fields: Extra and MANTA Board Posting.

For the Extra field, this is just a space for players to note anything that occurred in their threads that they think might be fun for us to know. So if something particularly interesting happened (for example: discovering a new creature or location, an old artifact, or perhaps a character has stolen something), we highly encourage players to jot them down! Who knows, we may even find a use for it… In addition, we may ask players to submit certain activity related to an event.

You may also submit MANTA board requests to be included in the upcoming board. We will try to add them immediately, otherwise we'll save them for the next Board or a time we deem fitting. If you don't have one in mind at the time of AC, you can post it later to the upcoming Captain's Log announcement.



If you have any questions, ask them here.


FORM: Fill out the following form and comment directly to this post. If you have multiple characters, please put them in one comment.

Couple things I've been wondering about, lately. Figured now that the brand crap has settled down a bit, it's as good a time as any to ask.

- Any word on where the Paladin Leviathan went? Lost track of that discussion with all the under water adventures.

- Has anyone heard anything about any Riftfarers ever getting promoted in their respective Armadas? We know they have superiors, a council each - Paladins especially have a military type structure, from what I've seen. But has anyone ever been an officer? Or whatever passes for it in the Corsairs?


[It just seems weird, okay.]

- And ah, less seriously

[He almost starts typing "Looking for experience with getting a house" but deletes it. That's too forward, probably.]

Pet fish. Suggestions welcome. The hardier the species the better.
