directrice | [PALACE GAME SIGN UPS]

Have you noticed? Some of your friends sure are acting a bit. . . strange! And no matter how hard you may try to reach them, they can't hear you. Are they honestly and truly lost forever? Well. . . not if you have anything to say about it!

Welcome to PALACE GAME SIGN UPS!

The gist of the plot point is this: some characters have had their monsters gradually taking over, which has culminated in them having full control of that character's body. As this is not the result of a death consequence, it almost seems as though the take over is permanent. In order to restore control of these bodies to the original owners, [REDACTED] is going to be allowing the rest of the game into the Palaces of the afflicted characters with one simple instruction: "bring them back." The goal of each Palace will be to find and restore the character's lost consciousness. The methodology is being left up to Palace runners, so no two characters will be brought back the same way.

Based on the lower limits each runner has given me in advance, for now each character may sign up for two sessions, with at least one of them being guaranteed. However, there are caveats to the second sign up:

1. When signing up for any Palaces, specify "first game" for the one you absolutely want to play in, and "second game" for your second. This is so runners can give priority to those who have yet to play in a Palace, if their game participant cap has been met already. Runners have the right to say "hey sorry but I can't actually fit you into this session" to any "second game" sign ups. Please be kind to the runners and respect their limits!

2. Speaking of limits, spread yourselves out! If you see a slot has a cap of 7 and 7 people have already signed up with "first game," then you should use your "first game" sign up somewhere else. You may still sign up with "second game," especially if you talk to the runner in advance and get permission, but again, respect a runner's limits and try not to overload their slots. And if you see a Palace that doesn't have many sign ups at all, please feel free to jump in, even if you don't have CR with the person. Sometimes, the best CR is created when you tromp through someone's psyche, right??

3. BASICALLY JUST BE KIND TO RUNNERS AND ALSO TO EACH OTHER!! If you reeeeeeeeally want a certain session and it's full, then you can always talk to the runner themselves; just respect their decision if they say no!

AND THAT IS ALL. Remember Palaces are running from September 3 - 11. Many people are also willing to run multiple sessions, which is pretty awesome! Each runner should make a top level to this post with their Palace info (including any cws, if there will be any), and then sub top-levels with the dates and times they've chosen to run their Palaces. If the runner has any special instructions and/or permissions for their Palace, that should be included in the sign up top level as well.

OTHERWISE. . . HAVE AT IT! If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know!

I will be running two sessions!! 7 players max for both, and will be running on September 3rd @ 4PM and September 5th @ 1 PM, both in PST time. I'll probably focus very hard on both of these for at least 3-4 hours, and then backtags.

Monday is a holiday in the USA so I figure I can get some decent mileage for folks then. STUFF IS KIND OF UP IN THE AIR FOR ME OFFLINE but I am hoping that if I put stuff earlier in the week it will be easier for me to backtag as necessary to hopefully get everyone to the finish line. ♥

As far as warnings:

Spoilers through Lostbelt 4 (with a heavier emphasis on the Solomon chapter)

Probably body horror and other depictions of violence--there will be no combat unless you ignore NPC warnings, but there will definitely be some graphic violence remembered/displayed in certain areas

Asshole NPCs

Too many eyes

TOO! MANY! EYES!

ETA this is for the 3rd! I forgot to specify

FIRST GAME, for the September 5th session

September 5th! ♥

Sept 3

Can do the 3rd! But if not enough slots for some more prioritized CR just lmk he can dip!

My schedule is [house hell] but I am going to put down September 5th and if I need to switch it to the other one I will make sad faces and ask nicely

First game!! For the 5th.

I can do September 5th!

third game, and either session works for me!

If you can make the Saturday 9/3 one, that would work out best for me! ♥

absolutely!

I WOULD LIKE TO PLAY ON SEPT 5. . . but with a few caveats of a) that is a work day so I'll likely be an hour and a half late, and b) consider me the LAST OF THE LAST SIGN UPS so if your Sept. 5 session is too full, I can step back to let others play! But I'm putting this here to give Notice of Interest (TM).

shakes u lovingly IT'S GONNA BE A HOLIDAY FOR ME AND YOU ARE WELCOME TO COME!! being late might even work out better because theoretically at that point people will have moved on from the starting area. ( •̀ ω •́ )✧
