Hi everyone! Kira here. I'm going to be running a player plot (with stuff for everyone to get involved with) + a related game. You do not have to have engaged with the former to play in the latter. You do not need CR with Unisonya, either!

Some shenanigans will be going on from Monday 9th January - Friday 13th.
The game will be running from Friday 13th - Sunday 15th.

More details below the cut!


THE "PLOT"
On Monday 9th January OOC, 4 ~*~Feathers~*~ will be scattered across Reverie. They're immensley magically powerful, and nobody will be able to contain or even really touch them to start.

Feather 1 - Time Distortion
Those affected by this Feather will either be aged up or de-aged! This is mental AND physical. If they age up out of Reverie, their memories will be foggy — they won't know how Reverie ended.

Each character has between 1 and 5 "tethers"/objectives decided by and known only to their player. This could be anything! Being called a certain name, taken to a certain place, doing xyz with them, discussing certain topics, etc. Difficulty is up to you!

The goal is to remind them of when and who they truly are. Once all of the tethers/objectives have been hit, the character will return to their regular self.

Feather 2 - Dreamers
This Feather causes character(s) to fall into a dream — or a nightmare! Oops! Other characters will be dragged in as well, like a souped up dream post with win conditions.

You have a few choices choices with this one!
1) Your character is present and interactable in some fashion, and must be convinced that this is a dream in order to return to reality.
2) Your character is not interactable, but there are other win conditions (find x, do y)
3) A mix of both! Your character is there somewhere, but it's going to take work to find them.

Feather 3 - Villain(s) of the Week
Effects either the character themselves OR their monster, who would take over. Is there something they've been wanting, physically or emotionally? Is there something that has annoyed or upset them, or sparked some serious joy? Suddenly they have the power (and lack of inhibitions) to do something about it, making it everybody else's problem in the process.

They have become the SUPERVILLAIN OF THE WEEK, and only a boss battle can save the day! This could be as serious or as silly as you like — heck, it could even be an AA-style lawyer trial. Whatever's most fun for you.

Yes, you can have a funky cool villain wardrobe change. Yes, you can have some kind of thematically appropriate power. You do you. Just note that it can't exceed Reverie's powercap!

Or, if you don't fancy doing it with your player character, you could run a PvE bossfight! Maybe a formerly normal-ass plant has mutated into a horrifying plant monster. Maybe a badly treated book has come to life, mutated, and is a rampage through the village.

Defeating the ""Villain"" (whether PC or NPC) will return them to their regular self.

Feather 4 - MYSTERY ...

SUMMARY
SO AS YOU CAN SEE this is all pretty flexible! The only real requirement is that whatever you do, there must be a "win" condition.

You don't need to formally sign up, but feel free to comment to this entry to gauge interest with your CR if you want to!

ALSO YOU CAN DO MORE THAN ONE IF YOU WANT TO.

THE GAME
From 13th-15th January, myself and Witty will be running an exploradora-esque game! If you've ever played my Jumanji or explora games, it will be similar in style. There may be danger, and there may be puzzles! Their objective will be to find the key items. Injury and death will be possible, but it shouldn't be super heavy trauma.

More information & sign-up sheets to follow soon-ish, but you can expect a variety of mixed-team sessions! Just sign up for whatever date/time most suits you. I anticipate that sessions will last between 3~4 hours each.
