CANON UPDATES AND ITEM REQUESTS

[larkers]

> CANON UPDATES

Characters being updated mysteriously vanish at some point unobserved. When they return, they will wake up in their own bed with their new canon memories and any physical changes. They will not have any memory of how they vanished or where they may have been in that time. Players should feel free to use the IC disruption caused by this disappearance to change things up for their character! Or they could just have their friends cover for them.

For a day after returning, they will experience a dull burning sensation in their chest.

New characters are not eligible for a canon update until they're in the game for one OOC month.

To request a canon update for your character, please fill out the form below. Please do not have your character canon update in game until your request is approved.

PLEASE REMEMBER TO PUT "CANON UPDATE" IN THE SUBJECT LINE! <b>PLAYER NAME:</b> <b>CHARACTER NAME:</b> <b>CANON:</b> <b>CURRENT CANON POINT:</b> <b>UPDATED CANON POINT:</b> <b>BACKGROUND:</b> Just a wiki link covering the time between the two points will do! <b>HOW WILL THIS IMPACT YOUR CHARACTER?</b> Please give us a succinct summary of the changes this canon update will cause to your character's personality, as well as any physical changes.

> ITEM REQUESTS

Characters receiving items will wake up from a normal night's sleep to find themselves mysteriously holding the item. They'll remember nothing notable about their sleep.

Items are limited to one at a time, and they must hold some importance to your character. That means the item in question must be linked to your character in some tangible way.

Items cannot be alive or independently sentient. Items will not be nerfed unless it has a latent connection to your character in some way. If they can mentally teleport it across a room in canon to themselves, for instance, that won't be possible in game. The item will still retain any other properties, however.

Please wait at least one OOC month after your character's arrival in game before making any item requests. Players may only make one item request per character per month.

To request an item for your character, please fill out the form below. Please do not have your character receive the item in game until your request is approved.

PLEASE REMEMBER TO PUT "ITEM REQUEST" IN THE SUBJECT LINE! <b>PLAYER NAME:</b> <b>CHARACTER NAME:</b> <b>ITEM REQUESTED:</b> <b>ITEM PROPERTIES:</b> Please give us a rundown of the item's functions, abilities or powers. If it has none, just put N/A! <b>WHY IS THIS ITEM IMPORTANT TO YOUR CHARACTER?</b> Please give us a brief summary of what significance the item holds for your character.

Item Request

[incelligent]

PLAYER NAME: Icki
CHARACTER NAME: Simon Laurent
ITEM REQUESTED: This monstrosity
ITEM PROPERTIES: It's a handwritten self-insert fantasy novel he probably started working on when he was 15 or 16 years old. Um, it's terrible. There's no way his writing is any good.
WHY IS THIS ITEM IMPORTANT TO YOUR CHARACTER? A specific character beat of Simon's is that all his hobbies reinforce the idea that he sort of exists in a fantasy space in his head and has difficulty accepting reality when things don't go his way. He uses both writing and crafting miniatures as a coping mechanism for his anxiety, but his control freak nature makes these seemingly harmless little hobbies a lot more sinister than he lets on.
