Characters: Javert, Lin, Orion, and Iskierka
Date: Oct. 22nd
Location: The Metal Sector streets
Situation: Javert is assigned a random ass team of hardened ol’ coppers and one dragon. Together they must stop the Metal Sector “Urs” gang from recruiting young kedan. Without force or fire and I am looking at you Iskierka.
Warnings/Rating: Sharp tongues. Language. Uh… Possibly mature themes? Violence will be mostly avoided but we will see.

[Four unexpected allies hitch a ride on the back of a massive truck. They are headed for the Metal Sector, where they will comb the streets for crafty gang recruiters and lost, ragged children. Javert, a tall and fierce fellow with massive sideburns and a firm-mouthed grimace, fixes an arresting gaze on each of his teammates in turn.

When Javert signed up for this mission, he assumed he could simply waltz his reckless self into the middle of Urs gang business and convince the children of a better option than violence with a witty turn of phrase. He had not counted on sharing this business with three mercenaries (no, two. Two mercenaries. Lin is a dependable, tough woman, who knows these gangs as well as any outsider can!). That meant three extra skins he had to watch, three other bodies for him to protect. That meant a radical change from his head-first up the creek without a paddle strategy.

Especially considering the identity of the largest of his teammates: A dragon. Javert briefly considered talking the mission coordinator out of this thoughtless placement, but alas, he has to work with the cards dealt to him. And, well, it could be worse. He could be stuck with that ninny of the lawyer and his dreadful, pitying smile. His lack of common sense would have been sure to get them both - and an entire city block - sniped in seconds.

Javert settles a thoughtful, critical eye on the dragon. His thin, grimacing lips twist into something that one would be hard-pressed to call a smirk, and he tosses a glance to Lin.]


They will think we have come to smoke them. That will go over splendidly. [His brow drifts lazily upwards, and he directs a brisk question to the woman without bothering to explain himself to the others present.] Two options. Where is your make-up kit?

Characters: Any and every!
Date: August 10th - 31, 2013
Location: The sunken city of Sinbrilee
Situation: Tu Vishan comes upon the oceanfloor, holding his own memorial to the fall of his sister turtle while those upon his shell may explore the ruined city.
Warnings/Rating: Please place content warnings in subject headers!

Sinbrilee | Dreaming | Death



Art by Rica.


The city is lit by a warm orange glow, there are thousands of lanterns lit and burning brightly to ward off the gathering dark. It was once a grand, thriving place, and it's obvious by the quality of the Greco-Roman architecture, the high sweeping columns of white marble, the beautifully paved roads. There are aqueducts throughout the city that look as if they could be put to use today. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the city's spent the last few hundred years underwater, it looks quite liveable. This city is entirely open to exploration, so feel free to send your character out to their heart's content. Remember, certain doorways will lead your characters into either Death or the Dreaming and these markings won't always be visible to them, so they should take care and be vigilant at all times!

Note: A separate post will be made for the events of the Bacchanal later in the month.

Characters: Any and every!
Date: August 10th - 31, 2013
Location: The realm of Dreaming as accessed via Sinbrilee
Situation: Dreaming is but one of the three realms and here characters are subject to their fanciful thoughts.
Warnings/Rating: Please place content warnings in subject headers!

Sinbrilee | Dreaming | Death


Life. Dreaming. Death. Three realms overlaid upon one another and yet each distinctly their own. They dwell in Life and do so live upon the back of the great turtle as those of Sinbrilee did upon the shell of his sister. However, there stand numerous arches of marble throughout the ruined city that are inlaid with runes beyond understanding. Those that live and breathe which step through those whose runes glow with faint, iridescent light tread instead into the realm of Dreaming.

Here, there exists no single defining characteristic beyond the visitor's imagination. The landscape sculpts to their individual thoughts, the events to their dreams. From a drab gray nothing to the most brilliant of displays, the senses perceive all that they wish to perceive for all that nothing here truly exists. This far from Tu Vishan, the ability to shape their surroundings is all they have, for Sinbrilee's Dreaming does not have the energy to sustain powers, only the bodies of those that dwell here.

Should two parties near, then the Mesh begins. Dreams, you see, not only can be shared, but they strive to be. These visions sculpted into reality reach out for one another and blend. They begin an exchange akin to a linking of the minds, within which one visitor can learn the other's deepest thoughts. Their limitation is but compatibility, for two minds that cannot flow upon the same current cannot hold the Mesh.

Happiness or loss, the landscape and events play out memories and fancies with a most convincing air. The mood rises and falls with the tide of the visitor's mind, detached as they are from the soothing influence of a great turtle's mind. Nothing here, however, is real; 'constructs' simply fade if taken through the archways and even the greatest scientific minds or tools will reveal nothing of its source. This is an ancient magic of an ancient realm, long practised in concealing itself from any prying.

Note: Due to the fluid and highly individual nature of Dreaming, no official subheaders will be provided in the comments of this post. Feel free to post and thread however you like, so long as the rules of Dreaming are adhered to.

Characters: Javert, Lin, Hoffman, Marius, and ANYONE AT ALL
Date: Javert's awakening through Friday, July 19th
Location: EA-1C and around the city, mostly Earth Sector but he will venture into Fire, Wood, and others
Situation: Javert snaps out of the Malicant-induced mind trap. And doesn't understand a thing anymore. Frustrated with his careening thoughts, he takes a moment or two to catch up with the bulletins, then eventually heads out in search of a way to drain his mind completely. Bars may happen. Also included: "Interview" sessions with Lin and Hoffman and a Marius Interruptus.
Warnings/Rating: References to mind games and severe mental disturbances, references to self-harm, mentions of suicide and suicide attempts, mild language, drinking
Notes: You can choose to knock at Javert's door if you're interested (Just add a new thread), or you can run into him around the city/at a pub. Just specify where/when (he'll be out by evening) and we'll run with it.

Javert has not been seen or heard from for days. )

The police force has a series of leads they need the Foreigners to follow-up on that may (or may not) relate to the entity known as Malicant. Teams 07, 08, and 09 are mobilised next. See the threads in this post for details and contact Alex ([plurk.com profile] reignsdown or the mod account) if you have any questions.

Note: A variety of the options indicate that players can create kedan to fill plot needs in terms of questioning and what have you. These kedan are plot-specific and would not count in the rule-of-tens for NPCs (unless they were referred to after the event; but that is future and this is now).

Also, this is for people that wanted to get their characters involved in the Malicant Investigation Super Team of People Doing Illegal Things and needed to try to pry Malicant information from Iorveth.

Date: May 21, 2013
Location: In and around the city of Keeliai
Situation: The early morning hour brings unexpected devastation to Keeliai and the outlying areas. Emergency response and damage control follows!
Warnings/Rating: Fires, minor violence; please put CW in your subject lines

Satellite Crash Event

Crash Landing | Salvage Party | Shocking Spectres

Questions | Fire Sector | Earth Sector | Metal Sector | Water Sector | Wood Sector | Outlying Areas

The early morning hours of May 21st are broken by the sound of a low lying explosion and a veritable rain of fiery bits and bobs such as molten hot metal and space debris. Those out and about in the very early morning (three hours before dawn) see a meteoric shape streaking overhead and leaving a debris trail. Those interested in following it may find themselves distracted by the debris raining down across Tu Vishan, starting fires and damaging buildings turtlewide. Tu Vishan certainly is, for the great turtle grinds to a halt amidst all this and a trace of concern for the little ones on his shell can be felt in the minds of many.

Characters: Javert, Bean, Aisha, Logan, Sabriel, and YOU
Date: Late April for Bean, Aisha, and Logan; May 14th for Sabriel; TODAY FOR YOU
Location: Earth Sector
Situation: Javert has hired some translators and a well-spoken man to read aloud the entire-gosh-darn-law-code for Keeliai for distribution to all foreigners on Tu Vishan. In light of recent developments revealed by Iorveth, Javert also finally chose to request formal magic lessons from Sabriel. Thread starters in the comments below.
Warnings/Rating: Light sarcasm, gratuitous amounts of morbid humor, Javertesque bluntness and honesty
Notes: I like action tagging, but I am open to absolutely anything you feel like using. I'll follow the leader.

[personal profile] tuvishan
Characters: Tu Vishan and you!
Date: May 11th
Location: All over Keeliai.
Situation: Tu Vishan is attempting to reach out to the foreigner population, with... mixed results?
Warnings/Rating: Should be pretty tame. Will update if this changes.
Notes: This log is set at night, and characters are technically encountering him in their 'dreams'. He may or may not be exerting some subtle supernatural influence to make characters fall asleep, so if your character doesn't require sleep feel free to say he's done something to them. Technically, every creature in Tu Vishan would be sleeping during his little foray, so the streets are uncharacteristically empty.

This is not a predominantly plot-driven log. Tu Vishan is reaching out to people and may surrender plot details if the right questions are asked, but this is mostly part of his ongoing effort to become acquainted with people and the thread direction may stick solely to slice of life, depending on how your character chooses to direct it.

A character's 'dreamscape' should be shaped by their subconscious mind, so feel free to go wild with whatever you'd like. This includes details of their location and what their dream!selves might look like. Tu Vishan will appear to the characters as a young boy, between fourteen and sixteen years of age, and anyone he visits will have extremely peaceful dreams. It's considered a gift and a blessing to have been visited thusly by Tu Vishan, and one can expect good fortune in their futures if they are visited. Characters may also not remember perfect details of these dreams in the morning, or remember them at all. That much is up to you.



Not a ninja, but definitely a turtle. )

Characters: Open to all!
Date: April 23 - 30
Location: Keeliai and all outlying areas
Situation: Tu Vishan experiences a boost in health and thanks each citizen with a calming mood and tropical waters.
Warnings/Rating: None at posting; please note content warnings in subject lines

Everyone wakes on the 23rd with a feeling of peace upon their mind. It's hardly intrusive – reminiscent more of the comfort that comes when one curls up with a favourite blanket fresh out of the dryer. It seems that the actions of the Foreigners -- taken to aid during this time of crisis -- have had an effect and Tu Vishan is offering this in thanks... along with a surge of life and vitality to both the turtle and its citizens.

Date: April 7 - 13, 2013
Location: Atam
Situation: Tu Vishan has made landfall at the port city Atam! See for details.
Warnings/Rating: Please use the comment subject lines to denote content warnings.

You disembark from Tu Vishan to a clean, well-kempt port. There are a fair amount of ships here, and though they're dwarfed in size and scope by Tu Vishan, miraculously none are capsized. Everything is almost militaristically organized, and there are officials posted at intervals along Tu Vishan's docked side checking paperwork as people disembark (said paperwork is official documentation of your character's stay in Keeliai, it will be delivered to your character's suite a few days before they make landfall) It's standard procedure, they explain. There will be a mandatory quarantine period of up to twelve hours for anyone trying to gain access to the portside city of Atamsichar. This quarantine involves your character being stripped, hosed down, their blood tested and a period of isolation while their bloodtests are checked for anything particularly nasty. Rest assured, unless you've been engaging in sex with corpses, you're probably fine.

OOC: Please note that you are still welcome to do open/closed logs with your characters. We've provided this party-style log for those that would like to mingle without worrying about their own logs.

[Actionspam or prose are both acceptable!

Characters will only be admitted into the hall one by one, so there won't be anyone present for anyone else's conversations, and there won't be any 'mingling' in the chamber itself.

By popular demand, we will continue to allow mingling for those waiting for an audience in an antechamber. There is a thread header below to allow for that!]
