event one | Happy St. Patrick's D-- wait what?

[tsunderator]

CHARACTERS: Any and all!
DATE: April 1st~7th
RATING: PG at the worst, I suppose!
SUMMARY: Perhaps it's an April Fool's joke-- surely Saint Patrick's Day has already passed. And yet clovers rain down and the fountains run green regardless. But it's a nice welcome to The World regardless, so enjoy it while it lasts!


There's gold banners strung from rooftop to rooftop, catching the light of the eternally-setting sun and reflecting it every which way. The ground's already covered in a generous amount of fallen shamrocks, with no end in sight. They're in your hair, on your clothes, in your food-- everywhere!

The main fountain (as well as the smaller second fountain in the alchemy district) is running with fizzing green soda, glass mugs lined up along the edges invitingly. New characters will receive one of two items-- in the first half of the week, they'll be awarded a limited edition golden weapon to suit their class, adorned in emeralds. In the latter half (for later applicants), they'll receive a leprechaun hat. The size is entirely up to the player, so it can range from a cute, small hat a la lolita style, or a big floppy hat, or a dapper silk top hat.

Have a look around, meet others, and enjoy the Irish foods offered for free at NPC shops to go with the soda. All items earned are to stay!



There's even a young silver-haired GM dolled up in green silks at the quest kiosk available for questions, although he doesn't look particularly friendly. His body language says to Stay Away, despite his location right in the upper left corner of the town center.

( ooc | Please remember to tag your characters properly, and have fun! )

Uh. Well, the thing is, I don't know. I don't see any of my friends here, and I certainly don't recognize this place, and --

Wait, how did this become "we"?

[uwawa]

Oh no! Are you lost too? [ do you see this look of deep sympathy? she knows what it's like, you can talk to her. she may never understand you though. ]

[uwawa]

...you don't want me to come with you? Am I not helpful anymore? B-but how will I get home then?

[greatcleavage]

[Oooh, hit him right in the alignment.]

Hold on, hold on, I didn't say that! You don't have a place to stay, then?

[uwawa]

Um... usually I just stand in the hall. You don't have to save a room for me!

[greatcleavage]

I don't have a room myself, I don't --

-- they make you stand in the hall? First of all, who's they?

I might have considered doing it for Elan, but I never... actually did it...

[uwawa]

Everyone~! They let me stay with them, aren't they nice? The Prince is really nice...

Wa, I hope everyone's having fun at the party...

[ she gets a bit wistful as thinks out loud. ]

[greatcleavage]

They're not very nice if they make you stay in the hall instead of a room. You're pushing minimum rolls on the starting age table as it is!

[Sigh.]

Okay, then we need to find a place to stay.

1/2

[uwawa]

No, they were really nice! Everyone of them!

[uwawa]

...huh? [ woah, you just said a whole lot of confusing things there. ]

But I'm as old as I've always been... [ she turns to look behind her as if she expects to see a smaller version of herself there. ]

Viki? That's not right, when did I see her last?

Oh! So you're going to take care of me this time?

[greatcleavage]

[Well that sure sounds ominous.]

I can't just leave you out here alone. You definitely seem short a couple of ranks in Survival. Or Profession(taking care of yourself).

[uwawa]

I do? I wonder if I lost it when I sneezed.

Is it important? [ it doesn't seem like she lost anything crucial, she checks the back of her hands. She even still has her runes. ]

Oh...maybe I should give him the mirror...but-- Hm... If I give it away when I'm not sure Viki would yell at me.

[greatcleavage]

Yes, most people would consider being able to take care of yourself important.

[Roy mentally digs up his list of "Things Not To Do Or Say Around Elan" and adds "or this girl" to the end of the heading.]

[uwawa]

I'm really lucky then~! There's always someone there to help me. [ have a delighted little clap. ]

Oh but if I can help you then tell me, okay? I'll do my best!

[greatcleavage]

I'm sure I'm setting myself up, but what can you do?

[uwawa]

I specialise in teleportation! So if you want to go somewhere I can take you there really fast!

[greatcleavage]

Teleportation?!

[That's so useful he can't actually believe it.]

You're a sorcerer?

[uwawa]

Um. I'm Viki. [ she's not Levi, he's a sorcerer...or something. ]

[greatcleavage]

Yes. We covered that. I mean, you took levels in sorcerer. You can't possibly be a wizard...

[uwawa]

Oh, I'm too stupid to be a sorcerer. [ the way she says it sounds like she's quoting something someone told her. ]

I just teleport mostly. And um. [ glancing at the back of her left hand. ] Oh, I still have my cyclone rune too.

[greatcleavage]

What? Wizards use Intelligence. Sorcerers use Charisma. The two aren't related. How do you teleport without a casting class?

For that matter, what's a cyclone rune?

[uwawa]

[ you... are saying something and it means something but she doesn't know what. A long silent stare, she is trying to think but nothing is happening. She shakes her head a bit. ]

I can teleport because I have the Blinking Rune. [ well, she's the only one that seems capable of using it to teleport outside of battle but she's not going to mention that because...it doesn't occur to her that it makes a difference. ]

Um...you don't use runes? [ she holds out both her hands palm down. the image is subtle but it's possible to make out two images. ]

[greatcleavage]

[He leaned to look curiously, hand to his chin. This explained a whole lot.]

No, I don't use runes. I'm a fighter. My sword is magical, but that just makes it hit harder and more accurately.

So you don't have a class level at all? Not even one of the why-would-anyone-take-this ones like commoner?

[uwawa]

Eh? But everyone uses runes I thought. Not all runes are magic runes... wait, does that mean there aren't any runes here?

[ ...it finally occurs to her that she is nowhere near anywhere she's ever been. ] Wow, I must be really lost this time.

[ but it doesn't really occur to her to worry. ]

[greatcleavage]

Some spells use runes, but not all of them. And I attack things with my sword, drawing on years of training and experience to do so. Why would I need a rune to do that?

...and don't you have a family or something you should be getting back to? Or at least a home? Or a castle, apparently.
