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! )

NPCs?

[he frowns at the unfamiliar word, but hey, at least it's a good sign that he found someone useful, right?]

[tsunderator]

Non-Player Characters. The shop owners and stuff. They look human and everything but they're just programs. If you ask them questions, they only have a programmed set of replies and blank out if you ask them something they don't know.

[ He could go on about their efficiency, lack of budget since they don't need to be paid or fed, and what a pain in the ass they could be, but he'll leave that be for now. ]

[lavenderglasses]

Programs? [he frowns, already disliking this pattern and how ignorant it makes him look, but it's hardly his fault that the guy is using piles of weird phrases and made up words. better to learn something new now than be oblivious when it matters.]

[tsunderator]

You know, computers.

[ A glance; and an annoyed "tch". ]

No, you don't do you? You're from a world that doesn't have that sort of technology, I guess.

[lavenderglasses]

[he scowls at that tone, rolling his eyes.]

Evidently not. You know about what's going on here, then?

[tsunderator]

[ Hey man, he knows there's people from all different kinds of worlds and timelines, but it doesn't change his assumption of what's common knowledge in his own. ]

Guess I would, seeing as I'm the one that programmed all this. And? What do you wanna know?

[lavenderglasses]

How do with get home? [like it's the most obvious thing in the world. because. it kinda is.]

[tsunderator]

You don't.

[ Equally as exasperated; do you think they'd go through all the trouble to pull you in and test out their game to let you leave the same day? No way man. ]

Some people tend to disappear, and others are chosen at random to leave, but we haven't quite worked out the kinks there yet.

[lavenderglasses]

[yyyyep, that is earning you the dirtiest look of the century right there.]

Are you seriously trying to claim responsibility for all this and then saying you just can't reverse it? And I'm meant to believe that?

[tsunderator]

I'm more than happy not claiming responsibility for it, yet here everyone is at my desk with all the regular questions. I'm just an employee, okay?

[lavenderglasses]

Then who should I be asking, hmm?
