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! )

[Irish? Hm, would the others like this kind of food? Maybe when she gets back, she'll start looking.]

I haven't heard of Japan; where is it, and where is Ire? I know some people I think would like this.

[inhearts]

You don't know? Well, Japan is a small country -- on Earth. The Irish -- Ireland is, um... [ She has to think; geography wasn't really her best point. ] A small island in Europe. [ ...Probably. Curiously, she glances over. ]

If you don't mind me asking, where are you from, ah-- Right, I forgot! My name is Arisato Minako. You are?

[mercuryangel]

[Earth? That's... definitely not Weyard. Is this another world, or something?]

Mia, from Imil.

[inhearts]

It's nice to meet you, Mia-chan! I've never heard of Imil though, what it's like there?

[mercuryangel]

It's cold most of the year. I often had my hands full keeping everyone healthy.

[inhearts]

Oh, are you a doctor?

[mercuryangel]

More like a cleric, actually.

[inhearts]

A cleric? From a church?

[mercuryangel]

Well, sort of.

[ooc:The games are really ambiguous about that.]

[inhearts]

[ Well, her knowledge of clerics is -- ]

Does that mean you can use healing spells?

[mercuryangel]

[She closes her eyes briefly. Psynergy is supposed to be a secret, she remembers, but if they think it's magic, then...]

Yes.

[inhearts]

Ah, that's really cool! Magic, real magic doesn't exist where I come from.

[mercuryangel]

[A world without Psynergy? Well, she supposes it's possible; after all Alchemy is supposed to remain sealed...]

Waking up here must have been more of a shock for you than it was for me, then...

[inhearts]

It was surprising at first but I'm adjusting well! This is just like a MMO, though I've never played any before.

[mercuryangel]

...I see. Someone told me that this place was a game...

...but wouldn't that take very powerful er... magic to run? That doesn't make sense.

[ooc: poor minako, neglecting her Hermit link... oh wait it's different for her, huh? Well, at least her homeroom teacher isn't crushing on her.]

[inhearts]

A very powerful computer, maybe! But this is pretty advanced VR.

[ She gets a link with an awesome schoolmate instead :)b ]
