ACTIVITY CHECK


ACTIVITY CHECK


Actions have consequences.

You’ll be required to link a minimum of two (2) threads, as well as a brief summary of what your character’s been up to. No comment count required! Regarding summaries, a few lines are perfectly fine! We’re mostly looking for clues in order to adequately track your character’s ambitions/intentions/deeds so that we can 1. dole out suitable consequences/curses/boons/etc (immediately following AC or at random), and 2. observe their evolution until the inevitable end. Will it be Ascension, or annihilation?

We realize that this can be extremely subjective as far as good and evil go, so to keep things simple, we'll have to adjust the consequences based on the character's overall intent. You'll be notified ICly or OOcly as soon as they come into effect (which might not necessarily happen right after AC or every round), depending on the action and what the outcome entails. Examples of consequences include, but are absolutely not limited to: a sojourn in jail, physical transformations, valuable artifacts, a harrowing, a permanent Spark, a power fully restored, a loss of any kind, privileges, information, etc. Consequences may not be doled out every time, but keep in mind that every action leads your character closer to Oblivium regardless, or Ascension. We'll keep track.

  • Regarding threads, we accept links from TDMs, inboxes, logs, the netherwork, and Soulidarity. You may submit threads from up to two months prior to the current month if you're still tagging them, but you can’t submit the same thread twice.

  • Subthreads from a top-level or a catch-all log can be used as separate proofs for AC! As for bonuses, we'll be limiting submissions of subthreads to one (1) per round.

  • Additionally, we simply ask that you don’t exclusively tag inboxes and/or castmates, repeatedly submit network-style comment spam, or drop your threads as soon as you pass AC. If a consistent pattern occurs, we’ll reach out to the player and discuss with them before issuing a warning.

  • A warning is cleared after you’ve successfully passed AC two months in a row.

  • If extenuating circumstances prevent you from playing or notifying us in time, a retroactive hiatus will be available to you once every 6 months. Otherwise, to avoid a warning, please notify us at least one week before the end of the month!

  • Regarding bonuses, which are an optional perk, we accept links from TDMs, inboxes, logs, and the netherwork. Please note that each thread must have at least 8 comments from you, and can’t be threads you’ve submitted for AC. Each bonus thread equals 5 points. You may also submit threads from up to two months prior to the current month if you're still tagging them, but you can’t submit the same thread twice. You can collect your points and spend them whenever you wish, and no more than one reward per round will be granted.


  • REWARDS

    ► Trinket = 15 points
    ► Spark = 25 points
    ► Artifact = 30 points
    ► Boon = 40 points

    A boon is, essentially, a (reasonable!) wish granted or an item requested from home! A trinket is much lesser than an artifact in power, and would also have to eventually be soul-forged in order to last.



    * you may check-in anytime during the active month, so long as you do so by the last day at 11:59 PM EST. simply follow the example below!

    Short Summary: Ichigo has basically been a Depression Lump in his time so far, occasionally pulled out of it by moments of Being Useful To Other People. He helped out during the event, fought the Horseman (badly) and yelled at a girl (loudly, angrily) for bleeding on bones during the lantern hunt, but the bulk of his social interaction this month was on the Soulidarity app. Millennials, amirite?

    Short Summary: Ichigo got in a bit of a fight with his soulmate right off the bat, which lead to this discussion which kinda kicked his ass into gear. Generally, he started to kind of crawl out of his Depression Mire.

    One of the Quincy from his world showed up, someone he's not terribly fond of, all things considered and that threw him for a bit of a loop. He doesn't trust the guy, but they have a tentative peace treaty... woof.

    He got arrested/jailed, which lead to him cooling his heels both with Jugram and Joel, and then getting a bit jailbreak-y. Once again, most of his reaching out to others has been via texting — partly due to lingering depression, but partly because he sees it as his Duty to be out fighting things in the Shadowlands, taking down monsters and just generally doing what he sees as 'protecting' people, and he largely wants to do that by himself because He Is A Loner. Of course, with his current curse... that means he's honestly just been talking to his weird, giggling yak-back out in the middle of nowhere.

    (Exception: he invited Noctis along to go farm a star shard... results TBA...)

    He's still vaguely trying to keep the Shinigami thing under wraps (badly) but a few people (Fukawa, Hibiki, Sasuke) have now Seen Him Fight, so that's probably not going to stay private for long. He's sort of torn between how relevant it is to hide, given the fact he does believe that he's dead, so... being a shinigami/having reiatsu is just par for the course with him.

    He and Jonas are now tentatively friends? Shh, this counts.

    The Good: Mostly out of his funk, trying to Be Useful To Others.
    The Bad: nothing really this month, he's been a Good Boy.

    Short Summary: Sakura has hit the ground running in her first month! She's started a clinic down by the docks, and has been giving lessons to a few people on basic first aid. She helped out during the headless horseman ordeal with a couple folks, and did a bodyswap with Sasuke which was NOT her ideal.

    Good things: helping people, doing some minor healing, etc.
    Bad things: she's lying about where she's from/what she's capable of, she's been caustic and a bit abrasive with folks, her shadow is team 'manipulate everyone and get away with it'.

    Short Summary: Sakura has had a busy month! She kicked it off asking for blood donors on the Netherwork, and had a few people take her up on that! She's also continually asking people about their experiences with soulmates, which lead to some interesting discussions (namely with Keith and Fukawa). She's working on helping Shalem with managing his chronic disease, and is helping D create synthetic blood pills, which was also rolled up in a very Fraught conversation about soulmates. Whoops!

    She's also healed a few folks (notably: Sylvain, Cedrik) and is once again wanting to commit violence against Felix, which is just her raison d'être now. She and Aspen are teaming up so their collective knowledge in healing and herbalism can be put to use to help the other Restless, and Cloud very kindly helped her get some supplies for her clinic, which lead to a nuanced discussion on the naming schemes for little stuffed toys...

    During the jailbreak, she busted in and wound up terrifying Fukawa, rescuing Felix (against her better judgement...) and basically being An Ninja. Also she and Fukawa are... maybe? friends now??? (FRIENDSHIP?)

    RE: Castmates, she sort of tried to gently manipulate Naruto and Sasuke into being soulmates because she's concerned about them both and is pretty sure if their Shadows were to parade around unchecked it'd be a Problem for Stygia. What's that they say about roads to hell? when will this girl learn she shouldn't manipulate her friends? literally never.

    the good: helped out a bunch, didn't kill any guards during Jailgate.
    the bad: she's been struggling with a short temper, overworking herself to the point of exhaustion because she's trying to outpace her shadow, is still lying about what she's capable of to most of the people she knows (although she confided in D, oop). Her patience is starting to fray and the odds of her snapping on someone and reaming them out for a completely minor offense is... high.

    Total amount of points: 40 points! Apologies for the edit, I somehow completely missed that we could submit more threads with the new AC rules.

    If possible, I'd like to restore her healing if that's too much of an ask all at once I can probably go thru the wiki and find a specific technique to restore, it's... ninjas... they're terrible and OP and dumb.

    So Naruto is pretty vague about its healing techniques overall (mostly bc the manga is named NARUTO and not SAKURA...) but I crawled through the wikia and I think maybe this one? I know it's pretty vague and generic, but I figure bc it will still be reliant on her chakra (which will still be cutting in and out as per setting nerfs) it might be within the rules.

    What do you guys think?
