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.

cloud strife / final fantasy vii remake
october 2022
however, interacting with other people has definitely softened his outer core a little, and he's cautiously speaking to others and opening up, even just a little, to be able to at least joke around with them. he took to the soulidarity app with more of a purpose of finding more jobs, so to speak, and received some interesting propositions, such as becoming one's guard and joining one's adventure guild.
for the (mod) event, he lost his head a little with the lantern and definitely went into rage mode, finally encouraged by his own twisted memories and his shadow mocking him, and wanted to kill puck. he went to the festival and played harvest hunt, where he made pretty good prey, despite wanting to be the predator. finally, he also tried to help with the clean up after the horseman, ensuring that wounded people at the very least got some treatment, though obviously not really by his hand.
overall while he's opening himself up slightly to others, he's still pretty guarded at this point. he doesn't really want to share things, especially since he's confused about himself, confused about his shadow, and instead is focusing on what he considers more "tangible" like work and income.
(the same ooc note: the latter half of the month really spiraled out of control for me irl, so i'm only able to come back now and get back to my threads, now that things are better under control! however, i completely understand if that constitutes a warning for this month. )
november 2022
cloud's started experiencing the effects of the 'unrequited love' hanahaki and has been coughing a little, just a few petals here and there. he denies that anything is wrong for now, because he doesn't want to seem weak. he went to the gallows, escaped once by starting a fight with joel, helped mavis fight a guard to get free, got caught again, and escaped a second time thanks to aerith.
