And the Arc VI destination is...

[groundrules]

Hello, hello! Eid Mubarak if you celebrate & happy Friday if you don't! Voting for our Arc VI destination has now closed and, with 23 votes in favour and 7 against, the winner by a waterslide is... The Sunken.

All hail our moist overlord.

Indicatively, Arc VI should last roughly 10 weeks and will kick off after part II of our train ride mystery — for which you will get further details on 24 April, along with a list of clues uncovered and shared ICly by their discoverers so far. There will be a test drive event & an app round after the train journey.

To help prepare your character's triage and entrance into the Arc VI moist madness, please optionally fill out the following at some point over the next two weeks:

This will be temporary. Please pick your level of comfort with the memory jumbling from the below: <b>1. Memories replaced to think they are a village native.</b> <b>2. Memories confused to know they are themselves, but think they arrived and decided to stay in the village some time ago.</b> <b>3. Memories unchanged, but they have a deep sense of rightness about staying in the village (for now).</b> <b><small>WHAT IS ONE OF YOUR CHARACTER'S BIGGEST REGRETS</small>?</b> Just one, please! <b><small>LIVING ASSIGNMENTS</small>:</b> do you want a mod-RNGed living unit with other characters for your character, or will you make your own arrangements?

CHARACTER | CANON: Jon Snow | Game of Thrones

IS YOUR CHARACTER ABLE TO USE OR PERCEPTIVE OF
TIME TRAVEL: No.
ILLUSIONS: Smart enough to see through them if there's the least hint of falsity, but otherwise, no.
BLOOD MAGIC: Hm. Jon is most likely alive through acts of blood magic, so he might have an innate tie to them. He's definitely alert to blood magic and finds it distasteful, but there's no magical reason he should be able to "sense" it or anything like that.

MEMORY STATUS:

Character memories will be confused or replaced on arrival, but recover at night. This will be temporary. Please pick your level of comfort with the memory jumbling from the below:

3. Memories unchanged, but they have a deep sense of rightness about staying in the village (for now).

If the vote is tied or close, I'd also be ok with option 2.

WHAT IS ONE OF YOUR CHARACTER'S BIGGEST REGRETS? His commitment to the Night's Watch meant that he could not help his family as they were scattered, at war, etc. Didn't ride to war with Robb, couldn't help or protect Arya/Sansa/Bran/Rickon, etc.

LIVING ASSIGNMENTS: I don't mind but I'd prefer Jon be stuck with his girlfriend. Other people can be randomized, no prob. The only issue with this RNG assigned roommates kind of thing is that most often, in games, everyone kind of ignores it and just threads with whoever anyway, and it leaves most people with a blank space where housemate interactions should have been. Once in a while you do get good CR out of it, but in my experience, that is not the norm.

No, don't worry - it's not a vote on memories, each character gets their own preference!

Thanks about the bold tag!
