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:

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: Wrathion | Warcraft

IS YOUR CHARACTER ABLE TO USE OR PERCEPTIVE OF
TIME TRAVEL: He's logically aware of and has been involved in time travel, but cannot personally wield time magic -- someone else cast and he was just along for the ride. Because he's been through it, and is magically sensitive (and spends time around other bronze/time dragons), he might get the prickly familiarity if it happened around him again?
ILLUSIONS: Yes, he uses illusions, and has in the past actually destroyed an illusion to show the real form of the thing behind it.
BLOOD MAGIC: He doesn't specifically use blood magic, but he's sensitive to magic and could probably recognise something spooky was being cast? I'd gauge not enough to know it was blood magic instinctively over any of the other 500 times of bad magic in warcraft, but enough to know it wasn't Other Good Magic? Malleable on this, NBD. We got plenty of magic.

MEMORY STATUS:

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

WHAT IS ONE OF YOUR CHARACTER'S BIGGEST REGRETS? Rejecting Anduin Wrynn's offer of help in the temple of the White Tiger. Thus... you know, going along with the plan of a mad bronze dragon who created an alternate timeline despite Anduin pleading with him to listen to sense. Wrathion thought it would all go well! It, er, didn't, and Kairoz died and then it all started a war so. You know. On the scale of things, didn't live up to his hopes.

This was part of a slightly overcomplicated time travel plan, and I don't know how much detail you need or if really 'he just didn't listen to advice and then caused a big war and his friend was angry and later punched him in the face' is enough. Luckily this did happen in a novel though, so if the 'moment' is relevant for Vibes I can just copy/paste an extract.

LIVING ASSIGNMENTS: RNG is fine!

That works for regret detail, thanks!
