lostcompass | ooc intro & the likes!

Hi everyone! Welcome to Eastbound, where nothing goes as planned, and the caravan-chasing bear is taking its sweet time making a cameo.

Without further ado, the game issssssss...

OPEN (FOR BUSINESS?)

Applications nevertheless remain open until 23:59 GMT, 2 April (Friday) for any further newcomers. They can join in on the fun at any point in time!

Please doublecheck your character is on the TAKEN LIST, when you have a second! You are welcome to consider canon any samples you wrote in the Sa-Hareth setting as part of your application. Note: transfer ongoing application sample threads to the Eastbound communities if you want any future tags to them to count towards activity check requirements.

Take a look over our first event: you can now ask any mod questions linked to it, or ask any questions to your black little hearts' content.

Oh, and here's our first OPEN EVENT LOG! But feel free to start up your own, or debut the IC network community @

eastbound.

CHARACTER:
CANON:
ELEVATOR PITCH FOR YOUR CHARACTER:
ICE BREAKER ROUNDS:
i. Here your character is, minding their own or someone else's business in a tavern of the Sa-Hareth merchants' arena, when in comes a particularly persistent middle-aged woman with an eerily trademark haircut, insisting your character should give her prompt, first-class and no-nonsense service now, or she'll speak to their manager. How does your character react?

ii. A weirdly hapless humanoid undead that thinks itself a dog keeps following your character (home). What does your character name it?

ANY EVENT PLANS SO FAR? generally, or feel free to link to your event plotting comment, if you have one!

okay so also a man interested in how the undead work here, come, speak with him, blood isn't how his abilities function but it certainly can be a powerful immediate draw

maybe they can. braid her hair in such a way to cover her ears too, or use some kind of head band or wrap, hmm hmm

Merrill is far more interested in finding a way to link this version of necromancy to blood magic so that she can use it in other ways... There's definitely some heeby jeeby moral quandaries around it in her canon so it will be interesting to explore!

It's hard to tell but she does have a bunch of braids in her hair already...! It's probably too short to really cover those honkin' ears. Maybe some cute hats! Or just a dirty cloak in the meantime.

It's winter there has to be some kind of knit cap existing around here, are we going to bring beanies into style in ye olde ancient fantasy zombie apocalypse, perhaps

Hahaha yeah, it all slots into the realms of Demonic Cultivation so he's interested on various levels but also those of prrrrobably don't turn this toward the living if we can help it thanks, and all these more aware Anurr forces are Big Thinking Face from him (though the energy of the U-forces is of more interest for what they feel like deep down)

That's Merrill for you. The new local 'influencer'. Time to turn the network into a tiktok... Have you also heard of the subtle chainmail sideboob, followers? New faux-chainmail patterns available now, just click the link on her Instagram story!

Ahhh demons. Merrill will talk for days about demons, and pleasantly! Yes we will do some mashing. She will continue to be testing her magic constantly for the next few days until it works, so her going a little TOO HARD on that on the third day of frustration could always lead to something crazy! IF you know the canon, I'm sure you can imagine possibilities. Edit: lol meant to say if, that is an important distinction.

Why are you exposing anything but topboob what the heck kind of styles do you all favour!!!

Haaaaaahahah yeah I'm DA2 familiar (and all DA series familiar, lore and also contradictory lore is All We Gots, Cheryl) and yeah I'm.

Okay so Merrill? How about we not. Not attract... attention... with what your frustration meltdown might achieve, do you want to go touch a few resentful spirits? Just say hello to them we can do that
