July Event Details


You wake up in your bed.

The sun is streaming through your window, your alarm is buzzing next to your ear. Another night, another dream - but now it's time to face reality. You sigh as you trundle through your morning routine.

Nothing ever happens in this town. As far as you're concerned, everything in Nyoi-cho is the same as always. You've always lived here. It's not a big town, so you pretty much know everybody here. Sure, sometimes you get lost in your own little world - but that's all just pretend! You know that your real life is here, rooted to the mundane little world that is Nyoi-cho.

Although... You have to admit, sometimes things seem a bit odd when you really think about it. People go missing on occasion, and the sleeping sickness is getting worse than ever now, spreading like a plague over the town.

Still... This town has been peaceful for as long as anyone can remember. Surely that won't change anytime soon, right?

Life is but a dream.

Starting on the 8th, the characters will wake up in their houses... but not their magi houses. The houses they wake in are normal, non-magical, mundane houses. That's not the only change upon waking up - the characters will not remember their identity as magi. They won't even remember where they came from, believing that they are normal everyday people who were born and raised here in Nyoi-cho.

This is going up early so that you can all draft backstories. NPC parents, siblings, stories - your history with your fellow magi!

An Unexpected Visitor

From the shroud that dulls the minds of the magi, an unexpected source pulls them from the darkness?!


In Summation...

» You no longer remember your life as a magi. You believe that you've been here your whole life.
» Create backstory with your fellow magi! For all intents and purposes, this is an AU event!
» New characters can either opt in to this event or can arrive as normal.
» If you need to hiatus this month, your characters will fall victim to the "sleeping sickness" and will reawaken once your hiatus ends.
» Nightmares can still occur. If you wish to have your character go nightmare, please contact the mods VIA PM to discuss the option!
» The event will start on the 8th.

If you have any further questions about this event, please leave them here.

For clarification sake, this event applies to everyone, correct?

QUESTION NUMBER TWO THEN

Would injuries from their time as a magi happen to carry over?

I offer Madoka as the happy go lucky family member who is helpful and kind and bakes slightly burnt cookies and helps with homework.

Who is her family? Everyone. Even if it makes no sense, because she's unofficially adopting everyone. She herself currently lives with some classmates, having transferred here from Mitakihara.

Is it all right if the horse hound follows Diarmuid into this as his perfectly normal and perfectly large puppy?

Cassandra Marko is your average girl in most respects. She enjoys art class and running track, she doesn't have a lot of self confidence though and tends to err on the side of humility.

She loves comic book superheroes though which makes her a little weird by traditional standards. So basically Sandy will be your average geeky, awkward pre-teen.

Anyone want to be part of her family or social links?

Azula

[personal profile] makeadragonwannaretire 2016-06-27 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
I think it would be particularly amusing if Azula had like...a perfectly happy and healthy family life here and we see how that might have changed the woman she became.

Like she's still talented and smart but maybe she actually has some compassion and humility.

So instead of being the bitchy rich girl that everyone would expect, maybe she's kind of a goody good. Like the kind who would run for class president or get a job as soon as she was old enough to build on her resume.

What are your thoughts?

SO LET'S GET PLANNING!

Bonnie is living with her Grandma and her older sister! Who just happens to look just as cute and friendly as she is. She's precious and precocious as heck, and happens to attend school. She's not got the best record, since she's tardy once in a while. Finding her way to school can be tricky sometimes!

Ryoko lives on her own-- her parents are overseas for work, and she acts as the older sister/motherly type to her friends, as expected. She's got a part-time job at a nice restaurant in town, and acts as class rep in school. She hasn't joined a club thanks to her job, but she's still able to keep up with her added work.

Ichimatsu lives on his own, in between jobs and out of work for the most part. He's often seen around town, sitting on benches and generally, looking like he doesn't belong there. Of course, he's made a few acquaintances in his time in Nyoi-cho, some of whom are childhood friends of his, or friends of friends. Et cetera. He's got a cat, and they're usually inseparable. For the most part, despite his pessimistic nature, he's still glad to have a home there.

If anyone wants to slide in as friends/prospective roommates/et cetera lemme know! Even rivals, in some cases!

Hey hey~ How about Azula work with Ryoko at the restaurant? That seems like the sort of thing a good upstanding girl would do.
justoutrunyou: (Duck)

[personal profile] justoutrunyou 2016-06-27 04:57 am (UTC)(link)
Oh! One weird thing about Cassandra though? She has a pet duck.

She claims a friend found it when it was a baby and the two of them raised it together. Then her friend moved away and let her keep the duck.
loveedition: (that's how kids are these days.)

[personal profile] loveedition 2016-06-27 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
Good good co-workers. Ryoko'd be glad to have some good help, especially in case their supervisor gets mad at them for chatting. :T

[personal profile] makeadragonwannaretire 2016-06-27 05:04 am (UTC)(link)
Ugh, so rude. I mean it's not like he owns us right? We're hard working girls he should respect us more.

Meanwhile regular Azula would have just verbally destroyed him and gone back to chatting.

What is the legal drinking age in Nyoi-cho?

I need to know for reasons.

That's a shame.

You've made Sieglinde a criminal, I hope you're proud of yourself.

Re: Azula

[personal profile] oniondaughter 2016-06-27 05:49 am (UTC)(link)
Not gonna lie, i love this idea. Especially the thought of how that might effect her when everyone snaps out of it for this event.
makeadragonwannaretire: (Do I really look like a girl with a plan)

[personal profile] makeadragonwannaretire 2016-06-27 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
Wonderful! Would you like to be a member of her family? Or perhaps some other social relation?

God she's going to be so conflicted when it all comes rushing back.

Sieglinde is a high school dropout who works at her family brewery in town. Despite the stereotypes of dropouts, she's actually quite a clever, hardworking teenager - it's just that she's always wanted to run the family business and that's not something she actually needs a diploma to do.

That being said, though, she's not running it yet - and in the meantime she's a kind and friendly girl, more than willing to make friends with the other kids her age. When she's not working, she's often seen at the park, at the local teenage hangouts or working out in the makeshift gym she's got in her backyard (ie her dad's old lifting bench & weights, and a set of hand-barbells she spent her hard-earned hourly wage on). Strength is pretty important to her - you can't spend all day hauling around barrels of booze without some muscle mass, after all.

Despite not being in high school anymore, she's still pretty popular with the kids her age. Mostly because she's got the hookup if you want to get your hands on some liquor.

Lately she's been hanging out a lot with that snarky Lalonde girl. There are some rumors about those two, but nothing confirmed.


Also, lastly: Her family's most famous brew (really, the only thing they make that's worth a damn) is called Siegbräu and it comes with the tagline "Strong Enough to Wake the Dead." It'll knock you on your ass.

I'm down for either! I kind of already had Linde's family planned, but if you want to work Azula in there somewhere I'd be more than happy to have them be sisters or cousins or something.

Azula can be the over achieving half-sister that looks nothing like Sieglinde at all>

Alternatively, they can just know each other socially! Whatever works best for you.
makeadragonwannaretire: (nomnomnom)

[personal profile] makeadragonwannaretire 2016-06-27 06:48 am (UTC)(link)
Aw I totally love the backstory you have for her!

How about let's say they were close friends in school. Azula just graduated but she still spends plenty of time around. She probably nagged Linde about her dropout behavior but still tried to help by taking notes for her and such.

[personal profile] oniondaughter 2016-06-27 06:58 am (UTC)(link)
I like that! Sieglinde's a smart young woman, so she'll definitely listen to Azula try to explain the things she's missing out on - even if she'll be very adamant about being ok about dropping out.

She didn't fail out of school, Azula! She's learning a trade, it's very different!
