MOD-NOTE; 19th {what might have been}

[taintedkaen.livejournal.com]

Tomorrow's event is a little complicated, and we've been getting plenty of questions about it.

Here's the basics;

Q. Are the characters affected aware of what's going on?
A. NO, they are totally unaware. However, being in the city will be normal to them, although the dramatic change that happened to them will feel totally normal, too. They will remember everything the day after, and they can reflect upon that as you wish.

Q. Are unaffected characters aware of the change?
A. YES, they are. They can tell that something happened to their friends/family/lover/etc.

Q. What if the character is dead?
A. They will LOOK DEAD. Think zombies here. Freshly-made bodies with bullet holes, cuts, scratches, missing limbs, etc (through, if you want decaying skin or whatever, go ahead - all up to the muns). They will look as they did when they died/were dead. Gruesome, yes, but some people like that stuff. As for characters becoming dead due to this curse, it is only a temporary change. They will not remain dead after it wears off, if they were alive the day before.

Any further questions, feel free to ask. For the most part, this stuff is up to you guys.

EDIT: They're not mindless zombies here, people. They just look the part.

Also, the "death" route is OPTIONAL. It's up to the players to decide.

Thanks for making that much clearer!

[taintedkaen.livejournal.com]

Had to be done - it's a little more complicated. X)

[medic-assistant.livejournal.com]

It's raining outside, and my heater isn't on. XD ♥ Mmm, porns~

No problem! It's what we're here for~

>: I'm worried about doing Lloyd's What Might Have Been because it'll spoil some ToS stuff for you. ;-; So uh... DON'T LOOK AT LLOYD, K?

Also, Axel's just gonna up and disappear since Nobodies aren't technically supposed to exist. I'm worried someone might post like, 'wtf, where did Axel go?' and people will interpret it as I dropped him or something. D: Should I make a note in Axel's journal that he is teh gone for the day?

I'll skip by his entry, promise!

That'd be good. X)

Q. What if the character is dead?
A. They will LOOK DEAD. Think zombies here.

This is the best, I love it >D

[katoustheshit.livejournal.com]

If the character is dead, would they have to look dead or would you be able to change something that happened to them while they were alive?

[taintedkaen.livejournal.com]

You don't have to take that path if you don't want to. I know several people are doing the dead thing.

[katoustheshit.livejournal.com]

XD All right. Thank ye. ♥

Hey, so I was looking at what sakurabubbles was going to do, but I'd really prefer Nami not going MIA for a day.

Is it okay if I just backtrack and make her a very COM!Nami? (Technically, my might have been is "if Marluxia hadn't died." With that, she's just gonna be very COMish.) :D?

[taintedkaen.livejournal.com]

If it's a "what might have been" thing, sure. It normally revolves around important events in the character's life that would have a caused a "branch," so if that applies, go ahead. X) I haven't played COM, forgive me.

[natty-boy.livejournal.com]

Double checking on the dead thing, as my poor Natty is dead. XD

He'd be totally unaware that he's appearing that way, then? With bleeding gashes and all? So it'd be just like, "Doo dee doo, hello! How are you? Bleeding? What are you talking about?"

I just want to make sure. XD 'Cause this sort of affects two other characters as well, Nat appearing this way.

Thank you~ :)

[taintedkaen.livejournal.com]

No, they'll know, but it won't seem like... very shocking or OMFG to them. Since they'll be like, lol yeah I'm dead, s'up. :D

[natty-boy.livejournal.com]

HEE OKAY. XD

This is fantastical! It's already the 19th for me here and I'm at school, wahahaha so I think I shall post now. >)

However, being in the city will be normal to them

If they're living with someone they would have never met "If...", would they be all like, "Hey, guy, what are you doing in my apartment?"

[taintedkaen.livejournal.com]

Yup!

[ex-janvalent852.livejournal.com]

Are the dead going to act like George Romero zombies?

[chrnologic.livejournal.com]

I actually don't want to play either of the characters who I'm going to have be affected as ZOMBIES.
Well. Maybe Kuja.

I wanted to make Chrno just be all OMG DEMONIC!!! like he might have turned out. Not gruesomely dead. Is that cool with y'all?

[taintedkaen.livejournal.com]

It's all up to the players on if they decide to make their characters dead or not? It's just an option. Go ahead and do what you what., as long as it falls under something that "would have been."

[chrnologic.livejournal.com]

AH. Gotcha. Thanks for clearing it up for me. ^___^

[antichristsmile.livejournal.com]

Question~!! Would the character remember the life they'd been leading in the city? Like... I wanna play Fuuma remembering all the crap he did to Kamui while having reverted back to old!Fuuma, if that's okay? :/

[taintedkaen.livejournal.com]

Of course.

[antichristsmile.livejournal.com]

YAY. *love and lotsa cookies* X3!
