MAY STATE OF THE GAME & ARRIVALS

[etrayamods]

⏵ May State of the Game and Arrivals ⏴ Hello, Etrayans! As previously mentioned, we have changed our player cap to ten new players per application round. This will be in effect until we hit under 60 players. With May's round of applications, we're currently at 78 players. Given our new player limitations, we will be moving our TDMs to every three months. Our next TDM will go up on June 13th, and the one after that will go up on September 19th. To make sure players can keep TDM threads as game canon, we're going to be changing our TDM formatting a little! This will become more clear when our next TDM goes live. Mingle logs will continue going up during months when we do not have a TDM. These will be simplistic logs with a couple of prompts to play with. As a friendly reminder - Etraya's network does not have private filters! If it's posted on the network, it's accessible to everyone. The exception to this are threads happening in character inboxes. There is a player plot in progress to develop something for player characters, but as it has not been released yet, it's still inaccessible. We'll be updating our LOCATIONS page over the next week with additional places based on those who applied and were accepted; if there are any locations you would like to see in particular, please feel free to use the provided form so we can get it added! Additionally, please check out our CALENDAR noting the dates of the upcoming mission and Activity Check due dates. For new characters, activity is simply responding to the ACTIVITY CHECK page using the formatting provided. ⏵ OOC INTRO ⏴ Welcome to the game, new arrivals! Please use the below form to introduce yourself, tell us what you’re looking forward to, and CR you want to play. We also have a mod comment HERE that you can use to ask us mods anything about our upcoming plans, add suggestions or anything of the like.

I'll offer an immortal creature who might yell back, but will accept that's just how Bakugou is. He's not great at expressing his feelings either but he had a whole redemption arc already.

But also: does the exploding boy need coffee? Can we give him coffee?

[nitropowered]

Katsuki is....well, on his redemption arc, sorta? He apologized at least. But either way it might work out, I'd love to give it a try either way.

Yes, please give him coffee.

Hey, he's made progress! Sandalphon still sees himself as atoning, he uh. Caused an apocalyptic event, so. Bakugou's not doing so bad. With a mission coming up, they can have a run-in.

He will absolutely provide coffee. Last month he got the okay to grow it, too.

[nitropowered]

He'll probably never stop yelling and being abrasive, it's just who he is. And awww poor Sandalphon. Katsuki was just a bully when he was a kid. :(

Oh man. I don't know if Katsuki drinks coffee in canon, but he sure will now.

[prevail]

Sandalphon's not much better, and he's ancient. A longer tether, unless Lucio is around, but he's sure gone nuclear when provoked. He started off very sweet, then the existential angst set in, oops.

Can't wait to see what this lad's like with coffee. Sandalphon is very much about the stuff (there is a reason I swear) so he's pretty perfectionistic about preparing coffee the way someone likes it best. Meanwhile he uh. Drinks it black.
