⏵ March State of the Game and Arrivals ⏴ Hello and welcome to Etraya! We were very excited to see all the players interested in our new game when we put up our interest check, and are glad to have you guys join us! Thank you for applying to join Etraya and giving our game a chance. At this point, we have 35 Characters who have applied in for our first round. Given that applications do not close until 3PM PST today, there is still time to get in any last-minute applications! As a heads up, we have updated our FAQ to reflect that mod posts, including mission posts and OOC intros, will be posted at or before 3PM PST on the day they are meant to go up. We don't want to give ourselves a strict time, given we appreciate having the flexibility to make last-minute changes as needed to suit our player base, but do promise we will get them up by 3PM PST. We'll be updating our LOCATIONS page over the next week with additional places based on those who applied and were accepted; if there's any location 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. Those who have not completed this by the day AC closes will be removed from the game. ⏵ OOC INTRO ⏴ Please use the below form to introduce yourselves (or don't, we're not cops, introduce yourself how you want) and let us know of any upcoming plans you're looking forward to in game!

She would understand so it's all good! Except for the whole super villain thing eventually she'll forgive him if he's really had a change of heart.



But I loved them so far, and Kate can't help but be friends with everyone given the chance.

He genuinely thinks she seems extremely chill compared to every other superhero he's met in his life (weird how 'actively committing crimes' tends to make them mad at you!) so he's actually going to end up feeling a little bad about all the lying. Not enough to stop doing it yet, but baby steps.

I can see her being a good influence on him just by osmosis! That much harder to be a complete asshole when you're thinking about how it'd make your cool new acquaintance think you're being a dick.

Funny how that works! But hey she is here for all the good influencing. She believes in you.

I just realized after posting that comment that Krouse absolutely knows the 'curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal' GIF for real and could conceivably reference it when he eventually has to come clean. Love to play a nerd from a contemporary Earth analogue.

And excellent! Very excited to see our first mission and how we can play with whatever it ends up being...I also love super-team crossover events.
