MAY MINGLE & CR MEME


MAY MINGLE & CR MEME ❀
OOC intro/mingle posts in Ethyraia serve a dual function as CR memes for current players. The hope is that this will encourage current players to scan through and greet our new players. Take this opportunity to get to know your fellow players, plan hatching log threads, check-in regarding the keeping of TDM threads (which can be made game canon), find plot hooks, and plan for future CR.

(In the future, we will have a thread at the top of the post for new players to link their comments, to help boost visibility — please keep an eye out for this in the future! Obviously, this round, everyone is new.)

Note: If we find that combining these functions isn't working, we'll reevaluate this set-up. Please don't hesitate to share your feedback.

REMINDERS:
The HATCHING LOG goes up on 05/21. Because pretty much everyone was on the TDM, we're going to expand this one considerably to extend beyond what was present there. Expect additional prompts!
☆ The first month's activity check will just be a check-in. Remember to visit the ACTIVITY PAGE to get yourself all set up.
☆ Player plots and questions should come through our PLOT ENGAGEMENT page, and the more PCs you have on board, the more we can give you.
☆ You can ask general setting questions on our FAQ page.
Our FIRST EVENT will be 06/10.
☆ Our next applications round opens on July 1st, at which point we'll start monthly cycles. We were just too excited this time.

!!! That's so kind of you! Thank you. And yeah, I'd love for them to continue to hang out and see what happens. Varric was one of my favorite parts in DA2 (I never made it through Inquisition), so I'm excited to see him being played.

tbh I was far less interested in Inquisition than 2, as much as I love Varric. 2 just felt like it was the heart of the series, you know?
But I'm super excited to play him and he's by far my most fun character to play!

Yeah, I really loved 2! I felt like the story was so good, and it grabbed me from the beginning the way Origins did and... Inquisition did not >.>

So we can keep the TDM game canon and talk about how we wanna end it/handwave if you like or start over? If we keep it and they go back in the cell, Nina's gonna want to talk until she stops being so freaked out about not hearing/feeling heartbeats and then be like 'okay we should go to sleep and preserve strength' and then be out like a light. So -- thoughts?

That's me exactly as well! I'm replaying Inquisition really slowly right now just for Varric and it's just not as good, damn it.

We can totally handwave and keep it for the game! Varric's pretty uneasy and freaked out himself and he's not going to notice Nina being uneasy for anything other than the same reason as him. He'll be happy to talk about whatever to keep her - and him! - sane for as long as she needs.

Sounds like a plan! Let's say they just talk about the Fold and a few creepy DA2 things (she'd be interested in apostates), and he could probably pick up she's got some weird magic background as well and then it was probably like: OK, let's get some sleep while we can. I'd say we could imagine some basic worldbuilding stuff got shared too, and just play it by ear when they're talking in game for if we wanna be like: oh, this is new or oh, I heard some of this, tell more?
