January Activity Check!

[powersthatbe]

Welcome to the Activity Check for Synodiporia! Standard Activity consists of the following:

● A total of thirty comments in two or more comment threads.

All of your comments must have been made in the current AC period, but the thread itself could have been started at any time in the last sixty days. At least one thread submitted for activity needs to have been started within the current activity period.

Backtagging is fine with us (and we most definitely encourage it!), but we do want you to be involved in current events! Using more than one thread within the same post is acceptable, but if you have more than thirty comments in one single thread, you still need a separate thread. If you made the initial post, it may count as one comment towards the total thread length.

To gain a skill, you must turn in

● A total of forty-five comments in three or more comment threads.
● Characters on their first jaunt may claim one skill for meeting standard AC per month of their first jaunt (no more than two skills total).

For jaunt skills, at least one of these should mention the character’s interest in or practice of the skill in question (this is not required for Liminal, Psychic Network, Hybrid, or Combo skills). Psychic Network Skills are listed here, Liminal Skills are listed here, Hybrid Skills are listed here, and Combo Skills are listed here.

To gain two skills, you must turn in

● A total of sixty comments in three or more comment threads.
And one of the following prerequisites must be met:
● The character is in a plot-important role for the current Jaunt.
● At least one skill is a Favor skill, i.e., a skill given to a character by one of the Arcana.
● At least one skill is a character-taught skill of any type.

As above, the thread proof should mention the character’s interest in or practice of the skill in question (though this is not required for Liminal, Psychic Network, Hybrid, or Combo skills). Psychic Network Skills are listed here, Liminal Skills are listed here, Hybrid Skills are listed here, and Combo Skills are listed here. For more information on Skill AC, see here.

To drop a skill, you must have made Skill AC for the month, and may need to meet a few other qualifications. If you're interested in cutting a skill from your character's arsenal, report it here.

If you made standard activity, please comment using the correct character journal under the top-level thread labeled JANUARY ● Standard AC. If you made single or double skill activity, comment using the correct character journal under the top-level thread labeled JANUARY ● Skill AC. If you’re claiming a skill for your new character hitting standard activity, comment using the correct character journal under the top-level thread labeled JANUARY ● First Jaunt Skills. The AC and Skill mods will do all the rest!

Please note that AC is due no later than FEBRUARY 1ST at 11:59 PM CST. For those overseas, AC is due no later than FEBRUARY 2ND at 5:59 AM GMT.

For the month of January, all players are eligible for one free skill, regardless of their comment count or whether they hiatused. Jaunt skills need a use proof, as usual, but they do not need to be taught. All tree skills can be claimed as a free skill with no use proof. To claim your free skill, comment under the top-level thread labeled JANUARY ● First Jaunt/Free Skills.

If you have not made AC, report under the the Standard AC thread with the word ❝ hiatus ❞. If you are reporting hiatus for the second month running, contact the mods to avoid being idled into a dungeon dimension. For more information regarding the activity policies here at Synodiporia, please read through the Activity Policies page.

If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to leave them in the appropriate thread located here and we'll get back to you ASAP.

Prerequisite Skills: Mind Palace I, Room Creation I
Skill Gain Activity: Interstitial Movement, Interdisciplinary Mark of the Lovers

Lovers was one of my choices for Sara when I apped before realizing she was out of the game but shh, as Sara literally fights with weaponized love, using her connections to people to build her ANIMa. She's prone to teenage crushes and hormonal histrionics as well as being the kind of sharp judge of emotions and relationships that's a survival skill in her canon.

Also, she straight up told the Lovers "I don't think I'd mind being marked by you" at Yensid. And Psyche-chan is a known cheatyface who cheats. So there's that.
