Fourth Wall Plotting Post: Part One
Synodiporia’s final Fourth Wall event will run November 7-25. All players are welcome to join us for a dig into the game’s metaplot as we approach endgame! During this time, we will also be running our final app round open to new characters; old players are welcome to re-app now, or dust off idled characters via re-app or the dungeon process at any time after November.
New posts will go up November 7, 14, and 21, with elements addressing the inner workings of Liminal Space and ways in which the Travelers might be able to manipulate those inner workings for themselves now. Fresh plotting posts will be made available November 12 and 19.
The first fourth-wall post will cover some side effects of Fortune breaking the device that brings new Travelers into Liminal Space, as follows:
1. Hold hands, send a text - players working in concert with strangers can send and receive brief text messages with people on their homeworlds, or worlds previously visited. You can NPC responses yourselves, receive no responses, or send messages to someone who hasn’t yet been brought in on the fourth wall - see point two!
2. Summoning - it won't always work, but telling secrets to strangers will provide an opportunity to summon someone from your world, or from a dungeon/"out of ambit." This can be deliberate or not, but should definitely be a castmate who plans to test drive or reclaim! The "doesn't always work" component is to explain why everyone doesn't just summon their ENTIRE cast to kick butt.
3. Scrying - Travelers will be able to look at the current state of affairs on past Jaunt worlds, and the current state of their homeworldsand current balance of power between the Arcana. The ability to scry on Jaunt worlds so will be unlocked by a special, fourth-wall only AC turn-in, and players CAN pool their forces. Every 100 comments turned in will unlock a brief glimpse of a previous world. NB: multiple players may pool comments for this, but no one turn-in may have comments by multiple characters played by one person. So Matt could turn in Joscelin threads on one glimpse, and Remy threads on another glimpse; but could not spend Joscelin & Remy comments on the SAME glimpse. Comments tallied this way can still be used at the end of the month for regular AC & skill gain.
EDIT: Scrying on the balance of power is delayed a week as we try to make this first week's prompts more accessible to new people!
Feel free to plot in the comments below, talk about who you'll be tossing our way, and otherwise ready Shenanigans!

If you'd like Rise to be part of the AU, I'd love to bring her in. (I have Ideas, one of which is that Rise's the Japanese voice of Elsa.)
