GROUP INTRO POST
Welcome to the game, wild things!

Since we have an influx of a few new people at once, here's a group intro post for everyone that's new this app cycle to say hi!

If you're new, feel free to introduce yourself and your character in the comments below!

---

NOTES
✦ You can feel free to use this post for setting up starting CR. The game's player plotting/cr meme will also be posted on 4/7/18. So keep an eye out!

✦ Much like many games, the game rotates between periods of plot and downtime. Unlike other games, the periods of downtime are set in temporary camp locations instead of the same game setting. The game is currently in a camp cycle at Melai Temple. Your IC intro posts should take place in that setting and you're free to tag any other posts set there. Please see the Melai Temple post for timelines on when the plot will move forward. ICly, your characters can be handwaved as having arrived only a day or so after camp started.

✦ Please take a look at the Crossroads Post that's up and start thinking about the potential choices. When the camp cycle is over, characters will ICly have a chance to discuss which way to go and have a vote.

✦ Feel free to post on the network! So far, everyone's been working on their first logs but the network is open as well.

✦ The game has a setup where if a player has more than one character, they can only have one character on the main quest (but can swap them at any time). Currently, all characters in game are on the main quest. On 4/6/18 there will be a plot where players with more than one character will have their secondary characters sent to the Brugh for the first time. These characters will then explore the Brugh and broadcast their exploration over the network for other characters on the main quest to participate in.

Hello July! A pleasure to make your acquaintance!

I'm Lisa and I play Dixon from Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, and since he's a character with ugly subject matter I have an opt-out if you want to use it for anything. I think we ran into each other before and I had the mistaken impression that your username was from a Laura Veirs song. It's cool to cross paths again!

Anita looks like she's going to bring some much interesting creepiness to the mix (telepathy and animal sacrifice? sign me up). I'm looking forward to playing with her and you're welcome to have her boss Dixon around, he's weak-willed af.

Hey, there! It's been awhile! And yes we had crossed paths, more than a few years back.

I can't believe I'm going to say this, but I'm probably going to hold off on opt-outs between Anita and Dixon, largely because it will definitely result in some interesting CR in the long run.

Anita's telepathic commands aren't that creepy (except I guess in how she even has that, and I may have volunteered that up for use in the future for some trouble for the group, oops) but the animal sacrifice can definitely be a surprise, if the other characters aren't expecting it. It'll be very interesting to see how she and Dixon end up interacting in general.

Cool! I always just figure it's a good idea to offer up the opt-outs ahead of time so no one gets caught off guard.

Maximum shock value if it's the cutest, fluffiest bunny in the woods.

I'll definitely be interesting. We'll see where it goes!
