JULY/AUGUST OOC INTRO
Hello, and welcome to the sixth OOC Intro for Phantasmal Rift! This post also serves as a CR meme and overall state-of-the-game update!
IC Intro will go up on Monday, at the conclusion of the dungeon - but if you'd like, you can go ahead and jump into the tail end of the dungeon log now! You're welcome to top your own top levels using whatever prompts you like, and if nothing works, we'll be back at base soon!
(And yes, you get loot for any further comments you leave on the dungeon log, up to a max of five, same as in-game players. Any loot earned thusly will be appended to the sign-ups under a header with your character's journal name.)
Note:: Due to slowness in app responses, loot for new characters on the dungeon will be tallied at 11:59 PM Monday July 30th (instead of 11:59PM Sunday). Loot for existing characters will be tallied at the usual time. Further updates may be forthcoming.
STATE OF THE GAME
AC changes: Starting this cycle, AC will be on the 7th of each month, instead of a week after intro. This means points more often for everyone! Yay points. And yes, the calendar has been updated to reflect this.
STATION UPDATES: New housing? New housing! That's the bulk of it. Check it out here - ten singles in Lodestone, plus a whole new building featuring a gym and the long awaited doubles apartments. There is also now a page for Lodestone Station as well!
Onward the journey!: The next dungeon will be Telovia Crystal Mines, in search of the android Neutrino! Stay tuned for more details in the future!
Permissions post round-up: If you have a required opt-in/out permissions post for your characters' powers, please make sure to drop it under the appropriate comment header below! Existing characters' permissions are already linked there, for your convenience.
Anything else?: As usual, the questions and feedback header is here for you!

And now, the weather;
7/6; Sunny but a strong wind sets in in the afternoon, bringing with it stormclouds and a brief afternoon rain.
7/7-9; Sunny and warm, with a light breeze.
7/10-13: Sunny and humid; still air.
7/14-16: Foggy mornings, sunny afternoons, clear nights.
7/17-21: A long progression of "sunny and warm until late afternoon, clouds start to build around 3PM, intense but scattered rain from ~4PM to midnight with thunder."
7/22-23: Two days of full grey thunderstorms.
7/24-28: Sunny and breezy.
7/29: Sunny; high winds, making the day feel almost cold to those outside.
7/30-31: Sunny, hot, and humid, with scattered single clouds. Not quite heat wave material, but miserable for those not used to it.
8/1-3: Sunny with scattered clouds and cooler temperatures.
8/4-7: HEAT WAVE: Increasingly hot and sticky, recommended that you stay inside unless you're particularly well-adapted to hot climates.
8/8: Thunderstorm with impressive, pounding rain breaks the heat wave a little after noon, and continues into the morning of the 9th.
8/9: Stormy morning, fading into overcast throughout the day and eventually sun in the late afternoon. Heat wave ends, leaving the area much cooler.
8/10-13: Sunny and relatively cool.

Canon: Fallen London (blank slate PC)
Permissions: basic ic/ooc permissions, nothing that needs a response.
What's their deal?: Sonja's an occultist from a version of 1896 London which was, several decades before, purchased by capitalist space bats and moved onto the banks of a huge subterranean saltwater lake on behalf of a minor cosmic horror that's trying to figure out how love works. She associates with street urchins, talking rats, and squid-like Rubbery Men, has strong political ties to Hell, studies languages which can literally cause human scholars to spontaneously combust, and hopes one day to gamble her soul at cards. Also her eyes have turned storm-cloud colored because she intentionally invited a minor elder god into her dreams. It's cool, she's only very lightly possessed, Storm isn't even here. She's also died a bunch of times - death doesn't really function properly in the Neath.
Plotting: Well, Sonja just died in the Incendia fissure, so it'll be a few days before she's on her feet again and then she's probably going to have her girlfriend clinging to her pretty hard. Beyond that, she'll be around, being her cheerfully irreverent self.

EDITING IN AN ACTUAL PLOTTING THING HERE So like, Lin is young and inexperienced in the ways of the heart and also kind of head over heels right now so she is probably going to want to skip way ahead in the normal course of a relationship and go straight to moving in together with Sonja after they are reunited.
Depending on how Sonja feels about it, it might be a good idea to ask her to maybe slow down just a smidge.
no subject
Equal parts a: honestly by her standards she's taken this pretty slowly and carefully already anyway, b: she wants to make Lin happy after she went and died on her, and c: she's entirely willing to take an excuse to move to larger lodgings with windows.
no subject
I guess we'll just thread it and see how it plays out. Even if they decide not to Lin is moving into the rise so she can have some natural light.
