INTROS + MONTHLIES

Who: Everyone
When: Day 51, evening
Where: the Aurora

[It's evening, and as the stars come out you get that text again:]
WELCOME NEW HEROES

[This round's newbies are waking up in their rooms, in the usual nondescript undies or team pyjamas.

Outside, the fog is gone. In its place is a pleasant evening, its beauty enhanced by tiny, softly-glowing flowers along the jungle paths. Unfortunately, should you peer closer toy may notice these flowers have blackened, curled leaves -- and the scent that wafts up when you step on them will either heighten or dull one of your senses.

But hey, why go in the jungle when you could eat questionable snacks in the lounge again? This time there are towers of round chocolates in varying colours, and sparkle blue and white snowflake decor on the walls and hanging from the ceiling. In typical Star Prince and Knights fashion there is a lot of glitter, and the chocolates definitely have a magical side-effect: in this case, transformation.

☆ Blue-wrapped chocolates cause your character to shift in age. They may get older or younger, and this transformation may be purely physical or may include mental shifting as well.

☆ Silver-wrapped chocolates cause your character to gain animal features -- anything from cat ears to fully becoming a cat is acceptable, and any animal real or mythical is game. It won't change you to a size that doesn't fit in the train, though.

☆ White-wrapped chocolates cause a transformation to a different physical sex.

☆ Black-wrapped chocolates cause you to take on the form of another person -- someone on the train or someone you remember from elsewhere. It won't turn you into anyone you don't personally know, however.

These effects wear off within a few hours, and you can combine more than one. Enjoy your icebreaker and make that fresh meat feel welcome!]

[[OOC NOTES: As the monthly prompt, the flowers will continue until next month's placements. If you have any questions, please ping the mods via the q&a. Thank you!]]

Magic's not real.
schrodingerscockroach: (Why any of this?!)

[personal profile] schrodingerscockroach 2020-01-04 08:14 am (UTC)(link)
...what.

[YOU HAVE A LITERAL DEMON IN YOUR HEAD????]
malignstar: (who can face this world alone)

[personal profile] malignstar 2020-01-04 05:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Everyone knows that.
schrodingerscockroach: (Ugh why me)

[personal profile] schrodingerscockroach 2020-01-05 09:32 am (UTC)(link)
....

[He sighs.]

No, it's real.

[And to demonstrate, he'll hold out and make a cream colored magical shield.]
malignstar: (voice I never heard)

[personal profile] malignstar 2020-01-05 03:37 pm (UTC)(link)
WHOA! How did you do that?
schrodingerscockroach: (Accepted the dumbassery)

[personal profile] schrodingerscockroach 2020-01-06 07:59 am (UTC)(link)
Magic.

[Even does jazz hands.]
schrodingerscockroach: (Twisty straws)

Most of them aren't particularly flashy.

Though I guess...oh, I know! [Will pull out an apple and he'll toss it up into the air.]

[And cast another spell and stops it mid-air.]

[personal profile] malignstar 2020-01-16 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
It stopped!

[ Grabs for apple to check it out! ]
schrodingerscockroach: (Washingbus)

[personal profile] schrodingerscockroach 2020-01-16 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
[He can grab the apple.]

[Can't really move it though.]

Yep. Only lasts for a bit though. The magic I have it meant more for confrontations, not longterm.

[ Pulls at it ]

How long will it stay there?
schrodingerscockroach: (Daw he's learning)

[personal profile] schrodingerscockroach 2020-01-16 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
A few minutes max, but then I'm really tired by the end.

[It'll drop after thirty seconds.]
malignstar: (just a drop of rain)

[ Goes to catch it with surprisingly good reflexes ]

Kinda short for magic.
schrodingerscockroach: (Will let a man fight gravity)

[personal profile] schrodingerscockroach 2020-01-16 02:04 am (UTC)(link)
Magic isn't really my thing. I can only use it thanks to a magical item. And it seems primarily geared to handle fights. There's some people on the train who know a lot of magic and can do a lot more than that.
schrodingerscockroach: (Its kind of sweet)

[personal profile] schrodingerscockroach 2020-01-16 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
80H, Eliza. Some others, but I think they're mostly combat magic, I don't know if they can show off so safely.

[personal profile] malignstar 2020-01-16 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
Combat magic is still cool.
schrodingerscockroach: (Sass in armor)

[personal profile] schrodingerscockroach 2020-01-19 10:43 am (UTC)(link)
It is, but it's also hard to safely show off and very short term.

What about with a dummy?
schrodingerscockroach: (Will let a man fight gravity)

[personal profile] schrodingerscockroach 2020-01-28 07:03 pm (UTC)(link)
....I don't know for sure, actually. Might need a lot of dummies.
