App Announcement & Fourth Wall EMP!
Fourth Wall Event!
Happy almost TWO-year anniversary, Aefenglom! Similarly to last year, in May we are having a Fourth Wall Event, open to all who want to try out a character in the setting. Don't let your dreams be dreams. Keep in mind that for this Fourth Wall, characters who would not normally be appable will be allowed, except for CRAU from other games, and with the caveat of "be considerate to each other" with regards to doubles, etc. Otherwise, have fun!
The comms will be open to comments, but not posts, from characters who are not part of the game from May 4th to June 1st, and we will have posts for fourth wall characters to top level on. Fourth wall threads can be used for AC (for current characters) or samples for applications! We will have three new Monster types, Aeternae (Aef's special brand of demons), Sagani (elemental spirit-like Monsters), and Dryad (plant people), to try out as well, information for which will go live in the Bestiary on May 1st (don't mind our dust if you happen to see any broken nav links or locked pages before then!).
A fierce three-day thunderstorm at the start of Maiuril, coinciding with Boaltinn, will churn the seas off the coast of Aefenglom. Thanks to Mirrorbound heroes destroying a Cwyldheart deep in the Wilde, bringing new life to the leyline that passes under the city, magic is crackling in the air, bringing with it a sense of pressure, of precognition that something is going to happen. Not necessarily something bad, not necessarily something good, just something.
Off the coast, rocked by the furious storm, a large ship from a distant archipelago fights to stay afloat as they enter foreign waters when suddenly, they find new faces thrown onto their decks by the waves! The newcomers are all accompanied by strong ebbs and flows in the natural magic of the world, and while these foreigners don't know these folks and have never heard the word 'Mirrorbound' in their lives, they take them in. They don't have much choice - it will take a joint effort to escape the storm, but finally, the damaged ship finds safety in the harbor of Aefenglom. There, the wave-tossed might find faces they recognize, and of course, Miss Nessie and the Coven will be on-hand to welcome them and the travelers from a distant land.
At the end of the month, shiny, reflective stones like smooth mirrors will wash up on shore, and the fourth wall guests will disappear again, similar to last year. ICly they will have a gut feeling their stay is tentative, but no one will know exactly when they'll disappear. Still, that's plenty of time to explore a little, or reunite with old friends, or get to know these travelers that request refuge in this shining city by the sea.
Applications & Reserves Changes
We've had recent feedback that players might enjoy going back to a regular schedule for applications and reserves, and we think it's about time for that! We're willing to admit when something is working, when something isn't working, or when something was working but isn't any more - and we feel like our current application system is one of those things that isn't working anymore. So, starting in May, we will be going to monthly applications and reserves during set dates, following the same general schedule that they used to, with applications being in the last week of a month, with reserves a week before that. This will, we hope, allow more attention to be placed on new characters, provide a regular schedule for intros, etc. If the interest becomes too great in the future for us to handle monthly apps, then we may change to a bimonthly schedule, but currently we don't see there being any issues.
This means that Reserves will open May 18th, and Applications will be open May 25th until the 31st. We'll be updating the pages to reflect this change soon.
And finally, an EMP!
Feel free to use this post for characters you'd like to see, or to float characters you might want to bring, make plans with people who aren't already part of the game, etc! (The regular CR Meme will be for current players/characters. Fourth wall guests should use this instead.)
Aefenglom is a sex-friendly, panfandom fantasy game, set in the post-apocalyptic world of Geardagas. Character choices can affect overarching plot, and the characters' ultimate goal will be to help rebalance the world by stopping the growth of the Cwyld, a magical blight infecting both the land and inhabitants living in places left unprotected. There are many things to learn about the world and how it came to be along the way that will help in discovering both the cause of the Cwyld and how to get home.MAIN ▪ LOGS ▪ OOC

BRINGING FOR FOURTH WALL:
no subject
Possibly Bringing: Tseng (FF7) and a D&D OC named Remi
Tell Us More: Tseng is the head of the Turks although far less outrageous than his two subordinates currently in-game. Probably. >.> As for Remi, she's a half-elf monster hunter with a short temper and a foul mouth who's gonna be very pissed about everything and likely very loud about it. Especially because she'll be one of the monsters here and that's just a little too much irony for her.
Choice: Tseng is going to be a Vampire and Remi will be a Turnskin, I think.
Basic Plans: I want to play with monsters??? IDK I'm mostly winging it rn.
Anything Else:
