State of the Game 2

M O D U P D A T E

Hello Savrites! We had originally intended this to be a normal mod update type of post, but we decided to do a State of The Game update instead. Mostly to let you know what's going on, where we're going, and where we'd like to end up. First, let's talk about apps! As per the calendar, applications will be opening up again on October 16th. We have changed some of the rules regarding apps to (hopefully) make it easier on both new and old players as well as the mods. They are reflected on the individual pages, but here is a summary: ☄ A reserve is now required for all applications. ☄ There will be an application cap. ☄ Any current player who officially drops may re-app a new character at any time, but only once every 2 months. The application cap will be set to 15 applications for new players and 15 applications for current players. This means we will have a total of 30 app slots open during October. Whichever slots are not filled will then be opened as a "free for all" on the last day of the cycle (October 22nd). Two Page Updates: Mini Games & Jobs TIMELINE: October - Mini Colony * see info below November - Ship Month December - Midway Hub January - Midway Hub February - Arc II Thisavrou Plot Specific Sign Ups Are Now Closed In October the ship will be touching down on the Runoff's Mini Colony. This is a mecha of trade and commerce, which is something we want to do a little bit of world building with. There are three sections below that players should participate in. The first is a sign up for location specific plot; take a look at the linked map and respond with your character's name and the corresponding number. Once all the numbers have been taken, we'll double them over for anyone else that signs up. The second section is to 'create a business'; in this section players can build a business and then NPC it during the event. The third is suggest something that occurs on the mini colony; you list it and if it fits, we'll approve it. All of this stuff will be built into the event logs when they come up. We'd really like our players' input. If anyone has questions about the upcoming event(s), Arc II, or anything else, let us know below. Thank you all for being amazing players.

Can I RNG the genders? :D Also if Elena gets to the rank of getting her own private barracks this AC as well, can she technically say she's letting the kids live there? And because they grow slower than humans, what would their physical age/appearance be like? Height? (Elena's around 5'3-5'4 if that helps)

Annnnnnnd if I did go with the idea of them tying her up when she gets in the house, because they're an alien species, despite looking mostly human, would they have any kind of special abilities (enhanced strength, speed, etc.) and would they be aware of said ability? They won't ACTUALLY HURT her in the horror-y side of things if they're latching onto her as their new mother......would they?

I'm asking so much, sorry. Just wanna be sure! C:

☄ The genders are totally up to you. You can do anything that you want with her barracks, so she can definitely leave them there. They'd look about five or six, and you can decide on their appearance (hair, eye, skin color, etc).

Since they're children and their previous mother hadn't taught them as much as they need, if she were tied up, anything that might happen to her would be more along the lines of neglect. They'd forget to feed her, or tie the binds too tight. Not purposeful things, but accidental. If they latch on, they wouldn't try to hurt her with malice.
