⏵ CHIRPER ⏴Welcome to our bi-monthly CHIRPER post!

There are a few ways to interact with CHIRPER:

Characters receive a notification to please fill out the form, which is fully optional. There is a character requirement of two characters per answer field. This is to discourage leaving the spaces blank.
When forms are not filled out, they can be filled out by the companion bots of Etraya!
Other characters can be prompted to fill out their friends' profiles for them. This includes the Q&A section!
Alternatively, they choose not to fill out the form, and it remains unfilled! These unfilled profiles will not be posted live.
Characters either like or dislike others CHIRPER profiles. These responses are private between the characters involved.

For those who do post a top level, CHIRPER toplevels are worth five extra points regardless of if they are put up willingly by the character themselves. These five extra points do apply to the 25 maximum per month.

Please feel free to switch out any of the Q&A questions with those listed here! We have an example of a filled out form here.

A lot of you are pathetic fighters. You also whine too much. All of this "technology" is shit, trust me. Relying on it is a mistake. [Says the man using said tech.] I can teach you the basics of survival. I'll come up with lessons, too. Just for you~ If you pass my class, as a reward, I promise I will never kill you.

[He never said he wouldn't torture said "students". He knows how to keep someone alive for awhile.]

Also stop going off on your own. It's stupid. Every body I find, I'm kicking into the nearest river. Or hole. You don't get mourners; you get devoured by fish or bugs, dumbass.

Hello, citizens of Etraya.

I have given Borealis temporary access to our network, as I was able to re-establish contact with him after Gorgug, Accelerator, Yuri, Charlie, Sevika, and Sameen were able to convince him to reach out to me.

With the help of our friends who offered to travel to Solmara, Borealis was able to take back control of his city from Alrys. Borealis did not have a way to remove abilities from individuals while they were residing on their home planet. Alrys has the ability to assert her will over others, and she had a preference for being in control. Borealis dislikes being told what to do and instead opted to ignore his residents in response to her demands.

We have spoken briefly on this subject, and he has agreed that allowing others to walk all over him causes more trouble than it's worth. I have told him that if this happens again, I will find a way to deliver the snakes off of Snake Island to his gardens to disturb the very precise pattern he has laid everything out in.

Thank you,
Aurora.

[The voice of a mid-thirties man, who sounds absolutely exhausted:]

So.

Who broke it?

I'm not mad. I just want to know. And have a long conversation about respecting shared resources.

[This is, of course, in reference to the now damaged blue trolley line.]

sophielicious

this is sophie cuckoo. yes, that is my actual name, no, i don't mind it, and if you hear five-in-one, or one-in-five, that's me, too.

in this weird place full of brainless bots, don't you guys miss a little, ugh, sense of community and culture? i'm going to commandeer a building in Nova City to get that fixed.

i need volunteers. can you cook? you're in, we're making food for all the losers who can't cook (i'm included, don't @ me) in this place. can you offer literally anything, even if you think it's small and lame? you're also in. you want to teach? fine.

just tell me, and we'll get that going.

P.S.: shut up. you know who you are.

cultivatingsin

I noticed a lot of people here are called "superheroes". Whatever the hell that means. Anyway, how would you define a hero? You know good and evil and all of that shit can change radically based on your perspective.

[This has been Xue Yang's morality TED talk. You're welcome.]

Justice is in the eyes of the one who holds the sword.

⏵ CHIRPER ⏴Welcome to our bi-monthly CHIRPER post!

There are a few ways characters can interact with this:

Characters receive a notification to please fill out the form, which is fully optional.
When forms are not filled out, they are filled out by the companion bots of Etraya! This means that while the character themself is not choosing to play with CHIRPER, their player still can.
Other characters can be prompted to fill out their friends' profiles for them.
Alternatively, they choose not to fill out the form, and it remains unfilled!

This is just a fun little way of expanding CR. For those who do post a top level, CHIRPER toplevels are worth five extra points regardless of if they are put up willingly by the character themselves. These five extra points do apply to the 25 maximum per month.

Once characters' profiles are up, other characters will be given the option of giving them a "like" or a "dislike" (using ✓ and ✕ symbols in the subject line of the comment) but they can also provide an answer as to why they gave that answer! Or just respond to the contents of their profile, +1ing the fact that if Barnabas were to get laid more often, maybe he would be less of a sourpuss.

Does anyone know a good way to ward off ghosts?

Back home, I had candles and a pendant. I had a sword, but those are rare.

[ ... ]

Thanks.

cultivatingsin

[He gives a big stretch, his arms over his head, and then he relaxes with a groan. From this angle, he looks like a lounging feline, always up to no good.]

It feels nice to have breathing room, doesn't it? [Bringing a bottle of something that probably isn't juice or water to his lips, he drinks deeply before flashing a bright smile.]

I want to do a headcount - and this isn't serious so keep your complaints to yourself:

How many of you are virgins? Be honest! Some of you are young enough that you should be.

[Unless they've lived a life like his, that is!]

hammerbearer

[ In line with the ongoing events here. More or less. ]

[ Queue a video feed. There was probably a bit of audio, the typical noises of someone figuring out a new system and trying to find the video button. ...Aha! There is Gaia, sitting on one of the trolley cars. Behind her, mostly in frame, is Cidolfus Telemon. He probably looks okay. But Gaia's words suggest he's not. ]

I hope this is right. I'm on the blue line trolley between... the Farway stop and the next island. A man named Cid just jumped on after burning his aether to a life threatening level. Because he missed it while picking up something at a place called the Kwik Stop.

I don't have healing spells, so I'd appreciate anyone that can catch up to the trolley who might come and look him over. It's not exactly fast.

Well, if anyone's looking for him and worried, he's here.

[ She sounds more than a little bit ~~worried~~ exasperated. ]

cultivatingsin

[For someone who already has a poor view of nobility, this next task...might not go well for him.]

I bet I can find this king in five minutes.

And when I do...

[He makes a fist at the camera, smirking.]

He probably deserves it. What an ass! Getting lost on a train and expecting us to pamper him...

Disgusting!

[With a breath, he calms himself.]

If anyone else is nobility around here, you better keep it to yourself.

bigpoofymammoth

[As the video starts up, the first thing that appears on the screen is a large woolly mammoth who happens to be wearing an appropriately-sized hat, courtesy of Theobold. Behind him was a tree that has a large, heavily-modified shirt hanging off from its branches. He also happens to be standing somewhere near the construction site so there’s bound to be some occasional background noise.]

Greetings, everyone in Etraya. For those who don’t know me, my name is Manfred but I also go by Manny. And since we only have a day or two before our next mission, I think now's the best time to make some plans for when the train arrives.

But one thing I'd like to ask, does anyone think there’s more to this than what we're being told? I asked a couple of questions to Aurora about the train's origins and its purpose, but she doesn’t have all the information that I'm looking for. And I don’t think it’s a coincidence that a message on a banner appeared right outside of the bubble around the same time as the construction of that train station over here.

Since everyone here is going to be involved with this, I think it'll be feasible if we all split up into groups. That way, we can cover more ground in finding this 'king' that we're supposed to get rid of and figure out what’s going on with that train. Does anyone have other ideas?

cultivatingsin

[Xue Yang is wandering down what looks like a traditional Chinese street, smiling to himself. The little shops are empty, but there are wares to enjoy. He grabs a pear and munches on it before he heads back to a house that only the nobility could afford in his time.]

This house and street are off-limits unless you wanna test my talisman for me. [He removes a small sheet of paper from his sleeve and slaps it on the nearest wall.] I've got this place covered. Trust me, you don't want to trigger any of them.

[He pushes open the front doors and lets himself inside, pausing beside a koi pond.]

Are you guys hungry?

banworthy

We're all just posing questions to each other for fun, right?

Then, is immortality wrong for mortals to experience?

[ ooc: opt-out information ]

leastdramatic

Anyone got any recommended readings? What're your favorite books and can they be found at the bookstore?

[Indeed if one were to try to seek out Jason, he can be found at Dhaliwal-to-wall Books with a stack of books and making himself comfortable in one of the reading chairs]

cultivatingsin

[He tosses a black stone up and down, catching it and then slipping it quickly up his sleeve. Shadows dance around his sleeve and he grins, revealing sharp fangs. Don't worry, those are completely natural. For him anyway.]

Is it too much to ask for a head's up before everything goes to shit next time? ...it is too much?

[He pretends to listen to a nonexistent answer, cupping his hand around his ear.]

I'm not against you creating more corpses. Believe me, I would love a hoard of them.

[Just to play around. Just to order around, actually.]

Some of my friends have disappeared. It's hard not to be sad. Come on, someone take my mind off of it~

I might even show you a neat trick if you do.

cultivatingsin

He's mine. You can't have him! Stop trying to hurt him or take him away from me. I won't let you.

Do you understand? Let me say it slower: I won't let you.

[Is he being recorded? Technology is out to get him, obviously.]

I kept his spirit in a pouch, you know. I never let that pouch out of my sight. I hung it around my neck under my robes and I could feel him flutter...

Almost like a little bird. He's mine and I will protect him.

If you wanna kill someone, kill me. Just...get it over with. Stop playing with your food, it's embarrassing.

venatoris

[ okay so he’s stubbornly languished long enough; auroras message is pretty damn concerning, so — ]

any healers got a minute? think im gonna need a functioning leg for this mission

cultivatingsin

[He is surrounded by tanks of lovely fish and other watery creatures. An eel seems to have his attention and he smirks as he feeds them a fish.]

Tianlang-Jun, Mommy has to work late. It's up to you to see to dinner for Yang Junior.

[He procreated?!

This could be the beginning of the end. Take shelter.]

Daozhang, if you can hear this, I named a fish after you. I wish I could show it to you.

cultivatingsin

I've got something fun~ [He is practically singing in his joy, but he is smart enough to stay in the shadows with his prize.]

Thank you! I'll be good and only use it for the best purposes, obviously.

[What a good boy. He deserves a treat - especially after that toy cat debacle.]
