❣ Oops! Your character's soul has been shattered to pieces, leaving them with only three things: the clothes on their back, one personal item, and either one skill or one memory.


REGULAR CHARACTERS OPTION 1
❣ Pick a team, any team! Your character will wake up in that dorm, or they could find themselves wandering the castle.

REGULAR CHARACTERS OPTION 2
❣ They will wake up in a very plain, very empty room, containing only themselves, a door, and a whole bunch of almost-empty mirror frames. And maybe some other people! Maybe.

❣ A Mysterious Disembodied Voice—that will, if asked its name, call itself Echo—will give the standard information dump! Reapers destroyed your world; the Queen saved your soul; you are on teams and the teams have patrons; you can regain yourselves and save your world by playing games; please for the love of god don't pull those lone shards out of the mirrors seriously don't do that

❣ . . . if they go ahead and do that thing anyway, oops they vanish into nothingness until somebody slots the shard back in again.

❣ The door isn't locked, so they're free to get themselves out into the realm whenever they'd like!

REGULAR CHARACTERS OPTION 3
❣ They're just. Wandering the realm. Yep. Have... fun...? Maybe they'll encounter some of the wildlife! It's up to you.

CATS
❣ Want to test a character on the Cat team? All you need to know is here.

[UM HERSELF BECAUSE MAIAS IS A JERK]

When an Echo runs a game, you'll hear a set of bells toll throughout the realm. Head to the clocktower, and that'll get things started.

[his mouth twitches into a wry grin]

But you've gotta wait for the Echo to initiate things. You can't just run off and start winning memories back on your own, without them.

[EXCUSE]

Well that seems like a rather boring system.

[carptricks]

[spreads his arms and lets out a laugh]

Welcome to Kyriakos.

[wethrinaer]

And what a welcome it's been. Do you bring anything good with you, lad?

[carptricks]

. . .

[puffs out a breath of air. time to be blunt]

I know who you are.

[wethrinaer]

Do you? Well, that makes one of us, then.

[carptricks]

[. . .]

You're going to remember a lot of things about one of my teammates. They aren't going to be good things.

[wethrinaer]

Such as?

[carptricks]

You'll see.

[he's. not going to say them aloud :')]

. . . it's probably better if you just stay away from Tiamat.

[wethrinaer]

I don't know what a Tiamat is.

[carptricks]

My team. Anyone wearing this shade of purple-red.

[he tugs at his scarf]

[wethrinaer]

I will certainly do my best.

[no he won't]

[carptricks]

[yeah he knows you won't. you jerk]

I mean it. Pretty sure I won't be the only one from that team eager to punch you.

[wethrinaer]

Because of your teammate, yes?

[carptricks]

Exactly.

[. . .]

Honestly, she'd probably wanna be first in line to hit you. Or set you on fire. Depends on her mood.

[wethrinaer]

Goodness. The moody sort then, is she?

But . . . whatever I have done, it's between the two of us, right? No one else?

[carptricks]

[raises both eyebrows at him]

What're you implying?

[wethrinaer]

That whatever it is is none of your business. Or your other teammates.

[said so! Pleasantly!]

[carptricks]

[that's what he thought. he pulls up an easy, steady smile that's edged with just a bit of sharpness]

You'd like to think that, wouldn't you?

[wethrinaer]

You certainly wouldn't want a stranger meddling in your personal business, would you?

[carptricks]

My teammate is no stranger.

[said firmly]

If it looks like someone might try to hurt her, then I can't just let things be.

[wethrinaer]

True, but you are to me. And I certainly don't want anyone meddling in my business.

[and he spreads his hands with a shrug] But why would I bother? I don't even remember myself, let alone your teammate. If anything, it'd be a waste of my time without the proper context, yes?

[carptricks]

[yes, but one day you'll regain that context. he grumps]

I've given my warning. It's not just for her sake, but yours, too.

[though that probably sounds pretty empty]

It's up to you if you wanna follow it.

[wethrinaer]

[that is a day that should be feared]

You're certainly an odd one, punching me and then warning me away for my "sake".

[carptricks]

[he knows :')]

I don't like you.

[so blunt]

But I can acknowledge that you don't remember the things you've done. I'm at least giving you the opportunity to remember them before you get yourself set on fire.
