❣ 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.

[Maias lives to see another day due to playercest!1 yay!1]

-- eh? What is it?

[wethrinaer]

[he got his abuse the player is pleased anyway]

Is remembering how to do something normal here?

[carptricks]

[arches an eyebrow]

Yup. When you arrive, you either remember one incident from your life or remember how to perform a certain skill.

Looks like you got the skill.

[wethrinaer]

How odd.

[he looks honestly concerned with this]

[carptricks]

[sssside-eyeing him now]

. . . what? What is it that you remember how to do?

[wethrinaer]

I don't know if I could put into words. I could demonstrate?

[carptricks]

[NNNNNOPE]

Depends.

I'm not letting you demonstrate anything on me.

[wethrinaer]

I don't remember saying "on".

[carptricks]

[sssstill side-eyeing him, and he takes like. four steps back :|;; just in case]

Go for it, then.

[SEE HOW MUCH HE DOES NOT TRUST YOU, NEW GUY]

[wethrinaer]

[how could you distrust this innocent face gosh.

But he shrugs and, with a flick, there's a rock in his hand. Not quite sleight of hand, but more the opposite]

So suspicious.

[carptricks]

[HE REMEMBERS WHAT YOU'VE DONE AND HOW FAKE THAT CHARMING FACE IS]

. . .

Sleight-of-hand? Or summoning magic?

[wethrinaer]

[THERE IS NOTHING FAKE ABOUT HIS CHARM HOW DARE U]

Is that what it's called?

[carptricks]

Depends on what "it" is. Were you holding the rocker beforehand, or did it just appear in your palm from out of nowhere?

[wethrinaer]

It was up my sleeve.

[and like it appeared, it's gone]

[carptricks]

Sleight-of-hand, then.

Or "magic" as I call it back home. Different than spellcasting.

[wethrinaer]

There's a difference?

[carptricks]

A huge difference. You'll probably see what that difference is the longer you're here.

[wethrinaer]

Is this something I should look forward to or be wary of?

[carptricks]

[HESITATES. . .]

Depends on the context.

[wethrinaer]

. . . in general.

[carptricks]

Like I said: depends on the context.

One of my teammates can conjure snack food out of thin air, and the other. . . well.

Again, she sets things on fire.

[wethrinaer]

So I should have a healthy sense of wariness and awe from a distance?

[carptricks]

Ha. That's probably the best way to handle it, yeah.

[wethrinaer]

I'll keep that in mind.

Though I suppose I should go find my team - anyone in this color, yes?

[carptricks]

Right.

They'll take care of you. That's what teams are for.
