❣ 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.

[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.

[wethrinaer]

How kind of them! Though I don't know how much taking care of I will need.

[a considering look, before he holds out a hand to shake]

I appreciate what you have told me, lad. Despite however you may feel about me.

[carptricks]

[NOT]

[TAKING THAT HAND, SORRY MAIAS]

. . .

I'm not that much of a jerk. And I do recognize that you don't remember anything from back home. So. . .

[he shrugs]

I'll wait until you do remember to be more of a brat towards you.

[wethrinaer]

[WHAT A RUDE CHILD]

Another thing I should look forward to then, I suppose.

[carptricks]

[BASICALLY]

[you shoved my big sis off of a cliff and burned down her village hiss hisssssssss]

Hey, it could be worse. I could be trying to punch you again.

[wethrinaer]

Ah, but now I know to be on guard for such . . . greetings from now on. I'm afraid it won't happen a second time.

[carptricks]

[pfffft]

Don't worry. I know. Once was enough for me.

[wethrinaer]

Well, I meant in general, but I will be keeping my eye on you anyway.

[carptricks]

[s-snorts]

I'm flattered. Really.

[wethrinaer]

As you should be.

[carptricks]

[folds an arm in front of himself and takes a CHEEKY BOW]

[wethrinaer]

[but why would you ever take your attention off of him, you should know better.

As Kaito stands up, something goes whizzing past his face. Whether or not it hits doesn't matter, it's that it could have. If he turns to look at what it was, well. It was a dagger! And it's currently embedded into the tree behind him]

Oh dear, it seems as though my hand slipped. My sincerest apologies.

Perhaps you should keep an eye on me, as well.

[carptricks]

[WOW]

[his gaze narrows and he backpedals towards the tree, lifting a hand to yank the dagger out of the trunk. all the while never taking his eyes off of Maias]

. . . consider that a lesson learned.

[. . .]

I think I'll take this home and give it to my teammate.

[wethrinaer]

[at least it's not an important dagger that he knows of. And he can probably get another, somewhere]

Oh, please do. Tell her I send it with love.

[carptricks]

Careful.

[twirls the knife around in his hand, somehow without cutting himself]

Believe it or not, I don't want to find you with this dagger stuck in your back one day.
