State of the Cycle - FIFTH WAVE
November was a quiet month. Something happened to Airy at the end of October, and she’s been scarce since. What did happen at that party anyway? It looks like some of the NPC’s have looked into it and those arriving are receiving odd stares from those living in HQ. The pattern of arrival is now random! There have been a few arrives since and it’s certainly a noticeable change. Luckily no one is appearing in weird places again. We're looking to get an ad together for Cycle and pull in more players. If there are ways you think we should get this game out there please let us know! Cycle is meant to be fun, low stress, with a world that you can dive into as much or as little as you want. Just a reminder, the NPCs are fully interactable (unless their picture is grey). If you wish to pursue any player plots or talk to NPC’s we’ll make sure to make ourselves as available as possible. We want you to have fun and be able to interact with the setting. We would very much like to hear from you, also! Please, comment here with any comments, questions, or just a general idea of how you feel about the game so far! Week 1: Cairn has decided to teach people magic. There will be a post for this and we’ve begun to write up information on Cycles magic. Please ask us if you are unsure if your character can learn magic in the Cycle Universe. Airy will be making her own announcement and as always, it’s meant to make people smile. "Secret Santa" will be suggested and any who sign up will receive a private message with the name of their recipient. Handing out these presents will be up to the player’s discretion! Christmas in New York is something amazing and everyone should take a look! There are lights, ice rinks and something wicked this way comes??? Week 2: Cairn made his offer to teach people magic at the beginning of the month and the rumor mill is turning. The higher-ups seem to be getting paranoid about something. A report arrived in the middle of the night and someone might be arriving in HQ. Check out the rumors page during this time for more hints. You’re also welcome to forward date any questions you might have for NPC’s but don’t worry there are more rumors coming each day! It might be the holiday buzz or something else? Something is changing and it might have to do with those who arrived. Week 3: Unable to keep it a secret any longer, Charles (our fearless leader) reaches out to those who've been brought there to bolster their defenses and to help deal with the spies that seem to have found some traction in NYC. Those who’ve been out in the city now know why it feels as if they’re being followed to HQ. Luckily they haven’t found the location yet but there is trouble brewing and the holidays are the perfect cover up. Traffic in the city and busy frantic people make it easy to walk around unnoticed. More information about the spies will be details by Charles. They are human’s and able to operate during the day unlike some of the stronger defenders of HQ. It’s explicitly stated that Airy isn’t allowed to leave HQ until these spies are handled and some might see the young creator pouting around the compound. A plotting post is below for the spies. We’d like 2-3 people to sign up per each spy and we will then have a post go up for these threads. If you’d like to be randomly tasked a spy please let us know! You do not have to be a fighter in order to participate in this event. These spies are human and you can talk to them as much as you can fight them. What you choose to do will affect future events. If threads drag or people drop we will hand wave what happens so, again, there is no stress to tag. Charles will talk to those who capture a spy and possibly leak a little bit more information about what’s going on. Week 4-5: No matter the outcome of the spies event it will be quiet for the last week of the month. Holiday cheer is everywhere and there will be a lot of Holiday moves in the rec room for people to take a look at. There will also be a tree, Secret Santa and perhaps you’ll find a present underneath the Christmas tree. Please comment on the Holiday link below for an item that you’d like from your worlds. (Please note that it can’t be too big.) If you do not comment something will be randomly grabbed from your canon and it will be posted at the end of the month. You know what December means right? Snow? No, it doesn’t mean snow. It means it’s cold and windy and uncomfortable. New York doesn’t get snow until January but there will be a harsh cold front and a dramatic drop in temperature. Nights will be below freezing and there will be highs of 35 degrees F during the day with a -12 wind chill. I might have lied about the snow. It will snow the last week of December from the 24th to the 31st and then into January. It’s amazing how well New York City is able to clear its streets.
