wethelostooc | Mod Announcement: Endgame

First and foremost, we'd like to thank everyone for their participation in the latest event, Penumbra. Characters were able to make their first successful rescue of a god from being Lost! The seed of the idea for this event has been in the works for roughly a year and half and marks the beginning of the final chapter for We the Lost.

We are entering endgame from this point forward and intend to wrap up the game and leave it as a sandbox for folks to play in at their leisure by August. This will be WtL's 7th anniversary, and we think that's a pretty good high point to end on. Endgame events will begin in mid-June and ICly involve:

Characters traveling to and through the Lost dimension.
Rescuing Lost gods (and potentially people) that have disappeared from across the multiverse.
Permanently opening the Meadous as a hub world for travel between different worlds/dimensions.
Zephyr growing from an adolescent to a mature god (don't worry, they'll still be small, cute, and fluffy; this is more a power change than a physical one.

Check HERE for more on all of the pieces that have come together for this. We hope it will help introduce concepts to newer players and jog memories for older players.

OOCly, the following changes will be made for endgame starting from this point forward:

Activity Check will now be a simple check-in.
Characters may make wishes (within reason) without needing to contribute points or receive mod approval. If you want to do something big like changing the setting or getting a fantastical magic item, please just shoot the mods a PM!
All previous residents of the Meadous are welcome to rejoin the comms and play out endgame with us, but we will be closing WtL to brand new applicants.

All of that said, we’d also like to extend a special thanks to our co-mods and helper mods through the years: Ink, Amanda, Michi, Flurry, QV, and Hydok. None of this would have been possible without them or all of you.

All Our Appreciation,
Sora, Terri, and Kathryn

Please direct questions for Part III of endgame here!

For characters who visit other worlds, will the passage of time in the Meadous always be ICly unstable/unpredictable, or will there be a way for them to be sure that they won't be missing anything while they travel?

Characters may be able to work out a means of stabilizing it. The unpredictability is mainly an OOC mechanism to allow folks to determine how much, if any, time passes for them! So, Alfie could say... wish for a stabilizing gem from Zephyr that pins him to a particular moment or lets him pick how much time passes.

Awesome, thank you!

A COUPLE MORE QUICK QUESTIONS apologies if I missed any of this somewhere

1) What is the criteria for characters from other godling realms? Will they all have been pulled straight from their canons, or are CRAUs from other games okay?

2) Going forward, will the Meadous continue to collect lost CRAU characters, or will it only be a travel hub?

1. The godlings of Zephyr's cohort are only pulling those who are Lost. They are CRAUs! Fully other godling world descriptions can be found HERE, but in summary:

Ajras, Realm of Tintin - Musical, Upbeat, Adventurous
Midnight, Realm of Nocturne - Nocturnal, Dual Natures, Hidden Sides
The Sunset Circus, Realm of Fovos - Fearful, Young, Misfits
Samudra, Realm of Blue - Unique, Flashy, Prideful, Confident
The Wild West, Realm of Ara - Inventors, Healers, Builders
Aria, Realm of Lalilia - Caregivers, Parents, Builders
Willowhispers, Realm of Tyvn - Artists, Misanthropes, Tech Savvy

2. Going forward, there may be the occasional new person collected from the Lost, but it will predominantly be a travel hub. Zephyr's efforts will be focused toward rescuing lost worlds and their gods, so not as much time to go hunting for a flock.

Thank you! So once the game goes into sandbox mode, would I be able to bring in the (far too numerous........) characters that I'd previously considered apping and just say their journey consisted of "other DWRP game -> other godling world -> making their way to the Meadous somehow", or will sandbox interaction be limited only to characters who are in-game at the time of endgame? (And if other characters will be allowed, will posting access be opened up, or would they only be able to comment around and not post?)

You can absolutely bring in other characters! We want this to be an open setting for folks. Posting on the comms is currently open. You do not have to be a member. But we will make them open so that anyone can join without mod approval.

Awesome, thanks!
