→ GENERAL MOD NOTES

Welcome to the fourth month of Cetana! We are now approximently a third way into game so we hope that you are all enjoying it so far. We are back on an off-dungeon month so we have a few events planned for you. Please read these announcements carefully. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to ask them in the comments.

⬥ There is a new set of requests from the Velvet Room assistants. As a reminder, unless specified otherwise in the specific request, there are no deadlines for turning in threads so please feel free to submit them whenever you please.

⬥ Due to the coin mission thread requirement not being reached in September, the remaining ~~three~~ two threads (~~Caution~~, Critical Thinking, Strength) must be fulfilled by October 14. Players who have submitted threads for the previous month may submit a maximum of two threads again this month. These new threads must start in October and may be submitted under the same thread reporting toplevel. Players may create new threads in the September dungeon log, in their inboxes, or in any other posts. Once the thread requirement has been reached, the boss thread will be posted and players may submit threads fr the regular dungeon requirement.

⬥ The dungeon thread requirement is 10 threads across the entire player base with a maximum of 2 threads turned in per player, containing at least 5 comments from you and may not overlap with the coin threads. Threads may involve battling, healing, exploring, discussing, etc as long as the characters interact with the dungeon in some way. The thread reporting toplevel will be posted with the posting of the boss thread.

⬥ The calendar for September is as follows:

→ SETTING CHANGES

⬥ The following characters have been dropped from the game:

claytools

rabbeats

evoltlution

crimess

laconism

16lab

These characters may still be found within Hirajiro, but in a semi-responsive vegetative state. They will lose their sense of being and be highly apathetic.

In addition, these are the following changes within the setting:

⬥ With the failure to summon the boss from September, heavy rainfall will pour throughout the month, causing the lake to overflow and flood the town. The townspeople will have to relocate to buildings with multiple stories and both the (haunted) inn and (haunted) school will open its doors for refugees.

⬥ Sometime last month, a torii can be found in the middle of the forest. It appears to have been struck by lightning and is in rough shape, but it's still miraculously standing.

→ OCTOBER 3 - FLOOD, FESTIVAL, BLACKOUT

On the night of October 3rd, the flood will begin and characters may assist the townspeople in filling up sandbags to place around the town's preimeters, especially as they may be the only ones capable of doing so. The poisonous lakewater will cause many townspeople to fall sick and they will be unaffected by the Velvet Room attendant's poison-curing tea.

From October 11 to 12, the townspeople will be desperate enough from the rain to hold a Paantu Festival, in hopes that they can reverse their bad luck. They will dress up in costume and throw sticky mud at others, hoping to spread good luck and scare away evil spirits. A few of these costumed creatures will reveal themselves as actual demons who will spread some mischief. At the same time, townspeople start to go missing, along with the owners of the occult shop. Good luck trying to earn money for your dungeon loot now.

On October 14, there will be a town-wide blackout (asides from the hospital). Things just keep on getting better and better.

This log will be posted on October 3.

→ OCTOBER 13 - GAME-WIDE SHADOW EVENT

Haki will be running our first game-wide Shadow Event for Terrence Nowell with a forward-dated IC day. She will be posting the log on October 13 so please look forward to it! There will be no game-wide repurcussions if Terrence's Shadow is not defeated by the end of the month, but there will probably be some repurcussions for Terrence. Probably. Haha.

Threads in this log may count towards your dungeon thread requirement of AC. We hope that you will all have fun!

→ OCTOBER 28 - SPOOKY SCARY SKELETONS

How could we possibly do nothing for Halloween?

Thankfully, towards the end of the month, the rain will finally subside and everyone will be able to walk outside without water pouring into their shoes. To lighten up the dreary mood from the rainfall, the town will host a fun little event for Halloween. Everyone will get a stamp card that will lead them across Hirajiro and end in the shrine. When characters arrive, they will discover a few clues that will give further insight into the plot and maybe find themselves trapped for three IC days while dealing with some of their worst fears.

Sounds like fun!

This log will be posted ahead of time on October 28.
