fourth wall.


FOURTH WALL

    Welcome to Cetana!

    Starting from November 3rd till the end of the month, we will be hosting our first Fourth Wall event. Players do not need to be invited by current players to participate in the event, so it is free for everyone to join. Membership to the communities will be open during the month so players may use whatever journal they like.

    Please use this post to introduce yourself and whatever characters you'd like to bring to the Fourth Wall. There will be two types of Fourth Wall characters for Cetana so please read the following to determine which group you want your character to fall under:

    CETANA OU

      These characters will be brought in as if they have just been accepted into the game. This is a good option for players who are unfamiliar with the Persona series, and/or prefer to be guided through Cetana mechanics via current characters.
      Please ensure that you read the FAQ for details on the characters' arrival.
      All characters must be Persona users, so please consult the Persona Info page to create one for your character.
      All characters will be allowed to keep their canon powers rather than being nerfed.
      All characters must follow the same appable rules that players are restricted to: no duplicates, no AUs asides from canon AUs or CRAU, and no crack characters.
      If players choose to app their characters, they may keep their memories from the Fourth Wall. Canon powers, however, will be nerfed. Players may also use any threads during the Fourth Wall as bonus activity if they plan to app their character during or the month after the event.

    CETANA AU

      These characters will be brought in from a parallel version of Hirajiro with several month's experience as Persona users. Characters will arrive at the original Hirajiro through November's dungeon. More details about the arrival, dungeon, and major plot differences between the AU and OU worlds will be posted in the dungeon log on November 3rd.
      The AU version of Hirajiro will be near-identical to the OU version, but with minor details, such as an abundance of dogs rather than cats, fewer crows, more residents, location and appearance of the Velvet Room, and such on. Players are allowed to create their own details for the town setting as long as they are reasonable.
      Key details that cannot be changed about the AU Hirajiro: the first two dungeons took place in the school and the lake; the Daitengus of those two dungeons were the same as the OU versions; and locations that exist in all versions of Hirajiro include the occult shop, castle, and shrine, although they may be in different places.
      All characters must be Persona users, so please consult the Persona Info page to create one for your character.
      All characters will be allowed to keep their canon powers rather than being nerfed.
      All characters must follow the same appable rules that players are restricted to: no duplicates, no AUs asides from canon AUs or CRAU, and no crack characters.
      If players choose to app their characters, they may keep their memories from the Fourth Wall. Canon powers, however, will be nerfed. Players may also use any threads during the Fourth Wall as bonus activity if they plan to app their character during or the month after the event. In addition, characters will discover that they can no longer leave OU Hirajiro to return to their AU Hirajiro after their acceptance into the game.

    Please fill out the form below and feel free to plot things out with others! More details about the dungeon will go up on November 1st and the actual log will go up on the 3rd so please keep an eye out. If you have any questions or concerns, please comment underneath the appropriate top-level.

    Have fun!

LOL poor kido... at least terry will believe her. terrence also has the longbow since that was originally his and his pinpointing has no buffer so he's here to attack everyone and have a good time

[personal profile] reveilation 2019-10-26 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Kido is so sick and tired of you megaten protag lookalikes
she's going to keep stabbing every terry in the eye, regardless of if it's him or his original or kano

YELLS IN PROTEST

BECAUSE I CAN'T TELL IF YOU'RE SERIOUS OR NOT maybe i should assume you're always serious and terry will cry like usual

[personal profile] reveilation 2019-10-26 06:48 pm (UTC)(link)
schrödinger's seriousness... we won't know until kido is dead

[personal profile] overdrain 2019-10-26 06:53 pm (UTC)(link)
internally cries

but i do want them to meet once before kido gets dragged to the bottom circle of hell that's gonna be her shadow floor

[personal profile] reveilation 2019-10-26 06:57 pm (UTC)(link)
we'll make it happen...
she'll just set aside everything she learned from the audio diaries and try to throttle him and he can be part of the reason why nekogami finally goes "OKAY so i'm going to take over from now on bc i'm sick of you dying and being dead"
i'll probably have her shadow event ICly set on 11-15th probably, so it should be enough time!

kido repeatedly dying and terry not being around for her death in hirajiro will hit him so hard TIME TO BE SAD AGAIN

i guess that also means he's gonna try and set kido's shadow floor on fire too with blazing hell because the cold is annoying and he's not done until the meta kicks him out

[personal profile] reveilation 2019-10-26 07:16 pm (UTC)(link)
he was there the last time she died (':

but yeah, please burn down her dungeon because the place is just ice and being cold is miserable

..... okay yeah that was terrible TERRY NEEDS TO SEE KIDO TOO AAAAAAAAAAAAAA

AS A PERSON

NOT A DOG

hot vs cold hells are gonna duke it out. exciting!! also, for any setting changes that need to be reported, does it need to be threaded out? i'm assuming no, but... yeah

[personal profile] reveilation 2019-10-26 07:26 pm (UTC)(link)
WE'LL MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN haha


It depends on what sort of setting change! Stuff like Sasuke regaining the torii, 45 throwing the lanterns into the lake to set it on fire (since it's only temporary, it won't be reflected on the actual locations page, but there's a note in the log about it) or Terry purifying the lake with shrine water (which will be reflected on the locations page since it's permanent) are fine to just report since we know where it's coming from, but for any other major things that happen, we'll likely ask for a thread that explains how it happened and why!

terry and terrence shouldn't be having magical archery battles in the forest i'm assuming...


also would natsuo be dumb and try to interact with terrence because

looks at him

looks at natsuo too

[personal profile] reveilation 2019-10-26 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
They *shouldn't* be, but will they.............

Natsuo is absolutely dumb enough to interact with Terrence, he is that person who will get stabbed and then greet the person the next day with a bright sunshine smile. He's very loud and annoying... but he's very very quiet and serious when he fights, and he's a strong and efficient fighter, so maybe if they interact mostly in the dungeons it'll be fine (':

is this a case of Schrodinger's crater in the forest

going off the screencaps i saw in your plurk, i assume terrence will just watch him in the dungeon while doing his own thing and buying earplugs and pretending to listen to natsuo outside of it

[personal profile] reveilation 2019-10-26 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
yes. if anybody ever needs a forest crater for threading purposes, there's suddenly a crater

lmfao yeah, that's the way to deal with him, just let him fight when he needs to and pretend to listen when he's not fighting. terrence would quickly learn that natsuo is very easy to manipulate if he ever needs somebody like that, all you have to do is smile at natsuo and lie that you're his friend and he will die for you and do whatever unsavory thing you need him to do

if there were dungeon puzzles, he'd just tell natsuo to get all the coins and pick up the slack if he ever dies in the process because he's terrible

[personal profile] reveilation 2019-10-26 07:50 pm (UTC)(link)
asdflkjh natsuo is dumb and would try to brute force all the puzzles bUT HE'S TENACIOUS!! his saving grace is that he's stubborn and won't ever give up, all he wants is praise and if he can get terrence to smile at him by bringing him a coin, he will tear apart the entire dungeon to get that coin
