All game-relevant updates will be posted on lostcompass, but you can also consider following eastbound. There is an informal optional game discord server — you’ll get a private message with an invite, once you comment to the Taken List.
Like it says on the application page tin — you can have a maximum of three characters in the game, and you can invite one new person in per month.
If you’re not already served on that front, we have some custom codes to help you set up a character inbox or permissions post. Both are entirely optional, and feel free to customise at will!
Your character is exempted from activity requirements this month.
INTRO: good Kanesada, meet Fluffy. Fluffy is a great addition to the recently started Hunting season and has spent a few years in loyal service to the Beastmaster. Fluffy is also vampiric, perpetually hungry, immense, and prone to hopping onto his target to suck their bloooooood after blitzing in their pursuit. He is of modest size but great ambitions.
He is also immediately targeting Kanesada and exclusively chasing him for the better part of the night when poor Kanesada awakens, in the middle of a haunted forest. As one does. To his luck, he can encounter a communication and translation device quickly on the forest ground — alongside the gored remains of Fluffy’s previous victim. Run, Kanesada, run — or better yet, find help from other Ke-Waihu hunt participants, and together survive the night. Remember: Fluffy will join other hunters after Kanesada across all the Hunt days that Kanesada participates in.
…Fluffy will also pretend pure innocence, come morning, or if Kanesada ever runs into him while Fluffy is in the Beastmaster’s village entourage. Fluffy’s the worst.
Once he reaches the village of Ke-Waihu in the morning, Kanesada is taken in by Taksui, who recognises him as an otherworlder. Taksui informs him he has reached the world of Akhuras, where undead contingents fight each other and the living for control. The undead factions summon otherworldly reinforcements, to enslave or weaponise them in the conflict. Taksui serves as liaison to the elusive Merchant, who finds and transports such newcomers east, where beacons might return the visitors back to their home worlds.
Kanesada is introduced as a new member of the Ke-Waihu village and asked to or tricked into drinking an elixir that will let him take over and atone for the sins of a village ancestor. Devout villagers believe this will gradually right the wrongs that have infected the community. You can find his ancestral curse here — enjoy figuring out how to atone for it! Check out how ancestral curses manifest and decide which of his two sins you’d like to play with.
Kanesada has also received a ’family unit’ and housing assignment. The villagers of Ke-Waihu believe the housemates are genuinely part of a family or clan — so try to cozy up.
ACCEPTED
