One of those intro posts

[seismometrics]

Hi! I'm K, and once upon a time (almost exactly a year ago?!) I played Toph on the turtle under dustonmyfeet. I've been enabled/lured back again due to Avatar-type people babbling on my timeline. Life's a little crazy that way. I always loved the game, though, and I'm excited to be back!

So have one Toph Bei Fong from Avatar: The Last Airbender. She'll be appearing on the turtle from the exact canon point she left from, which means all her previous memories of the turtle are intact.

. . . Basically this ends up meaning you get a Toph who fell asleep one night about a year ago in the Tushan plotline and will now wake up fast-forwarded to find all her CR vanished, Malicant defeated, and actual castmates from her own time. Please bear with her as she tries to wrap her brain around the paradigm shift. XD;

Looking forward to tackling new CR and all the shenanigans! <3 (Give me all of them, plz!) Also feel free to add me on Plurk at twistofmoirae!

Hello Tu Shanshu! My name is Gorse and I have never been here before! I was tempted here by Li during ATP so here I am!

I will be bringing in Xion from Kingdom Hearts aka that game with Disney and Final Fantasy where the running joke is that every character is one of three people. Xion herself is a replica made from the memories of the series' main protagonist, Sora, for really terrible purposes that she's unaware of. But that's a ways off for her. She's from roughly Day 265ish which means she just found out she's not who she thought she was, a lot of her future is still unknown to her.

Still if you want to befriend a sweet, shy girl who defends her friends to the death, has virtually no self-esteem, and is actually about 9 months old, Xion can very well be that girl.

Anyway, if you want to add me on plurk, I can be found there at gorsecloud. I'm looking forward to playing with you all!

EDIT: because I should know better than to try to squeeze in an OOC intro during my lunch break, Xion actually has some weirdness going on with how she appears to other people. Since according to Li when I asked, there apparently haven't been any KH characters in the past, this won't have a massive overall effect, however depending on how your character views/treats Xion it may have an impact on how they'll see her! SO I have a permissions post I'd be really grateful if you filled out! It explains how this'll work in further detail too. Thanks you!

Salutations, chelonauts! Mads here!

And thus I make my grand return to the turtle, bringing with me one Aqua of Kingdom Hearts canon! She's coming from shortly after the battle against the Dark Hide Heartless (it has a canon name now! Thank you, 2.5!) in the Realm of Darkness, meaning the poor girl's been wandering alone in a hostile dimension for about a year now, a stint which was preceded by some truly tragic events in her life. She doesn't let it get her down, though. Aqua is patient, strong-willed, kind, and maybe just a bit too self-sacrificing.

Aqua has the unique distinction of being the only main Kingdom Hearts character to not also be someone else at any point in time! She's also a Keyblade Master, which translates as her being considered one of the most skilled warriors in her series. She can certainly hold her own in a physical fight, but magic is her true prowess. No worries about her; Aqua is very firmly on the side of Good.

If you've got any questions, comments, want to plot, or want to know more about Kingdom Hearts in general (GOOD LUCK), I can be reached through PMs, or, more reliably, if you add me on plurk at madredhattie.

Looking forward to playing here again once more!

Landfall End!

As of the morning of Feb 12th, there is a shift in the winds and currents, and Tu Vishan's great form begins to be tugged back out to sea. The Khatronmanians are quick to alert any Foreigners still on the continent, recognizing the mood of the ocean, and their predictions are correct. By midday, the current has pulled Tu Vishan away from the shoreline and sent it drifting eastward, though the coast of Evidet remains visible for almost a day longer as it fades in the distance.

The emissaries remain in Keeliai, though they do make a point of watching Evidet recede into the distance, as if taking a moment to make their peace with the uncertainty of when they may see their homeland again.
