Hello everyone!
First, I just want to thank old members for returning and new members for deciding to join in on our fun. It’s been really awesome having everyone flood back here and watching all the new and old characters spring up. I have a couple of announcements for things that will start to pop up around here soon and things that may come to be in the near future.
Our map is back!
We have a map again! It can be checked out here!
More skins for everyone!
Two new skins are available. One is Forest themed, while the other is Moorland themed. These can be accessed in Profile>Edit Profile>Settings. Please tell me what you think about them and feel free to give me critique or suggestions. Enjoy!
New NPCs!
We have new monsters running around to eat your characters. Or just cause some good old havoc in general. If you haven't already seen our NPC thread, have a look at it here!
Board wide events!
I know everyone misses our pink lemonade rain, and the weather system is coming back to Lucid with a couple of changes. Weather will act a bit more like a board wide event, and sometimes the weather will be coupled with a few other things. These events can be brought into threads as everyone deems fit. There will also not be structured times for the weather to change, so it may stay up for several months to just two weeks. This keeps us staff from having to meet deadlines to make sure that it is updated, and means that things will run a bit smoother.
Who wants to talk to the big angry god?
I'm sure everyone has seen the Kukulcan account floating around. Your characters may stumble across Kukulcan in their travels and maybe have a chance to exchange a few words with him. It's much easier to encounter Kukulcan in certain areas of the board than it is in others, and stumbling into specific areas might just make him appear. Kukulcan's account will also act like a Random Event account as well. Essentially, this account is Kukulcan, but also the dream world itself. Open threads are places where this account may post to stir up trouble with some sort of strange world occurrence. This could be anything from a robot kicking someone in the shin to a giant spider dropping on someone's head, or maybe just a sudden rain shower.
This account can also be messaged if you would like to plot with Kukulcan, or need a NPC or event to trigger in one of your threads. I encourage everyone to make the creator of the dreamscape very angry.
Everything down here is being approached as a possible occurrence on the board, and being submitted for feedback. Please tell me what you think about these ideas and if you're interested in seeing them in play!
Colosseum events
Kukulcan is a god that is highly pleased by bloodshed. This is probably why he has made this place so very dangerous, but it also means that he would love to see some characters fight each other. Colosseum events will be completely optional. Staff will match up characters randomly to fight to the death in a ring, overseen by Kukulcan himself. The reward for coming out on top in these fights could be anything from going home, to abilities, to plain old favor with the God.
Though these fights will not involve stats, they will be a bit more structured than other fights. Characters in these events will be given a certain number of dodges and attacks to use as they see fit. Furthermore, these threads will be designed to function more as rapid fire threads. Not responding within 72 hours means that the other character automatically wins the fight, so it's important to ensure that you're able to post on time if you enter these events.
Canon characters?
Want a character that knows exactly what's going on around here? Characters from Kukulcan's world may be offered as playable characters at some point and have a limited number of slots.
