Regardless of what you were in the middle of, you and your familiar have been magically pulled into the world of Avalon just above the Bay's slightly chilled waters. After a brief plunge into the Bay, the rush of water filling your ears and soaking up into every creak and crevice of your body, you may need to cough to clear your airways when you rise above the surface. It's still chilly, but not enough that you can't manage on your own. The Lady of the Lake is swimming around under the water, but seems to be focusing on coordinating a band of chia manatees to help rescue any wayward new arrivals. Chia manatees are a special Avalonian manatee that is green in color and has what appears to be a patches of grass or other short plantlife growing on its back. While some are fully green, others sport small flower blossoms that haven't yet grown in or various types of mushrooms. If anyone tries to ask the Lady of the Lake for directions, she will direct you to Archimedes at the Rent-a-Ride. Those with animal magic may get their info from the manatees, though may notice that they're really overly friendly and have zero concept of personal boundaries. Everyone may notice they have no concept of personal space, as they will happily run right into someone's belly for a snoot squishing. The shores themselves are littered with new arrivals complaining their way up a staircase carved into the walls of the White Cliffs. There is no railing, so be careful, but if you do fall, be prepared for a mysterious sand hand to reach out of the side of the cliffs to catch you. The hand will pat you atop the head twice before retreating back into the wall. This is the Cliff Beast; despite the name, he is quite friendly. *Reminder: Your character's familiar may or may not be with your character in their initial plunge. If the familiar isn't partial to water, it may meet your character on the beach or sit atop their head while they swim. Or if they are, they might splash about and swim alongside your character. Familiars have different personalities and body specs and we leave those up to the players. B ⦿ The Caravan to Camelot Once everyone is wrangled up to the top of the White Cliffs, the handsome owner of the Rent-a-Ride, Archimedes, will distribute smart phones and a pair of earbuds and tell them to "Check the Shit Box." The "Shit Box" refers to wardrobe more formally known as the Wardrobe of Finding, a hammerspace-like wardrobe that opens to each person's items and pets when the person touches the handle. It was recently enchanted by Merlin to prevent people from having to fish their waterlogged possessions and pets out of the water with them. From there, Archimedes directs everyone to settle in groups into modernized carriages pulled by horses and gives them a basic explanation of why and how they've been brought to Avalon: The rest of the universe is frozen in time and your character has been brought here by a familiar that was able to bond with them. They'll have to learn magic to help save their own world from destruction, but first they've got to get them to Camelot. It is here that you have the first opportunity to decide who they will be in their new home. You'll have about an hour to wander around here, meet and greet, and pet the horses before it's time to go. These carriages use fae technology that combats weight, so your character will be able to get in regardless of whether they're light as a feather or weigh two tons. The carts have air conditioning when it's hot, heating when it's cold, and a mystical shield to protect from bugs. There is also a mini-bar that pops out of the console with nip bottles. Characters can use their smartphones to connect to Camelot's internet service, avalononline (AOL), to chat with other characters, watch dumb videos, learn about the world, contact Camelot Support (they'll answer any questions they can for you, from how to use a smart phone to where to find quests and resources to learn more about your magic). Be careful if you decide to use your phones while in the caravan-- if you don't use those earbuds and start forcing everyone to listen to your nonsense, Archimedes may make you walk. C ⦿ The Red Spring The journey from the White Cliffs to the City of Camelot is a long one, and the first evening you arrive you'll end up spending at the Red Spring, a booming resort town. Because of the volume of new arrivals and vacationers, inn rooms are assigned two-to-a-room. The rooms have two twin beds, a bathroom, a mini-fridge and microwave, and a TV equipped with a couple of entertaining video games and a few free movies. If you don't want to relax in the room, try taking a dip in the spring for another chance to meet your fellow travelers. The waters have restorative properties that help horses and travelers recover quickly when drunk. It is known to relieve stress, improve energy levels, and mildly accelerate healing. It may be a little chilly when you get out though, so make sure you don't slip rushing back indoors when you get out! The springs are also home to a large training grounds just outside town limits, where there are teachers who will teach basic magic safety and help you discover what kind of magic you have together with other new arrivals. Try target practice, obstacle courses, meditation circles, and other ways to try to figure out just what you can do... if you didn't already have an accidental discovery on the ride there. The Isle of Avalon is abuzz with excitement for the upcoming Spring Equinox (though some of the more posh citizens will insist it's the Vernal Equinox, tut tut). Unlike the very specific rituals of the Winter Solstice that require much preparation, the Spring is welcomed throughout the month through a variety of small rituals to help the world along as it renews itself, growing new plants and allowing nature to make new life. A ⦿ The Lesser Banishing of Frost Fairies Throughout February, the Frost Fairies were running amok and keeping things chilly, even awarding those who gave them treats last month. These fairies create ice crystals on contact and can be spotted by the beautiful ice crystal patterns that form in their trail. They cause frost bite if you physically touch them, so capture isn't recommended. They seem to be sticking around a little too long this month, as they're normally supposed to leave at the end of February. No one seems alarmed, as it seems that this happens from time to time. It's easy enough to deal with-- and so, people throughout town are being asked to perform a ritual called the Lesser Banishing of Frost Fairies. It's perfectly safe, and lets these invisible little creatures be sent on their way until the next winter. The first step: create bait. Fill a planter with dusty miller and silver sage, with a night-blooming flower at the center. The silvery-white leaves pique the curiosity of the Frost Fairies because they look snowy, yet when they see the flower bloom, they know it cannot be. The plants won't be damaged at all in the ritual, so you'll get a moon garden out of it, which can be incidentally draw adorable little moon rabbit kits in to play inside your home while the moon is out. They're friendly, though they do tend to enjoy pack-sized snuggles-- you may find yourself stuck with no fewer than 15 rabbits attempting to climb on you for attention and need someone's help to pull them off. You may need to get them under control before you continue with the ritual. Once you've assembled your miniature moon garden, you'll need to find a stranger to perform the ritual. You need to bring a new energy into your home in order to let the Frost Fairies know that it's time to meet something new. Take hands with the new person and dance in circles around the miniature moon garden. The plants will start to glow and the Frost Fairies will become visible-- short, fat, all-white penguin with flamingo-length legs and icicle crowns. They will immediately challenge you and your summoning partner to a duel! Though, you can pick what kind of challenge it is as their culture dictates. They're pretty overconfident, just remember not to pick something that involves touching them unless you want to end up needing a healer. B ⦿ The Language of Flowers Once the Frost Fairies are properly banished, flowers are starting to crop up all around Camelot, the Broceliande, the fields in between, and those who come back to the White Cliffs after arrival will even find the Cliff Beast in a pleasant mood from all the lovely little flowers hanging off of his clifftop. (No one's quite sure how a cliff seems happy, but that's the sense everyone gets.) Wherever you may be, there are flowers starting to crop up. Normally, this would be when people would start gathering decorations to cover the buildings and make flower altars, but a lot of the wild flowers normally accessible... well... It looks like a brood of dragons hatched a little early and, upon seeing all the flowers start to crop up, decided that these flowers are the treasures that they want to hoard. The baby dragons didn't fly too far down from their mountain, but once one of them flew past the Lands of Rot and found the fields of flowers, it got its siblings. Now there are a handful of baby dragons claiming different areas as their hoard and making it impossible to get around without being attacked by an admittedly cute fire-breathing menace. No one wants the baby dragons slain, but the baby dragons need to be brought back to their mother's cave in the Ash Mountains. The safest way is through the half-dead area between the Dusklight Woods and the Lands of Rot. The dragons will attack anyone who comes into their area but seem to be friendly toward anyone wearing a flower crown, as they seem to accept them as a part of their hoard if the flowers send the right message. Use the language of flowers to communicate with the dragons and try to get them to follow you by wearing a flower crown that matches one you offer to the dragon. A flower crown that says sympathy and sadness might not be as effective as something that says virtue and bravery. Just be careful not to woo them the wrong impression with something that says eternal love and devotion, or you might have a different kind of dragon problem... Regardless, since the dragons are guarding the flowers you need to make the crowns out of, you'll need to find a way to get past their attacks to gather flowers to begin with to find the flowers you want to make your crown with. Flower crowns need at least two types of flowers to communicate with the dragons, so it's recommended you work together with others to try to gather as many flowers as you can to find the flowers you need. Thankfully, since dragons are sacred, most of the Dusklight Woods creatures will leave you alone, so it's best to hug that side of the mixed path. You and whoever you're working with only have to worry about fighting alongside the baby dragons to fight off the Land of Rot creatures that hang around the edge: Skeleton warriors that can only be scattered but not killed, Fogueria (a lion made of fire that likes to play with its food in sadistic ways), and rattlesnakes. Once you're at the foot of the Ash Mountains, the baby dragons will fly back up to their cave on their own. With the baby dragons returned to their nest, you can head home, and the townsfolk can start decorating for the Spring Equinox. C ⦿ Spiritual Cleansing The frost is gone, the flowers are free, and rabbits are running around town like they own the place. All of the physical and symbolic spring equinox preparations are made, now it's time to look within. As the season of renewal and rebirth, a huge part of that is personal reflection and growth. As such, outdoor meditation and yoga flash parties are all the rage right now. Get caught it one and you and anyone around you will be stuck in a barrier until you complete at least 5 yoga poses and hold them for 30 seconds each. Some of them are a little challenging.. thankfully, no one is going to stop you from getting help holding them from someone else who's stuck with you. A plague of smoothie hockers has also cropped up around town, which means portable carts offering different magical smoothies is going around selling their fruity and flowery spring flavors for a refreshing boost of your spirit. No, really boost it. The magical effects are in small text underneath the flavors, so they may be easy to miss. Hibiscus-Berry: Vanity Spirit (person may become temporarily obsessed with appearance, finding cute clothes, getting their hair and nails done, needing to be their ideal of attractive) Strawberry-Rose: Romantic Spirit (flirtiness, desire to be romantic with someone) Jasmine-Peach: Friendship Spirit (go out of your way to make new friends, make grand friendship gestures to people you've already befriended or have known for five minutes and want to befriend) Lavender-Mulberry: Distrusting Spirit (paranoid, may start fights because they think someone is out to get them) Butterfly Pea-Lemon Tea: Meditative Spirit (fall asleep easily, peaceful/relaxed about alarming things, sudden penchant for Big Thoughts about the universe) Dandelion-Apple-Banana: Surivival Spirit (sudden desire to do everything yourself, whether that's hunting/gathering food, getting really into DIY projects like making your own soap or building your own chicken hutch because you're going to get your own eggs, or really wanting to live outside for a while) The effects only last for an hour or two, so it's unlikely any real damage can be done (hopefully) but it'll certainly give you a new outlook on life! Spring is in the air, the Equinox is coming, and prep is underway. But all work and no play can get a little boring, right? Avalonians have come together and set up a few activities for Adventurers. While all of these activities can be completed and enjoyed without using magic, participants will be encouraged do to so, don’t worry if it goes a little haywire. There are magical force fields around the play zones to contain any mishaps. A ⦿ Keep it Rollin' Rollin' The first area set up for fun and games is a barrel rolling contest. Participants are split into pairs to compete against each other to see who can roll their partner inside the barrel down the hill and across the finish line the fastest. Springtime is when geysers start bursting around the bottom of the hill though, so you'll have to watch out for those and any boulders to make sure your barrel doesn't burst before you reach the bottom! To make things a little more interesting, the planners had a bit of mischief with the barrels... As barrels reach a quarter of a way down the hill, the outside will burst into flames. Surprise! While they are enchanted so that the flames aren't actually hot, participants are not aware of this. Sorry, the guys running this game aren’t that big on explaining; after all, it’s just rolling a fire barrel down the hill; what’s so complicated? Fire makes it look like it's going faster and is way more exciting to watch! B ⦿ Hop Skip and a Jump Everyone loves hopscotch, right? Well, whether you do or don’t, that next zone is all about the hop, the skip, and the jump. Two hopscotch boards about the size of a basketball court each are laid out side by side for participants. The object again, to see who can complete the task that fastest. If you reach a spot with a magic symbol, you have to cast a spell at your opponent or you can't proceed. This is combat hopscotch! Of course, once more, the folks running the show forgot to mention one tiny thing, a quarter of the way into the board, random spots will drop away as you go, leaving holes in the ground! Yikes, better take that leap! Don’t worry, if you miss, the bottom of the hole is filled with marshmallow fluff in bright pink, yellow, and pastel purple. (Kind of reminds you of something, huh...?) Down in the hole are rungs and footholds to get yourself back out, but boy, will that put you behind the other guy if they didn’t fall. Well, guess victory will have to be a little sweeter than you planned! C ⦿ Gettin' Brewy With It Now, this activity probably seems a little safer. Welcome to the “Brew” tent. Participants will be given ingredients, space, and set up in pairs to brew up a tasty drink! A variety of ingredients are available and with it, participants will be taught the Recipe: Brewery. This spell can be used to accelerate brewing and distilling processes for alcoholic drinks. Of course, if someone who is too young to drink according to their world's rules, any alcohol in the drink will evaporate, so it's really only a spell that's useful for adults... but everyone can participate in making drinks. You can pick any ingredients you want, but all participants are instructed that a sprinkle of that magic at just the right time will make it perfect. When asked what the right time is, all they will be told is they’ll know when. Some may get it right, depending on instinct. Others might sprinkle too much and cause the drink to burst all over them and their partner, and their workstation or have some other silly side effect, like make them hiccup uncontrollably or catch a case of the giggles. Or maybe they cast for too long or too short a time and the drink turns sour, turns to ash, grows wings on the cup, and flies away. Brewery magic can be fickle, so there's lots that can go wrong.. but get it right, and you can have one heck of a drink to enjoy!

Makoto Kino | Sailor Moon | Elemental | Raiju Familiar

[roseeclair]

A. Soaking in Your Arrival

[Makoto’s first thought? (Well, besides OH GOD COLD COLD COLD SALTWATER BLECH!) These manatees are way too cute! She can’t stop laughing even as she tries to hold onto one and two more come in to tickle her with whiskery snoots.]

PAHAHA! C-come on, guys, you’re gonna make me fall o-ho-hoff!

[Still… even as she guffaws, something feels off. She doesn’t feel weak… but somehow she knows she can’t swim herself all the way to shore, even though she should. And the chia manatees… well, their plants anyway. Maybe it’s because they’re technically water plants but… she can’t feel anything. Not even the faint affinity she has for them when she’s not transformed.

But… she does feel a pull, like she would towards the girls, or a thunderstorm, and that’s when she looks to the shore. A large green and white bear glows and crackles with electricity, but even then looks out placidly onto the bay and the manatees and the new arrivals they’re ferrying, as if watching for someone. Watching… for her.]

Whoa… who are you?

B. The Lesser Banishing of Frost Fairies

[If you’re looking for a partner to help you with your ritual… well, good news is Makoto’s certainly willing… the bad news is she’s currently pinned to the floor by a swarm of very vicious little moonbun kits. Apparently it’s just Mako’s week to get glommed on by random magical animals. (Or the kits sense that this human has lots of prior experience caring for a Tsuki no Usagi of her own.)]

O-okay okay, you guys are really cute, but I’ve gotta—EEK!

[Apparently one found her ribs. So merciless. Meanwhile, a bear with small electrical sparks flying off its glowing green coat sits by her head and just… looking at its human and back at you with an indiscernible look, either very hungry or very bored. Or both, maybe both. Please help the silly human get up…]

C. The Language of Flowers

[Okay so far? Helping save the universe here is a lot easier than back home. Making cute flower arrangements to help lure cute magical creatures to wherever they need to be? She could definitely get used to this. And it really helps that she’s not alone in this; not just the host of other people from other worlds, but that Usagi is here too. It helps her feel grounded even with her connection to Jupiter gone… well, at least she’s relearning how to control lightning, and she can still retrain her strength, and she can definitely still care for plants like she used to.]

Oh hey! Think we should use irises if we find any? Those mean “I’ve got a message for you,” so it’d be kind of a “hey, listen up!” you know?

D. Wildcard

[[Got something in mind other than the prompts listed here? Feel free to message Makoto’s journal and we can plot things out!]]

Flowers

[tempredmental]

[Keith gave Makoto a rather helpless look, shrugging slightly at her suggestion.]

If you say so.

[Keith was not a master of the language of flowers. He needed help.. a lot of it.]

[roseeclair]

[For once, Keith's obliviousness might be a good thing, since uh... he's very cute. And Makoto's Achilles heel is cute guys. But she at least tries to play it cool because right, mission. And the fact that this guy seems awkward. Maybe a bit too awkward.]

Everything okay?

[tempredmental]

Well... I don't really know anything about this kind of stuff. So, if you know anything... [He shrugged.] It's up to you.

[roseeclair]

[A soft chuckle.] That's okay. Not a lot of people do, at least back where I'm from. I'm just kind of a gardening nerd.

[And a bouquet nerd, and also kind of the Guardian of the Wood Planet, but shhhh.]

Kino Makoto, by the way.

[tempredmental]

I guess I got paired with the right person, then. [He nodded a bit at her name.] I'm Keith. [He offered his hand.]

[roseeclair]

[[Continued here.]]

B

[wolfhunted]

[It's a good thing Robyn has animal magic here, since they're dealing with so many bunnies.]

Alright, you lot. You need to get off her now.

[That seems to work for most of the bunnies, who obediently start giving Makoto some space, but she'll probably still have a few of them glomming onto her. It looks like Robyn still needs to practice this part of her magic.]

(GASP!) Oh no, Robyn~~~

[roseeclair]

[Okay phew... at least with just this many, Makoto can scoop them up into her arms and sit up.]

Phew! Thanks. [She moves from sitting up to kneeling so she can gently set the kits back on the ground.] Geez, they're cute but there's a lot of them. [One of the kits hops onto her again and tries to nuzzle her cheek, prompting more giggling.] A-hand they tickle!

[Again, very much like her moon rabbit, just in swarm form.]

[wolfhunted]

They really are everywhere lately...I know rabbits can have a lot of babies at once, but I've never seen so many in one place.

[Robyn has hunted rabbits plenty of times with her father, of course, but...this probably isn't the best time to bring that up. And hunting rabbits isn't allowed here this month, anyway.]

[roseeclair]

[Another laugh as she puts the fierce little lagomorph down on the ground with its kin and stands up... and she is quite tall indeed, only four years taller than Robyn and already 5'6".]

Neither have I. [Another laugh, this one more like a private joke.] Back home I'm used to only dealing with one, maybe two at a time. I got way outnumbered.

[wolfhunted]

[Whoa, she's tall...even if Robyn's already used to her father towering over her back home. Maybe spending time with Mebh has put her off guard, since Mebh is already shorter than her.]

Really? Are there not many rabbits where you're from?

[roseeclair]

[Another smile down at the girl.]

I mean in general they're common, yeah, but I live in the city back home. And, uh, it's kind of a pun. One of my friends, her name means "Moon Rabbit". [She gestures to the kits before them.] She's about as aggressively cuddly as these guys too.

[So it's probably gonna be a day or two before Makoto stops being quite as amused by the coincidence.]

C

[saxsongs]

[Ren is happy to have someone there who understands the language of flowers even better than he does. He has some experience due to giving flowers to people he likes.]

That's a good idea. Maybe also a Hibiscus? We do want them to think we're good people.

[roseeclair]

[One day Makoto's brain will not automatically shut down for a few seconds every time Usagi's- GORGEOUS~!- boss talks to her. Today is not that day.]

Ah... y-yeah! Yeah, that's a good pick too! M-maybe something for honesty or cheerfulness too?

[saxsongs]

[It probably doesn't help he has such a charming smile.]

Oh, I saw some violets when we came here. They mean honesty, don't they?

[roseeclair]

[And cue dumb nod.]

White ones do. Some flowers have different meanings depending on the color. Yellow ones would be nice too, since they mean happiness.

["Rural happiness," she means. .... Which... could either be an excellent "go back to the wild lands" message, or accidentally say that the flower fields are a nice place to stay, especially coupled with hibiscus. Maybe more flowers will help.]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[starshaper]

[Usagi makes the trip back the arrivals area every month to see if anyone from home just happens to be there. So far she hasn't seen anyone since arriving here from another world in December but she's never giving up hope and besides, it's nice to welcome any new people here! So even if she doesn't find anyone from her home world, she never knows when she finds any new friends among the new arrivals.

The moon rabbit notices the electric bear and instantly walks closer to it with an excited "Waaaaaah!!" and a wide smile on her face.]

Hello! You're really pretty, no that's an understatement, you look amazing! Woooow, you know you really remind me of one of my best friends, Mako-chan, she's just as adorable as you and she can really strike the strongest punches too!

[Is that a bad pun? Oh well...]

Ah, where's your bonded one? I really can't wait to meet anyone with familiar like you~! Hey hey, where are you looking at?

[She is rambling a lot but that's nothing new and at least she also finally turns to look into the water area too...]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[roseeclair]

[The bear just... blinks for a second, god this human talks a lot and FAST. But it react much more than plopping himself in the sand and looking back out to the shore. Right about the time when...

When Makoto is finally close enough to the shore to be able to see those familiar pigtails flowing like banners... and to be able to drop off of the manatee into sand beneath the shallow surf.]

Usagi-chan...?

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[starshaper]

[Whaaaaaat? No reaction? Well, it is somehow what she expects too, since that one's clearly a familiar and not a pet... Doesn't mean Usagi would stop trying, talking a lot and fast sure is her thing. The girl flails her arms like she's still trying to get attention here!]

Hey, what now?! We can look together! Oooooor maybe you can tell them, that I would really love to meet them? Not that I don't want to he friends with you too because of course I want t--!

[That's about when she hears a familiar voice and she almost thinks she's dreaming even when she sees her there. Usagi dreams about these new arrival meetings a lot; how they all would arrive here one day as if nothing bad had ever happened back home. It's better than all of her endlessly repeating nightmares of everything bad happening, even if waking up from those sweet dreams isn't nice at all...

She almost feels like she forgets how to breathe for a moment. Makoto? Here? Maybe it's yet another dream but Usagi stares in surprise for one moment.]

Mako-chan. . .?

[She looks like her. She actually is the real her and not some evil clone this time, yes? Please let this be real, please let this be real! She'll find out later! Right now? She rushes towards Makoto to throw her arms around her.]

MAKO-CHAAAAAN! You're here~!

[roseeclair]

[OOF! Yup, that is definitely an Usagi hug, and between the swim and... whatever is making her feel weak, she almost get topped over. But thankfully she's able to hold her ground and return the hug back. Honestly... it's a relief to see Usagi-chan too, since her last memory is being resurrected in that vortex of light after... well, everything involving hers and Ami's Crystals being stolen, and... maybe flashes of having to fight Eternal Sailor Moon.

But right now it honestly doesn't matter. She's alive again, and Usagi is safe and hugging her tight, and now she can return the favor again.]

Yeah... Yeah, I'm here. I'm here. Thank you...

[starshaper]

[It feels like she hasn't seen her or anyone else from home in... Forever. But especially not her or Minako, Rei or Ami since she never saw any of them in Lunatia either and Usagi's been here for almost longer than she was there before arriving here.

So she's clinging like a koala with that hug for a moment, she's so happy and relieved to see her and she never even expects to see anyone here. Hopes, for sure, but no one ever knows who they pull in to these other worlds or if they ever pull anyone besides one person from one world... But Makoto is real and alive and heeeeeeeeeere!! She's getting an emotional hug, doesn't even mind at all if it takes a moment from her to return it and Usagi's taking her moment to just be there, breathe and everything else before she says anything.]

You're here and so far that's Avalon's best surprise ever! [Wait, what?] Hmm? Why are you thanking me?

[Usagi could take a wild guess but she might also be too slow to guess it...]

Frost Faries, adding to the pile!

[morganknight]

Uh-oh.

[Girl down! Girl down! Morgan zips on over, dropping to one knee next to her.]

Hey, come on there little guys, you're going down the path of evil like this. [Luckily, they aren't doing a very good job of hiding, so Morgan just scoops one up gently, then sets it aside and shoos it off.]

[roseeclair]

[Moon bunnies? Evil? That's... okay only possible a handful of times but it's frightening when it happens.

Still, at least the kit is fine with being picked up and set down on the ground... only to immediately skip back onto Makoto.]

Haha yeah, they're pretty clingy aren't they?

[morganknight]

Oh, this won't do. You need a sacred guardian.

[And Morgan has just the answer! Reaching into the pocket of his coat, he produces -- a hydra! Nine heads, surprisingly cute, and when he puts it on the girl's stomach, surprisingly light. But the bunnies don't much care for the beast as it glares at them.]
