Hello, citizens of Etraya.

Our next mission will begin on Friday, January 16th.

You will be visiting a planet called Mesa for two weeks. This planet has been used as a sanctuary for countless different species, set up centuries ago by a society that no longer exists. The universe has been crumbling for some time, and Echo had to make the difficult decision to let it go. However, many of the species residing on Mesa are ones that have not been replicated across other universes, and Echo would like to preserve what they can of them.

You will be placed into teams and given assignments around the planet of DNA and items to gather. I will drop all of you off outside a facility a few of my companion bots have been working to outfit for your safety. This building has lights surrounding it, and I would like for all of you to be aware how important light is on this planet. There is no visible moon, and after the sun falls, the darkness is dangerous. Do not linger in shadows. Do not venture beyond where you are able to bring light.

Please stock up with as many survival supplies as you believe you would need for these two weeks. I will be opening the portal large enough to bring mid-sized vehicles through, so you may take with you any cars, motorcycles, chocobos, and other means of transportation.

Thank you,
Aurora

Mission Summary

Genre: Survival / Spooky / Mystery

Premise: Mesa is a wild, lawless land of megafauna, from feathered dinosaurs to redwoods soaring stories high. Etrayans must document what remains of a world on its way out and then get out alive, surviving in the wilderness for two weeks while fighting off a hostile environment. Most importantly of all: beware the dark.

Tone: Dark and philosophical. Is this a world worth saving?

Objectives: Take samples and record for posterity what happened on Mesa. Demonstrate appreciation of what is lost and the capacity to preserve it.

WHEN: january 9th-11th
WHERE: she'll be at the white palace, in snake island
WHAT: sometimes, you try to get mcdonald's, and you get faced with a gigantic, spikey diamond mansion where you lived with your identical clone sisters and identical gene donor mother. sometimes, that makes you really, really sad.
NOTES\WARNINGS: sophie's stuff tends to consist of the following themes: mutant genocide, cloning, lack of identity and autonomy, enmeshment, toxic sibling relationship, sororicide, codependency, repression, groupthink, self-censorship and low self-esteem. anything related to the above might show up in this log.

@: un. cc, un. Superman2, un. GustaveEiffel, un. Stendhal.

hey, guys, i am not coming to nyx for the next three days, hold the fort out there, alright? chrissy, seriously girl, close at 2pm. don't stay there all day. i'll know if you do, do not test me. and everyone else, if there's an urgent demand, i don't know, think really fucking loud, alright? see you guys in a bit.

(Sophie will not be reachable via earpiece; all messages will bounce back. She can still be spoken to if someone thinks loudly enough while saying her name, like calling on a friend on a loud party, but whether she'll answer is up in the air.)

[Mayuko can be seen pacing outside of the Dhaliwal-to-Wall Bookstore in high spirits, as a quartet of chocobos observe the proceedings.]

You all, I cannot believe--I can't believe it! Hahhhh... okay, first of all! Happy New Year, if I haven't seen you in a few days. I occupied myself with a warm kotatsu and four days worth of auspicious-food-in-a-box, as one does. But then I ran out of reading material, which is why I started out here! BUT THEN!!!

[She gestures back at the large birds.]

These all started kicking up a fuss and wanting me to follow them and-- it's not the most impossible thing, I know, but we're going to head to the east of the bookstore, east of Mollymarlin's trolley stop and you're going to see something pretty great.

[She flips the camera away from her and begins walking towards some of the low hills that border the mountains of Mollymarlin. After some time, approaching the bordering river, she pipes up again.]

I guess this is going to be a heads-up, if you have been brought to other places before Etraya? Things from there can show up. For better or for worse.... OK, walking, we're walking and--

[She points to an opening in the hillside and goes up to it.]

CHIRPER
Welcome to our bi-monthly CHIRPER post!

There are a few ways to interact with CHIRPER:

Characters receive a notification to please fill out the form, which is fully optional. There is a character requirement of two characters per answer field. This is to discourage leaving the spaces blank.
When forms are not filled out, they can be filled out by the companion bots of Etraya, or by other characters on behalf of their friends! This includes the Q&A section.
Characters can either like or dislike others' CHIRPER profiles. These responses are public.
This is voluntary on an OOC basis; if the character doesn't have a profile completed by themselves or anyone else, nothing shows up for them on CHIRPER.
For those who do post a top level, profiles are worth 5 extra points regardless of if they are put up willingly by the character themselves. These 5 extra points do apply to the 25 maximum per month.

This month there is a special ✨ HOLIDAY SEASON ✨ addition: instead of ✓ or ✕ for like or dislike, it's 🎄 and 🔪. Whatever the character has the most votes for shows up appended to their username on the network for the next month, as in, un: aurora 🎄.

Please feel free to switch out any of the Q&A questions with those listed here!
