EVENT: Fight to Save Costa Rica

Hey, Soul Campaigners!

A while ago, the people of San Jose, Costa Rica were finally able to return home after the evacuation.

On three month anniversary, a monument to remember the lives lost was unveiled. Two days later, the government received a threat.

Or rather, a politely worded letter declaring an intent to invade the city, signed by our friend the witch, Hachi.

Due to the fact that it involves a witch, the government of Costa Rica approaches Shibusen once again.

However, there is one key difference from last time: the people have had enough of running.

Children and other non-combatants will be evacuated, but many of the locals have chosen to volunteer to fight. They've just returned home, for better or for worse, they're not leaving.

Unfortunately, that may cause more problems than not...


April's event as mentioned before will happen from September 1st to September 2nd ICly (April 15th - 21st OOCly)


On September 1:

Characters will arrive in San Jose on September 1st and help prepare the city for the invasion, setting up barricades and helping prep any civilian volunteers for battle as best they can.

There will also be a strange NPC appearing on this day that your characters can interact with...who are they? Well...they appear harmless and human, at least.


On September 2:

The attack begins in earnest and it's, as you guessed, Clowns. By now your character probably has a pretty good idea about their weaknesses and strengths, having fought them so many times, right? Unfortunately, if they rely too much on their assumptions they may find themselves in hot water. The Clowns attacking the city may look the same but they are stronger and their abilities more refined then ever before.

Here's what this means...


Purple Clowns : have the ability to seemingly sap people's energies get too close and it can very quickly bring the average person to their knees in seconds. Engaging in close combat with these Clowns will be incredibly dangerous and difficult. Their regenerative abilities have also been amped up allowing them to be able to reattach a severed limb almost instantaneously. It will take a lot of hard hitting to take these Clowns down now.

Mustard Yellow Clowns : have one eye that is red and one that us blue (though why anyone would want to be close enough to see this is) these ones have psychic powers including creating psychic energy blasts and manipulating materials. They are also significantly stronger than before, increasing the range and strength of their attacks.

Silver Clowns : Are still shapeshifters, but can now copy people perfectly, even down to speaking (though they can only parrot what they've heard their targets saying) which means that Silver Clowns can and will approach fighters posing as civilian volunteers or even your fellow Guests. They are still weak to electricity, however.

Red Clowns : These fast Clowns have elongated pieces extending from the top of its head as if...it had hair? It is capable of instantly stealing/plundering the heat/energy of any target it can see. This typically results in the target getting lit on fire as it takes the heat away from her target that the surrounding air is too hot, hence producing flame. However, their near-sightedness is now gone so now the only way to really avoid their ability is hiding behind something or staying out of its field of vision altogether...which will be no easy task as these Clowns are incredibly fast.

In addition to the Clowns the local police and civilian volunteers will also be fighting. They don't really stand much of a chance but Shibusen has asked that you try to help keep civilian casualties to a minimum. And then there's the mysterious figure you might have seen around town hanging about still...this time on the side of the Clowns and this person's got a few cards up their sleeves...

Well, Naoto will be heading in. Same as usual and with the normal partner. If they're needed for any reason, they'll be doing clean up.

Amaterasu will be heading in with Psii. Though, if another Weapon is in need of aid, she can double wield.

Rosalia doesn't currently have a partner, but she's medic as usual and putting on a brave face to go. She would like a partner to help defend the lines and protect the escaping citizens. Her ability is Soul Contagion, infecting Kishin eggs and not harming people this time around.

Kyubey doesn't have a permanent partner, but he'll be going to observe the battle and eat any souls collected. Who wants the little cat-thing? Who wants to be ~*~magical~*~?

A couple of my characters are available for this if people are looking for partners!

Morgan is a Meister and her ability is Soul Excitement which means resonance is better when she’s excited.

Count D is a Weapon and turns into an incense burner that lets Meisters create animals to attack enemies.

Lily is paired with Lezard as usual.

And all three should be available if anyone wants to talk during preparations. Also if anyone wants to fight a silver clown that copied one of my characters, I'm fine with that too!

Chika totally wouldn't mind partnering up with Kyubey again for this, if you're wiling to have her team up with him.

Sure! First come first serve!
scatterflower: (hey)

[personal profile] scatterflower 2014-04-14 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
Great. I'll go take care of the sign up then.
pishirogane: (Good day...)

[personal profile] pishirogane 2014-04-14 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
Alright. Thanks.
scatterflower: (hey)

[personal profile] scatterflower 2014-04-14 05:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't mention it! I already took care of it, so we're all set to go whenever the log goes up.

I know it's sorta late, but Rose doesn't have a partner. I don't know D's feelings about front line combat, but she'll be guarding evacuees and stuff... if he wants to partner.

[personal profile] vintage_magic 2014-04-16 05:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure, I'm up for it! While D isn't crazy about fighting, he doesn't mind punishing those who he thinks deserve it. Also, he's curious if it's possible to summon other animals. He's mostly talked to Weapons so far and hasn't found other Meisters to experiment with yet. Still meant to have him talk to Rosalia in the training log too but have been a bit behind in tagging new things with trying to get posts written.

I'm going to be slow for a while after next Wednesday though. Going to Canada for a week and will have limited internet access again while I'm out of town.

Don't worry! Rose will try to make cats this time! And take your time on the log. We have all the backlogging time ever.

Oh, Canada! Have fun!

If it's not too late: If Amaterasu asks Ghoulia, she'll come along, otherwise she'll hang back.
motherofthesun: (Give a Goddess some love~)

[personal profile] motherofthesun 2014-04-16 06:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Hehe, alright~ I'll add Ghoulia in with them.

[personal profile] brainius 2014-04-16 06:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Fantastic. :D

First time chainsaw/goggles combo gooo!

[personal profile] brainius 2014-04-16 06:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Go goooo! Pchoooo and then everything was on fire and/or in half.
motherofthesun: (Cool story bro)

[personal profile] motherofthesun 2014-04-16 07:21 pm (UTC)(link)
No idea how all of that happened. Tee hee...
holdmydumbbell: (And shine!)

[personal profile] holdmydumbbell 2014-04-17 01:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Super late, but it there are any Weapons in want of a Meister, I can offer up Mondo to go clown hunting!

Okay! I've only got a few tags left so I'll have to tag that a bit later. And how did you want to handle the event thread? I was talking to Ami the other day and I think Lily and Lezard are also helping protect the injured so they might be nearby.

And thanks! Finally got a laptop the other day so getting in a few replies should be easier this time around if I can get an internet connection.

Oh, and did you want Kyubey and Morgan to continue with doing regular missions after the event? They can still handwave one more so I was thinking that might be good for while I'm away.

[personal profile] bloodinbloom 2014-04-19 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmm... Well, it would be a little strange with a four-way given you play two of the characters. Still, player-cest given the situation wouldn't be a bad thing... Of course, it could always just be Rosalia and Lily handling it in the thread itself with a small group of tiny animals and fire everywhere... There can always be the Closed threads between each group before running into each other after all.

Oh nice!

Yes, please. I feel like Kyubey's probably giving her like 90% of his cash anyway so it would be beneficial for her. Should we head to Venezuela this time?
vintage_magic: (wardrobe 1 | Hmm... | Thinking)

[personal profile] vintage_magic 2014-04-20 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I kind of feel like four player threads aren't too practical anymore with how slow the game has gotten. Which is kind of a shame since they could possibly be used for interesting stuff like group resonance. Not really sure if there's a general rule for whether it's okay for one person to play two characters in a four-way thread though. I think Ami and I were assuming a closed thread like usual when we talked the other day but if they're in the same general area, maybe they could notice some things about the other even if they don't interact directly and it could lead to questions later? Like Lily being able to throw huge fireballs or create a couple of very large snakes. Or Lily wondering where all these little animals are coming from.

Ooh, Morgan certainly wouldn't mind taking him on more missions if she's getting most of his share of the money too! And sure, we can do that one. Did you want to do the sign up since you wrote the last summary?
bloodinbloom: (Big brother!; Big Sis!)

[personal profile] bloodinbloom 2014-04-20 04:58 am (UTC)(link)
Ugh, group resonance would've been so awesome. But yes, peculiar things happening should happen. Hehe~

Sure! I'll post to the mission board in a bit. Do we want it for the third or later?
vintage_magic: (tarnished 2 | Something's strange here..)

[personal profile] vintage_magic 2014-04-20 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, talked to Ami and I think we're going with them not interacting directly but possibly getting glimpses of each other in the area. Hmm... or maybe the silver clowns could also copy them to cause confusion.

I'm fine with whenever! I don't have any particular plans for Morgan after the event so her schedule is clear.

[personal profile] bloodinbloom 2014-04-20 05:42 am (UTC)(link)
Okay, that works. Haha, oh silver clowns. They shall be defeated!

Alright. I'll post it for the day after the mission since she's impatient anyway.
vintage_magic: (wardrobe 1 | Hmm... | Thinking)

[personal profile] vintage_magic 2014-04-20 06:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay, works for me! Did you want to start the event thread or should I do it?

Oh, I can do it. Once this movie is over.
