Intro Log Volunteers!
It's nearly app cycle, so here's to prepare for the new intro log coming up!
Intro Logs: We need volunteers!
Every application cycle, we put up an introduction log for the new characters coming into the game. In these logs, members of Shibusen take the new guests around Shibusen and the city, bring them to the Casualty Communal, and inform them of being meister or weapon. This log is important to get the new characters more easily situated in the setting of Soul Campaign.
The threads, specifically, are titled:
- Kishin Chamber: Where they first appear. This used to be the chamber were Kishin Asura was kept, but is now unused except when the BREW decides to pull people in.
- Around Shibusen: A short tour of the school premises and facilities.
- Outside Shibusen: A view of the city and the desert beyond it.
- Around Death City: A glimpse of Death City as they go from Shibusen to Casualty Communal (through the commercial district).
- Casualty Communal: Where they are told about their new residencies, how to upgrade to other places to live, and to give them an opportunity to find out what they are via Soul Perception.
- Soul Perception: Various people with Soul Perception and Shibusen’s equipment help tell the new characters whether they are meister or weapon. The equipment takes the form of an X-ray that can show what a person’s soul looks like. It functions as a substitute for basic Soul Perception.
We need volunteers from the current characters to handle the December application cycle, due to the large number of applicants coming in.
How will it work? The NPCs will start all the main threads in the logs as usual. When characters reply to the section you are assigned to, you can choose to tag these players and therefore have that thread.
There are specific requirements that we need from the characters and players going to be volunteers. The mods and NPCs will of course be helping you if there are some things that you are uncertain about during the threads.
1. They have to necessarily be supportive of Shibusen or at least believes in promoting the well-being of the guests. Shibusen will ICly be approaching these characters to ask them if they can help, and Shibusen won’t do that if the character is known to actively move against them or is known for making trouble for others in Death City. We can always come up with some IC reasons to be a volunteer if your character doesn't have a particularly good rep with Shibusen -- just let us know.
2. The characters need to be adequately informative and helpful. The new characters will be asking questions, so the volunteers need to be able to answer a good amount of them with accurate information.
3. The characters need to have a good know-how of how things work in Death City. Things like where to find the clinic, who to contact in case of emergencies, knowing about the Watch, trainings, shopping, and recent (and previous) attacks to the city -- these are some of the things that the characters might have to update their new buddies about.
4. Will be free from December 17 to 23ish, or can at least devote some tagging time for the log. We won’t be asking you to handle ten threads each or something, and we don’t need you to tag at the speed of light, but we would like all threads to be finished in a timely manner. We also need to make sure that all the characters have someone tagging them. It wouldn’t be nice if anyone was left out!
This set of volunteers will only be for this cycle -- should we need it again next cycle, we will coordinate it beforehand. The deadline for volunteering is December 15, which gives the mods and NPCs some time to revise the intro log threads to accommodate the volunteers.
To volunteer, please comment in this post with the following information:
The more, the better! Thank you in advance, we truly appreciate it.
Note: We will be adding another subthread of sorts, which will be in the Communal and will be open to all characters, volunteers or not. This way, people don't need to volunteer just to be able to welcome their preferred castmates into the game. However, please do volunteer if you can!

As a note, I won't be getting my work schedule for that week until the 14th, BUT as I only work weekends, and not even full weekends, I'll be free the majority of the time. My shifts are sort of short, so I won't be gone all day either. So just a heads up saying that won't interfere too much!

Character: L Lawliet
Thread preferred: Kishin Chamber, because I think that L will be interested in scoping out the new arrivals to see if he recognizes anyone. :D He's not very social, though, and he's probably not going to be very friendly to anyone who isn't the sole person he's actually hoping arrives. So... for tetchy and impatient encounters that are grudgingly helpful at best, I CAN offer L. If the mods have any better ideas for where to stick him, I am also more than open to that. ^_^

Not sure if Ritsuka qualifies since I've been on hiatus for so long, but I would still like to help it possible :) If he doesn't qualify for this, then I'll definitely help tag the Communal threads instead!
