Atlantis Weeks 17-20

[artificial_intelligence]

You Can't Hide What's Inside You

While Atlantis is pulling itself back together after the plague of fire of the previous month, the citizens of Atlantis have pulled together to help one another out. Finding new homes, repairing shops and generally pulling together to put the city back in one piece.

An unusual Aurora Borealis appears in the sky Sunday morning and throughout the week people will be waking to new companions in their beds. Souls are manifesting themselves outside of people's bodies in the form of Daemons.

Daemons come in animal forms of all kinds. Mammals, reptiles, even insects. Children's Daemons can change forms into whatever animal reflects their mood, inner feelings, or intent at the time. Adult's Daemons are 'settled' into a form that reflects who the person is inside. (The inner-self of a human is physically manifested in the form of an animal called a dæmon). People who listen to orders and are followers tend to have canine daemons, a shy or reserved person might have a mouse or a butterfly, an adventurous and bold person might have a big cat, like a lion.

When your character wakes up, their Daemon will know everything there is to know about  them. They are as much a part of them as their own head. You two are connected. A person's dæmon is usually of the opposite sex to its human; however, in some cases it may be the same sex as the person. Any pain you feel, your Daemon feels and any harm that comes to your Daemon you will feel. If you die, your Daemon dies with you. Neither can bear to be distanced by more than several yards (it causes physical pain). It is extremely improper to touch another person's Daemon and will cause the other person discomfort. (Daemon, however, frequently interact with one another).

interactions between dæmons usually accentuate and illuminate the relationships between the characters, and have also been used as a means of passing information between humans without being overheard.

When a person dies, their dæmon fades away, like "atoms of smoke."

Daemons persist throughout week 16 and will continue to hang around any characters who have gained one for the next few weeks until the end of week 20, when they will disappear once more as if they had never been there at all.

It should be noted there IS a possibility your character might keep their Daemons. It requires participation in a plot. There is a sign up in the post below and another post will go up before the plot happens. (It'll be pretty simple, really. It's more to make keeping track easier.)

This is a reminder that Daemons are not pets. They are the manifestation of your character's soul and they both can and will talk and have their own personality quirks and opinions (some even act as a sort of conscience for their counterparts at times.) Please keep this in mind when you are putting them into play. 

Events of note of the past four weeks:
NPCs
Air Marshal Nicholaswitt  vanished for most of the first week of the dragon's attack and was not at all himself when he returned, volunteering for a suicide mission to attempt to catch the dragon and putting the lives of his men and himself at risk. After being detained by his Second in command, Jack ( thepartyprince ) Witt has been under the watchful eye of Native Atlantean, Owen (pateras )

Thanks to the sharp-shooting ofbowsbeforehoes  the dragonfireandash  problem was finally nullified (with the help of the remaining avengers). After its death, the body of the dragon remained on Ouranos summit for three days until a mysterious building appeared in its place.

Atlantis
There has been an influx of Greek Gods that can only spell potential trouble for Atlantis' future
Charles Xavier is opening a new school (details to come) that your characters are invited to attend.
Atlantis has picked up an extensive amount of new buildings to replace the burnt out shell of Ouranos District.
Everyone who was killed in the Fury of Mt. Olympus came back to life (yay)

OOC Plotting

Loki and Lindsey

[hellsbestlawyer]

Since I'm still on hiatus until the end of May, I'm going to say Loki remains his reclusive self between mountains and reading.

For Lindsey, autoing rights go to Darla since he'd be following her around like a lovesick puppy again anyway. Also, I think he has a linx for a daemon. :|a

I can plot things out here but things will have to be handwaved as I won't be doing much rping. Hopefully in June I'll be able to catch up to all this CR I missed.

I'm technically slowatus for the next week or two until all my finals are over, but I should be able to reasonably jump back in come Thursday! Or, yanno. At least make one post.

Alisha will still be running Plaid, and will not be very happy to hear TJ overdosed. First Dean kidnaps an employee, now the other one's dead... it's just so hard to find trust-worthy help these days. At any rate, she's been preoccupied with spiting Erik, so I hope to continue that as well. In general, she'll be around, reacting to whatever CR comes her way. I'm guessing her daemon will be a rabbit, because. Well. We all know how rabbits like to breed.

PS: As a note and reminder, she does serve people 16 and over. Teenagers, you have access to booze; make the most of it. :3

Merida will definitely be going on adventures! I think a post for her will be one of the first ones I attend to; so if anyone wants to go exploring with her, they're more than welcome to join! Her daemon will be an eagle because I'm unoriginal, and she's as proud as its skein.

Milo will continue to research and stuff, probably do a bit of exploring himself to see if he can't find text on ruins and translate those. His daemon will take the shape of a FIREfly. Yanno, the kind that burned down the camp. Looks harmless enough, but when riled, becomes a force to be reckoned with... just like a certain linguist we know.

Baby Doll is searching for a job, one preferably not too different from what she did in Lennox (sans the whole "sleeping with customers" aspect). If there's any sort of place like that already tucked away in Atlantis, that'd be superspecialawesome; if not, she'll make due elsewhere. I'm not sure whether it's allowable at all, it'd also be cool if her daemon could take the form of this thing. If not, the Monty Python rabbit Serval cat will suffice (cute and deadly, aspects that are surprising in a domesticated cat, out of place, pick your metaphoric poison). Though the robot is still cool and far more fitting given her ridiculously vivid imagination.

Carrie will be doing her best to both explore the city whilst blend into the crowd at the same time. She is also in dire need of a rat cage, so I imagine she'll be asking about that isn't she just so exciting. Her daemon will be a chameleon (again, blending into the background, being a mostly solitary creature, constantly keeping an eye out, careful in movement, etc.).

Oh my God. Perfect timing to join. Daemons!!! I am so excited. Also hi guys. +1 Spider-man

I was full of fail last month what with being busy with various things, but I'm just going to toss up a list here rather than my usual wall of text and go for kind of a clean slate. I did wind up trimming my roster a fair amount, but any of these characters are up for grabs for anyone who wants them. Also, if you want to plot with me more directly, the best place to do it (for those who don't know) is probably on plurk at hufflepuffed, or at circusofthedamned on AIM or anobsidianbutterfly on Skype!

[worldabouttodawn]

I really have no plots outside of a few:

Enjolras (Les Mis) finding an abandoned building to start up a new revolution HQ with the other Amis, and idk maybe teaching at the school if that can still be a thing?

Remmy (Original Character) I have nothing except probably going to Plaid and wandering around like an idiot.

I donno. Anyone want to plot with these guys?

Re: OOC Plotting

[hypercompetent]

Boink.

Stiles Stilinski { hypercompetent }
-> daemon; Asha { abelief } | maned wolf

Marius Pontmercy { aheartfull }
-->daemon; Polie | brittany

Bran Stark { climbed }
-->daemon; Jojen | crow

Kate Argent { accelerant }
-->daemon; Herostratus | puma


Daenerys Targaryen { motherof }
-->daemon; Viserion | dragon


I think those are all the ones I'm going to be throwing into this! 8D If anyone wants anyone else just let me know. As for plot things, Stiles just got his mom back (!!!!!!), Bran has his siblings back (!!!) and Marius is going to go along with the Amis and pine after Cosette, but what else is new. Kate's slinking around as always, and Dany got involved with the ship plot but hasn't done a lot since owo.

Hanna

[ghani]

Hello everyone, Hanna here just laying out what I have to offer

ghani - Ghanima Atreides, Atlantis is about to get a space princess. She will be part of the daemon plot, her daemon is a muad'dib with a voice that sounds like her twin brother Leto. It won't be sticking around after the event.

appletosser - Eris, I really want her to get opportunities to mess with people so if you want any sort of trouble for your character let me know!

pothos - Pothos here will be getting in trouble relatively soon which will upset Dionysos rather a lot.

The rest I have no plans for but will happily make some

unwed_maid - Lyssa (goddess)
jestandjollity - Euphrosyne (goddess)
triodia - Hekate (goddess)
sawthefirst - Quinn Abercromby, won't get a daemon
heartless_huntsman - Graham Humbert, no daemon, he already has Wolf
