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.

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

Mission 14 Wrap-Up

Major Events on Mission 14

• Most characters completed their assigned tasks. For the first time, those who did not have had IC points deducted. (The activity page has been updated to describe the difference between IC and OOC points.)
• Mirror versions escaped the Hall of Mirrors for the Test Drive Meme. Those encounters can be remembered IC even if the characters weren't apped.
• Fan favorite amusements included the Tunnel of Love, the Ferris Wheel, and Bruce Wayne at the dunk tank.

Mission Forecast

• May - Heavy, serious, and meta-plot related. Horror, dystopian; off-world; multiple plot leads to follow. Characters can limit exposure to intense themes but can't avoid entirely without a mission pass (AC reward).
• July - A glimmer of hope. Fantasy, exploration; off-world; assigned teams.

Mission NPC applications are NOW OPEN for May.

Until Next Time
Players are always welcome (and strongly encouraged!) to develop Etraya in between missions. Want more societal structure? Think your character needs a job? Go for it! Use this post to comment below with what your plans are for the time between missions, and see if others are interested.

Historically, we've also had several players come to us between missions with plots they want to dig into via our plotting post! We always want to encourage our playerbase to come to us if they want something meatier to dig into, and we'll do our best to build something suitable to what you're looking for!

We encourage everyone to make use of the mission ideas post as well.

Highlight → Sophie's player plot is still underway, as are QQ's related network posts!


Genre Poll
What are you interested in seeing next? This is essentially a vibe check -- if the player base is swinging in a different direction than what we planned, we're open to changing those plans!
