Detailed Description

spacer.png

The traveling extravaganza known as the Witchlight Carnival visits your world once every eight years. You have a dim memory of sneaking into the carnival as a child without paying for a ticket. That memory has grown foggy over time, though it still conjures a weird admixture of emotions—wonder and awe mixed with loss and regret. During this childhood visit, your character lost something. You tried to find it, but the carnival owners—a pair of elves named Mister Witch and Mister Light—were decidedly unhelpful.

"Silly little screeching cricket," said Witch. "You forgot to buy a ticket."

"The carnival goes round and round," said Light. "The multiverse is our playground. Nothing's free and nothing's lost. Every visit has its cost."

As time passed, your heart became less heavy, and you gave less and less thought to those childhood events. Now, for reasons you can't explain, the longing to retrieve that which you have lost has resurfaced, as though an old spell has faded away, allowing you to feel the loss as sharply as if it happened yesterday.

The Witchlight Carnival has returned, and you find yourself standing near a ticket booth by the entrance at twilight, just as the carnival is about to open. There you meet others who look as troubled as you. Without knowing how or why, you sense that each of them has lost something as well. Perhaps fate has brought you together.

 

  1. What's new in this game
  2. I will most likely have the next post up on Thursday. Again, I'm sorry for the wait. X_X
  3. I'll also be away July 22nd to August 6th, but should be okay accessing via WiFi on my mobile. Fingers crossed 🤞
  4. To let everyone know I'm going to be on vacation from August 19th to September 6th I'll be on a long vacation with limited access to internet it will be unlikely that I'll be able to post feel free to npc me if needed to move things along
  5. Still hovering...keeping an eye on it, but I know how hard RL can bite at times
  6. I figured as much, was really just pinging to make sure people were still around as it had been about two weeks.
  7. I think this is just a slower moving game - which is fine, PbP varies in pace and the whole advantage is that it can be slower paced than finding several hours each week - the important thing is that so far Haruki has always been super communicative about delays whenever asked, which gives me high hopes for the game lasting
  8. Yes, RL has picked up on my end quite a bit. I apologize for the wait. I'll move the game along ASAP.
  9. I think is just very busy IRL right now, but hopefully will come back someday. If you want to drop it is up to you. I wouldn't expect much any time soon.
  10. Understood. ^_^ I'll get Dirla's response up as soon as possible. And there is a bit more to the Lost Property section. Muahahaha...
  11. I think we need some input from the fey displacer / butterfly regarding what we've lost - or just moving on to the dragonflies?

Features - Official Inquiry You're experienced at gaining access to people and places to get the information you need. Through a combination of fast-talking, determination, and official-looking documentation, you can gain access to a place or an individual related to a crime you're investigating. Those who aren't involved in your investigation avoid impeding you or pass along your requests. Additionally, local law enforcement has firm opinions about you, viewing you as either a nuisance or one of their own. - Rogue 1 AC: 15 | HP: 8/8 | Init: +3 | PP: 17 Sneak Attack: 1d6 | DM Inspiration: 0 EEEEK! is delighted to find that the group are heading in the direction of the Dragonflies. It's the lifelong dream of every Kenku to fly and so the youngster can't help but smile. On the way, the group pass by the Calliope and EEEEK! begins to hum along, mimicking the music of the golden whistles. He frowns slightly, the tune somehow familiar...memories stirring of his previous visit and a lost...a lost...a lost...oh bother! It's on the tip of his tongue. He pulls out his purse, certain that he's seen a button in there, despite the lack of coins. "Ummm...here you go!" he comments distractedly, dropping a shiny button into the tin cup as he hums along with that blasted ear worm of a song.

Both bring a brief look of confusion to his face, quickly blown away by a smile for the former, and awe for the latter. He try to hum along with the chaotic tune of the calliope, but finds himself too distracted by the monkey and adorable goblin. The creature already has a wide smile that mirrors his own, though showing crooked teeth in place of his perfect white fence, at his companions gifts. Perhaps this did not count as a deal with the fey, he thinks as he watches Jasmin so eagerly part with her outfit. In fact, everyone seems to be, bar the strange hare-person. His thoughts tumble from his mouth - "This is not a foul deal then, Ms Hart?" He plucks one of the many ornate buttons from his waistcoat - and leaves it dangling above the cup in anticipation of her answer. "I hope not, else my tailor will be most displeased I have torn a button from my jacket for no reason. Though perhaps he will be pleased at the gold." The carnival continues to be a cornucopia of wonder as they come upon the lost and found, and Siegfried does little to hide his wonder at the catlike before them, his mouth agape. "Magnificent," he whispers to himself. He favours the children with a bright smile moments later, "and you as well of course!" He looks up again as Jasmine kindly translates the flowing sounds that everyone aside from him seems to speak - clearly a deficiency in his education. Very surprising, given his various tutors thoroughness. Or perhaps they had covered it and his own lack of attention was to blame. "Well thank-you Diralagraun," he replied with a low bow, "I am having a wonderful time. As for loss, I'm afraid I've lost a great many things over the years, most often myself. Though I would hazard my father is most annoyed about my ambitions. The brand new lacquered moneybag was a close second though, on account of its being full at the time. Then again, maybe he's made peace with my sister taking over instead - I certainly have, and she would like nothing more."

  14. Ilse watches the performance of the monkey impassively. She's rather the opposite of Jasmine, not expressing any amusement at the rhyme. An offer of nothing should receive nothing in return. That's how it's always been. She's confused when several of her companions start gifting buttons just because they were asked. She stares at the tin cup as the small goblin rattles it in her direction. After a moment's thought, Ilse decides she ought to follow Jasmine and Chit'Thall's lead. One of the buttons on her ratty coat is already frayed enough that she doesn't need to cut it off; she simply pulls it off and tosses it into the cup thread still dangling from it. On their way toward the lost property, Ilse instinctively walks at the back of the group. She likes to be able to see the people she's traveling with. When they get there, she looks at the feline creature with slight interest, having never seen anything like it before. When asked if she's enjoying herself (or rather, when Jasmine translates the question), Ilse responds quietly. "I can't complain."

Wiping tears of amusement off her face Jasmine doesn't hesitate to take a small knife to an embossed button with fancy scrolling on her sleeve and then put it into the cup. At the lost items and things she hesitates a moment before speaking in perfect sylvan "Indeed perhaps we can also help you were you searching for someone named Star?" she bows and then turns to the group. "This is Diralagraun or Dira she asked if we we were enjoying ourselves and if we have lost anything." She would would translate part of the conversation leaving the rest to be revealed in case it was private. statblock tiefling warlock 1 AC 14 HP 10 Speed 30ft passive perception 12 Str 12 (1) Dex 17 (3) Con 15 (2) Wis 14 (2) Int 12 (1) Cha 16 (3) Saves Bold - proficient str +1 Dex +3 Con +2 Wis +4 Int +1 Cha +5 Skills Bold-proficient Arcana +3 Athletics +1 Deception +5 History +3 Insight +2 Investigation +1 Medicine +2 Nature +1 Perception +2 Performance +3 Persuasion +5 Religion +1 Sleight of hand +3 Stealth +3 Survival +2 Attacks eldritch blast 1d20+5 1d10 120 ft toll the dead wis 13 1d8/1d12 60 ft armor of agathys 5 cold damage and temp hp self witch bolt 1d20+5 1d12 30 ft Faerie Fire DC 13 Dex save advantage Sleep 5d8 hp starting with the lowest quarterstaff 1d20+3 1d6+1 0ne handed 1d8+1 two handed dagger 1d20+5 1d4+3 range 20/60ft light crossbow 1d20+5 1d8+3 two handed range 80/320 fey presence wisdom save DC 13 10 ft cube frightened or charmed ASI Tiefling per Tasha's +1 charisma +2 Dexterity Darkvision, You can see in darkness (shades of gray) up to 60 ft.

Pouch Travelers clothes Explorer's pack Gavin seems easily amused by his companions and what they are saying. His ears perked up when he heard his native tongue spoken. He could not help but respond in kind. "It is music to my ears to hear the language of my childhood spoken. It would be wonderful to find that which we have lost, even if we are not certain what that lost thing actually is." a look of loss crosses his face as he unconsciously adjust the straps carrying his Mandolin on his back.

  17. They were. 0_0 I included you in the private text and made sure I typed your username in correctly. You don’t see it? EDIT: I just put you username in between two others. Maybe the different order of usernames will help. Can you see the private text?
  18. So were they speaking in Sylvan? As Gavin would understand it as that is his native tongue.

His new friends may not realize this, but it is very unusual for him. He is usually very down to business. "Earnest Marigold. Click click, you two are just marvelous. Let me give you a button." He chuckles as he cuts a button off of his apron and drops it into the goblin's cup. Lost Property: "Click click, Dirlagraun, it is good to see you taking care of the lost children. It is a beautiful night. I hate to bother you in your time of loss, but my friends and I have lost some things. I wonder if they might be in the lost and found."

  20. Ah right gotcha. Yes does clear it up and make sense. Do we remember exactly what we have lost as well, or is that at our discretion?
