+ THE BREWING STORM, PART 2 +
...You didn't really think it was going to be that easy, did you?
If you'rea stalker one of those people who likes tracking developments through character posts in the network, you might have caught wind of the plan to coerce a happy event out of the Mansion by force-feeding pleasant memories down its throat-- hence, the appearance of Twilight Town for the first half of the week.
But oh, the Mansion won't like that.
During June 5th to June 8th,
entranceway is going to try something different: a memory swapping event. What exactly will that involve?
Well, it means that during that time, your character is going to get to experience someone else's memory as if it were their own; in fact, more than that, they'll be convinced it was their own, even if everything they know contradicts it. Let's have a simple example:
Character A has a memory of Character B killing his sister.
Because of the event, Character C ends up having Character A's memory.
Now Character C is convinced that Character B has killed his sister, and has a memory of it... even if he doesn't actually have a sister, and even if he's never met Character B. See where it gets complicated?
On top of this, for the duration of the event, Character A will have no recollection of Character B killing his sister!
Naturally, characters can have doubts about their newfound life-changing experiences, and some memories will just be too strange to add up with what they already know, but at least for the moment they wake up, they'll be completely convinced it's their own memory. It can feel like something they've forgotten, and then suddenly remembered, or they might not change anything at all about their behavior, at least not to start with. Of course, the effect isn't going to be immediately obvious in a lot of cases; it's a bit more subtle than, say, a body swap event.
After the event, characters will have their memories returned to them. So don't worry, you won't end up with gaping holes in your mind.
If you'd like to participate, please fill up and post the following form. If you have multiple characters, please post each comment separately. This is because the choice of who gets what memory will be assigned by the moderators, in the usual random fashion, and you have until 3 PM, June 4 (EST) to sign up. :1 ♥
To make thing one thing absolutely clear: this event is not mandatory, and if you'd rather not have your character affected, it's fine!
EDIT: This post is now . The list will be up shortly!
