February 2026 Dream Event Plotting meme


• DREAM EVENT PLOTTING MEME •
Welcome to our February Dream Event Plotting meme! This post is our monthly CR meme for everyone, and serves as a place to make some plans for our next event, which will go live on February 11th. Below you will see the Event planning form as well as an Event Outline for our upcoming event.
• Event Outline •
Prompt Summary Mementos: The Collective Unconscious
  • Dreamers begin noticing distortions in reality.
  • They may end up stuck in loops or find themselves transported to locations other than what they intend.
  • When passing through doors, they may see a brief flicker of home.
  • They may also end up in Mementos, a dark mirror of the Labyrinth, where dangerous shadows lurk.
  • Mementos is the world of the Dreamers' collective unconscious, formed by their wishes and their fears, and it is now bleeding into reality.
  • These shadows have infested Visium and Lumindeas as well.
  • The worst shadow is The Reaper, which will take great power to defeat and will follow dreamers who try to run from it.
Forge Your Soul's Contract
  • Dreamers find a mask affixed to their face, a deep will of rebellion against the things that have held them back in life provoking them to pull it off.
  • The process is painful, but it will awaken their Persona.
  • The Personas may look similar to the Shadows, but they are protectors born from the will of their Dreamer's rebellion.
  • They often take the form of mythical or otherwise significant figures, but you have freedom to make your character's Persona something else. It can be a mythological, religious or fictional figure from your character's canon, or a figure from any real world mythology or pantheon (think Greek or Egyptian gods, or even the creatures from Lovecraft's mythos) that you believe fits your character's motif. You have total creative freedom here!
  • They have elemental powers and can inflict status ailments like Shadows do.
  • Dreamers feel inspired and spurred to action.
  • These personas can be used to fight off The Reaper, which will be done in pairs of two. You can sign up here to battle The Reaper in pairs, and RNG will decide who delivers the killing blow. Characters are aware that there is a prize on the line for the winning pair, though they don't know what it is... Sign-ups close on 2/21.
Thy Bond Shall Become The Wings Of Rebellion
  • The shadows grow stronger throughout the month.
  • Dreamers must strengthen their social bonds to survive.
  • Dreamers feel compelled to connect with others, both new and old, and make deals based on mutual benefit.
  • Making good on these deals will give strength, speed, attack, defense, and other buffs, in and outside of Mementos.
  • A social rank, 1-10, will appear above each Dreamer's head as they interact. These ranks reflect how close CR feel to one another, and they may not necessarily match. For example, Jack loves Sally, so when he talks to her, a 10 appears above his head. However, Sally's feelings have been cooling toward Jack recently, so a 5 appears above her head - how awkward, that Jack can see that...
  • Increasing these social ranks will also provide buffs and unlock special skills.
  • Two characters who increase their social rank may unlock a special "showtime" attack specific to the nature of their bond that deals massive damage. Feel free to get creative with how these look, what they're called, etc. - you can see examples from canon here for an idea of just how much they can briefly bend reality in the name of a cool team up!
Distorted Desires
  • Approaching the crystals in Somnius and Stellari produces a curious effect.
  • Those nearing the Somnius crystal may be unable to distinguish between reality as it stands and the reality of their fears, regrets, and darkest obsessions.
  • Those nearing the Stellari crystal may experience an illusion of their grand wish as if it is really happening, and will be unable to distinguish between reality and their idealized life.
  • Only moving away from the crystal will shatter the illusion, though Dreamers feel compelled to stay.
  • Dreamers who have a high social rank with the affected Dreamer may be able to reason with them and trigger a "change of heart" and put a stop to the corruption, but the Dreamer in question is likely to become aggressive and attack.
  • Because the world is being controlled by Dreamers' collective cognitions, more tangible desires may appear at random - objects, pets, even places, etc. - but they will disappear after a short time.
Welcome to our First Dream Event plotting for the year of 2026! This event replaces our "Intense" event option. As always, please direct any questions to the appropriate header. We also have a RNG signup for a portion of the event below. Please make sure to read the summaries and instructions.

do persona characters go through a second awakening, or are they exempt from that part of the event?

also more specifically for a p3 like shinji, is it correct to assume he will no longer require an evoker for the duration of the event?
labyrinhelp: (Default)

[personal profile] labyrinhelp 2026-02-09 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
For the Persona players, we leave that up to your discretion! Do what is most fun and creatively engaging for you, whether that's a second awakening or sticking with their original Persona. The same goes for the Evoker - if it's more interesting to play with him not having to use that, feel free.

Reaper Fight Results Signups

[personal profile] labyrinmods 2026-02-09 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
Characters who fight the Reaper must fight in pairs; attempting to go solo will result in swift defeat. All efforts that pairs make against the Reaper will slowly but steadily weaken its power so that it may eventually be defeated.

Throughout the month, it's whispered all throughout both Somnius and Stellari that the pair of Dreamers who manage to defeat this incredibly powerful enemy will receive a big prize, though no one knows exactly what that prize will be.

To be eligible for the prize (and bragging rights!) for landing the killing blow on the Reaper, please submit the below form. To keep things fair, once a pair of characters faces the Reaper, neither can face him again in another pair, so choose your partner carefully!

Remember, sign ups CLOSE on February 21st, 2026

[personal profile] blue_ice 2026-02-09 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name and Pronouns: Zoki (she/her)
Contact: Discord kharamagica, plurk [plurk.com profile] kharamagic, or PM
Timezone: GMT -5 (EST)

Character Name: Seto Kaiba
Canon: Yu-Gi-Oh Duel Monsters
Character Age: 19 (he's aged a bit in-game)
General Info: Former gaming tech CEO who was just a little too obsessive over card games. Events in this realm in the past have forced him to start to open up, and he's a little better at survival in a dangerous world than he was. He's always struggled to let people in and has let himself survive in obscurity...this is the perfect opportunity to force him to deal with that :3

Permissions Post: Here!

Event Plans: He's definitely going to be forced past his fears of forging and deepening bonds to awaken a Persona. I considered going for Seth, the Egyptian mythology figure that he's partially a reincarnation of...but that's already a canon Persona, whoops. So instead he's turning into the Blue Eyes White Dragon, his waifu and clearly the best mythical figure ever (see pic below) :3

He mostly lives in Somnius and will be in proximity to the illusions of fear...he may need a little help getting out of that. But his main focus will be trying to build on alliances to keep everyone safe

Anything else: Isn't she majestic?

basil | omori

[personal profile] photographists 2026-02-09 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Basil
Canon: Omori
Character Age: He's going to be 18 this month.... unbelievable
General Info: Your local flowerboy.

Basil is an anxious person who loves flowers and once loved taking pictures. Due to his traumatic past, he has difficulty opening up to others and tends to withdraw more than the normal person typically would. However, he's the type of friend who would do absolutely anything for the people he loves, even if it's not what's best for either himself or the other person.
Permissions Post: Here & opt out.

Event Plans:
🌸 momentos: So, I think it'd be fun for Basil to pop into places unexpected, or we could go a darker route and have him see glimpses of home with someone else. That would potentially lead to a rather heavy discussion, depending on where characters end up seeing. I may end up writing a prompt for either one.
🌸 contracts: I'm mostly thinking of what arcana would fit my characters the most, and I see the Moon Arcana fitting Basil... So I might go with Pairika for him. The thing is that he has really close CR with a Devil Survivor character AND some Persona characters, so he's familiar with the concept of what personas and demons are for some characters here!
🌸 thy bond: Basil doesn't have much to offer, but he CAN provide things like food and assistance with helping others settle in. His strength is in his thriving business and greenhouse! He also has a pretty big social network too, if that ends up being in someone elses's interest.
🌸 distorted desires: Basil's ideal world is one where he can be with all of his friends together, reliving a bit of the older days. If anything, it would be a pretty vast garden with the illusions of his friends from home there with him.

Non Event Plans: I have no plans as of now!

pure vanilla | cookie run kingdom

[personal profile] ancientlight 2026-02-09 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Pure Vanilla
Canon: Cookie Run Kingdom
Character Age: 100+. There's a reason why I call him peepaw.
General Info: As his name indicates, Pure Vanilla is... very loving, he's also wise and benevolent and really cares greatly for those around him. Even with those who have wronged him in the past, he really just wants the best for them. After a pretty awful tragedy in canon, he's held some self doubt and inferiority complex. He's also a holder of what the canon's power of truth.

Growing up, he was a shepherd in his youth and then attended one of the magic schools... And then after adventuring with his friends, he was one of the leaders of one of the older kingdoms in his canon.
Permissions Post: Here.


Event Plans: 🔆 momentos: Oh man... I'd LOVE for characters to have a chance to take a glimpse into Vanilla Kingdom. Or better yet, like Basil, start new CR by having him pop into new places without really intending to.
🔆 contracts: The star arcana fits PV VERY well, so I'll be going with iris! Something offensive but with healing abilities also feels best in this situation.
🔆thy bond: I would LOVE for this to be a good opportunity for PV to get some nice CR! He's a very skilled healer and someone who has become fairly knowledgeable about what he can here in a short period of time.
🔆 distorted desires: PV... is not the kind of person who would have desires distorted. He's just not that kind of character?? But I'm absolutely game for him to help others break free of their own illusions.

Non Event Plans: People might see this lil guy running around. It's a dog... made of cake?? A cakehound.
Anything else:

The most pure hearted guy in existence.

Player Name and Pronouns: Liz (she/her)
Contact: [plurk.com profile] Lizadow, Discord: cafeleafeon! Feel free to add!
Timezone: EST

Character Name: Aurora
Canon: Beautiful Darkness
Character Age: 14
General Info: An unassuming young girl with a resourceful mind and curious spirit. After a horrific event that left her the only survivor of her people, she holds a lot of trauma and still a bit of cynicism and distrust. But lately she’s finding her kindness and some of her optimism again.

Event Plans:

1) Aurora will definitely be making a contract. She has a lot of fears and insecurities that still linger from her past. But there is a fighting spirit in her that is longing to leave survival mode and declare that she wants to genuinely fight if she must to protect her loved ones. While those feelings have flickered her and there on her stay, they haven’t solidified for her due to a fear that people would just end up dying.

Her Persona would be Mononoke, which is greatly inspired by San from “Princess Mononoke” who was a warrior and survivor who believed in protecting with her strength.

2) Bonds are a great thing! She’s already trying to strengthen what she has now and is open to trying to make more connections. Which is always good for her because her past literally made her into a willing hermit before coming here.

3) Distorted Desires…definitely might bring in her past with Zellie, who inspired Aurora to kill and survive in her own terms. Her anger and trauma will surface at that point because she truly planned and desired to get back at her and her supporters. At this point, close CR might have to intervene because she’ll think being a hermit is what’s good for her after all maybe…

Other than that, I’m debating on her joining the Reaper fight and I’m open to anything else!

Non Event Plans: RESTAURAAAAAAAAANT. As of this posting, she officially owns Lumturo! Under new management, she is planning a March reopening! She’ll post about job listings and stuff there and might get in touch with people who expressed interest in helping her already huhu.

haru okumura | persona 5 strikers

[personal profile] girlybruiser 2026-02-09 02:50 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Haru Okumura
Canon: Persona 5 Strikers
Character Age: 19
General Info:

    Haru is a Persona user/member of the Phantom Thieves who grew up among the wealthy elite and was pretty sheltered for a long time. Her father was going to forcibly marry her off to a creepy older man and she got sick and tired of being a puppet, so she tried to change her dad's heart and he was super murdered instead. It was for the best, I prommy, but no points to the folks who did it.

    Despite the general shitty rich people she grew up around, Haru is an incredibly kind and polite young girl. As always, she has some complex grief surrounding her father's death that's exacerbated in Laby sometimes.

    She's a great friend to have and very loyal to those who establish deep bonds with her and treat her with love and mutual respect. Basically, max out her social link and you will have a friend for life! She also now has her grenade launcher! Haru will now blow up your enemies for you.

    She's taken from before entering the Sapporo Jail in Strikers! I plan to canon update her sometime in March to post-Strikers timeline.

Permissions Post: Here.

Event Plans:

  • Damn, her own canon causing problems. Well, she's here to help! Haru naturally has familiarity with the Shadows, the Reaper, etc. She might be fun to try in a navi role for those who are experiencing this for the first time. She's not really a navi, but desperate times call for desperate measures?
  • That said, Haru is a tank with solid support skills. Naturally, I want fighting threads against Shadows. Also SHOWTIMES.
  • Mouse shenanigans, please.
  • Happy to do some change of hearts, if needed! I won't have Haru affected by this, I think. If I do, honestly this would be relegated to canonmates or very close CR regarding her concerns for Hyodo Mariko back home.

Non Event Plans:

  • Always up for text threads.
  • She's only giving Akira, Minato and Kazuya Valentine's chocolates, sorry! She won't be giving any others, but if someone gives her she'll say thanks!

[personal profile] owaininglight 2026-02-09 05:13 am (UTC)(link)

Junebug | Shadow Milk Cookie

[personal profile] jugglery 2026-02-09 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name and Pronouns: Junebug and she/her
Contact: [plurk.com profile] ogerpon or shinyogerpon on discord. plurk is best, and you are free to add or send me a message!
Timezone: PST

Character Name: Shadow Milk Cookie
Canon: Cookie Run: Kingdom
Character Age: ancient...... at least 100+ and older than Pure Vanilla Cookie
General Info: a villain back on Earthbread, Shadow Milk is currently learning how to navigate through life as a powerless squishy human. he's trying to figure out the whole friendship is magic thing, and he doesn't seem to be as lonely in this world as he was back home. HMMMM. very interesting. he must learn more, for science.

Shadow Milk is a character who covers up his loneliness with funny jokes and magic tricks. while he was once considered the wise Fount of Knowledge eons ago, his powers became corrupted and he grew jaded enough to turn against Cookiekind. his fall from grace wasn't pretty, but he is BACK with a vengeance! at least, he was on that path of destruction and chaos before he was kidnapped and brought to Laby. hoohoo silly. he's still kind of angry about that!

Permissions Post: here

Event Plans: while i am working on getting Shadow Milk some of his powers back this month (yay!), he will be participating in the event. i'll probably toplevel? i'm not sure, yet. but i have thoughts about things.
~ mementos: feel free to plot with me if you'd like to see Earthbread and Beast-Yeast, or the Spire of Deceit! you might even see some of Shadow Milk's sordid past! and by sordid, i mean depressing. i am open to all kinds of CR, new and old. i want more people to see the Cookies!
~ contract: going with Moon Arcana for his contract. his Persona will look like this and will brainwash enemies. he will be fighting as a pair with Pure Vanilla Cookie, first, but if you want to team up with him for the Reaper, PLEASE poke me. probably only open to old CR for pairs.
~ bonds: open to new and old CR! become friends or enemies with Shadow Milk. he's s tough nut to crack, but he's lonely, so it's not impossible. if you show him kindness he WILL be confused, but loyal. probably!
~ distorted desires: open to new and old CR. stop the corruption from overtaking him! he may have a crashout here.

Non Event Plans: like i said, Shadow Milk will probably get some powers back, soon. so you're welcome to talk to him about it, see what he can do. also, there will be a joint network post between Pure Vanilla Cookie and Shadow Milk Cookie later on in the month. he will be introducing William Cakespeare III. yeah. he'll also be answering Cookie-world-related questions. stay tuned.

Eren Jaeger | Attack on Titan

[personal profile] abandonhumanity 2026-02-09 03:22 am (UTC)(link)

((please see CWs before continuing))

Character Name: Eren Jaeger
Canon: Attack on Titan
Character Age: 19 in canon, 20 in game (almost 21)
General Info:
Attack on Titan spoilers go here...
Eren is a protagonist turned antagonist who lets his hatred and grief consume him to the point of destroying 80% of the world's population.

Generally, he's not a very nice guy. He can be exceptionally cold, judgmental, or downright aggressive. He'll pry into the insecurities of others to satisfy his own, and will step on whoever he finds to be weaker than him (for the most part). He has a lot of exceptionally problematic worldviews and will openly state them. He thinks the locals are animals and wants them all dead, wants all the NPCs dead, wants Vaeros, who is already dead, dead again - etc., etc. However, CR with Eren can be extremely rewarding. He loves hard and becomes extremely loyal to those he's close to.
Permissions Post: we link her twice because we love her

Event Plans:
Okay. Here we go.

First of all, Eren's persona will be a depiction of The Founder Ymir, who is essentially began Eren's race of people (there's a lot more to her, but I won't infodump here). She'll most often appear as a little girl, but may also occasionally look more like this. She'll have curse and bless attacks for the most part, or attacks that inflict "forget" or "brainwash" (we could play with this a bit in a combat thread...)

As well as that:
-interested in shadow slaying in either mementos or the reality proper - will take on a lot of combat threads if the interest is there tbh

-I want him making LOTS of confidant deals so let's do this

-I am interested in creating some showtimes for closer cr or cr that progresses during the event

-very interested in someone attempting a change of heart at either crystal - will take one or two threads of this - I think I'm most interested in him being ripped away from his ideal reality...

He will have an open top-level and I'm not limiting my threads. :3c TL will probably include a combat prompt and a confidant prompt at minimum

Non Event Plans: Only looking or event threads this time around! I'll plot later in the month if that changes. :3c

Sakunosuke Oda | Bungo Stray Dogs

[personal profile] savetheweak 2026-02-09 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Sakunosuke Oda
Canon: Bungo Stray Dogs
Character Age: 23 in canon, 25 in game
General Info:
Your favorite orphan dad who haunts the narrative is back! Odasaku is the former lowest-ranking member of the Port Mafia, and an assassin before that. He's so feared in Yokohama that both the cops and criminals avoid his neighborhood - he's a pretty nice guy, though. He looks tough and scary on the outside, but really he just wants to have a drink, a cigarette, and a chat. He's enjoying his life here without having to work in the criminal underground, and he wants (and has wanted) to be a writer - he just needs to actually write.
Permissions Post: including permissions for his ability flawless

Event Plans:
Let's-a go!

Oda's persona will be a representation of the narrator character in "Flawless", which is a short story by the real Sakunosuke Oda.

I'm going to be 100% honest. It is so hard to find a translation of that story that isn't behind a paywall. So I only read like half of it. But it's okay. We're just playing toys. Tori saved my life and sent it to me. Everyone say thank you to Tori.

With that said, she will appear as a...persona-ified version of an otherwise average-looking woman in a kimono. Just...let your imagination play with it idk. She'll have a lot of psy and gun attacks. Also idk? If future attacks are a thing in Persona 5? But idc she's doing that too.

With that said:
-once again interested in shadow slaying, whether it be in mementos or in the reality proper

-I think I want to sign oda up for the reaper fight but I'm not sure who with, so reach out to me if ur interested and if we think it would be a good fit we can cook :3c

-CR-BUILDING EVENT? CONFIDANTS! CONFIDANTS! I want him to seek out new people and BOND, goddammit. HE'LL OFFER TO TEACH GUN SKILLS EVERY TIME BTW. SO. IF UR CHARACTER WANTS TO LEARN HOW TO SHOOT.

-interested in some showtimes with cr that ranks up during the event :}a

-also somewhat??? interested in the crystals or maybe oda can try to change someone's heart

I'll probably have an open top-level for Odasaku this time around too :3c will def have combat and confidant prompts...

Non Event Plans: Oda can be found daily at Club Quartz having a drink (this makes him sound like some kind of video game npc--), so if u want a drink-and-chat thread, I'm always down, just hmu :3b

Anything else:
It involves cw: gun violence, so I'm kindly linking it, but look at this badass Flawless gif...

Mikoto Sano | A Terrified Teacher at Ghoul School! (Yohaji!)

[personal profile] noentry 2026-02-09 03:25 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Mikoto Sano
Canon: A Terrified Teacher at Ghoul School! (Yohaji!)
Character Age: 17 (?)
General Info:
In many ways, Sano is just a teenager. He hangs out with his friends and goes to school, has a part time job, a best friend, isn't even ready to date.

He's also a young god of misfortune and a major sadist, as we saw at the curry contest. He doesn't have his powers right now, but normally he can use them to cause all manner of misfortune to befall his targets.

Really, he's a sweet kid, though. He doesn't like to hurt people's feelings and he's a loyal friend.
Permissions Post: slaps this down

Event Plans:
Big huge very recent Yohaji spoilers under here...
Sano's persona will be the traditional depiction of Susanoo-no-Mikoto (Sano's real name, as we recently found out...)

What I can tell you about Sano's Persona that isn't a major spoiler is that he looks like this, followed around by thunder clouds. He uses curse and electric attacks, and attacks that inflict the "despair" status ailment

Other thangs:
-sano won't want to hurt the shadows...he's gonna sit the combat part out for the most part (then why the persona? idk because I can) - we can maybe? plot for a rescue or something like that though...idk...let's chat about it

-interested in strengthening cr/getting new cr with the confidant part of the event

-aside from that, I'll mostly be tagging out with sano this time around :3c no thread limit, however

Non Event Plans: Only looking at event things right now, but may plot later in the month for something.

flat escardos | fate/strange fake

[personal profile] escardos 2026-02-09 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: flat escardos
Canon: fate/strange fake
Character Age: 19 in canon, 20 in laby!
General Info: local idiot genius with too much energy and too little self control! he WILL get himself into trouble if you're not looking, and he WILL be getting you into trouble too if you don't catch him! Has more info (and spoilers)...
Permissions Post: here!


Event Plans:

    mementos: will probably wait for the event to properly go up so i can decide how exactly i'm going to do this, but maybe flat will pop up wherever he's not invited to! there is a non zero chance your characters can go to snowfield, but it really depends on how it's set up.
    contract: funny enough, flat already has a contract... with none other than his servant! servants in fate/ are somewhat similar to personas in that sense, and due to [redacted spoilers for anyone watching the anime] i think the best choice would be flat's servant, jack the ripper. they look a bit like this and this. as an emblem of madness that is fueled by the fears of people around them, they will obviously be casting fear like it's nobody's business. maybe brainwash, too. but don't worry. if you're not an enemy, they're surprisingly affable.
    bonds: BONDS!!!! FRIENDSHIP!!! FLAT'S BREAD AND BUTTER!!!!!!!!!! flat will obviously be happy to make bonds but... huh, it looks like it's a little difficult to go up in bond after a certain point! wonder why that is? don't worry about it. again, how i play this will depend on the event, but rest assured that flat will be happy to increase the amount of friends he has.
    desires: flat has no real strong desires (even his wish for the crystal was something he had to think hard about), so he could try to help others through their illusions. maybe they just need a whack on the head. it's fine.


Anything else: watch fate strange fake

[personal profile] escardos 2026-02-09 05:26 am (UTC)(link)
eren be like "i showed you my healing powers please raise my rank"

BUT ALSO YES. GRABBY HANDS FOR ODASAKU AND FLAT CR... especially with flat's persona being (sort of) the literal jack the ripper.... they probably will have much to talk about.

siffrin | in stars and time

[personal profile] siriuspuns 2026-02-09 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: siffrin
Canon: in stars and time
Character Age: mid to late twenties! who knows!
General Info: siffrin is the protagonist of in stars and time. a cool, mysterious traveler that one day joins a party that's looking to defeat the king that's freezing the country in time. they like making puns that make everyone groan, eating more food than conceivably possible, and keeping all their thoughts right in their chest until one day, they die!


also they're stuck in a time loop. wonder how that happened.
Permissions Post: here.

Event Plans:
    mementos: similar to flat, it mainly depends on the event itself, but most likely visions of his "home" will actually be the House/castle that they've been raiding loop after loop or maybe Dormont. those are the places they can remember the best, after all.
    contract: i..... do not know yet. on one hand, a persona based on mal du pays does call to me, but that might be too on the nose. stay tuned here, but siffrin WILL have a persona, so help me god.
    bonds: good.... luck bonding with siffrin? they're very skittish for the most part, and the idea of opening up to others is probably going to be as pleasant as scrubbing with sandpaper. but! they'll be very happy to hear someone else's thoughts and worries! as long as they don't have to talk about themselves, it's a~ll fine!
    desires: unlike flat, siffrin has many desires. all these revolve around staying with their found family and never leaving them, so of course they will jump at the chance of making it come true. please help them realize that this is not actually what's happening, though rest assured that he will not take this kindly.

Puck/"Robin Goodfellow"/"Owen Burnette"| Gargoyles

[personal profile] justdontgiveame 2026-02-09 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Puck/"Robin Goodfellow"/"Owen Burnette"
Canon: Gargoyles
General info: Adjacent to a Jester in Oberon's court, Puck was thrown out of Avalon around 1300-ish, give or take a decade, and sent to Earth to learn humility with the rest of the fairies from Avalon. When he learned that Oberon actually meant "Come back and pledge loyalty to me when I say so", Puck did the 1993 version of leaving Oberon on "Seen at [time here]" and spent his time getting to know humans. Feeling specifically petty against a personal assistant who worked for the then head of the Xanatos family, Puck took the assistant's entire personality and mannerisms and began working for the heads' son, David Xanatos. Puck looks at humans as free entertainment and treats them like you might treat your own favorite source of entertainment media! He's not keeping a Good Reads account or anything, but he enjoys seeing them grow, change, and occasionally bartering deals for more entertainment. Mercurial, friendly, but ready to go full Trickster mode ala "The Merchant of Venice" and word play if needed, Puck has gone through his anti hero growth path that happens [by the end of s2/the start of s3], and found love and family of choice. But he still really doesn't like pie charts and office coffee.
Permissions post: over here!
Event plans: Like with Eilonwy, I'll be tagging out only with Puck! If you want him to be involved with whatever is happening to your characters (again barring the boss fight sign up), let me know! Outside of that, he'll be amused that all of this event stuff is happening during Valentine's Day in some capacity. What's more romantic than a few monster fights? Don't ask him!
Anything else: Heated blankets do in fact get too hot sometimes! On the other hand, I've been really encouraged to stay hydrated!
waterfawn: (are you certain?; doubtful;)

Eilonwy|The Black Cauldron (movie)

[personal profile] waterfawn 2026-02-09 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
Character name: Eilonwy of Llyr, usually just goes by Eilonwy
Canon: The Black Cauldron (movie)
General info: Headstrong princess, was kidnapped by the villain to help find a macguffin item (The Black Cauldron), escaped, made friends, helped save her world. She still loves and misses Taran, and is just trying to help others where she can while dealing with her own stuff.
Permissions post: here and Telepathy
Event Plans: I'm going to be tagging around with her and Puck for this one! I'll be busy for the majority of this week and after, but I don't want to entirely sit the event out. If either of yours would like her or Puck to fight some shadows (barring the reaper boss fight because scheduling), deal with sudden transport magic going haywire or anything else, let me know! Other than that, it's same as it ever goes!
Anything else: For real though, my "amount of water drank/day" stat on my tracker app is like "Who are you and where's Misa? What are these consistent high numbers logged?"

Gore | Owain

[personal profile] owaininglight 2026-02-09 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name and Pronouns: Gore
Contact: [plurk.com profile] goreo or disgore on discord
Timezone: EST

Character Name: Owain
Canon: Fire Emblem: Awakening
Character Age: 18
General Info: Owain, or Owain Dark as he likes to call himself, is a young swordsman with a dramatic flair. He very much lives up to the 'chuunibyou' archetype - he exaggerates how powerful is, compares his 'sword hand' and his bloodline to being cursed/sacred/dark and talks a lot about forces of the universe and darkness. He's also very big on heroism and legends. He can admit to some of his behaviors as being improvisation and drop the facade occasionally, but for the most part he's Like That. Owain is a genuinely skilled swordman who has actual skill for swordplay and for maintaining as well as armor - as well as being intent on coming up with 'cool' names for all weapons and armor plus attacks. He's ultimately a good person who is striving to be a great hero, just in his own weird and over-the-top way, while also being haunted by the trauma of the crapsack future he originally hailed from.
Permissions Post: Here


Event Plans:

- Definitely looking forward to event things! Owain will be all for taking on Shadows, exploring Mementos and trying to fight the Reaper. While he has skills of his own, he will also be awakening a Persona!

- I am thinking his Persona should be based on some legendary figure within the history of his Fire Emblem world. I might look through some more possible candidates, but thus far I am leaning towards Hoðr, who is also known as the Black Knight, as Owain likes to believe he's inherited the sword Mystletainn that originally belonged to him. Might specialize in Dark element? All of this is tentative, and I'm open to feedback and suggestions!

- All for support conversations - I mean social link building with anyone and everyone! Please let's pull-off some madcap Showtimes!

- Owain will be available to try to help social links break through the crystal illusions! I am not quite sure if I will subject Owain himself to it though, just because I've played out similar scenarios here in the past and don't want to retread there unless I can think of different angles.

social rank / confidant deals with sano and owain please? :3c will you be TLing?

also I think oda and owain would have good cr...I'll have a tl for him with a combat option and a social link option
owaininglight: (grin)

[personal profile] owaininglight 2026-02-09 05:20 am (UTC)(link)
I am leaning towards top leveling! And both things sound good to me, Owain and Sano could go for a social link upgrade confidantly, and I am down to throwing him at Oda too! Maybe I'll see which option speaks to me more in the top level

Ryoji Mochizuki | Persona 3

[personal profile] luneminary 2026-02-09 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Ryoji Mochizuki
Canon: Persona 3
Character Age: """seventeen"""
General Info: Just a totally normal teenager who is appreciative of life and humanity as a whole and loves connecting with others! He's a sweet guy like that. He is from the canon where all of this is going on, but he's not related to any of that! Promise!
Permissions Post: Here

Event Plans:
Persona 3 spoilers here ahoy!
Ryoji isn't getting a Persona because, well. He is the Persona! Ryoji will regain his powers during this event so you might be able to see Thanatos around.

As the reason why Shadows exist in canon, the other Shadows (except for the Reaper) won't attack Ryoji - they will simply cower and skitter away in his presence. That doesn't mean he can't end up in fights with them, though! He would be going around trying to save his friends from the shadows, and that's when you might see big ol' Thanatos around.

I'm also interested in seeing Ryoji form more bonds during this event! He's not a hard guy to befriend, so if you need an easy social link with someone he's willing to sign up for it. If you're close CR you might even get to do a special showtime with him. He's also knowledgeable about what's going on, so if you need an exposition guy he's here.

Mouse shenanigans are also fun.

He might be affected by the crystals and would need a change of heart to break away from them. Ryoji wants a reality where he's free to live his own normal life and I think it would be interesting for someone to convince him that the part of himself that he rejects is an important part of him as well.

I'm still thinking if I'm going to do closed starters or a TL for Ryoji, so let me know if there's anything you want with him!

Anything else: Only linking it here since it's spoilers but look at him. He's just a little guy.

Phainon | Honkai: Star Rail

[personal profile] sunbearer 2026-02-09 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Phainon
Canon: Honkai: Star Rail
Character Age: mid-20s
General Info: Phainon is a Hero. Him and his buddies the Chrysos Heirs are supposed to save the world together but he as the Deliverer is like an extra special chosen one, with a prophecy about it to boot. On the surface he's your typical hero-style character that it hurts: he's friendly and charismatic, he's helpful to others, and he wields a heavy greatsword like it's nothing. If there's anything you need, he shall always be there to help you out! He's a good person because he purposely chooses to be one.

Phainon is a Hero. What Phainon isn't is a person.
Permissions Post: Here!


Event Plans: Phainon's Persona is the Titan Cronus, associated with time and harvest. He's gonna look like this!

He will be gunning for the Reaper, as well as trying to do some shadow slaying in both Mementos and in the actual world proper. His goal is ensure as many people's safety as possible.

As friendly as he is, CR will realize that his social link with pretty much everybody is going to stick to 1. This is because he doesn't get people close to him, despite his demeanor! Feel free to call him out on this.

Non Event Plans: I'm still accepting tagouts to his curry contest TL!

Kurahashi Yuuta | A Terrified Teacher at Ghoul School!

[personal profile] subdivide 2026-02-09 06:05 am (UTC)(link)
Character Name: Yuuta Kurahashi
Canon: A Terrified Teacher at Ghoul School!
Character Age: sixteen (?)
General Info: He's one of the students of Class 2-3, a youkai known as a kudan - they are essentially bull-like creatures that can predict misfortune around them. Kurahashi is a bit dumb, but makes up for it with his great athlete skills, earning him a spot at their school's basketball club. Other than that, he's pretty mild-mannered and caring, and enjoys supporting his friends from the sidelines. Deep down, he's just a normal guy!

don't worry about this spoiler tag it's not real
Except pretty much everything I just said is a lie.

The real Yuuta is a cold, stoic character that has no qualms of using violence to get through problems as soon as possible. He's a spy from Takamagahara (Land of the Gods, basically) sent in to spy at this youkai school - Haruaki Abe and Sano Mikoto especially. Nothing much is known about him (yet), but he is essentially someone who has been through too much hardships to actually view the world through rose-tinted glasses - as much as he wants to wholeheartedly enjoy school.


Permissions Post: Tadaa

Event Plans: Kurahashi's Persona is the bodyguard demon-slaying sword Onimaru Kunitsuna. I don't have an appearance for it yet, but if I'm lazy enough I might use his Touken Ranbu equivalent.

Kurahashi is going to stick close to CR that he knows of, especially Ebisu, making sure that they are safe from attacks. Team-ups will be welcome!

Also interested in someone triggering a change of heart with him. He has issues with reconciling his two personas (lol) and determining which one's the mask and which one is real to him, making him a perfect victim for the crystals.

Luz Noceda/ The Owl House

[personal profile] a_cute_batata 2026-02-09 07:58 am (UTC)(link)
Player Name and Pronouns: Pedro, he/him
Contact: [plurk.com profile] elpedrososama
Timezone: EST

Character Name: Luz Noceda
Canon: The Owl House
Character Age: 18 by now!
General Info: Luz is a relatively average (neurodivirgent coded)girl who has trouble fitting with her surroundings, and by a strange turn of events, winds up leaving them entirely! She winds up in a demon world where she learns magic is real, creatures are not what they seem and that there is a lot to learn if she's willing! And here she learns magic, makes friends, gets a girlfriend and then learns all is not as it appears to be.

She is still grappling with the changes she learns and how its changed her when she is whisked away to this new world, where she's aged, made new friends and family and intends to get even better with her own strength and magic!


Permissions Post: Here!


Event Plans: What are you looking to do in the event? I plan to put Luz through the ringer on this one. She's going to have her moment of wandering and fears preying on her in Mementos before she fights back and when doing so she'll be in her true Titan form as her persona!

I plan to have her being involved in any fights I can wrangle for her, though she is going to have her own struggles once she gets near the crystal. Luz has been having a very twisty few months, so it naturally follows she'll be dealing with temptations she didn't even know she's held onto.

Non Event Plans: I plan to get Luz attempting to restart her coven again! I've been kinda coasting on it since Eda left, but now I'm hoping to get it going! Also, I'm going to actually try and track my threads again so I can hopefully get Luz closer to having her rec center she'd been talking about months ago!

Anything else: titan Luz [Image by kacperkrysiak@ Deviant Art]!
