Event: Fourth Wall
HELLO IMEEJI, today we're here to tell you about our upcoming Fourth Wall event, set to be run November 17th through December 7th!
Event Summary: For this event, characters from outside Imeeji will enter as special guest stars, for participation in a special trauma game with four temporary extra units added for the "guest stars" to play on.
Guest stars can be any character, even those typically not appable into imeeji, like characters who are CRAU/PG. That said, if you do choose to play a character who is being taken from another game, the character will be under a demonic non-disclosure agreement. They will be unable to talk about their experiences in other games, and we ask that players not try to go around it by talking in code or attempting charades or anything— we want Imeeji to not have the IC impression of existing in a multiverse of similar set-ups, and we don't want to have to reconsider this event because of players or characters trying to circumvent this rule.
Other than that, Guest Star characters can be amnesiac or not amnesiac as you prefer. Characters already in Imeeji will be ICly told that these characters come from other Liar Hell shows, and are here for just a short while for the sake of an upcoming game.
The game we're running during this event will be Game Master's game, as it doesn't require an even amount of people on the units, is a fairly long game, and gives a good opportunity for fourth wall characters to also get to participate in trauma! For those unfamiliar, GM game is a game played in several rounds over the period of about ten days. Each round they receive cards with various bad things on it, and point values from one to ten (like, itching powder down someone's pants for 2 points, or break an arm for 6, etc). They'll be given random hands, and need to play 1 to 3 cards per turn, and they'll try to get the most points! It's a fairly simple game, but we'll have a more comprehensive write-up of game rules and gameplay made accessible before the date.
GM will last for 10 days, tentatively, allowing for there to be time beforehand for people to get to know their guest stars, and time afterwards for fallout, but we're still nailing down the exact specifics of the dates.
And lastly, introducing the new temporary units!YOU-kai
Unit Uniform: Similar to Taisho Roman Revolution, YOU-kai are in Japanese clothing, but there's no requirement for there to be western or modern modifications made to them. Their accessories, meanwhile, are more like Wild City in that they all match to each member's chosen youkai.
Primary Unit Color: Lapis Lazuli Blue
Unit Live: Offerings and Display of Power
Unit Character traits for videos:None provided. Guest stars are already known for something else outside their units!
Unit Abilities: Creatures of LegendBakemono Obtain one "at-will" feature belonging to their "mascot" youkai, with the advantages offered by it-- this will only appear when the user wants it to, so they don't have to manifest claws, wings, or other features all the time. For instance, if someone has the Tengu as their youkai, they can get wings for flight.
The Myriad Gods: Obtain a power associated with the youkai your character has chosen/been assigned for them to obtain. For instance, someone who goes with an Kitsune can take shape-shifting.
Oni: Can still function at "wasted" levels of drunk and won't die of alcohol poisoning.
Kotodama: Write down a single word on a paper, up to five a day. These are stored spells, so you can write like BARRIER and make a BARRIER with it or SADNESS and make someone SAD
Kamikakushi: The ability to teleport, but you must teleport one person along with you each time you use it.
The Power of Names: Against another who does not know your true name, you can go invisible/intangible/unhearable. The true name is their name canonically, outside of Imeeji.
Each member gets their own Youkai theme, which is pre-set, however can ICly be changed provided the web design on the selection menu is kind enough. This way, players who would like to OOCly select an animal that characters wouldn't ICly select can choose to do so.
The youkai selection menu shows a list of animals. Characters may view pictures of each youkai as well as read tiny informational blurbs regarding their legends.
YOU-kai members may buy Bakemono twice, The Myriad Gods twice, or one of each as players desire.
Please write-up whatever power you're giving them for the Myriad Gods and Bakemono. We ask you not give them a power you can god-mode with, so nothing that is a one-hit KO ability, something that makes them invincible, instakill, mind-reading, etc. Please try to match the "power levels" of other units powers.10IV (pronounced Tenshi)
Unit Uniform: Characters on this unit are dressed as doctors, medical researchers, and nurses. An outfit with a labcoat is fine or medical student scrubs, as is dressing as mad-scientist with a face mask, or any variation of a nurse's outfit. Their accessories are angel wings, to match their unit name.
Primary Unit Color: #66CDAA, Hospital Scrub Teal
Unit Live: Research, Creation
Unit Character traits for videos:None provided. Guest stars are already known for something else outside their units!
Unit Abilities: InformationPaper Trail They can check other character's purchase records from the points shop.
Doctor-Patient Confidentiality: They can stop someone from repeating something they told them or overheard from them, effectively swearing a statement into secrecy.
Medical Record: They can tell another person's current physical state, in terms of injury, illnesses, are they sleep deprived, etc.
Historical Record: They can examine an item or thing's historical record to tell one piece of information about its previous use: for instance, if it's been used before, how to use it if it's something they're unfamiliar with, who it belonged to, how many times it was used, etc. For example, they could check a book's historical record to see how many people have read it before, or who was the last person to read it, or where it's been stored in the past, etc.
Lab Tool Safety Measures: This is their combat power, and it basically was any "tool" they use they'll be able to use it safely. Unlike avante's weapon competency skill, this doesn't make them GOOD at a weapon nor does it heal them, it just makes them immune to damage from something they're wielding. Feel free to hold your sword by the blade and not the hilt or stand in blast range of your own dynamite or decide to fight with acid, it's okay.
True/False Quiz: You can know if someone, provided THEY knew if they were giving true or false info, is giving you true or false information.Dance Macabre
Unit Uniform: The unit uniform is based off fantasy medieval clothes-- surcoats, hoods, cloaks, capes, long draping sleeves and gowns are all common, as are fabrics in tapestry-like materials and leather. And, to match their name and necromancer's theming, they have bone jewelry as their accessories, with both jewelry made out of bones like a crow-skull necklace or jewelry made to look like bones being acceptable.
Primary Unit Color: #3a243b, Deep Purple
Unit Live: Trial and Judgement
Unit Character traits for videos:None provided. Guest stars are already known for something else outside their units!
Unit Abilities: Black Magic:Bloodborne By drinking someone's blood, you can acquire one of their learned skills or knowledge temporarily, for about a day. This does not apply to purchased abilities.
Renfield: Once a day you can give one absolute order to another person. The order only will last during that day.
A Dark and Stormy Night: Make the weather outside (localized to one area or target specifically) dark and stormy, regardless of what it was like before. Length of time is up to the player.
Do Unto Others: Asmodeus's signature move, reflect physical injuries onto the person trying to harm you.
Phantom: Walk through walls and other solid objects. Does not work with living things so you can't avoid someone trying to punch you in the face.
House of Leaves: Make something twice as big on the inside, like a backpack, purse, or hallway. This ability is not stackable.
sea.Di
Unit Uniform: Beach Chic. Seashell bags and necklaces, pearl necklaces and details, sun glasses, fishnet dusters, starfish and fishnet colored tights, wide brimmed hats and open shirts on boys, mermaid scale accessories on the skin.
Primary Unit Color: Coral,
Unit Live: Salvage, Party
Unit Character traits for videos:None provided. Guest stars are already known for something else outside their units!
Unit Abilities: Atlantis:Under the Sea: Breathe underwater
Ocean Currents: Ability to shape water, so you could walk on water or carry water in little globules with you
Pure Water: Ability to generate water. It is crisp, pure, and delicious
The Lost Land: Able to always find the best path to a destination, unable to get lost, know the fastest way, if you know your destination you can find it even if you've never been there, provided it is possible to reach it. For example, characters can't go I WANT TO FIND THE EXIT TO TOKYO-F, but they can find a unitmate that is trying to hide from them.
The Lost Language: if you want to talk to someone privately you can have your conversation in a language that is completely garbled to those who have not purchased this ability.
The Lost Ways: Reduce someone's ability in a learned skill down to novice level-- they'll still be able to do it, but not terribly well. This lasts for one hour and cannot be applied to multiple skills at a time. You can make someone suck at cooking OR make them suck at dancing, but not both in the same hour.
Information about these units dorms is also upcoming! This is it for now, but you can leave questions about the upcoming event in the comments, and we'll get to them as soon as we can. We hope you're looking forward to the event!

2. If the answer is more than one, can they be on the same unit?
Re: QUESTIONS/COMMENTS/CONCERNS
2. Sure. Any guest-star unit is fine since they're all going to be ridiculously sized anyway!
