Event Post: The Hope of a Child
THE RUNDOWN
Hope's in need of energy to get the city up and running again, and now Confusion's decided to help out Hope by getting a little creative. And hey, maybe it'll be a little bit like a vacation for the inhabitants of Hadriel, right? A blast from your past, as you turn into a younger version of yourself.
That's right. Starting on January 23rd, everyone is going to have a chance to relive their childhood years. Characters will find themselves falling into a deep, unwakeable sleep - and while they're asleep, their consciousnesses will be projected outside of themselves in the form of children. They'll have all memories and experiences of that character as a child, but be totally lacking anything beyond that, with absolutely no memory of ever being an adult.
The city will be full of sleeping adults and unsupervised children - except for the few adults who don't sleep. What are you going to do? Try to play babysitter and wrangle the little ones? Or just let them run wild? Let's hope these kids don't get into too much trouble.
THE DETAILS
How much you want your character to participate is entirely up to you. Not everyone will be asleep the whole time - some people might not fall asleep at all, some might only sleep for a few hours here and there, while others might fall asleep at the beginning of the event and stay that way until the very end. Normal sleep won't be affected: people will still get as tired as normal and when they choose to sleep there will be no child version of them. However, while in that unnatural sleep, they won't need to eat or drink and will have no awareness of passing time.
What counts as a child? Anything between the ages of about 5-14, with a little leeway - we don't want too many actual babies running around, but in the end it's up to you! And if your character didn't have a childhood - if they were created as an adult, for example - it can be whatever they personally consider to be themselves as a child, whether that's an actual child they never were or simply a mentally younger version of themselves.
It's also your decision how much your character remembers from their time as a child. While they won't remember anything with perfect recall, they could have very realistic dreamlike snatches of memory or no memories at all or something in between. Maybe this is finally their chance to have that happy childhood they always wanted, and fill themselves with hope for the future. That's what Confusion is hoping, at least!
THE OVERVIEW
► January 23rd: People start falling asleep and dreaming their child selves
► February 1st: That's all, folks
no subject
Makalaure will be a tiny elf child of about twenty, so he'll look about oh, 6 or 7, with a remarkably loud voice for such a tiny creature. He's fearless, at this age, and friendly with everyone. He will also be bouncing on a big bro who won't wake up. Expect paint, glitter, and possibly (probably) explosions. Tags from him will come from
