beneath the stars

It's been a week since our newest expansion officially launched! And, I know, I know... some of you already have a lot of feelings that you need to air out. But canon updating in your games is a struggle! And so is finding PSL partners! Luckily, that's what we're here for.

This is a post for you to play out all the Shadowbringers-related content you might be dying to write. Behind-the-scenes nonsense? Between-the-scenes angst? It's all welcome here!

1. Toplevel your character. Include any details you might think are relevant. Or don't. As always, we're not the cops.
2. Reply to other people's top levels!
3. Have fun!

⚔ Please clearly mark all spoilers in your thread subject lines. Clearly indicate whatever spoiler preferences you may have. We're only a week into the expansion, officially, and there's no shame if you're not far in it or haven't started it yet.

⚔ You are welcome to play characters who are new to Shadowbringers. However, please try to avoid topleveling with icons and descriptions that convey major plot-related spoilers.

If you aren't certain about a character's playability, feel free to PM

Heh. Yes, saying I hit my head is certainly more believable.

[Papayako chuckles, a twinge of nervousness in his laugh as he tries to wrap his head around what is going on. So Sigr just woke up here, eh? No odd headaches or blacking out at inopportune moments?]

I've only been in this land for a few moons-- Ah. Well. Figuratively. It's been difficult to keep track of. You, er...

[Wait. Hang on. What's he supposed to say? "Have you heard of the Warrior of Light? That's me, sorry that you can't go home?" "I practice forbidden magic with a ragtag group of beastmen and I've never seen you before in my life, please don't rat me out to the Ossuary?"]

Wherever did you learn your spells, Sigr? I had studied in Ul'dah for years, but I don't recall meeting you.

[Getting here had been something in of itself. He had blacked out, only to wake up here with some thing staring down at him. Luckily, he was quick with a spell and it had turned into a fight for his life against what turned out to be the first Sin Eater he would ever see. It wasn't long before lucky was with him, or maybe it already was, that he had followed a patrol back to the Crystarium and slipped his way in. From there... well, nothing had been the same. And who exactly was he supposed to talk to about any of this?!

...Evidently this guy. Who has been here nearly as long as him. How many moons is a 'few'?

Little did they know the Exarch had thought his spell had gone awry only to re-attempt it shortly after.]

Yeah, suppose you get used to it, after a while. [Bloody hells does he miss a proper nighttime. He's taken to sleeping with a mask on because the first two weeks here had been a nightmare to his sleep cycle.

Aaaand then Papayako goes for that area of his life that Sigr Does Not Talk About, but thankfully, he has an easy lie on his lips.]

Never made my way to Ul'dah, not really. [Lie.] I'm not one for the desert. [Nose wrinkle of distaste - truth.] I had a mentor, but unfortunately, they passed some time ago. [Partial truth. He had a mentor, but they still lived. He just wasn't about to talk about who or what his mentor was. So instead, he puts sorrow into his voice, as if it's a wound still open and sore.

How ironic that both of them, really, had their magicks based in similar places... they just had no idea.]
