Timeskip CR Meme
While similar to the CR meme in some ways, the fields within the text area below are meant to facilitate planning and plotting so that by the time the CR meme rolls around everyone has a much clearer idea of what all has been happening and in what direction they are heading, especially as the timeskip looms large on the horizon.
Should you need it, you can always refer to the re-posted Timeskip Calendar for ideas! Characters have already been starting up businesses (coffee shops, playhouses, a P.I. office, even a business selling non-locket network devices!) so be sure to check it out!
If you intend to opt out of the timeskip, please PM the mod account with the dates/nature of your opt out!

As a note, please remember the following:
- There will be no new shardbearers, no monthly events (and perforce no boons). Monarch contact will be limited to include shardbearers highly ranked within their court.
- Fairy rings will be inoperable. Powers, abilities, and boons may be used to allow for fast-travel. Otherwise, characters must hoof it to where they wish to go.
- Lockets will not work. Characters would need traditional means to keep in touch, or need to fashion (or purchase) their own alternative means of magical communication. These alternative devices can be used on the network alongside lockets, and can be fashioned to interact with lockets.
- Border violence will be the norm. Small incursions and raids into enemy territory will be frequent. Unseelie in Seelie territory, and vice versa, will be hunted by patrols/town guards/etc. NPC guards may unexpectedly drop into threads where characters are in enemy territory.
- Boons all perform to their original specifications. None are depowered or vanished, though all would show the signs of age as appropriate for the passage of time.
- Influence and quests would continue to be given and rewarded as normal (one quest per player per ooc month), for our OOC sanity. PCs who are able to give quests are encouraged to have an expanded docket of them at the ready.
So, without further ado!

katsa ; graceling ; unseelie
( BASIC ★ INFORMATION )
Character: Katsa of the Middluns
Series: The Seven Kingdoms/Graceling Realm Trilogy
Court: Unseelie
Current Location: The Station
Planned Travel: very broadly: to Caer Scima, then Ariadne's spire, then the forest between Spires 2 and 10 (she has a fast-travel ring and a cleg, though the cleg is currently missing and will need to be found). Katsa will spend most of the timeskip year on the road, including a possible attempt at an incursion into Glaschu.
General overview of recent events: Katsa's just begun the process of forming a cross-court alliance of people named after her Council at home, intended to aid the defenseless and neutral parties residing in the Drabwurld. They had their first meeting days before the battles began and are looking to include more people. Plans include general defense and a hospital/safe refuge, but this is mostly in secret for now.
She was present at the attack of Caer Scima. Katsa was one of the last to leave, stubbornly staying throughout the evacuations in hopes of finding some weakness she could exploit. In the end she had to admit defeat, but others at the attack may have seen a particularly dramatic confrontation with Kaldur.
Lately she's been using her ring that allows her to teleport throughout Dorchadas in order to check on her friends and combat the fires in La Llorona, though she'll have to use non-magical travel to arrive at the spires.
Recent open threads/posts: at the battle/evacuation of Caer Scima

Council stuff. And Drabwurld affairs. And just...all of this.
no subject
okay so!! there will definitely be a few council meetings throughout the year after some of the events, and nasrin is def going to be one of the people she trusts most. there should be at least one log for that or something. katsa will want to learn a lot about what nasrin's been up to in thedas. and.... general shenanigans?? katsa's getting in at least one bar fight lmf
no subject
we need a bull in this game to meet with katsa

porthos has promised a night of cheating at cards and drinking and tavern brawls at least, and i know katsa's just going to be doing whatever seems like a good idea at the time even if it's definitively not because what's life without excitement. so i'm up for anything!
no subject
Especially if he can watch Katsa largely during the brawling
extra especially if she gets into a vicious fight with another lady
no subject
ALSO I'm not entirely sure how but possibly exploring building CR with Hiro and Katsa as well? He still wants to know why a direwolf and why blue tyvm
no subject
i want to get katsa to a point of wanting to open up about herself to him too sometime, there's no way she should go over a year without giving something :T
(also playing dress-up with her for festivals)
yes to hiro and katsa too! haha maybe they can meet up for the actual wolf-dyeing process if he finds indigo. she never got a chance to do it with everything going on. annnnd talk of general unseelie things, at least for now?
no subject
(YES. He's dressed up Kelsi on multiple occasions, Katsa will be a piece of cake)
Considering he didn't get a chance to find the woad or indigo or anything because of everything going on that would actually be reasonable. Also yes talk of general unseelie things because he's so unseelie right now it's hilarious.

no subject
but she's welcome to come stay at azure at any time during the timeskip and even beyond! he'll definitely keep training her in fire and have her keep training him in fighting and the like
and talk to her about mai. also, what's this council she's getting together?they also may bump into each other while travelling, too! lets hold hands.
no subject
ahh she'll definitely come spend some time there! unless she gets a house for a boon or something she won't have a home base for the year and would love to chill and hear about his dangerous girlfrand. any months in particular work for that? i'm thinking summer or fall but she'll pop in and out to say hi c:
oh, so council! so she has one at home and wanted to make it here too to give herself something to do to feel useful. it's neutral in the sense that it's interested in defending the defenseless and injured and investigating corrupt scandals in the drabwurld without necessarily interfering with war efforts (unless something big ever pops up????) and also to make sure her friends have safe contacts lmfskdj and zuko is totally welcome if he's any interest in it!
no subject
any! she knows zuko, we can easily handwave he said something about it or she heard from an imp or someone else that he's in quendi. so, we don't have to wait for it to come up in conversation, we can just assume she finds out with whatever way you prefer. he might be popping off to mount verla sometime in the summer, but any month really works for me. he'll be spending at least a week per month in azure so! whichever works best for you. he can teleport back and forth so it's not like he was anywhere tbh.
defending the defenseless -- zuko's sold.

no subject
omg though yeah as mentioned he and any musketeers and associates are welcomed to her house!! she's just one little graceling by the sea.... and i def want to do tavern night bc it could get Wild
OH SO ALSO ADVENTURING NOTE: i found out that if they try to sneak into glaschu without the ability to mask shards they could wind up anywhere from chased out to captured so i'm totally leaving it up to you whether that life decision should be attempted hehe
LET'S GO SAVE SOME FOLK AND LOOK DASHING...
no subject
