> MARCH CR MEME

Happy March, Larkers! TIme to talk to you all again—though there isn't much that's too different from what we announced earlier today!

So, here we go!

◉ First off, in case you missed it: March Update. This covers AC (it's check-in only for March!), the Metaplot Engagement post for Monday, and Aftermath Power Up notes.

Our big catchup tool is our The Story So far page! No one needs to have this memorized, and hopefully our phrasing makes it easier to CTRL+F exactly what you need! The bullet points should cover the big meat, and it's up to you if you want to click to read further on anything. This will be updated again at the beginning of April!

◉ Check out our Setting Page for any ideas you might need about the world at large!

◉ We also recommend that you check out our JOBS PAGE and LOCATION PAGE to get the brain moving. As a quick note: everyone can add and create new locations for New Amsterdam (and, eventually, develop other megacities)! We'll always review them and reach out to you if any changes need to be made.

◉ Our monthly calendars are also a place where we do minimal worldbuilding, and it's where the mods leave monthly messages to our playerbase.

◉ The arrival log will be tomorrow! It's going to directly play into some larger metaplot elements while otherwise being low key, acting as a backdrop to the Opening Day for local baseball team, the New Amsterdam Koniki.

[interminably]

> PLAYER

NAME & PRONOUNS: Brandon, Brando, B
CONTACT: manipulative
AREAS OF INTEREST: Mostly RP, honestly. RP and TV. I'm not a huge Plurker. And it's usually game or PSL related. Rarely, RL. But, sometimes I just have to share something like a picture, an idea, or what I'm doing. Sometimes it's a cocktail I'm drinking!

> CHARACTER

NAME: Klaus Mikaelson
CANON: The Originals
JOURNAL: interminably
POWER: currently, feeling when the people he loves are in pain/inherently knowing where they are... trying for a power upgrade among a few plot developments... more to come.
JOB: His current job is Assistant Gallery Manager of a yet to be named art gallery. He's surprisingly good at his job. He has one of my most fun recurring jokes in a philandering boss who's never around. But, he does good work. Goes to the parties.
SUMMARY OF LAST MONTH:

Klaus acclimated to having his power halved to that of an olympic athlete as well as the other aspects of being a vampire being diminished. He did not take them well at first going on a three day or so bender. He posited to the network that there is more to being Displaced and they may be repeating history. He also reached out to other brain surgery participants and gathered some more information on Johannes. He invited Tim Gutterson to a charity gala thrown by Caroline Forbes and Clarke won him in a bachelor auction the next night. At the gala Klaus saw something new in Tim, something he hadn't seen before. After spending a day making preparations for a trip abroad with Ginia, Klaus made good on his date with Clarke, drank his sorrows quietly away at Red Wings (only the one bottle) and whisked Ginia off to Casablanca in order to get away. Unbeknownst to those he's closest to, Hope was sent home and he hasn't told anyone yet.

PLANS FOR THE NEXT MONTH: Klaus will be taking another, more lengthy, trip to New Beijing with Tim in tow. The details of which are being ironed out, but they're getting in good with Morningstar in order to delve into this business of kids being taken away from their families. Their aim will be reuniting them. It's also a metaphorical way of dealing with losing his daughter and Kol whom up and vanished.
AREAS OF INTEREST: One thing on hold is the mystery of Johanne and Cassius as Klaus still wants revenge. But, Klaus will provide any and all information necessary up to and including the means of his and Hope's torture and what he and Hope are.
HANDWAVED CR OPPORTUNITIES: He brings not-abysmal clothing to the safe house, drinks at Red Wings, used to stalks daughters' whereabouts and apartment complex. This past month, he started to go to the gym regularly. He can also be found at the various art galleries, museums, and small cafes.
OVERALL GOALS: Currently, his in game goal is to ignore anything and everything and accomplish something he can get his hands on. In this case, investigate New Beijing and reunite children with their families! Outside of game, he will be sure to be active on the network and in characters' inboxes. Maybe on the character intros.
ANYTHING ELSE: Gifless, today! Deal with it.
