NOVAS;


Novas


Two participants have been chosen by Sol and Lune to fill the role of Novas in this game. Once a week, the two players will meet with them to share intel, discuss strategy, and receive updates on the competition at large.

As Novas:
Every Tuesday, Novas will be allowed to investigate the on-goings and whereabouts of precisely one participant in the game. They must agree on who this person is as they only get one shot per week! Upon picking this person, the Signs will be able to supply a list of who this person has spoken with in the past week, where they've gone, and what their elemental alignment is. They will also be told if this person has an additional role.

Should Novas investigate someone who has an additional role, the Signs will only confirm that one exists, not what it is.

Novas will be able to send one anonymous message to one player in the game per week. While it's encouraged that the Novas agree on the contents and recipient, this is not necessary. One Nova may choose to send the message to someone. Once one Nova sends a note, this exhausts the opportunity for the week and the Novas may not try again until the following week. Novas may not collect these opportunities with the hopes of sending more than one note in the following weeks. If you do not take that week's opportunity, it will disappear. Moderators will handle the coordination and delivery of this note.

Novas may also investigate each other if they want!

When the Signs seek to summon Novas, a portal will appear when a Nova finds themselves alone. Upon entering this portal, they will be brought into a tea room where the Signs are waiting for them. When their visit in the room concludes and they choose to exit, the portal will disappear. Novas will find that no matter how long they spent in the tea room, no time has elapsed outside of the portal.

Additional notes:
The Novas will be allowed to ask questions about the ongoings of the games and communicate with the Signs in their weekly meetings. They will be able to also receive small hints in the game should they perform well, including game mechanics, locations and more. However, the information received will be up to Sol and Lune's discretion.

If a Nova does not put in the work to encompass their role, they will become more vulnerable and likely to be a victim! However, this does not mean the Novas absolutely must agree on every little detail.

Best of luck.

[He shrugs a bit.]

Perhaps. It did seem like she was being framed, hm?

Lune said last week that her role was protective, though... Are you sure something like that would be protective?

It could be, but... [Another shrug.] She doesn't seem willing to trust. Perhaps Shirasu wouldn't be able to get it out of her.

[After a moment, she shakes her head.]

Like I said, I don't know what her role is. I'm not sure.

[He seems horrendously skeptical by the look on his face, but lets it go.]

We'll just have to find out, won't we?

Or we could just let it go, since she's probably doing everyone a solid no matter what.

Usually I enjoy surprises, but... in this case...

I don't know what to tell you. You want to write the note so we can leave?
