The Aftermath


Solo or RP Format
Counts as 5 RP growth Points
Solo word minimum is 750, RP post minimum is 7

After the Aishan trees had suddenly and furiously bloomed, pollen had started to fall from the sky in never before seen quantities. The sun seemed choked by its presence and the breeze currents seemed to carry it across all of Tendaji.

Curiously enough, the impact of the pollen could be seen in earthlings...

Random earthlings across Tendaji saw cracks and fissures in their skin, shedding as if they had a sunburn. New skin tones shone through from underneath. Almost as if by magic new eye colors and crystal colors emerged with a night's rest. Earthlings changed overnight without regard to their family lineage. Brothers and sisters now sported new colors; mothers and daughters that once looked like spitting images captured the eyes of many with their sudden differences.

What could be made of these changes? The world was in upset, some overjoyed and thrilled at the new colors, others in despair as their self views shifted beneath their feet.

[ Earthlings (and those with earthling blood) have started to suddenly change colors! What does your character make of the changes? Did they change too, or do they just witness the new looks of someone close? Are they fascinated in this sudden new change, or are they in the throws of woe? Let us know how your character handles the change in the world! ]


Color Change Instructions


|| Either at the very beginning of the WE or at the very end, the owner(s) should create a post dedicated to the new colors chosen if they choose to update their palette.
|| Owners do not have to change all of the character's colors, they can opt to change just one, a few, or all.
|| Owners should specifically post which new swatch they would like (no CC, this event is for owners who specifically want new colors for their characters).
|| Characters can only choose new swatches in the race that is already established. (A hybrid with fire skin can ONLY choose fire skin, just a new shade. A hybrid with leaf crystals can ONLY choose leaf crystals, etc.)
|| Aishan hybrids that have earthling colored skin can choose to update their skin tone and the staff will decide whether their fade needs to be updated as well (if applicable). We will pick the fade color best suited to the character, owners only have to pick the base skin tone.
|| ONLY earthling colors can be updated. Aishan and Kahikinan colors are not affected by this event.
|| All updates will be made during the next growth of the character!
|| Characters can update their swatches individually of their families (colors chosen will not affect any other character in the shop).
|| Any breeding moving forward will use these new colors (consider these new swatches new genetics).
|| If you have any questions feel free to reach out to the mule, Ely, or Kana and we can help with anything individual that hasn't been addressed here!

[No changes for Fiiadri]

Fiiadri was practicing her magic tricks again when she noticed the weird pollen in the air. It made her nose scrunch and her eyes water, but other than that didn't really bother her too much. Mama had said that she should be careful anyway, so she was doing just that! She'd picked her latest spot to perform under the tree that daddy always hid in when he was watching out for mama while she worked. She didn't see him there today, so instead she would take the case in keeping watch. She was busy focusing on her coin when she spotted Taarum coming around the corner and waved at him in an attempt to get his attention.

"Hey, Stinky!! Did the pollen get up your nose too?"

[Taarum will now have █████ hair and █████ eyes.]

"Yeah," he replied, jogging over to her side. "It's gross." Taarum was a boy of few words. He rubbed at his eyes and looked at his sister's coin. Hiding had never been his strong suit and he was even worse at magic, but he did like watching Papa and Fiiadri do their tricks.

"How are you doing?"

"I feel sneezy. But hey, why's your hair all dark? Did you dip your head in a pond or something? You know mama will be real worried if something's wrong with you," Fiiadri said simply, tugging on a strand of her brother's hair. It didn't feel gross to touch, but it definitely was darker!!

Taking the initiative to inspect her brother, Fiiadri circled around him and lifted up his arms to look for any other weird things. She knew mama inspected people like this for her work sometimes so surely it was the best thing to do. "Do you feel sick? Or light-headed? I think that's the word mama uses....Uh....itchy or achy?" She tilted her head as she asked her questions, noticing the difference in his eye color.

"Hey wait your eyes look like mama's now no fair!"

Taarum didn't look in mirrors much as it was, and he certainly hadn't yet today. If Fiiadri said his hair looked different, he wasn't going to argue.

"I was in the water but I didn't dunk my head in. It was a few hours ago though. It should've dried."

He held his arms above his head for longer than her examination lasted, dropping them when she mentioned his eyes. He rubbed at them, but beyond the usual sparks he could see behind his lids when he pressed them too hard, there was no other indication that anything had changed.

"They do? This is really weird."

Fiiadri patted his hair and sure enough it felt dry to her! How odd! She finished her inspection and made a small huff of a noise before stepping back. Taarum didn't look bad at all, but adjusting to the change would be very odd. She worried what momma and daddy would think, especially considering momma would want to get him all checked out!

"Do you have super vision now? Can you detect my magic tricks? Ohhhh super eyes would be really cool!!" Fiiadri bounced around, trying to use her hands as binoculars to look at him.

He smiled properly for the first time since he'd joined his sister, and it made his normally serious expression turn goofy and childish.

"I don't think so?" Did their mother have magic eyes? Taarum already knew how a lot of Fiiadri's tricks worked, but he had figured them out by himself. Maybe if she did a new one, he could see if his eyes figured out the secret before he did. "Do you have any new magic? You could show me a trick I haven't seen and I can see if my eyes do anything weird."

Fiiadri clapped happily at the chance to show Taarum a new trick, her sleeve already prepared as she pulled another stick from her pouch. "I always have a new trick to show off. Just you watch my floating stick!"

She stuck her hand out, making sure her hidden sleeve stick was secure before pressing the other stick against her palm and securing it against the hidden stick. She pulled her hand away and waved the "floating stick" around to show Taarum.

"See?? Magic! Do your magic eyes see what it is?"

Taarum watched very carefully, squinting at Fiiadri's hand and trying to work out how the trick was accomplished. He didn't try too hard, knowing that it wasn't the kind of Magic magic that mama did sometimes, but even so, he couldn't tell how it was done. There were no bright flashes of light or arrows pointing to the part that was fooling him, and after careful consideration, he smiled and clapped. It was a little too late not to feel a bit awkward, but he had been concentrating too hard to react any sooner.

"That was really cool! But I didn't see anything. No magic eyes, I guess? Unless they need time to warm up."

"Oh! Maybe! Like once you blink it warms them up so you can activate them later! That's so cool. You've always had mama's eyes so maybe they're the same. Hmmm. I stole papa's eyes, but I don't think they're as special. Since neither of us can do magic like mama...." Fiiadri trailed off, looking at her hands. Her magic wasn't real, but maybe Taarum would have real magic!!

"It'd be so cool if you got real magic like mama. But even if you don't it's a-okay! you know? You're still my favorite stinky brother!" Fiiadri tapped his nose, grin spreading wide across her face.

"It's not too late for us to get magic." Taarum hadn't really been waiting for his powers to show up or anything, but he had thought he'd heard of kids older than them getting some. He would have to ask mama when she first figured out how to do magic.

His brows furrowed when Fiiadri prodded at him, his features quickly melting into a grin. "You're my favorite sister too, even if you're not stinky." He didn't think he smelled like anything in particular, but he didn't mind when she called him that.

"And having papa's eyes is just as cool. They see everything."

Fiiadri hummed as she thought, wondering what she would even do with magic. She'd seen bigger kids with magic but she wasn't sure if she felt the magic tingle in her fingers like it seemed mama and those other kids did. Maybe Taarum was right though. There was still time! "Magic seems a big responsibility. I like the magic I do more, I think," she responded after some consideration.

"Papa sees everything that's so true. Maybe that's why I'm way better at tricks! I got papa's eyes! He passed his skills on to me so I could be so cool." Fiiadri laughed and looked Taarum over once more, still trying to figure it all out.

"Well either way you look super cool."

Taarum nodded. "It seems like a lot of work too. And what if you get healing magic and you don't want to heal?" When magic helped people, all the learning was probably worth it even if you didn't want to do it, but if Fiiadri used real magic to do her magic, it wouldn't be as cool. "I think you got the better deal, for sure."

He looked up, trying to discern the difference between his hair now and the memory of what it used to be. "I still haven't seen it. You wanna come find a mirror with me?"

Fiiadri smiled and nodded, through with their deep thoughts on magic and what it was. That could be thought on later....maybe. Taarum was way more important anyway. She grabbed hold of him and tugged him along, debating on going to the clinic for a mirror before deciding against it and heading home.

"Mama's little hand mirror should be in the drawer!"
Fiiadri explained, going off to find it before returning and holding out the reflective surface to her brother. "See? It's different! Not bad - just different. You're still the world's best brother even if you don't look the same."

"Oh. Yeah." He squinted at his reflection, taking in his darker hair and lighter eyes. Nothing else about him had changed—not the shape of his face or his skin or even the color of his crystals—so it didn't feel like anything to freak out over. It was more interesting than anything else.

"Mm hm." Mama and papa wouldn't have any trouble telling it was him. "Not bad." Taarum stood taller, putting his hands on his hips and smiling.

"World's best color-changing brother demands hide and seek!" He laughed. "Only if you want to."
