This prompt is for Dark Mirror characters only!
A ballista has appeared in Mirrorspace. When arriving in the Common Room, all Dark Mirror Senshi will notice a strange new, semi-permanent mirror. Unlike the other mirrors, this one is very obviously a doorway–and it shows them where to walk.
This mirror will show them one thing: a room with a giant crossbow, made entirely of mirrorshards. They do not have to envision the room to walk to it, they merely need to look at the mirror and step through.
Mirrors of all shapes and sizes cover the walls of this room, but unique to this location–they all show strange visions of space. Every mirror is a window to the universe, each showing a different, unique view. Sometimes it is a storm in space, sometimes a colorful world, or a debris field, or bright star.
It’s easy to become distracted in this room; there are dozens of mirrors of all shapes and sizes.
The mirrorwraiths like this room too.
Uncommonly social of late, the wraiths have made themselves frequent visitors of the Common Room, and they regularly travel to visit the ballista. Close observation will reveal that they are not here just to sightsee–they have a purpose.
The wraiths are carrying energy to the ballista, and something about it says you should, too.
Though there are no instructions, it is as if Mirrorspace itself is trying to communicate with the Court. But then, it’s always looked after them, hasn’t it? Have they not been desperately searching for a way to help save Earth?
Is this not the answer?
Many mirrorshards can be found around the room, and unlike the standard shards, these appear to be made out of black glass. Wraiths can be summoned all the same, hungry and desperate to collect energy–there’s just one difference. When the shard is bursting with energy, it must be returned to this room. It must be shattered on the ballista.
As always, they need only bring Mirrorspace energy.
Mirrorspace will do the rest.

For the remainder of the event, all Dark Mirror Senshi, regardless of rank, can participate in this; while mirrorwalking, they may accidentally arrive in the Common Room or even in the same room as the ballista. Dark Mirror Senshi can only take one dark shard at a time; energy will gather more quickly as usual and wraiths seem far more agreeable when summoned from one of these shards. Sometimes two or more may come out at a time to rapidly gather energy. While wraiths are typically the main harvesters, the shard itself will gather energy and, once full, it can be broken on the ballista to charge it. At that point in time, another shard can be taken; if more than one shard is taken at once, the surplus will be returned to Mirrorspace.

OOC Information: By participating in this thread, it means that your character is familiar with the above information, as well as information that has been shared in the Database by Dark Mirror characters. You do not need to write a response to the above prompt; simply rolling in this thread means that your character participated in assisting. However, you can write an RP or solo based on it if you like! If writing anything based on the prompt, please post it in the Event subforum and not this thread.
To submit gathered energy, you will need to use Gaia’s RNG system to tally how much is contributed. Please use the following scale to determine which numbers to use in the RNG:
To submit gathered energy, you will need to use Gaia’s RNG system to tally how much is contributed. Please use the following scale to determine which numbers to use in the RNG:
- If your character is first stage : RNG 1-10
If your character is second stage : RNG 5-15
If your character is third stage : RNG 10-20
If your character is fourth stage: RNG 15-25
No bonuses can be applied towards this number, it is calculated solely on rank! A low RNG number OOCly does not correspond with low effort or success ICly, however, if players want to raise their OOC total then they can do so by doing event RPs/solos! For every event roleplay you have written for this character, you can add +5 to your total! You must write at least 500 words per character, per roleplay for them to be eligible to get this bonus. If you are playing multiple characters in a single RP, all characters can earn the bonus provided each has 500 words written for them. Event RPs do not need to be prompt based and can be any RP inspired by or related to current event happenings. When posting in the thread, please fill out the following form below:
[b]Character Name[/b] (Include a link to their Journal)
[b]Total[/b]: (Please tally up the number you roll as well as any RP based bonuses)
[b]RP Bonus[/b]: (Please link to each RP where you have written at least 500 words with this character)
[b]Total[/b]: (Please tally up the number you roll as well as any RP based bonuses)
[b]RP Bonus[/b]: (Please link to each RP where you have written at least 500 words with this character)
Please only roll once per character! You can edit your post to add more RPs, but everything should be kept in a single post per character. You can roll for any/every character you have regardless of how much you have played them during the event. Civilians and characters from other factions cannot participate.
Participation in this thread will be open until at least Sunday, April 6th so if you are interested in participating, please do so before then and make sure you update your posts with bonus RPs as soon as possible!

If you have multiple characters you want to ‘roll for’ simultaneously, you can do so but will need to roll a ten sided dice for each character. First stage characters will use this number, second stage characters will add +5 to this number, third stage characters will add +10 to this number, and fourth stage characters will add +15 to that number.
Because these values change the minimum ‘roll’ possible for second stage and higher, characters who have RNG’d values on a ‘1-9’ scale relevant to their stage, they will receive +1; players should not add this value in to their total, this is just for transparency that all second stage and higher characters will have adjusted numbers; these characters will get a +1 to their RNG, capped at the max number possible for their stage.
