You awaken amidst the darkness with only a faint light to greet you. Your body is hemmed in by shards of crystals, gently sparkling and possibly pricking your skin. The surrounding landscape is dyed in the pinks and purples of the dusk filled with crystals protruding from the ground, some as large as a skyscraper. Even the few shy moon creatures you find in the wild have strange crystal growths on their hides. This is far from home— perhaps a dream? You pinch your skin and slap your cheeks, yet nothing seems to do the trick. Searching for answers yields nothing but an endless expanse of purple dust as far as the eye can see. You have four options: one, panic; two, soil yourself; three, admire it all then soil yourself; or four, go into survival mode. Eventually, you’ll realize that you’re not alone.


Keep all Hands and Feet inside the Burning Vehicle at all Times
Iris Moon, Government Center (Arrival) and Outer Space | top

After a day or two of living off the crystal wilderness, a group of people find you worse for wear. They are the gallant Moon Knights from the planet of Prismatica. After the strange phenomenon during the past months when scientists observed the sudden appearance of rainbow crystals in the sky, the government has been feverishly combing through the moon for more Moonblessed to be rescued. You’ll eventually be brought into Iris’s moon government center.

You all may have your usual inquiries — Where are we? Who are you? What's going on? Why did I mix tequila with xanax last night? — and the Prismals are almost too eager to answer. They tell you about their world and about the first appearance of the Moonblessed as the medical staff give you an examination to make sure you’re not carrying any viruses or biological hazards. If you react violently, you may be restrained and nerfed with a specialized neurotransmitting gun that releases a numbing agent through the top of your spine. Once the examinations are over, you’re informed that you will be provided accommodations on their planet during your stay.

While waiting for transport to be prepared, you may freely roam around the government center. Eventually you’re called back from exploring, escorted to the docks, and led onto a large transport vessel that makes frequent trips back and forth between the moons and the planet. Faces onboard vary from both old and new Moonblessed as well as Prismal locals. The next destination: Prismatica.

A. After settling into the ship and selecting the current in-flight movie, Back Door Slugs 9, you and those around you may eventually feel a bit of turbulence during the movie’s highly anticipated climax. Did anyone notice it, or is everyone too focused on the hot characters?

At first, it’s a small jitter that’s easy to miss or brush off. But as the transport vessel travels on, the shaking progressively escalates to erratic tremors strong enough to cause severe nausea. A minute later, a voice over the speaker announces the ship will have to make an emergency landing, citing technical difficulties.

Sparks can be seen overhead as more ship parts malfunction. This is a good time to hold your neighbor’s hand, say your last goodbyes, and apologize for that horrible thing you did in the sixth grade. Grip your seat with the might of every god you can think of.

B. Another minute later, a follow-up announcement states that external entities have breached the transport vessel. Everyone is warned to be careful and watch out for each other. Small fires will have to be put out before they worsen with either magic or emergency equipment onboard such as extinguishers. In-flight robotic attendants will be scuttling around to perform immediate repairs.

Eventually, an entire power panel bursts, and prismatic jellyfish unnaturally spill out. The jellyfish will try to latch and suction onto any technological devices close by such as the television screens on the seats or communicators and will show preference to Iris Moonblessed over the rest. Be ready to help and pull numerous jellyfish off both the faces of Moonblessed and Prismals!

Planet Prismatica, Outer Lunatia | top

The emergency landing successfully completes and the transport vessel will safely land on top of a gorgeous lake filled with tiny glaciers floating by. When reached out and touched, you’ll find out that the “glaciers” are surprisingly cool crystals and not ice.

The ship will be left hovering idly on the water surface while passengers are ferried to solid ground using portable emergency boats. However, civilization is still a distance away.

A. You’ve probably heard of flying sharks from a veteran Moonblessed. But how about sea lions? These aquatic lions are born with scaly skin and gills outside of their crystallized manes. Unfortunately, they haven’t tasted fresh meat in quite some time. If there are any injured onboard or near your boat, the chances of the sea lions detecting people will be higher as they are drawn to the scent of blood. Growling hungrily, they will be quick to latch onto the boats, biting the edges, and trying to knock everyone overboard for dinner.

After surviving through so far, the Prismals guide everyone to a nearby encampment run by humanoid rabbits. They are tall, built, and have a habit of mentioning their virility an awkward amount of times. They are also generous and will share their game meat and fresh crops while allowing everyone to rest for the night at the only inn in their village.

B. There is no running water all the way out here, so if anyone wants a bath, they’ll have to do it traditionally. The village protects a natural spring, which is a good place to bathe away the sea water. Around the spring, the rabbit folk’s friends — little scintilla chinchillas — will shock away any predators that dare to approach their sanctuary! Be at ease and feel free to offer your friends shampoo massages.

The next day, the rabbits can be seen hacking away at some of the wilder-looking plants for an easier pathway. If you wake up early enough, you can ask some of them for a tour of the beautiful greenery. They mention that it’s thanks to the Moonblessed that their crops have been doing so well lately — the result of all the chroma influx. The rest of the journey to the city will be smooth sailing.





It’s Free Real-Estate
Level 2, City of Lunatia | top

Welcome to Prismatica’s hub, Lunatia, the city of your dreams! A bustling metropolis lush with bright lights, vibrant colors, luxuriant plant life, and all the conveniences of technology absent from your own world… It seems like paradise to all the uninitiated. After a quick tour of the city, new arrivals can find themselves getting cozy in their new homes.

A. Find new roommates and say hello to your neighbors! City officials will give you directions to the designated districts across Level 2 and instruct you to pick out a unit. Each apartment complex has a different aesthetic, some may look cozy, some stylish, and some bizarre. The free accommodations have a basic living space that can only fit two or three people at most in one unit.

Starter Chromaspace furnishings are provided which can be controlled with the touch of a built-in panel. Examples are color-changing curtains, transforming sofa beds, cabinets turning into tables, etc. Customizing your apartment or moving out will have to wait until you earn more chroma. Until then, why don’t you check out your new neighborhood or explore the city levels? Maybe your new roommates or neighbors can give you a “hand” with allowance for dinner.

B. A new high-end boutique, Prissy Polyp, has opened in Level 2. As compensation for what happened, both Moonblessed and Prismals that were affected in yesterday’s flight will receive 50% off their total purchase. Those unaffected will receive 30% discount coupons as a promotional gift. All are encouraged to visit with their friends or special someone, try on some things together, enjoy each other in the fitting rooms, and deal with the loud, ear-blistering background pop music.

Their clothing collections are characterized by bright iridescent designs, some features such as design patterns may glow ethereally in the dark. One of their signature dresses features a one piece (also available on their trench coats) that can amplify the appearance of one’s decolletage, gluteal muscles, and/or bulge with the press of a neon button. Another item among their collection is the maiden sweater: a sleek, backless sweater that shocks those who attempt unwanted touches. Others include skin-tight leggings (also available on their shorts or pants) which produce pleasant and relaxing vibrations on all lower extremities and fashionable polyp-shaped hats for all kinds of people. It’s a huge shop, you never know what else to find in there.

jellyfish

[As soon as she saw the burning, Xion went running. She hadn't even worn her Organization coat once since she arrived in Prisma, but for something like this... the Heartless might be involved, right?

So when a short, black-haired girl seems to just fall out of the sky, wielding a... giant key like it's a sword? And starts swatting away the jellyfish with it.]


Keep making your walls, I'll hold them off for you!

[She's seen stranger weapons than a sword that looks like a key. The girl isn't using a bus stop sign or a toy bow, so who the hell is Mitsuru to judge her.

Besides, it seems to be working, a bit like Iori and his great swords.]


Jump in three.... two... one....

[Mitsuru aims at the ground where the girl is standing around the jellyfish and lets loose with a Mabufudyne spell. Large, sharp stalagmites of pure ice pop up, skewering multiple of the flailing creatures with a relative ease.]

Keep moving!

[She can cast that particular spell about ten more times, but the wall is harder and takes more out of her.]

[personal profile] xioff 2019-09-19 07:51 am (UTC)(link)
[When Mitsuru Kirijo tells you to jump, the correct answer is 'how high'. But Xion doesn't know her yet, so instead, she just listens, and jumps. She nods, watching this, and ends up... sliding down one of the icicles, sticking to it like she's skating, before landing down beside Mitsuru.

She points her key.]


Freeze!

[A Blizzaga fires out of the end of her key, launching at some more of the fish, leaving a trail of ice behind it to hopefully freeze any jellyfish that touch it.]

Your magic's amazing! I have an idea, can you make one really, really big spike?
iceandwhips: (pic#10034046)

[personal profile] iceandwhips 2019-09-19 03:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[While it's true that the right answer is to do it and do it quickly, Mitsuru doesn't just bark out orders for no reason. Of course, she expects to be listened to, because common sense reasons should trump pride.

Even if she knows that sometimes it doesn't.

She's impressed at how the girl moves and then is ready to attack with spells of her own. If only she could recruit her to the Shadow Operatives. But then she's being asked a question that she hadn't counted on.]


Certainly, that would be relatively easy. It requires less energy for that one. But why?
xioff: (pic#13197190)

[personal profile] xioff 2019-09-19 03:56 pm (UTC)(link)
If you do, I can hit it with Thunder!

[She seems to think that would be self-explanatory... Electrocute the spike to take out every jellyfish in proximity to it. Ice is just water, and water conducts it, right?]
iceandwhips: (pic#10034176)

[personal profile] iceandwhips 2019-09-19 04:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[Mitsuru starts and then lets out a soft laugh.]

Of course. Just stay back.

[She whips out her Evoker, aims it at her head and lets out a massive spike of ice in the middle of the creatures that are attempting to get closer to where they stand.]

You're up!
xioff: (pic#13197206)

[personal profile] xioff 2019-09-19 05:00 pm (UTC)(link)
What are you-

[Oh.

For a moment, she looks absolutely terrified at the gun to her head, but.... She stops when she realizes Mitsuru's okay. Still, she definitely looks shaken by that.]


Strike!

[She lifts her Keyblade skyward and a bolt of lightning drops, slamming into the ice and arcing around it, an electrified spire that fries any of the jellyfish that get too close.

But then she's turning around to look at Mitsuru.]


Are you all right?!
iceandwhips: (pic#10034185)

[personal profile] iceandwhips 2019-09-20 02:19 am (UTC)(link)
[She's not at all worried about her Evoker or even a bit shaken by the girl's reaction. It's happened before. At least this time she doesn't have to deal with fighting the person doing the asking on top of everything.

The jellyfish all hit the ground, smoking oddly as the ice melts and steams into water vapor.]


I'm fine. No one's hit me.
xioff: (It all seems to melt)

[personal profile] xioff 2019-09-20 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, but- What about the gun?!

[Xion is literally roommates with Minako, and learned about Personas from Souji, and she's still never seen that before.]

Is that- Do you need that for your, thing? That was a Persona, right? I heard about those!
