✘ CANON UPDATES & BOOLEAN REDEMPTIONS
ıllıllı CANON UPDATES ıllıllı Updating A Character If you would like to change your character's canon point, please fill out this form with the requested information and leave it as a comment to this post. Please note that canon updates are treated the same as applying from new canons, in that the canon point must have been "out" for at least 1 month before they can be updated. As always, please be considerate of spoilers when interacting with other players. For characters ICly, it is very similar to an in-game death experience: they will feel themselves dissolving from the Svelte world and be subjected to the alarming sensation of being deconstructed atom by atom. Characters returning to their native worlds may retain some vague impressions of the Svelte world, but not so much as it would change their actions (that is, you can't use them to make the character an AU version and branch off to a different canon path). For most, it will seem like a vague dream or a very unusual sense of deja vu. Upon re-materializing inside the simulation after 24 hours, characters will have all their memories of their previous time in Svelte in addition to their new memories. (If you require a canon reset, or wish to regress your character to a previous canon point rather than a later one, please contact the mod for approval first.) ıllıllı BOOLEAN REDEMPTIONS ıllıllı MAKING A REQUEST Players who would like their characters to either acquire an item from their world, or who wish to permanently retain a change to their character (new ability, new appearance, etc) can spend the special, very rare currency called Booleans. These are IC tokens that are distributed only through in-game events, and below is a breakdown of the costs associated with each type of redemption. Please note that these redemptions are for "extra" or "bonus" perks that players wish their characters to have. If a character requires specific resources from their worlds for their health or well-being, those items do not have to go through this process. Further, boolean redeems are not the only way certain effects or regains can be achieved — they may also appear as special plot events from time to time. SPECIAL NOTE: Characters may give their booleans to one another, however a character who disappears due to a drop, etc will not leave their otherwise ungifted booleans behind. If your character is giving their boolean(s) to someone else, please drop a quick note of it here so that my spreadsheet can be matched accordingly, thank you! This page is for submitting redeems/gains only — if you have questions about regains, including if you want your character to acquire something in-game that is not covered by the list below, please direct them first to the FAQ so other people can find the information as well, thank you!

Character Name: Cloud Strife
Item/Change Requested & Cost: 1 personal, non-magical item.
Description: The Hardy Daytona is a Shinra-manufactured concept motorcycle which closely resembles the real-life Yamaha VMax. Because it's Shinra manufactured (and Gaia doesn't use fossil fuels) it's a fairly safe bet to say it's powered via a mako energy cell fitted within the fairing and doesn't need traditional petrol / gasoline.
Voluntary?: Yes, following the card suit minievent.
Booleans Remaining: 0. sob.
no subject
Under this revised system, vehicles require 4 Booleans to bring into Svelte, so one more is needed for Cloud to get his motorcycle. Would you like to change your reward request to a different regain, or would you like to hold off until he gets one more?

Character Name: Coda Sinneslöschen
Item/Change Requested & Cost: GAIN 1 NEW ABILITY/POWER/SKILL (PERMANENT) > 3 Booleans (Note--contains two separate innate changeling abilities nerfed at time of app, per discussion on Discord)
Description: Note, both these abilities will only be used with OOC consent.
Moonborn kith blessing: Coda, as someone who was made an instrument of torture by their Keeper, has the ability to inflict mental anguish in a form that may resemble a mental breakdown on others. This may resemble a lingering bout of paranoia, depression, megalomania, even hallucinations and other psychoses. The effects last for a few weeks at a time, while Coda suffers from a weaker form of the same mental anguish for a single week. Those with psychic defenses may be resistant to this power.
Pledge sealing: One has to watch what one says around changelings; they have the ability to bind people to their promises. How it works is that if a changeling hears someone state something affirmatively ("No matter what, I'm going to win that competition!") or as an oath ("I promise I'm never going to lie to you again!"), they can call the Wyrd, the active force of fate, to witness that statement. Once the pledge is sealed, if the promise is broken, the person who made it suffers a minor misfortune chosen by the one sealing it (Coda), and they also know that the seal has been broken. Example penalties from the book include:
• One point of bashing damage (read: a minor bruise)
• A one-die penalty to all rolls for one scene
• A two-die penalty on a specific Skill for one scene
• A three-die penalty for one specific roll
• A minor supernatural effect (character’s reflection faces the wrong way, character causes milk to spoil, cats scratch or bite the character, etc.) for one scene (let's be real, this is the kind of thing I'd be doing to people most often)
When creating a seal, the changeling can also strengthen it. Doing so requires spending a Willpower point as well as a Glamour point. If the character does this, the player can levy a more stringent penalty for breaking the seal, including:
• One point of lethal damage (an actual physical wound)
• Three points of bashing damage (a significant bruise)
• A two-die penalty on all rolls for one scene
• A three-die penalty to all rolls with a specific Skill for one scene
• A five-die penalty to one specific roll
• Use of one of the changeling’s Contracts on the target, activated when they break the seal. The player rolls to activate the Contract and notes the successes; the effect applies when/if the subject breaks the seal.
A seal is broken when the subject either attempts to fulfill the promise and fails or becomes incapable of doing so. For example, someone saying “I’m going to kick his ass” would fail to fulfill this promise if he picks a fight with the other party and loses, or if the other party were to die before the fight happens. If the subject had said, “I’m going to kick his ass if he doesn’t leave my sister alone,” the subject is under no compulsion to start the fight if the other party does, in fact, stay away from the sister. If, however, the other party dates the sister and the subject makes no attempt to fight him, he breaks the seal and the consequences apply.
Voluntary?: Yes
Booleans Remaining: 0
APPROVED
Since this is a voluntary regain, the effect will be more or less immediate that Coda will have access to the "new" abilities, once they have left The Candy Store.

Character Name: Soundwave TFP
Item/Change Requested & Cost: 1 MAGICAL/CUSTOM/SPECIAL ITEM (SMALL) ➤ 3 BOOLEANS
Description: The Resonance Blaster! A small (when scaled for a Cybertronian) gun basically shoots sonic booms. It can generally knock a Cybertronian off their feet, cause disorientation, knock them out, or if aimed at someone long enough, can crack plates. For examples: a handy video of Knock Out making puns. It's never used on a human in canon, but if it can toss a Cybertronian it probably wouldn't end well? But if it needs to be non-lethal that's fine, he's not planning any murder sprees with it. Just an anti-Tailgate getting near him gun.
Voluntary?: Yes
Booleans Remaining: None!
APPROVED
Since this is a voluntary regain, you can either have the Candy Store proprietor NPC give Soundwave the Blaster, or tell him where it can be located somewhere in the city.

❗ canon update
Contact:
Character Name: Wanda Maximoff
Current canon point: Avengers: Endgame
New canon point: WandaVision finale (ep. 9)
Any notable changes (physical/abilities/etc?) The short, vague-as-possible answer is yes, her powers have shown to be doing some new things but are not yet anywhere NEAR fully developed to their OP potential; I'm obviously not going to have said powers ever be breaking the game or ever becoming OP as fuq. Canon also made some of my long-standing, more minor headcanons into canon, so hell yeah. 😎
(For the sake of not tl;dr-ing every show spoiler all over this page, I'm just going to link the MCU wiki and wikipedia articles with series details and episode descriptions.)
REQUEST
If you want to amend your application with a new section or new comment to the post and then comment here with the link, that would be great.

However I've done my best to parse them here!
1. Chaos Magic Manipulation: This fits with the character's existing permissions/nerfs, all good.
2. Reality Manipulation: As reality warping falls under one of the two main power nerfs for the game, this would not be accessible as laid out in the above comment within the game.
3. Conjuration: This ability fits with the character's existing permissions/nerfs, although for game breakage avoidance, I'd limit the scale of the conjurations to say... house sized. Use good judgment!
4. Time Manipulation: Will need to be nerfed from the scale as presented in the above comment, and limited to Wanda's person or her vicinity of 1 block, and will require permission from the other player(s) if it will also impact their characters.
5. Teleportation: This ability is fine, it is auto-nerfed by the game rules to being limited within Svelte's borders.
6. Transmutation: This ability is fine; player permission required if it is on someone else's character.
7. Electricity Manipulation: This ability fits with the character's existing permissions/nerfs, and limited to the scale of 1 city block of impact at a time. (Please note this will not affect the Svelte framework, ie; Wanda will not be able to make the simulation itself lose power, etc.)
8. Weather Manipulation: Same as above.
9. Fire Manipulation: Same as above.
10. Protection Spell: This ability fits with the character's existing permissions/nerfs, all good.
11. Energy Absorption: This ability fits with the character's existing permissions/nerfs, requires player permission when affecting other characters.
12. This ability fits with the character's existing permissions/nerfs, all good.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
canon update
Contact:
Character Name: Katsuki Bakugou
Current canon point: Post Chapter 293
New canon point: Canon updating for a power he had at
Any notable changes (physical/abilities/etc?) Katsuki had another power at his previous game
that I am an idiot and forgot to add. The description of the power is as follows:Explodo Heals
Katsuki can use his own stamina and healing ability to heal others injuries, both external and internal. He does this by physical contact, putting his hands on the other person. The contact does not have to be on the wound and it can be as simple as putting his hands on their shoulders. How much he is able to heal depends on the scope and severity of the injury, e.g.: if someone is on the brink of death, he might be able to stabilize them to buy them a little more time, but he isn't going to be able to heal them back to 100%. But if someone has a nasty looking cut, he'd be able to heal that completely.
WEAKNESS:
Other than the limitations, the power relies on his own stamina and healing ability both through the nanites and his body's natural abilities. Depending on how much he has healed, Katsuki may heal more slowly or not at all for a period of time. Also, because this power uses his stamina, his ability to use his explosions may become limited as well. If he pushes himself too far, he might pass out, which could be dangerous.
I hope I did this correctly thank you Li for your time!

CANON UPDATE
Contact:
Character Name: Astral
Current canon point: Episode 25
New canon point: Staying more or less the same, this is treated as a canon update per discussion w/ modchan.
Any notable changes (physical/abilities/etc?) The addition of Astral's other personality, NO. 96.
PERSONALITY: Where Astral appears emotionless; 96 appears emotionally volatile. Thanks to 96's brief time spent with a human host before reintegrating with Astral, he understands emotions far better than him. His joy is unhinged while hatred and anger are often destructive. Fear doesn't bewilder him, it's a weakness (which he can feel just as strongly as Astral). Hope? It has its use, though he finds it incredibly fragile. 96 is at his most dangerous when he does appear as eerily calm as Astral.
96's ego is massive. He sees himself as the strongest Number, stronger than Astral (the Original, NO. 99), which is why he tries so hard take over Astral's body. He doesn't take anyone seriously or bother to perceive them as a threat. Why should he when he's clearly superior in every way? This makes him incredibly easy to fool.
In many ways, he's the same as Astral: just as vindictive and curious. He wants to know more about the world around him, though it's twisted through the lens of an egotistical teenager who loves violence. god does he love violence
ABILITIES:
Limited Shapeshifting - Astral and 96 can manipulate their form to a limited degree, and are able to elongate limbs and sprout tentacles at will. Astral doesn't use this to the degree or control of NO. 96.
PHYSICAL: NO. 96, when in control of Astral's body, appears inky black with red markings in the shape of a heart on his face.

Character Name: Gil Ryanson
Current canon point: Changeling: The Lost
New canon point: 1E to 2E
Any notable changes (physical/abilities/etc?) As discussed briefly on Discord I'll be updating him from 1e to 2e of Changeling the Lost; narratively/personality wise absolutely nothing changes, it's all mechanical notes. A full sheet for his updated skills can be found here, but here's a summary of his changes from his app.
I'm sorry for how many extra skills he's getting.
SO! From the top:
Ogre Blessing/Curse
Blessing and Curse have been updated, now very different functions. Blessing has new combat function (temporarily exhaust opponents will to fight), is optional on Gil's part and can be solved with one-on-one discussion.
Gristlegrinder Blessing
Extra addition: Gil is now able to swallow anyone a size category smaller than him (Gil, as an adult human, is size 5). Opt-in only, will also be discussed with thread partner/s ahead of time if it looks likely, as Gil will not often use this.
Autumn Mantle
Same strength and aesthetic (sound of dry leaves underfoot), but allows extra insight into True Fae or Faerie investigations; this applies to investigating other Changelings. (Can also regain Glamour by facing his fears to investigate danger, but that's mostly narrative)
Merits
2e Changelings start with 10 dots, and some old ones are phased out. All Merits are listed on the sheet above, and (apart from his Mantle) are entirely mundane. The use of Headbutt would be discussed with thread partners (but theoretically he can totally give the Cybertronians a concussion now). Furthermore he'll no longer have the Token The Truth Shall Make Ye Fret, as it's technically a merit and being replaced.
Contracts
Several contracts got dummied out or edited, and 2e Changelings start with a flat 6 instead of point buying, so Gil has 6 contracts now. Witches' Intuition continues to be opt-in, others don't require permissions as the magical aspects only affect Gil; Shared Burden is a healing spell.
Hedgewall creates a hedge-maze that may cause significant environmental damage in up to a 15m radius circle (up to 4 stories high) at Gil's discretion; the actual shape can be anything he wants. This lasts until the next sundown, and may damage to anyone that tries to climb or attack it without appropriate protection. I don't know if you'll need warnings or anything if this is done in a location where it can cause structural damage to things, but I'm listing it fully for easier access for you.
Other Changeling Abilities
Gil is now able to create spontaneous pledges and oaths using Wyrd now, as described by Coda during their regain.
While I believe this has been discussed as an acceptable ability, I'm also formally adding that he knows how to dreamwalk now, though he is not practiced with it at all.
In 2e as well, Changelings can forcibly harvest all of a target's Glamour, a process known as reaping that induces symptoms similar to lethargy, exhaustion or depression. This would be an opt-in only ability, and a rarely used one at that.
Gil will also be rather disoriented immediately following this update, and won't have immediate access to any skills that require activation, such as his Contracts and Blessings, as he adjusts to the deja vu weirdness of this update.

Character Name: Nostradamus
Item/Change Requested & Cost: Debating whether this counts as a power/skill or a permanent physical change. Somewhere in there, both cost the same at 3 Booleans.
Description: Nostradamus grows an incredibly awkward set of functional vulture wings and can fly. His wingspan is about eight feet across. He can fold his wings close to his back to look like a dark feathered cloak, but holding them stiff like that is uncomfortable for long periods of time.

Item/Change Requested & Cost: [ D ] 1 MAGICAL/CUSTOM/SPECIAL ITEM (SMALL): Noiz's familiar that he had in Prismatica
Description: Basically it's a magical familiar whose appearance and abilities is determined by the character's Moonblessing. Noiz was an Iris. As such, his familiar looked like a rabbit with antlers. Here is an artistic rendition of Venison the deerabbit. He's a cuddly bun who can zap if need be but is mostly too friendly and affectionate for his own good.
Voluntary?: Yes, but he won't until end of the month once fires die down.
Booleans Remaining: Zero. The most recent one gave me just enough to redeem.

It's compacted into a disk that looks like some sort of shield when not in use, but when it's activated it's basically a large armored suit!

Just one last thing please... we know when it's deactivated the disk is still hella large and Silje is just 5ft hahaha so is it okay that it collapses to the size of a travel backpack so she can carry it around? Or is it mysteriously light enough for her to lift but not by non-authorized users? (I was almost tempted by the phase shifter because it's more portable, though it's not quite what I had in mind for her lmao.)
If not, it's okay, I'll make do haha thanks in advance!

Character Name: Orpheus
Item/Change Requested & Cost: Gain 1 new power (permanent), 3 booleans
Description: As per the Broadway edition of the show, Orpheus' music can now literally bring the world into tune with him. As he is very nature-aligned (especially with the springtime), this applies most powerfully to nature-y bunk. He can do stuff like make the rocks and stones weep, make the trees lay down their fruits for him, make the birds give their feathers, make the river give its gold. Walls of stone and iron can open to grant him passage. He can make the earth flourish. Generally, he can have the world do as he pleads it. And also he can Apparently summon plants and flowers with one specific melody of his, which is very conveniently timed.
When it comes to complex technology, his song can make things do their intended function regardless of any button-pushing or even electrical charge: a toaster will toast, a door will open, an oven will cook. Buildings can move their elevators and open and close doors to show him the way through it. He cannot make them do anything beyond their physical capabilities, though--he's not gonna be able to make the basic printer machine send faxes, or make the door come off its hinges.
Voluntary?: Nope
Booleans Remaining: 0 :(
