Who Wants To Be Radio Famous?!
Because the mods are kind (or perhaps they're feeling a bit sadistic who knows), Alastor is going to be able to broadcast this month! Meaning there's going to be a few posts going up this month with his broadcasts. (Currently shooting for every Saturday afternoon/evening but we'll see!)
But you know what a radio show needs? Content.
The Alastorcast needs you! No, not that guy! You!
Got a business you want to advertise in a unique (to Reverein) way? Alastor can do an ad read live on air!
Spooky scary noctaere stuff happening somewhere that you think people should avoid? Spread it across town to anyone listening in minutes!
You want to go live on air to explain why you're the shoe-in for Flower Queen and your top opponent is a pretender to the throne? Alastor would love for you to embarrass yourself -- I mean, would love to have you on the show!
Sign-ups for specific dates along with the cut-offs for that particular broadcast will be in the comments.
As for how this is going to work, anything where Alastor is reading off something someone sent in or just things he wants to talk about will be in the main part of the post.
Interviews will be flagged "INTERVIEW" along with the participant in the subject line which Alastor will start off by introducing his guest and their reason for coming on. If it makes you more comfortable, interview questions can be determined ahead of time. The thread itself will be considered live for everyone to hear up until a tag with the subject line "END OF INTERVIEW" in which case Alastor will wrap it up and thank the interviewee for their time. Any tags afterward that point will be considered off-air.
Looking forward to hearing from you!

April 30th (Cut-Off at April 30th at 12 AM PST)
Re: April 30th (Cut-Off at April 30th at 12 AM PST)
I know this is pretty close to the cut off, so I understand if this is too late! If not, as you saw in his journal post, Satan is looking for volunteers to test both the potency of the various poisons made from the local flora (and some amplified with magic) and their antidotes.
ICly, Satan would have drafted up essentially a research paper of his work for Alastor to review -- which I would like to handwave the actual writing up of it because my grad school days are over and I don't want to go back!! But it would have his methodology, basic outline of his current research so far, which plants/flora he used in his poisons and how he made the various antidotes. Basically, an 8-10 page handwritten research paper that he is willing to share/post publicly.
His ultimate goal is to properly test his antidotes because Mammon, who has been consuming various types and amounts of poison daily, is too sturdy. So sure, Mammon is alive and well, but that's because he's a strong demon and not because Satan's antidotes are working wonders. His antidotes are probably somewhere around 70% effective, and any lingering effects are probably going to have to be dealt with via deamotion/magic, which Satan is aware. Satan is also like 95% confident no one will actually die... probably....
Ideally, Satan would want the (first round of?) testing all done on the same day, with the participants together in case anything goes wrong -- and so that he can compare and contrast reactions to the poison and the antidote.
tl;dr Angry demon in need of sturdy humans to test dangerous poisons to save any idiot, fragile humans who get poisoned and would die otherwise.
Let me know if that works for you, if you want to move forward, or if you need anything else from me, etc etc.!
no subject
Honestly, Alastor is going to look at this thesis paper and basically be like "...I was talking about a 30-second ad read" and just whittling it down to the basics. XD At least he'll show that he read through the paper when drafting the ad.
The broadcast should be up within the next hour so Satan can tune in and potentially curse Alastor's name. XD
