Player Event: "Imbalance" Info & Plotting
Ollo, Songerein! Happy (almost) September! For the new folks coming in soon, I'm Ami or Donut! Either one works, it's fine. Got a player plot dreamscape idea cooked up, so I'm going to go ahead and unleash it upon the masses. Let's get started with the context and follow with the details:
Madhuri has been working on her dreamwalking abilities for a while, and has discovered that- if she can recite a song she'd heard via her Echo- she gains a magical girl costume of that particular opponent she had faced as well as a facsimile of their elemental powers to aid her depending on the situation.
Recently, she has been dreaming of a strange palace and a strange song... one that she feels compelled to try out and see what happens.
The problem is thus: Not only is Nald'thal, the subject of the tune, a major deity as opposed to the minor primals she'd defeated before, but they are twin gods representing a balance, keepers of the realm of both the living and the dead. How does a girl dress as two at once?
Simply put, she can't. The result is a dreamscape resembling a sprawling ancient temple lit by red-gold sunset, lined with torches of orange and blue. Crystal lanterns all through Reverein will glow and draw dreamers in (if you'd like to participate, of course).
What's the catch? Gimme the gimmick.
Dreamers brought into the dreamscape can be split into two, becoming two individuals holding half of their personality. For example, someone that has been split can have one of them bearing all their positive personality traits while the other bears all their negative. Two halves of a whole. Or, if you're nasty, one can be how they are publicly, and the other can be something akin to a shadow, of traits they aim to keep to themselves or deny.
In short, you can easily treat this as a soft Shadow event, for you Persona kids out there. The appearance of each half of your character and what personality traits reside in which is entirely up to you.
To fix the problem and restore a character in full, dreamotion is key. Positivity, acceptance or simply kicking their butt to show you care is enough to have two halves combine and become the whole person again.
This dreamscape will occur over the course of one in-game night on September 10th, when the log will go up, to facilitate lots of time to plot out or finish threads by month's end. This is a fabulous opportunity for new friends to reveal their uglier or even softer sides, or for one to face their inner demons.
Any questions? Feel free to leave them beneath the handy-dandy "Questions" toplevel within and I'll answer as quick as I can. Otherwise, feel free to use this entry to organize plots.

Hi so I very definitely go here and I have IDEAS
For those unfamiliar with Persona 5 Royal:
There's going to be a sort of blanket content warning for major P5R spoilers, self-destructive tendencies bordering on self-harm, existential despair, and probably way too much death.
Technically Persona-wielders aren't supposed to have Shadows...
But they're not supposed to have Palaces, either, nor are they supposed to have multiple 'starting' Personas, we breakin all the rules here-
Anyway, come on down, experience the horror of two Goro Akechis in one place
and recall what happens when people confront their shadows
