Good day, all.

As ever, we face all manner of changes day to day. Meetings and partings, new lessons learned...

[He trails off briefly.]

I would like to play music with others here sometime. One final hurrah for my old instrument. Even if our tastes and styles differ, it's something I'd like anyway. Whether you sing, play drums, or something else, I would like the chance to share that with others.

In person is ideal, but I am flexible. I know we all have things to be doing; this in itself, I suppose, is a selfish request of mine.

Thank you.

[ The video opens up on Della, who waves a little awkwardly. ]

Hey, guys! Hope everyone's doing okay after the whole... ink tentacle disaster... thing. That was. A lot. And, uh, well, during that, I kind of lost my leg. And by kind of I mean definitely.

[ She moves the device down - she's sitting down on a couch, and shows her one normal leg, and her other leg that ends at a stump above the knee. She then realizes how she made that sound, and swiftly pulls the camera back to her face. ]

NOT A FLESH LEG! I forgot not everyone knows about that... Oops. A-hem.

I had a metal prosthetic leg made out of rocket-ship parts and Oxy-chew. If possible, I'd love to have it back, so if anyone goes deep-sea diving and happens to come across it, I'd owe you forever and a half. I'm kind of attached to it... well, not literally at the moment. It's sentimental.

But I'm not the type to sit back and wait stuff out, so! More importantly! I'm here asking for anyone who knows where I can get another leg? Any special shops or such that specialize in such a thing? I'm not asking for anything fancy - so long as I can move around, I'm happy.

So, thanks in advance for anyone who can help me out! Hope you guys have an awesome day! Della Duck, over and out!

MANTA BOARD: FEBRUARY 2026


The MANTA Board is posted every month, but the quests are on a "2 month cycle." This means quests can last for two months with possible updates or new additions in the second month before it completely refreshes for the next cycle. Players can do older quests so long as they did not have some kind of resolution or time limit on them.

For this month's board update, some quests have been updated to reflect progress from last month, with some carrying over as is.

Quests are separated into five categories and all have flat point values: General (4pts), Corsair (4pts), Paladin (4pts), Bounties (6pts), and Specials (12pts). Crew quests are listed under "Specials" and are worth the same amount of points (12pts). Although these quests are intended for established crews, non-members are allowed to assist if the crew invites them. However, non-members would only receive 6pts. Similarly, characters helping opposing armada quests will only be rewarded 2pts for participation unless specified otherwise. Special quests won't always be available so it may appear blank at times. These can range from group quests such as for special ship upgrades or island related quests, or they could be special event quests. All quest points can be used for the Rewards Shop.

If you wish to submit a quest, comment in the appropriate field during Activity Check with the quest written and we'll add it to the next month! Crews are also still allowed to make their own quests without our approval, but if uncertain players can comment here about them.

If you have any questions regarding any current quest, comment to this entry.

SAIL WITH ME: FEBRUARY 2026


An abbreviated version of our CR Workship! Same concept, just a lot smaller. If you have multiple characters, make an individual toplevel for yourself with your player info and comment to it with each character separately.

To help coordinate specific plots for players, we have a few designated toplevels that can be used to highlight particular plots, scenarios, etc. These can be useful for players who may not want to write a full comment but have ideas. Players who do write full CR comments can still use these toplevels and link their comment if you have your ideas in there instead.

  • Crew Recruitment. Players can make OOC ad posts for others to join, looking to join, or make a crew. This is all for OOC coordination, so you'll have to figure out how it works ICly.
  • Event Plotting. If there is something specific that you'd like to do or there is a prompt that you're interested in that may require more coordination, this is the place to try and hash it out! This is not for general plotting, such as "I will be doing A, B, and C;" please save those for general meme comments! Here is recap of the event notes from the Captain's Log for easy reference. This month we have our Ya Relaeh event that doubles as our TDM.

    Current Event Notes Recap:

    • Desert oasis resort town with healing waters
    • Coliseum duels
    • Desert adventure and exploration to find cool lore things, relics, places, people, things
    • Who is Relaeh

  • Side Plotting. This is for any personal plots or MANTA Board quests that require more coordination, perhaps to bring about a resolution or make an important discovery of some kind. Like with the Event toplevel, this is NOT for generic plotting that would fit a general meme comment.



PLAYER INFO

Player:
Contact: Preferred means of contact


CHARACTER INFO

Character: Character
Canon: Include canon point
Armada: Paladin or Corsair

About: Briefly talk about the character. Can include background info or just stick with personality traits—whatever will be most useful to help other players learn about them! You can include a link to any character profile sheets or entries you might have, too.


PLANS

General: Any ideas or plans you'd like to do with your character? This could be short term or long term.
MANTA Board: Any plans for the MANTA Board?
Event: Any plans for the event? Topleveling? Tagging out? Specific prompts that caught your interest?

Etc.: Anything else or, you know, the usual memes. NOTE: we have an image code for players to use as it will fix the width of the image to 400px. This is so large images don't take up entire pages. If your image is smaller than that you can remove the code, otherwise please use the code.

ACTIVITY CHECK: JANUARY 2026


Ahoy, mateys! Here be the monthly Activity Check!

In the Extra Notes section, please note the following, as well as anything else worth noting. In the Extra Notes section, please note the following, as well as anything else worth noting. Please include brief notes on how the situation was handled (or, in the case of a thread not being complete, how it has been handled so far and/or how you expect it to conclude if possible).

  • Reports on the Ainomiad Domain expedition (it is fine if these threads are not complete, we'd just like to know where things are at, any discoveries, etc.)
  • Any notable effects left after the Sea Witch of the Abyss player plot
  • Reports/findings about the haunted estate
  • Discoveries about the walrus cursed island
  • How many fires were ignited in Nogard's skull
  • Any developments about the Honse bounty


Please check our Activity Check guidelines on our Game Info page for complete details, but here is the quick list of what you need to know:

» Only threads dated from January 1st through January 31st count towards the month's activity. (With the exception of certain backdated threads, read the linked AC guidelines for more details.)

» Activity requires one thread of at least 5 comments. The comment count is from your character.

» Any thread counts, including those made within your own entries and subthreads within your own toplevels. Individual entry posts do not count, only the threads within the posts. TDM threads with non-game characters will count.

» Continuation threads are considered as part of the previous thread so they count as one thread not two. For the sake of ease, we would like the two threads linked together.

» You are exempt from any checks for hiatuses that last for over 21 days. Anything less and you'll still need to submit your AC unless there are other circumstances.

» Because we are a capped game, there is no strike system. If you do not make the AC requirements, you will be cut.

» Bonus AC points: All extra non-quest threads not used for AC will be worth 2 extra points that can be used for reward redemption. Please check our Rewards page for more details.


There will be no warnings. All submissions are due Saturday, January 31st 11:59PM US Eastern.

EXTRA FIELDS: This is not required and completely optional, but included in the submission form are two optional fields: Extra and MANTA Board Posting.

For the Extra field, this is just a space for players to note anything that occurred in their threads that they think might be fun for us to know. So if something particularly interesting happened (for example: discovering a new creature or location, an old artifact, or perhaps a character has stolen something), we highly encourage players to jot them down! Who knows, we may even find a use for it… In addition, we may ask players to submit certain activity related to an event.

You may also submit MANTA board requests to be included in the upcoming board. We will try to add them immediately, otherwise we'll save them for the next Board or a time we deem fitting. If you don't have one in mind at the time of AC, you can post it later to the upcoming Captain's Log announcement.



If you have any questions, ask them here.


FORM: Fill out the following form and comment directly to this post. If you have multiple characters, please put them in one comment.

Warnings: Various images of home destruction. Will update if anything comes up.


[ The image is fuzzy at first. Grumbling from a female voice can be heard-- finally, the image evens out and clears up, revealing none other than an adorable pink hedgehog. She plasters a big smile on her face, even if it is definitely a little nervous. ]

Hi everyone! Quick question, but is anyone good with repairs? Specifically the kind that have to do with maybe sort of repairing a biiiiig portion of a roof? Because, due to a series of extremely unfortunate events a month ago, I may or may not have made a tiny error while I was cooking, and... well. I accidentally got a skylight I didn't want and uh, a few walls knocked out.

[ The view shifts away from Amy as she slowly pans around the damage. It's been cleaned up, and there's tarp where the roof is no longer present. The whole kitchen leading into the living room is definitely heavily damaged though. It may or may not be obvious this wasn't a kitchen mistake. Amy will never tell the truth, though. The view flips back to her face again. ]

If anyone can help, I'd be grateful, and so would my friends! I'll pay you of course. Please let me know!

Warnings: N/a; will adjust if necessary

[There's a picture of six moogles standing outside of a little moogle-sized cottage on Hero's Rest. Five of the moogles are regular sized moogles, though one has a pompom that is at a rather concerning angle. In front is a smaller moogle which has been circled in red.]

We got attacked by those tentacles on the island and can't find one of our moogles in the aftermath. His name is Mogwyn and I'm kinda worried about him. Has anyone seen him?
