Cylus: 30 Trials

Natural Phenomena

Image
  • Throughout Cylus, the whole of Scalvoris is in dusk-like darkness, which is constant throughout the trial. People tend to stay indoors / avoid parks and public spaces etc. Open
  • Throughout this season, Rainbow Sand continues to pop up in places where its not common. Open
  • There continues to be a significant increase in the nocturnal animals spotted throughout the season, and it's now become an issue in towns. What's up with that?Open

Weather

Image
Long cold days leave Scalvoris in a constant state of near darkness.
Living outdoors during this season is close to impossible without being very prepared due to the icy temperatures, and flora and fauna suffer during this time.
Throughout this season everywhere is covered in a blanket of snow and some areas are completely cut off from the rest of the island.
Scalvoris plunges into almost-night for the season, until the light of Ashan touches it once more.
By the middle of this season, drifts of snow several feet deep are a common sight, but obviously, some places are impacted more than others.

Skies

Image
  • It is worth remembering that during this season there are scientists scampering all over Scalvoris. The clear night sky is a wonder to them. They don't get out much, and so they're very happy. Open
  • Between the 22nd - 23rd, there are shooting stars in the night sky. They make for wonderful scenes and are visible to the naked eye. Open
  • The star-turtle of Saoire is seen moving across the sky by day and night. It becomes an almost common sight and is known to wave to children. Open
  • In the darkness of Cylus there is spotted a faint red glow in the sky. The reason for it is not found. Open: PM Scalv mod with plotnotes / ideas - or for a plot.

Trending

Image
The following trends occur on Scalvoris throughout this season:
  • Pirates! It's all the rage. Everything leather, and of course, the eye patches! The more ridiculous, the better.
  • Snow-themed accessories! The Smooglenuff 'Winter Wonderland' event was a roaring success, and word has it that snow-themed jewelry, hair accessories, and wardrobe enhancements are the 'in' thing.
  • 'The Forged' action figures! It's been a few seasons since the Forging. Action figures of various participants are now widely available, as well as the Induks. Get yours today!
  • Dragons! It's a dragon renaissance, and everyone wants to be a part of it. You can find dragons on most anything these trials...

Ashan: 123 Trials

Natural Phenomena

Image
  • With Ashan's first dawn, light returns to the island. This brings with it an enormous sense of relief.
  • Throughout the season, there are reports of a number of rockfalls in the Scalvoris mountains. They seem to be centred on The Vault and last throughout the season. Will anyone investigate this? PM Scalv Mod - please note the Vault is a moderated environment.
  • The seas around Watch behave unusually throughout this season. From boiling to turning a range of colors, to teeming with fish. Something weird is going on Open to investigate / go see. Note the moderation status of Watch, though, if you want to find out more.
  • And it seems that the sheep, goats, and other animals with wool and fur are making an annual thing of their rainbow coats. Those with coats, this season, find that if the coat is shorn, then it is back in full growth in 3 trials. After initial excitement by the knitters and crochet enthusiasts, some fights break out in attempt sheep-stealing.

Weather

Image
The beginning of Ashan is rigidly cold on Scalvoris, starting with a cold period which lasts for a quarter of the season before the temperature finally heats up enough to begin sowing crops for the arc. The remainder of Ashan is spring weather. Barren trees slowly sprout buds of leaves and flowers and those who work the land plant in preparation once again. The 123 trials of Ashan are cold but moderate weather. As the season progresses, rain clouds become a common thing and Scalvoris experiences Ashan Storms, a common occurrence especially at the height of the season. Eventually, the storms pass and the temperature begins to heat up. As the season closes, the temperature rises, ushering in stronger storms and much hotter weather.

Skies

Image
  • There are a number of meteor showers which land in the waters around Scalvoris - out to sea quite a way. But still. Could be investigated? Open
  • There are continued reported sightings of what seem to be boats in the skies above Sweetwine. Like. Flying boats. But, the people who report them were biqaj, so they're probably lying, right? Open
  • Throughout the season, birds and insects are much more common than usual - more and more of them are seen. Open

Trending

Image
  • Buttons! Buttons are all the rage. The more buttons on your clothing, the better! They don't even need to button anything!
  • Imbedded Braids - Weaving things into hair braids is very en vouge. Delicate chains, jewels, ribbons, charms - anything goes!
  • Rainbow Woolens - Items made from rainbow wool, no matter what - from scarves to socks, they're the must-have items!!
