Hello all! I'm Argent and some of you miiiight have known me from another game involving ponies and such (gosh there are a lot of us here, eh-heh...) For those of you who don't know me... uh, hi! I suppose I am fresh meat which means I'm going to be full of worry and furious fretting until I get situated... which is probably never, but I'll do my best! I hope we can get along! /furious bowing

Oh, right! My character here is my original character cosmic horror sweetie Yg'baladoth. She has been assigned by basically a Lovecraftian version of Fate to explore beings of order and why you guys haven't been swept over by the chaos creatures already. Mostly, though, she is a proud and curious humpagrump that doesn't really make any friends but has a rather large collection of folks she has studied for too long to let them perish on other dangerous things (or themselves). She is going to be especially interested in seeing how normal creatures handle suddenly having powers they otherwise shouldn't, and is definitely more than interested in finding more about the species beings that live like this normally. So expect a wealth of curious and probably off-putting questions and she gets to know all you FASCINATING people. :)

In her own domain, Yg'baladoth is known as the Lingering Murmur and has full mastery over the power of sound. In this realm, her mastery has been greatly diminished to the point that she only has her basic Sound Manipulation. She possesses the ability to hear, create, recreate, amplify, and nullify all sound. Her stone is Cinnabar and it is located on her forehead like a third eye... which is actually where she'd normally have her third eye. So it's not like this is anything new for her. Except the gem part.

If you want to get a hold of me I'm here at [plurk.com profile] argentbast. I look forward to getting to know you all more and will see you in the game.

Always Listening...

Hey there, Cosmos people, Arc here with Honey Lemon from Big Hero 6! She's a Chemical Engineering student back at San Fransokyo Institute of Technology, and one-time superheroine! She comes from just a week or so post-movie, and has a Rose Quartz gem embedded in her left shoulder. Her first power is Super Speed, so that's going to be very fun to play out when she figures out she has it.

Additionally, she comes in with her 'Periodic Purse', which is a special purse with buttons on the side arranged in a Periodic Table, which she can input specific combinations to inject 'chem-balls' with, which the purse does on its own. She's been able to create these solutions on the fly and during battle, to produce chem-balls that can soften falls, ice over floors and even create sticky spots to trap enemies! Don't mess with her, she's got a fiery optimism and is an unstoppable force when she sets her mind to something. (And she's incredibly smart to boot.)

I should also go ahead and note here that Honey's actual name is never specified in canon, and though her actual name in the comics is 'Aiko Miyazaki', she's not Latina in the comics and is Latina in the movie, so headcanon states that her actual name is 'Leticia Bello.' She won't introduce herself with that name often, but there's a few people I already see here that she would do so out of respect/courtesy.

As always, you can find me at [plurk.com profile] magmortar, and feel free to send a friend request if you wish! Looking forward to seeing what kind of CR Honey can get! /o/

HIYA, KIDS. It's Lepo (your resident Rick Sanchez player), and here's a new character in the form of His Gnarliness, King Bowser Koopa!

Bowser hails from the acclaimed Nintendo series, Super Mario Bros. He's post-Galaxy, but by this point, generally everything in the series has happened to him. I do mean EVERYTHING. Hotel Mario is a part of Bowser's canon, and you can be dam sure I'm going to acknowledge it. His first power is the ability to summon a massive spiked mallet SO HE CAN SMASH ALL OF YOU INTO THE DIRT.

...and as you might have guessed, he will be trapped in a human body until he gains the ability to transform into his old self. I do have different sets of icons to distinguish the two, so please don't refer to him as a spiked-turtle-dragony-thingy until he goes around smash everything in the form of a spiked-turtle-dragony-thingy. Also feel free to recognize him, just don't point that he's from a video game (also, he is not-Smash canon. So he won't be recognizing the crew we've got going on.)

Anyway, as usual, feel free to add me on Plurk at [plurk.com profile] lepowned! I'll totally be looking for stuff to get this guy involved in straight away, so feel free to throw whatever at me.

Hi guys! My name is Stripe, and I am here to bring you Jade Harley from Homestuck! Her gem is Jadeite (surprising, I know) and right now she has the ability of Size Manipulation, which should hopefully be interesting. I'm using the version of her from the latest timeline, for those of you who actually know Homestuck and know all about the weird and ridiculous timeline shenanigans.

I am brand spanking new to Dreamwidth roleplaying (though not to RP in general) so you maaaay see me acting like a lost child on occasion, but I think I'm getting the hang of things!

Anyways, I have been told that plurk is the go-to social media site for DWRP, so you can find me over at [plurk.com profile] tehstripe! I'm also around on twitter and tumblr under the exact same name. 

I look forward to meeting and playing with all of you!

Greetings Gems,

There has been an ongoing issue for quite some time now regarding Cosmographia's timeline and the system of dating posts, mainly that there are many players who do not understand how the system works or just barely understand how it works enough to get by. While other DWRP games such as Court, Kyriakos, and Aather have used this system, we have numerous players saying it's very unorthodox and that they dislike it.

There have also been concerns brought up over players being unsure how in-game days relate to actual dates - for example, is Day 118 also September 12th? The answer is no, the game exists on its own separate calendar, though one that currently isn't established anywhere as we've begun to see the problems with that when players want to know what calendar day or month it is in-game.

So we are now asking for input from the playerbase regarding these things, mainly:
-Should an IC calendar be established for player reference that connects the in-game days to actual dates?
-Should the game's timeline/post dating/IC:OOC day ratio system be modified or changed altogether?

Feel free to leave a comment with your opinions as well! Thank you!!

Also, we are now looking for some helper mods to assist with certain duties, particularly when our current mods are occupied with real life or other commitments! If you'd like to offer your services as a helper mod, please contact Freya, ToraNova or Gena! Our contact information is over at the mod contact page! Thank you once again!

Do you understand the game's timeline system? Should it be changed or modified? Should an IC calendar be established?

THE MUSICAL MOTIF MEME

"Each Gem in Steven Universe possesses a certain musical motif that plays during certain parts of the show. When Gems fuse, their musical motifs merge into a completely different genre of music."

As Cosmographia is based on Steven Universe, a few people, including myself, thought it would be cool to have a meme based around the idea of the musical motifs that are present in the show! There's not a whole lot of restrictions here: link your character's theme song, any theme songs for fusions that are associated with them, or simply use this as a way to pimp out cool music from your canon!
