Board RPs (and things like the Continuity Council) are as canon as you want them to be for your own spinoff. For example, I consider the Continuity Council canon, but this is not the case with most of the RPs I participated in.
"Right over here," Kitty directed, leading some mini-Aragogs to an empty part of the Board. "Yep, there. Just set it up, don't mind me. I have some narration to do." She turned to the Fourth Wall, grinning wildly as the minis began to erect a large poster.
"Right! I bet you're wondering what this is all about! Well, as you know, Easter is coming up soon. In fact, Easter Sunday is, I believe, the 20th." She rubbed her hands together. "This easter, we shall have a Ball! A literal one, in fact! Everyone is invited! Boarders, Agents, small dangeous animals, random plot bunnies," she listed quickly. "There will be fun! There will be food! There will be party crashers! There will be filking! And," she added. "Since I think they're awesome, probably a llama or two."
A mini ran up to Kitty and nudged her. She glanced down at it, and looked up at a fabulously urple poster, stretching up high, and covering a fair amount of the Board.
"Great!" chered the cat-girl. "Everything should be on that poster, if you have questions." She began to run off to another thread, but paused briefly. "Someone should really call in a carpender. The Fourth Wall is getting awfully damaged."
And with that, she swiftly exited the area.
The PPC Easter Ball
All Boarders, Agents, States of Mind welcome,
No Sues or Cute Animal Friends permitted,
Always expect the Spanish Inquisition!
Please bring,
A spork of your choice,
Some sort of Easter item,
Chocolate will be served.
Filking welcome!
On the Board,
Easter Sunday.
LOOK FOR TE THREAD.
Oh yeah. Beware the Llamas.
I will bring jellybeans and a plush bunny named Igloo. (Or a Fluffy Mint Bunny if I can get my hands on one.) Are agents-to-be invited? I don't have permission yet, but I have a character all thought out, so...
Kitty ran quickly back onto the Board, yelling frantically.
"Wait! Wait! Okay...wait. Thank you."
She paused to catch her breath. "Okay. Great. Here's the additional message. I need someone to chronicle what happens at the Ball. You know, like the snow fight was written down a while ago? Yeah. One person will do."
She ran to the poster, and pasted a strip of paper over the bottom of it saying just that.
"Since it's mostly RP-based, this should be easier than usual. Just, the first one to volunteer, okay? Thanks.
"Also, you might want to think about dancing partners or dates for the ball. I promise I might not tease you relentlessly about it."
She ran directly off the Board, then ran right back.
"But really, people, get that carpenter in. The Fourth Wall is cracking to pieces."
And with that, she exited to prepare for the Ball.
I've got multiple sets of characters that I'm considering involving in the upcoming Easter Special, and if it's going to be fully canon, I might choose different ones than I would otherwise.
Also, the opening post for this thread mentions that Kitty Eden is a catgirl. Is this a retroactive change, like her age-up, or was it something you'd had in mind since the beginning? Your Permission request implied that she was human. Is she only a catgirl in the Easter Special capacity, if this RP is not to be considered canon? Does this mean that her brother has feline traits as well, or did one of them have their species changed?
I know I should probably have clarified, and I know these things get confusing. This Kitty is how I appear on the Board- a normal girl with cat ears and a tail.
As for continuity- this RP isn't exactly canon, yeah.
Board RPs (and things like the Continuity Council) are as canon as you want them to be for your own spinoff. For example, I consider the Continuity Council canon, but this is not the case with most of the RPs I participated in.
Just need to get back to the 21st century first... maybe I should use the lightspeed-breakaway factor?
The Emperor Protects!
I think the urple-ness of the poster burned itself into my eyeballs. All I can see are the words 'A spork of your choice.'
And the llamas. *Shudders* Why are llamas going to appear? Whyyyy?
A friend of mine always wanted a llama.
