⇨ WISMUTH

Who: Everyone!
When: S2:D6-D11
Where: Wismuth and the Carnival Grounds
What: The carnival enjoys a few days in Wismuth, a coastal city on this planet's version of the American east. However, there are a few things very unique about this version of the planet...
Warnings: The usual, wholesome fun.

PILLAR OF CREATION

Upon arriving, things in Wismuth will seem pretty peaceful. It's a massive city, with no shortage of things going on, but things like violent crime and homelessness are at an all time low. You can wander the streets without much scrutiny, presumed to just be tourists, and most people here come across as helpful and friendly.

VIBRANCY: The main thing that sets this planet apart is its vibrancy - AKA, the raw creative energy its filled with, flowing from its status as a Pillar of Creation. There is no literal pillar, but Wismuth and its planet is a place where Creation's energy comes through strongest. As a result, everything here feels somehow more real, more intense in a way that's hard to put a finger on. Life is abundant, and its bleeds through in every sensation.

ATTRACTIONS: There are plenty of things to see while going around the city. First and foremost, there is a lovely beach area bordering the ocean, and a number of tourist aimed attractions built around it. There are giant malls, movie theaters, live stage performances, museums and all kinds of other points of cultural interest. Anything you can do in a big city you can do here, but better.

ALLOWANCES: The Ringmaster will be giving everyone a reasonable amount of local currency for a few days on the town. You can't make any massive acquisitions with it, but it's more than enough to eat out, see some shows, go to the beach, and whatever you like. You can feel free to pick up some casual supplies, like mundane clothing and souvenirs. There will be more given out later, after the performance week.

PERFORMANCE: Performance week is starting early this time, after only a couple days of exploration. When the carnival has already been on vacation for a month, the Ringmaster figures they may as well get right to it, and then do more touring afterwards. Members of the local populace will find themselves in the carnival once performances begin, dazzled by the other worldly sights. Magic doesn't seem to exist here, despite the fact that it will flow easier for people bringing it from other worlds.

"Zhat's not zhe reason for my...tension. " She waved it off as the final thing she was going to say and then focused on the rest of what he was saying once more.

"...Vell, at least zhey von't be permanent vhen zhe contract ends. I zhink I could live vith zhem vith zhat being the case." she actually smiles at that revelation and relaxes again. "but, I do vonder if zhey are as varied az you say, zhen just vat vill manifest for me vhen zhey finally do. "

"Tension?" WHOOPS he sure misread someone's tone. But, they're moving on. Moving on quite far away, and he shakes himself.

"Aaauh, it will be quite a mystery in that regard..! Though... ...I, the man Gongenzaka, can say this!" he realizes, blinking. "Often...a change will connect somehow to where we are, or what we have been doing...in particular, if a glamor of a more unique sort has been employed to allow us to better blend with the population. ...The inhuman population," he adds, nodding.

"Such as in... ...Atlantis-it was entirely under the sea, and thus, those of us there became fishlike."

Well, that makes sense. Or as much sense as anything else does around here. Rip nods slightly and considers the possibilities that opens up for changes.

"Zhen zhe changes can reflect more.. a persons abilities und personality? Und I'm assuming zhe glamor iz vat makes you look normal to zhe populace of zhis vorld?" She chuckled softly. "Honestly, if I had not caught zomething out of zhe corner of my eye, I vould not haf noticed your own unique changes in zhe slightest."
betheman: (say what son-)

"Occasionally!" Honestly that's the best he can do. "As I, the man Gongenzaka, said... ...it will vary, after all."

He does find himself going a little red however, nodding. "A-Auh...specifically, it draws upon my original, human appearance..."

Someone's Been Changed Lots-

She can tell once she hears he was originally human.

"Oh? How zo? You might haf to explain since zhe only indication of human I haf of you iz zhis glamor."

"It is exactly as I, the man Gongenzaka, said-rather...what you see as my glamor, is how I, the man Gongenzaka, appeared before arriving within the Carnival. The only difference... ...would be clothing, truthfully."

"Oh? Zhen do all glamors vork like zhat vhen ve are out and about avay from vork?" Another interesting thing to note if it was true. Though, Rip doubted she would ever end up looking like something similar to him.

"Aaah, for the most part. Obviously, if one already looks too different from the surrounding population... ....mmmm, the Glamor would mask that then, as well..."

As with changes then...it is a variable.
