REWARDS
INFO

    We have three tiers of rewards available, all of which have more information down below. Please fill out the appropriate forms (you may combine different tiers into one comment) and follow the formatting below.
TIER 1: COMMISSIONS

    Completing commissions from the biweekly Job Boards count towards bonuses. All you need to do is have completed the commission, or have the thread be a total of 10 comments minimum (so at least 5 per character). In the case of the latter, it is okay if the commission is still in progress; as long as it's the focus of the thread and 10 comments in. You may give us multiple submissions for the same job, as long as they are with different characters.

    Commissions are eligible for rewards up to 1 month after the commission was posted.

    Rewards in this tier are generic items that come with effects upon usage/consumption, or generic items that feature your character in them in some capacity! Commission rewards may also occasionally include items that are specific or relevant to the commissions themselves. These commission-specific rewards will be given once per person, per commission, which means that you cannot earn the reward 3 times for submitting 3 threads involving the same commission.

    Note: Your first commission turn-in for the month will net you some new abilities that you can play with! These would typically be given with AC, but redeeming commissions will enable you to play with these abilities a little earlier. This bonus will begin from the end of Week 2.

TIER 2: PLAYER EVENTS/EXPLORATIONS

    Player Events are defined as player-run events that are considered game-wide player plots. For example, a mingle, someone causing trouble for everyone in the dorms, breaking up a large fight -- anything big where the whole game can get involved. Smaller plots (i.e. ones that are for 3 people) do not count.

    Explorations are defined as mod-run CYOAs (choose your own adventures) that may pop up throughout the course of the game.

    Threads must be a minimum of 10 comments, one submission per event per player. For Player Events, event runners may submit their post/initial writeups for a reward in this tier.

    Threads in this tier do not expire and will always be eligible for rewards.

    Rewards in this tier are gacha items that were submitted to us through your applications.

TIER 3: RANK 10 SOCIAL LINKS

    This is meant to be a "late game" sort of reward tier (though these can be submitted at any time), in which both players must agree that their characters have "maxed out" their bonds. Maxing out doesn't necessarily need to be in a positive way; essentially, both parties must hit a point in their CR where they feel as though they have revealed as much about themselves to one another as they possibly could have, even if they both feel negatively about one another.

    For positive CR, this may mean that characters trust one another completely; for negative CR, this may mean that a character understands how the other operates, but disagrees entirely with the other's ideology. We are pretty flexible on the reasoning behind achieving a Rank 10 Social Link, however, so don't worry too much about providing the "perfect reason". As long as both parties feel like they've established an extremely strong piece of CR, we'll likely count any reasoning towards the reward.

    A reward for maxing out a social link is a custom ability that both parties will receive. There is no cap on submissions at this time, but both parties must be present in a battle to use the ability they have received.

    Please follow the instructions in the form below when submitting for a Rank 10 reward.

MAFUYU & SAYAKA

RANK 10 SUBMISSION: Our marionettes.... Mafuyu and Sayaka are mirrors of each other, in a way- though one is from neglect and sculpted herself to be as unbothersome as possible, learning how to be a person from television before entering an industry of lies, while one was sculpted by her mother to be as perfect as can be. The two are aware that how they've lived, how they've been treated, and what was forced upon them are wrong and that they deserve better. But its only in seeing the other that they could voice it clearly before they had to step off the stage themselves- and now Mafuyu and Sayaka are forging their own paths and supporting each other as best they can- one to heal and rest, and one to stand strong for principles that are her own choosing and no one else's.

LINKS: commonality, connection AND THERES ONE MORE THREAD WE NEED TO DO BUT WE'RE BOTH SICK/UNABLE TO TAG PLEASE WAIT WARMLY ITS GOING TO HURT SO FUCKING GOOD

Amity said it all perfectly! The two girls are reflections of one another who've lived different, but similar lives, and have found their own purposes for stepping forward and into the light; Sayaka's to protect what she's decided she holds dear, and Mafuyu's to escape into a world where she can finally be allowed to rest. Sayaka had a deep amount of respect for Mafuyu and what she's dealt with (even using the girl's first name at her behest because the surname only brought her pain), and Sayaka considers her fellow singer among those she wishes to protect; in both encouraging her to run away, and if things had proceeded poorly in Sou's palace, Sayaka was perfectly ready and willing to lay down her life for the other girl to make sure she was safe. Sayaka wants to do all she can to protect Mafuyu's dream of a peaceful future, and their understanding has truly bloomed as they got to know each other. We stan.
