Attendance Check-In
Check-In Information
Check-in opens on the 1st at 12:01 AM EST.
Check-in closes on the 8th at 11:59 PM EST.
We do not require traditional "activity" check-ins, but we do require an interest check-in to ensure that our players are present and still interested in the characters they play.
You will be required to check-in during the 1-8th of the month. If you cannot access a computer during this time, please let a mod or friend know so they can check-in for you.
You must check in your individual characters. If you fail to check in with any characters, they will be swept from the game.
If you missed check-in due to extenuating circumstances, please contact the mods ASAP and let them know the situation.
We ask our players to be active in the game even without formal activity check requirements. If we notice any concerning patterns with the same players missing check-ins and being swept from the game or being irresponsible with check-ins or squatting we will contact the player directly. This may include restrictions from reapplication into the game or actual activity requirements.
Please respect your fellow players and mods! We want to keep this game activity-requirement-free and active.
Anatomy Of Check-In
Every player will have an overall check-in comment with their name as the subject line. Every character a player writes will have a comment with their name and fandom as the subject line. Each month, players need to post a comment under each character's comment with the month and year in the subject line.

Check-in Content
Check-in comments are IC only, and are required to include a minimum of one thing your character did this month. You're welcome to include more.
Formatting is your choice: sentences, bullet points, something else. We're not picky!
We do not want links to threads, OOC explanations, or apologies. Folkmore is a chill game, and it's completely fine to have not played much.
We welcome and encourage handwaving. Give us something your character did in the background or plans you have to back thread. Note handwaved interactions you discussed with other players. Many players use their check-in posts as records of important beats their characters experienced.
The bottom line is to show you have some OOC idea what is going on IC, even when you're not actively able to RP, to demonstrate your continued interest in the game with the character.

Summarized Activity: sansa made a collection of ready-to-wear accessories to sell at hoot couture; she announced this and offered to take commissions on the network. so far this has been mainly outerwear and winter basics. she had a talk with ezra shortly after and became an Official Couple!! she continues to make an effort to get to know her friends and has even made some of her own! she spent a lot of time learning to figure skate in never fade and is competent on the ice, though she hasn't really learned any spins or jumps yet. she's also been working on her spring/summer and bridal collections for school. she continues to study with and help rue at hoot couture and is looking into magic lessons with other characters.

(frozen comment) february 2024
Player Name: lindsey
Summarized Activity: sansa began february by planning a small party for ezra's birthday, in the process acquiring cooking lessons from obi-wan. at the party ezra surprised her with her direwolf lady (also crau), who acts as an emotional support animal as well as sansa's primary familiar. sansa shares lady's senses when they are in proximity, and together they have learned to sniff out things like magic and various traps.
prior to valentine's day, sansa helped rue manage a holiday rush of orders at hoot couture.
on valentine's day sansa presented ezra with his mentor kanan's holicron as a gift, which he had won in their previous game when sansa and ezra ran a casino shakedown together in order to rescue some friends (she also sent her friends little valentines notes).
sansa spent most of her free time skating, though she's been a little more comfortable exploring with lady. she's been visiting the dog spirits in wintermute and enjoying the hot springs. when never fade...flooded in the middle of the month, she was able to find an alternative ice rink at kuma lisa academy, and has been learning figure skating techniques from the spirits there.
rue left sansa in charge of hoot couture for the week starting on the last day of february. she has been enjoying working on commissions again and has written all transactions down in a ledger for rue.

Summarized Activity: sansa spent the first week in march looking after hoot couture for rue. she spent a lot of time in the following weeks catching up on her schoolwork! she made tapestries for ezra and leia's new house and helped them with moving. she didn't like that they moved further away, although she and ezra continue to spend time together and she visits the jedi house often. she's now considering moving out of her one bedroom in satori hills, but she hasn't decided where she wants to live yet.
she went to the science expo and watched the opening ceremony with her friends and gave karma the cat many treats and pets. she developed water powers and helped teach leia organa to use her fire powers with mental techniques she'd learned in her previous game, consequently they were approached by the hot springs spirit, whom sansa was eager to help (she loves the hot pools, they had them at winterfell!). she also learned about criminal psychology and less eagerly about agricultural techniques, which she dutifully documented. she made presentations about them at the mingle party, though she spent most of the night dancing and talking with friends.

(frozen comment) may 2024
Player Name: lindsey
Summarized Activity: Sansa moved into a condo on luan street in the beginning of may with a friend from a previous game––tory nichols. she spent a lot of time working on her spring/summer collection this month. she had a lot of fun at the mingle and made as many confessions as possible without giving away too much about her relationship with littlefinger. she was briefly shocked to learn that another stark was in folkmore by the name of tony, and was devastated to discover he was from earth. she later met tony stark and they developed a familial connection despite their different universes. she and razor also swore to be siblings at the mingle. she made a number of new friends there, including bruce wayne, who she later did an experiment with on the urban legend surrounding the feathers of the luan street birds.
she also enjoyed the trial at farm to sky, eating the potatoes, salad, and ice cream. she received a doll her father had given her in canon in addition to a lot of goofy prop replicas and pictures of her friends and family as dogs. she gave tony some plastic replicas with stark iconography to make make molds of and cast in metal, insisting he keep a copy for himself.
her world ribbon was drawn to her as she has a strong connection with the spirit of westeros (the 'old gods,' which she explained to several people at the mingle), and she found it on luan street with the help of ingo. she advised him a little on finding his own world ribbon. when she discovered it was affecting the passing of time she attempted to use it to get some extra work done, but soon noticed it was draining lore and returned it to thirteen.

Summarized Activity: sansa helped settle razor and the wolf pack closer to epiphany at the beginning of the month. she spent a lot of time working on her spring/summer collection for school. she also has been helping evan buckley establish a fire department in folkmore, coordinating supplies and sewing fire fighter suits (which she does not enjoy). when new arrivals began landing in cruel summer she offered to track down selkie skins for the river nymphs, who expressed concern. she had befriended them when she was living in nereid. she has been scouting the wildfires and extinguishing them whenever possible, obtaining arya's 'cat of the canals' coin purse from braavos and a powerful silver shield charm that she found in her previous game (she still has some ongoing threads where she hasn't found a reward yet!!).

(frozen comment) july 2023
Player Name: lindsey
Summarized Activity: sansa finally mastered a few of the spells rue has been teaching her at the beginning of the month. unfortunately her fashion show was postponed by wildfires and the arrival of the fey. she spent a lot of time with ezra consoling and commiserating with him over the loss of obi-wan kenobi, as she has experience with losing brothers and empathized with him strongly. she was very suspicious of the fey when they arrived and this dramatically increased when she was turned into a myth for the event in the middle of the month. she spent a lot of time scouting and talking to her friends among the selkies and river nymphs for information. she found a small crooked house in exile and outfitted it as a waycastle with basic supplies and simple steel weapons and shields. she has been staying at serenity house for the past few weeks after ezra expressed concern over her emotional state. she's been practicing and experimenting with her magic and ninjutsu, and is considering how she can best assist ezra with leia's jedi training.

FYI, to be consistent with what we told Natasha and Illarion, please be aware that the supplies stored in Exile may disappear (also true of Cruel Summer if anyone does the same there). You are welcome to plot shenanigans. During some events, supply caches may be unavailable.

Summarized Activity: sansa remained a myth at the beginning of the month, staying at serenity house with ezra and leia. she made a lot of leather armor for people, and attempted to gather information on the fey from the network by posing as a new arrival.
the glamour faded when the new arrivals began appearing at amrita, and sansa attempted to help them. while doing this she ran into her sworn sword and adoptive sister from trench, vi. she returned to her house in epiphany with vi and has resumed school and work at hoot couture. she briefly took over the shop while rue was mourning the departure of her husband. she's also decided to keep an eye on one of the new arrivals from her realm, aemond targaryen, as she knows from the historical record that he rode a very large dragon and was associated with a lot of violence.

Player Name: lindsey
Summarized Activity: sansa attempted to recruit models for her combined spring/summer and autumn fashion shows and collaborated with kate bordello on petit fours to accompany each collection. unfortunately this too was postponed by the instability in folkmore and subsequent confinement to amrita academy. sansa was incredibly upset to have lady put in a boxfox and frustrated not to have a raven to help her with scouting and other tasks. she was also deeply upset that vi and sharon were missing and that she couldn't look for them. she did make a familiar bond with matthew the raven at this time to help coordinate search and rescue attempts.
at amrita she concentrated on setting up textile production and making essential items like underwear and hunting leathers. in her spare time she rounded up livestock with the help of a harpy eagle she named sheepstealer and did her best to calm the chickens.
she made herself and a lot of people nicer clothes at the mingle, and scooped up as many survival cubes as she could (while eating the lorasses). she helped salvage as much as possible and provided ice for anything perishable.

(frozen comment) october 2024
Player Name: lindsey
Summarized Activity: sansa worked hard making clothes and producing textiles at Amrita. she was very relieved to be reunited with the missing star children. she started experimenting with vegetable dyes with the help of some friends in the cooking group. she tried summoning stronger dyes when lore became somewhat accessible again but received them in liquid form and without containers. she turned 19 on the 17th and had a small dinner party.
she was extremely glad when lady was released from her boxfox on the 21st and returned to her home on luan street with her friends and birds. she attended minako aino's birthday party and was a little jealous that she got to have hers outside of amrita just a week after sansa's! sansa did her best to clear debris and bring it down to the sea turtle using her unseen servant spell. she met ezra's foster parent and mentor kanan jarrus and found arya's coinpurse from braavos in the process.

Player Name: lindsey
Summarized Activity: sansa hosted displaced selkies in her home and the rookery in november. she spent a lot of time helping them look for the river selkie's 'skin' with her friends and lady, and recieved the smooth stone. she met more people from her world's past and tried to help them learn to get around and manage household tasks. she was excited to visit the turtle's new island and participated in laser tag which she saw mostly as an exercise in learning to dodge lasers. she loved the tiny turtle band and sang with them. her sworn sister vi gave her a magic lunch tin from her previous game that had the power to summon any food she asks for once a day. she used this to stock up on pantry staples in case of an emergency and to help feed her houseguests. she brought lemoncakes to the puca park potluck and was a little skeptical of their suitability as a soup ingredient, but she did eat the soup after friends told her it was nice.

Summarized Activity: sansa spent a lot of time catching up on her schoolwork and making gifts for her friends.
she accidentally froze some of the water spider-bots and mistakenly believed they were the ice spiders that accompanied the white walkers in old nan's stories, so she summoned obsidian spears to mount a defense with the nymphs at nymph port. she soon learned of her mistake, and one of her spears was transformed into a spider-bot, which she kept even after it shed its wood and obsidian form.
she attended rue's holiday party and various other winter celebrations. she planned and hosted a new year's party for her friends and castmates, and spent a lot of her spare time in wintermute.
