Required Check-In
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.
The comment structure will look like:

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.

(frozen comment) Red Wine ◈ Food Fantasy
(frozen comment) March 2024
Player Name: Fiona
Summarized Activity: Generally settling in, trying to decide on where to live, despairing at not being able to find any wine that is to his tastes (alas). Feeling out general attitude towards summoned beings like himself.
(frozen comment) Re: March 2024
(frozen comment) April 2024
Player Name: Fiona
Summarized Activity: Though he is still settling in he has found a place to crash and has ended up in an unexpected FWB relationship with one Dohalim il Qaras. Just why they are so drawn to one another is anyone's guess... but honestly he's not going to complain about it.
(frozen comment) Re: April 2024
(frozen comment) May 2024
Player Name: Fiona
Summarized Activity: Continuing his unexpected but not unwelcome relationship with Dohalim and navigating the man's cripplingly low self-esteem. He's otherwise settling in to not being dead and all that (thanks, Thirteen, he guesses) and figuring out what he wants to do while he's here.
(frozen comment) Re: May 2024
(frozen comment) June 2024
Player Name: Fiona
Summarized Activity: Mostly just existing this month, and dealing with Dohalim being an emotionally stunted idiot who can't manage his own feelings ever (about anything, ever). 'Figuring out what he wants to do' has currently become 'lots of naps, actually', for now.
(frozen comment) Re: June 2024
(frozen comment) July 2024
Player Name: Fiona
Summarized Activity: Stretching his wings a bit more and starting to get more curious about the goings on and other people here. It's been too easy to keep to himself but he's not entirely a loner and Food Souls do like to help people, so watch this space etcetc.
(frozen comment) Re: July 2024
(frozen comment) August 2024
Player Name: Fiona
Summarized Activity: Red has been taking some time to explore around Folkmore and chat to some of the spirit folk who live around various areas. He can't help but feel a kind of kinship with them over a lot of star children.
(frozen comment) Re: August 2024
(frozen comment) September 2024
Player Name: Fiona
Summarized Activity: He definitely doesn't seem like the type but Red Wine took to his building assignment with ease, tying his hair up and pushing up his sleeves to get on with whatever needed doing. Given he's not a fan of getting dirty/sweaty or of daylight, he complained a fair bit, but no one would have had reason to doubt the quality of the work he was putting in.
(frozen comment) Re: September 2024
(frozen comment) October 2024
Player Name: Fiona
Summarized Activity: Getting dirty and standing about under the sun still isn't Red Wine's favourite thing but neither is he willing to stand by and do nothing while people are struggling to rebuild their homes. He's been pitching in to assist anyone who needs it - even the local spirits - and doesn't shy away from work even as he bitches intensely about any cuts or blisters he gets on his hands. Perhaps surprisingly, he's neglecting any repairs required on his own home in favour of helping others. Just little Food Soul things.

(frozen comment) November 2024
Player Name: Fiona
Summarized Activity: Outside of finally picking up his own place and helping out anyone who might catch his attention in needing it, and being ridiculously mushy with Dohalim, he also met a certain Tone-Deaf Bard (Venti) and surprised him by drinking him under the table. Do not challenge the physical embodiment of an alcoholic drink to a drinking competition.
(frozen comment) Re: November 2024
(frozen comment) December 2024
Player Name: Fiona
Summarized Activity: He’s been spending time honing his swordplay and generally being self-indulgent, or indulgent of Dohalim, as the situation calls for.
