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.


[ 2022 Check-in Page โ˜… 2023 Check-in Page โ˜… Full Navigation ]

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:
๐ŸฆŠ Player Name
๐ŸฆŠ Character Name | Fandom
๐ŸฆŠ Month Year
๐ŸฆŠ Month Year
๐ŸฆŠ Character Name | Fandom
๐ŸฆŠ Month Year
๐ŸฆŠ Month Year
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.

Character Name: Katsuki Bakugo
Player Name: Sil
Summarized Activity:
๐Ÿงจ Katsuki continues to keep an eye on Hawks. They met at the Lore River, and first Katsuki spoke about his issues as a way of being Better at that than Hawks, but Hawks also spoke about missing having a family (aka people who just like him/don't need him as a hero). Katsuki tried reaching out to Hawks, but the guy remains adamant about holding others at a distance for their own safety, so patrols it is. He's set up patrols with the guy. Katsuki may be blind to working on his own potential, but he's not to the people around him. (yay another rock).
๐Ÿงจ It is a mark of friendship that Katsuki investigated the footprints in the river bed with Shoto. Shoto has all kinds of crazy ridiculous ideas (aliens, why aliens), but there's worse ways to spend his time.
๐Ÿงจ Other people might not call them quirks, but Katsuki found someone who needs similar kind of training to Kirishima, and he's so down to do it.
๐Ÿงจ Katsuki went to the potluck, ate soup, and got waaaaaaay too emotionally open with Vi. Everyone has to have an introduction to the potential effects of food in this universe. However, the next day he woke up hungover for the first time in his life, with her spoon, and without his relic. Showing true maturity, he used her spoon to purchase a temporary tattoo, sneaked into her house, and planted it right on her cheek. Revenge successful. Oh except she totally glitterbombed them both once awake, and he's never going to feel clean again in his life.
๐Ÿงจ On a more hero front, Bakugo leaped into the ring in the fighting pits to help save Altair, yes that murderous Myth, because he's not going to let anyone get killed right in front of him. Not even a murderer. He also helped make a koi pond in Makie's garden to help the selkies. Real hero stuff.
๐Ÿงจ Less heroically, he navigated the dessert with Oleandra and sniped with her plenty along the way. Peak maturity.
