Enter the Master

[Each new arrival's iMog buzzes with a message instructing them to gather for a worldwide adventure to obtain the power of Vaikuntha. If they follow the invitation's instructions, they will arrive at outside of the airship hanger on the morning of the 15th, with their meager belongings packed.

An Enterprise-Class airship, the Ragnarok, hovers outside of the Curti Center. There is a flash of light on the top of the ship.]

"WELCOME!"

[A figure, minuscule at this distance, launches itself off of the ship and hurtles toward the ground. As he draws closer to the ground, he starts to flip, landing with a flourish. An armored figure, sans helm, turns his toothy Zora grin to the crowd. With a shimmer, his armor transforms into a white mage's robe, and he sends a rush of wind through the crowd for dramatic effect.]

"I AM GANESHAN, THE JOB MASTER! GYA HA HA HA! TODAY, YOUR LIVES WILL CHANGE FOREVER."

[Ganeshan shimmers again, ruthlessly abusing the Chemist's Modifier skill to once again shift Job Classes so he can lower the airship's loading dock with a wave of his hand.]

"I BELIEVE THAT EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU HAS THE ABILITY TO MASTER THE JOB CLASSES. SOME OF YOU MAY MASTER MANY, OTHERS WILL PURSUE THE PERFECT MASTERY OF JUST ONE. BUT EITHER WAY, YOU'LL BE INCREDIBLE!"

[Ganeshan gives everyone a big thumbs-up. The out-worlders who are not scared off by this booming speech can feel free to enter the airship and prepare for their ride around the world. Hopefully some of the Curti Center's newest hires can serve as non-crazy less exuberant tour guides for the new arrivals.]

Around the World

[The Ragnarok will be stopping at every major city in Vaikuntha, with the exception of those cut off by the Imperial border closing. Characters can create top levels to respond to the Guild prompts and explore the cities themselves as the ship makes its stops. Each Guild provides information sessions, free food and trinkets for potential applicants, and once you're ready to receive your Asterisk, all you have to do is take some introductory lessons and fill out forms. Characters can receive up to two asterisks. Time to get to know your new world!

Questions for Ganeshan can be directed to the Ganeshan top level post.]

Comments

[Aqua startles a little at the sudden applause, blinking before turning to face the person that had watched her.

She smiles then, faintly, one hand wandering up to tug at a strand of her hair.]

I know, it’s not quite my colour; especially not the shades they seem to be preferring here. Though maybe they have some rose or pink shades too…

[She isn’t holding her breath for anything in blue at least.]

[poisonwish]

[Snow shifted his weight and considered.] Pink could work. Something light.

Honestly, though, I didn't think they'd take Red Mage so literally. [He shook his head.] I mean, I like red fine --

[And he looked good no matter what.]

-- but too much is just boring. There has to be some way to dress this up. I won't be caught dead in anything less than fabulous.

[keytoblivion]

[Aqua can't help a little smile.]

Well, I wouldn't say that their style isn't fabulous… it's just a little mono-color.

[Which Aqua wouldn't have any problems with, if the color of choice didn't clash so horribly with her hair.]

But I'm sure there is a way to customize these outfits.

[poisonwish]

Hmmm... I suppose. There are some good things.

[He might have to agree halfway with her there. The decorative buckles, zippers, and laces were all appreciated. The hats with the feathers were a bit much for Snow, but he could see how others might like them.]

[He looked at his own outfit again and turned one way, then the other.]

But I will absolutely be changing it up. Keep my other boots, do away with the hat... The jerkin is nice, though, very soft leather. Keeping that for sure.

... I think it needs some animal print.

[keytoblivion]

Oh? What kind of animal print are you thinking of?

[Aqua rarely ever had the chance to think much about her fashion choices – while she certainly appreciates fine clothing, she's mostly been trying to be practical in her choice of cloths. She is first and foremost a peacekeeper after all, and needs to be ready to battle at any moment.

Still, that doesn't mean she doesn't have any interest in fashion at all… or that she isn't ready to converse and help this young man with his own choices.]

[poisonwish]

I'm thinking... striped pants. Like zebra stripes, except red and black. Maybe distressed at the knee.

[He nodded to himself as he imagined it. He wished he had his black boots, but he could use the white and pair it with a white shirt under the jerkin. And he could easily get another pair of boots after some... ugh... work. Or something. He'd figure it out.]

I used to have a cheetah print jacket, but it wouldn't go with this ensemble at all. I'd have to do away with the armor entirely... Which I suppose I could do.

[But it wouldn't be ideal. Without his powers, he was vulnerable.]
