ACTIVITY CHECK (Month of August)

[616]

ACTIVITY CHECK | Month of August

Welcome to Exsilium's Activity Check! This check covers the month of August, from August 1st until September 1st and will count for the entire month. In this Activity Check, players will be providing their own proof of activity using the form below. You are welcome to provide activity check links for yourself as well as other players.


First thing's first, a quick run-down of the Activity Requirements here at Exsilium:
TWO of these FOUR requirements must be met within the span of ONE MONTH.

A. One post in the main community.
B. One comment thread a minimum of 5 comments long, where those five comments are comments left by your character.
C. One post in the logs community.
D. One reply to a log thread by your character at minimum.

You can combine and/or duplicate these four options at your leisure. Activity will be met with two of them out of the four, and they may now be duplicated. Any comments left during the month will count for activity even if they are backtags for a thread that began in a different month, as long as there are enough of them dated for this activity month.

Characters accepted any time after August 15th or who were on a FULL HIATUS for 7 days or longer are exempt from this activity check but must still comment to let us know. We will, of course, check the hiatus page for exemptions still before compiling our final list! Note: Characters on Activity Warning status do not qualify for hiatus exemption.

<b>Character:</b> character name ★ <i>canon or original</i> ★ <user name="JOURNAL"> <b>Proof of Activity:</b> Link your activity here. <b>Upcoming Plans:*</b> Tell us what your character has planned for next month! <b>CR/Plotting Desired:*</b> If you're looking for plotting or CR for next month, here's where you can let people know! <b>Additional Notes:*</b> Anything else.
Please fill out the above form, one for each character! The sections noted with an asterisk (*) are optional.

Replies to this entry are due by 11:59PM EST, Tuesday, September 4th. Characters who are unable to meet the activity check requirements or provide proof of activity by that time will be automatically dropped and removed from the game.

Reminder that the following characters are on Activity Warning status and must provide 3 pieces of activity for the month:

Garrett Hawke — youallneedme
Steve Rogers — akidfrombrooklyn

As always, questions and concerns are welcome on this post as well, but may be better suited to PM so I will see them more quickly! Thank you very much and happy playing!

LMAO no worries. It's not actually explicitly stated in canon but the basics of it is that new wolves have a harsh bloodlust and pretty much go crazy with the need to kill everything always forever for their first full moon.

As they grow/develop/get training, they can learn to control it, even to a point where they aren't forced to shift. This control generally comes from an 'anchor', or some deep emotion that reminds you that you're human. Love for someone, anger, something big and life shattering, stuff like that.

Isaac is relatively new, but he's found his anchor, so while he'll shift into his werewolf form, he'll be relatively calm- though he'll still feel those urges. Our resident Scott in canon seems pretty in control of himself for the most part, and Derek, who is a born werewolf, can do it effortlessly.

They're also kind of ugly. :C Icon related
