Canon Updates

The structure of Planeocracy is such that characters are able and encouraged to return to their worlds and continue with their own destinies. As such, canon updating is frequent and generally painless.

If you wish to canon update your character, post here with the point in time you are updating to and why you are updating. Please try to keep spoilers minimal, you can be vague and we will ask for more information via private information if we feel it is necessary. After posting, a mod will reply. If we approve your update (which will happen at least 90% of the time), you are free to post as updated.

If denied, there will be an extensive description as to why the update has been denied, and ways you can sort it out. Simply respond to our concerns in your next comment and it will be processed as usual. Denial will almost always be attached to major changes to canon, or potentially to events we are planning involving your world (these events will always be cleared with you first, so in theory you should know it's coming).

We ask that you not canon update more than once a month, we may deny your update if you attempt to update too frequently.

I'd like to Canon update to chapter 4 of King Abaddon. Basically Ishigami-Cho had appeared during the P3/P4 plot.

The big difference now is the Earthquakes are very frequent, but once every few hours, sometimes one right after the other.

Also, as Raidou keeps traveling from the Capital to Tsukigata village, he finds a second portal in Tento Woods of said village.

Approved.

I will like to make a canon update for Asagi

Right now I have her right before her final battle with Hero Prinny from the first prinny Game. I would like to move her to just before the start of Asagi wars in Prinny 2.

What happened was she had one last fight with the Prinny... with herself dressed as a prinny. She thinks this will make her a great main character, and she can show the world who is better. She loses of course, and it is shown she put a bomb in her suit, for some reason(possible to be me prinny like). She can't get the suit off in time and it explodes, killing her. After the Credits roll it is shown she has been reincarnated as a prinny, with her own little white scarf so she doesn't explode when thrown, and her color is a bit darker. Since then she has been working for Etna in her castle.

Approved.

I'd like a canon-update for Sonic.

At the moment he is after the '06 storyline (that didn't exist) with both Storybook plots thrown in as products of a wild imagination and too many chili dogs before bedtime. >_>

I'd like to update him into the Unleashed plotline. This means Eggman actually getting the better of him for once (a humbling thing for a very not-humble Hedgehog) and a possible short stint as a part-time Werehog, which in CO itself won't mean much since there's no such thing as night there...

The robot blitzkrieg job is meant to dovetail into this storyline, since Unleashed literally begins with him making his way to the Egg Carrier for yet another showdown.

Approved.

Canon updating Locke to just before attacking the Floating Continent.

Canon-updating Jin to just after Continuum Shift after his thread with Ragna is over. This also changes his reason for being in CO, but I'll go more into that as I add character development.

Approved.

Okay, so apparently Lockon shouldn't have Cherudim right now, since if the Gundam Wiki is to be believed it got built into Zabanya instead of repaired. So I want to fix that, now that I've actually seen what Zabanya can do. He'll only be bumped up a few months, though -- not to the point of the movie yet.

Approved.

Well, though this is an original setting - things will be shaken up a bit enough to warrant a notification.

http://community.livejournal.com/planelogs/14543.html - the intended plan for this thread was for the Philosopher stone getting destroyed and 'tainting' the world with the power and drop into the earth. While at first this wouldn't seem to do much, but actually...

The dead, particular those who died of violence or regret get yanked back as spirits - but only the particularly strong-willed people. They got got particular traits:

-They're Corporal, being able to manipulate the environment and can be touched.
-They cast no shadow
-They don't make a sound if they walk, even if they're walking with spurs on a wooden plank
-If they ride, it's always on a pale horse, and the horse vanishes when they're not traveling
-They're almost single-minded in their earthly goal, usually Revenge or to right a wrong.
-They only go away if their sense of need is fulfilled, or someone finds their body and reburies it with blessings.

Approved

Raidou will be Canon updated to the next chapter. The changes:

Anyone who was possessing a Luck locust has been attacked and killed by giant fuck-off locusts. Raidou had to endure a ritual trial to forge someone that can actually kill the Locusts. After that, someone who attempted to assume a god-like position did not realize what it is and thus:

Instead of one giant fuck off locust, there's dozens thanks to this idiot. Thankfully after some causalities they moved off to Tsukigata and left the Capital.

The other thing?

There's a gigantic RED HOLE in the sky with a large gray-black orb floating in it. The rest of the sky is just gray clouds. And this has made the average man on the street everything nervous and on the border of going into full pledge mass panic.

basically: Big red hole in sky everywhere, giant death bugs in Tsukigata village.

Approved.

If it's alright, I'd like to canon-update Marona up to episode 12, right after returning from the Rainbow Bird chase on the Island of Evil. This will mean she has now purchased the deed to Phantom Island, making it hers. It also means that she doesn't actually need to work as a Chroma any longer.

Approved.

Canon updating Ike to the middle of Chapter 5. He'll have some actual combat experience under his belt, but what's most notable is that Crimea was invaded by Daein and Ike found a princess who, as far as the public knew, didn't exist and brought her back to the fort. Ike will return very shortly before Daein's attack on the fort.

Approved

Only kind of a canon update, but I figured I'd ask officially:

I'd like for Souji to be able to get his ultimate Persona, Izanagi-no-Okami, out of the current player-run event by finally facing his own Shadow - normally he gets it from an optional boss fight against Margaret in a New Game+. It makes sense, and prevents me from jumping through ontological hoops and screwing with his CR to get him to go through a New Game+ "in game".

Approved.

Canon Update

-Soma met Yoko Belnades, a Witch-Nun who warned him that Graham's not to be trusted and he has the power to "command and control monsters" and it's dark

-Then he meets the mysterious "J" who is an amnesiac with a connection to the castle.

-Graham realizes he has this power, and starts going evil bad guy with threats.

-The major power changes he'll get is a Headhunter Soul - which increases his power with each soul take, Nemesis - basically emits a "Not My Problem" field around Soma, Death - basically summoning a rain of flying sickles, Kali/Curly - turn into an avatar of the monster to basically have a burst of incredible strength, Undine - Walking on Water. He does have a few new elemental attacks, but those above are the only real notable additions.

Approved.

Chapter 14: Training

Sanaki declares that she has no proof of her claims, leading to a heartfelt testimony from Ike, then dismisses Ike's testimony since he's a commoner and informs them that Sephiran, really the Prime Minister of Begnion, vouched for her identity. She was playing a game with Elincia for her own amusement, which led to Ike yelling at her and the Senate and nearly losing his head for doing so.
-After the meeting, Ike apologizes to Elincia for the outburst, but Elincia thanks him for sticking up for her.

New canon point: Chapter 14, Base

A new gate has been discovered in the guest room at Mainal Cathedral.

Just doing a little mini update to account for some things that I forgot until rewatching some of the anime that changed about Ed. I'm bumping up to just as they were heading north to Briggs. He hasn't gotten there yet.

Approved

Current Canon Point: End of Chapter 20

Chapter 21
-Lucia speaks with Sara in a prophetic dream, remembering the phrase "protect the child from the wings".
-Kaito goes overseas for a surfing competition. He gives her the key to his house.
-Lucia hears a child's voice from the orange princess pearl.
-Lucia encounters Michel, a four-winged angel who claims to have stolen "that young man's power" (Lucia has no idea what he's talking about). He threatens to steal her own powers if she doesn't join him, but interrupts himself with a painful coughing fit and runs away.
-A news report on TV reveals that Kaito has fallen victim to a freak accident at his competition and has gone missing. Lucia runs away.
-In what may or may not be a dream, Lucia thinks she sees Kaito telling her to go somewhere. She follows an orange light underwater, not stopping or realizing where she's going until she comes upon ruins all the way in the Indian Ocean. Sara projects her spirit there from under the seal (it turns out that this was her castle once) and assures Lucia that no descendant of the king of the Panthalassa could possibly die by drowning, so accident or not, he must be alive. The child's voice speaks again; it belongs to Seira, destined successor of Sara, who needs to be born from the orange princess pearl so there can be seven princesses again.
-Michel tries to get Lucia to join him in his plan to eliminate humans. Lucia refuses, and Michel interrupts Seira's birth ceremony, stealing the pieces of her heart and leaving Seira not yet born. Thanks to Sara, Lucia manages to take the orange princess pearl back before Michel can steal it. Lucia learns that Michel has stolen Kaito's power and is behind his disappearance.
-Lucia wakes up in her room above Pearl Bathhouse. No one even remembers her running away, but they believe her story.
-The new school year begins. Kaito returns to school safe and sound, but he is accompanied by a clingy new girl named Michal, and he has completely forgotten the past two years. He even believes that Michal, not Lucia, is the one who saved his life as a child. Lucia pretends she's fine with it and runs off to sulk by herself so no one else will see her depressed.

New Canon Point: Mid-Chapter 21, before the encounter with the Black Beauty Sisters

Approved.

I'd like to canon update Nier and Weiss to just after the first fight with Hook and the initial meeting with Kaine. This is part of what I aim to be a monthly (loosely) canon update until he hits the point where he has to change journals to reflect the physical change.

Approved.

Current Canon Point: Chapter 14, Base

-The Greil Mercenaries eliminate a group of bandits peddling a mysterious cargo. During the fight, they encounter two Feral Ones -- laguz driven insane and locked in their animal forms. Marcia recruits her brother, Makalov.

Chapter 15: The Feral Frontier
-The Greil Mercenaries are sent to the Grann Desert to deal with another group of bandits. Upon arrival, they discover that the bandits are all laguz.
-Either Lethe or Mordecai recruits the swordmaster Stefan.
-Upon defeating their leader, Muarim, the Greil Mercenaries enter the Zunanma Ruins, which they had been using as their base. There they encounter a young beorc boy, Tormod.
-Tormod tells the Greil Mercenaries that they had been fighting the laguz slave trade in Begnion. While there was a ban on laguz slaves and the commoners obeyed it, the Senate did not.
-Ike takes Tormod back to meet Sanaki and get the full story.

Chapter 16: The Atonement
-Ike gets the truth out of Sanaki. The Senate is indeed still secretly participating in the laguz slave trade, and she used the last two missions to educate the Greil Mercenaries on what was going on. She wanted to do something about it.
-The Greil Mercenaries were instructed to investigate the villa of Lord Oliver, the Duke of Tanas, due to suspicious activity taking place there.

New canon point: Chapter 16, Base

Approved.

Current canon point: Mid-Chapter 21.

Chapter 21
-Lucia meets the revived Black Beauty Sisters, who are now working for Michel. When she refuses to join them, they attack. She's saved by Hanon and Rina.
-Lucia gets a lecture about hiding your true feelings and how it's not the end of the world if you're depressed because your boyfriend has laser-guided amnesia.
-Seira regain: Friendship.
-Lucia goes to the Amagi mansion, lures Kaito out with her song, and tells him that she'll bring back his memories no matter what. Michal and Licht are spying on them like creepers and figure out what's going on.

Chapter 22
-Michal's decided that she's going to properly steal Kaito before he can remember Lucia, while Licht's decided that he's going to keep his sister from doing so because that is just not a nice thing to do.
-Lucia begins to tell Kaito what he was like before the accident to jog his memory.
-Seira regain: Love.

Chapter 23
-Licht approaches Lucia and tells her that he's on her side.
-Kaito slowly begins to remember things about Lucia, but can't connect them to her.
-Michel's servants use Michal to lure Kaito into the ocean, then use Kaito to lure Lucia in, then use Lucia to lure Hanon and Rina in, and it's all a big mess. The point is, everybody ends up in this weird-looking secret tower full of winged animals and double-helix-shaped pillars.
-Lucia learns that Michel and his servants are part of an ancient race that used to rule the world, hence their wanting to wipe out humans and take it back. They were revived by some third party they simply refer to as "him".
-Seira regain: Strength.
-Seira, in her fragmented state, manages to call forth Aqua Regina in enough capacity that the main trio gets a new song.
-Speaking of people coming back in spectral form, Gackt shows up, but instead of wanting to fight, he just drops hints about restoring his brother's memory.

Chapter 24
-Caren, Noel, and Coco rejoin the party.
-Hanon talks Lucia into breaking into Kaito's house to clean it while he's living with Licht and Michal. Predictably, she fails all over the place.
-And predictably, Kaito goes home and finds her in there. In the shower. Cries of PERVERT are, for once, averted out of pure shock. She ends up nearly confessing the truth, and finally, unknown to herself, triggers his memory.
-Seira gets a regain, but we're not entirely sure what it is.

New canon point: Chapter 25

Approved.

Georik will be Canon Updated to chapter 5: Demon in the Church.

He tries to take Communion in church, but turns out - Holy Stuff now Poisons him (and this is after an Angel telepathically threaten him with tortrous death if he dare steps inside a church). After getting the crap beaten out of him by Mikhail, he ends up getting rescued by a mysterious seller of black market goods and now has an in-world supply of Alchemy ingredients.

Now anything religious/holy/light is going to burn him and he isn't going to voluntarily step on holy ground.

Approved.

Not that it makes a lot of difference since I doubt she so much as makes a cameo, but Ran's getting canon updated to incorporate what we know of Ten Desires so far.

Approved

Current Canon Point: Chapter 16, Base

-The Greil Mercenaries arrive at Oliver's villa. Ike orders Titania and Mist to scour the grounds, while the rest are taken on a guided tour of the villa by Oliver himself.
-The Greil Mercenaries see nothing out of the ordinary, but Titania and Mist come back and testify to seeing a laguz with white wings -- a member of the royal family of the heron clan. Unable to defend himself, Oliver orders his personal soldiers to kill the Greil Mercenaries.
-Soren, Mist, Rolf, Sothe, or Tormod recruits Devdan, a street performer press-ganged into Oliver's service.
-The Greil Mercenaries defeat Oliver's troops in the villa and reach the room where the heron royal, Reyson, is being held. Reyson rejects Ike, and flies off toward Serenes Forest. Oliver's troops soon follow.
-The Greil Mercenaries return to Mainal Cathedral, and Ike barges in on Sanaki, demanding to know the story of what happened 20 years ago.

Chapter 17: Day Breaks
-Sanaki relays the story of the Serenes Massacre to Ike and Elincia -- 20 years ago, the apostle Misaha was assassinated, and rumors put the blame on the heron clan. Enraged, the people of Begnion torched Serenes Forest, nearly driving the heron clan to extinction in the process. She then states that the herons were innocent.
-Sanaki declares her intentions to make amends with the herons, and asks Ike for his assistance one more time -- this time, to find Reyson and bring Sanaki to him, so that she may beg for forgiveness for what her people had done. Should he succeed, she promises to lend Begnion's full support to the Crimean cause.
