Here's a centralized post for plotting out for the event!

Here's a breakdown summary of every prompt on the event;

Gambling Problem - The Shuten Clan is running an old-style den casino in Sai no Kawara with all kinds of games of chance to try your hand at. Shuten dealers have been trained to cheat on behalf of the house, of course.

Pleasure Palace - Tamamo has created a palace-like house of pleasure. It's essentially an extremely high end cabaret club and brothel, with both an indoor and outdoor stage for performances.

Gossip - With so many high profile clients in town for Tanabata, it's Sutoku's jobs to keep their ears open for all the hot goss they can. One thing in particular most characters will hear about is trouble in one of family of a particular finance wolf. His daughter wants to be a musician. He's trying to get her to come home. Drama ensues.

Tanabata - The usual Tanabata fun, though the Stardust-fueled magic creating the star show might make everyone feel more inclined to get in on the peace and love. What's more, the magic may impact the wishmaking itself! Take a chance, right?

"We Know Who You Are" - The infamous Iron Bear has made their presence felt. An attempted assassination is thwarted, but the finance wolf's daughter is kidnapped, and the Enma is here to make sure everyone starts talking about what they know. A tense ending to a party, but at least no one's in immediate danger. Right? Right?

Azula | Avatar: The Last Airbender | Enma

Player Name: Yon Fellow (Or just Yon)
Contact: YonFellow also on Discord as YonFellow#5490 (Am available/active in the game server)

Character Name: Azula
Canon: Avatar: The Last Airbender
Faction: Enma
Brief Rundown: Well she's actually relieved that this is the first time real violence has happened since she showed up because all this civilized existing was the worst, and that basically tells you all you need to know.

Initial Ideas:

1: Gambling Problem
Azula's not at the arena to gamble or to fight, she's there to see other people fight. Useful information for later. She might, however, be persuaded to wager a small amount on an underdog fighter if she sees potential. The other noteworthy thing here is that she'll be way more sociable/approachable here than she will at the party, if you ever want to see what she's like when she's actually sociable/approachable in any fashion.

3: Gossip
Azula won't be talking, but she will be listening. Y'know, like a creepy stalker. Her particular point of interest is A: Criminal activity, and B: Anything to do with fellow Lost Souls and any rumors therein, because those are the ones she's going to assume are valuable for her.

4: Tanabata
The centerpiece of the evening. Azula is there and dressed in the nicest yukata she could get her hands on, because it's her job, and she is miserable. She'll be doing her best sullen wallflower impersonation the entire night, because she had her fill of mingling at the festival, thank you.
Naturally, she's therefore very able to be pestered. Oh, and she won't be bothering with this wish nonsense, barring some spectacular browbeating.

5: Iron Bear
Okay, see, this is more like it. Azula will be very ready for action. If Enma forces are mobilized, she'll be there, and when she's not there, she'll be investigating, either via interrogation or trying to find some physical evidence of where the kidnappers could have gone to. Is she... enjoying this? Yeah. Yeah, she certainly seems to be.

Anything else: She's 16 and also psycho, it does limit the options some.

Sheliak got some of his water magic back and he will be eager to show off at the arena, particularly after his frustrating job as a dealer at the casino. Also, as someone who tends to be secretly miserable during social obligations he might sympathize with Azula. He is also going to be doing his own investigation after the kidnapping since he doesn't want the Enma to hold all the information.

Let me know if any of these options sound interesting to you.

Well, my immediate impulse is introvert sad times commiseration, because it makes such a perfect counterpoint to how unpleasant their tdm thread was and it will throw Azula right the hell off. Which is, of course, always great.

lol I agree. Azula caught him off guard last time so it's time for Sheliak to return the favor. Plus he can't help being intrigued by their similarities even if he doesn't like her.
