(This is a mechanic of the RP, meant to emulate William's navigation.)
(You have 8 moves before you land.)
(You can spend a move on one of two things: - Look down to see what's directly below you. - Move in one of the indicated directions.)
(You can land at any time, but after all 8 of your moves are spent, you will be forced to land.)
(Good luck!)

I guess I did recognise her from a show I was in then, just not the season I really did anything in. It's like a weird cross between a flooded city and a bunch of tiny islands.
Like a bunch of chunks of city were pulled up and dropped onto this island.
Well, less 'a bunch of tiny island' and more like 'a maze of strips of land and strips of shallow water'.

Perks are each represented by two keywords.

3 sounds like straight up mind control, potentially
consequences is a heavy term
cosmopolitan def: free from local, provincial, or national ideas, prejudices, or attachments; at home all over the world. of or characteristic of a cosmopolite. belonging to all the world; not limited to just one part of the world. Botany, Zoology. widely distributed over the globe.
2 sounds like itd be absolutely what we need right now so of course its a trap option

Avatar
System BOT 10-Feb-21 01:50 PM
Perk 1: Get Your Shit Together (Rick and Morty) (100CP) You find that (occasionally) your words have a real weight to them. While this is far more effective when used sparingly you find that you can keep your incredibly dysfunctional family together or even drastically change the course of action of an amoral, egotistical genius with a short speech. Perk 3: Newspaper (One Piece) (50CP) You get a newspaper delivered to you daily. It will always have the most relevant or important information in the world, and the consequences of your actions on the large scale. The writers do seem to be a bit biased, though...
Perk 2 delivered.

Perk recognised. The Eiffel Tower (Civilisation) (200CP) Serving as a sculpture or trinket, The Eiffel Tower promotes your cosmopolitan nature. People treat you more like ‘one of them’ because you look like you’re willing to entertain ideas other than your own. This aides in diplomatic talks and business deals. As a structure, The Eiffel Tower is a shining beacon to the glory of your culture. The people that follow or surround you are proud of where they came from and will be less likely to immigrate or switch jobs. It essentially enhances loyalty.
