State of the Taxon: One Day Early!
Greeting Taxon! It’s April, time to shower you all with information!
CALENDAR: Located here as ever. Let us know if there are any events you’d like to have added!
• APRIL FOOL’S: After March came in like a...horrible monster with fangs and claws and a thagomizer, the aliens have opted for April to begin on a lighter, whimsical note. For all of April 1st the city will be filled with harmless pranks like buckets of water or glitter balanced atop doors, cream pies left just sitting around waiting to be thrown in someone’s face, and whoopee cushions in the damnedest spots. Careful opening any containers today as “snakes” may jump out, and handshakes may result in mild electric shocks.
• TAXIVERSARY: The Taxon Project begins its fourth year on April 15th! Stuff will happen! It is a surprise!
ANNOUNCEMENTS
→ First off, we want to thank you for all your feedback on the HMD. We’re assembling a modly response to it and will have that up shortly. Also we want to say that we’re thrilled with the overall response to the HMD and want to encourage further discussion if you feel the need to have it.
→ Taxon has a tumblr! Or a thing for Keri to waste time on at work! One thing that’s always been a frustration is being unable to really provide a proper visual example for what the city looks like. Hopefully Taxitecture provides the next best thing! Each image is set in a particular district (Central, Osten, Speares, etc.) and is further tagged with functionality. Or it’s just there to be pretty. If you’re looking for a place to set your next post you can check out public spaces, or if your character is in need of a home you can choose a residence. The tumblr’s there for inspirations, scroll through and see what you come up with!
→ As ever, we want to hear from you! Email or PM the mod account, hit one of us up on AIM, grab Keri on plurk, or you can always hit up the suggestions or complaints posts if needed.
AROUND THE CITY
→ Weather/atmosphere: The weather’s staying with Batumi and getting increasingly warm and pleasant!
Really, spring is bustin’ out all over with flowers and pretty floral bonnets and the introduction of songbirds and squirrels to the city’s wildlife. It’s a glorious season so long as you don’t mind the occasional wicked witch.
→ Freebies: Candy and the aforementioned bonnets will be available from the hatches and stores. If that seems cheap? Don’t fret, the aliens aren’t letting the project’s birthday pass without giving the citizens presents. They’ll have a blast.
→ Awesome, It’s A Party!: Down at the beach in Osten spring break is in full swing! It’ll be noticeably warmed at the coast, and anyone exploring that way will encounter a brand new five star resort as well as numerous skeevy dive joints and bass-thumping clubs. Take a break, play some volleyball, shake your groove thing, and
MEME
Here is your monthly CR meme! Jump in, tag around, have a grand old time!
