event: memory corrupt
On the morning of Friday, June 1st, characters who are participating in this event will wake up with their memories of their entire life history altered. While they will still remember their time in Mayfield, they will believe themselves to be from an alternate universe than the canon they're from. Examples of AUs we will allow include but are not limited to:
alternate timeline; the overall world remains the same, but someone makes a different decision than the one in canon that sends the universe traveling down the other leg of the Trousers of Time. (For example, what if Harry Potter chose to be in Slytherin rather than Gryffindor?)
alternate setting; the fundamental rules of how the canon world works have changed. (Example: If Pokemon often killed humans or died instead of fainting.)
alternate history; your character is now from a different era in their world than the one in canon.
alternate future; essentially a fake/alternate canon-update. Please note that while your character may now have memories of being older than their current age, they will not physically age up as well.
Feel free to come up with AUs outside of the above as well. That said, we will not allow the following types of AUs:
non-canon crossovers; if the crossover doesn't exist in canon, it won't be allowed. (A Kingdom Hearts character believing themselves to be from the world of Aladdin is fine; a Kingdom Hearts character believing themselves to be from the world of Harry Potter is not.)
alternate species; your character must remain the same species as they are in canon.
We will also not allow the following:
alternate regains; all current regains your character may have in Mayfield will remain the same. A non magic-user in canon who is being taken from a universe where they're a sorcerer will still be unable to use magic in Mayfield. Characters will also not be able to use the Post Office to trade for regains from their alternate universe, unless it's a regain they would be able to normally acquire.
physical changes; no matter what AU your character is from, they will remain physically identical to their canon counterpart.
If you have any questions, please use the thread in this post. Feel free to also use this post to plot with your fellow players. This event will end on Tuesday, June 5th, upon which all characters will wake up with their canon memories intact.
EDIT: A general event log has been put up!
