Although we have no new applicants this week, we do have a special treat for all our lovely players! One we think you will all enjoy and will directly tie into our plot moving forward as well as everyone’s characters!

Last week, our first task dropped. A big thank you to all of you that participated! They were amazing to both view and read, and you guys outdid our expectations as usual! 

                                                                              HOWEVER ...  😏

In tune with our hottest discord channel: conspiracy theories, we included something extra that perhaps no one noticed! Carefully chosen and inlaid within the graphic for the last task were THREE CLUES that hint towards what is involved in tomorrow’s plot drop! To make it interesting, we are offering a prize:

The first player to correctly identify ALL THREE clues by either IMing or messaging the MAIN BLOG (no discord guesses will be counted) with their guess will win both the opportunity to play a key role in our 3rd plot drop as well as get to choose their partner for tomorrow’s drop.

The original post can be found here, but the graphic is also posted again below the cut. Good luck & happy hunting!

Heads up, Councilors! We have decided to extend the current event another week, with a new plot drop happening on Wednesday, July 17th! We want to make sure everyone has ample time to react to our surprise drop, and we’re working on some stuff behind the scenes. So, happy plotting!

The Arcana Council will be officially convening in one hour! Our first plot (which we are very excited for, and hope you are too!) will be released at 2pm EST, and with that we will open and ready for threading! This has been an incredible adventure so far, and we can’t wait to write with all of our amazing players!

A reminder: we are still short three cards and are therefor still on the hunt to add them to our deck! Our next acceptance round will be Tuesday, May 7th. Spread the word!

And that concludes our acceptances for today! Congrats to all those accepted, and a big, big heartfelt thank you to each and every one of you who submitted an app. I’m not being fluffy when I tell you they were all a huge pleasure to read. We were trying to rationalize how we could have twin cards!!

We will begin to update all of our relevant pages including the masterlist, follow list (as blogs come in), ooc page, trigger page, and app count. Please bear with us as all of these feisty coding changes are going through.

With three cards still available, including two of our Ambitious Three, (The Chariot, The Lovers & Justice) our submit box is now re-opened. Our next acceptance day will be Tuesday, May 7th. For those who were not accepted today, we’re more than happy to provide feedback if you’d like it, and we sure hope you’ll give one of the remaining cards some thought! 

To all our new councilors: get those blogs in and get ready to plot! Our first event drops tomorrow! Thank you everyone who helped make this magic happen.  💖 💖

               To all our amazing members and lovely lurkers alike:

      It is with mixed emotions that we formally announce the temporary closure of The Arcana Council. This brainchild of ours has been a tremendous success, something that neither of us could have foreseen becoming what it has been and we could not be more in love with it and everyone that has been a part of it! Both Divya and I wanted to express our extreme gratitude towards all the amazing writers and genuinely awesome people that have been with us both from the beginning and as our magical journey continued on.

      Unfortunately, due to several (different) issues affecting both of our personal lives that have been or are becoming rather time consuming, we have made the mutual decision to take a step back from moderating the roleplay... for now.

                                      What does this mean to all our current members? 

The Discord server will remain open and active as it has been. We couldn’t bear to part with chatting with all of you!

You are more than welcome to continue writing your beautiful characters! They are yours after all, we simply will not be providing plot drops or tasks for the time being.

Divya and myself are both still around via discord or our personal tumblrs if you need us!

When (not if...when!) we decide to re-open, you will all be the first to know, likely through the Discord server.

                                                What does temporary mean?

      This is more or less a hiatus for us admins. We love this roleplay to death (mostly because of what you all have made it into!) and we have no plans to say goodbye to it forever. We both anticipate our schedules re-opening up as we approach the holidays and into the new year, so be prepared to be enticed in the coming months! We still have a lot of plans and heart to put into this roleplay, so we could hardly close it forever.

                                                                 In conclusion: 

      Thank you all for joining us on this journey so far. The creativity and joy you all brought to our idea has been incredible, even when you yourselves have been caught in busy or rough moments. As soon as we’re able, we’ll be back again to take you where this plot is meant to go - cliffhangers are the worst, but we're determined not to leave this one unresolved. You’ve all been a wonderful family to us, and we sincerely hope to see as many of you as possible when we return. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us.

       Thank you, as always, for the sincere and perfect love and dedication you’ve given to us and our silly magical card idea!

                                                  Forever yours,                                                    Cori & Divya

hey darlings! i was trying to access the members masterlist and it appears to have a broken code. just wanted to give y'all an fyi! also, this rp is so cool and i am totally working on an app!! lovely job.

Hey anon! I have actually been meaning to make a post about this for a while now, and you just gave me the perfect kick in the pants (in the most polite way possible) to do so! 

So, small announcement to all our lovely followers: our masterlist of skeletons is currently under repair! We’re working on fixing it, but in the meantime our mobile navigation has links to open and closed characters. Let us know if we can help you in any other way! Thanks again anon!
