    What's wrong with just using they/them?

    so, this is sort of a matter of the game's age showing. Adrienn was introduced as a character back in 2013, and at that time they/them hadn't really gained traction as a viable single person pronoun yet, or it was just starting to. when we were introducing adrienn as a character to the league we did some research and xe/xem/xyr seemed to be the most popular at the time (not that that was saying much), so we went with that. since then, they/them really caught on a lot more. frankly i wish we had gone with that instead, but it feels extremely weird to retcon a character's pronouns, so we've committed thus far.

    Summer Social 2020 Apocalypse Party

    in News and Announcements

    Posted

    world is burning may as well have a grand old time with it

     

    For those of you just joining us (or just becoming more involved during this crazy train): Reborn hosts two online parties a year, the Summer Social, and the Winter Revel! And the Winter Revel is coming up on-- 
    ...no, that's not true.
    The Summer Social is coming right up on June 27th!

     

    We'll have a dedicated server, music, games both official and spontaneous, movie showings, a whole lot of craziness, and as we do every summer, the Reborn Royalty contest!

     

    Below is our schedule and list of events!

    Main Events

    • Main Movie Feature: Weathering With You
      • Every year we do a group anime movie showing during the party! This year's pick is Weathering With You from director Makoto Shinkai, who party or anime veterans might recognize as the director of last year's movie, Your Name. We'll be doing two showings so that no matter your timezone you've got a chance to make it! Plus, now that Discord allows up to 50 people in a broadcast, it's easier than ever to join!
        Below is the description for Weathering With You:
    Quote

    Tokyo is currently experiencing rain showers that seem to disrupt the usual pace of everyone living there to no end. Amidst this seemingly eternal downpour arrives the runaway high school student Hodaka Morishima, who struggles to financially support himself—ending up with a job at a small-time publisher. At the same time, the orphaned Hina Amano also strives to find work to sustain herself and her younger brother.

    Both fates intertwine when Hodaka attempts to rescue Hina from shady men, deciding to run away together. Subsequently, Hodaka discovers that Hina has a strange yet astounding power: the ability to call out the sun whenever she prays for it. With Tokyo's unusual weather in mind, Hodaka sees the potential of this ability. He suggests that Hina should become a "sunshine girl"—someone who will clear the sky for people when they need it the most.

    Things begin looking up for them at first. However, it is common knowledge that power always comes with a hefty price...

    • Risk Reborn
      • A new game debuts at this year's Summer Social as its feature event! You might be familiar with the classic world domination game! But isn't the world just a little big? At this party, join with Team Meteor or one of their opposing factions and fight for conquest over a Reborn Map divided into territories! You are the armies and the tacticians! More details on the game will come out in the future!

    Game Room

    • Curses
      • If you read our Winter Revel announcment, you might be confused why this is here since we said it was going ot be moved to the winter line-up instead of summer. The explanation is simple: the game is fun so actually it's on both now. sorry not sorry. Battle it out in a free-for-all Q&A as each player stacks up more and more 'curses' restricting how they can type! Spite other players with creative curses to knock them out! These games go so far off the rails it's hard to see where the tracks even were to begin with!
    • Mad Libs
      • We'll be kicking things off this summer with an <adjective> game of Mad Libs, turning these parts of speech into a party of speech! Everyone in the group will get a chance to contribute whatever <adjective> kind of <noun> they wish so put on your <verb ending in ing> hats and get ready to <verb> this stuff up!
    • Jeopardy
      • Game Descriptions for 400? 
        Answer trivia-- wait no, ask trivia and rack up points in this classic! We'll have a brand new board ready for you this year and the winner of this game could be eligible to win a prize!
    • Party Quirk Battle Royale
      • Last year's main event returns as a a mainstay game! Everything must be a battle royale and that includes Who's Lines classic Party Quirk game! Everyone is assigned a Secret Quirk to act out in chat while they try and guess the other players' quirks! If your quirk is guessed, you're out! Last man standing is the winner!
      • ❌ BNHA fans still don't interact ❌ 
    • Never Have I
      • Lights dim, the sun's done, but the fun's not! Stay up late with us-- our soul-baring Never Have I sessions are a breath of fresh life into the late night party! What happens here stays here, so make sure to stay tuned for it!
