Please submit the following form for canon updates:

Player Name:
Character Name:
Name of Canon:
New Canon Point: Episode, chapter, event title, whatever best describes it. This should be less than 5 words.
Are there any large characterization changes that would change how you play this character in Isle of Avalon? If so, explain them. Do not write a full history of your character's canon.
New Learned Skills: Powers may be nerfed, but if your character learned a new human-level skill, they are welcome to retain those gains in Avalon.
Anything Else? Is there anything else you think we should know in addition to the above information?



Please submit the following form for CRAU updates:
Player Name:
Character Name:
Name of Canon:
CRAU Game(s): You can do multiple DWRP games if your character went to them. List in chronological order.
New CRAU Update Info: Provide history and any changes in perspective/personality that your character has experienced. We do not have access to all games and threads to know what occurred, so please include all information. Remember that mods do not have access to all other games/threads you had, so if this section includes jargon you would only know if you were in the game, be sure to provide context and definitions.
New Learned Skills: Powers may be nerfed, but if your character learned a new human-level skill in the game you are CRAUing them from, they are welcome to retain those gains in Avalon.
Anything Else? Is there anything else you think we should know in addition to the above information?



REMINDERS:
  • Canon updates occur ICly in the following manner:
    Because time is frozen outside of Avalon, canon updates will be more like memory rebuilds. Your character was simply lacking current memories, which their familiar noticed and puts your character to sleep for a full day to attempt to re-strengthen their bond with the character to help them regain those memories. This can happen as many times as the player wants.
    This means that characters do not gain new inventory upon canon updates. If you would like to gain new items from your canon updates, please see the rewards page for more information about Home Regains.

  • To update to new canon content, the new content must be at least 1 month old. This is to respect other players who may not have had the chance to play, watch, or read new content yet. After 1 month, we still ask that you mark spoilers accordingly.

  • Mods have the right to nerf any skill gains if they are deemed to be more along the lines of powers/magic or would somehow be worldbreaking. As far as we can tell, any human-level skills would not be able to do that, so this is mostly just a disclaimer in case something comes up that we didn't think of.

  • If your character would've gained new scars/height/other physical appearance changes in a canon update, you can choose to have Avalon's natural magic update it for them while they sleep so you can still have body alterations even though your character doesn't leave.

    PLAYER NAME: Aina
    CHARACTER: Weiss Schnee
    CANON: RWBY
    NEW CANON POINT: Volume 8, Episode 14, after Blake and Ruby fall
    INFORMATION: All episodes of volume 8 actually happen in just about a day or so, and it's a direct continuation of Volume 7. In turn, the whole "canon update" Weiss will end up having is just one day forward into the future.

    Volume 7 ends with RWBY and their friends wanted by the Atlas Military for not cooperating with General Ironwood. Volume 8 begins with them hiding in Mantle to come up with a plan. They don't seem to agree on what to do, and they end up splitting into two groups and going their separate ways. Weiss' group tries to infiltrate the Atlas Military base to be able to get communications for all kingdoms up and running again. Things don't go exactly as planned, and they end up having to go back to the Schnee manor to hide and nurse Nora back to health. Eventually, after much trouble and a lot of hiccups, they all reunite and create a plan to save the people of Atlas and Mantle from Salem.

    There isn't much development on Weiss' end throughout the volume, but the canon update is more for her to gain knowledge of what's to come. She does, however, find herself on better terms with her brother whom she'd disliked for a long time since she knows he dislikes her, too. She'll also still have the knowledge that her father is alive, and that her teammates (Ruby, Blake, and Yang) are likely dead. It's something that she'll be processing in the game!
