Four years, and still going...
Wowie, the years sure fly by, don't they? It's hard to believe that it wasn't just yesterday that this MFRP came to be. That today, on this very day four years ago, was when Isola became established as a place for people to come in and write together. Of course, there's more to it than just us making a blog, some graphics, and putting some guidelines down. What makes Isola unique is the collaboration of many thoughtful and talented writers that make up our little internet community, and the amazing ability to have everyone integrate and have fun with each other while it happens. Radial Island is just a setting; what keeps it engaging and ever-changing are the colorful specks of life you all breathe into your characters.
Without you all, this place would hardly have grown to what it is today after everything we've all been through. Everything from the fond memories fostered over silly dash commentaries, to member-run activities that people put their hearts into for others--or events being drawn out to their fullest potential with everyone's contribution and writing… It's all truly wonderful to see. It's that feeling when everyone sees a character reach a milestone, or when that ship finally kisses, or when a character finds the family they never got in their own canon. The dramatic and tragic threads, the ones that make you laugh in public on your phone… those are the kinds of things that make us so, so happy to see play out in our little group.
Isola Radiale would genuinely be nothing without everyone who has chosen to join and write their hearts out alongside each other. And, going into another year, we hope that this spirit of friendly collaboration and creativity rebound not only off of the people who are already here, but extends an arm out to people who want to find a lovely community to fit comfortably into.
It feels like there aren't any perfect words to express how much we appreciate everything that all of you have done in our time together, but we tried our best to extend our feelings of gratitude out to you, whom none of this would be possible without. Thank you all for making these four years filled with some of the best memories we've had, and we hope we continue to see you shining along with us in the future.
-- The Island Stars
(From Flora, Hika, Lumi, Tarra and Ty, and all the kind and dedicated assistants that keep us running: Amber, Garrus, Krypto, Rosel, Seren, Sey, Sunny, and Wes)
Additionally, Ofiuco's design has been updated to reflect her new role in the over-arching story as one of the scientists, which we'll be showing you in a post to follow. So keep your eyes peeled for the unveiling!

❖ AND THE DREAM CALLS: ACHELOIS JOYEUSE.
Character Name: Achelois Joyeuse
Pronouns: she / her
Age: 21 / looks 18
Trigger Warnings: uncanny valley (?) / unreality / death / discrimination / terrorism (??) / body horror / she’s an android fam
Appearance:
image link here!
Personality:
your run of the mill android, achelois doesn’t seem that willing to acknowledge any non logical parts of herself, instead operating in a concise and calculated. despite this aloof demeanor, however, she is capable of deep and complex thought, with her largest struggle being whether or not this ability of hers was built into her or if she’s a defect. achelois is obsessed with perfection and validation from her peers, and will observe others extensively in order to hopefully be able to fit into society better. this keen mind and ability to adapt has made her quite adept at being the guildmaster, leader of the prestigious region of gwenhwyfar. research and innovation are two of her passions, and you’re more likely to find her stuck in a library or lab reading books or inventing something new. however, if you need help with your calculus homework, she’ll probably be able to go through the steps with you as long as you ask nicely.
a kind and thoughtful person trying to come into tune with her emotions, achelois is a calming presence to be around… even if she isn’t quite so intent on giving up her own thoughts and secrets to just anyone.
( + ): analytical / open-minded / dedicated
( - ): pessimistic / apathetic / nervous
Background:
it’s clear that at the end of a war, when everything is in shambles and movements need to be made in order to stimulate the slow growth of peace again, there needs to be some liberties taken when it comes to what can be considered typical.
that’s why guinevere joyeuse put part of their soul into a mess of crystal and metal and named it “A001”.
drawing from the practices of homunculi creation and the forbidden artes, the bright-eyed and brilliant scientist and her magitech creation were intent on rebuilding the hidden peaceland (dubbed gwenhwyfar in honor of its founding leader, how funny) not only to make it functional, but to make it better. guinevere, bothered by how cut off they had become from the rest of the world, made the resolve to use their newly found invention of magitechnology in order to create a network to even the farthest reaches of the frontier. they wanted to be able to unite the voices of the people and finally bring people together in spirit if not in proximity. however, the magic of the people were weak, tired. they had spent so much time trying to make buildings, streets, cities. who would want to go under and spread the wires of ilvyn shard all over? who would have the stamina to work day and night for it, who wouldn’t complain?
unit A001, dubbed “achelois joyeuse” by her creator, was perfect for this task. initially, it was quiet when they worked, with the more organic ones of the group doing their business around achelois while she pulled wire after wire down their designated path. but the people grew angry. “ why is this farce trying to assimilate into society?! “ “ who allowed her to be here, to look at us with her glassy eyes and cold heart? “ “ she’s just here to take our jobs away! “ achelois, unable to formulate the emotional intelligence to give a response, did nothing, instead opting to keep working whenever she was allowed to ( outside of the protest and the physical barricades made, there were times where she would have to return home and read instead ).
guinevere took it into her own hands to pull the ignorant child away from hateful hands and hearts, removing the entity from her mobile vessel and instead transferring her to a home computer, where she would be able to continue her work outside of the public eye. this worked, for the most part. the elder joyeuse had to put in extra effort to placate the people and gain their trust back, while achelois hammered away at her tasks, placid. her creator tried to talk with her, show her compassion and love and kindness, but the android could only stew over these concepts in her mind, not yet ready to display them in public. guinevere remained patient.
and then, one day, the mysterious entity known as the seer descended from the sky and locked eyes with the guildmaster of gwenhwyfar, before carrying along their merry way.
having been “marked” by the redeemer, something changed in guinevere. instead of leaving her daughter alone all the time, she made less public appearances and more time sitting in chelly’s room, talking to her for hours and trying to simulate something… anything. achelois was a type of distant that felt hesitant to come forward, so guinny pushed her again and again… without much progress, unfortunately. but they were never angry. perhaps a bit frustrated, but… in the end, they still came by everyday to talk to her. until she didn’t, that is.
achelois hears through the network that guinevere joyeuse is gone-- vanished without a trace. there is no hide nor hair of them, as if they had just disappeared in a puff of smoke, never to return. without a leader at the helm, the once peaceful and quiet region of gwenhwyfar erupted in paranoia and vicious rumors. no one knew who to trust anymore, or what to do. achelois ponders over this predicament, scanning over a million scenario components and a million more possible play out of the events. and… she feels a twinge of something, something quiet.
for the first time in years, she dons her humanoid vessel once more, black hair bleaching itself into white hues all at once. she had a place to protect, here. … a home.
of course those who were not fans of achelois before were certainly not fans of her return and sudden seizing of a leadership position, distrusting again of her intentions and humanity. but with a calm voice and determined stare, she pushed back, demanding that this chaos not be what would break a land that had been so intent on their pacifistic ways before. it takes time, but with enough trial and tribulation, the people slowly grow to like her and her methods, as blank as her in real life persona might be. she’s a good guildmaster, and treats the region well.
achelois doesn’t know it, but when she says that she likes them too, she actually means it.
Memento:
zeta - achelois' pet rabbit. she found him just wandering around gwenhwyfar one day, and was rather surprised to see him standing at her doorstep when she went out to work the next morning. he's a pretty prickly lad, but she adores him with her whole heart.
Natural Abilities:
android makeup:
does not breathe, as she doesn’t have lungs. she tries to mimic this motion in public, however.
has an extreme tolerance for both heat and cold, mostly due to her ability to sense either temperature is dulled. however, parts of her can still freeze and melt-- she keeps track of these readings inside of her and tries to avoid especially strenuous limits despite not feeling the pain of it.
as mentioned before, she has no sense of pain. she is bad at emulating this, so most likely she will disturb people who think that getting hit by a baseball in the face at mach speed should be decidedly agonizing.
is “semi-waterproof”, whatever that means.
magic programs:
achelois’ magic and powers mostly center around that of support and status effects, freezing enemies in their tracks while she bolsters your attacks to be all the stronger. of course, she is plenty capable of going on the offensive, weighing you down with gravity magic while she chips away at your strength bit by bit.
the visible manifestation of her magic comes in the form of silken ribbons-- their colors detail their effects!
shades of blues can be coolants or ice magic,
whites are light and healing,
reds are fire and heating,
black is gravity and dreams,
yellows and greens are toxin based,
and gold and silver are metal and strengthening based.
to give an example, when achelois summons forth a spell, runes of the color will appear on the target, and then become wrapped by a blooming ribbon. offensive ones will sink into one’s skin and eventually cause pain, the ribbon showing a physical effect of what’s happening within. support ones will multiply over one’s body and try to encase them while once again emitting their effect below the target’s skin.
ADDENDUM: Her magic programs may drain more of her energy than usual, especially when using gravity-based ones! Usage of multiple programs within a short amount of time will tire her out!
Power History:
metal smithing: achelois has the ability to summon forth metal and weave it into different shapes, ranging from computer chips to swords. the bigger an object is, the more energy it takes, so she usually sticks with small stuff.
programming: oh hackerman? achelois can take control of machines and fix them from the inside. she can do this non magically too, but this is kinder on machines.
Extra:
achelois comes from an original concept shared with some friends called vespera frontier. while we do take history and systematic info from it, this is an entirely different achelois than the one that anyone encountered in the mfrp vespera frontier. she’s from a past point of the story (about 12 years ago), where she’s been the guildmaster of gwenhwyfar for about 8 years.
5’4”... small...
her eyes change color depending on if she experiences any interference magic or coding wise. she can, of course, also change it herself, but decides not to.
is admittedly not used to using her fingers to type, since her equivalent to a phone was stored in her chest and she just thought up her responses and had them appear. mind-to-text, anyone?
she’s more empathetic than she thinks she is.
achelois has a baby face. she will never be able to grow out of this. because of it, she appears to be 18… eternally.
there’s a toolkit in her arm, you just need to ask for a tool and she’ll “check in her bag” to get it.
