January 2023 Roundup
Pantries and storehouses are beginning to look empty, and Winter still has Ivras in it's grasp, but the light is returning. Slowly, people are getting excited for the upcoming Feast of Flowering, eager to please the Patrons and perhaps ensure that the coming year is better.
This roundup, we present the new mods and say farewell to a few old ones, and offer you a new fresh story prompt!

Meet all the characters who joined us during the month of January 2023:
february 2023 Story Prompt:
Bottles of various shapes and sizes have been washing up along the shores of Ivras major waterways lately. Some are empty, but a lot of them still hold strange liquids inside.
It was not long ago that Miriam ordered potions and elixirs to be seized, targetting potion-makers, alchemists, and mage healers alike. Could this be a shipment of such illicit substances, lost on its way to Namarast? Or was there some truth to the rumours of Witchfinders throwing away dangerous magical substances, even being the cause of the Affliction?
Your character has found one of these bottles. What do they do?
Prompt responses must be worth at least 1 gold (i.e. at least 100 words or at least an uncolored headshot).
Upload your response like any other art or literature submission, tag this character profile, and claim your gold; collect double your total count for prompt responses. You may submit roleplays as prompt responses, but every participating character's choice must be clearly indicated for mods.
