[ canon update ]
If you'd like to update your character to a different canon point, fill out the form below and comment to this entry. Please note that characters can only be updated to source material that has been out for at least one month. We will try and process canon updates within 48 hours.
ICly, When your character is on a canon update, they completely disappear from the world. It's almost as if they were removed the game, however there's a key difference. Their amulet will remain and be in a translucent state. Characters will be gone from the game from three days to a week. They will reappear wherever their amulet is and can continue their progress from wherever they left off. They will also retain all of their memories.
If you have any questions, contact one of the mods or ask them on the form.
Player:
Character:
Current Canon Point: The canon point upon application.
Updated Canon Point: The new, desired canon point.
Updated Background: All we need is all the new information, so just a summary of what's happened between the current and updated canon point.
Updated Personality: If anything has changed about the character's personality fill it here. Just like in the original application process, we need as much details a possible, especially if there were any big changes.
Updated Abilities:
Other: Anything else worth mentioning.

Character: Usagi Tsukino
Current Canon Point: End of Stars arc but before the epilogue/marrying Mamoru
Updated Canon Point: Technically not a traditional canon update so much as a power update.
Updated Background: So, when Usagi, canonly, turns 22 she becomes full Lunarian according to her canon. She also becomes queen of Earth and the Moon as well as give birth to a daughter but only one of the things will be happening in the game and that’s her becoming full Lunarian and coming into her full powers! And well, looking like a queen even if she hasn’t been coronated back home yet.
Updated Personality: What we know about Neo-Queen Serenity is basically from what everyone else tells us about her and the few glances we see. On the surface of what everyone describes, she’s elegant, well-spoken, graceful, calm, warm, diplomatic, wise, kind, fair, intelligent, ethereal and otherworldly, and always under control in every situation (well, almost every situation). She sounds perfect, like a fairytale queen who took away illness, war, and strife from mankind, ushering in an entire millennium of peace and prosperity.
But this isn’t really the case. Oh, Serenity is everything everyone says she is, but she’s had over a 1000 years to get there and even then, she still makes mistakes. This will not be that Serenity that Usagi turns into at age 22. Usagi will turn into Serenity and work towards becoming the woman everyone claims she is… while doing everything she can not to repeat the mistakes of the future that lay ahead. (She sees you Wiseman, and you can bet you aren’t getting exiled her turn around, you genocidal maniac, also she’s totally not letting Chibiusa feel like a complete loner in her own home). Becoming Serenity DOES give Usagi SOME new personality quirks, though not many, because again, the Serenity we get glimpses of has been at it for a millennium.
Usagi/Serenity will be a little bit calmer and a little more self-assured and confident. She’ll be harder to rile up and is less likely to be casual in her speech and actions, but this is still Usagi BECOMING Serenity so she’ll very likely slip back and forth.
Updated Abilities: HERE’S THE BIG DIFFERENCE. The silver crystals powers are technically ALWAYS at 100% and it’s just Usagi who physically and emotionally matures to be able to handle it. If Usagi as Eternal Sailor Moon was functioning at 85%, then Neo-Queen Serenity is at 95% access to the crystal (with Cosmos being at the full 100%). So, Usagi is already OP-as hell and game-breaky where she’s had several power caps put in place for her in game. But Serenity is…. just so much worse, because Serenity is her MOST powerful form before turning into Cosmos.
So:
A full-time Moon Goddess: So Serenity is just straight up immortal, incapable of dying of illness, old age, and quite possibly incapable of being killed at all because her body is capable of resurrecting itself. But she has gone from being human to just a straight up moon goddess. She gets a nifty crescent moon in the middle of her brow at ALL times, her hair will be permanently silver/white, her skin is as pale as, well, the moon, and she glows at all hours of the day, and no, she can’t seem to turn it off. So have a moon goddess night light.
THE ABILITY TO TURN INTO SAILOR MOON WILL BE GONE. No more Eternal Sailor Moon and the ability to kick ass as a senshi, but that’s because Serenity can do… so much more just as herself. She can still fly with wings, she can still levitate, basically everything she could do as Sailor Moon she still CAN just… now in a long skirt instead of a mini. The only big difference, though is she’s lost the ability to kick your ass physically.
Power Transfer: Whereas before Usagi could send or receive powers so long as someone else had powers. Serenity can give and receive powers to whomever she pleases across the distance of A SOLAR SYSTEM regardless of whether or not they have powers and she can give them however much power she wants. She can grant someone powers and essentially they get to keep it without her having to be there or focusing on them to keep the transfer going. Obviously in-game she won’t be able to send things across the length of the solar system, but if allowed, maybe she can just make a permanent power transfer to someone?
Healing: So, whatever Usagi can do with healing that pushes her to the brink of killing herself, Serenity can do without breaking a sweat. While Usagi CAN heal a planet (with a power transfer from the senshi to help), it would very likely kill her in the process of doing it. But Serenity can basically heal a planet, revive the dead,
restore balance to the Force, and all sorts of other miracles without even breaking a sweat or needing the powers of the other senshi to help her do it. Serenity is able to do it all on her own. This power, just like with Usagi will be HEAVILY capped if not outright nerfed depending on the situation. But Usagi/Serenity will no longer be wiped out by her acts of healing.Defensive/Offensive: So, Serenity is still able to attack and defend, which we know she does against Death Phantom and Prince Demande. The only thing is her powers are more vague/nebulous because she doesn’t announce them the way Sailor Moon does. She just holds out her staff and does it… whatever IT is. The barriers and forces of light she uses are just “MORE” and we don’t really have an example of it otherwise. As previously stated, Serenity does what Sailor Moon does just on a planetary scale rather than an individual one. She still won’t be able to do something on a massive planetary scale here either.
Other: I am perfectly okay with more power nerfing as necessary!
Questions: Since this is more a genetic thing, does Usagi still have to disappear?

Power Transfer: We are completely fine with the power transfer in general, however we'd prefer if it was a temporary one, or at least similar to how Regis and Noctis from FFXV are able to lend their powers to others. That said, before we can delve on how that would work, we were wondering what kind of powers Serenity would be able to transfer.
Healing: We only have two conditions we'd put on her healing to keep things balanced. The first is cannot resurrect the full dead since that breaks a few things game lore wise (Mr. Reaper might get a little upset). The second is handling the extent of her healing. She can heal people all day every day if it's minor injuries no problems, but when it comes to healing critical, fatal injuries, we'd like to restrict that a little bit. She, like any other healer, is fully capable of healing someone with fatal injuries to a non-critical condition to be taken care of by medical staff. In theory, Serenity can do this continuously with only a natural limit in that she couldn't do this all day without any fatigue, so there would have to be a point where she'll need to rest a day or so before continuing. You could put a patient number limit to make it easier to gauge.
In the most extreme scenario of highly critical conditions, she could do a group heal of a small area (about a block radius) and bring them to a more stable condition, but she would only be able to it once and would then need to rest and just be limited to minor aid. Thus Serenity could handle the most extreme, cannot-be-helped-with-medical-aid victims while other healers and doctors can focus on others. This is very unlikely to happen, but giving an extreme case might help get an idea of the kind of limit Serenity has.
Defensive/Offensive: To keep things simple, we think having Serenity's power level be something like one or two levels above Eternal Sailor Moon's might be an easy way to reference her strength. To compromise, she'll be able to maintain and have the ability to use her powers with greater endurance. Not limitless, of course, it should still be reasonable, but we'll leave it more to your discretion. An example would be she could maintain a defensive barrier around a large area for a long time, with Arehtei-tier attacks the level that would cause her more strain.
As to whether or not Usagi would have to disappear, given the circumstance she would not disappear.

Power transfer: So, technically, a power transfer for Usagi is just her picking an ability and letting someone else share in that ability or just straight up going "here is more power to give whatever you've got more OOMPH." So, in game, she's given Sora the ability to have wings so long as she's literally nearby to maintain the power transfer while she's with him. But technically, as Serenity she could just GIVE him wings without ever thinking about it again and Sora could have wings whenever he wanted cause she's granted him that ability. I am not sure how Regis and Noctis work to lend their power though, so if I knew how they did it I wouldn't necessarily say no to it? But if it were temporary, would it be for X amount of days or just a few hours?
Healing: totally okay with her unable to resurrect the fully dead, she can't do it as Usagi and she'll understand that she can't do it as Serenity. I'm fine with the extent of the minor vs. major but would she be able to heal sicknesses (with mun permission)? And a block radius and maybe, I don't know, 15-20 patients? (if that's too many no worries we can bring it down even further), even in game she's never done more than a few people healing wise, even in an event.
Defensive/Offensive: That also works for me! The trade-off between Usagi and Serenity (which we see made ALL the more clear when she becomes Cosmos) is that Serenity honestly just becomes VERY hands-off. Outside of healing she never gets involved in a fight because she knows she's vastly OP (sans people like Death Phantom).

So for Serenity, I think your example would work fine. Sora would be able to access those wings so long as Serenity is in Empatheias. Again, I'm not sure about long-range distance, so if we want to be fair we could say Sora could still have access, but it might its own limit and not last as long because the connection between them is weaker. That distance could be if Serenity was in Verens and Sora was in another Arehtei's domain. And should Serenity ever leave Empatheias completely, those shared powers are gone—the characters remaining wouldn't have them anymore.
And of course the powers themselves have to be reasonable!
Healing: That is actually about the number we were thinking of, so that works out fine!
