Before you post your topcomment, please:
1. Check the first letter of your character's name as its written in our tags. A-M names comment here, and N-Z names go to the other post.
2. Make a note in your topcomment if anything especially triggering or graphic might show up in the Calibration. If you're not sure if something's worth noting or not, we suggest listing it anyway, just to err on the side of caution.
3. Put your character's name (it can be shortened or different from the tag, this time) in the subject of your comment. This will help visitors find you easily, and help us update the list below.
4. Post your comment! It's fine if everyone's Calibrations end up looking and reading very different from one another. As long as you're having fun and following our guidelines, you're good to go. :)
5. If you have any questions or concerns during Calibrations, you are welcome to send them towards the mod team at any time, as always.

[The answer is clear enough, and he sighs]

Obviously. But what does this [He mimes the spiral in the air with his finger] mean?

[mortalcoil]

[Felix doesn't touch a thing, but apparently some combination of talking about and tracing a symbol so important to the alter disturbs something enough to have an effect.

the door behind him suddenly pops open with a horrible sound, as it immediately slams into the chain lock still keeping it from opening more than a couple of inches. the little gap is enough to allow a cold breeze to come sweeping in, immediately causing a few of the candles to sputter and die-- including the ones on the altar.

the sound of arcane chanting out in the hall creeps in after the breeze, but the doused candles are apparently of more importance to Coil. the boy ignores whatever is going on beyond the door in favor of immediately hurrying over and trying to usher Felix out of the way so he can relight them.

and while he does so, he urgently points back at the door... presumably ordering Felix to close it.]

[lord_wizard]

[In retrospect he might have realized that focusing so intently on a bit of rather prevalent symbolism would conjure something, especially in a place with at least one foot in the world of dreams. Though that's secondary to the brief jolt of surprise as the door rattles behind him.

He moves aside in a slight daze before Coil's pointed gesturing gets through. He might have tried to light the candles for the boy, but closing the door seems like the most urgent thing to attend to. He's not sure what might be on the other side, but the chill elicits memories of things best left locked away.

It isn't very graceful, but he slams both hands against the door and tries to shove it closed as quickly as he can.]

[the door resists, rattling against his hands as if demanding for someone--either the trespasser or Coil--to address it, before finally shuddering shut. the chanting continues, and Felix could probably slide the shutter away from the peephole to peer into the hall of he so chooses, but otherwise... whatever is out there is successfully shut away.]

[lord_wizard]

[Some things are better left unknown, which Felix knows, but that voice of reason is not always one he heeds. Remaining pressed against the door, he can't resist the almost morbid urge to slide away the shutter and glimpse into the darkness beyond. It's better, at least, than getting Coil to explain it]

don't feel obligated to reply if this is too old!
