Before you post your toplevel comment, please:
1. Check the first letter of your character's name as its written in our tags. N-Z names comment here, and A-M names go to the other post.
2. Make a note in your comment 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.

[As Doudanuki picks up the Spear, the scene will change--as will his perspective. You walk back into the parlor with the rest of the team, relieved that at least this seems to have gone right. Yet the work is hardly finished; while Mr. Rory declares his desire for a treat, you and Sara set the pieces out on the table--and that's all it takes. Now reunited in place and time, the pieces tremble and shake with power, the very power of God.

They wish to be whole. And a moment later, they are, broken bits of wood and metal reshaping themselves into their proper form with a flash.

The team looks down in wonder, but not you. You've seen this before, held the Spear whole and complete before. And when Martin reaches for it, you warn him against touching the artifact foolishly. You know how it will tempt each broken member of this team far too well.

You can already hear it calling to you, barely a whisper, but a temptation present in your mind.

It will draw on our weaknesses. Our desires. Our regrets. You speak of it's promises with caution, warning--and one voice asks what's wrong with being able to remake the world. You might have predicted as much from Mick. He's long made clear his desire to act for himself first, regardless of what anyone else things.

He's an arsonist and a thief, after all. Has been from the start.

Absolute power corrupts, you counter, regardless of intention. It's why you had attempted to destroy the Spear, going so far as to scatter it through time--but before you can finish, Mick's got his gun out, shooting flames at the Spear, never mind that you're aboard the ship.

Never mind that it would be a useless effort.

Fortunately nothing is set on fire--including, predictable, the Spear. You speak of the effort it took to break it before. Numerous explosives, you say, your annoyance clear. Then, however, Amaya points out something you haven't seen.

A phrase. You stare in surprise, wait for the words to reveal themselves.

Yet before they do, Doudanuki would find himself once more in the parlor he first entered.]
