They're here,, The bbys,,, Wanted to have them all in one post so they're easier to find, now with slightly tweaked designs!

Blueberry Velvet Cookie (they/them): Bold and charismatic, mischievous nature but a protector at heart; won't hesitate to stand up for their siblings or guardian. Eldest child. Always dressed like they're ready for a performance—be it singing or juggling on top a beach ball, they're an ace of the theater scene! Even if Blue doesn't remember his face, has heard a lot about Gingerbrave and he's like their hero, having sugar skull earrings in his honor.

Kosher Cookie (he/him): Quite intelligent for his age, but with a great ego of a typical child; will still go along with his siblings antics despite his best efforts to remain the "logical" one. Second oldest. An aspiring inventor, has plans to study magichanical engineering abroad in the Crème Republic when he gets older but for now he's happy in the Cookie Kingdom with his family. Has sensitive dough and so wears full-body clothes to shield from the sun rays.

Muscovado Cookie (she/him): A ball of pure energy and unfiltered sugar optimism, but also a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to her hobbies. Middle child. Has an interest in costume making and has been learning Weaving Magic at school to create the best clothes possible, as well as learning hand sewing from Sugar Coat Cookie and Mont Blanc Cookie. Loves the Hollyberry Kingdom's fashion and wants to visit someday.

Amaranth Cookie (she/her): A cookie of few words, but it's actually very attentive of others despite her resting neutral face. First youngest. An affinity for cooking, always insist on wearing her chef hat from a toy kit she got everywhere, even when not in the kitchen. Has a pet cheese mouse named Manouri who enjoys traveling from her hat. Some find it difficult to decipher her emotions, but her siblings always knows what she's thinking of without her having to say much.

Adobo Cookie (she/her): Shy and easily scared, but with a big heart. The youngest of the bunch. Loves to draw and art in general, soothing for her anxiety and distraction from her weak immune system; always carrying her bird backpack full of art supplies in case inspiration calls. Has a big collection of plushies, including one that resembles her guardian's ferret form.

DisneySea: (Part 5) Mythical Marina

For our fifth stop, we've come to Mythical Marina!

Here, guests find themselves flung back in time to Ancient Greece, when the country was still split into city-states and the mighty gods of Mount Olympus were still worshipped.

Making up the port of call is a seaside city-state on the coast of The Mediterranean Sea (drawing heavy inspiration from real-life city-states like Athens, Corinth and Sparta)

Travel along stone-paved pathways accompanied by olive and cypress trees, marble statues, and classic architecture of the Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian orders.

The centerpiece of this land is The Temple of Poseidon, a slightly-sized down replica of the real-life temple of the same name found in Cape Sounion.

https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/rc64vfugnxrfwc9n0345u/odysseus_by_montjart-daqibnn.jpg?rlkey=otcuas0hjfl4m15w5bc6atz9f&raw=1

This land offers two attractions for guests to experience, both of which based off the expansive lore of Greek mythology.

The first one is The Odyssey.

On this Audio-Animatronic ride, guests get the chance to experience the legendary poem by Homer.

Just like in the poem, the story sees the war hero Odysseus embarking on a voyage just after The Trojan War to his home Ithaca, where his wife Penelope and their son Telemachus are awaiting his return.

But little did he know that his voyage would be easier said than done.

As through his journey, Odysseus finds himself having to endure the wrath of the god of the sea himself, Poseidon, and facing the many hardships he's placed on his path.

This includes getting captured by Calypso (who wanted to make him her lover), braving through a massive storm casted by Poseidon himself, being tempted by the food of The Lotus Eaters, battling the cyclops Polyphemus, escaping the cannibal-like Laestrygonians, avoiding Circe and her army of pig-men, navigating through the depths of the underworld to meet with the blind prophet Tiresias, ignoring the luring song of the sirens, and fighting the sea monster and living whirlpool Scylla and Charybdis.

The second attraction is Journey of the Hippocampus.

On this indoor rollercoaster ride, guests can hope aboard cars modeled after the legendary sea creature the ride is named after.

Soon enough, guests find themselves zooming through the underwater world of The Mediterranean, encountering coral reefs, sunken ruins, shipwrecks, and even volcanic chasms.

In terms of dining, this land has one restaurant: The Olive Tree.

Set in a replica of an ancient Greek courtyard with a massive olive tree at the center of it, this restaurant serves dishes dating back to the days of Ancient Greece such as wine-dipped barley bread, teganites, Greek salad (made with lettuce, asparagus, cucumber, onion, olives, olive oil and vinegar), a cheese and olive platter (consisting of feta, kasseri, kefalograviera, manouri, graviera, and kefalotyri), figs, a nut mix (consisting of pistachios, walnuts, almonds, sesame and chestnuts), a Greek fruit salad (made with figs, pomegranates, apples, pears, cherries and grapes), roasted fish, fried fish skewers, roasted octopus, fried squid, lentil soups, pastilli, a choice of either honey-drizzled cheese, figs or olives, and a wide selection of wine to choose from.

For shopping, we have The Agora. 

Named after and set in a replica of the ancient Greek marketplace of the same name, this establishment sells items such as Greek dolls, Greek Orthodox Iconography, leather goods, and evil eye charms.

There's also two smaller shops within this massive shop.

First there's Θησαυροί της Ελλάδα�� (“Treasures of Greece”), which sells Greek masks, carvings, statuettes, paintings, pottery, miniature mosaics and stories on scrolls, and Νέκταρ των Θεών (“Nectar of the Gods”), which sells food items, like Kalamata olives, olive oil, and traditional Greek spices.

As for entertainment, there's The Players of Dionysus.

Based in a replica of an ancient Greek theater, this group performs somewhat condensed versions of classic Greek theater productions such as Medea, Oedipus Rex, The Frogs, and even Disney's very own adaptation of Hercules.

And finally for character greetings, we have Hercules, Pegasus, Philoctetes, Megara, Hades, Zeus and Hermes.

I love my job 😚 One of my Cucks paid for us to go to our favourite upscale brunch spot up in Boston (Krasi), and we went WILD. It's almost our anniversary so we really celebrated hard. I got to leave a giant tip too which felt really good. They treat us so well, they're super mindful of allergies, and they are SO welcoming. And the food is absolutely wonderfully delicious. My favourite dish of the morning was definitely the prasopita, all of my favourite things in one pie!! I'm so grateful I get to spend my time like this!!!

Os convidados chegaram à ilha ao longo do dia. Foram recebidos por funcionários uniformizados, que os conduziram aos chalés designados. Todos nomeados em referência à cultura grega, com arquitetura moderna, piscina privativa e varanda com vista para o mar. Sobre a cama, um kit de boas-vindas os esperava: uma garrafa de vinho local, o mapa da ilha e um convite impresso com a programação da noite.

Com o entardecer, as luzes da mansão Kyríakis se acenderam. O jardim foi preparado para o coquetel de abertura. As mesas dispostas em torno da piscina, os sofás de linho claro e as tochas acesas criavam um ambiente discreto, mas elegante. Um quarteto de cordas tocava, enquanto garçons circulavam com bandejas de drinks autorais, como o "Ouzo Spritz", o "Figueira Tônica" e uma versão cítrica de Negroni.

Leonidas Kyríakis apareceu quando o céu já escurecia. Vestia um terno de linho escuro, sem gravata. Subiu os degraus do terraço e, com uma taça de vinho na mão, dirigiu-se aos convidados reunidos.

"Sejam bem-vindos a Skorpios." disse. "Esta ilha é minha casa. Mais que isso, é meu último projeto. Tudo aqui foi preparado com cuidado para recebê-los." Ele olhou para os rostos à sua frente por um momento antes de continuar. "Passei a vida construindo algo que não quero deixar ao acaso. Vocês estão aqui porque representam o que restou de famílias importantes. Algumas ainda resistem, outras nem tanto. Todas carregam história." Fez uma pausa breve, sem alterar o tom. "Não tenho herdeiros, mas tenho critérios. O que deixarei para trás precisa ir para alguém que prove que merece. Vocês não vieram como convidados. Vieram como candidatos." Fez uma pausa breve, sem alterar o tom. "Durante as próximas semanas, tudo será observado. Aproveitem o tempo, conheçam o lugar, façam o que acharem necessário. Mas lembrem-se: ninguém vai ganhar só por ter um sobrenome." Ergueu a taça, firme. "Que esta noite marque o início de algo memorável. Boa sorte a todos."

O jantar teve início logo depois. O menu foi assinado por um chef com estrela Michelin, especializado em culinária grega contemporânea. A refeição começou com uma seleção de mezedes reinterpretados: folhas de parreira recheadas com arroz de açafrão e nozes tostadas, carpaccio de polvo com azeite de manjerona, e espuma de tzatziki servida sobre pão pita crocante.

Para o prato principal, os convidados podiam escolher entre três opções:

Lombo de cordeiro grelhado com crosta de ervas, servido sobre purê de fava santorinha, azeite trufado e redução de syrah.

Cherne ao forno, com crosta de pistache, legumes assados em azeite de Kalamata e emulsão de limão siciliano.

Galette de berinjela e queijo manouri, com camadas finas de abobrinha e pimentão, acompanhada de tomate confit e coulis de hortelã (opção vegetariana).

Para encerrar, a sobremesa foi apresentada em três tempos:

Panacota de iogurte grego com geleia de rosas.

Loukoumades (bolinhos fritos com mel e canela) servidos com sorvete de mastika.

Figoss frescos recheados com amêndoas e mergulhados em vinho doce.

Cada prato era acompanhado por sugestões de vinhos produzidos na própria ilha, selecionados para harmonizar com os sabores locais e o clima da noite.

INFORMAÇÕES OOC

oi, galera! então, esse jantar é só um semi-eventinho pra iniciar as nossas interações. não tem nada de complexo acontecendo ainda, é mais pra todo mundo se localizar, sentir o clima da ilha e começar a se conectar.

o jantar de boas-vindas foi servido na área externa da mansão, à beira da piscina. tem música ao vivo, comida boa, drinks circulando e bastante espaço pra conversas de todos os tipos. a ideia é que vocês consigam interagir entre si livremente, de boas.

eu fiz uma pastinha no pinterest só pra dar uma ideia da decoração, quem tiver curiosidade pode clicar aqui pra dar uma olhadinha lá!

ao longo da semana, eu vou lançar uma task bem simples, mas bem legal. e o resultado dela vai estar diretamente ligado ao quanto os personagens prestaram atenção (ou não) uns nos outros durante esse jantar, então é legal aproveitar agora pra observar, puxar assunto e se conhecer melhor.

no mais, boas-vindas! qualquer dúvida é só me chamar, e espero que, acima de tudo, a gente se divirta muito nesse rpg!
