WELCOME TO NOUVEAURTH

"A new earth, reborn after the tides washed over society, leading it to a watery grave. There's less land, and people now live on boats for their day to day lives. The moon pulls the tides as these beastmen and animen try to survive." CAPRI DIEM: SHOOT YOUR SHOT

"Shoot, sailor! Or die trying!" That's the only kind of advice for the salt weather creatures of the sea. In this society, humanoids with animal features brave the seas. They alone are trying to recover the lost technology of the generation before them. However, the moon's activity grows more active and the tides are becoming more and more destructive.

Shoot your shot? Would be easy if you had any bullets. Maritime tragedy is just a stone toss away.

However, such grand ideas can never be realized by girls who were nepo hired aboard a cruise ship.

Nona No Name, 28 year old delivery squirrel girl, was rescued from her destitute life to now live one amongst the rich and famous. She works aboard the new and upcoming ship, the LifeTree Casino under the Yggdrasil Logistics & Labor Co. However, this new life has a new family, and new petty secrets to uncover as the ships most nosy employee. Is it worth climbing to the top, or will the rotten roots leave everything toppling over before you get there?

Lydia Lambda, 29 year old lamb secretary, left her abusive family life to start anew aboard the Arc-En-Ciel, another large cruise casino. She's on a trail to find the sibling who left her to rot with familial abuse. Lydia must brace herself, and the waves that comes with people who simply want to drown their sorrows. When it comes to first impressions, you only get one shot.

The Bicorne, a something year old mythical runaway holds the secrets to the ships and to the girls, both hiding and revealing secrets that twist and confine their own life. These ships are tied by secrets, and they will hang by their secrets if need be.

Hi and welcome to @sheepuns / @sheepasture 's main story project, Capri Diem: Shoot Your Shot blog. It is my maritime casino mystery story with animal-people hybrids. It's a multimedia project but mostly will be written with an occasional visual novel here and there.

In context, this story involves a lot of criminals so these themes can range from just mentions in passing to explicit descriptions.

can i say shes my favorite? no??? a brand new ref for lambda! wahooey

[sheepasture]

A friend asked a question so I felt like adding to it under this post would be rad "anyone's horns in particular or just whatver ones she could grab thatd fit" Yes indeed! So the Lambda family is different breeds and generations mixed in but the current era that Lambda resides from are Hebridean so most her specific family has four horns. She took a pair from a late father (he wasn't really present but he was alive) so they aren't noticeable seen as "missing" since a pair is there. Only those who go looking specifically for his information would notice, but he was never popular nor had good wool so nobody cares.

---(talking about one of the other timelines with Lambda---

In the timeline where Lambda never goes to the ship immediately to strangle her sibling Bicorne, she continues to be raided under the restrictive hand of Diantha (biological grandmother but raised with her as her mom) and Lambda takes Diantha's horns as her own when she starts running the family.

---about tagging sys characters--- I think I'm going to use their full names since I use things interchangeably. Some people have codenames but they aren't always being used in the current timeline so its better for clarity. I'll make another post talking about everyone's names.

Starting with Lambda, im either thinking that she was born with stunted horns or no horns at all.

She feels insecure about this fact. The Lambda family, when people die ~~they are killed~~ their horns are removed and hung in a hall to display their family tree.

Having no horns/little horns is seen as inferior so Lambda stole a pair off the wall and wears those.

Meanwhile I'm actually thinking Bicorne cuts off their horns for convenience so I can imagine the siblings having that conflict of the importance of cultural horns.

I will have sporadic access but i have been typing ideas

Rambles beneath but basically giving everyone a code name that I call them (and then getting used to everyone's full names)

"hey diddle diddle/the cow jumped over the moon"

Something with moons, something with chichevache

Like everyone having flexible names, deciding (?) if Chiche and Carmen are related.

THINKING maybe Chiche is the merc name, and her Navis name is different?

Maybe Chiche is a different animal interpretation? Makes me want to think of a different name for her

Character List (Again)

New oc update. The Ygg gives everyone codenames for protection. Will be changing characters names so they all fit the theme.

Amelia/Millie > Ambrosia

Carmen > Sacremento

Sarnai > Chichevache

Aeluin > Code Bleu

Winifred > Crescent

Bell > Copium/Mariana

Corine > Bicorne

Sofia > Absinthe

Lydia > Lambda

Lucia > Moonshine

Nona > Nona

Tuesdaye > Tungsten

Crescent + Ambrosia: Wise Magic Maker, Blessed and Cursed

Bicorne + Ambrosia: Whipped creationist, ends up only issuing bitter words of caution

Nona + Ambrosia: An annoyance, but eventually is fond of

Start game ships: Carfia, Moonshine>Lambda=Tungsten, Bichiche

End Game: Carluin, Bellfia, Bichiche, LydLucTues
