The Battle for the Crook & Flail
(OOC)
This is the official RP for 2019 that takes place two years earlier.
For the RP there will be different, separate sessions. So feel free to use different sphinxes for each session, or skip a session, etc.
There are prizes for every session. Some may have more then others, but there is no special prize for being at every session... so no stress.
Nothing permanently bad will happen to your character (unless you wish for some temporary effect to stay, such as dying so you can use an undead item, etc). There will be danger and possible near death experiences, but nothing that will change anything on your sphinx. So feel free to play your favourite sphinxes in this.
Prizes will be able to be given to your other sphinxes or put into your inventory. So no worries about having to use a sphinx you want changes with... although feel free to play a sphinx you want to build up more. Of course there is nothing saying that the sphinx in the session doesn't get/use the prize themselves if you wish it.
You can play any sphinx or netjer, but other species weren't around for what happened two years ago.
I expect the character to be one who won't be purposefully disruptive to the story line. This takes away the fun from the other players who are working to solve the issues.
Why didn't your character from two years ago take place in this RP? Well... TIME PARADOX!! There are a ton of ways for your characters to have missed their opportunity, or possibly have had them wiped out from time paradox. Feel free to make up your own story of how it happened such as... they did do the quest but somehow it's all erased, they were shoved in a closet by some unknown person (there is something happening where a direct hand may have been played, but nobody was discovered/seen), they vanished from that point and didn't exist for two years with a timeline that only the current character remembers or forgot, the memories of the current sphinx changes, etc. The reasons can vary from character to character because time paradoxes are chaotic!
(ETA) If there are a lot of people in the RP I can't always personally respond to every message posted, but I'll try to at least respond to a few in between my messages.
I believe that covers the basics, so... let's get on with the RP shall we?

Ranquillane wandered through the streets of Ahket to observe the different sphinxes and netjers. Occasionally she glanced at her pocket watch, or rolled up her sleeve to read one of the many watches she wore. She grimaced.
"Dang it! Things are gettin' worse and worse. This is a real pile of cow chips." she shook her head and gave a deep breath keeping her calm.
She approaches your character with a determined and borderline grim look upon her face. "Howdy. You've probably been noticin' the time fluxes happening the last short while." she pauses "I have to break the news to you that you seem to show a great amount of chronal distortion. Something strange has happened with your personal time line that needs to be fixed, with urgency." she gave a very serious look "I know that this is a lot to take in quickly, and I reckon that you're a bit unsure because you don't really know me, but I want to help you before your time line implodes. I've pin pointed the temporal flux to two years ago and can take you back there to fix this problems."
"You're not the only one going through this and I need to be takin' a group back to the past to fix the issue since somehow you were supposed to be there, from now... if that's makin' sense." she again gives a serious but kind look knowing that it can't be easy having such news delivered.
"I know that this may be difficult to do, but are you willing to do this?" "Will you trust me?"

Sign up time!
To sign up post a picture of your sphinx or netjer (other races, such as satyrs, weren't around in that time) along with, bolded, "I trust you." or "I'll trust you." or something similar. This will be the character you will be playing for this session.
Roleplaying descriptions including the catch phrase are awesome, but not necessary for the sign up. BUT, I do expect RP posts during the game itself.
You have one hour to sign up from the time this is posted. If there aren't enough people, or somebody is 'very close' to being home I may extend the time a bit.
You may edit your post up to the time for sign ups runs out.
