Fuchsia Town

A Wiki for Fuchsia Town, a Golden Sky Stories game run by Hammel.

Characters

PCs

Teru - Getsuya

• Getsuya playing Teru the Rabbit

Purin - Medley

• Medley playing Purin the Tanuki AKA Pudding the Tanuki, the PRINCE of DARKNESS. Also Puu.

Appearance: As a tanuki, Puu just about average, with a brown coat with darker and lighter bands running along the back and the face. The one distinctive thing is that the dark ring around his right eye is distinctively flared, so that it looks like there are little dark streaks emanating outwards from the eye. In his human form, he's a boy that looks about ten with short black hair, a medical eyepatch over his left eye, a fancy monocle over his right eye, and a demon prince's cloak (so he says, but it looks like a red tablecloth or something) worn over a t-shirt and shorts. He also holds the stem of his tanuki leaf between his teeth instead of putting the leaf on his head because he's cool like that, except when he doesn't.

Stats:

• Henge - 3
• Animal - 1
• Adult - 2
• Child - 2

Powers:

• Money (2) - make leaves, acorns, and so on appear to be money. Only works in the evening or at night, and the appearance will change back at dawn.
• Bogey (8) - change into a monstrous form to scare humans. People and henge who see this will be Surprised. +1 to Henge for causing Surprise.
• Become Anything (8/16) - turn into some solid, nonliving, natural object. May Surprise people upon changing back. For 16 points, can become something big enough to hold several people.
• Copy (10) - Change into a copy of a person you know. If talking to someone who knows the copied person, beat their Adult attribute/connection with the person with a Henge check or they'll realize you're a fake.
• Tanuki Drumming (12) - in the evening or at night, call tanuki friends to drum on your bellies. Everyone's Adult attribute becomes 0 and electronics/civilized devices stop working until the end of the scene.
• Dream Vision (16) - surround one person and enchant their senses with an illusion until the scene ends or you cancel the illusion. The target must beat your Henge attribute with a Henge or Adult check to dispel the illusion.

Weaknesses/Additional Powers:

• Cowering/Swell (8) - you'll Faint whenever Surprised, but you can swell up to get +2 to Henge for surprise checks if the targets have not seen this before.
• Gullible/Carelessness (6) - you'll never suspect you're being lied to, but you can grant everyone who sees your clumsiness (but only up to 3 narrator characters) can get 2 points of Dreams if you've gained Dreams for being clumsy.
• Carried Away/Tanuki Dance (12) - you must always attempt a task when flattered, but you get to do a dance that makes everyone drop their plans and laugh, gaining 3 points of Dreams, if they don't make an Adult check of at least 4.

When Puu the tanuki first realized he was a henge, he was quite chuffed. Now that he had a human form, and many others, he of course had to go to observe the humans and figure out how they acted. And since it was mostly the small humans that came around to the forest, those were the humans Puu observed most, and after a while he came to a singular conclusion: the humans were beings possessed with awesome powers. Many times did he hear these small humans proclaim their peerless mastery over spell and blade as they did battle, sometimes against each other, sometimes against unseen evil forces. A select few among them even revealed their possession by demons from another realm or descent from ancient magical royalty from one place or another, or other such things as that. At first he was a little frightened by these acts, after a while he couldn't help but be drawn in to their unbelievable acts, and occasionally even came across some of the tomes that they left behind that related many tales of such powers. While he couldn't really see these epic battles occurring and everyone was pretty alright coming out of them, in fact seemingly having a lot of fun, as a thinking tanuki's tanuki Puu understood that this was because his henge powers were still too meager to comprehend the reality-rending forces that were surely being unleashed before him.

Puu did find it odd that as the small humans became less small, they started showing up at the forest less and less, and even when they did they seemed to not have the same mastery over their powers as they once had. And when he observed the big humans, they mostly didn't seem to have any powers at all! That was very strange. But then, one summer evening, as he chanced by a rather exciting human gathering near the river, he witnessed the greatest display of powers he had seen yet: brilliant explosions rippling through the night sky in every possible color, with heaven and earth shaking from the sound, and the momentary light revealing the happiness on the faces of the onlookers. He felt his heart shake with each burst of light and was enamored, and he figured that the reasons why the bigger humans didn't seem to display any powers was because they were storing their magic up for this. He soon learned that the humans demonstrated this magic several times a year, and he went to watch as many times as he could, enjoying the sight of the dazzling magic as well as the liveliness of the human gatherings.

However, as time went by, the gatherings became less lively and happened less often, and so the displays of magic became less grand over time. That probably stood to reason, since there were fewer humans around to contribute their power, but that didn't make it less disappointing. Puu knew he had to act, and so adopted an identity so he could more closely fit in with human society. He has since taken on the moniker of the DAI AKUMA, YAMI NO OU, THE PRINCE OF DARKNESS (it must be said like that, for the effect). That's a mouthful, so others tend to call him just Purin for short, or his usual name of Puu. But regardless of what he is called, Purin/Puu now places his henge powers in the service of restoring the magic of Fuchsia Town to its former glory.

(Sorry about that, I got banned. Hope you guys can continue the game. Have fun.)

Fuchsia Town

Travelers used to come from all over as tourists and to see the famous ancient cherry blossom tree. Over time, as people moved away and the town became more of a backwater the tree slowly wilted until finally becoming dormant. Now, the town has been all but forgotten and people are still moving away. But the henge, all of various types, have always been here and will likely always remain.

Sites

Abandoned Train Station

The steam train used to make daily visits carrying loads of passengers to and from the town. But now it is boarded up and overgrown.

The Goddess Fountain

Long ago an artist and sculptor visited the town and designed a fountain dedicated to the local goddess in her more human form. This is the Goddess of the Tree, and the townsfolk still lovingly take care of her fountain despite the hardships they have faced.

Abandoned Areas of Town

Several boarded up homes and businesses dot the town and many of these buildings are rumored to be haunted.

Tanuk’s General Store

The old sign on the storefront is emblazoned with the mythical Tanuki, the mascot of this general store. Old Man Kosuke and his family has run this shop since it first opened, and the townsfolk get much of what they need here.

Mistress Nodoka’s Diner

This was once a popular restaurant for tourists, but now only locals come here. She knows how to make a wide variety of cuisine and her cakes are famous in town.

Economy

The town was once a tourist town, but since the tourists have stopped coming the town has heavily relied on agricultural pursuits. Milk is the top export, followed by rice, wheat, and fruits and vegetables.
