Activity Check
Neon Requiem uses a modified "check-in" activity check. There are no comment counts for activity check. Instead, your AC is in the form of a report written by your character and submitted to their caseworker at the Bureau of Soul Affairs. (If your character would absolutely refuse to do this, AC can be written by their caseworker instead!) This report is a brief summary of or thoughts on your character’s activities of the month, to be added to their file for consideration in Soul Judgment.
This can be as long or short as you like, in any format you please. Your character can attempt to mislead or lie. However, if they do lie, the truth of their activities will appear as a magical addendum at the bottom of the page (because we really do want to know what they’re up to!) Don't worry: there will be no consequences for what your character confesses in AC.
AC is due by midnight EST on the last day of each month. Failure to post will result in your character being swept from the game.
If circumstances require that you take a hiatus, you are excused from AC for the requested calendar month. You may only take one hiatus per three month period. (EX: if you hiatus in January, you must complete AC for February and March.)
If you are in need of a longer hiatus or you have special circumstances of any kind, please let the mods know and we'll be happy to work something out with you.
For new characters: Reply beneath your handle with your character's name and canon in the subject line. All of your monthly AC will replied to this comment (see example below.)
For all characters: Each month, reply to your character's comment, write the month in the subject line, and write your AC in the comment. You can do this in any format you like, but here's a nice standard form to make things simple.

MONTHLY SOUL REPORT
As requested, here is my monthly activity report:
(What follows is a six page summary of Joseph's activities since arriving in Limbo, in excruciating detail, with dates attached. Highlights include joining the police force again, the brawl at the beach, reuniting with Sebastian and both of them being appointed detectives, vague allusions to "personal activities," his exemplary efforts at work, and a full confession of his little episode on Thursday the 12th.)
I hope you will find this satisfactory.
- Detective J. Oda
(There comes a reply approximately 15 minutes after it's sent: Oleander has corrected exactly one comma misuse in the first paragraph that is actually a matter of stylistic choice and not a grammatical error.)

MONTHLY SOUL REPORT
(A bulleted list, with mildly less detail put into it than last month. Still way more work than is probably necessary for this. It discusses Joseph's participation in the career fair (without mentioning HOW) along with some of the cases he's worked on this month. All are carefully arranged and dated with impeccable grammar.)
Thank you,
Detective J. Oda
(A reply comes about 16 minutes after it's submitted.)
Thanks Barky! ;)

MONTHLY SOUL REPORT
(What follows is a terse, carefully worded summary of Joseph's activities for the month of January. It skims over in clinical detail his kidnapping as part of Project Widowmaker and the aftermath of that.
Then at the end, extremely clinical:)
I am no longer affiliated with the Requiem Police Department.

MONTHLY SOUL REPORT RE: J. Oda
Hey Boss,
I was troubled that I didn't receive my typical report from former Detective Oda this month. Instead of his usual detailed list it was a far more perfunctory summary. Furthermore, it appeared to be written specifically to avoid his usual minor grammatical issues and thus I was unable to issue any corrections. I believe he is still reeling from the loss of his job last month and as such is not particularly in the mood for his usual level of diligence.
Terribly sorry for the inconsistency on my end. You know how seriously I take this job. Will ensure that I have something to report next month!

MONTHLY SOUL REPORT RE: J. ODA
Hey Boss,
I'd like to apologize for another lackluster report on my end. Mr. Oda submitted another bulleted list and the only corrections I was able to suggest were that he change the shape of his bullets. He responded with a smiley face emoticon.
Can we maybe keep a closer eye on him next month? This sort of flippance is very unlike him and I'm concerned.

MONTHLY SOUL REPORT RE: J. ODA
Splendid news, boss! Mr. Oda has applied for the pre-permit business paperwork! I have submitted all 487 pages to him and he replied that he'll be filling them out as soon as possible. Per my calculations, it should take him approximately four months.
He did mention a complaint about the Primavera Orbs but I seem to have misplaced the text... probably printed it out and sent it back to him with the rest of the packet. Ah well, mea culpa!
