CANON / POWER UPDATE
Players may submit a request to change a character's canon point or power set at any time. Your character will be ported out (thanks to a "glitch") for at least 24 hours. They will then be ported back in, arriving through the Porter in Cape Canaveral with their new memories or powers.
All canon and power updates must be submitted to this page. Once you've received mod approval, please announce the update on maskormenaceooc, including the dates of your character's departure and return.
A canon update means that your character reappears with new or altered memories of their original world. There is nothing in these memories that suggests they ever left home, no evidence of their life in Mask or Menace. Their memories of their time in the game only return to them once they're ported back to Cape Canaveral. Whether or not your character's appearance changes to reflect the passage of time in their canon is up to you.
As a courtesy to avoid spoiling fellow players, a minimum of two weeks must have passed since the release of your new canon material before you can apply that material to an update.
You also have the option to rewind your character to an earlier version, exchange them for a different version (from book to TV canon, for example), or give them a hard reset. If you choose any of these options, they will permanently forget their previous experiences in Mask or Menace.

You're free to request a change to one or all of your character's powers at any time. If you didn't use all three power slots when you applied, this is also the place to request additional powers. All powers are subject to the same guidance as the application. When your character receives a power update, they'll vanish for at least 24 hours, but they won't gain any memories from their original universe (unless you're also canon updating them). They'll simply be ported into Cape Canaveral upon their return.

For example, if the Horrible Goose originally had its powerslots filled with
- HONKING
- FLAPPING
- STEALTH
but you wanted to swap the STEALTH power for an INSTANT STOLEN PICNIC power, you would list out- HONKING
- FLAPPING
- INSTANT STOLEN PICNIC
We wouldn't need you to list out details of the STEALTH power the Horrible Goose used to have.Similarly, if the Horrible Goose originally had Mind-Control Honking and Long Distance Honking under the HONKING power umbrella, but you wanted to drop Mind-Control Honking because you found the Horrible Goose was just too powerful with mind-controlling powers, all you'd have to do is leave that power out when listing all the powers under the HONKING umbrella.
Hopefully this helps! Let us know if you need any further clarification.

For meta reasons, the 20th is also the cut-off date for characters to port back in with those powers as the Porter will be temporarily shut down for the rest of the month. Returning port-ins (hiatus/canon update/power update ones) resume on the 1st of January!
