One of the four main characters of RSPK. Sylvane is a water/wind hybrid who can use the mysterious seventh element: Lunar magic. She is beautiful and kind, but somewhat aloof and not very social compared to most. She feels a deep-seated compassion for Cryogen, who is a childhood friend of hers and will eventually become her lover. Her psychic powers are very strong, and she knows the inner workings of the heart and mind. She's also very intelligent, though she doesn't put it to the same uses as her mentor and best friend Meristem.

Sylvane is confused about where her Lunar powers came from; that her mother Aphros also uses Lunar magic suggests that heredity may have something to do with it, but she is beginning to believe she may not be Larandan. The fact that her class changes give her radically new bodies seems to support this, though she's hardly the only character this happens to.

Sylvane's strongest points are her kind heart and her ability to live in harmony with the forces of nature and magic. She is strongly telepathic and a powerful magic user, and possesses a serene worldview that calms those around her. Her loving, feminine, powerful persona is exactly the thing Cryogen needs, but she worries that she will not get to him in time. She makes a brave rescue to save him from his self-made shell of ice...and from his own tormented, anguished mind.
Sylvane is probably one of the more sane characters in RSPK.

A dead drop is a location used to secretly pass items between two people, without requiring them to meet.

Spies have been known to use dead drops, using various techniques to hide the items and to signal that the drop has been made. Drug dealers use this as well.

A common place is to duct tape the item to the underside of a toilet cover in a public restroom.

A signal is sometimes used as well to indicate there is something to pickup, like a pile of stones in a certain formation. After checking the drop the signal is removed.
"The dead drop is the restroom toilet at the Gulf station at the corner of Commercial Ave. and Georges Rd."

No Surprises Wedding

A "No Surprises Wedding," or NSW, is a wedding invitation designation that tells attendees that there can be no unplanned announcements, engagements, events or speeches at the wedding - all actions must be pre-approved by the couple. Anyone who performs an unapproved "surprise" will be asked to leave the wedding early.

This designation comes from Reddit, where so many stories of bad wedding behavior indicated a need to communicate expectations for the wedding behavior of attendees.
You are cordially invited to the nuptials of Brian and Tom on October 31 at noon.

Please note that this wedding is child-free (under 10) and a No Surprises Wedding (NSW). Reach out to wedding planner Sami Smith to request approvals or exceptions; please note that exceptions will be rare. Limited child care for under-10s will be available. All approvals will be noted and included in planning. Unapproved, or surprise exceptions, will result in guests being asked to leave.
