Karura --named for the enormous divine bird guardian-- is a ship to hold a generation. Moving between star systems, it offers its residents employment, adventure and a place to call home.
The ones who join Karura on its flight are those who seek a life beyond that found on a single planet. Some wish to extend their reach beyond a few office walls, others yearn to be the first to see something new while still more just want to find people like themselves. These are the lifeblood of Karura that call the ship their family.
With stars set between yawning voids of nothingness, Karura’s family are here for the long haul. Very few passengers can come and go regularly and all are committed to building their lives within the belly of the massive spaceship.

[OPEN LOG] White Day

There is no place more appropriate to celebrate White Day than the Ice Bar. Bartenders serve the selection of ivory cocktails in sparkling crystal glasses on chunks of ice. Platters of delicate hors d'oeuvres decorate the tables, consisting of quail eggs, miniature goat cheese quiches, oysters in their half-shell, sushi rolls and other vanilla coloured tasters. Origami trees boast flowers of white chocolate truffles wrapped in paper that can be unravelled to reveal your fortune in romance.
Can you feel the love tonight?

[OPEN LOG] Halloween
Millions of years before humans began roaming the cosmos, the gas giant planet Tausan was scattered out of its planetary system. Without a star, the light on the rogue world faded to create a planet of perpetual night. Dark it may be, but not dead. Tausan took its moons into exile and its huge gravity flexed these rocky bodies to keep their interiors warm. Atmosphere and water persevered, along with primitive life that glowed like fireflies in the night. When the EAA discovered the largest moon, it was adopted by those looking for an alternative lifestyle in the never-ending night club. The Tausan satellite became a rave world.
Without the light of a star warn of its presence, the Karura passed too close to Tausan during Halloween. Captured by the gas giant's gravity, bridge command steered the ship into orbit around the inhabited moon. It was not Tezuka's plan to make a stop here, but you had to make the best of a situation.
Upon arriving on the moon's surface, everyone is issued with a welcome glow stick in different colours to light their way. It is time to party.

small [Event] : box in cargo bay
On the last day of the orbit around Esman, a box suddenly appears in the cargo bay, close to where Tooyama is standing:

Inside are mangled cardboard body parts and a glitter bomb.

[ooc: this is Fuji and Eiji's attempt to get imported cacti past Shishido's inspection. The hope is the resulting confusion will allow their movements to go unchallenged.]
