THE L.T.O CALENDAR

LTO, or Limited Time Only Items are expensive artifacts with unique properties, usually based around key items in the Dragon Ball series. These items give one-of-a-kind effects ranging from giving you free techniques, special variants, or just looking really cool. However, as their name implies, these mighty items are only available for purchase in the XP shop at certain, limited times.

Most LTO items are Seasonal. Seasonally-scheduled LTOs are available for three months, and rotate with the coming of each season. They are added into the XP shop on the first day of the season's respective month, and removed on the first day of the following season for the next batch. However, some LTO items only come Monthly. Unlike Seasonal LTOs, they're only available for a single month instead of three. You can see exactly what LTOs are seasonal or monthly, how much XP they will cost, what they do, and see exactly when they are available on this LTO calendar. Events are also given notice on the calendar. While events will have little innate bearing on overarching IC plots, they can offer opportune or fun chances- whether it be a sale in the XP shop, or some optional holiday-themed effects to threads, or something else.

However, sometimes NEW LTOs (or events) will be created and thus added to the calendar. In these cases, the finalized version of the item will always be announced with at least a month's notice in advance, regardless of if they are Season or Month-based. In addition, it is possible that we may eventually have many LTOs possibly bloating the calendar as time passes. Sometimes we may take an item off the calendar completely for a year if this becomes the case, but every one of these items will return someday.

The calendar's purpose is to allow members to better anticipate the LTO schedule so they can work out if they would like to try and attain one of the items, as well as allow more transparency and advance notice on behalf of the staff team. The LTO calendar is as follows:

SPRING

^{March, April, May}

SUMMER

^{June, July, August}

FALL

^{September, October, November}

WINTER

^{December, January, February}

	Hermit's Sunglasses ^{Seasonal \|\| 25,000 XP}A pair of antique sunglasses, said to have been donned by martial arts masters. The confidence boost from the sheer snazziness of these shades allows you to add any respective variant to a non-SIG/ULT/Trained attack or barrier in your arsenal! Usable once per thread.
	Blood Ruby Pendant ^{Seasonal \|\| 20,000 XP} A refined Blood Ruby tied on a string. Its energy radiates stronger than a normal Blood Ruby, powering the wearer. Itboosts your offensive PL by +x1 for the entire thread! This base offensive boost increases by +x1 for every 200,000 base PL the user has. This also provides you the ability to unlock your transformations 10,000 PL earlier than normal, granting them a +x1/-x1 effect when coupled with the pendant. This effect can only occur for the pendant's original owner.
	Major Time Ring ^{Seasonal & AL \|\| 25,000 XP} Once per thread, you may use a 400% ‘Solar Flare’ technique for the purposes of escaping a thread for no KP. It may be used in a DE, but if you do, it cannot be used in the next DE you participate in. Its use in a DE recharges after the second DE. You can only purchase this item while dead.

	Bansho Fan ^{Seasonal \|\| 25,000 XP} A mystical fan capable of blowing incredibly powerful gusts of wind, as if it were magic. Allows the wielder to use one free B1 or SU1 Solar Flare technique on either themselves or an ally, once per thread. Bleedthrough for the B1 goes to the wielder.
	Destron Machine ^{Seasonal \|\| 20,000 XP} A compact machine that you can fasten onto your arm, back, or wherever else. It takes in oxygen and corrupts it into vile Destron Gas that saps away at a foe's stamina when breathed in. This allows you to make Destron-Variant offensive attacks that follow usual Variant rules in terms of PL, your foe treat their transformation as -x1 for the post of impact if the attack hits, should they be within 60% of your PL! Modifier debuffs don't stack.
	Energy Absorber ^{Seasonal & AL \|\| 25,000 XP} Allows you to attack an opponent with a 66% technique for calculation purposes. If it hits, you steal 1 KP from their pool and add it to yours. This may send them into negatives, but they do not suffer damage due to this. You can only purchase this item while dead.

	Z-Sword ^{Seasonal \|\| 25,000 XP} An old, durable sword infused with immense amounts of ki. This allows the user to buff any non-signature offensive attack or barrier's PL by +33%, once per thread. This boost CANNOT stack with the Arm Blaster.
	Pirate Cruiser ^{Seasonal \|\| 20,000 XP} A colossal space-travelling vessel. It's complete with everything a ship could ask for! It seats 6 player characters, and has the effects of both the Stealth Upgrade and Turbo Drive items. Once per month, you can opt to reduce your travel time between planets to one hour.
	Jack-O-Nimbus *^{!! OCTOBER \|\| 20,000 XP !!}* A strange, orange-colored Nimbus cloud. It almost sounds like it's laughing as it moves. Allows the holder to fly!
	Dimension Sword ^{Seasonal & AL \|\| 25,000 XP Twice per thread, you may add Homing OR Piercing and +33% PL to a non-SIG, non-trained, non-ULT technique. Also counts as a Devil Lamp for Demon Realm, Mt. 5 Element, and Devil Lamp-dependent transformations or traits. You can only purchase this item while dead.}

	Senzu Bonsai ^{Seasonal \|\| 20,000 XP} A tiny Senzu plant that needs lots of catering and watering. The beans are a lot smaller than usual, though... This allows you to heal yourself or another person for 100% of their PL once per thread!
