Plot Post for October 23rd!
This format of plot post is designed for players to ask questions and find ways to influence the plot. Be bold and ask what you can or can't do; the worst that can happen is that we will say no. As plots in Save the Earth are not self resolving nor on a time limit, they can evolve in many ways. Although some potential outcomes are given, they are little more than suggestion and can be changed by character action. What role you take is up to you.
The post is also open for players to plot and coordinate between one another.
Events occurring currently:
• As of this morning (October 23rd, between the hours of 3:00-4:00 A.M., a large portion of the Thunder Corp.-owned Dead District has been bombed. Any living or working late in the run-down part of town or, alternatively, possessed of supernatural hearing may have been disturbed by the noise - though they’d not have been harmed by default; inhabited areas and locations such as the LSR Clinic are not within the area affected and, by now, no casualties have been reported. Entire blocks of buildings have, however, been effectively brought to the ground - and no evidence of parties involved or responsible has, as it appears, been found.
• Any snake statues left standing until today are now no longer anywhere to be found in the Dead District.
Events occurring in the immediate future:
• Thunder Corp. deny any knowledge as to the motivation or perpetrators of the bombing as they’d done in response to the rumors against them in September - officials are, however, beginning to voice suspicions to the media "putting two and two together" culminating in announcement in a formal press conference at soonest possible convenience. In line with and supporting their statements, the police department will be investing time and effort in the investigation, identification, and any necessary subsequent incarceration of “eco-terrorists” at work in Locke City.
And you can imagine what this means for you, our reincarnated heroes!
Police presence will now be increasing in all public places - in the form of increased patrols and watch over not only business and industrial areas but such populous everyday locations as Locke City High School and LCU, claimed to be in concurrent increase in drug investigations begun in August, although mercifully enough those with dogs will be few and far between.
• ...Or they will be on all days forecastable except for October 31st - Halloween. It’s a night that invites mischief and with what mischief appears to be afoot in the city nowadays, the police department will apparently see fit to keep watch over most areas in which citizen traffic is expected - shadowing residential and recreational areas as the sun goes down, with not bulbous-snouted beagles but some very ornery-looking red-eyed German Shepherds. Hopefully you’ve arranged such plans as to avoid a Halloween with hellhounds!
Events potentially occurring in the immediate future:
• Under pretense and/or motivation of current eco-terrorism and drug scares, from here on out until any further notice, depending on past actions, reincarnates will be at risk of active approach by unfriendly or dubiously-desirable parties - police and potentially otherwise.
Players of characters at the HIGHEST RISK of confrontation, investigation, or similar trouble are marked down to be contacted via surprise PM or Private Plurk within the near future to begin plotting accordingly.
If you are unsure if your character would be at high risk - or if they’ve simply done commendably at laying low and you’re open to seeing who or what they may run afoul of by happenstance - please, sign them up in the appropriate thread below this post to know to let us know you’re open to them receiving trouble, preferably with a run-down of what they’ve been involved in, where they’re visible, and/or where they might have invited or run the risk of inviting attention so we can tell you exactly what’s in store for them if chosen!
If you receive a PM or Plurk, you may opt out!
Potential Echo Opportunities
Visits to Tuning Towers will, again, continue to grant Echoes indefinitely - for anyone willing to get that close to the police! Echo opportunities are also likely to present themselves in instances of trouble that characters may wind up in in the weeks to come.
Please direct questions regarding these plot points to the thread below and not the post in general.

LCU Police

ALTERNATIVELY, Francis here has been hanging around the science department more and more despite being a theology professor, due to having several acquaintances there and wanting to help find out any scientific explanation behind the pulses. Heck, we could always coordinate a congregation of these professors meeting on campus to discuss stuff going on and them getting busted as a result.
no subject
RobertBruce is the theoretical physics professor so they'll have crossed paths, or are due to perhaps. A busted meeting would be pretty hilarious, and I do know that Bruce would want some kind of explanations to the police hanging around, and science up the pulses :Dno subject
Trying to see if I can get Ratchet, our local engineer professor, to join in on the fun! We could definitely set up a 'meeting to discuss science behind pulses' log and have the police crash the party, if enough people are interested.
no subject
That would be great. All of them sat there, trying to figure it out, then led out of lectures the next day in cuffs, or even just noted down as problem figures. Brilliant.
