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.

yeah it's probably going to end terriblyWHICH MEANS that even though he'd been starting to show obvious signs of siding with the network, he's now going to go completely in the opposite direction. He's going to try to remain anonymous on the network and help however he can, but he's going to withdraw a lot from it. He'll probably try to contact anyone who already knows he's a cop to warn them about it, especially people he's friends with.
It's highly likely that he'll be involved in the arrests of network members, either by being assigned to it or by catching someone who's being dumb and... being a jerk and bringing them in. Or if, by some miracle, someone wants to volunteer to be arrested, which he'd prefer but doubts would happen.
SO YES. Anyone who wants to get their character arrested interested in having Nick bring them in, either because Nick's a jackass or because they volunteered?

Ray technically assaulted Xander in a mall bathroom and then kidnapped his unconscious body. He also has a habit of breaking traffic laws like a boss so IDK MAN if you need a reason to arrest his ass we will come up with REASONS dude.
no subject
Would Ray go along with an arrest, or would he put up a fight? They already know about each other being on the network, so Nick couldn't just pull 'random cop arresting some asshole' XD

If nothing else, we can always go with Nick being with one of the sniffer dog cops and passing by too close to Ray or something like that.
no subject
That works for me, Ray's not the most careful person ever so he would totally do something stupid like get too close to a freaky dog without even thinking about it.
no subject
Sounds good! I'll go let the mods know, because I'm awesome at pestering them with questions.
