PLOT POST FOR APRIL 16TH

[theearth]

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 I 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;

• The Thunder Corporation's Snake Statue remains up in the Dead District. The statue exudes a pseudo-Echo effect, which is undetectable to ordinary humans, trying to convince people to leave the area.

• In the same area, starting now, a large number of the huge homeless community within the Dead District will instead be found seeking new shelter. Should anyone question them, they will reveal they are being driven away by 'werewolves.' It is possible to encounter a 'werewolf' by coincidence by visiting the Dead District after dark.

---

Events occurring in the immediate future:

• Suspiciously quiet for now. The invasion forces are currently evaluating their opposition and making preparations. It won't last. Enjoy the quiet before the storm.

---

Events potentially occurring in the immediate future:

• Destroying the statue is a possibility. Doing so will shoot a pink light into the sky that will last a few seconds and set in motion a chain of events.

• Players may wish to put together a plan to investigate and potentially deal with the 'werewolves.'

---

Potential Echo Opportunities

The snake statue in the Dead District, and in police HQ, still offer one Echo at a touch. An encounter with a 'werewolf' will result in an Echo and successfully killing one will net one for everyone involved. Destroying the statue won't grant an Echo, but the events it will set in motion will. Canon parallels remain the constant option.

Please direct questions regarding these plot points to the thread below and not the post in general.

Assuming there'll be some sort of heads up when that happens? Since Bakura's checking on his "base" in abandoned land at least once a day. [Or just toss me a date for it?]

[theearth]

As I said above, you can just assume it happens not too long after it's set up - a couple of days or so. It's unlikely they'll be able to make out much of the perpetrator visually, but if you want something more detailed then, feel free to ask.

Also note that in doing this you're providing potential evidence... including the scent of anyone who touched said cameras and whatever else is left there.

Bakura had his crappy cam set up about 3 days ago, on the 3rd floor of one of the abandoned buildings that he could sneak into [via a broken window] so I assume it's already forfeit? If it's the dead of night, since it's a cheap cam, it wouldn't show anything unless there was a light source. Nothing else really there but the camera, but Bakura's scent would be all over that place since it's his "secret base" that he decided on.

[theearth]

Yeah, consider it totally ransacked and the camera taken, then.
