Plot post for July 30!

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 Vermini swarms have disappeared for the most part, and there's no sign of Vermedi either. Some characters may glimpse hairy figures in dark alleys or in sewers, but the creatures always disappear as soon as they are spotted.

• There are an unusual amount of police patrols out and about in the city. Any suspicious activity will be noticed, though there are no immediate IC consequences.

• We also have two super secret event opportunities that have not been claimed. Two commenters to the thread below will be randomly selected for this plot.




Events occurring in the immediate future;
Beginning Friday, August 2, there will be something in the water. Drinking any tap water will result in occasional, uncontrollable fits of laughter, along with re-experiencing previous Echoes, especially memory Echoes. One Echo per 8oz glass of water, and the beginning of its effects can be delayed for up to an hour. Within six hours it'll be out of the character's system completely.




Events potentially occurring;
• If PCs wish to investigate Thunder Corp this week, comment to the thread below with a general idea of how you plan to get in and what you plan to do once you're there. Details will be forthcoming on a case-by-case basis.





Potential Echo Opportunities:
• Drinking the tainted water will grant one new Echo (and only one, no matter how much water is drunk) in addition to any re-experienced ones. Uncovering any secret information about Thunder Corp will also grant an Echo. Canon parallels are a constant.

Oh my. That...is a very special outfit.

I think Suzaku needs this in his life. He's always wanted to hope actual heroes existed somewhere. Ones that weren't actually douchebags like in Greco-Roman mythology.

Although he totally won't know what to think of that suit. Is this his idea of panache?

[personal profile] ex_elude798 2013-08-01 04:56 am (UTC)(link)
Suzaku's doubtless going to drink some water. Guy with a stick up his ass having gigglefits, what can go wrong? I don't have a ton of ideas for this particular plot, but if I can hassle this guy, so much the better. Same goes for [personal profile] purity, actually.

In Suzaku's case he's going to remember killing a certain Emperor while in horrible cosplay. Why? Because he recently got an Echo about someone in that same suit shooting a girl with pink hair. And it was despair-ridden. And he's going to wonder why he'd be in the damned thing...and why there's more despair.

He needed more confusion in his life, right? Right.

Since we've got a Tavros app in and a Vriska already in game, let's see if we can get any Team Charge and Scourge shenanigans going :?

I WOULD LOVE THAT A LOT. I do not think I can explain the depth of my love for that idea.

I'm @ [plurk.com profile] lucylovespluto for plotting (feel free to add me), or here, or email!

which will of course be boiled down to 'you look familiar' haha

Miles may be drinking that water! Not so sure yet, but if he does... he'll be busting out Water element spells. Because clearly drinking tainted water lets a person start casting funky element spells /nodnod

Seriously can we get a count on all the vampires in this game who go to a Starbucks?

Because as someone who plays an eventual alien vampire who works at a Starbucks (i assume there are many in lock and it is unto a plague and so on) i really want to know this.

Fancy seeing you here. BD

If Monroe gets his smell back, still up for him contacting Nick to have his freak out?

Also down the line, I think it means he can smell which police officers are weird, so that might eventually help Nick to stop being so loyal to the police and slide over to the Numbers Club.

Awesome! I'll throw Nick into the midst of it, then! :D

Well, John and Shou up there are definitely regulars, and Alex ([personal profile] amberhearted) goes often enough that we're going to have a log there soon? I'm afraid I can't really speak for the others though.

Gosh, we should just start a vampire spreadsheet or something.
