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.

So timing is a wonderful thing and I sort of joined right before the finals for my summer courses. LUCKILY, I will be finished with those on Thursday. SO I'LL BE AROUND TO DO MORE THINGS.

Logan here will definitely be drinking the water. He doesn't really laugh a lot .... at all. So it'll be incredibly unsettling! I found a video reference with his voice actor and everything. It might happen at work so if anyone wants to deal with that.... yeah have at it. No previous memory echoes to re-experience, but he will be getting a new one! Not quite sure what yet, but IT WILL PROBABLY BE USELESS. Like his "British" accent.

Also, he's doing that YA book cover photoshoot thing, so there's that. He'll also probably realize at some point that oh hey he sort of knows how to use swords there, since that was his first echo and it hadn't been relevant enough to notice before. So that's a noteworthy thing.

Other than that, he works at Pizza Hut on a regular basis so that's always an option I guess! O:

Anyway, I am always open to most things. I'd love some new CR of all sorts and to get him more involved yeah!

yesssssss. i saw it mentioned when i was looking at the actual post for it and honestly that's probably one the most useful abilities/echoes he'll get. and i'd been looking for something to bring it up or something. c:

needless to say I was pretty pumped about it.

You know, Riku prolly orders pizza pretty regularly, since he's pants at cooking. :P HEY EVIL DEMONIC PIZZA GUY WHAT ARE YOU DOING AT THIS SHOOT-- oh.

Alsooo just out of curiosity, is pizza hut hiring? May know someone who might be interested. xD

Excellentttt. Meeting people through Pizza Hut is the best way obviously. AND they can be awful at cooking together. o/\o he doesn't actually cook any of the pizzas for a very good reason. AND HE IS HERE BECAUSE OF MONEY AND MAKING USE OF HIS NATURALLY HIGH CHEEKBONES tyvm.

Yes! It's just Logan and Karson and I guess some implied NPCs atm but they are probably pretty understaffed. Coughloganfiredtoomanypeoplecough.
