PLAYER PLOTS & EVENTS
| REGARDING PLAYER PLOTS |
|---|
| This page is for two types of activity: informing us of player plots which are large enough to impact the cityscape in some way (ie; not only limited to a small group of characters), and for suggesting ideas for upcoming events for all characters to take part in. It is our goal to provide players with a wide variety of events and plots, with large scale events like worldbuilding and discovery, the developing political scene in Konryu, and smaller and more localized plots like happenings in Keeliai. Our intention, metaplot allowing, is to have landfalls approximately every four to six months, balanced with smaller mini-events in between. Player plots will of course be added into that mix, with whatever dates work best for those coordinating it, save where it drastically clashes with any current event. We'll always try to work with any suggestions for timing. Additionally, the steps to submit an event suggestion are detailed at the bottom of this page. Player-run events are welcomed, on the grounds that anything impacting more than a handful of player characters is run past the mods for approval via the below directions. |
| WANT TO SUGGEST AN EVENT? |
| Player-run event suggestions are welcomed here at Tu Shanshu! Please note that these are different from the plot developments that are part of the Reward Points system. Those are for metaplot related discoveries, whereas player plots here have no AC points cost. Any event that you submit and that is approved by the mods then becomes your responsibility to facilitate during the time period assigned at the time of approval. The key duty is to provide an OOC planning post with details a few days prior to the event, then start and end OOC posts. To suggest an event, copy and complete the below form and post it in a comment on this page. The mods will discuss the details and get back to you regarding your idea. |

Instigating Character/Incident: Zatanna (somewhat)/A few Misplaced potion bottles leading to a whole lot of unintended mischeif...
Event Outline: MIS-SPELL REDUX: Early in the morning, Zatanna awaits the arrival of a few potion ingredients. She specially ordered these from one of the local shops a week back, and plans on using them later in the month. However, what she doesn't realize right away is that...there's been a major mixup, and her four potion bottles--which have yet to be fully stabilized--were accidentally switched out with several herbal tea flavorings of similar color and bottle design.
Each of these "flavorings" will be delivered to four separate tea shops, each in a different sector, to later be determined through trial and error. Any character who drinks tea flavored from one of these bottles will experience one of the following effects:
(1) ALIGNMENT SWITCH - (can be either elemental in nature or simply good/evil)
(2) NEGATION OF THE TRANSLATION MATRIX - an aura around the character means that they will suddenly understand ONLY the languages they already speak; characters who speak to them, either in person or over the network, will ONLY Hear the language being spoken by that character.
(3) TRANSFORMATION - characters can either be transformed to younger/older versions of themselves, OR can be transformed into any version of any animal (real or mythological).
(4) PERSONALITY FRACTURING - characters will be split into two or more "versions" of themselves. Can either be split into a "good" self/"bad" self, or even be split into multiple personalities based on individualized emotions. The more tea the character drinks, the more times they will be split. This one, in particular, has the added bonus of not being able to be fixed until all versions are back in the same place.
In addition, since this time the cultprit won't be immediately identified or known, there could be an element of mystery as people try to figure out what the heck is happening and why this is all going on. The potions could take effect anywhere from five minutes to half an hour after initial ingestion, deepening the mystery.
Areas Affected: The entire city of Keelai. However, because of the semi-random nature of the event, it could be entirely OPT-IN, and characters who don't want to be affected can simply not come across any of the potions.
Long-Term Impact: I suppose that would depend upon what, precisely, ends up played out with the potions, which means that such aftermaths would be mainly player-driven. Zatanna, of course, will try to keep a better eye on those potion bottles in the future once she figures out the cause of all this. And use a better courier service.
Suggested Duration & Dates: I was thinking having this be in Mid to Late July, since August appears to be a busy month for myself & some other players. It would probably last about a week, give or take.

sufferenjoy the effects.If you could please include a post in the OOC comm a few days before the event; if you wish to do a collective log for people to tag into, that would also be excellent.
If you have any questions, please let us know.
