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. <b>Player Name:</b> <b>Instigating Character/Incident:</b> <b>Event Outline:</b> <b>Areas Affected:</b> <b>Long-Term Impact:</b> <b>Suggested Duration & Dates:</b>

Player Name: Lel

Instigating Character/Incident: Danny/The Dreaming

Event Outline:
Danny comes from a canon that happens to feature some artifacts with really absurd side effects. Blame it on his presence here, blame it on his one year anniversary, but one of the weirder ones is about to follow him here through the Dreaming.

The Amulet of Aragon has the unique side effect of turning anyone who wears it into a dragon the first time they lose their temper while wearing. In order to return to their regular selves, someone needs to remove the necklace.

Plot:
1. one to three volunteers will be recruited to find the necklace, depending on interest. For plot purposes, it will be assumed the necklace comes with a compulsion to wear it.
2. The first time the volunteer loses their temper after putting the necklace on, they will transform into a dragon and immediately attack the source of their anger. This can be actual anger or it could just be a source of mild annoyance.
3. This will not end until someone manages to remove the necklace.
4. If there is more than one volunteer, the necklace will then get lost until it is picked up by the next person.

Areas Affected: Keeliai
Long-Term Impact: Some property damage is possible. Possibly more irritation at the foreigners.

Suggested Duration & Dates: less than a week. Whenever is convenient.

Sorry for the delay! We're intrigued by the plot but want to ensure that the logistics are feasible. When you say one to three volunteers, does this mean there will be a three character cap? Would you also be willing to put a time-limit on how long a character will be wearing the necklace? This would be OOC-ly determined, of course, and played out however is appropriate in-game, but it will help ensure there aren't simultaneous dragons as far as thread dating goes.

[invisibill]

Yes, depending on how many people are interested in that part of the plot. I thought putting a cap at three people would keep it manageable.

A time limit would be a good addition. Say 24 hours for each person?

Your plot has been approved! We'd like to suggest July 7th (a Friday) as the kickoff date for the event, and have it run for about a week. Each of the three characters can be in dragon form for a maximum of 48-hours (up to player discretion), and as per our size limitations for incoming characters, the dragon itself cannot exceed thirty feet in height or length. If the dragon is flight-capable, all the usual limitations of soul gems apply.

Given the potential for property damage to occur and the subsequent reactions of the city at large, this will be mentioned in the upcoming itinerary. If you could please include a post in the OOC comm a few days before the event for planning and logistics; 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!
