APRIL EVENT 1.2 PLOTTING

april event 1.2 plotting


MARCH CHOICE RESULTS: MERCY
Based on the results of everyone’s last Choice, Princess Andalina has been Protected. Are you proud of how you’ve chosen to spare a conqueror? Or were you motivated by hopes that maybe one day she could become more than a sum of her mistakes? Regardless, the revenge plot against her has been silenced.

Though a turn of fate follows after this choice.

For the month of April, all characters will be given a new piece of jewelry. This jewel holds a gem that will be a reflection of their soul. When they are happy, it gleams, when they are upset, it grows stormy. Do be careful with it though - any harm that comes to it will be reflected on the owner. Fractures or chips will result in wounds that won’t close unless seen to by a Mender or Crafter. It’s a bit of an intimate experience though, as touching the jewelry piece will let you know someone’s emotions as well as your own.

Glitches also seem to affect these gems, which means that every now and then they will blip right out of existence–and into someone else’s hands. Will they be as kind with you as they were Andalina? How do you feel, having the whole of your soul entrusted to someone else?

LIMITED EVENT REWARDS:

  • Characters who chose to Protect Andalina: Congratulations! Your reward for your choice is One Crown Keychain that allows you to utter one command to someone else that cannot be disobeyed.
  • Characters who chose to Kill Andalina: Congratulations! Your reward for your choice is One Dagger Keychain that allows you to take someone else's "resources" - whether that be their money, items, or an intangible skill that they possess. You will be able to take that skill for 48 hours.

    Both of these rewards will be activated if rubbed three times. Accidental activation is OOCly allowed and welcomed, especially if it's funny.


  • ON & OFF WORLD: BRING THE THUNDER
    Well, you know what they say: April showers bring May flowers… Hopefully, if we can even make it to May.

    The weather coming to Crane City is a bit turbulent, to say the least. Winds, rain, thunder, and lightning–hope you don’t startle easily. Strangely, Avis Isle will also be experiencing an Event that is rooted in a rather noisy dragon kicking up gusts and bringing storm clouds. What a coincidence!

    > april/may choice

    The Event Domain is–the entire world of Duocaeli, turns out. If you’re the type of person who finds the online haven to be more comfortable than the modern comforts of Crane City, you’ll need to navigate yourself back to the guild town’s center, which just so happens to be in the eye of the hurricane.

    A dragon has been roused from his slumber, and he’s not pleased about it. In fact, he seems very determined to eat the sun itself, starting with hiding it from view with quite the downpour. While Avis Isle has a rather flexible climate, it’s certainly not prepared for something of this scale. The rain is relentless, prompting flooding as rivers pour over their banks and the crops are at risk of getting swept away. Fighting the dragon is an option, maybe, but the local guilds have found a different ritual that could seal it away more permanently.

    The ritual will weaken the dragon and seal it away, bringing back the sun and the sky, but characters who agree to proceed with it will lose one memory that informs their identity. They will, in essence, lose a part of who they are. This memory can be later regained, but will at least disappear for the remainder of the month–though ICly, characters will not know if it can ever come back. The more people agree to the ritual, the more likely it is to succeed… but are you willing to play those odds?

    Characters may offer their soul gem to the dragon to increase odds of success–this will function as 2 votes rather than 1–but that character will experience a full amnesia arc for the rest of the month rather than lose one memory.

    Alternatively, characters who are not so eager to lose parts of themselves can abandon the ritual and move to simply evacuate and rescue the people who are in immediate harm’s way of the dragon’s floods. Though as the rain continues to pour in Crane City with no signs of stopping, who’s to say that only Avisle will pay the consequences…

    The Choice is Yours. Players must submit their Choice to this toplevel by Friday, April 14th at 3 PM PST/6 PM EST. For a Choice to count for IC consequences and rewards, players must submit a thread of at least 3 comments interacting with the Event Domain.

    Character Name: Katsuki Bakugo
    Canon: My Hero Academia
    AU Plotting Post Link: Here

    Plotting Plans:
    💥 Option 1: Arrival
    ✧ A late prompt, but Bakugo will be dealing with all the fun options of arriving for the first time in the world. He'll be starting out in Avis Isle disoriented and wary, but luckily will have come from a "calm before the storm" area in his canon
    ✧ I'll have a few prompts to start off with this option, running from 1) arrival "where the hell am i" moment, 2) getting familiar with his magic (water) and the depowerment of his Quirk, 3) figuring out what the Quest board is and possibly accepting one, and 4) meeting up and getting acquainted with his guild (Warrior) in the ON world.
    ✧ I'll also have some prompts for his awakening and familiarizing in the OFF world in Crane City, including 1) getting familiar with his surroundings, 2) dealing with the smartphone if that's of any interest, and 3) the checklist for getting started in the "real" world setting. These prompts are varied and can be adjusted if there's anything immediately interesting.

    💥 Option 2: Event
    ✦ Bakugo is a private person that doesn't like people knowing more about him than he wants them to, so having a gem that reacts to his emotions is going to tick him off. Expect him to hide the jewelry for the most part. This can lead to some explosive shenanigans if people want to have his "soul gem" transported to their hands. Especially since he's new and likely knows only a few people.
    ✦ Since Bakugo was not around for the first event, he won't have access to either of the keychains.
    ✦ Stormy weather prompt in Crane City! If you wanna end up running into Bakugo during the storm or get stuck inside a place to wait out the thunderstorm, either are good first-meeting prompts to go off of.
    ✦ Storm dragon prompt in Avis Isle! Being a warrior and a hero, Bakugo can be found helping people through the storm like a natural disaster responder, or trying to prevent structure or crop damage as he can. Whatever sort of rescue/protection is needed. He'll be working with his guild and will be the first one to suggest taking out the dragon via battle rather than some dumb ritual! Fight it! Ultimately he will agree to the ritual, but only because the ritual offers an end to the weather onslaught and there's been no offered suggestion that the dragon's threat can be ended by battle or waiting out its assault.

    Looking For:
    💥 Part 3: CR
    ✧ New player, new muse, so any and all CR is welcome! Bakugo has one castmate here, so he'll be meeting up with him at some point. But beyond that, he'll have to end up meeting other people. Warning, "friendly" is not this guy's name, so be prepared to deal with HARD mode when it comes to CR with him. Bakugo respects strength, ability, and determination most of all. Show him those and he'll at least consider interacting with you. He's matured at this point in canon, so expect to get some response regardless of who you are.
    ✦ While it's difficult to reach a "friend" level with him, he's far more likely to end up with training partners, information traders, magic teachers, and some stubborn sorts that want to keep trying to hang out with him. ON world CR can expect to spar with him in both melee combat and magic lessons, or take on Quests with him if he feels you're worth his time and effort. OFF world CR can range from study partners for school, part-time job offers, and various hobbies or sports.
