event 03 plotting



Another month comes and goes.

This month, Strangers arrive peacefully and are expected when they arrive. Alas, the Queen's Residence is still in chaos, and there's much afoot. The Strangers have arrived just in time for a six day festival that coincides with the spring equinox and the beginning of the planting season around Draega.

You can read the full event here. The post is currently locked for responses and will open at 8PM EST on the 21st. Take this time to talk to each other about what you're interested in doing and accomplishing in this event.

Questions should be asked here. For this event, Strangers have the chance to run into all major NPCs except for Queen Fayura. As such, please use the top-levels below to hash out plans with the NPCs. You don't need to do this, however! NPCs may crash your threads just because. As always, you may drive the cityfolk as you please.

Some additional information…

The Guilds have a significantly stronger presence in the city than they have had in previous months. The landens are far more raucous and belligerent with the Blood. Should you wish for a little more conflict, you are welcome to work confrontations between landen and Blood into your threads. Bear in mind, the landens will be the instigators here.

The Blood and the Ebon Council's presence has been weakened. The Blood are quieter and wary, avoiding confrontation as much as they can. Landens are far more obvious in their use of Muters and their carrying of Breakers.

While Strangers won't be able to interact with Fayura during this event, she is out and about in the city. Strangers will find her helping decorate and actively participating in the celebrations during the first three days.


After this event…

New players can assume that characters know all the information given in the info pages. Whether you handwave a conversation with random NPCs or assume that Loren answered your characters' questions, as of the end of the event all PCs have been informed of the landen Guilds, the Ebon Council, and the state of the world.

Characters may move out of the Queen's Residence and establish their homes elsewhere. Many buildings in the city are empty and in need of repairs, but no one will stop Strangers from moving in.

Any one who remains at the Queen's Residence will receive a modest stipend, enough to cover food and drink. Loren will make clear that Strangers who do not live at the residence will not be afforded this money but also that Strangers who do stay are considered part of the Queen's court in as much as actions they take will reflect back on the court.

Allairavar reminds everyone who chooses to stay at the residence that if you live with the court, you practice with the court. He expects all the Strangers who stay to be on the practice fields with everyone else at dawn. To those who are reticent, he explains that no one needs to learn how to fight only how to defend long enough for help (he seems to imply himself) to arrive.

So general stuff...

- She'll be excited about the festival, because finally something here that's not a trash fire.
-She'll be less excited about the planting but will be experimenting with using craft to make it much easier going for her.
- I want to have her move out this month, but she might need a roommate and to find a job. If anyone else wants to move out and wants a roommate let me know. Prooobably females for this.
- I want to try to have her interact with an NPC this month, but I'm not sure yet which one or what about.

Hit me with things!

a festival... lalli has probably never been to one in his LIFE, so! let's see what we have here...

-first of all, you WILL catch lalli at the bakers' booths, and you WILL see him spending all—yes, all—of his money on SWEETS. if anyone else out there has a sweet tooth like this boy... maybe they can both eat til they pop? convince him to trade something he has for something someone else has?? or fight over the last cookie, because he'll throw down...

-he's going to think all of the rides are possessed and will either refuse to get on them OR make himself look like an absolute buffoon. see: the time he encountered moving walkways for the first time. will someone out there help him get over this fear??

-he won't care about competing/winning anything, but he'll probably be pretty darn good at some of the carnival games? let's play some of those.

-lalli will, of course, help plant stuff... maybe someone more experienced with this stuff could help him out? he'll be pretty interested in how the queen's magic affected the earth itself, seeing as how the magic he's used to deals with nature-y things, so... he'll be pokin' around.

-other than the event: he's still running around the city, familiarizing himself with every nook and cranny, AND he's still going to morning lessons, so. want to start some new cr/build on some old cr? hit me up here or over at [plurk.com profile] tuchanka!

I would love to have Sansa and Mary thread at the festival! Sansa is also super excited about this non trash fire event.

katniss everdeen | the hunger games

[personal profile] burn_with_us 2019-03-20 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
Katniss is brand new this month so yay, what an event to get her started with. She will:

- Not want to help with the party planning but will get roped into it grudgingly. If someone is cheery and more into decorating than she is, fantastic, because that will both a) grate her nerves and b) take the pressure off her to be creative.

- She's also going to be a little wary about the festival but she'll be about the carnival games. Katniss has a hell of an arm and good aim, so she can win some prizes for the little ones? She also loves baked goods, so she'll indulge and scowl less.

- She'll think the Queen's blood ritual is creepy but she's happy to do work in the fields. She's done that kind of hard work before and she'll do it again. She likes growing things.

If you think of anything or want to plot with me, hit me here, PM me or hit my discord @ sheikah#5408

Sure! Yes, a real life event where people are celebrating and not dying, what a concept.
unwieldy: (just randomly generate them.)

[personal profile] unwieldy 2019-03-20 01:37 am (UTC)(link)
they def have to plant stuff together... as much fun as carnival games competition sounds, haein's not too great at them so lalli would win and WE CAN'T HAVE THAT

finally the day has come when they must work together

and it will be terrible

Is there a chance for Daylight to run into Niall during the event? Day would be interacting with the Guilds more often in his attempts to complete his assignment he got from Master Doriah and he would like to meet the boss of his boss.

So. About morning training.

Is there also afternoon and evening training for the workaholics? Or is Bucky the only one?
agentlenpc: (Niall1)

[personal profile] agentlenpc 2019-03-20 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
Niall will certainly be out and about and would very much like to meet the young man about whom Doriah keeps offering grudging compliments. "He's competent enough" is high praise. Niall is fascinated.

It will be easiest to interact with him around the carousel or the other Guild delights. He promises he isn't working. Much.
agentlenpc: (Allair1)

[personal profile] agentlenpc 2019-03-20 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
Afternoon training? NO ONE JOINS Allairavar FOR AFTERNOON TRAINING. Would Bucky consider evening training to be 'make sure the people in the city aren't actively trying to kill each other and dealing with it if they are'? Because if so, Allairavar can accommodate.

Sansa Stark | Game of Thrones

[personal profile] theladyofwinterfell 2019-03-20 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
Sansa has settled into palace life over the last month and while Draega is certainly strange to her, she's gotten a little more used to the protocol and the flow of things. She's begun to use Craft for shielding and healing and can do minor things with it outside of those. Re the events:

- Sansa will definitely help with the party planning. She's quite excellent at this, actually, and can help organize (conscript) more reluctant parties into helping her with it in case your character needs a hook to get involved.

- Sansa is delighted about the idea of a festival! She's a bit wary since the Blood-landen tensions are up and so she'll be bringing Bucky Barnes along as an escort (thanks [plurk.com profile] sometimesamuse!). She'll want to touch a bit of everything - the games, the food, the carousel - so you can certainly find her anywhere you like.

- Sansa will go to the Queen's ceremony and help in the fields, though likely not with the planting proper. She'll be bringing water to people, making sure no one is injured, fetching things.

If there's anything else, or you want CR with her and none of the event things are tickling your fancy, you can PM me or hit me at sheikah#5408 on discord.

TRAINING IS IMPORTANT. SQUATS ARE IMPORTANT. MAKING SURE YOU CAN KICK ASS AND TAKE NAMES IS IMPORTANT. But yes this fool is all about the physical activity and may as well be doing something productive therein.

just curious about something since i don't remember if it happened, but has raya seen directly/been mentioned in-game since the first event? I know people like Grejor have been on the radio things but I don't think I remember her?
