TAKEN! OOC PLOTTING    

This is a plotting post to get to know your groups and plot with other players! The info post for March's kidnapping plot may be found HERE. Although threads while in captivity and during the rescues are limited to characters within their own groups, there will be opportunities to thread with other characters, as well!

As far as abductions go, extremists will approach characters in a number of ways: asking for their help, surprise ambushes, etc. For the most part, these attempts will not be out in the open, but it's flexible otherwise. Characters can come up with their own scenarios and plan outside of their groups for kidnapping threads! In the end, they will be knocked out and taken away, with more details to come later. Hostage characters will be tricked or forced to wear a magical object that completely nerfs their powers, and this object cannot be removed.

All characters, including those who did not sign up for a plot role, may still participate in other ways. They may, for example, be witnesses to and fail to prevent another's kidnapping, spread the word around town about the incidents, and provide medical and emotional support to both hostages and rescuers. Everyone will need a bit of cheering up!

We have provided headers for each group for your convenience, but these are not exclusive to only members of that group. You may also make your own toplevel if you prefer.

I mean, that's fair. He probably wouldn't expect anyone to believe him until after the power limiters get taken off (at which point he'll aggressively heal for about 10 minutes until his body gives out from the strain, oops)

[baguablade]

look, Cain is gonna need those drinks after Dorian saves him by SETTING EVERYONE ON FIRE, being against murder is a perfectly reasonable point of view!!

[almaredemptoris]

it's ok, Valjean is abnormally strong for no real reason even though he does absolutely nothing to maintain it. prays the way to a 6-pack ig.

a fight would put him in a tough position since he doesn't want to harm Takasugi, but he would obviously want to stop him. so this will be fun.

[bornofgods]

An essential part of any team is the freeloader.

No, no... he'll help. He'll try??

[priorly]

Why is it always noble torture, Byerly, why can't it be kicking and screaming torture like everyone else.

I want aftermath things ofc, I suspect Prior might actually be Quite Fucked Up by this.

[meinwaifu]

Please make sure Mephisto learns his name is Justice, he'll make nothing but "Justice saves the day" jokes while coughing up blood.

But he shouldn't die during transit! I say "die from his injuries" but assuming he's able to have the power limiter removed after being saved, his powers will heal him from most of them. But his body will be so damaged, he'll overtax his powers while his body is already weak, causing it to start breaking down-- and that's what will eventually kill him. #justdemonthings

personally I think Richie should preemptively deflate below smuggery by making out with Prior first.

I mean what.

okay works it into my next tag ig, how does he have so many male suitors

how does he have ANY SUITORS, DO NONE OF YOU HAVE ANY SELF RESPECT

[bornofgods]

It'll be good to have a comrade in arms!!

[vorrutyer]

Because spy training from feudal lords emphasizes two things:
1. Don't give up information under torture
2. Do try not to embarrass us, please, you're a representative of the Vor while you're out getting tortured so put on a good face and keep it together old chap


But yes, god, poor Prior. I desperately want Byerly to try to comfort and support him because I'm a sucker for that shit.

[priorly]

....no?

no.

[summertimeblues]

sad.......

[priorly]

Prior is p attention starved though I'll be honest, you just need to smile nicely as he walks by. Also, low standards, let him tell you about his ex.

[priorly]

yet lucky for some.

[summertimeblues]

well you're in luck richie is also starved for attention always, like some kind of social wendigo

also 4ever alone, probably going to die a bachelor

let's just pretend things are cool together homie, sorry about your shitty ex

[priorly]

If he gets murdered over this Prior's gonna murder him.


Me too, but also he's likely to be mad as hell and not going to take this anymore. Which. I don't know what that looks like but maybe some talking down.

[baguablade]

sup fellow hostage... in another group

I wanna do some aftermathy WOW THAT SUCKED, maybe we should do something about this shit, yeah, yeah?? CR when they're rescued if you're up for that?

[baguablade]

why are you like this

[baguablade]

I would be super interested in #2 and also apparently being the only sane ones in their entire party, why is it always murder?? But yeah, investigating because finding out why this is happening and how to keep it from happening to other people is big mood, hi5

[bornofgods]

Provided further input from his peers, Ozymandias will lean towards checking out the Potions labs. The spill at the Robotics lab is also suspicious, but he’s unsure if the logistics would have been as easy as if the dissenters were working out of the Potions department. There seems to be the promise of poisons regardless, so they best be prepared.

[priorly]

if Richie dies btw it's p robably going to snap his tiny tether.

Richie dying and Byerly being fucked up = the impending implosion of a tiny gay sun.

[summertimeblues]

it looks like he is, sorry 8(

he'll....be back....don't worry about it, it's fine

[bornofgods]

Ozymandias is another demigod, ready to help Percy where he can. He'll be calmer and will generally insist that anger won't help, but hurting non-magical people? I mean, if they have to... he doesn't see much of a problem with that.

[priorly]

Everybody Prior knows needs to relearn the definition of fine.

[bornofgods]

Since Ozy will be playing a hand in rescuing Linneus and the other hostages, I'm open to post-hostage antics with these two!
