( october 2017 plot write-up and ooc plotting post pt. 1 )




October's plot progression will be posted in THREE parts. Only the last part will be a formal event log, so players are free to take the information provided in these plot write-ups and plan their own threads. Characters will also have a choice to make. What will they do after learning about or experiencing these events? Please note that you YOU MAY ONLY SIGN UP FOR ONE CHOICE. This post will also function as a plotting post!

THE ATTACK    

Nobody, not even those most in tune with Olympia's underground, could have predicted the attack that will befall Olympia on the morning of the 1st of October. It's a busy time in the Market district, and that is likely why this group strikes when it does. A loud, thundering BOOM can be heard from the center of the district, and panic ensues. What was a pleasant morning in Olympia becomes one rife with confusion and fear.

It's a bomb of some sort, and within a split seconds, the immediate area surrounding the point of explosion is covered with a thick, bright purple fog. There are no injuries. The explosion merely releases this unknown purple chemical into the air. Panic turns into confusion. Natives close to the attack site report beginning to feel unwell about an hour after exposure. Their memories of the attack are hazy.

The following characters were unfortunate enough to be close to the site of explosion, and will now suffer the effects:
  • Matt Murdock
  • Bucky Barnes (Marvel 616)
  • Junpei Tenmyouji
  • Cheryl Blossom
  • Allura
  • Juvia Lockser
  • Gaelio Bauduin
  • Jean-Jacques Leroy
  • Clary Fray
  • Wrathion
  • Athena Cykes
  • Sansa Stark
  • Rocket
  • Lucy Pevensie
  • Sirius Black
  • Ariadne
  • Rose Lalonde
  • Percival de Rolo III
  • Riza Hawkeye
They have been infected with an unknown disease, simply referred to from here on out as VIOLET2710. At the moment, there is no call for a quarantine, as Empress Simwe cannot be reached. Although authorities are concerned, there seem to be no other symptoms other than those of the common flu. Characters will experience headaches, body aches, an elevated temperature, congestion, and cough. They are advised to get rest. The illness is determined contagious, but only through bodily fluids. Whether airborne infection is possible is still undetermined. Those feeling the effects of VIOLET2710 are advised to keep a close eye on their symptoms, avoid contact with others, and alert health officials of worsening symptoms.

Infected characters may sign up for a choice as outlined below, but due their compromised physical state, will not be successful in completing CHOICE 1 or CHOICE 2.
THE CULPRITS    
The reckless terrorist is quickly caught mere minutes after setting off the biological weapons. She is a young woman, and has protected herself from the chemical accordingly. It appears that she did not anticipate being caught, and under threat of death, even she crumbles to a hearty dose of truth serum administered by Evras. The confession tape is sent as a city-wide broadcast to every citizen's phone.

Remember the Carriage Quest? The Shady Man offered quite a large sum of money to those willing to do his bidding, didn't he? That's because someone intercepted his plan, and now, thanks to the help of certain people, he was able to get back on track. That carriage driver you killed? That was not his original cargo. The carriage driver knew that these were biological weapons meant to be set off in Olympia, hijacked the cargo, and raced to find a safe place to dispose of them.

With the carriage driver killed and the cargo safely delivered to the South Outpost, the original plan was set to continue. After much resistance, she is willing to give up names.

Soldier: 76. Ana Amari. Jesse McCree. Rocket. Peter Quill. Archer. Giovanni Rammsteiner. Leanne. Genjo Sanzo. Norba Shino. Those are the people who delivered the weapons to us. Thanks to them, your people will suffer. This is just the beginning, assholes.

The feed cuts off.

Unfortunately, despite having what you may have thought were good intentions, these characters are now Wanted Fugitives within the Kingdom of Olympia for the act of treason. They will be stripped of their job title, and will now have to wear disguises around the public parts of Olympia. Multiple postings around the city will show their face, and a 10,000 silver reward to anyone who hunts them down, captures them, and brings them to Ashti.

MOD NOTE: There are ways for the above characters to re-gain their job title, Olympia REP, and clear your name, but you must allow your character to be captured first. Please PM us to discuss terms!

WHAT NEXT?    
What will your character do, if anything at all? Please note that these choices affect the next part of this event, and may have character consequences. Sign up for ONE CHOICE in the comments below.
CHOICE 1. My character will dedicate themselves to hunting down the Shady Man and his associates, and will bring anyone caught to Ashti.
CHOICE 2. My character will dedicate themselves to hunting down the Shady Man and his associates, and will kill anyone caught.
CHOICE 3. My character will try to find a cure for this disease at The Sanctuary or Simwe Institute and/or care for affected PCs. Please note that characters who are not employees of either business are expected to work with a current employee(s).
CHOICE 4. My character will be getting infected through close contact with one of the "Patient Zero"s.
CHOICE 5. My character will be assisting affected npcs and uncovering rumors surrounding the incident.
You have until OCTOBER 7TH to submit your choice.

You may thread and plot with people outside of your own choice. For example, Character A who signs up to help find a cure for the disease may also thread with Character B in helping them track down an associate, as well as Character C in speculating on a rumor, but for OOC purposes, only their official choice will count towards affecting the plot.

Please feel free to use this post for plotting!

Ermes Costello (hunting)

Hey folks!

So if you want a chance at some negative CR, Ermes wants to find and capture the PCs that were named by the terrorist, because 10k is great. She's going to try to appeal first, say that they should turn themselves in and know that there will be refugees who will absolutely try to argue for their good name (she herself would do this for anyone she knows.) But if that doesn't work, she will definitely go into fight mode.

SO if any of the listed folks wants to do anything with this, hit me up? She won't be looking to kill... cause she wants the silver. Being a bounty hunter is definitely not the same as being a cop she will argue this to make herself feel better.

[personal profile] kissintime 2017-10-02 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
they outta team up for going after associates!! ermes would insist on not killing them purely for the reward but if that's the way hawke wants to do it they can join up in the spur of the moment and meet that way.

Hawke's goal is mostly like "what is the least troublesome" SO SHE ISN'T TOO PICKY EITHER WAY.

WOULD YOU BE UP FOR A CAPTURE ATTEMPT? it might need to be a failed one where 76 gets away, still waiting to hear back from mods on stuff, but i would love something with them!
kissintime: (king of the mountain)

[personal profile] kissintime 2017-10-02 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
failed is fine by me! she would definitely want to see if she can talk him into ~doing the right thing~ at first. and hey, he gets to see her show off her powers a bit more.

[personal profile] personalwar 2017-10-02 03:04 am (UTC)(link)
YEAH they can definitely have a chat about it and then if she tries to forcefully bring him in he will probably get the fuck outta there / ensue chase scene? but something!!
kissintime: (getaway)

[personal profile] kissintime 2017-10-02 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
sounds excellent to me! unless you plan to put up a log of your own, i'll probably make one for my stuff and give you a prompt? how's that sound?

[personal profile] personalwar 2017-10-02 03:12 am (UTC)(link)
that's perfect! once i hear back from the mods i'll have a better idea of whether it will be a successful capture or not \o\

also he'll have an outfit change (no visor, wearing a hood), but i think it's fair to assume that ermes would recognize his voice if he was talking to someone, and then his scar patterns once she got a look at his face

he'll be hanging around the red light district trying to find the shady man ... HOPEFULLY THAT GIVES YOU ENOUGH TO WORK WITH

Will she advertise it? You knows one or two of the named people and might try to argue for their innocence because she is a naive bab.
kissintime: (great expectations)

[personal profile] kissintime 2017-10-04 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
She won't advertise it on the network, but if You catches her trying to get leads out of locals, we could have a confrontation of a sort through that?
ayes: (pic#11471755)

[personal profile] ayes 2017-10-05 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
Yes! That works for me!

You thinks ermes is really cool BUT she also really likes ana so.... she would try and come to a conclusion!
kissintime: (king of the mountain)

[personal profile] kissintime 2017-10-05 03:12 am (UTC)(link)
sweet! I'll be getting up a log later in the week so I will make a prompt for You and send you a pm if that sounds good by you.
