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

[natha]

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!

archer & siegfried

[fakers]

archer will hang around olympia briefly, trying somewhat futilely to clear his name or figure out what's happened... particularly since he absolutely did not deliver cargo to the south outpost (though he did take that job), but eventually he'll realize its not worth it and then flee the city entirely.

if someone would like to do something with him before he books it, feel free to hit me up! otherwise if any of the other fugitives are going to be hightailing it out of the city, maybe we can coordinate something. he'd probably try to contact others in his shoes and try to work together in some way.

siegfried will do his usual thing and just investigate behind the scenes, but will step up to help with capturing/fighting any shady associates if someone he knows is involved. otherwise he'll also probably try to do something to help the sick, though he knows he's not really qualified for that sort of thing...

[regives]

archer and leanne are just a carly rae jepsen song........ unbelievable

[fakers]

why would you go there

but yeah he'd definitely reach out to her...

[regives]

(archer voice) I'll be your sinner, in secret
When the lights go out
Run away with me

thanks... you jump into a lake one time with a boy and he's willing to help ya out

[fakers]

is that how that thread is going to end

i see

[lacuscular]

juvia would definitely want to check in on archer to see if he's okay... she believes you're innocent especially if you want to help keep her love life in check

also, if he wants to use rick's portal gun to leave the city conflict free.. B ^) he's your guy

[fakers]

if he realizes she's sick he might try to check up on her before he leaves... don't die juvia, your husband(???) will one day wake up for you

hm, that might be tempting! haven't worked out how he'll get out of the city yet, or even how that logistically works... ha...

[strictdiscipline]

me



we have a million threads already but me

[fakers]

he'll continue practicing his cool double pistol shooting even when he's gone

but yeah for once they can Get Real and trade notes on what's happened before he runs off. and he'll make her soup if he realizes she's sick...

[strictdiscipline]

thanks buddy.....remembering her by double fisting pistols

but okok i'll inbox you tmr when i have computer access again

[fakers]

he'll remember her by doing exactly what she told him not to

[underwhelms]

they can!! go on a stroll rift in that park where jj mistook him for a coat rack it'll be so nostalgic

[uwe]

everything is just going to hell around them and they go on a quiet stroll

yeah no this is perfect... siegfried needs to make sure he's wearing his (useless) armor properly too

[underwhelms]

honestly rift i have no clue what it is that siegfried got him it doesn't look like it can protect against anything but the cold

and i guess jj will be hobbling and groaning from pain during this stroll but something tells me siegfried is used to that kind of thing

[crosspear]

Hey, just saying.

If Archer needs anything, Gaius would be willing to have Zeo bring it to him. He might even send his bird after him with a note telling him to take care. It depends on how gay you want Gaius to be. "I met him once and therefore he can't be bad" mentality, etc.

[fakers]

what a bro...

but yeah i was definitely prescient about needing to backdate that sparring lmao

[sullenstallion]

you sly dog

But yeah, I don't know how...fun...threading out bird letters would be, so it can also be handwaved. But Gaius would definitely be concerned. And if he can help out, he would, without question. He highly doubts anyone is tracking his bird usage, plus he assumes Zeo is too much of an ass to be caught. SO IDK! let me know if you want to

[competing]

izumo will probably ask archer if he's innocent so maybe a check up... can happen...

[fakers]

he was framed... this was all a set up.

Re: archer & siegfried

[tricksune]

idk how things will progress BUT i want a thread with siggy before the month is over, if he doesn't mind getting sneezed on, points 2 eyes points 2 u

[fakers]

is yusuke getting sick too

is everyone getting sick... what is the world coming to

[tricksune]

yes... i regret to inform you that all of sieg's cr is going to die, coughs directly in all of the knights' mouths

[beatupgrass]

ARCHER, BRO. MY SPIDER-HUNTING HOMIE.

This is balls.

Rocket's already gonna get smuggled out with Angel and Peter, but I'd like for them to run into each other while trying to figure out what happened.

[fakers]

YES lets do it

i was wondering if any of the other fugitives would go on the lamb instead of just getting caught and reformed... i love this

he knew he could count on you, rocket

[beatupgrass]

YEAH ROCKET IS JUST LIKE UM THE LAW HAS NEVER WORKED WITH ME EVER AND ALSO I AM SICK. /DISCONCERTINGLY HUMAN-LIKE MIDDLE FINGERS
