PLOTTING (RETIRED)
⚰︎ ⍢ ⌲ ⍚ PLOTTING:
THIS PAGE HAS BEEN RETIRED. Please submit plotting requests to the NEW PLOTTING PAGE.
This plotting post facilitates player-mod communication about IC plot ideas of various types, from questions about the setting and character actions influencing it, to plot suggestions and player-run plots. Before coming to this page with an idea, players should ensure they have discussed it with the other directly impacted or participating players.
The best approach to these requests is for players to explain the intended outcome of the idea is so that the mods can collaborate with players on a way to make it happen within the context of the setting.
Fill out the form below in order to submit a request, and label the subject line with one of the request types explained further down the page:
This type of submission is for players who need either mod guidance on brainstorming or additional information about the setting (or who have minor suggestions for setting additions, like buildings or plants/animals). Players can share a goal or point of interest and ask how to make it happen, or simply ask how their character might achieve something.
Think of this submission type as information gathering. As a result, these requests are freeform and informal, sparking a collaborative discussion with the mods. Note: submitting a brainstorming request does not mean committing to the IC actions being discussed, so this is a good way to explore possibilities.
Players submitting this type of request are welcome to forego the form at the top of this page if they prefer.
This submission type is for reporting character actions that might have IC ramifications within the setting — such as when a player's own character dies, when they destroy or steal NPC property or kill more than three people, or when they take actions that might alter their influence over the setting/plot.
Please understand that these may involve positive or negative consequences, or just neutral impacts! Players should always be clear and transparent about their preferences for the consequences their characters face because we're here to facilitate your good time. In addition, bear in mind that negative consequences are generally temporary, and characters can always come back here with a new plot to try and adjust their reputation with a plot designed to positively impact the town's perception of them.
Except in cases of their own character's death (which need only be reported with a single line and can skip the form), players should wait for mod reply before making wide reference to these events and their details, as requests may lead to clarification or be altered to accommodate some aspect of the setting. Please reach out as soon as possible to keep the mods informed.
These submissions are required for plots that involve a group of five or more player characters and/or any mod NPCs, or those which would impact the setting of the game.
These plots cannot be implemented until approved. If a player wants their plot to be a surprise to the rest of the game, feel free to bring it over to the MOD CONTACT post.

- If I want Daenerys to gain political power, is that possible here? How would it work?
- How big are the farms beyond the walls? What type of farming do they do?
- Can I invent a weed in the farms beyond the wall that has aphrodisiac pollen?
- I want Juno to open a bowling alley. She has CR with Nagai Kei, who works as a carpenter, and he can help her with making wooden pins and balls. How might she secure a location and what else might she need?
CHARACTER INFLUENCE & IMPACTS

PLOT COINS
If you don't already have a plotting thread going and you would like to spend a plot coin, please use the form below:
character influence / impacts
Summary of Plot/Goal and Intended Outcome: following some difficult conversations on the network, mavis explodes in a telekinetic burst of force. this explosion would be heard throughout town and cause considerable damage to the cabin in which mavis, murphy, and aristaeus have been residing. it would be extra loud to anyone who's living outside of town. this occurred on 6/17.
Questions for the Mods: are there any consequences for this from npcs who might have heard the explosion, see the results, learn what happened, etc.?
Suggested Consequences: probably rubeans will be a little afraid of mavis when they realize she's a nuke
Potential Impact(s) on Setting/Premise: if people want to say that the explosion clipped other buildings outside of town, or that flying debris caused some minor damage, that's fine.

If Mavis explains at the following Moot that this incident was an accident (a crime of the stomach), Mateus will ask if any Rubeans were personally inconvenienced to give their side of the story. Since no one was, and Mavis' house has already suffered significant damage, Mateus will say that the matter is handled-- before being interrupted by a Rubean named Varvara, who notes that crimes committed by Void-touched should be held to a different standard when they have powers beyond that of a 'normal' person. The discussion becomes increasingly heated along Zlatniki and Blackguard lines, before Mateus calls for order.
Mavis will not be asked to make restitution, since no one was inconvenienced or harmed but 'her' people, and that is considered punishment enough. However, she will be treated with greater suspicion by a segment of the Rubean population for sometime afterward. She will be able to psychically read that Rubeans still have Varvara's proposal very much on their mind.
