PLOTTING POST } Cthulhu And Friends

Happy almost (IC) Halloween, players!
🎃💀☠️

Courtesy of these shenanigans are thanks to Team Connor, for being bold, brave, and accidentally poking at things under the sea. Here’s a follow up post by The High Priestess on the matter.

Starting late on the IC date of NOVEMBER 1st and lasting until the early hours of NOVEMBER 3rd (be sure to check the game calendar for corresponding OOC dates), the City will be, um, “treated” to a presence breaking out of the ocean depths -- Cthulhu is going to come say hi to the Chosen -- and wreaking havoc on the City with some of its friends.

👾



These friends will not be nearly as big as Cthulhu, nor quite as formidable, but will resemble versions of things found in the deep sea -- gnarly teeth, worm-like bodies, bioluminescent attachments, et cetera. Players may be as free as they want in their imaginations of these minions, but, as always: if you have any questions, please ask in the mod question thread of this entry.

I will be posting an event log for this when the event starts, so please wait for that to go up before doing any IC threading -- this is your plotting post, for all your plans, questions, and getting ducks in rows.

*drumrolls*...


OTHER BITS OF INFORMATION:

➤ Players on hiatus or who want to opt out of this event can have their characters take relative shelter on one of the other planets, or the Magistrates left will be securing some underground shelters for natives and Chosen who don’t want to or can’t deliver asskickings to cosmic gods.

➤ Cthulhu will do most of its damage mentally (see below point), but also because of its sheer size (yes, we're using the scale size in the linked picture of it above wHOOPS), will also fuck up some structures. Cthulhu's minions, however, will be doing most of the physical damage, especially if they get a person surrounded and overwhelmed.

➤ Prolonged contact or direct near presence with Cthulhu induces insanity. You won't go from 0 to 100 in a half-second, but it'll definitely be a steady medium-to-slow climb, depending on one's mental fortitude. The only people who are 100% immune to the insanity effects are Magistrates, however.

➤ By November 3rd (IC date), the combined efforts to beat back Cthulhu And Friends will have them driven back to the sea to hopefully stay there this time.

➤ If you have plans to kill your character off during this event, run it by the plot post before the event post goes up so we can keep a headcount.

John Wick | [personal profile] withafnpencil will be on the front lines without meaning to be. One can catch him taking down minions like the badass hitman he is. He'll be making his way around the City so if he's in your vicinity and you'd like something, we can make it happen.

Natasha Romanoff | [personal profile] iwasrussian can be found fighting with intent to get down to the coast to try and take down the Big One. I still haven't totally decided if I plan to screw with Nat's mind (hence her "intent"). She's got her Widow's Bite and other weapon's and will be doing what she does best.

Elliot Alderson | [personal profile] imtalkingtoyou is going to be mostly at the police station, helping Claire out with getting City folk to safety and running CCTV to find people who might be trapped. He'll also be doubling up his reconnaissance with locating the server room (hey, lbr, chaos has a way of getting people to look the other way, amirite?) for his own "project".

He will also have his split personality, Mr. Robot, taking over so chances are if "Elliot" leaves the station, it's because his alter ego has taken over. Mr Robot is everything Elliot isn't, so anyone who's met him so far will notice a difference in confidence and speech.
