alien plot (。_。)

[divaricate]

Hihi, everyone! This is for anyone who wants to do some OOC coordinating regarding the most recent installment of Wanda's alien bullshit plot (here is a closed log that elaborates more on that video post).

→ For our new players in game, this is the first plot we've had in game that's starting to delve into the alien origins of the three new planets, and I hope there's many more proposed by people who want their characters to explore some alien lore! Wanda's has been focusing on the jungle planet. It's not too late to jump in on this one, either.

Some bullet points:

— The aliens she's had her couple of run in's with over the last months are part of a group trying to create a mix of species that could threaten the balance of the City, because some aliens are really salty about power balances and the politics in that. Evidence of this was found by some characters while researching the alien base when going back to retrieve Wanda in May (OOC dates). The alien stuff put in her system when she was captured then had an cosmic elder god origin.

— Wanda and Angel later went back to the planet a time or two to create a base of their own. After they got it to a, uh, somewhat decent position (neither of them are professional construction workers ok lmfao), they went back again with Steve later to do more underground exploring. Here they came across a straight up occult cult, this is fine.

— Which leads us to Wanda being unconscious, sans soul, as linked in the first posts. When it is back in her body, she will be less prone to the intense side effects of the substance put in her in May. The downside is that, magically speaking, now that the spell was done to her, she will be a baby version of something that is part cosmic alien. By 'baby version', I mean as a player character she isn't going to be suddenly able to manipulate the game's world to her whims like it's House of M. Her psionics and magic will start to shift, though. That said, any character in game who has a sense for the non-human and can identify certain anomalies within people would be able to sense a cosmic elder god aura in her.

Erik will do what he's told to help Wanda.

Harry will have Erik, Steve, and Peter, LL be there on the two sides of Wanda's bed, as he stands at the end. He'd draw a circle around the bed, just large enough for the three, himself, and Wanda's bed to be in it.

With father, husband, and brother there to provide a link, and with Sara there to provide guidance, he would use the Death Totem to reach out to Wanda, find her soul. He'd then use his power to reach back to the three at the bedside, latch onto the signature of the others with Wanda, and bring her home to her body.

As the ceremony ended, she would be able to wake up, whole and healed, with Harry gently putting the death Totem into a bag, handing it to Sara, and then vanishing via teleportation without a word, to let those who know her be there for her.

And to get very drunk.
