TERRORIST GROUP PLOTTING POTLUCK!
Thanks for coming and showing interest 8D I really hope you guys get satisfaction and joy from being a part of this plot! I'm really excited by the huge number of characters, not to mention variety! VERY EXCITED FOR THIS PLOT, YEW GAIZ. So here's the rundown:
- Ultimately, the group will NOT succeed. There may be one or two "victories", but as both factions have much yet to offer in way of gameplot, the Newcomers' terrorist group will lose. Therefore, this is more a plot with focus on character development, rifts within the Newcomer community, creating new character relations (or straining pre-existing ones!), any other unforeseen consequences, and whatever ends it may contribute to the gameplot.
- As of yet, the idea is for the group to NOT keep a public face. That is to say, there will likely not be a group name, they will not publicly claim responsibility for their acts of terrorism, and will not make a list of demands or any such thing. It will simply be attempting to destroy strategic locations in order to weaken the companies and their power over the city and its people. (or, that's the intent, anyway.) If you think there's good reason for them to have public face, feel free to argue your case and we will all decide.
Obviously, this group is secret and rule of thumb is that your characters are keeping their membership to it secret as well - unless it comes up as possible plot ;)
- This plot is to be stretched out over SEVERAL MONTHS, with there only being a handful of incidents, working alongside undisclosed gameplot. We will be working closely with the mods to coincide with game events. WE DEFER TO THE MODS AND THE GAMEPLOT. of course, Aaron is marvelous and is more than happy to find ways to compromise or integrate player plot into things, which is why this will always be an OPEN DISCUSSION plot and there must be CONSTANT COMMUNICATION between ourselves and with the mods.
- Though I came up with this plot and am organizing it, I do not consider it "mine". I want this to be OUR plot, one where we all work together and where everyone gets a moment in the spotlight (as much as feasibly possible). That said, this is a DIPLOMATIC plot and we must all be communicating with each other. I don't consider this "my" plot, but please keep me up to date on things since I am the one organizing it, in any case.
- BE RESPECTFUL OF THE MODS, GAMEPLOT, AND OUR OWN MINI-PLOTS WITHIN THE OVERARCHING ONE. Communication, as difficult as it is for most RPers, is vital to the success of this plot, especially with how many muns and characters we're going to have flying around. If you don't agree with something, SAY SO! You may have a legitimate concern that we didn't see, there may be a way to compromise, etc etc. I want everyone to be attended to and be satisfied as much as feasibly possible.
IDEAS SO FAR:
- first explosion a "success", but many innocents caught in the blast
- kidnapping of SERO and/or AGI employees in order to "interrogate" for information? (NPCs or willing player characters???)
- their successes and failures need to reinforce that the City NEEDS the factions more than it admits/realizes, which could lead to more hatred directed towards the group
QUESTIONS TO THROW AROUND:
- though we will probably wait to decide until it's closer to closing time (seeing as the game environment at the time might provide better opportunity/ideas), what are possibilities for the dissolution of the group? too much discord within the group itself? other Newcomers rallying against them? getting caught by the companies? someone within the group rats everyone out?
- what are your goals as a player for your character being in the group? what development will they undergo? how will they be affected by probably killing innocent people, or the negative reaction of the other Newcomers?
- what are your predictions for what your character will do during their time in the group? agree or disagree with trying to keep innocent bystanders out of the way? try to establish themselves as leader?
