A House Divided Plot - How We Runnin' This Thang
"Laws control the lesser man... Right conduct controls the greater one."
-
OKAY, folks, let the showdown begin! We are doing this in stages and parts, as planned, to allow for tagging in at different times. If a part has [GO!] next to it, you may start tagging like crazy for it. If it has [HOLD!], the post is up, but we haven't moved onto it yet. Do not start tagging until it's been edited to say "GO!" as that's the single that Important Things that need to happen first have happened and we can open up the new part. (Although people can still keep tagging the old parts, too, as long as they want).
Who's Involved
Conspirators List
Marcus Wright (on security team), Ronon (on security team), Sam Winchester, Leela Bricker, Xander Harris, Ravager, Red-haired Man, Jason Todd, Robin, Bella
--To join them in the fray: Katara, possibly Dark Smoke Puncher
Security Detail + Crowd Control List
Marcus Wright (conspirator), Ronon (conspirator) Leon Kennedy, Sensor, Cameron Mitchell, Nightwing, Ax, Elfangor, Worf, Robert Donovan, Samus Aran, Jo Lupo, Ms. Marvel, MiddleMan, Jean Grey, Dr. McNinja, Master Chief, Chris Ramirez, James Mother-effin' Tiberius Kirk, Picard, Pat and Toxin, Angua
--To join them in the fray: Danny Phantom, Jaime Reyes
Bystanders
MANY LOTS
--Special roles: Claire, Stature, Geoff, Obi-Wan
A House Divided -- Part 1 [GO!]
The two subthreads are "event threads" and consecutive, as in, they are one long thread each, rather than more subthreads. That means is one where we need to pause and let other people tag in and where some talky-talky will go on.
-- Stage 1 - Moving the Yeerk
This is Leon's team moving out, noticing as things start to go awry and so on.
-- Stage 2 - The Attack!
This is the start of attack, and any words that are exchanged before the fighting begins in earnest. I.e. the start of the fray.
A House Divided -- Part 2 [GO!]
This is the main fight thread. For every new specific fight between a few individuals, or grand entrance, or whatever, make a new subthread. Such as between Jason and Dick or Samus vs. Marcus. This is for BYSTANDERS to duck and cover, help each other out, and get involved in the fighting, if they so choose. Please keep in mind that it will be dangerous for bystanders, but for the most part, both sides will be trying to keep them from getting hurt, so no random deaths or anything. They won't be flinging a whole ton of powers or heavy ordinance around.
Thread-hopping is allowed, and even encouraged, but please ask the other people in the thread if it's okay, as a few people have planned parts of the fight together and may not want them interrupted. You can even do fun things like refer to another fight in your own thread. ("Jamie dove out of the way as Samus slammed Marcus into the side of the building near him, and then dodged a waterwave flung by Katara") and so on.
Please no random killing of the Yeerk. We will let folks know if they have a clear shot, but for the most part, it will be very difficult and we have a certain ending planned for it.
A House Divided -- Part 3 [GO!]
This is another one with "event" threads, that are both two long threads, and thus pauses will have to be made at points for certain folks to tag in.
-- Stage 1 - The End?
This is the last potshot at the Yeerk, the last attempts to kill it and whether they're successful or not.
-- Stage 2 - An Unfortunate Complication
This is where the people given "special parts" (Claire, Stature, Obi-Wan, and Geoff) have their roles, and the crew has a very solid reason to stop fighting.
A House Divided -- Aftermath [HOLD!]
HERE
An aftermath post summarizing what happened and the end result, where arrests and whatnot occur.
Don't Want to Be Involved?
Or have no time? That's okay. This is all taking place in the City. If you're busy, your characters can be up in the Living Area of the ship and miss the whole thing.
Questions?
Hit the mods here, hit the mod email (transmigration9 [at] gmail [dot] com), or grab a mod on AIM. If you have a specific question about the Security Team protecting the Yeerk, hit Will, Leon's player (AIM: sohkalumni, Email: wgreenjr [at] hotmail [dot] com). Will says he doesn't check email often, though, so AIM's your best bet. If you have one about the Conspirators, hit Brandon, Sam's player (AIM: Blitzsturm, Email: mysterio2002 [at] gmail [dot] com). If neither of them is available, ask another mod or hit the mod email!
