EVENT #6: PEACE ON THE HORIZON (OOC)

Event #6 - PLOTTING POST

After pitting their Summoned against one another in an attempt to vie for the greatest control over the caskets and the Singularity, and being further spurred on by Goro's march on Solvunn, the three factions have finally made their stance...and invited all to a Summit! Tensions are high and with the outcome of the Dimming being so even, it only makes sense that everyone would extend a hand in peace and understanding.

There is nothing to worry about.

All the Summoned will be given the opportunity to travel to a remote location near the Singularity for the weekend. The event will take place ICly from February 18th through February 21st. Participation is voluntary but the respected faction leaders highly encourage their Summoned to make their presence known. After all, whoever has the highest representation likely has the most loyal open-minded Summoned.

A key purpose of this event, in addition to allowing inter-faction mingling between all characters, is that CHARACTERS MAY CHANGE FACTIONS AT THIS STAGE IF THEY WISH and no one will (overtly) stop them. During the Summit, every faction will be trying to win over the Summoned to either join their side or keep them from switching sides. This is not explicitly stated nor will anyone admit to it being the case, but there is a sense that the Summoned are being wooed.

If you want to switch factions, please reply to this comment over on the IC event post.
Plotting Form
Feel free to use this short form to make plans for this event, including whether or not you're interested in helping others switch factions, if you plan on switching factions, or if you just want buddies for the bathing pool.

Questions and Answers

If after reading these you're still unsure about anything, or your question wasn't covered, please feel free to hit up our Questions thread below!

Can my character leave the event early?
Absolutely! Characters can leave through their designated faction exits whenever they like. However, once they leave, they cannot return to the event. Those who want to stay for the duration of the Summit must remain in the area and use the tents as their temporary quarters.
What will my character be told if they ask to leave the boundaries?
Characters will be told that it's for their own safety that they can't leave the area. They are out in the open wilderness, so there's no telling what dangers might lurk.
How many raffle tickets can my character purchase?
ICly, characters can purchase as many as they can afford. OOCly, we ask players to submit just one raffle entry per player (not per character) for the prizes, in order to keep things fair!
Can the faction pin be removed? What happens if characters try?
The faction pin cannot be removed. It's magically attached to characters and will only dislodge once they step through the portal to return home. Attempting to remove it before then will yield no results.
How are characters assigned tents/sleeping quarters?
Characters are not assigned to any tent, nor are they required to stay in a single tent. As long as they are welcome by those already inside, they can come and go between tents as they please! Players are encouraged to do the same and to work out their tentmates with each other for CR purposes if they so choose. There are enough tents for everyone to sleep comfortably.
My character was a prisoner of Thorne. Will they be imprisoned if they want to return to Thorne?
Characters who were originally imprisoned by Thorne may switch factions back to Thorne without risk of punishment. They will be granted amnesty and will be offered the same treatment as any of the current welcomed Summoned.

Character Name: Wanda
Current Faction: Solvunn
Are you switching factions? No.

Do you want others to sway your character to another faction? They may try, but she is pretty firm about wanting to remain in Solvunn (because of personal reasons). Wanda will be glad to hear about what others have to say about Thorne and the Free Cities, as this may be her one chance to get a snapshot of the other factions without actually having to go there.

Is your character open to convincing others to join them or to leave a faction? Wanda is, in general, pretty kept to herself, but should someone look for a reason to move into Solvunn, she can help them sort out that decision. Otherwise, she won't go out of her way to do so.

Are you looking for tentmates? Sure!

General Plans: Not much outside of what's already in the event, but I'd like to have Wanda going about the different factions and checking out the activities they've got to offer. Getting to build cross-faction CR through these interactions would be ideal, too, as well as maybe using her magic a little for the Most Mundane of things (you got it, you flaunt it, right?), or perhaps to try and instruct the basic things about it (and not be very good about teaching it).

them trying to chase the little critter really does sound like a great bonding exercise, even if they'll just get glitter bombed or something as a result!!

it is the price they'll have to pay for their bonding!! it'll be silly and definitely the pick-me-up they'll need after all their silent grieving.
