This post is for coordination to prevent the IC Event Log from being overrun by OOC mod and player communications. Forms and instructions are available in this post.

Use this post to:

◎ Coordinate event plots with the mods
◎ Request a mod dice roll
◎ Submit noticeable actions
◎ Write rapid IC exchanges
◎ Investigate a plot point or track ongoing investigations

If you have any questions, see the Questions thread on the OOC Plotting Post.

Available Forms

For details on each form, see the sections below.
Be sure to reply under your assigned category if applicable.

Mod Communications

If you have an idea related to the event plot, communicate and coordinate with us here. This includes NPC meetings, requesting resources, destroying the environment, or anything else that may require mod permission. If we can't accommodate a request for any reason, we'll do our best to offer an alternative!

Contact Us

<b>Player Name:</b> <b>Character Name:</b> <b>Request:</b> (Describe what you'd like to do)

Randomization Request

Request a mod dice roll at any time for outcomes and consequences. Some actions require a dice roll to proceed, such as attacking an acolyte NPC or attempting to break anything major in the environment (chains, doors, walls). If you aren't sure, you can check with us.

Request here

<b>Player Name:</b> <b>Character Name:</b> <b>Action:</b> (Describe what your character is attempting to do and how) <b>Thread:</b> <a href="urlhere">Thread</a> (Link to the thread where this is taking place) <b>Notes:</b> (Anything else)

Notable Actions

Submit notable actions that are likely to gain attention from other players, such as fights or disturbances.

Submit a notable action

<b>Player Name:</b> <b>Character Name:</b> <b>When:</b> (Approximately when is this incident taking place?) <b>Where:</b> (Where is this incident taking place?) <b>What:</b> (Describe the incident) <b>Link:</b> <a href="urlhere">Thread</a> (If applicable. Actions can be submitted without a thread if they're minor, such as if your character snores loudly every night.)

IC Exchanges

Use this option for interactions you'd like to play out, but setting up a standard IC thread would be impracticable. For instance, if your character wants to speak to several people about an event they witnessed together, you might want to do an IC exchange.

Treat this like an informal IC network thread done in person, where character reactions, snippets of dialogue, and other details can be quickly played out and concluded in-game without committing to a full log thread. Exchanges are game canon and can count towards Activity Check under the category of a Network thread.

Start an IC exchange

Using the provided form is optional. Begin a thread freeform if you prefer.

<b>Where & when:</b> (Where and when is this exchange taking place?) <b>Purpose:</b> (What's the reason for this exchange?) <b>THREAD START</b> (Write the scenario, your character's actions, and any dialogue as usual)

Investigations

Several investigation paths are available for characters to interact with. Each assignment group will have their own set of investigation paths. You can investigate something as many times as you want, as long as there's a reasonable explanation for your character making their second attempt. Interacting with investigations might carry IC consequences. We'll try to telegraph when characters are at high risk of triggering something major. To investigate, fill out the form, then comment under the item you're investigating.

Interact with an Investigation

<b>Player Name:</b> <b>Character Name:</b> <b>Other characters involved:</b> <b>Action:</b> (Describe what your character is attempting to do and how. If multiple characters are taking action, include their actions.) <b>Thread:</b> <a href="urlhere">Thread</a> (Link to a top level or any other relevant threads. This is so we can review what the characters involved have been doing to best flavor the investigation outcome for you!) <b>Notes:</b> (Anything else)

UNUSUAL CHARMS

[shadowthief]

Player Name: Kayla
Character Name: Inej Ghafa
Other characters involved: N/A

Action: When she manages to find her alone for a moment, Inej approaches the Mysterious Acolyte peacefully. She has two questions she wants to ask:
1. Is she a captive like they are?
2. Is there something special about the gold charms on her robes?
Depending on her answers, Inej may try to probe further.
Thread: Top-Level mentioning Inej's notice of her, and a desire to speak with her being established.

Post-ritual, the Mysterious Acolyte can indeed be found alone without her former guardian acolytes.

1. Though she continues to be hesitant and a little timid, she looks sympathetic at those who have undergone the ritual and seems determined to make her rounds despite having no one to guard her. While her answer is not straightforward, she says that she was "chosen" many years ago, as they have now been chosen. It's unclear if she's referring to her strange appearance or her presence with the Acolytes.

2. Her charms hold the same power as any charm. She says they are a reminder that all blessings from the gods demand a cost. She will depart shortly after.

Some time later, Inej will discover a gleaming charm nearby, hidden beneath a patch of moss. By now, she may have noticed the shrines have begun to bleed.

1. Inej tries to prod more, if possible- asking if she means she was chosen for a ritual like this.

2. She hastily tries to ask before she leaves- "Do you consider yourself blessed? By which god?"

She'll keep the charm she finds in the moss.

[abraxasmods]

The only answer Inej will receive is that they are all blessed. The Mysterious Acolyte will not confirm what the ritual means to her. The topic appears to make her withdraw quickly, and she will hurry to leave.
