MINI-EVENT: CODA - OOC POST

[abraxasmods]

Mini-Event - OOC Plotting

IC event log

---

The Mini-Event covers two main aspects:

• The fate of Josselyn Creed and her faithful Acolytes, taking place April 18th
• A ceremony and gala (mingle) for each of the three nations, taking place April 21st-23rd

In the week leading up to her judgment, characters who took part in Event #12 will have the opportunity to question Josselyn while she's being held in Nocwich.

All characters will have the opportunity to witness her fate. It will be held in neutral territory near the Singularity, the same area as the Peace Summit, so that those from each faction can attend.

The ceremony and gala will be held in the factions. Thorne's will be in Hayle, the Free Cities' will be in Libertas, and Solvunn's will be in the Secondary Settlement.

Divine Judgment

Following her capture, Josselyn Creed awaits what the Solvunn Council calls divine judgment.

The other Acolytes who stand accused have received judgment from the Summoned. They're held in a separate area from Josselyn Creed, but are in Luna, as well.

◎ Interacting with Josselyn is restricted to characters who participated in Event #12.

◎ Attending her execution is open to all. New arrivals are welcome to watch...though they may not want to.

Josselyn Creed

Josselyn Creed is in one of Luna's dungeons. Officials will only allow visitors to come one at a time, and they must schedule their time beforehand. They have only a brief period of 10 minutes to speak to her.

Her cell is bare except for a small upturned wood crate for a seat. She does not appear to be mistreated, though nobody's taken pains to keep her comfortable. Any wounds sustained have been bandaged. Guards keep her secured, but no other prisoners are nearby.

Questioning Josselyn

Characters who participated in Event 12 will be allowed time to speak to Josselyn. They can question her directly or use any abilities they have on her such as mind reading, scrying, or telepathy.

Although characters will not be left alone with her, guards are unlikely to interfere unless her life is in danger or characters get out of hand. This is not out of concern for Josselyn. Rather, the Luna have a reputation of their own they want to uphold.

You can engage with Josselyn HERE. We'll do our best to provide everyone with some answers. Characters can ask anything they want, including about her brothers, the Mysterious Acolyte, and more.

New requests will close April 30th at 11:59 ET.

Execution

Josselyn's execution will be a public affair. Due to her importance on the Council and her role in the incident, Solvunn will not accept mercy. They've determined that the Old Gods will enact retribution as they see fit - which won't be pretty.

◎ The execution will be led by Solvunn, but it will be located in neutral territory close to but not at the Singularity's crater, roughly the same area the Summit was previously held. It will take place over a few hours.

◎ Attending the execution is optional. Officials will be in attendance so they can confirm the execution did indeed occur. The Summoned do not need to be there.

◎ There will not be any explicit participation options for this portion. This section is meant as a conclusion for Josselyn's role in the event. However, players are welcome to have characters interact with each other while attending.

The Acolytes

Three categories of Acolytes are left to deal with: the dissenting Acolytes (who struck a deal with the Summoned), the faithful Acolytes (who made no deals and remain loyal to the cause), and Hydnellia, now known as Lorelai, and Esmond (who are seeking refuge in Solvunn.)

During the Wrap-Up, characters submitted their opinions and voted on what to do with each of these Acolytes.

Decisions Made

Below are the outcomes for the Acolytes awaiting judgment.

◎ Faithful Acolytes
The faithful Acolytes have been imprisoned.

◎ Dissenting Acolytes
The dissenting Acolytes have had their deals honored.

◎ Lorelai (Hydnellia) & Esmond
Lorelai & Esmond have been allowed to return home to the Tertiary Settlement.

Weekend Gala

Each faction is hosting a gala over the weekend. The event is a joint effort between officials and regular citizens who are grateful for the Summoned returning some of their loved ones home safe. Many also simply want to help after the Summoned have provided aid to them over the months between errands, quests, and other tasks.

New arrivals are invited and encouraged to attend!

Thorne (Hayle)

Thorne's gala is in Hayle. Known as the crystal city, Hayle is most famous for its beautiful crystalline architecture.

Anastasia Rhett, the Duchess of Hayle, has opened the doors to Hayle University's finest ballrooms for the event. The King and Queen will make a brief appearance, as well as Borrel's generals (including the Queen's uncle), scholars, aristocratic families, and other important citizens.

Contributing

Although the Summoned are invited as guests, anyone who wants to contribute can do so. Characters can do things such as decorate, bring a (high quality) dish or dessert, and even put on a magical demonstration during the banquet. They can also help their less fashionable colleagues find suitable outfits for the banquet.

Let us know what characters will contribute HERE and we'll add it to the IC Event Log!

Schedule

◎ April 21st

Upon arrival through the portals, characters will receive a gift bag containing a few small items.

A room will be provided at one of Hayle's grand inns for the weekend. A complimentary breakfast is included. Characters can request a private room or ask for a room with someone they know. If not, they'll find themselves with a random roommate - a good way to make a new friend!

A short gathering is planned for in the evening, where the King and Queen will address the situation over the past several weeks. They will thank the Summoned for their deeds and sacrifices. Following that, refreshments are provided. The Summoned can stay as long as they like or go to their rooms.

◎ April 22nd

Characters can spend the day exploring the city of Hayle. Parts of the university might be closed, but some areas are open to the public. Read up on Academic Magic or explore rare Arcana decks in exhibits around the city. The streets are filled with shops and boutiques offering magical devices to improve daily life. Street performers utilizing magic will invite your character or other passersby to participate, including some illusory magic that can give you a small makeover.

Each Summoned is given a spending allowance to buy themselves (or each other) trinkets, food, and even a fancy outfit for the upcoming banquet. While they won't be able to purchase anything too extravagant, they'll have plenty of money to look their best - certainly, more than the common citizen could afford.

The banquet is in the evening. A wide array of decadent dishes and fine wine will be served. Characters will have assigned seating to start with to facilitate interactions, but this doesn't mean they can't switch seats or tables if they want. Everyone is free to mingle and meet one another.

◎ April 23rd

A full breakfast will be provided at the inn's dining hall in the morning before characters return through the portal to Castle Thorne.

Free Cities (Libertas)

The Free Cities' gala is in Libertas. Living up to its name, Libertas is famous for its lax social norms and sense of individualism. The city boasts subversive art and brightly colored architecture.

Quilleth Kaur, the representative of Libertas, has invited the Summoned to a location of great meaning to locals: the Willow Memorial Park, designed by Arts Restoration Committee - led by two of the Free Cities' own Summoned - to commemorate the lives lost after Thorne's attack on the city. Prime Minister Marlo and Fallon Marsh of Aquila will make a brief appearance, as well as high-ranking members of the military.

Contributing

Although the Summoned are invited as guests, anyone who's eager to take initiative and wants to contribute can do so. Characters can do things such as decorate, bring a dish or desserts, or even put on a performance if they're skilled in the performing arts. Poetry and music are welcome! They can also help their less fashionable colleagues find a suitable outfit for the feast.

Let us know what characters will contribute HERE and we'll add it to the IC Event Log!

Schedule

◎ April 21st

Upon arrival through the portals, characters will receive a gift bag containing a few small items.

A room will be provided at one of Libertas's newly constructed inns for the weekend. A complimentary breakfast is included. Characters can request a private room or ask for a room with someone they know. If not, they'll find themselves with a random roommate - a good way to make a new friend!

A short gathering is planned for the evening, where the Prime Minister will address the situation over the past several weeks. She will thank the Summoned for their deeds and sacrifices. Following that, refreshments are provided. The Summoned can stay as long as they like or go to their rooms.

◎ April 22nd

Characters can spend the day exploring the city of Libertas. Parts of the city continue to show signs of destruction, but much of it has returned to life. Street performers are on every corner reciting poetry, playing music, putting on free outdoor plays, and showing off acrobatic stunts. There are also gambling halls, an endless array of taverns, and artist alleyways featuring sculptures, paintings, and poetry.

Each Summoned is given a spending allowance to buy themselves (or each other) trinkets, food, and even a fancy outfit for the upcoming feast. While they won't be able to purchase anything too extravagant, they'll have plenty of money to look their best - certainly, more than the common citizen could afford. Anyone who's earned money of their own can purchase extra goods and a few merchants will offer free demonstrations that can contribute to your evening look.

The feast is in the evening. The outdoor garden will be lit up with lights powered by New Magic. A wide array of eclectic dishes, wine, and ale will be served. Characters will have assigned seating to start with to facilitate interactions, but this doesn't mean they can't switch seats or tables if they want. Everyone is free to mingle and meet one another.

◎ April 23rd

A full breakfast will be provided at the inn's dining hall in the morning before characters return through the portal to Cadens.

Solvunn (Secondary Settlement)

Solvunn's occasion is in the Secondary Settlement. Home to the majority of its agriculture and livestock, the settlement is known for its uproarious parties, though this particular gathering has a much more somber note. A series of large tents have been erected in which the occasion will take place.

As usual, Winifred Bordeaux and Rowan March are present, along with Isar Hart and his faithful companion Skadi. It appears they're becoming a little more involved with the Council's affairs.

Contributing

Although the Summoned are invited as guests, anyone who wants to contribute can do so. Characters can do things such as decorate, bring a dish or dessert, tell stories, or even show each other new skills. Storytelling, arts and crafts, and music are welcome. They can also help their fellow Summoned find an outfit that'll fit the mood for the potluck. Comfort is highly encouraged over style. Individuals in Solvunn prefer not to stand out and go to great lengths to dress neatly but plainly. Any decorative flare is minimal.

Let us know what characters will contribute HERE and we'll add it to the IC Event Log!

Schedule

◎ April 21st

Upon arrival either via portals from the Primary Settlement, characters will receive a gift bag containing a few small items.

A communal tent will be provided for sleeping purposes, filled with all manner of pillows, cushions, and blankets. Breakfast will be cooked together over outdoor fire pits with local ingredients such as fish, eggs, and seasonal vegetables. Characters are encouraged to set up this space however they see fit. If they'd like to sleep near others and make a new friend, they can. Accommodations will be made for every Summoned so they are comfortable!

A short gathering is planned for the evening, where the remaining Council members and Isar will speak about recent events, addressing in particular the black sheep of their community, Josselyn Creed. Afterward, members of the Council can be found among the Summoned and locals, enjoying the provided refreshments. The Summoned can stay or go back to their tents.

◎ April 22nd

Characters can spend the day exploring the Secondary Settlement's vast countryside. The locals are welcoming. Farms, orchards, berry fields, and blooming meadows fill the space. Nearby woods line the flowing rivers. There's plenty of livestock grazing and wandering around, including Isar Hart's prized sheep and Rowan March's prized goats. Several of the goats might be familiar to those who participated in previous goat races. Fishing is available in the nearby pond and social games spring up spontaneously.

Since Solvunn emphasizes community and sharing, each Summoned is encouraged to barter or exchange handmade accessories, food, and even outfits for the upcoming potluck. Make flower crowns for each other, weave ribbons, or help darn an old dress to make it just like new for your neighbors. Extravagance is not the goal, but many do want to look their best.

The potluck is in the evening. A wide variety of rustic and homemade dishes from families in the Settlement - and maybe the Summoned - are available. The centerpiece is a pig roast, along with locally brewed mead or ciders. There is no assigned seating in Solvunn. Instead, stone benches, cushions, and stumps are placed in a tight circle together to facilitate interactions. Everyone is encouraged to mingle and meet others.

◎ April 23rd

A full breakfast will be provided outside the tents in the morning before characters return through the portal to the Primary Settlement.

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!

Divine Judgment

What will Josselyn's execution look like?

Josselyn's execution will be in the form of a sacrificial ritual that invokes the judgment of one of the Old Gods.

Can characters speak to the imprisoned Acolytes?

Technically they can, but we won't be providing a formal avenue for it. They don't have as much insight as Josselyn and would only be able to confirm the general details Josselyn provides. They would not contradict anything she says.

Will officials attend Josselyn's execution?

Officials will send representatives to attend the execution and confirm that justice has been satisfactorily delivered.

Can characters interact with Lorelai and Esmond?

Yes! Lorelai has been formally added to Solvunn's official NPC list. We will add Esmond soon. She and Esmond are considered named NPCs, so interacting with either of them will require submitting a request through Plot Engagement.

Weekend Gala

Can my character contribute more than one thing?

Yes, but please only submit one for inclusion in the Event Log. Additional contributions can be mentioned in your personal threads or logs, however!

Can characters return home overnight, then go back the next day?

Yes, it'll take more effort on their part to travel to and from the portal twice, but they're welcome to do so if they'd prefer to sleep in their beds.

Are the inn rooms free?

Yes! The city will provide free rooms, breakfast, and snacks for characters staying for the weekend.

What type of jewelry or clothing styles are available?

Each faction has its sense of style and fashion trends. Our Settings page has visual inspirations for each faction provided by one of our players: Thorne, the Free Cities, and Solvunn.

Will officials be attending the gala?

Yes! Officials will be present. Characters are free to introduce themselves briefly. Please hold extended conversations for when Plot Engagement opens. If characters request to talk for a length of time during the gala, the NPC in question will let them know to contact them after the event.

CONTRIBUTIONS

[abraxasmods]

Characters can contribute anything they like to the gala - within reason! Decorations, for instance, should match the atmosphere of the event and performances should follow similar guidelines. Dishes cooked for Thorne's banquet should have a bit of effort in its presentation whereas something cooked for the Free Cities' feast can be more chaotic in appearance.

We'll add contributions submitted before April 16th to the IC Event Log. Characters can continue to "contribute" in-game after this date - we just won't be able to include it in the event write-up. However, you're welcome to mention it in your logs and threads.

Fill out the form below to submit your character's contributions. Please submit only one contribution per character for inclusion in the Event Log.

<b>Player Name:</b> <b>Character Name:</b> <b>Faction:</b> <b>What are you contributing?:</b> (Limit of ONE submission per character. Describe what your character will be bringing or doing! This could be a fancy dessert, a musical performance, volunteering to style guests' hair before the dinner, or providing decorations such as floral arrangements.)

JOSSELYN CREED

[abraxasmods]

Characters can ask anything they want, including about her brothers, the Mysterious Acolyte, and more. They can also attempt to use any psychic abilities they possess on her.

Only characters who participated in Event #12 can question her. Please limit your request for interaction to one per player.

New requests will close April 30th at 11:59 ET.

Julie Lawry | Free Cities

[princessvegas]

Player Name: Sarah
Character Name: Julie Lawry
Faction: Free Cities

Execution Plans: Yep. The old gods better fuck that bitch up bad, or Julie will riot.

Gala Plans: Yes, she will be attending. As always, she will most likely be performing as the stylist for her fashion-challenged fam, but she might be willing to add to her client list if you ask real nice. She will not be contributing anything else.

General plans: Pretty open! She will be rooming with Geralt as usual, so no random pair-up for her, but anything else goes. She will be distributing snacks at the execution. Chocolates and popcorn are well-deserved for this occasion.

Abby Littman

[everybodysterrible]

Player Name: Rakath
Character Name: Abby Littman
Faction: Free Cities

Execution Plans: Ummm... no, why the hell would she? What's wrong with people!?

Gala Plans: Abby's absolutely going to a party for whatever reason there is for a party, even something as... ew, as this. If anyone wants to try and coax her into providing, Abby is capable at cooking and decorating (even if they are hardly her favorite things).

Libertas will be a chance for her to investigate the clothes and art in the area, which are things that'll catch her eye. She plans to go to everything and try her best to not get too noticed.

I'm down for her having a random roommate, if you wanna jumpstart any CR with her that way.

General plans: Abby is going to 'attempt' to be polite and social during the gala. She'll be bad at it and it'll be funny. Rescuing her from herself might be worthwhile.

viktor | free cities

[techmaturgy]

Player Name: Whit
Character Name: Viktor
Faction: Free Cities

Execution Plans: Morally opposed to government executions (and executions in general) and will not be attending! If you ask him why he will be happy to tell you! He has opinions!

Gala Plans: Viktor is not good at parties but now that he’s not actively dying he will probably be a little more pleasant. Not much of a socializer but he’ll do his best!! Leaving myself wide open for this for any CR catching up or new meetings anyone might like to do.

Also thinking he will contribute some kind of fun clockwork or perpetual motion decoration or something suitably nerdy just for funsies.

General plans: I am hoping to use this event as an opportunity to hit up all the new Free Cities people! He is familiar with Libertas and happy to show people around, and outside of the gala will be enjoying the various activities. I talked a little bit here on the CR meme about the things he can offer with regards to inventions, but he’ll be actively seeking new projects so feel free to pitch him. It’s pretty well known that he’s a tech guy so feel free to hand wave hearing about that if you need a hook. Otherwise I’m coming for all you Cadens newbies.

If you want to hit me up elsewhere, I’m at plurk at whitticus or on discord at whitticus#8139.

Norman Jayden | Free Cities

[takeatrip]

Player Name: Ami
Character Name: Norman Jayden
Faction: Free Cities

Execution Plans: Absolutely not 8( Right now I don't plan for him to ask any question either, but that might change.

Gala Plans: Yes! Shockingly. He's not hugely interested in the party or the mingling but is curious about Libertas, though he'll show up (at least for a little while) to the gathering and feast. Also shopping. He's been broke af so that shopping allowance is getting used.

General plans: He's requesting a private room so that he can continue hiding out in the Horizon in between other stuff going on, but otherwise I'm open to anythng! New CR, deepening current CR, getting into shenanigans, I'm here for it all~ Also if someone wants to be his shopping buddy so he doesn't end up buying things he shouldn't, that would also be helpful.

Galadriel | Thorne

[seaandsun]

Player Name: Carly
Character Name: Galadriel
Faction: Thorne

Execution Plans: She will be attending, although outwardly will probably show no signs of being particularly disturbed or excited by the outcome. Elves are sort of difficult to read that way.

Gala Plans: Galadriel will also be attending the gala, looking VERY pretty and probably a lot more dressed-up than anyone is used to seeing her up until now. She’s not great at making small talk but for new people, she’d do her best and for growing and furthering existing relationships it might be easier to chat her up about the outcome of things. I’d also love to use this element to get her situated in game again — I had a bit of a rough time settling in with this event so I want to take advantage of this one to settle her in with folks both old and new.

General plans: Galadriel will also be exploring Hayle since she’s never visited before, if anyone wants to team up on a tour together! She’ll also be available to chat over breakfast, and if anyone wants to play out the hilarity of being her roommate, let me know! Here for new CR, building existing CR, all of it. Feel free to hit me up on Plurk at favoritings, Discord at gothic#5387, or here with any thoughts!

Eddie Munson | Solvunn

[satanicpanics]

Player Name: Hannah (2)
Character Name: Eddie Munson
Faction: Solvunn

Execution Plans: Yeah, absolutely not. He has no love for Josselyn but he doesn't exactly take joy in watching someone be executed.

Gala Plans: See, he's not normally a "willingly attending a gala" type of guy, but you've offered him the opportunity to put on a performance...of he's going going to do it. Prepare for the most ahead of its time musical performance you've ever seen, Solvunn! Just don't ask him to play Wonderwall, he's never heard it.

General plans: He's kind of been keeping an eagle eye on Steve since the whole Acolyte ordeal just to make sure the dude is alright, so good luck getting him too far away from that, but he's pretty open for general Secondary Settlement nonsense otherwise! You can grab me here, or find me at muttonchops or 🍗🍗#5873.

claude von riegan | free cities

[godshattering]

Player Name: Arboria
Character Name: Claude von Riegan
Faction: Free Cities

Execution Plans: He's going and willing to chat with anyone about it before/during/after! Right now I'm not planning to have him ask Josselyn any questions (this might change) but he'd be interested in hearing from others who did.

Gala Plans: He'll be at the gala for sure! Right now I'm thinking he'll probably help decorate as his contribution and will happy to encourage others to enjoy the party once they're all there, especially new and newer faces, and I'm happy to team him up with others planning to decorate! He's pretty social so also glad to have him bring shyer characters into whatever's going on, etc.

General plans: His rooming arrangements are probably spoken for, but Claude will also out shopping, enjoying performances and probably a gambling hall or two, and basically anywhere that he can be easily found throughout the trip. Since getting back post-event he's not been out all that much, but he will be now! I'm really interested in new CR, deepening existing CR, and anything and everything in between. I'm open to tossing him into anything so please feel free to chat with me here, on Plurk at indech, or on Discord!

hilda goneril | free cities

[theidlemaiden]

Player Name: Terra
Character Name: Hilda Goneril
Faction: Free Cities

Execution Plans: She has no immediate desire to attend. If close CR would want her support there, she would go to support them but she won't be watching it.

Gala Plans: Hilda will absolutely be attending the gala! She'll be doing a full on day of gala prep with Jace and Caitlyn (skincare! shopping! the whole nine yards!), but will be out and about shopping with her Femblem family beforehand. Anyone that needs help shopping is more than welcome to flag her down because she'll be more than happy to help. She'll even fuss over you and do your make-up and hair if you want.

She'll be checking out the artist alleyways, potentially scoping out some acts for the Old Public Hall and generally enjoying herself otherwise. Her contribution is TBD but will likely be offering jewelry and accessories made by her to borrow for the gala. If there's time she can probably whip you something up from scratch if you ask nicely.

General plans: She's open for all the nonsense and chaos! I'd love her to meet new FC arrivals and link up with her current CR. If you want anything specific, feel free to add me at timescars hit me up on discord, or let's plot below.

jen's trio

[sorser]

Gideon Nav | Free Cities

[frontlinetitties]

Player Name: Kam
Character Name: Gideon Nav
Faction: Free Cities

Execution Plans: She has mixed feelings about the execution and probably won't attend.

Gala Plans: She also has mixed feelings about a gala held after an execution and thinks it's kinda gauche, BUT she's also had a shitty time lately and wants to let go a bit. So she'll be there!! She won't be contributing anything in particular aside from her presence ahah, she's not an organiser or a performer. She's more an eater of desserts! She'll need a roommate though! And if someone wanted to help her pick out an outfit that's more extravagant than her usual practical clothes, she could probably use it. Her own suggestions will likely be weird (flaming skulls! Swords!!).

General plans: wide open right now, she's still trying to bounce back from the ordeal in the pit so could just use some light-heartedness this month.

Amanda's Girls

[tobeclosetohim]

aloy | solvunn

[lightkeeping]

Player Name: Whit
Character Name: Aloy
Faction: Solvunn

Execution Plans: Probably not but also maybe watching from afar just to see How They Do It.

Gala Plans: Guess!! Who!!! Is bad at galas (Aloy). She’ll begrudgingly attend because she’s curious about how the Solvunn elders are going to spin all this, plus it doesn’t hurt to kind of keep her ear to the ground about things. That said, WHY ARE WE CELEBRATING all of this is terrible. She may needed to be persuaded to participate and if anyone is feeling kind of weird about all this she would probably GREATLY ENJOY commiserating with like-minded people who are just kind of a little traumatized and sus.

General plans: Aloy will thrive a little more outside the actual gala, and will be found around the Secondary Settlement trading for things and generally doing rpg protagonist stuff. Would love to maybe try to get her to open up to people, now that it looks like she’ll be involved with the conclave. Would also love to check in with any pit buddies! You know, to see how everyone's holding up, or something.

Forced roommate situation also good

As always hit me up on plurk at whitticus or discord at whitticus#8139

Lenore | Thorne

[beloyaltome]

Player Name: Marlowe
Character Name: Lenore
Faction: Thorne

Execution Plans: Lenore wasn't planning on attending the execution until she heard that it was invoking an old god. She's just started a research sub-quest on the old gods, so she'll be there.

Gala Plans: Lenore will be there with bells on (probably not literally). She's super excited about a glamorous party and even more excited about a shopping budget. Her contribution is going to be makeovers / fashion, so if you want a shopping buddy or fashion advice, she is SO ready. Interested in both assigned seating and mingling plans at the gala!

General plans: Assignment of a random roommate in Hayle sounds fun. She'll be dazzled by the city and excitedly exploring the city and exhibits, getting that illusory magic makeover. That spending allowance is going almost entirely toward clothes shopping and that's her most important priority here, but she'll very eagerly help with shopping choices and fashion advice for others.

geralt of rivia | free cities

[gynvael]

Player Name: Noa
Character Name: Geralt of Rivia
Faction: Free Cities

Execution Plans: He is, but not really for satisfaction, he just wants to confirm for himself that she's dead and that it's (hopefully) over. Probably won't feel any kind of way about it overall. Okay, maybe a little for satisfaction.

Gala Plans: The usual suspects will be dressing Geralt up (Julie and Jaskier)! So he'll probably be slightly fancier and have a braid or two in his hair. Geralt isn't into parties, he's here for the free food and booze, and because his fam will convince him to go. He'll be drinking a lot.

He's gonna room with Julie, and if he's not with Julie, he'll be with Jaskier and/or Ciri. But he's pretty easy to catch and he's kind of hard to miss in a crowd. He can be persuaded to carry or lift stuff if you look like you need a hand.

General plans: Geralt's missed a lot from being kidnapped, so I'd love for him to bump into new arrivals in the Free Cities. I'm pretty loose with his plans, so I'm up for anything!!

lestat de lioncourt | thorne

[malicieux]

Player Name: Laus.
Character Name: Lestat de Lioncourt.
Faction: Thorn.

Execution Plans: Of course he's going to attend. This was prime entertainment back in his day, anyway.

Gala Plans: Lestat loves a party. He also has been wanting to go to Hayle so this is perfect. He'll enjoy getting new clothes and helping the fashionably challenged. Also, he would love to help provide some music to the event and show off in an environment he's finally comfortable in.

General plans: He wants to get to know as much as he can about Hayle. He'll certainly take advantage of the ability to get to roam and maybe learn more about the vampire population that resides there. If anyone wants to be roommates, I'm game for that too. Generally speaking, I'm pretty open, so hit me up here or at blackspire.

reno | thorne

[oversurge]

Player Name: Noa
Character Name: Reno
Faction: Thorne

Execution Plans: MAYBE...reno has no investment in any of this, but he might go out of sheer curiosity.

Gala Plans: Hell yeah. Thorne loves its parties apparently?? this is the second one they've hosted. Anyway, he'll be dressing up to go. He will not be contributing except to point out if he thinks you look fashionably challenged. He'll probably be interested in exploring the city esp with how, uh, shiny everything is.

General plans: just here for a good time.

diana prince | the free cities

[monomachy]

Player Name: iola
Character Name: Diana Prince
Faction: The Free Cities

Execution Plans: Diana will attend the execution, but only because she is interested in this ritual to the Old Gods. She was heavily against Josselyn's execution, and will be stone-faced the entire time, very unlike her usual self. She will arrive just before it happens and leave right after it concludes, not lingering anywhere.

Gala Plans: Diana will attend the gala in Libertas. She'll be rather sober the entire time, but as someone who saw first-hand the destruction wrought on the people of the city and who helped extensively with relief efforts, she will want to share this joyous occasion with them (even if she herself won't be very jovial). She will contribute a recitation of a poem as soon as I choose a few verses. Mostly she will keep to the sidelines, and do her best to catch up with her CR and perhaps meet some new Summoned.

General plans: She's got a roomie already, but will be open to hanging out with just about anyone. She respects the democratic process, but sees the execution choice as a big L for the Summoned.

Faction: solvunn

Execution Plans: wanda will be going, because she wants to make sure josselyn remains dead and gone. she'll find no joy in it, but figures it'll personally give her closure.

Gala Plans: wanda will be bringing baked goods! all kind of in the vein of eastern european foods, so she'll be delighted for anyone who enjoys it. likewise, if anyone wants to help her prepare them before the gala...! otherwise, she will be there and keeping a little quiet, but open for company.

General plans: wanda will be present at both occasions, and i'm happy to have her mingle about! for those in solvunn that i've planned catch-all events with, we can make them happen during the gala if that's easier.

i also kind of want her to try fishing and fall into the pond. she may yet laugh!!

Wylan Van Eck | Free Cities

[demoexpert]

Player Name: Courtney
Character Name: Wylan Van Eck
Faction: Free Citites

Execution Plans: Unsure. Wylan is new, so he wasn't around for what happened, but it did affect his friends here so if they are going he would probably go as a show of support?

Gala Plans: Wylan is definitely attending the gala! I'm really tempted to have him play some music, but he's still very new and he does not have a flute. So he will just be around enjoying the gardens and the music and maybe shopping a little? He does need something to wear but he's not going to know where to even begin. And he will be very interested in this new magic and anything nerdy that's going on.

General plans: He's going to probably be rooming with Kaz so his accommodations are spoken for, but I would like him to meet people and get a lot of CR. He's still new and still trying to adjust but he needs some friends. Some science people to bond with or music people. Or really anything at all.

Jonathan Crane | Free Cities

[restingstitchface]

Player Name: Lisa
Character Name: Jonathan Crane
Faction: Free Cities

Execution Plans: Absolutely. Exile that fucker. Wait. Wrong execution. In short, he will be peeping at the spectacle.

Gala Plans: Crane will be attending for the freebies and occupying a private room. He will haunt the artistic exhibitions before attending the feast. He will engage people in conversation and I would love some poor victim to be his seating partner. No, partners. Because he can easily get up and sit next to someone else.

General plans: Crane looks the part but can he actually dance? PROBABLY NOT. Who wants to find out?
