EVENT PLOTTING: THE COST OF INNOCENCE

The Cost of Innocence
As the Innocent's Moon reaches its peak, a shift will begin to be noticed across Horos. At first it appears in individual cases that could be explained by regular ennui or poor mental health, but as the zenith arrives, the clear supernaturality of the trend will become clear. Horosians, first in handfuls and then en masse, are succumbing to a strange malady characterized by a complete and utter indifference to the world around them.

This manifests most grievously with its victims losing all sense of self preservation, sometimes falling in combat or at the claws of wild beasts with a look of serenity on their faces. Others allow their hands to be burned in the fire as they cook, or are struck by falling objects that they may have otherwise avoided. There is no specific will to die; no, instead there is simply the absence of a will to fight or struggle, whether it be for their lives or anything else.

On the tenth day of Inoseri the cases may only be one in a thousand, but will gradually become more common as the full moon approaches, eventually settling at around one in fifty. Curiously, however, these ratios are not uniform; Venera, a city under the Regent's rule in the grasslands of the south, has an infection rate straying closer to one in ten. It is not entirely clear why, but something about Venera is causing the ailment to run rampant, and without intervention the results could become catastrophic to the citizen's way of life.

On the side of the Kenoma, to investigate will be an order. After all, Venera is the breadbasket of the Regent's empire, and without their abundant farmland being worked by its people, there will be food shortages continent wide. Even more important will be the Regent's implication that there is another force behind this infection... one that they will allege is the fault of the Pleroma.

The Pleroma themselves will have fewer immediate clues, but in the days leading up to the moon's zenith will experience dreams of depthless white. Word will spread to Godsblood soon enough, telling of the terrible phenomenon sweeping through Venera. Though they won't have a way of knowing why exactly, the Pleroma that hear of or witness the malady will have a feeling that they will find its source there.

INCLUDED EVENT PROMPTS
◆ VENERA: Once a city embodying culture, passion, and romance, Venera has fallen on hard times since the loss of its patron Aion nearly a century ago. While still prized for their handicrafts, particularly their elaborate weaves and diverse artistic masterworks, they are scorned continent wide for their cowardice and desperate supplications to the Regent. Venerans are a people focused almost entirely inward, happy to ignore even the most grievous of wrongs if it meant continuing their way of life, and this was true even before the mysterious ailment took hold. Now it's unclear if they will even have the strength to go on.

◆ INNOCENT LEGACY: Those from the Legacy of the Innocent will continue to feel a sense of presence with them as the full moon arrives, with that presence only getting stronger as the month goes on. They may even hear a voice whispering in their ear, though they cannot make out the words.

◆ INNOCENCE CONTAGION: While at first the malady spreading across the continent will not seem to affect the Aions, once they arrive in Venera that will no longer be the case. Instead of repelling the effects, they will instead begin leeching it from the inflicted civilians they encounter, its power drawn into them like a sponge. As a result, they will end up taking on the malady's symptoms but enhanced and gone wild with their spiritual potency. Brand new side effects will be cultivated within them.

Along with the risk of a trance-like indifference to life, they may encounter any of the following: daydreams so deep they become subjectively real, a loss of sense of self, excessive malleability, or a loss of short term memory. They may also be several physical symptoms, including: a body-wide loss of pigment (partial or total), flesh that becomes stiff or porcelain-like that hinders movement and cracks (or breaks off entirely) when forced, the emergence of white feathers or wings from anywhere on the body, halos of light, or singular horns growing from the forehead. Advanced cases may result in becoming completely petrified, their very presence becoming a beacon for the power causing this. Physical and mental side effects may happen together or independently.

These side effects may be additionally enhanced for characters from the following Legacies:

Innocent, Lover, Celebrant: As the Legacies most craving of comfort and the most welcoming of stagnation, Aions from these Legacies will not just more readily accept the contagion, but feel the urge to actively spread it to others. It will feel like doing them a kindness, as if simply removing the trouble associated with desire, action, and choice. Those that succumb to these temptations will be able to cause or speed their effects in other Aions with a touch. This feeling can be resisted, but is nagging. The arrival of the contagion will feel peaceful and right, as if they are communing with a higher force that deems it a necessity.

Visionary, Firebrand, Artisan: As the Legacies most attuned to feelings of unrest, obsession, change, innovation, and passion, these Aions will experience a violent clash between the energies of the Innocence Contagion and the energies of their own spirits. The same physical effects will manifests, but far more aggressively, with the Innocence warring against their natural essence. Their stone-like skin may crack and shatter painfully, the wings and feathers emerging with blood and violence instead of peace. Their predisposition towards resistance seems to only make the contagion attack them more doggedly, as if particularly determined to extinguish the threat they represent.

◆ THE CURE: In the face of this contagion, a solution will eventually become clear. The excess of Innocence can be banished by causing its opposite. This means, the cure to the infection is to inflict upset in whatever way possible: by dragging up their worst memories, getting a rise out of them, causing them pain, destroying their inner paradises with communion. Empathic connections during this event will be intensified, allowing characters to delve into each other's mindscapes. Ironically, causing your allies misery and torment may be the key to their salvation... but do you have the heart to inflict it?


MOD NOTE: All characters who go to Venera and participate in the event log will be awarded 1 Token, so please make sure to mark that on your AC. You will not receive the token if you don't claim it.

[personal profile] perfectlygoodbird 2022-05-13 08:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Being an Innocent, unfortunately, Meteion is going to be an infection vector at some point, though she will be Very Sad to be involved like that.

She will be going to Venera to try to help at first, but I figure being an empath, it will be only too easy for her to succumb without help to snap her out of it. So, things I'm up for:

-Cross-faction shenanigans: Meteion is decidedly noncombatant still, so she's unlikely to attack anyone. She is here to help, please let her help! (Or, if failing to help, well...smack her around a little?)
--Cure: At first she's more likely to be the problem, rather than the solution, but once she's told that yes, this is the way to fix people, she will.
--memory stuff because WOW THAT COULD BE A MINEFIELD for a lot of people

Father Paul Hill | Martyr | Kenoma

[personal profile] vivificantem 2022-05-13 08:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Paul is definitely going to be in Venera; he's going to be trying to at least heal the physical wounds these people are inflicting on themselves, and that includes any of the Aions regardless of faction. (He understands what the Regent has said regarding the Pleroma but some things are going to be disregarded for now.) He's also willing to engage civilly with them for the first while, for anyone who wants to.

He's also going to be hit fairly hard with infection, seeing as he's going to be all up in this trying to assist people. Please feel free to fuck him up at your leisure, should you want to.

Basically whatever works for you guys, I am willing to provide. I'm more than happy to top-level for this (I tend to prefer doing that anyway, so it works out decently for me), so just let me know what you'd like to do if anything.

Jae Ha ❧ Pleroma ❧ Wanderer

[personal profile] surefooted 2022-05-13 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't have any plans to have Jae Ha afflicted, so my plotting for this event will largely be him helping others stay safe, and eventually helping cure them, along with investigations. It's definitely something he's going to struggle with, but knowing that it could save them in the end, even at the potential cost of his own relationship with them, means it's worth it in his mind. He'll hate it the entire time, though, and definitely spend a lot of time trying other methods.

OFFERING:
Travel partner - He'll be heading to Venera to investigate and want to stay connected with any Pleroma friends and allies just in case! This can be handwaved or we can thread out fun things before the chaos. He can also help anyone who needs help traveling by carrying them on his back or in his arms. He can jump long distances, even if he does get exhausted eventually.

Fellow investigators - He will obviously want to team up with anyone he can, though anyone sick and also investigating he will worry over. Still, he will work together with others to figure out what he can about this whole illness.

Pleroma caring for Kenoma - In other words, he will care about everyone, not just his own side. As expected. He's capable in combat and dodging since his leg helps him "fly," so I'd be happy to explore this even if the Kenoma character were to resist or dislike it in any way. Let him be nosy and caring.

Hurt/comfort? - For anyone sick, he will do what he can to help! He can't really dress a wound if your limb breaks off, but he can certainly try to force characters into bed, bring them food, force them to drink water, and go out into danger to try and find solutions for them. If anyone wants cutesy stuff I am a sucker for it...

Violence/Trauma! - Of course, in the end this is the solution, so it will have to come to this eventually. For anyone in desperate need or in real danger, he will do what he must to help. So. If you'd like to work out potential mindscape invasions or other ways to bring emotional turmoil that's fine, however he will absolutely be trying physical pain as a first solution rather than emotional. Anyone want to play out some fight scenes? Hurt/comfort could come after? Or maybe fight scenes that turn out not working and then Jae Ha has to bring out the emotional weapons. Anything like that sounds juicy and delicious.


That's all I can think of for now, but if you have any ideas or specific interests with Jae Ha, let me know! As a note, I won't be top leveling for this event, so I intend to tag around instead. But I can definitely write closed starters for anything planned here.

misa amane | kenoma + lover

[personal profile] lifespanned 2022-05-13 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
whew Misa is a Lover, so she will be! experiencing things. steeples fingers.

PRE-CONTAGION — gimme pleromies... for pleromas that already know her and want to catch up, she will give you all of (read: some) the hot goss in achamoth. she'll be pretty friendly to the pleromas all things considered, and will answer openly if anyone asks why she went to the kenoma (she wants to create a ~better world~ where only kind people live in it.) if you're looking for glimpses into the kenomas' motivations, she'll be pretty frank with her okay-ness in sacrifice for the "greater good." let's have some moral dilemmas!!

CONTAGION
  • boyfriend daydreams... mistaking other characters for her bf... come here for a kiss

  • she'll be spreading the contagion after giving in to the temptation! she's already suuuuper touchy, so it might not be too noticeable that she seems eager to touch and cuddle others. if someone tries to evade her too much, she'll start turning them to stone with her new powers to hold them in place while she infects them.

  • CURE
  • so, misa's boyfriend that she talks so much about isn't what she makes him out to be. her mindscape will be full of their encounters where it is obvious that he at best tolerates her, and at worst completely resents her. the easiest way to hurt her would be to implicate that she's a burden to him/that he'll never love her... or that he's already, y'know, dead due to the whole our worlds blew up thing 🙃

  • alternatively, in her mindscape will be her numerous brushes with death, including the brutal murder of both her parents. she can be frightened by being reminded of these things, or tbh... the #1 physical thing that will cause a visceral reaction from her is to restrain her. sometimes u have bad memories of being tied to a chair for 50 days,

  • CURING OTHERS
  • misa can be cruel, so if needed, she will drag up what she needs to in order to save fellow kenoma. but only the kenoma!

  • pleroma.... she will not put as much effort into saving 😬 misa would go into pleroma mindscapes with the intention of not snapping them out of what they're going thru, or pointedly making it worse... 😔 if you would like someone to worsen your character's delusions and paradise, she will butter them right up. however, she could also be swayed into accidentally saving a pleroma if she saw something in their mind palace that she really related to (not being loved... family death... etc)

  • POTENTIAL CONFLICTS
  • another miscellaneous thing that may foster cross-faction cr: when clear-headed, misa will use her petrifying ability on pleromas that she can see are not infected/in the early stages of their infection, as she will view the petrifying side effects of the disease as a good cover to practice her ability. basically, if u want to be a guinea pig... she will gaslight you and be like what are you talking about this is clearly part of the disease? haha soooo crazy . if you'd like to get into a slight pvp over this and rng, i'd be down for that as well!

  • this got long but basically: i'm game for anything!! i'll be tl-ing most likely, but i'm absolutely down to do closed specific threads, too.

    [personal profile] killandrecycle 2022-05-13 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
    Oh boy. This one is gonna hit the poor little demon pretty hard. Already concerned about getting punished if she ignores a tugging at her mind a second time, she'll be headed to Venera the moment she feels compelled to. She's going to be thinking there is going to be some chance to prove her value waiting there. She might even be a little excited about it. And then boom! She's gonna be some sort of weird bloody feathered half-statue thing. She's normally a prickly sort the way it is, but this is going to drive her to all new levels of it. She's likely to lash out at people from EITHER side. And not just with words.

    She's not compassionate enough to actually be there to attempt to help people. Though she might do so on accident, as she's the type who intentionally tries to bother people because acting cruel is what reminds her she's even alive. Yes, its not a healthy lifestyle, but she's a literal demon, it just sort of comes natural to her. I am looking for the following things:

    A chance to interact with Pleroma: Other then briefly in the cave, she has never even seen most of you. And back then she just had nothing on her mind except her own suffering and maybe a side of plotting plans to murder soldiers she never ended up carrying out. This could be at any point of her infection, early on when she is still mostly herself, in the middle where she is going a little crazy, or full on weird colorless bloody angeldemon thing. It depends on if you're looking to talk, or defend yourself when she goes all pain crazy, or possibly even help her. (Why would you help her, she's terrible!)

    Also, a chance to interact with her fellow Kenoma: She normally doesn't try to get close to people at all, not particularly seeing any point in it. So she honestly only knows a few of YOU as well. Its understandable, she's a self-centered and obnoxious little thing who doesn't exactly endear herself to others, but she's gonna be needing a bit of help this time. Even she might be willing to admit that when it gets bad enough for her. I am equally as open to scornful mocking of her weakness if you are cruel enough to do such a thing to what, for all intents and purposes, appears to be a suffering child. Her being a demon isn't common knowledge, after all, though a few hints that she is older then she looks have been dropped to a couple of you.

    Give her the suffering she deserves: Its going to really be the only way to stop her from turning into some porcelain girl and breaking into peaces. I am VERY open to mindscape invaders, and want to give out some info about how she ended up the way she is in the first place. This is ALSO open to those who both have good intentions, trying to help her recover from the disease, and those who may desire the info to use as leverage to emotionally manipulate her later. I know some of you are probably cruel enough to do it. Meanies.

    Also, she will give YOU suffering: Maybe you catch her at a moment she isn't under the influence of it quite as bad. As mentioned earlier she won't try to help people on PURPOSE, but her petty nature means that if she is suffering, she wants to spread it as much as possible. If you need someone who won't hold back the cruelty of their words no matter who she's talking to, this little demon is your girl. Her scornful mocking might be just the sort of thing you need to stop turning into a blood angel monster thing.

    [personal profile] snakeandfangs 2022-05-13 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
    overall, toge will be doing his best to avoid others as the contagion becomes more and more prevalent. he has a pretty strong sense of self; his training combined with the personal responsibilities of not accidentally killing anyone who might hear him say the wrong words in a crowded area certainly does that to someone, so!

    i'm thinking that he'll definitely sport one of those neat lil' horns as well as a halo when it comes to physical symptoms! mentally, though he'll be mostly in control of his ability to spread it by touch, there may be a time or two when he loses focus and he might try to use his cursed speech to draw people in to infect them--- only to then repel them with those same words when he comes to his senses. i've included a description of his ability as well as opt-outs if needed on my info page here.

    i'm also down for someone inflicting any kind of pain on toge... be it through his past failures or straight up fighting him.

    AND OF COURSE--- pls give me kenomas. toge will be helping up until things really go to shit? come meet the boy who speaks in ingredients up until when he has to command you to do something else, like. idk. hug.

    lumine | wanderer | pleroma

    [personal profile] traversal 2022-05-13 11:25 pm (UTC)(link)
    i got busy this past week due to country shenanigans, but lumine's here to try and find solutions because that's ... what she normally does in canon. i don't really have a lot of stuff planned out, but i do have some ideas for traveling, investigating, possibly getting infected, and curing/helping people out:

    VENERA. so lumine will definitely head to venera not just to check out the incident but also for a bit of exploration because, yknow, traveler and all. so travel companions, exploration buddies and infection chasers/investigators would be great, since she’ll also be looking for maps on the side because why not, multitasking! best time for her to get kenoma CR too, she’s pretty civil and all (won't even try to convince them to join their faction) unless someone attacks her.

    INFECTION. if infected, she’ll be pretty indifferent—also loss of skin and eye colour (similar to here, except this is her twin brother so yeah!) and the cracking and falling apart of her brand new wings. there’s not a lot of things that would rile her up but inflict her emotional damage, please. i have a few mindscape ideas below but, lol.
    — abandonment of khaenri’ah while it’s being set on fire
    — her brother leaving her and going into the void
    — failing to save people from the delusion madness in watatsumi, oh man


    CURE. lumi will be actively looking for the cure, and she actually won’t distinguish between kenoma or pleroma because of protag mindset. so when worse comes to worst, and she honestly would rather not but eh, she’ll do what she can to beat the crap out of someone to wake them up. she’d most likely prefer beating them up physically first, but i’d be happy to work with whatever mindscapes that you have!

    AFTERMATH. again, any assistance she offers is for both factions. this includes dragging people to safety, helping tend to their wounds or uh broken limbs, having conversations to keep their spirits up, she’ll even cook food for those in need. so more kenoma cr here, let’s go.


    i probably won't top-level, except for closed threads and all. but i'll definitely go around hitting pleromies & kenomies up.

    Ciel | Kenoma | Martyr

    [personal profile] expiera 2022-05-13 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
    As a nosy meddler who has in her official bio can't leave lazy or depressed people alone Martyr bonus may or may not play into this, Ciel will absolutely be everywhere this event. She won't be too cripplingly affected, the brand of apathy she's most familiar with was mostly self-imposed, but she has plenty of trauma she can dole out and isn't afraid to cause psychic OR physical damage to others regardless of sect.

    Investigation: She'll be among the first to head out, and will not aggro Pleroma as the well-being of the townspeople come before it, plus Venera is way too nice to be a battleground 😔 Would love to make new Pleroma CR especially, but always open to touch base with existing ones from either side! Shopping, stuffing your face, looking for books, hitting up the locals, etc... She'll keep her shard hidden throughout, and should blend in relatively well.
    Infection: Will look paler at most but retain her human form, having a strong grip and perception of her own humanity + sense of self is one of the few arguably healthy thing she has going for her. She may space out a bit, hang around some local bakeries, and get confused about being a worker there, perfectly harmless confusions to have don't worry about it!
    Cure 1: Offer sensations of intense physical torture through communion. Want to know what it feels like to burn alive? Be decapitated? Have your internal organs cut out while still conscious? Dissolving in acid? Etc etc etc... The how isn't important but she can provide pretty accurate memories experiences of how all that feels, so maybe transferring how it's like over will jolt some afflicted out of their apathy (and yes, anyone who undergoes this ""treatment"" is free to ??? at her about how she even knows this later--). OTA!
    **Disclaimer: The descriptions do NOT have to be graphic, they probably won't be tbh. I'm very pea-brained anyway pls forgive ;; but thanks to communion passing on sensations without the memories is totally doable unless you're a Martyr in which case more stuff may spill out right, so,
    Cure 2: New power unlock - Guilt overdose. As per mod note I'll ONLY use this with player permission and advance plotting, we can arrange for will save rolls if that's something people may be interested in. I can offer using this as trigger/plot device to say, draw up a specific guilt-related mindscape from character A for character B to explore in, Ciel herself can be busy and not get involved at all aside from establishing the initial setup. What I'm looking to do with this is maybe play out the awakening/discovery of the power itself during the event, since it's brewed up to be a perfect occasion for finding out. This doesn't only extend to using it on someone else, but also on herself - because if she finds out she's got a new power, then obviously she should test it on herself first to verify what it is/if it's something she really wants to use on other people, right? At which point, uhhhh maybe this would be a closer CR prompt only limited to one person, as it will involve a lot of murder and blood and possession and suicide idealization and all that stuff.

    TLDR I'm flexible with this and they do say sharing is caring, if you have ideas you'd like to realize with CR through this newly approved power for the event, let's plot! o/

    👀

    okay so! caveat first: i'm expecting to be pretty absent the last full week of the month, so i'll be keeping event plans limited to some tag outs and/or closed starters and will need some backtagging grace.

    that said! rand will be heading to venera, and i'd really like to focus on contagion + cure + aftermath things. he will very much be interested in helping out the sick and get...afflicted....himself,,

    in terms of physical effects, rand will struggle with losing his sense of self, including probably forgetting basic facts about himself, and will develop a growing halo of light that might get uncomfortably bright! i'm fully down for people curing him via physical or emotional pain, especially because he's pretty new and i dddon't think most people would know enough about him to be able to go in for emotional (at least w/o mindscape!). regardless. fuck him up, fam.

    his mindscape is still up in the air but depending on interest may include some greatest hits like (1) the monster attack on his home/sleepy village that was partially his fault, (2) watching his friend slowly die and know there's nothing he can do about it, (3) finding out a lot of what he knew about himself wasn't true, (4) some misery around his childhood sweetheart and the life they can't have, or (5) scary confrontations with a big bad!

    also here for him to try to help break other people out of contagion or have some quiet regrouping in aftermath! he'll definitely want to comfort people, but just don't look at him thanks,

    [personal profile] comelately 2022-05-14 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
    MY FIRST EVENT....

    Johnny will be going mostly because everyone else is going. That said, transportation is still kind of a problem for him - he's got a wheelchair, but that does not help him get to Venera, so if anyone has a mount / transportation / can levitate him or something please hit me up.

    once he's there, as a Firebrand, he will be having a bad time, because Johnny has the worst luck in the universe confirmed. I don't think I'll be doing much with the stone skin / broken limbs bits bc he's already dealing with similar, but he'll probably have some gnarly violent feather explosions and go back and forth between the weird sickness-caused resignation state and freaking right out.

    CURE: since he normally doesn't talk about himself or his issues, I'd love for someone to get into his brain!! I can offer some of the worst parts of his life (watch his dad tell him he wishes he was dead!! watch him crawl on his hands through the desert for hours!! AND MORE) or some nice things to be ruined (look at Johnny enjoying a bromantic coffee with his best friend Gyro under the stars... it would be a shame if something happened...)

    alternatively, i'd be happy to volunteer him to be a dick to your character. He will actually want to help people that are suffering and he doesn't really care if you're a Kenoma or a Pleroma tbh.

    Silco ➔ Visionary ➔ Kenoma

    [personal profile] zauneyete 2022-05-14 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
    EARLY ON, Silco will likely hang back and hang out with Emet-Selch and research stuff because getting in the line of fire is like, the opposite of what he would want to do during the start of the event. However, once convinced that it will probably allow him to kiss ass at the Regent to get more power, he'll join the rest of the Kenoma faction, and be subject to the dire effects.

    CONTAGION
    As he is a Visionary, Silco will be extremely effected by the contagion.
    ➔ Prior to losing any pieces or his skin completely turning to porcelain his Power is activated by touch, details are here, so if you are interested in berserking before or after he's cured, let me know! This can be an accidental touch! (with player permission)
    ➔ Silco's gonna get pretty hardened skin, and flake off a lot of shattered pieces
    ➔ Eventually he will be Stuck and unable to move, he'll likely try, and lose a hand/limb/whatever the spirit takes me to remove from the effort of attempting.
    ➔ He'll likely grow a single horn (god no halo lmao) and any feathers that burst out will immediately covered in blood and fall out -- no wings will manifest, as he'll fight the contagion pretty hard just naturally -- so he'll experience the really bad effects pretty much constantly

    CURE
    There will be plenty of trauma to go around! The "inner paradise" that Silco will manifest through communion is about the dirtiest drug filled city with wild drugs, science, and pretty much an uncontrolled population. Think the Entertainment District on Achamoth except poor and underground next to a polluted river.
    ➔ There are plenty of avenues to attack, including the fact that other people have told him his daughter kills him! He did not believe them at the time, but now's the perfect time to bring things like that up.
    ➔ Pushing the mindscape will also yield Silco's own drowning and eye trauma and you might hit the jackpot of wolf dilf Vander and the entire mess/revenge/problem with that! Hit me up and we can plan!
    ➔ I have no qualms with Silco getting physically hurt in the mindscape either!

    IN ADDITION:
    ➔ If you want your character to be Cured, Silco is a cruel and horrible man. Once he is out, the fact that he was seen is going to make him keen on hurting others, so if you're a Kenoma and want Silco to encounter/"cure", please hit me up! I'll be poking around in other plotting comments as well! He will absolutely probably do anything to cause damage, because what do we do when we experience emotions that make us feel things? We go out and hurt other people, because that's going to solve every problem.

    Cross Faction
    Early on, Akua will be extremely keen on parlay with the Kenoma. She may seek those who she doesn't recognize out that appear to be unaffected, and will be interested in talking or even investigating alongside the Kenoma if the opportunity comes up. She's a skilled sorceress, but her healing skills are closer to using magic like a surgeon, so she will not make efforts beyond trying to cauterize any wounds -- and well. Ow.

    Infection
    Akua will thankfully not have as violent of a reaction, given that she is a Sovereign.
    ➻ She will manifest a halo (and find it extremely ironic), she will also lose pigment in her already necrotized limbs, which means that her movement, while it had been improving -- as she started to not think about it as a permanent injury -- has manifested again as stiff and difficult to move.
    ➻ She already doesn't have much...care for people -- despite how she tries to pretend and act -- so that will manifest more, and her dream-like trance will manifest.
    ➻ Given Akua's particularities, she will waver between a Massive Flying city or an idealized magic city, neither of which are actually real.

    Cure
    Akua won't be quite so vulnerable to pain given that she was dead once, but characters that are keen on causing physical pain are welcome to do so, I think in her idealized mindscape, they will likely encounter heavy, story driven resistance
    ➻ However, if in the imaginary illusions, Characters are able to make it through the "story" as it were, Akua will be particularly vulnerable to accusations of being beyond redemption or undeserving of love/friendship, oops
    ➻ Akua is extremely keen on "stories" at this point in her life, and will likely in her mindscape erect "patterns of three", which means that 3 similar things will happen, in a sequence, just for funsies.

    When out, Akua will go work to heal both Pleroma and Kenoma individuals, as best she can.
    ➻ As a Praesi Noble, she has a cutting Wit, and can cut with a verbal blade, and will be extremely willing to hurt both allies and foes.
    ➻ She will have little qualms using other painful methods, if you're down for it! She will attempt dissipation if nothing seems to work (with player permission obviously) and will also attempt to use magic and fire if needed.

    If you want to do anything else, or any ideas pique your interest, hit me up! I'm really keen on doing fun/interesting things with her!

    WOOOO HOOOOOO.

    broad event thoughts
  • Venera. Matt's going there ASAP!

  • Innocent contagion, Visionary bad times edition. I love body horror, so Matt will definitely be getting cracked porcelain skin, weird halo effects, feathers in uncomfortable places. I think the psychological aspect of it that he's most likely to fall into is weird, hyper-realistic daydreams.

  • Cure. That said, I'd like for Matt to get over his Innocence sickness fairly quickly because I think it would be rad to push him into harshing people's buzzes for their own good.


  • seeking cr/things i wanna do (cw: some discussion of sexual assault/intimate partner violence)
    Some of these are event-specific, but a lot are just "things Merc is thinking about at this time."

  • PLEROMAS COME TO MY ARMS. I need cross-faction CR, babies. Matt will believe the Regent about the Pleroma causing these issues to an extent, but is unlikely to believe it's deliberate and will be open to investigating alongside Pleroma folks if the opportunity arises. (He may have some critiques of your life choices but he'll try to be polite.) He will try to cure anyone and everyone.

  • Shared (day)dreams. (this is where the cw's live) I am always about this! Let me take you on a dream journey. In terms of dreams/daydreams as a vehicle for people to learn about Matt's worst times, there's a buffet of issues to choose from: he summoned a demon when he was a teen that gave him a creepy scar, he had an abusive vampire ex, his parents soft-disowned him back on Earth. Particularly for existing CR, I'd be happy to dig into any of the above.

  • Let Matt tough-love you into wellness. This could be as gentle as poking holes in your dreamworld via communion, or as painful as literally setting you on fire. He'd be very sorry about setting you on fire, but if he ran out of ideas fire is usually his Plan C.

    ETA: OH MY GOD I FORGOT SOMETHING IMPORTANT??? Matt has a power that could potentially interact curiously with this whole deal: sexy psychic radio. TL;DR is if he touches you, he can "open a channel" between your bodies that imparts information about what it's like to be the other person, tilted towards the sensual/sexual. Matt has described this ability here.

  • Visionary things! Visionaries, I wanna do something weird with the enhanced shared Legacy vibes. Stronger-than-average communion? Showing up at the same place at the same time for Reasons? idk come at me with your thoughts

  • Speaking of apathy and stuff. Matt's minor power just got approved! I'd love to find chances to play around with that, as a charisma power with the potential to make people feel attracted to him is .... just the worst, for him.

  • And speaking of "the worst things," a potential PVP scenario. Matt has just told Ciel about sympathetic magic, which basically means "stealing a strand of your hair to cast scary spells on you." If anybody is interested in THAT cross-faction CR, with Matt either failing or succeeding, let me know. It strikes me as something longer term, and I'd like to make sure I discuss OOCly with any involved parties so we're on the same page.

  • Does anyone want to kiss? I don't want a ship in the traditional sense, and like, obviously everyone here has more important priorities, but ........ if anyone wants to kiss, Matt always wants to kiss. That's just perpetual offered CR.


  • As ever, I am on plurk at [plurk.com profile] artistformerlyknownas for plotting and pinging purposes! In addition, you can find me on Discord as euphony#2703. I don't do game Discords in terms of spending time there, but I am always happy to hear from you one-on-one for CR chatter or plotting purposes.

    hiccup haddock iii | visionary | pleroma

    [personal profile] dragon_rider 2022-05-14 02:17 am (UTC)(link)
    🐉 VENERA
    Hiccup's been interested in checking out Venera since Tehri mentioned it wasn't aligned to the Regent out of devotion. He'll want to see what he can do to help the people there and won't care if the person he's investigating with is Pleroma or Kenoma so long as their goals align (figuring out the source, helping others — the latter isn't super necessary but he'll side eye anyone who's not). He's also mostly genuinely interested in learning about other cities so! There's that for like 5 minutes because...


    🐉 INNOCENCE CONTAGION
    As a Visionary he'll ultimately be having a fun difficult time. The physical effects I was considering are the pigment loss, bloody wings/feathers, horn??? horn. I'd be me on the side of mental effects and given his childhood daydreams is definitely something. Specifically daydreams that probably end dangerously — Thinking something is solid ground when it's not, not noticing an active thread, etc. Loss of sense of self is my secondary one that I'm trying to think up how to handle! I'm thinking loss of goals/motivations aligned which will make the tug-a-war with the contagion worse, but still considering more.


    🐉 THE CURE
    Admittedly, I kind of want to angle this event where Hiccup isn't much use to others. Mostly because if I stay on the side of heavier mental-effects, Hiccup's become the kind of person who's hardest on himself and was pulled from a point where he was convincing himself he was nothing. So! I would like it to take him longer to get free of the contagion and also may be (?) somewhat more inclined to anger first — since we do see a couple times in the series he can be pushed enough and if it effects him longer it's possible.

    (cw: for parental death)
    That said!! Please I'd love to see the use of empathic connecitions and mindscapes used. Hiccup doesn't have a super traumatic history compared to a lot of people but some of his worst memories include being shunned/treated as an outsider by his entire community until fifteen, "are you willing to risk your happy future?" a villain trying to throw his then betrothed into a volcano, the loss of his father by his best friend being controlled to kill him, and vaguely a loss of self at being told to do something that would hurt others (dragons).

    Those are the major memories to play with, but feel free to try to get a rise out of him too! Telling him to give up on others or taking away a choice are big ones. Pain isn't necessarily a motivator, but memories and morality are ways to go!

    I'd also be happy to have him help others eventually overcome it if you think he'd be helpful! But I'd like like to do the reverse of the cave for him this time :') Make him suffer a little.



    🐉 GENERAL WANTS/PLOTS
    - I'd love more CR with Kenoma! It certainly doesn't have to be anything positive. Bully him in the mindscape if you think it'll be fun. Or even find a commrodrie. I admit, I find the most juicy cross faction CR the would-be-friends-otherwise variety.
    - Investigation buddies/shenanigans?
    - Mindscape/communion things! Esp with other Visionaries since it'll be a rough time, but since Hiccup will probably be more mentally Loud during the event it's prime opportunity for anyone to tell him to shut up.
    - I just want you to all know you're cute and lovely.


    Feel free to PM me here, on discord, or plurk [plurk.com profile] hopewillbloom ! I've been slow/on hiatus due to some life stress, but I want to try to get as much as I can in!

    Liem Talbott | Kenoma | Champion

    [personal profile] sterngaze 2022-05-14 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
    EVENT PLANS
    Venera: Liem will be heading out right away to go see what's up with Venera's mysterious magic plague. This is for two reasons: one, he is of course there to help Venera's citizens as the Regent asked, and two, he's eager to get out of Achamoth! He's hoping to learn more about the Regent and Horos in general from somewhere with a less zealous and culty spin.

    Contagion: Since he'll be getting right in there and sticking his nose into everything he can, Liem is definitely going to contract the malady and get into sticky situations. He will also be available to help people who are in danger of spacing out and walking into traffic or something. He is not prepared to just ignore Pleromies who look like they need help, so this offer stands regardless of faction.

    Cure: It's more than likely that Liem will contract the malady multiple times before the sickness has run its course through the city, so he'll need to be bullied cured more than once for sure. He should also be available in between sicknesses to help other people. As an inquisitor, Liem has job experience making people feel bad and uncomfortable, so he should be effective!

    DESIRED CR/THREADS
    Liem needs friends! Kenoma buddies! Pleroma buddies! Liem needs both, so I am primarily focusing on non-hostile CR for this event. I want to get some proper CR in the works so Liem has people to give a shit about on both sides of the faction divide.

    Please rescue him! I'm talking about saving him while he's spacing out somewhere hazardous or while he's about to be mugged, or taking care of him after he's already been messed up (Can you bully such a pathetic man? You must.), either from injury or just not taking care of himself. This is the easiest way to get Liem to care about you. If you were nice to him at all, or weren't nice but still saved his butt, he will remember! I especially want Pleroma for this so he has people on the opposing side who he might consider disobeying the Regent for in the future.

    Dreamscape things! As above, but with dream shenanigans added in! Options range from peaceful and innocuous (An open road at night. A comfortable estate. A bank that is also a church.) to stuff that he will later regret you seeing (Maybe he mistakes you for a departed friend, or lover. Maybe he was hunting and you caught him mid-snack.).

    Let him help you out! Especially if it somehow goes sideways. Off the top of my head, he could potentially commune with someone to snap them out of their dream, and something in the real world blindsides him while he's distracted. Or if he tries to help someone who thanks him by attacking him, I wouldn't mind doing one thread like that.

    Research buddies! Non-sickness-related prompt! Liem still wants to try to learn more about Horos while he's in Venera. If someone else wants to do that too, they could possibly get into more ordinary adventures in the city during their search for knowledge.

    You can reach me on plurk at [plurk.com profile] Sporelett, or on discord if you want. I don't pop into the group discord very much, but I am available for 1 on 1 plotting!

    [personal profile] affal 2022-05-14 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
    i kept going back and forth on whether or not to put up a plotting comment but HERE THIS IS ANYWAYS just in case anyone wants to plan anything out around the below or any other thoughts or desires they might want! as a heads-up, i will be out of town and on vacation from may 15th through may 21st! i will have the ability to tag, but it will not be a very high priority (and i will probably only be focusing on threads that have high relevance for other characters' personal plots during this event). so i appreciate y'all's patience while im away, but im gonna be back and swingin' after i get back!

    both of my boys are going to be very fucked up by this event in very different ways, so... let's see what we got here:

    🩸 MAKOTO · KENOMA · FIREBRAND
    Being a Firebrand, Makoto is going to be especially targeted by the contagion of innocence, and his own personal stance against what its symptoms are will make him even more alarming of a threat for the illness to want to wear down. Almost more than anything — more than pain, more than death — Makoto dreads indolence and loss of personal agency. He actually actively denies himself certain things in order to keep himself driven and near-immune to the temptations of laziness and falling into contentedness with what he has. The effects are largely going to be physical (he's going to be very fucked-up looking from all of the cracking skin and feathered wings trying to overtake his draconic ones by force), but the mental/emotional toll it's going to have on him will be one of exhaustion and irritation as he fights tooth and nail 24/7 against what the contagion is trying to lull him into.

    Prior to the infection getting really bad, I'm open to any interactions with folks from the Kenoma or even the Pleroma as they rove around the city and investigate what's going on! He won't mind sharing information so long as it's mutually obtained.

    Later on, however, Makoto is going to be very irritable, nasty, and violent... What's really funny to me is that his natural reflex in this state (which is to be horrible to people and try to cause them the most physical and/or emotional pain possible) will IRONICALLY help cure them of the effects. So if anyone wants to (inadvertently) help get cured or rifle around in his various past traumas to get him back on his feet, I am super interested in all of that! PLEASE BE AWARE that these past traumas include various content warnings, so we might need to discuss options of what scenes your character might see before heading into them. :3

    💍 YUUTA · PLEROMA · LOVER
    Again, more than happy to dig into some cross-faction CR when first arriving into the city and taking a look around. (:

    Being a Lover, Yuuta is going to be highly susceptible to the innocence contagion. He will have comparatively fewer physical traits of the illness, but it will essentially manifest within him emotionally like his Big Time Depression making an aggressive come-back. And after he and all of his friends had put forth so much effort to get him past all of that...

    For Yuuta, I think he will still be aware that the way he defeated this particular internal enemy last time was by forming bonds with others. The contagion, however, is going to twist this to its own advantage, so as he instinctually seeks others out to try to help himself, he's going to end up spreading the contagion via touch and his own mental state... If there's anyone who needs to be innocenced further, that is an option! Another option is that he's desperately going to need people to help snap him out of it. If anyone is interested in some thoughts or memories of Rika before or during she died and became a big cursed monster, this would be a good opportunity...! That was a very Rough time for Yuuta and still difficult for him to recall.

    [personal profile] devilmancrybaby 2022-05-14 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
    jokes on YOU binghe was already indifferent to life

    No uh. He will be heading down to Venera to investigate, gotta be a good boy for the Regent!

    INVESTIGATION: He won't be aggressive to any Pleroma he runs into straight off the bat, and will be willing to cooperate with them on investigation... but if he gets a chance to throw them under the infection bus to avoid getting it himself -- or even just to see what will happen to them -- then he'll probably do it.

    INFECTION: I think it would be very fun to have him grow one big wing, that lines up exactly with his in-universe source material's edgy gratuitous bullshit. Maybe he'll keep it

    He will of course be extremely calm about all that shit gorily bursting out of him tho. I think he's probably going to get Excessive Malleability for a while, if you'd like to boss him around, and then eventually drift into daydreams about his idyllic xianxia sect mountain peak, torn thru with horrifying violent glimpses into the hell dimension he got trapped in for multiple years, because his Legacy is making this whole process janky

    CURE: Probably the best way to snap him out of that if you are so inclined would be to remind him about how his teacher who he is in love with threw him into the hell dimension, except that he has not, told anybody about that... whoops!!! Maybe you can make him remember it on his own if you ask him enough questions about the hell dimension. Or maybe you just want to leave him like that, that might be less hassle for everybody quite frankly

    heads up for this one: his daydreams will involve his memories of being in love with his adult teacher between the ages of 14 and 17. These feelings are completely unreciprocated during this time period but the resolution to Binghe's canon involves them getting together years later after a rigmarole of death and betrayal, so they are eventually validated. I understand if you'd prefer not to touch that! ✌️

    [personal profile] gravings 2022-05-14 01:09 pm (UTC)(link)
    I don't have anything super solid in mind, mostly planning to toss Gray at top-levels! She'll be wandering around Venera and obediently trying to figure out what's up with this mystery, as you might expect from someone who comes from a series of detective novels (allegedly). Things that come to mind:

    - As she is a filthy carrier of Innocent Cooties, she'll be infecting people... whoops
    - As far as physical symptoms, she'll be pale and feathery with a small horn
    - At the same time, she'll be beating back her shyness to question people both common and Aion to try and compile notes
    - She won't be trying to fight any Pleroma Aions unless incited
    - If someone wants to try to cure her, please do! Most effective methods will be smacking her around (though she may fight back) or crashing her mindscape (an old-fashioned lecture hall)

    If there's anything specific you want to do, let me know and let's jam. B)

    Kim experienced wing transformations all the way back during the first Kenoma ritual, so he'll likely exhibit some of those symptoms again. However, as strong willed as he is, he won't be susceptible to the mental effects of the contagion.

    He'll likely pick this up by going to snoop in Venera once he starts hearing the rumors in Godsblood. Even as he gets sick, his investigation skills actually proving useful to people in Horos is a huge motivator.

    Looking for: Pleroma investigation buddies, reunions with any cross-faction CR, and introductions to new players! I wasn't around for the last faction log, so I'd be happy to have Kim guide some newbies around. ALSO, MEMSHARE, WE DO IT

    Yuya Sakaki (Lover) + Syrlya (Champion) | Pleroma

    [personal profile] hippocarnival 2022-05-14 05:05 pm (UTC)(link)
    Yuya is going to have an awful time as one of the susceptible legacies. He'll get caught up pretty early when he realizes taking in the infection is actually helping people and then end up a zombie trying to infect everyone else and have to be broken out with his trauma. This will cycle multiple times until he's actually purged the final Innocence build up. Open ideas are:

    - Talking to Kenoma AND Pleroma peacefully: he's pretty firm in saving this world but he's also really inclined to try and get to know the people on the other side and discourage any fighting.
    - Infecting people
    - Daydreams: this he'll be doing a lot, featuring mostly his friends and family from home. Two people around his age (Yuzu, Gongenzaka) will feature heavily and he'll be most reluctant to stop experiencing visions of them.
    - Mindscape diving: Aside from trying to upset him in the waking world, diving into his worst memories to snap him out of it is an option. It's memshare but only the upsetting bits like being socially ostracized, his friends getting hurt, hurting people, almost destroying the world (twice). Most of the memories will feature at the age he's at now, when shit really hit the fan (canon happened).
    In between heavy infections when he's sane enough, he'll do the same for other people and feel really bad about traumatizing them.
    - Incidentally, do you want to talk about that horribly traumatic thing they just experienced? Yuya does.
    - May or may not go full statue, still deciding.


    Syrlya will generally be experiencing infection less acutely. His focus will be on trying to find and purging the source of it rather than just alleviating symptoms, but since he's the kind of person to Never Talk About Himself I'd love to steer his infection bad enough a couple times to need a shock to the mindscape. Open ideas are:

    - Uneasy alliances with Kenoma. Since he came in round two and didn't bond with them, this is going to be his first meeting for that side in general. He's extremely wary but realizes getting in a fight may not be the wisest course of action. He's watching you, though.
    - He will defend any Pleroma being accosted though (or civilians being grievously wounded or killed) so if anyone wants some PvP because they are being a bully that can happen.
    - Doing investigations into the source of the malady. Info sharing, getting into places they shouldn't, whatever might clarify what actually caused this.
    - Mindscape diving: This may be reserved for just 1-2 threads, but I am very here for people needing to jump in and use Syr's terrible life to cure him before he turns into a statue.
    He will also be Doing What Needs To Be Done in regards to upsetting other people once they realize that staves off the infection. And then they can just not talk about watching each other's traumatic memories, it's fine he's fine.

    [personal profile] everblooms 2022-05-14 08:15 pm (UTC)(link)
    my first event... saddling in late, but let's plot together ! ✨❤

  • VENERA Aerith will be heading out as soon as possible once word travels. She wants to help as quickly as possible and will be sticking her nose into everyone's business the moment she has the ability to. She's happy to work with Pleroma or Kenoma for this, or just meet Kenoma in general. She's curious to know what the other side of the pond is like, and is wondering how many people are hanging out over that could be in danger of any kind. (You can thank Childe for this concern.)
  • CONTAGION Resisting is what she does! Since she's Firebrand, though, this will be affecting her immensely once it's gets going and I'm considering going the full mile with body horror but with a religious horror lean; gimmie that halo, and the bloody wings. Aerith covets the ability to decide for herself and greatly values her freedom, so the contagion robbing her of her ability to do those things will settle extremely unwell with her. I'm happy to cook up some specific day dreaming stuff if people like; some basic ideas I have are mistaking people for Cloud and Tifa, but I would also love for people to find out about her late mother with this, too.
  • CURE Aerith's emotional trauma largely deals with isolation and loss, so arguably the best way to help her through the contagion would be to... do this further, hilariously. A particular idea I have occurs within canon; Aerith is so isolated from the kids she knew as a child that they forgot about her during a game of hide and seek. This cycle of isolation and abandonment was broken by Tifa after she and Cloud found Aerith during the game in the trainyard, but maybe it's time to perpetuate it...!! I'm picturing a big hide and seek game where ever ignores her...? lmao


  • Phew! I'm coming off a quick and unexpected break. RL has been hard, to say the least. I plan to hit up what's in my inbox right now, but if I'm threading with people on the plemie mingle and you want to handwave/wrap it up, please let me know. This is my first event in game, and I'm excited.

    I'm contactable here, PM or on plurk @ [plurk.com profile] hagclub, and I'm in the game discord channel, too!

    Childe | Firebrand | Kenoma

    [personal profile] vapour 2022-05-16 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
    I'm late but here's my contribution!

      ◆ VENERA } Childe will be wandering around talking to the locals and trying to get more information in general both about the lives of the locals and the contagion. Pleroma who approach him during this time will be complete safe despite him insisting to some they would be enemies next time they met and will assist or accept assistance in the search for clues. He is willing to exchange information freely about the contagion. If you want other Kenoma information be prepared to bribe the hell out of him and know when he's manipulating you.

      He thinks the Pleroma are ridiculously incapable of pulling off such a complicated (not to mention malicious) situation, so he won't really be looking at them as the cause of this at any point (unless a Pleroma would like to interact and make him really suspicious from their behavior somehow.)

      He's also going to spend money buying some of the locals' handicrafts. If anyone wants to shop or help him specifically pick out gifts for his siblings as well as his retainer, they can have a nice adventure before all the terrible starts happening! He appreciates cultures and the arts so it will be very important to him to support this city beyond just resolving the contagion issue for the Venerans.

      ◆ INNOCENCE CONTAGION }
      • Firebrand • Childe will war as much with the contagion as the contagion will with him so he'll be suffering a lot, but also not seeming to give a shit about taking it lying down also, his words are crossed enough that pain and pleasure are somewhat the same to him, so I guess watch out for that as well as that he'll very much be apathetic/indifferent with regard to life. Any wings and feathers he gets will be soaked in blood and probably twisted unnaturally like a spine being out of alignment. I will also be giving him the unicorn horn because his constellation is a narwhal and thus its perfect reference uhu. He (luckily) won't use it as a weapon, but it's definitely something you don't want to accidentally run yourself into during a fight if he's shorter than you or on the ground.

      He'll be very aggressively defensive, like a wounded animal, if anyone approaches him, and he will suffer from short term memory loss in the sense he literally won't trust anyone or know who is an ally vs enemy. He will remember everyone he's met and their interactions, but their allegiances will be blurry. He will also be unhinged mentally, but nothing you guys can't handle. It's small unhinging, at least relative to Childe's usual unhinging. Gotta save that stuff for a later time.

      I am completely open to anyone who wants to help cure him, but be ready for the ride of your life because he's going to fight you as much as he does the virus. He will give you a really hard time, but I am not against people using their powers on him or ganging up on him or severely injuring him either.

      I'm not expecting more than maybe one or two individuals interested, but if there are making it a group effort would be better a route to go. I don't think I can do more than one of of curing Childe prompt, so hopefully you guys will be okay with a multi character thread if more than one person is interested (I'm not expecting any actually, but maybe this is someone's jam!). Thanks for understanding ;O;b

      A not, if it's Pleroma who helps him or more than one he will consider him letting them each a favor they can cash in at a later time, up to and including stopping him from killing them or someone else. Use it wisely ayyee.

      As far as just encountering him and not curing him, though, all the threads are a go.

      ◆ THE CURE } see above if your interested in cutting Childe.

      Otherwise, once Childe is cured himself, he will happily make any and all of you miserable and tormented to help you out. He doesn't have even a tiny issue with that. So, if you want your character trashed to recover but their closer cr just isn't able to give the right amount of torture to it because they actually care about character a lot and have morals, Childe'll happily help anyone he comes across whether they like it or not.

    I'm also open to literally any idea you might be thinking of that Childe could fit into for your personal plans, so feel free to drop them on me!

    You can contact me via pm or discord chat if you prefer to discuss outside of this post. I have plurk but ATM I don't have it installed on my new phone so I'm missing all the notifs and i don't wanna miss anyone interested in cr.

    I am going to try to check other cr top levels here and comment, but I'm really busy the next three days so please forgive me orz. If you are at all interested in cr, definitely comment here even if it's just a link to your top level. It'd help me out while trying to finish my projects and I would really appreciate that c:
