Player Plots

Player plots are plots that have a large enough reach to require some sort of sign up, or would be difficult for those not directly involved to ignore, or need some sort of NPC/mod involvement.

Examples of player plots include:

Actions that would negatively affect 4-or-more PCs.

Death of a PC.

Death of a named NPC.

Death of more than 1 unnamed NPC at the same time.

Significant property damage.

A PC gaining powers as a result of aligning with a patron Entity.

Anything that could potentially expose the supernatural to the wider world.

Please submit player plots at least a week or two in advance of when you'd like to run it. In the event something happens suddenly that would escalate to a player plot, please let us know as soon as possible.

Just a handful of questions for my problem child, which seemed better suited for here than the FAQ since they could develop into a player plot.

1. MADDENING MUSIC. One of Jeff's goals is to get some regular music gigs, either by joining a townie band or by going at it as a solo singer-songwriter. He would use this as an opportunity to feed the Spiral here and there (not so regularly as to be totally obvious as the cause for the audience, at times, going WIIIIIILD, and he'd try to be subtle enough to have plausible deniability).

As ordinary folk, would his bandmates constantly meet unfortunate ends? Or would the fact that they'd be (unwittingly) serving the Spiral kind of keep them around and kicking longer? Would he even be able to find a place to regularly gig at, or would the, like, manager just get eaten by a monster.

2. MAGICAL PROGRESSION. Since magic is kind of fluid in his world, and only limited by the individual user's talent + their ability/desire to crack the magical code for whatever they're trying to do, would it be possible for Jeff to work on some new spells over time? I figure anything he learns would be influenced by the Spiral, but wasn't sure what all of the factors would be (if this is possible at all). Basically, he wants to work on upgrading his goofy FUN LIGHT SHOWS spell into actual illusions. Because what could possibly go wrong?

3. SUSPICION & CONSEQUENCES! Would this stuff plus his past issues following directions and getting obsessive over the mirrors AND occasionally mind whammying people while busking land him on the ADI's radar as a Potential Problem, or would he wind up attracting the attention of an Avatar in some way? I'm down for any consequences (I mean, short of straight up killing him and taking him out of play), especially since it's looking pretty likely he'll fall into the Avatar path before long, so mostly I'm just trying to figure out the timeline from here and what it might entail / how to fold it into upcoming events, etc.

I think that's all the questions I had, I'm sorry for this terrible bard
