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.

Player Name(s): Kates
Character(s) Involved: Cornelius Hickey
Dates: whenever!

Plot Type: PERSONAL (aligning with an entity & gaining a power)
Plot Summary: After spending literally three months chasing down literally every lead he can find and shaking down every supernatural entity he can get his hands on (to the point where he outright bothered an Avatar), the Hunt is realizing that this stubborn little bastard is a good fit and is claiming Hickey. Also, he got outright mauled by one of the White Things back in Wolf Pen.

POWER: Enhanced senses.

MANIFESTATION: Hickey's drive to chase down every lead he can find will be compounded, especially now that he's a much better tracker due to his power. It's not an Eye sort of 'I have to know what's causing this'. Knowing doesn't matter, what matters is finding the thing yourself, tracking it down, and getting what you want. Obviously there's a big ol'metaplot way for him to feed his Entity as it aligns super well with what ADI wants, but he could also feed the Hunt in smaller ways. If someone got mugged, finding the mugger would work (and then knifing said mugger in the back because it's Hickey).

Questions: none!

Hey, there! This all sounds good to us. We typically like to see some kind of specific inciting incident that will properly kick in Hickey's powers. Is there anything you have in mind for that? It doesn't need to be a big player plot (though, it can be, and this month would be great for something like that). It could be something as simple as Hickey and another character doing something in Dogtown or around Gloucester that has him inducing fear and suddenly realizing those burgeoning powers. There will also be an opportunity with next month's event to facilitate this. We can provide more detail as we head into October if that's of interest!

[friendsfordinner]

Let's go with a temporary 'wait until October,' with the caveat that I don't mind rushing this ahead of time if I thread this with someone or come up with a cool player plot.

EDITED TO ADD no, scratch all that, Hickey is going to do something that will incite fear (with Eda as the person watching and going "ohhhh no"), the inciting log will be here

Excellent. Thank you for the heads up!
