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.

Helping Hands (George and Co.)

[apocalypsehowmods]

Bringing this over from the Mod Contact for Linds.

Due to George's efforts to stand up to Greta Thomas and the people who want an ordinance outlawing sleeping on public property, the people at Helping Hands and the people they help would be targeted by supernatural forces in the form of eye-based graffiti that would enhance paranoia and distrust in buildings it's painted on and various cursed objects left near those people for them to find and suffer to. George and co. would, of course, be welcome to try to find and remove/destroy the things causing problems and help those afflicted. The cursed objects are something we'd love to collab on for brainstorming. We have a few ideas, but would love to hear the group's. As an example:

X-ray Ring (mod suggestion): A ring that looks like it has an eye on the top of it where a gem would be set. Putting it on grants the wearer X-ray vision, but in the process, it inflicts increasing levels of pain on the eyes over the course of several days up to the point that even opening the eyes becomes excruciating. The ring cannot be removed once put on. The only way to get rid of it is to sever the finger it's on.

Glass Evil Eye Pendants (Linds suggestion) - Attract bad luck and negative interactions to any carrying them or who have them displayed in their office or homes.

Hallucination Glasses (Linds suggestion) - Supposedly from a charity for people who can't afford eye wear, they cause progressively worsening vision with hallucinations of terrible creatures just at the corners of the eyes. Taking them off stops the hallucinations, but the vision degradation is permanent.

We would ideally have this plot culminate in George and co tracking down the culprits causing these problems in December when we have a particular event planned.

Players are welcome to brainstorm additional cursed items and ideas for this and propose actions they might like to take to track the culprits. This plot will play out over several months purely for metaplot and event-spacing reasons, so please take that into consideration when identifying specific things your characters would or could do. We might chime in to suggest a particular idea take place later in the course of the plot or ways to make it work so that it's not an insta-solution. Players are also welcome to play out their efforts and run any afflicted NPCs, themselves.
