Event Post: Dead Ringers
THE RUNDOWN
THE DETAILS
THE OVERVIEW
Seeing as to how Confusion and Fear are both glorified internet trolls, it's no surprise that they would team up so quickly to snag a little extra power here and there. Unfortunately, this extra power is going to be at the expense of you all, and it'll probably look pretty familiar...
On January 16th, the city will be flooded with doubles of each (opting-in) character. These doubles aren't a fighting army or anything like that- instead, they're sneaky, duplicitous, and out to ruin the lives of the original. They have all the same memories and abilities as their originals, but their purpose will be to cause hardship and ruin the lives of their originals. They'll do this in any way possible- from simple things like fighting with their best friend, to more drastic things, like hurting someone or destroying something that the original loves.
While they don't necessarily have to be violent, it only makes sense that they would try to remove their original from the picture through murder or imprisoning them somewhere. The more the doubles can give off the impression that nothing out of the ordinary is going on, the more effective they can be- and so any confrontation with their original is ideally going to be alone, where others can't see them. Due to this, it may take some time before the ordinary citizens realize that anything is going on... and by then, it might be too late.
Can you kill someone who looks identical to you? Can you trust anyone, when your best friend may actually be out to kill you and your roommate might be secretly planning to set your bed on fire?
THE DETAILS
Each player will play both their own character and their double for the event. If the double kills the original, then they will have the pleasure of playing an evil clone until the event is over! Doubles will not have network access on their own, but after they've... taken care of the originals, they can use their phones and network ID to continue sowing discord that way.
Additionally, all doubles will be able to recognize one another. Whether they use this to plot among themselves or simply to easier isolate the non-doubled targets is up to you!
Hope will be unable to resurrect the originals (if they die) until January 25th, which signals the end of the event. If the original managed to kill their clone, then they have nothing to worry about- if the original wasn't quite so lucky and the double lived on until Confusion's disbanding, then the originals may come back to live with the memories of what their double had done, though that's up to the player!
THE OVERVIEW
► January 16th: The doubles infiltrate the city, intent on taking the place of their originals or ruining their lives some other way.
► January 20th: By now, it's fairly obvious that Hope isn't resurrecting any of the dead originals!
► January 25th: Confusion finally sends the clones away, leaving Hope free to resurrect the dead remaining in the city. The event is over, and the originals may gain the memories of what their clones did in their absence.
Alphys
So the deal with Alphys, for the canonblind, is that she has a looot of past mistakes she is trying to sweep under the rug. After getting appointed Royal Scientist, she ended up doing lots of secret experiments and, long story short, causing a bunch of near-death monsters to have their bodies literally melt into amalgamates of multiple monsters. On top of that she literally dragged someone's soul back from the dead and trapped them in a flower (see: asriel's entry), which she... does not even know she did at this point. It should be stressed this was all an accident, but Alphys takes it very hard, and in her time right before Hadriel, also accidentally lead her best friend to his death, and killed herself by throwing herself off a waterfall's edge.
naturally, of course, this has aaaaaall been a secret... that her double will be wanting to expose, because as soon as Alphys knows people know her secrets, she'll take care of herself =) so Alphys' double will be utterly remorseless, and while Alphys can't really fight (and therefore her double likely won't be doing much killing), she knows her words will hit her where it matters, and will likely be seeking out her close CR and anyone she can get her hands on, really, to spill Alphys' dirty secrets. While she isn't strong, she won't be going down without a fight if attacked, and will use a variety of electricity-based magic and bombs.
SO TL;DR ALPHYS IS GOING TO NEED. SOME HELP. because the chances of her beating her double are about a negative seventeen and her instinct will basically be to wander off and let a monster eat her because good golly she has no coping mechanisms even resembling recovery
double tl;dr send Help
(also I'll likely be using the account

Although Rey is understanding of having Done Bad Things, she is also a Freak Nature of Science herself so this could be interesting. But I'd love to do something either way. I love Alphys.
