Event OOC: Predator Vs. Prey

[hadrielmods]

THE RUNDOWN

Rage is- well, angry, and what better way to express her anger than by blowing up Fear's temple? Fear was the one who should have been protecting Delight, after all, and so he should suffer, right?

Well, that's Rage's idea, and on March 13th, Fear's temple will be exploding, sending shrapnel and flames spewing out of the general area, so you might want to watch out for that! As a ramification, intended or not, the city will be divided into Predator- or rather, Rage's faction- and Prey- belonging to Fear.

Both factions have their corresponding god blessings for the duration of the event:

► Predators: Will have Battle Ready, a boost to physical strength and stamina. Pain is numbed and reflexes are faster, putting the user in an adrenaline-fueled state ideal for fighting and tracking down their prey.
► Prey: Will have Fear Itself, a power to create minor illusions, generally of things that their target fears. Only the intended target of this power can see the illusion, but it could be enough to distract your predator long enough to make an escape!

The predators in this event will be seeking to kill their prey, and the prey can respond however they wish- by running, hiding, or even turning the tables and trying to kill their hunters first.

On March 21st, everything will go back to normal!

THE DETAILS

This is an opt-in event! Predators are only interested in hunting prey- those who opt-out of the event are not targets.

Characters can work in groups or alone, and those who opt-out can always participate as well, by helping anyone on either side to achieve their goals of murdering or- you know, not being murdered. The blessings will start off at full strength, but in the final 3 days of the event (March 19th-21st) they will begin to wind down, operating on less and less power as the energy from the explosion finally dissipates. All blessings will be gone at the end of the event.

Any deaths that happen as a result of this event will be revived by Hope shortly thereafter, and whether or not you want your character to still be affected post-revival (or if you'd like them to swap sides) is up to you!

THE OVERVIEW

► March 13th: Rage destroys Fear's temple
► March 21st: Everyone goes back to normal

Awesomeness. That will not do one (1) single thing to increase her nearly overwhelming thing for Sharon one bit. ;)

Also, Mariane will be influenced by Fear and fighting it. So far, I have her guarding the Clinic, but I'd love for another thread between the two.

[itsnotaonesie]

lmao yooooou came at a weird time pete SORRY

but yes this sounds like a delightful idea, come at me bro

[thanks_bunches]

Hey! I would definitely be interested in Geralt killing Lucretia, I like the awkward idea of this being their first interaction. He will be devastated afterwards because, wow rude Geralt!

Do you have any ideas of how you want her to be killed? Geralt, being a Witcher has a wide variety of horrible skills.

[itsnotaonesie]

hell yes gonna kick pyramid head square in the balls for funsies. MAN i keep forgetting we have a Silent Hill zone, maybe hell roll up in there near the end of the event?

[toiletseat_girl]

OMG. DO IT DO IT DO IT. It will likely backfire spectacularly but I now need this in my life. And him hitting it up near the end works for me!

[madamdirector]

Awesome! And yes, it's very rude.

Lucretia will fight back, and is a very powerful wizard herself - her big Thing is a giant fuckoff shield spell, so actually taking her down will probably be a challenge. Anything that's...not like anything in D&D and could take her off guard would probably be a good option? Unfortunately I don't know Witcher at all and just barely know D&D.

[toiletseat_girl]

Laura and Elena haven't hung out in way too long. And since Laura will be influenced by Rage, we could get some mayhem on and maybe an injury?

[toiletseat_girl]

I had been leaning more towards having Tinya be influenced by Rage, but. This makes having her influenced by Fear (and better yet, getting to watch Will get killed and be powerless to do anything to stop it) much more appealing and it mashes my angst button perfectly.

[hot_mes]

I'll make sure Law doesn't slice off any weapons, then. Unless she can repair them easily but man he doesn't hold back...

Lance

[lifetothefullest]

So I think Lance will be unaffected, but he will also be totally attempting to break up any murdering that might happen as well as assisting at the Clinic while all this nonsense is going on.

So far the only plans I have are for him to get into a scuffle with Nate at some point, but otherwise he's available for plotting if you need someone to intervene in a fight, help a character out afterwards, etc etc. He's a lot better a fighter than he lets on, and also has the help of a gun and some magic.

[shithefuckup]

it's. probs gonna be one heck of a first meeting, but I'm interested for Zack to die by Alphys's hands!!

[itsnotaonesie]

if he gets stabbed by pyramid head he deserves it ok

[onlyanautomaton]

/grabby hands

[sciencelizard]

she has like four or five and I think she'll probably only have two on at a time, so like, I'm down for going Very All Out On This Thing as long as Alphys doesn't die haha

[sciencelizard]

oh my god that would be SO MUCH but like, I'm down for it if you are! she'll have to reach out after and be. so sorry about it HAHA

[toiletseat_girl]

Speaking of being stabbed. . . Reapers can heal any wound inflicted on them, from having limbs torn off (as long as the limb isn't destroyed and is returned to its original location) to being skewered. If we wanted, we could really go for some body horror here.

Mettaton

[mttbrandlegs]

Keepin it simple here. Mettaton is going to be a Predator and thus hunt down any Fear dudes and dudettes so as to commit many murders. This is honestly an event I think I can sink my teeth into!

I may post, but I'll probably focus on tagging out! Please let me know if you want my boy anywhere!

Also, after a day or two, I'm going to post the backdated Leg Con thing I've been waiting on, I just felt weird posting it in conjunction with an event like this, backdated or not. |D

[mttbrandlegs]

Ok but can Metta just be her pal. Can they just be the end fight in Jurassic World and fuck everyone up with their fucking TEETH magic?!?!

I need this in my life. Let them BOND.

Except Mettaton may or may not admit he's mortified later haha what.

[mttbrandlegs]

Look.

I just want to slide this across the table to you. Gently.

[Slips u a 20 in currency of choice]

Can Mettaton attempt to kill Ignis. I don't remember if they've met before, they probably have. But can he just. Try and fuck Ignis up anyway.

YOU SEE, THIS IS HOW I HAVE TO RP WITH YOU I'm so bad.

[judgementor]

They have met before, once, quite a while ago!

I'm up for it~~

[itsnotaonesie]

okay new plan

pull george's leg off and smack pyramid head in the nuts with THAT


I'm kidding but hell yes I'm SO down for making this absolutely horrible

[nonscriptum]

oh like you've never killed people before

[fogsong]

Oh, George! Her crush is so sweet and Sharon is going to feel entirely unworthy once she totally catches on.

And I'd be down for Rhys and Mariane to do something. He'd be happy to help her out. Everyone could use a spirit mage in their party!

[hot_mes]

It shall be done! He just wants to be Done he doesn't want to kill today.

[hadrielmods]

They'll receive the mark of the god's blessing, but that's it!
