hey, door squad, got a question for you!

After asking the mods, I've been given permission (if I want) to have Kate boost the Door's madness effects temporarily during the battle. And kill her but y'know, that shit happens when you try to fuck with an ancient god's powers for the second time.

Basically, this would be similar to the kind of wave that happens when a god dies, except it's crazy instead of an emotion and it would effect everyone, Null and Hadrielite alike. (To quote the mod response: It would be temporary, but powerful, and it would push the Null back and confuse the ones within its effective range, making them easier targets. Unfortunately, it would effect everyone, so she might want to warn her fellow defenders first.)

Due to the effects it would have on characters I wanted to use this post to check if anyone had any objections to this happening (I'd place it happening sometime between 13 and 19 hours, i.e. after Sorrow is injured but before Rey blows the staircase) before saying for sure!

(And, also, to use this post as a kind of heads up so people can tailor their tags accordingly if everyone is okay with it.)


Decided this isn't happening, please disregard!

i hate to party poop because chaos is usually really fun, but i put a character in there who's going to be struggling already with the default, more flexible madness effect (which i wanted to play with, it sounded like just the right amount of crazymaking to be fun) and would be extremely opposed to this as a plan icly. which could be great if there were time for fallout but if this had been part of the write up i wouldn't have signed him up for the door group, because it'd be traumatic and actually detrimental to his fighting with no time for resolution after.

if the rest of the door squad is up for this, a character or two missing likely won't change the outcome of this fight so i can change plans and ask about switching locations. if it's a bunch of people that might wind up a problem, though, so i figured i'd comment so we can get a head count?

Kinda in the same boat here. Much as Rey would want to deal a blow to the Null and use what they've got to their advantage, she also wouldn't want to take that risk at the cost of compromising the fighters on their own side since she's already gonna be trying to do some damage control for those affected by the Door's madness. Making it go Mega Mad would piss her off even more.

It also sounds like it might affect her mental state and ability to blow out the stairs, and there's no way to avoid this from affecting her as she's already trying to fight the Door's influence, so I'd personally rather avoid this conflict altogether.
