[OOC] The Five Senses

[Pezzle]

Sounds good @jerkchicken I'll get started on it tomorrow.

Glad to hear you are feeling better @Fetzen! Take it easy. No need to rush :)

[Fetzen]

@Pezz570 I think I still owe you an answer with regard to your question why the clan member has been grinning all the time. Well, it originally wasn't in my mind, but I really like the idea of the dagger having been poisoned somehow. So if you'd like to see Týfurkh slowly being flattened by that poison (and ultimately maybe even being abducted ?) I'd be completely open to arranging something :)

@Fetzen

Abducted That's an interesting story line to tread. Any particular ideas for how you would like it to play out if we go that route. If you get captured, then most likely they would place you in a dark room overnight and force you to submit to the insight's influence.

[Fetzen]

Sounds very reasonable for the cult. However wouldn't that most likely change his allegiance? Or at least cause some rather massive damage? Or would he be able to find an escape route somehow?

Feel free to PM me if you don't want to spoil things!

[Pezzle]

So, who would like the honor of smashing the candle, thus putting an end to the first half of this Arc?

[Pezzle]

So chicken PMed me and said he would be fine with smashing the candle in his next post if everyone else is down. Is that okay with everyone else? @Jerkchicken, @Fetzen, @13Org, @HokumPocus

[HokumPocus]

Can I slap a quick post in beforehand?

[Pezzle]

Go for it!

[13org]

@Pezz570
Fine by me.

Honestly I was a bit unsure on what to do after the confront with Tayla as pretty much everyone else was busy with their own battles XD

[Pezzle]

Sorry about that Org.

Lol, now I'm picturing Karina sitting there just twiddling her thumbs. "Are you boys done yet??? No? Okay, that's fine by me... Because look at these thumbs gooooooooooo!"

Lol actually, that seems more like a Sil thing.

[Jerkchicken]

Well I'm fine if someone else smashes the candle, I just figured if no one wanted to I might as well add it to my post.

[13org]

@Pezz570

Not your fault! a bit of a writer's block here XD

[Pezzle]

I think you got this chicken! Just let our dear friend HokumPocus finish his post first.

[Jerkchicken]

I'll be pm you my response later today.

[Pezzle]

Sounds good!

[Pezzle]

Happy Turkey Day to all you here who celebrate this delicious holiday!

[Pezzle]

Alrighty. So Chicken an I are almost done. He's about the smash the crystal, It will probably be a short post. Afterwards, here's what will happen:

• I'll do a plot point showing what happens after smashing Crystal Jade (FYI, breaking crystal Jade takes a good amount of force)
• I'll do a Chres post immediately after. This may be combined with the plot point
• I'll allow everyone to make some last few quick posts involving everyone's escape. I'll give everyone a week or so for that.
• After the escape. I'll make a Plot point to wrap things up.
• I'll make an interlude plot point

---

From here, we can do a few things and I'll want everyone's input on this. @Jerkchicken, @Fetzen, @13Org, @HokumPocus, @elevation

A) we can do a two weeks of collab interlude posts with interactions between characters to add character building. (This could be done before or after the interlude plot point)

B) We can start a new Thread for the next half of the story's arc in an effort to attract fresh people (Though a better time for this may be after the arc is finished)

C) We can pick up the second half of the Arc immediately after the escape or have it take place a few days later (I'm leaning towards the latter option so we can skip boring Intel searching)

D) If we decide to skip ahead a few days, for the second half, I would like to collaborate together to decide what occurred with everyone's character during days that will have passed.

---

If anyone has any additional ideas for progression, I'm all ears. Thanks to Fetzen, I have a solid foundation of an idea for how this next half will progress initially, but there are a few details which are fuzzy.

If you have any bit of story for your character which you would like to add to the story progression, let me know. If you have any questions, I'll be happy to answer :)

@Pezz570

I like the idea about character development collabs. :-)

[Jerkchicken]

B sounds fine when we get to it. But the topmost option is fine too.

[Pezzle]

Cool beans, We'll do a bit of A then. There is one issue with that option however, I just remembered that Fetzen and I discussed having his character be poisoned and captured.

So if we do that option A, I may have to do something special with Fetzen. Which could be fun. So basically, one of the things we discussed would be that he would be imprisoned with a bunch of other people. Some of who will have tried to over throw the Cult in the coming days. Others who will have been imprisoned earlier. Anyway, he will be trying to get those prisoners to start an uprising or something with him.

If anyone wants to rp temporarily as some of those characters, that would be fun. If not, I could work with him on it. Any ideas?
